Watcom has the following targets:
Dos 16
Dos 32
Windows 16
Windows386 (Watcom extender for win16)
Win32
AutoCAD
Novell
QNX
Watcom can create protected mode dos programs (32bit) and with the 4GW
engine. .. So yes many of the games where created with Watcom - some of them
also with djgpp (where 4GW also worked!)
