No. TP only produces EXE or TPU files. (TPU is a special format file that
allows the compiler to execlude unused code from linked in units)

>Is there a provided TP .lib to support TP builtins?

I'm not sure that I understand this. But no, there's no .lib file.

>Can one call TP routines from turbo C?

I beleive it can be done but all I remember of what I was told about
it was that it was *real strange*. On the other hand, you can link in
any .obj file just by doing $L name.obj. You do have to follow a few
simple rules about segment names, but that's it.
