Does this mean that Windoz is dead?Despite my complaints, it's does some cool stuff. I stole almost all the WinMan's OOP ideas from Windoz. > I suggest that the same may be true for your DOS gui, as well. > Please put your time into the WinLib. I think there is some room for a graphical DOS toolkit - but certainly, nothing as grandiose as I had initially envisioned for WinMan. I don't think that anyone will set out to code a DOS program with Dos32Lib. But perhaps they would port to it if the API matched Win32Lib. I plan to allot my time accordingly. -- David Cuny
