The "Printer" icon under "Control Panel" allows you to specify what
printer is active and what its target is.  Along with COM1, COM2, etc,
there is a FILE:  option to target output to a file.  Does this meet
your need?

I had a similar problem with my machine.  If you are using DOS 5.0,
try to install Windows without HIMEM.sys and EMM386.sys active.  Do a
REM on both of these drivers in your config.sys.  Install Windows and
then put the statements back.

Let me know if this solves your problem.

This question has been asked enough times that it deserves a post to the
list, as well as a specific reply to the author. I have seen this
question asked about every type of drive in existence. Not to shout, but
STACKER WILL WORK ON ANY TYPE OF DRIVE, REGARDLESS OF ITS TECHNOLOGY. I
have personally installed it in IDE, SCSI, and MFM drives, with the same
level of success in every case.

Stacker is simply a space manager with a few wrinkles.  In this regard,
it is basically no different from a database manager, in that it
establishes a giant file, and manages the contents of that file.  The
fact that the file contents are made to appear as other files is simply
one of Stacker's neat wrinkles.  Obviously, its compression capabilities
and its ability to mimic a partition label to DOS are its other two neat
wrinkles.

Stacker is truly an install and forget utility, and is inherently
somewhat beautiful in that regard.  On all of the systems in which I
have installed Stacker (to date over three dozen), I have never had any
trouble.  Tuning QEMM, on the other hand, can cause gray hair.

Even if you have a 2 gigabyte disc drive, get Stacker, because noone
ever has enough disc space. I have a 200MB SCSI drive on my personal
486, and a 120MB IDE drive in my notebook -- both use Stacker, and even
with it, both are almost full.

Let me add a note of support for Vance's recommendation.  The Visual
Basic approach is the way to go.  Another nice thing about this solution
is the fact that Visual Basic supports the invokation of subroutines
from dynamic link libraries, and those subroutines can be written in the
language most appropriate for the task.  Thus can use C or C++ to
support sophisticated subsystem tasks by providing them in DLLs and call
them from your Visual Basic program.  You don't have to deal with the
esoteric collection of display APIs, and aren't limited to only the
capabilities of the Visual Basic language and its particular
optimization capabilities.

Subject:      Logical Bitmap Combinations Question

mswin30/31 has 256 posssible ternary logical operations when using
bitmaps with the bitblt family of bitmap handling routines.
The API has 16 of these listed. ( Defed as Long Integers)
I want to take a bitmap and overlay that bitmap onto a bitmapped
background without "disturbing" the background except for the
"visible parts of the bitmap" ie I don't want to overlay a SQUARE icon
onto a nice colorfull bitmap when I can just overlay the intersting parts.
I can do this (using the 16 API operations) using a black and white mask,
and a master bitmap using four bitblt operations.
Surely this can be done in two operations or 1 with patblt.
Unfortunately, I dont know what all of the other 240 ternary ops do
because there is no documentation. I suppse one or two of these would
solve my problem.
If you know how I might solve my problem please send me the solution
at c461384@mizzou1.

P.S. 4 bitmap ops are wastefull, and during on screen XOR the icon
flashes unappeallingly. I'd rather not do this process off-screen
and copy to the screen. In repetitive tasks this is unacceptable.

Thank You for your bandwidth.

Well people, I finally found the problem and solution...

The problem:  The Windows 3.1 Hercules driver is BROKEN.

The solution:  Use the Windows 3.0 Hercules driver.

I haven't contacted Microsoft yet (Hate making phone calls! No matter
how good the customer support lines are), but I will make an attempt
someday. So for you netters stuck with a 286 and Hercules, I hope that
this might help.

Well, I can't recommend the Diamond Stealth.  I've had some problems with
mine, and if I could exchange it for something else, I probably would.  Their
video drivers have some irritating conflicts with software such as Word for
Windows and Persoft's SmarTerm 420.

Programmer takes time to analyse the actual requirement of user (e.g. the
mostly used data / program type) and build a suitable/powerful real-time
data-compression algorithm.
Compression is not a standard feature of OS since it is still well under
development. Although mature product like stacker, superstor is on the market
it still take time to test their stability. We have seen demand-paging and
mutli-threaded preemptive mutli-tasking for a long time but mature product
like Solaris from Sun is just emerging now. The same is happening to data
compression.
The one to blame is DOS, not the drive. DOS provides a simply personal working
environment. It's single-task working environment is not adequate for any
serious jobs. Most sophisticated OS now has their own special file system
e.g. the file table hierarchy in Unix and the HPFS in OS2. All these require
the user the synchronize the file system before turning the system down.
However, DOS user is accustomered to turning power on and off at his own will.
(My sister still turn off my PC after playing tetris in window, leaving a lot
of temp file in my /temp dir). Even when DOS user is willing to run file system
synchronization before power down, the unstability of DOS and its limitation to
handler mutlitasking properly halts the computer (I still needs to reboot my
PC one/two times everyday with Win3.1 , though much better than DOS/win3.0)
Under such environment user has no choice but to turn it off.
It is this unstability of DOS that hinder the integration of a high performance
file system and file compression into it. Think about it: after an hour's work
you finish a very urgent document . Once you "save" it and is ready to print
to you BOSS, the machine suddenly halts. When you turn your computer on again
you find the file has been lost! It may due to the delay-write for a HPFS
or the file is still under compression when the computer halts!!
Thus file compression will only be integrated into a file system/OS only when
the OS can handle mulitasking and is stable by itself.
Actually I really doubt why there isn't any product like superstor/stacker for
Unix, which is far more suitable in using file compression that the monster DOS

Andy Booth,

I believe it was you who was wondering why we could not run an EGA or VGA
DOS app under Windows (if not, I don't know who), but I quote from Brian
Livingstons' _Windows 3.1 Secrets_:

	You cannot run a DOS high-resolution graphics application
	in a window under any circumstances.

I always though you could run a VGA app in a window by the response I got
from the error message.  Turns out that error message is incredibly
misleading.  And to make it quite clear, you can VIEW a high-resolution
DOS app in a window, but it's simply going to sit there until you run it
full-screen--it ain't going to run.

More info?  Reference pp. 250-251.

trying and not from an explanation from the manufacturer. I also
have not just stacker for two month now, so everything is from
memory.

The stacked drive is a hidden file on the nonstacked drive. If
you just boot from a harddisk that would be drive C. The stacked
drive (the file) is then drive D. You would use a swap-utility to
swap the two driveletters, so that everything looks normal. While
booting command.com gets loaded from the uncompressed drive, then
the driveletters get swapped and afterwards any access to
command.com goes to the stacked drive. Any file which is for
booting and exists on both drives (autoexec.bat config.sys etc)
must be identical, so that the swapping of the drives does not
matter!

For compatibility the stacked drive has a FAT, but the FAT is
more or less meaningless. Any diskacess is intercepted and
handled by the stacker-devicedriver. Any program which tries to
figure out the physical location of a file from the FAT and then
tries a direct access of the location with low-level calls must
fail! It will do serious damage to the stacker drive.

There are two problems with stacker. First it cluster-size is 8
KByte. The FAT is a table with on entry per cluster. Lets assume
a 80 Kbyte stacked drive (just for explanation). The FAT has
then 10 entries. The physical size of the drive is only 40 Kbyte.
If you want to store a 15KByte file you need 2 table entries and
the stacker has to compress the file to less then 8 KBytes. If
that does not work (assume the files is a zip file) in the FAT 2
entiries are marked but the physical space for the files is more
then 8 KBytes. CHKDSK would tell you that 64 KBytes are still
available, but only 25 KBytes physical or 50 KBytes logical are
really availble. Stacker works by assuming that on the average it
gets along with 50% compression and/or the extra space from the
large clusters.

It will fail miserably if somebody has a lot of compressed files
on the disk (e.g. zip zoo lzh ...). Gif files are also not very
compressable. And all files compressed with something like pklite
are of cource uncompressable. A lot of the PC Tools 7.1
executebles are compressed with pklite!

To test this create a large (5MBytes) compressed file (e.g. a zip
file) and start duplicating it. You will see how the free-numbers
from chkdsk and dir start to differ.

Hope this info helped
