Amazing!  Isn't it?  To be fair, the constructs and the fact you don't
need line numbers helps a lot to make it usable.  It still has a hokey
syntax, though.

I think LISP would be great!  How about "LISP++"?  :-)

If we can't get LISP, I'd be happy with a good PL/I compiler.  :-)

   Since debugging is a long and not easy process under windows imagine the
   time it takes using tc++. I am using C quite a lot but I am considering
   using Pascal now..
   Any comments?, Differences with TC++3.1 or MSC7.0?

I own MSC/C++ 7.0 and TC++.  In the default state the TC++ compiles
much faster, but produces much larger and slower executables.  Using
optimizations available in MSC and precompiled headers, etc. I have
been able to compile much faster than the default TC++.  This faster
compile produces even larger and slower executables than TC++ did.  My
system is faster than the PS/2 and speed of the normal default compile
is acceptable to me.

Often Pascal systems are not true compilers, they merely "compile" to
byte-code which is interpreted at runtime.  This is similar to what
most BASIC "compilers" do.  MSC allows you to generate byte-code
instead, but most people only do it for size, not compile speed.

I suspect that you may not be using the precompiled headers, even
though you have generated them.  Also if the compiler needs to look at
several directories to find the include files it may take extra time.
Another trick you can try is to create a RAM disk if you have enough
memory.  You can either put the compiler or the temporary files on the
RAM drive.  Either will significantly speed up the process.

In looking at the execution speed, the only theory that comes to mind
is that because your drive is so slow, it actually takes the extra
time to load the larger executable produced by the C compiler.  My
theory is that the Pascal "compiler" produces a small byte-code file
which requires a large DLL and the DLL is already loaded in Windows
(from a previous run of this or another Pascal program).

Good Luck!

There are several.  The easiest and most informative is WinTach.
WinBench, by PC Labs, gives more detailed results, but does so in
terms of Windows API calls, not statistically weighted application
benchmarks like WinTach.  Both are available on cica.

Gregg, I have heard mention of a shareware utility called winbench.
There is also a  Winspeed shareware that evaluates your windows on video

Friend of mine is running Win3.1 in 386 enhanced mode with 2MB RAM on
a 386sx @ 16MHz.  While it is not entirely desirable, he is able to run
all types of apps with no problems (just can't run more than two at a time).

It's possible you might be having some additional memory conflicts.  What
type of mem drivers do you have installed?  I would even try a different
video mode.  Go through the DOS setup and make sure everything looks okay.

  How about  handle = open(...);

Supposedly, fdopen works in Windows. (I haven't tried it). It may give you

The permanent swapfile created by Win 3.1 is used to provide additional
memory for your Win environment (virtual memory in this case).  The size
is completely dependent on amount of on-board RAM and disk availability.

The size of disk does not affect the size of swapfile--unless you have
no diskspace. :-)

=======================================
Hi, Bill,
That works perfect. I nerver used fdopen before. Apparently, under the
Windows programming environment, the append mode of "open" function
doesn't work, but that mode of "fopen"(so "fdopen") does. I tried sveral
times, that is it.

Thanks a lot for help.

I compiled up the \borlandc\owl\exampl31\aclock demo the other day and ran
it just fine. I then deleted the symbol file (.sym) and ran it again. It
complained about the above file not being found but ran OK. Recompiled.
Try again. With sym file it's OK w/out it gives the error but runs. I
have \borlandc\bin in my path as well as \win31 (of course). I checked.
There is no DLL of this name on my system. (BC++ 3.1 + AF  - The "works" ).
Now I suppose I could have lost this file; (I have had some problems with
SSTOR - you may have seen my other postings......). I can't (and *shouldn't*)
keep 0.5Mb sym files hanging around.

Any ideas? RTM's ?

Hello,

In regards to your choice between TC++ and BC++, TC++ for Windows is
actually part of the BC++ programming environment.  If you were to buy
the whole BC++ package (along with Application Frameworks), you can choose
to just install the Window's portion of the package.  In other words,
you don't need 50 megs of free space if you just want to program in the
Window's environment.

Anyone have this problem before me?

We are installing Netware 3.11 on all machines in our computer lab.
All non-386 machines run windows fine, but our 386's (all
Gateway 386/25's) cannot run windows in 386 Enhanced mode.

Real mode and Standard mode work fine, but when trying to run in 386 mode,
the title screen shows up, but then  the screen switches back to text mode
(cursor flashing in top left corner) and the machine just sits there.

We have followed the instructions in the Windows manual and in the
Windows Resource Kit for installing Windows on a Novell server, including
the specific instructions for using 'setup /n' to install the *.ini files
(and others) onto the specific workstation, but to no avail.  We have not
yet tried installing Windows 3.1 (we are currently using 3.0) on any of the
machines, but that will probably be tried this weekend.

Our configurations are as follows:

Gateway 2000 386/25
4MB Ram
120MB Western Digital IDE Hard drive
3COM 16-bit ethernet cards (specifically not using IRQ 2, because Novell said
    that was a conflict with windows)
Diamond Speedstar SVGA cards w/1MB

Pls. reply to this me personally, and I will post the result.

Thanks in advance

Khoi,

Win is simply telling you that it noticed that an app is already using
COM2.  It noticed another app, the one you are starting, tried to take
control of COM2 also.  Win is giving you a choice to choose which app
you want to have control over COM2.  Win is preventing a crash from
two apps using COM2 at the same time.

Seems your problem stems from an app that still has control of COM2
that you are not aware of when you start your other comm app.

In the NT development kit compatibility list says that it is`
currently compatible with the Blaster and Blaster Pro.  In the
July pre-release only SCSI CD-ROM drives worked. So I think that
if you are considering buying a Blaster Pro you should also take
a look at other boards that come with the SCSI adapter.

Re:  Running Trash can only when file manager is called.

If you have any DOS _emulator_ running, which can call Windows applications at
the C prompt, and which supports some kind of batch files, run a batch file
like filecan.bat as follows:
                             WINFILE.EXE
                             TRASHCAN.EXE

Then go to the program manager (or whichever shell you are running), select
file manager (one click), call File, Properties, and change Command Line from
WINFILE.EXE to FILECAN.bat (if that is the name of the batch file).

Of course, that requires you are running some sort of Windows-based batch
support program.  I know of Imposter, and Wincli (I may be wrong with the
latter's name, though).

Cheers,

Sure. Once you create a loginscript for a user you can use it again
(and again ....). That is if you use SYSCON to create your users.

1. Start syscon.
2. select user.
3. select loginscript.
4. if no loginscript exists you 'll be prompted for the which you
loginscript you want to edit. Type the usersname who's loginscript
you want to copy.

Mark the line (or block) with F5.
Press the DEL key.
Press F5.
Press the INS key (to get your lines back).
