My screen froze at the windows opening flag until I excluded region
B000-C7FF from QEMM60 in config.sys.  Then the drivers - I tested each -
worked fine.  I have trident 8900c cards.

9.4  Hercules Graphics Station

Hercules Graphics Station adapters are supported by Windows version 3.1
using the TIGA display drivers. If you encounter problems running
Windows in 386 enhanced mode with the Hercules GS, try adding the
following line to the [386Enh] section of your SYSTEM.INI file:

        emmexclude=C000-CFFF

For more information about modifying settings in the SYSTEM.INI file,
see the SYSINI.WRI online document.

I posted on this question before, but Hebrew U's feed went bad for
several days so I couldn't read your responses.
I installed the Trident svga drivers and tried each one - each
number of colors and each resolution.  All made my windows 3.1
freeze up.  Whenever I switched back to the windows drivers,
windows ran well.  By freeze up I mean that windows wouldn't get
past the initial screen.  Any ideas why?  I have a 486/33, 4 megs
and a 8900C card.  Thanks alot.

Sarah you can call for Foxpro directly from Microsoft.  Our university
has a educational contract has follows.  With a min. order of at least
$250, the unit price for us is $ 145.60! for version 2.0 and a free upgrade
to version 2.5 this Dec.  Microsoft has a support line for foxpro as well.

We were told by our vendors, foxpro was not available because microsoft
had purchased it.  Thats when I call MIcrosoft's Educational Sellers
number in Redmond.

We believe this will be the standard for windows relational Dbases by
next spring.  We are quite excited by this.

  Well good luck  -- If you have any further question write back at my address.

Well it is like the question, buy a 286 or a 386.. neither is the tip-top
of the range, but it is farly clear that you show go for the better so it
becomes obsolete less rapidly (face it). SBPro had a sound filter, stereo
FM sound, and software control over mixing. I don't regard the CD-ROM
interface as a bonus as you need to spend an extra $500 for the custom one.

I find it unlikely that the basic SB will not be supported under future
software releases (eg. Windows), as it would cut out a big slice of the
market.. how many things are Ad Lib compatible??! So if you've got the
money spend it, and get the bonus. It is possible that you will get extra
options with software that supports better cards rather than lowest-common
denominator.. but this is all just my opinion.

Hmmm... I may be missing something here but I use pd's and run NCSA Telnet

they're drivers not programs.

There appears to be three new versions of Windows in preparation. It's not
clear how Microsoft will market them or which will be called Windows 4.

Microsoft have a team working on a new object orientated version of Windows,
with the codename 'Cairo', which should work with both DOS and NT.  Cairo
is based upon version 3 of the Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) protocol.
Windows 3.1 uses version 1 of OLE, so expect an interim release of Windows
to provide OLE version 2.  Cairo will deliver a data-centric user interface
and provide 'Information at your Fingertips' (IAYF).  There have been reports
of Microsoft giving demonstrations of IAYF to developers.

The interim version of Windows should see a merger between Program Manager and
File Manager. There's also the new Common Macro Language to bind applications
together -- one report I saw refers to it as ObjectBASIC.

Microsoft have another version of Windows called Windows for Workgroups which
will provide peer-to-peer networking.  Windows for Workgroups (codename
'Sparta') is due to be released at about the same time as Windows NT.

A friend of mine was working in Win 3.1 and was a djusting the size of his
permanent swapfile.  He chose not to restart Win, but rather go to directly
to DOS (shut down Win) to do some other utilities.

When he tried to restart Win3.1 he received an error message:  Not enough
memory to load KRNL386.EXE or WinMemSize is set too large in SYSTEM.INI.
Or some kind of message like that.  This occurs right after the Win3.1 logo
is displayed.  Win3.1 will start-up in standard mode okay.

Any ideas?  He's been running in 386enhanced mode for months now with no
real problems.  CompuAdd 316s (386sx) 16Mhz, 2MB RAM, Win 3.1.

Anything he can check before we simply reload Win3.1?

Has anybody discovered the algorithm for encoding the screensaver password
yet ? It appears to be pathetically simple..

TPW (Turbo Pascal for Windows) is not an interpreter or tokenizer as
you seem to perceive.  It does produce .EXE files just as MC++, TC++,
etc.  The byte-code you seem to be referring to sounds almost like
p-code which was common in the early implementations of Pascal, but
that was not the final output.  It was common then to have all
Pascal platforms create a p-code which was almost a generic assembler
and then each machine environment had a special p-code "assembler".

I've seen very few Pascal interpreters as you describe them.  Perhaps
you are confusing this /c another language?  Your description almost
points to TPW as an interpreted language which is really a surprise
to me.

P.S.

Check out the October 1992 issue of _Computer Language_ (easily spotted
because of the juggling equipment on the cover) where TPW 1.5 is
evaluated by Thomas Murphy on page seventeen.  I don't think you'll
find anything similar to what you are describing.
