George,
My mamma always said I was a little wierd, but never to the point of
calling me a "fool". <g!> I must confess that I submitted Progman to the
big DEL after using LAUNCH 2.0 as my shell for a while. I just couldn't see
wasting 54k of good disk space for this piece of garbage not to mention
only having 73% free resources while LAUNCH gives me 89% free resources. I
must further confess to having saved it to a diskette for those occurances
when some sadistic programmer insists on using the OF_Prompt parameter that
gives you the "Install diskette in drive A:" when it can't find a file.
Actually, I had a major "Book burning" one evening when Progman,
Smartdrive, Himem.sys, FileManager and PrintManager were all sacraficed
after being replaced by LAUNCH, Hyperdisk, Qemm and PrintCache along with
the return of the lowly MSDOS.EXE.
