Thats what development programs are for.. there have been multiple
releases of alpha and betas of it to the developers along with msc to
program for it….
as for your 'pmode' kicking it into 'flat 32bit mode'… its simply a
16 bit program acting like a 32bit program.. you do realize its
running on a 16 bit os dont you? <and calling it 16 bit is pushing
it> things run much faster when actualy compiled for 32bits then when
they emulate 32bits…
win '95 is a full 32bits.. down to the core…
you have to put the code in, but you dont have to put the code in for
lots of other things like direct access to 4 gigs of memory <yes… 4
gigs.. no more 64k segments.. no more ems no more bs "dos extenders">
actualy no… as i stated.. you can write it as a full screen windows
app, not to mention '32bit' <extended> programs run faster under
windows then they do run under your 16bit dos… dont matter how you
mess with it.. 32 bit is 32 bit.. and 16 bit is still 16 bit.. even
witha '32bit' extender…. <i can and do run most demos <that dont
force me to get rida memory managers and such> in a window faster
then i used to under dos 5.0> <oh.. and for those of you that feel
the need to program in that the program wont run if theres emm386 or
such in memory.. stop it.. with win'95 dos… theres no difference
in speed if you have nothing loaded or emm386, qemm, and 10 other
programs that supposedly slow the demos down….>
