PPWIZARD is a free preprocessor for HTML, REXX, Visual Basic or any text files.

PPWIZARD IN WINDOWS

Status Under Windows XP

I don't expect any issues.

Status Under Windows NT/2000

No known issues. I now do all development and testing under Windows 2000.

Example command when "W32SETUP" has been used to install PPWIZARD is:

    ppwizard  tryme.it
    

Status Under Windows ME

No known issues. It has been tested. Works as per Windows 98.

Status Under Windows 98

People are happily using it under Windows 98. Works as per Windows 95.

I believe Windows 98 has the same 5 or 6 year old bug with its command processor as Windows 95 (see below).

Status Under Windows 95

PPWIZARD under Windows 95 works exactly like the DOS version.

It appears that a bug in Windows 95 (thanks Microsoft!) might prevent you getting the return code and so automatically determining if everything worked or not. Obviously games don't require return codes!

As for all non-NT based Windows releases, you will have to preceed the PPWIZARD command with "regina". Example command command is:

    regina ppwizard  tryme.it
    

Status Under Windows 3.1

Use DOS version of Regina.
