I no longer need mouse.com (for now). I use a serial mouse and the SIO
drivers. On my CL 5430, windowed VESA screens don't work. The computer
is:
ASUS PVI486SP3 w/ Am486DX4-100 w/ 16MB RAM
The Session settings are:
What you had above but no EMS and no XMS. DPMI is set to 12MB.
Thanks.
PS My copy of Write Now is 4.0.2 and it still has serious problems. No
mouse after typing and lotsa crashes. For example, make a table and
boom...

Dear Executor
Can you try to add a startup screen? I downloaded a startup screen
from America Online last year. It's the familar grey screen with a box.
In the box, on the left is a Mac and there are words on the right in the
familar Chicago font. It states "Welcome to Windows". Perhaps, you could
change this to say, "Welcome to Executor"? This file is called
Welcome3.Rle. You will need a version of Windows 3.x to view it. All you
will have to do is decompress Welcome3.Zip to the C:\Windows\System
subdirectory. Then, change to the C:\Windows subdirectory and executor
Setup.Exe. Then, simply choose your video driver again. Press Enter.
Hopefully, the next time you run Windows you will see the new startup
screen. Be sure to use Pkunzip for 2.04g to decompress the file.
Sincerely,
Joseph R. Pena

Dear Executor,
I have recently discovered a bug with the demo version of Executor
for DOS, ver. 1.99f and with the Go GUI interface. I have received a window
with "Console Message" in the titlebar. The message states "Couldn't Find
System::System Folder: Printer. Here are the error messages after Executor
crashes:
Segmentation violation in pointer ponter 0xd089c2d1 at d8:12490
I normally run Executor under the Windows 3.1 with CD-ROM Exten., but I do
disable Smartdrive write-caching option. Please give me some assistance.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Joseph R. Pena

PR #801 various early exits cause Executor to dump
PR #795 Faust shouldn't require hard reboot to run E/D after NEXTSTEP
Much thanks to Ernst and Emilio for giving nice reproducible reports
that shall allow us to get these bugs fixed quickly. We will release
1.99m after we get a significant number of these bugs fixed and get to
a point where a small amount of extra work no longer results in a
fixed bug. We'll also do some retesting and make sure we haven't
broken anything else.
Exactly when we'll be done, we don't know, but we'll be working night
and day on this, since some of the 1.99l browser bugs are much worse
than we realized.

Are Executor versions announced on comp.emulators.announce?
Could they please be, as this mailinglist is a little too much for me.
(perhaps a comp.emulators.mac.executor is required)
