- Hello Y'all,
-
- Well, E\D1.99n looks pretty good, although i'd like to see it work
- properly in OS/2 again. The boot DOS from A: thing is more of a cludge
- than a solution. But it works.
-
- Must say the graphics are very fast now, with and without VBE 2.0, but
- 2.0 is very fast.
-
- I don't see this "annoying white border" that some peole are griping
- about. 2.0 looks the same as 1.2, except that the cursor draws better,
- no more box of vision in a sea of black... I'm using UniVBE51a.
-
- Few problems:
-
- Write Now 4.0.2:
-
- Coloring a table still crashes it.
-
- Expanding the spacing between lines (like double spacing) crashes it.
- Shrinking the spacing does not seem to though. It bombs after about 5
- seconds after the change is made. A document opened with this
- increased spacing also crashes.
-
- Other than that WriteNow4.0 seems pretty stable and usable. Style,
- font, size changes all work, as do text color changes.
-
- Formatting floppies seemed to work fine.
-
- I have a 2x CD-ROM, but i normally don't load the drivers since i
- don't use it in DOS much and they take up memory, but Executor won't
- load unless they are loaded. It hangs when the screen is black. This
- is odd. Can it see the drive without its drivers? This is the only
- reason i can see that explains why only one of my 4 DOS boot options
- works.
-
- If i see more bugs, etc. I'll let y'all know. Thanks.
