- Hi Folks,
-
- If you're an E/D user and are feeling adventurous, you can pick up
- ftp://ftp.ardi.com/pub/Executor_DOS/beta_cwsdpmi/csdpmi2b.zip and use
- the replacement cwsdpmi.exe. It's a new DPMI provider that fixes a
- few bugs (you can see the author's note below).
-
- There's absolutely no reason to pick this up unless you just feel like
- getting something new. We won't even be using this cwsdpmi.exe in the
- final release of Executor 2, but if anyone sees any differences with
- the new version, please let us know.
-
- NOTE: I have permission from Charles to put those two .zip files on
- our site. He likes us and he likes Executor users, and we (at ARDI)
- like him a lot, since Executor/DOS is dependent on DJGPP/cwsdpmi.

-
- I have put together a new release of CWSDPMI. Release 2 fixes bugs in handling
- lots of memory zones (it is now configurable), problems with XMS memory
- handling (HIMEM.SYS only operation), allocation of memory blocks in the 60-64K
- size range, and deletion of the pagefile on exit.
-
- I have put a copy on XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX in username: XXXXX, password: XXXXXXXX.
- The binary (csdpmi2b.zip) and source (csdpmi2s.zip) are in the default
- directory. The parameter setting source/binary are now included in the
- normal distributions. I consider it to be in beta for about a week.
- If I haven't heard that it makes things worse or breaks something new,
- this distribution will be released by the end of June.
-
- This is the first time I've used this distribution, so if you don't want
- to see further notifications, let me know. Good luck.
