Why I wrote Winders . . .
Many people run Windows from their AUTOEXEC.BAT to execute automatically
upon power-up or reboot. This method leaves no way to stop the process
once it has started other than Control C and that messy little Terminate
Batch Job Message. In my case, I like to avoid putting undue strain on my
286 that I don't have to. This is what Winders provides a way to exit to DOS
without Windows being run at all.
I wrote Winders for my own personal use and have been using it on my system
for about 2 years now. A friend saw it on my system and wanted a copy.
They used Winders on their system. They suggested that I
should release it as Shareware. I decided too many people
were releasing piddly little programs and demanding a registration
fee. If you are one of those people my comment to you is "Get real."
The idea behind shareware is to reduce users cost not increase it.
