- The GoldED OS/2 version - what is different? Rev:9340214
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- --- Introduction
- ---
-
- This document outlines the main differences between GoldED for DOS and
- GoldED for OS/2.
-
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- --- GoldED/2 - The OS/2 version.
- ---
-
- * GoldED/2 is a 32-bit windowable textmode OS/2 2.x program. A full
- PM (GUI) version is planned, but is not currently being developed.
- This release was compiled with Watcom C++ 9.5b for OS/2.
-
- * Long filenames (HPFS) are implemented. However, I can make no
- guarantee that all conceivable forms of valid HPFS filenames are
- supported, especially such exotics as spaces in filenames and
- various punctuation characters that are invalid in MS-DOS
- filenames. Some parts of GoldED may support exotic forms of
- filenames, while others may not. I will do what I can to make sure
- future releases are fully HPFS compatible.
-
- * Handling of Ctrl-Break does not work too good in this release.
- Hitting Ctrl-Break will simply exit GoldED/2 immediately without
- any form of cleaning up first. I'm working on a better solution...
-
- * GoldED/2 does not yet support Sound Blaster or other sound
- systems.
-
- * The following GOLDED.CFG keywords are irrelevant or unsupported in
- the OS/2 version and may be ignored:
-
- DOSSWAP
- EVENT
- MOUSE
- OVERLAY
- PLAY
- SCREENELIMSNOW
- SCREENUSEBIOS
- SOUNDDEVICE
- SOUNDPATH
- SWAPPATH
- TIMESLICE
