GEOWORKS
Description:
GeoWorks version 1.2 works fine under DR DOS but it does require
some special configuration. Files need to be set at 120. This
may seem like a high figure but it will only use about 9K of RAM
and if you are using EMM386 no impact need occur on conventional
memory. Ensemble will not even begin with files equal to 30.
TaskMAX can be initialized only with CTRL-ESC. No other hot keys
can be used. Also end-users may find that they have no keyboard
in their other tasks. We have also received reports that even if
it does switch TaskMAX will eventually fail. At this time we
cannot recommend the use of TaskMAX with GeoWorks Ensemble v.1.2.
Any version of GeoWorks prior to 1.2 will not work under DR DOS
6.
GeoWorks uses XMS memory when available and will use the HMA if
it is available.
There have been some reports that GeoWorks will not run when
SuperPCK is loaded into upper memory (/&U+). If you are having
trouble loading Ensemble try the switch /&U-. Also if you are
using SuperPCK in expanded memory (/A+) advanced disk transfers
must be turned off with a /H-.
GeoWorks Pro
GeoWorks Pro now has an interface that is fully compatible with
DR DOS 6.0s TaskMAX interface. In fact if users have installed
the new DR DOS 6.0 update that is dated 12/91 they will be able
to use the TaskMAX cut and paste features with GeoWorks Pro.
