- accept them if you register. Any description of bugs will be accepted, but we
- cannot guarantee that we will be able to correct them.

- Development of Windows Commander
-
- Windows Commander was written with Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.5 (⌐ 1991 by
- Borland International). The Drag&Drop-algorithms, especially the undocumented
- parts, were found in the very good book "Undocumented Windows", Andrew Schulman,
- Addison Wesley 1991. The DPMI-handling for setting the volume label was taken
- from the book "Turbo Pascal fⁿr Windows - Object Windows", A. Ertl/R. Machholz,
- Sybex 1992. The screen layout was imitaded from the Norton Commander (⌐Symantec).
- All code from the German issue WinDOS was removed and rewritten for Copyright
- reasons.
