- Has the DECUS TECO editor been ported to Win32/NT or Win32s yet?
-
- Also, as a matter of curiosity, does Win32s provide the multiple
- independent 32 bit flat address space dedicated to each task as
- in Win32/NT -- or does Win32s still allow multiple tasks within
- the same flat memory model address space? This goes back to the
- business of having to lock and unlock each object referenced in
- the preamble and postamble to each object reference -- OS/2 2.0
- PM GPI provides independent address space and therefore doesn't
- burden the programmer with locking and unlocking objects which,
- in my humble opinion should be better managed by the op system.
- Perhaps Win32s similarly avoids problems inherent in the garbage
- collection and possible problems induced by sharing task memory.
