- I've been a reasonably happy user of dvimswin version 2.4, for
- MicroSoft Windows for a couple of years, but it's showing it's age, and
- sometimes does strange things, like losing all it's characters, especially
- if there are two copies running.
-
- I cannot (easily) locate the author, who used to be:
- Doug McDonald (mcdonald@aries.cso.uiuc.edu aries is 128.174.90.55)
-
- But isn't any more. Any hints appreciated. Unfortunately, while dvivga
- is available as source code, dvimswin does not seem to be (not that it
- would do me much good, as I have no Windows programming experience,
- and am not about to start right now, but I suspect that recompiling it
- with the Windows 3.1 libraries might go a long way towards fixing it).
