- Sorry if these are FAQ's but...
-
- How does a non-windows application detect if it is running under
- Windows? I'm currently using Borland C++ in case you know of
- a library function that does this. Since I'm on this subject
- are there any "official" guidelines on what non-win apps
- should *not* do when running under Windows (especially in
- the area of communication with EMS or XMS managers, direct
- video writes, and use of INT 33)? As you may have guessed
- I'm trying to "UAE-proof" a DOS graphics application.
-
- Please email responses.
-
- Thanks,
