WDW for Windows - For When You Really need DOS Copyright 1993 Bruce W. Nunnally, All rights Reserved. We are now offerring a premium for registering Projector - a second windows program, WDW. The technique is simple. WDW closes windows, runs a dos application, then restarts windows. The advantage is a stable, fast dos environment, at the price of the loss of multitasking capability. WDW is ideal for playing games that need speed - you start the game just like any other dos icon, but windows is not running in the background as it is in a normal dos window, or fullscreen. So all your cpu time goes into the game, and not into waiting for a task-switch command. In order to use WDW place the file WDW.exe in your windows subdirectory, usually c:\windows. Create a batch file which starts your dos application and place it somewhere in the path. From Windows Program Manager, use File|New|Program Item to create an icon for the dos application. on commandline, type WDW, then the batch file for the dos application as a parameter to WDW, like this: commandline: WDW mcgee.bat you can put the Name as the Name of the game, in this case, Mcgee. If you run WDW with no parameter, it will open a dos shell. If you run the LandMark speedcom program in WDW and in normal windows dos, you will see the difference.
