i found a "HX DOS extender runtime." on the net.

COOL.

Show me a DOS GUI programm based on it. I have not yet see any.

Lack: HX-DOS does not support standalone EXE files.

"I want to play a frequency not with the PC Speaker" Well, some base info (I am NOT an expert): 2 Possibilities: 1. Using a driver: Is a driver available for your card ? Do you have a programm working with it ? Then check the driver developer manual or some SB16 example code. 2. Direct access: BETTE...

" Is there a way to not include the DPMI, and just output a standard DOS, (MZ,) exe? " It IS done so by default. But you need the external file CWSDPMI.EXE. This is BAD. You can also include it - EXEcutable bloats from 60KB to 80 KB. You can't use 32 bit programming in DOS without DPMI. Silly but t...

I had to zoom the picts, but then I saw the difference.
Would be useful to see the original 24bit picture too. Could you
upload this also ?

Nice algorithm & example code, thanks.

one problem i get though (not VESA) is when i poll the mouse under XP it crashes out immediatly. ??? I would suggest to use EITHER DOS OR XP Well, what are you going to do if the next "great" product of M$ (XP 64, Vista) has no "DOS" box at all ??? I once found article where it was said that in pla...

Does any one know how to make a text area in dos, like the EDIT program of dos? You should start with a 1 line editor: Create a 1 line "window" with a fixed length, detect keypresses and perform the correct actions (write a char, delete, move left & right, end). When you have it, make a multi-l...

I was wondering if there's an easy way to play MP3's under FBDOS Sound under DOS: YES. Easy: NO. 2 ways how to play sound: - SB16 compatible driver (only old cards, newer have only an "emulation" driver installed from Windworms with odd system requirements :-( or none at all :-( - access card direc...

"Yeah - get this done and you can start making GUIs with FreeBASIC that have access to all the memory in DOS. :)"

YES - that is what I also intend. Nice DOS software, not incredibly long
commandlines...

Will FBC support hi-res & hi- & true-color graf-modes ??

Modes 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 with 8, 16 24 and 32 bits
(as long as supported by graf-card of course) ???

I found out that this is a big problem in many prog-languages,
many of them do not support more than 8 bits :-(
