I finally succumbed and got some bux into Microsoft's coffers..
(the first time I ever did this in my LIFE) bought Windows 3!
(My machine is 386/20 and 4M of RAM)
Now what does a deeply infatuated turbo pascal hacker do with it?
Has anyone out there got a .pif to make it run in a window?
Any leads on how one goes around programming windows in turbo
pascal?
What about rumours that Borland is doing a Turbo Pascal 6 which
will run in Windows? How about a windows.bgi... or is that a
meaningless idea??

When I installed Windows 3 on my machine, the setup program found TURBO by itself and built the PIF automatically. >Any leads on how one goes around programming windows in turbo >pascal? I have never programmed Windows myself but I work with some people who do. My impression is it's real gory AND requires the development kit. I would be ecstatic if Turbo 6 supported Windows.
