I would like to write some programs that will run under DesqView
and take advantage of the message passing facilities (inter process
comunication) provided by DesqView. I was wondering if anyone has
done this in C or Pascal and could show me some subroutines that might
get me started.
Thanks

The API package I got cost me $200 but the documentations stinks. Some of the calls are documented incorrectly and there are nemuerous syntatical errors. I do recommend the package since overall there are a lot of nice functions. For a reasonable refrerence, M&T Books (Redwood City, Ca) has a book entittled "DESQview: A Guide to Programming the DESQview Multitasking Environment: by Stephen R. Davis. -- Steve
