We are shortly going to acquire a large number of 386SX machines running MS-DOS. These will be networked in clusters and will probably run Microsoft Windows. I would be very interested to hear recommendations for menuing software to run in this environment.

I had not a single response to this request when I first posted it and suspect that it never made it to the outside world. Apologies if you've seen it before.

I would have replied before, if I could have worked out what `menuing
software' was. the point of using Windows is to click on what you
want, surely!? Windows 3 Program Manager is a pretty good interface
for setting up programs for the punters to choose from.
Toolbook is a convenient way of writing Windows `applications' where
speed and efficiency are not important
