I got Aporia off of cica.cica.indiana.edu, and it looked great, until I discovered that it (like many things, it sounds like :) throws me out of windows. The specific case here is that if I had a Dos session running in a window (in 386 enhanced mode, off course), and then tried to bring up my editor (which is the latest version of Epsilon), windows would just die and toss me out. Anyone else suffered this problem? -- Jim Seidman (Drax), the accidental engineer.

I ask because if you run a win2 program under win3 and then try to switch windows you are likely to have Windows die altogether. -- Chaim Dworkin (chaim@eniac.seas.upenn.edu)

Well, it doesn't give me the old win app warning when I try to run it, but all that means is that someone hit it with a mark as Win 3.0 app program. That's part of the reason why I asked if anyone else had had any luck with the version on cica. -- Jim Seidman (Drax), the accidental engineer.
