I keep things simple here, except for the three (3) drives in the box,       which enable me to logon to two of the three with the boot "mangler."               PQ> With that mode, the mouse event lag was so bad that I have had to        PQ> resort to using keyboard shortcuts and keystroke navigation.         PQ> Therefore no mousey-mousey in Windows 98SE's GUI, but I do get to        PQ> use GoldEd again with its slightly better tagline collection than        PQ> the one in SemPoint. :)              With W10, I'm seriously considering talking to it instead of using keystrokes,       much as I did when I was running OS/2. I have to make sure that I have       everything I want disabled to actually be in that state before proceeding. It       has been so long since I did that, I've just about forgotten how. Any       suggestions posted by users of the "Microsoft Community" are about as useful       as a forsaken woman's kiss.                     Regards,              Roger        --- timEd/386 1.10.y2k+ Windows 10        * Origin: NCS BBS - Houma, LoUiSiAna - (1:3828/7)    |
