  1. If you were wondering if you could print from a #hpux system running a #windows3 application via Wabi via JetDirect being emulated on an Oki c542 printer.

    Yes, yes you can. It all just kind of works without much fuss, except that I had to change the snmp community name for my printer because the old hpux drivers don't seem to like the snmpv2 stuff?

    I'm kind of floored this all works.

  2. I've pushed myself a bit and tossed a rough tutorial on cross-compiling for #Windows3, #WindowsNT, #Windows95, and #MSDOS with #OpenWatcom up on the web zone: indigoparadox.zone/tutorials/w

    It's late, so I don't trust my proofreading, but I've been asked about this enough where a quick and dirty tutorial has become a practical consideration. Hopefully it's useful!

  8. Release Candidates (RCs) were post-beta development builds of Windows. As their name suggests, devs were confident in the stability of these “candidates for release”. During testing, any last-minute issues would be fixed, leading to the final Release To Manufacturing (RTM) build. #DailyWindowsFact #Microsoft #Windows #Windows3 #WindowsXP #WindowsVista #WindowsServer2012
