Folks--

Here's the source code to accompany the April 1992 issue of Windows Tech
Journal. Here's what you've got:

CATCH
This directory contains the files to accompany James Plamondon's
article on exception-handling, "CATCH & THROW." The code is in C.

EXECWAIT
This is Walt Oney's WinExec replacement function, ExecWait, which
retains some of the desirable features of good ol' Spawn.

UNDOCDOS
This directory contains Richard Sadowsky's Turbo Pascal for Windows
code for browsing through undocumented data structures in DOS. The
code accesses DOS through DPMI, so the archive includes DPMI.PAS,
which was also distributed with the January 1992 issue.

IQTEST
This directory includes source and executables for Zack Urlocker's
fun little "prank" program, IQTEST.

NOTBAD
As a rip-off of Notepad, it's not bad. A simple text editor for Windows,
with complete source code.

MYTHILE
This is Rud Merriam's Visual Basic program launcher. Pretty cool.

HOTKEY
Jonathan Zuck's sample hook-filter code. The ZIP file includes a
DLL with Pascal source, plus sample access programs in Visual Basic,
Toolbook, ObjectViews, Realizer, C, and Pascal.

BITMAPS
These WinTech logos are just for fun. Use 'em for wallpaper--we do!

As always, thanks for your support of Windows Tech Journal. For a free issue
and a no-risk subscription, give us a buzz at (800) 234-0386.

And don't forget to order a WinTech T-shirt or sweatshirt. RTFM is outselling
NO GUI, NO GLORY, but it's a close race. Be a Windows Warrior in the proper
garb!

Best wishes,

J.D. Hildebrand

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
