on the subject "new beta Version OpenXP (3.8.13)":


CB>> Do I get it right that you're testing the DOS executable on
CB>> Windows? Is it just for testing?

MF> Yes and yes.

OK.

CB>> It would be much better to use the Windows-Version if you're
CB>> running Windows in the first place. There's absolutely no reason
CB>> for using the DOS Version under Windows.

MF> I'm sorry to have to say this but I don't like the Windows
MF> version. To be more precise, I don't like the slow reaction time
MF> to key presses.

Hmmm. Well, as long as you don't need Fido-over-IP, UUCP-over-IP or the  
internal clients, that should be OK.


MF> Oooooops, I should have said it looks like it's continually
MF> reporting the mouse coordinates regardless of whether they have
MF> shifted or not.

Markus has disabled this useless debug entry. There seems to be bug in  
FreePascal connected to this, he's waiting for a reaction from fpc and  
well upload the new oxp version after that.

CB>> Does the Windows version of OpenXP do the same?

MF> Nope, it only reports the mouse coordinates when they change.

OK
