PE> 3. copy command caused corruption.
LE> Never seen this.
Hasn't happened to me again yet that I've known about.
PE> 5. Some doubling of characters.
LE> Never seen this. Where do they get doubled? Windowed sessions, fullscreen,
LE> what?
With 3.0 they were getting doubled even on the normal screen, ie when you
right click, instead of seeing "Shutdown" on the menu, you might
see "Shuudoon" or something (maybe that was just the Australian
version? :-)), but with 4.0, I have only spotted it in one place so far -
the Epson
printer driver setup.
PE> 6. epson driver doesn't do A4 properly.
PE> 7. omni driver doesn't do A4 properly.
LE> Omni works fine for me. What application, what symptoms, what type of data?
Any application, it doesn't set the page length properly to 70 lines on my
LQ500. That is one thing that I can't set via dipswitch unfortunately. So
every time I reset the printer, it goes back to 65 or whatever, and needs
the command send again. The OS/2 printer drivers send a reset before every
printout.
PE> 9. vio of blue causes overscores.
LE> News to me, considering I have MsgedSQ/2 configured to use blue for quoted
LE> text, and the top and bottom status bars are yellow on blue text. What
LE> environment - video driver? windowed or fullscreen session?
I see it in Binkley, which gets auto-started. video driver is Tseng Labs
ET4000 one. Fullscreen session.
/* The following program demonstrates a presumed-bug in OS/2 */
/* If this program is run from the startup, or if the program is
run from a shell that was started from the startup, it prints
ABC in blue, with a line *above* it. If run from a screen that
is started manually (ie after startup), it simply prints ABC in
blue, as expected.
I believe this bug was not present in 2.1, but was in 3.0. I
didn't document it until 4.0 because I thought it would be fixed
by 4.0.
The program does the same thing whether compiled with IBM CSET++/2 2.1
or Watcom C++ 10.0.
