Hi Group,

I am converting some fortran source written many years ago using the Watcom
Fortran Compiler.

The objective is to run the program in a Windows 32/64 bit mode with a
modern looking interface.

Can anyone recommend the best way forward in terms of developing a Windows
style interface please?

Thanks Mike

I am porting a program which currently runs in a command window, so
PRINT/READ etc goes to the command window.

Does Watcom support any means of directing this information to a Microsoft
screen window?

Thanks for any reply's.

Mike

There used to be a builtin ability called default windowing to automatically generate a Windows wrapper. I used it for a while and
then wrote my own.

I have put the source code for it in the newsgroup in the distant past, back on July 6, 2004, with the subject "an alternative for
default windowing".

Hi Lynn,

I am subscribed to the news group openwatcom.users.fortran, when I try to
search the newsgroup for your topic I am only seeing current mail.

Should I be searching other newsgroups?

Which newsserver are you using? Most feeds only keep a limited number
of days or volume.

Try the news.openwatcom.org feed itself.

I looked for Lynn's postings by name and see they've been downloaded
here so we can always repost or send offline if needs must be...
