TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
As usual I've received several well informed and useful off-line responses to a
query; this time it's apropos multiple monitors running off a DOS box with Win
'95. Unfortunately the emailer here (Lotus cc: Mail) has, overnight, decided
not to read my archived messages. When this is resolved I will post a summary.
From memory most people said that upgrading to Win 98 makes contiguous screens
possible as it is an in-built capability. Someone else suggested that a
particular card will make it possible on Win 95. Sorry I can't attribute these
comments or give fuller details at the moment.
In the interim thanks to those kind souls who posted to me/the list and I'll
back when I've got access to my mail files.
