Re: vDos-lfn instead of vDoxXy?

Thanks to Edward for that autolt script; I'll check it out.


The Windows control panel couldn't deliver the cursor speed which makes me happy in xy3, though I did find a serviceable third-party utility (Filterkeys).  But again, it's standard in vdosxy3.

John P referred to "a change made to vDos proper, which makes it
impossible to load a WordPad
document and vdos window (via autoexec.txt) and display them at the same
time. Current vDos  requires manually loading the wordpad document."

I've written an AutoIt script that works around that problem. Details here:

The other issue that John mentioned, keyboard delay and repeat rates,
are now set in the Windows control panel, in the Keyboard controls. vDos
doesn't have a separate set of controls over the keyboard from Windows
itself.
