Hi Jim,
Maybe I can add some tidbits to the “great apps in DOS” saga :=)
I was technical head of “ProLib Software GmbH” at that time. As a Software
house with up to 40 programmers, we have been a prominent provider for DOS
development with Microsoft FoxPro, as well as doing training and coaching
I have lDOSBox on my tablet with WordPerfect loaded so I can always keep
one copy of on going documents. I always liked WP and a modern version on
my main system.

I did a lot of programming on DOS, both professionally and for pleasure.
Clipper databases, the descendent of dBase, was the day job. I
learned C programming, starting with the Microsoft compilers Quick C and
MSVC, moving on to various other compilers.
Wordperfect 5.1 was in use every day, alon
Hi,
I remember using Turbo Pascal and Turbo C back in the day (still use it
now), also Lotus 123 and Dbase 3 :)
Ah the memories :)
Still use Turbo C++ 3 as it's output is faster than open watcom C's
compiled code.

I did not catch how to do LPT interrupt, real and protected mode. It would
be a great help if there is an example.
I work with watcom and realized it, but only once, then the ISR is never
called again.
May be LPT is not very often used.
