This must be the C Set/2 way, because the program that comes with MSC is
called EXEHDR, and the syntax is:
EXEHDR /PMTYPE:VIO <prog>.exe
or
EXEHDR /PMTYPE:WINDOWCOMPAT <prog>.exe
Actually, I haven't tried the second one of these--it may have something
to do with MS-Windows. The first one definitely sets the OS/2
WINDOWCOMPAT bit in the header. It's easier to type, so there's no
reason to bother with the second method. :-)
Typing EXEHDR with no arguments will give you a list of all the options
to this program.
