   In summary: DV/386 is superb at running multiple DOS applications and
   managing their bad behaviour, as well as things like allowing
   text-mode and graphics-mode programs to share the screen, and cutting
   and pasting text between apps, and provides a rather nice but not too
   elaborate API, but does not provide a GUI.  Windows in 386 mode runs
   DOS apps less well, but provides a nice pretty GUI and some nice
   things at the API level, such as dynamic data exchange.


How does one get the API?  Is there a document that lists the API
hooks for DesqView?  The manual only listed enough to make DesqView
aware programs, but not anything really useful.
