Is the BC++ 2.0 compiler exclusively a protected mode application, or is
that an option? If I were to purchase BC++ 2.0 and given that I run Win 3.0
in enhanced mode would I be able to compile code using BC++ 2.0, without
exiting Win 3.0 (enhanced mode) and running Win 3.0 in standard/real mode?
(I have a 386, of course, and would like to remain in enhanced mode).
