I'll upload TI868.ZIP to Simtel20 today, where it can join TDWIN31.ZIP
that I placed there yesterday. For those who didn't see my other
message, TDWIN31.ZIP contains a replacement for the version 3.0
WINDEBUG.DLL that should work with both Windows 3.0 and 3.1. TI868.ZIP
is the same as the document 868 from our techfax number, and describes
the other issues you will run into using BC++ 3.0 with Windows 3.1,
and what to do about them. Look for the files on
wsmr-simtel20.army.mil in directory pd:<msdos.turbo-c>, or on the
archive mirror sites wustl.wuarchive.edu and oak.oakland.edu in
directories with names like /msdos/turbo-c and /mirrors/msdos/turbo-c
once they have had time to migrate over there.

I also uploaded to the pd:<msdos.turbopas> directory TPWN31.ZIP, which
contains files for Turbo Pascal for Windows users who have Windows 3.1.
