-=> Quoting Roy Witt to Frank Scheidt <=-

 DC>> The Win98 version that Frank's using has a top task bar that
 DC>> is easier to figure out than the XP version.
 
 FS>> But I'm using a DOS-based version of BlueWave not a Win98 version,
 FS>> though when I'm not in DOS on this machine I'm using Win98.
 
 DC>> Frank, my BW is also DOS.
 
 DC>> Are you running in full screen?  If so, you won't see the
 DC>> Win98 tool bar.
 
 DC>> Hit <alt><enter> and you will window the BW screen and see
 DC>> the Win98 task bar on the top of it.  To get back to full screen,
 DC>> make sure you are in the BW window and hit <alt><enter> again.
 
 FS> In my case I can get the window by putting the cursor on the
 FS> MS-DOS icon on the desktop, then hitting <Alt><Enter> brings a
 FS> multi-paged menu up.

 RW> You can get there by right clicking your mouse on the MS-DOS icon,
 RW> then right clicking on 'properties'...
 
 FS>  One Option is "Windows" or "Full-Screen". I select "Windows" then
 FS> press the MS-DOS icon and I'm in a window in BW.  There's a toolbar
 FS> on the top including an option to go full-screen.  When I hit
 FS> <Alt><Enter> in this window nothing happens but when I click on the
 FS> "full-screen" item on the toolbar I immediate go full-screen.
 
 FS> However I cannot get back with  <Alt><Enter> ... nothing happens.
 FS> I'll just have to mess around with this when I have more time ...

 RW> You can close the MS-DOS window by typing in 'exit' and then hitting
 RW> the enter key. I wrote a little batch file that allows me to type in
 RW> 'x' and the window will close when you then hit enter. All that it says
 RW> in the batch file is 'exit', without the ''....place the batch file in
 RW> the Windows directory on your C: drive.

 RW> You can create your own batch file in a MS-DOS window by typing in;

 RW> copy con x.bat

 RW> (then type the word exit and then hit the Ctrl Z keys simutaniously
 RW> and then hit enter)

 RW> You should see - 1 file(s) copied - on your screen if you did it
 RW> right. 

Actually I use a batch file to access BlueWave when I enter DOS.  
I've used a lot of batch files ... no use to use the "Copy Con" 
routine, either.  I use my current editor to write the batch 
file which is much faster ... and I can correct mistakes ...

 FS> OK, I've just checked out the *other* <Enter> key and
 FS> <Alt><Enter> using *that* <Enter> key *does* toggle between
 FS> full-screen and window ... so that's progress!

 RW> You'll get there.

Eventually ...

... "'Straylya, 'Straylia, 'Straylia, 'Straylya, we love you!  Amen!"
