Function of the various QB4.5 files

[Zack]

Gaaaaah! Gimme your command.com!! :wink:

Jark: you are missing all the example files. They are referenced from the QB help in several examples. Do you want to contact me so I can send you the complete package?

Thqnks Nqthqn/ I hqve qll of the; in fqctm but I listed only the files thqt I think qre necessqry for AB to zork. I4; trying to figure out zhqt4s the role of eqch file<<<

:y keyboqrd hqs szitched to qwerty /////

My keyboard had switched from azerty to qwerty...

I had to reboot... (Thanks XP)

Well, I was saying, Nathan, that the file list consists of the files that are really necessary: I have the examples files, but I do not pu them in my work directory. Thanks anyway !

I also have a french QB4.5, by the way, even if i use the english one...

Well, I think that if you're gonna distribute QB45 it's better for you to distribute the complete package.

[Jark]

I had not considered this aspect of the subject...

So I'm going to check that I still have these files... Since I'm perfectly capable of losing my own files, I'm not 100% sure I still have all of these. In this case, I'll let you know, Nathan :wink:

======
Edit: I have only a part of the .BAS files...

Nathan, if you can send them to me in a zip file, I will post a "complete" QB4.5 on my webpage ( I think you have seen the disclaimer and copyright mention I have written ? Find it clean ?)

French version of DOS?!?!

What?!!! No Croatian version of DOS?!!!

[Lachie Dazdarian]

No. Shocking.

What?!!! No Croatian version of DOS?!!!

There must be a croatian version of MS-Windows...

I have a job that makes me travel a lot... I had the opportunity to work on french, danish, dutch, spanish, german, english, etc... versions of MS-Windows and MS-Office.

The most funny was the czech version: there is absolutely no word you can guess ! Hopefully, the keyboards short-cuts are the same (Alt-F4, Ctrl+C, etc...), and that's how I managed that.

In fact, the software is not the main issue. The problem is mainly the keyboard ! Take a look at my recent post where my machine had unloaded the french keyboard driver: I have typed without taking into account that the machine was in Qwerty mode...

But.

Most of all: some of you may have seen Japanese PC's. I used to work with Japanese people 2 years ago, who were using Kanji keyboards... And that's another planet, really: you strike a first combination of keys that depends on the notion you need, then the system displays a drop-list of ideograms, and you mut select the right one, depending on the context of the sentence...

I can provide the Spanish Qbasic 1.0 version which came with MSDOS 5.
