If there will be version 4, you may want to consider the following minor
things that actually have nothing to do with running games :)
1. The program is reloaded again and again whenever the user runs:
cwsdpmi -p
It may be nice for the prgram to load only once with one:
cwsdpmi -p
and to report that:
cwsdpmi loaded into memory
and to report that:
cwsdpmi is already loaded into memory
when the user attempts another:
cwsdpmi -p
2. As things are now, when cwsdpmi is reloaded as in above with the -p
switch it will be unloaded once at a time with every:
cwsdpmi -u
Now if point 1 is taken into account then:
cwsdpmi -u
will unload the program if the program was loaded before, reporting:
cwsdpmi has been unloaded
and
cwsdpmi -u
will report:
cwsdpmi is not loaded
if the user has not loaded the program before.
These are minor points that make for a more consistent behaviour as "house
cleaning chores" more than anything else.
