Does anybody taskswitch within Windows ?
I have a vague memory of loading the NWDOS taskmgr before starting
Windows and then being able to call it from within Windows and switch
out to DOS tasks. The trouble is, I've forgotten how it worked :(

Nowadays I use DRDOS 7.03 and WfW 3.11 and I can't make it work. I had
thought this might be because WfW 3.11 can't run in standard mode and I
have the feeling that was required, but I've set up a copy of 3.1, 
replaced the MS taskman with the DR taskmgr and tried running in 
standard mode, but when I bring up the task list none of the DOS tasks
are displayed.

So, if it is possible to taskswitch from within Windows under DRDOS and 
anybody does so, how ?

Alex.
