Yes but for what purpose, _nowadays_? Yes, your statement *is* right so far, but consider this one _much too old_ for recent programs - and so it's absolutely inappropriate for people that use VC++ 6 to create software! So this msvcrt thing in W95b is completely useless and won't work together with recent VC++ software (I'VE TESTED IT!) Without an _upgrade_ of the MSV* libraries, you'll be stranded, even in W95b.
