Please don't take this the wrong way, it's not a criticism. But this
software is "old"!  ;-)   I was (out of boredom?) reading the mailing
list archive of djgpp-announce yesterday. It seems DV/X stuff for
DJGPP dates back to 1992 or such. Heh. And yeah, Quarterdeck (and thus
Desqview) is presumably long gone, eaten up by Symantec, who buried
it. I'm pretty sure DJ doesn't remember any of that old stuff anyways.
Sad that old software and history seem to disappear (even websites
without warning), as it makes things much harder to preserve and
use.    :-/
