I've looked at PCNX and for the most part the code is terrible and
inefficient.  There are far too many include files making the whole
thing unreadable.  The other thing is that it rides on top of MSDOS
rather than throwing it out.  I never got any of my daily-use
programs to work with PCNX, so the idea of running a file in the
background while running WordPerfect etc, is bogus.  There is no
such thing as well behaved (or so I've found).
