Xref: utgpu comp.sys.ibm.pc:4259 comp.sys.tandy:267 I have a question regarding Microsoft's MS Windows. What exactly is it? I gather from the name that it's a window package for MSDOS machines, but is it like Suntools for the SUN stations? Does is require (or can it use) a mouse? I'd like a description if some one can share one with me, or refer me to one. Anothe question I've got is about using a mopuse on the PC. Secifically, the Tandy 1000. Is there any decent mouse driven UTILITY software out there? NOT graphics stuff, but things like editors, commands shells, etc (similiar to SUN's Suntool/sunwindows packages). Anything? Thanks, Steve Cooper :
