Hi All,

I'm trying to make UNICOWS (* this is a Microsoft .dll which 
can make UNICODE applications work on Win95/Win98/WinME) 
work with Harbour, but there are problems.

You can get unicows.dll from here:
   http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=14851
   (extract with '/c' to avoid installation)

You can get the stub lib for MinGW from here:
   http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/libunicows/libunicows-1.1.1-mingw32.zip
For bcc here:
   http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/libunicows/libunicows-1.1.1-bcc32.zip
For other compilers, here:
   http://libunicows.sourceforge.net/

Rebuild Harbour with HB_BUILD_UNICODE=yes, copy stub 
library to Harbour lib dir, add -lunicows to hbmk2 command 
line, and copy unicows.dll next to the test executable.

Problems experienced so far:
  - With bcc, the app runs, but there is visible trash on screen.
  - With bcc, keyboard doesn't seem to work.
  - With mingw, the app just hangs, and only reboot helps.

All this tested on Win98, with this little program:
---
PROCEDURE MAIN()
   ? GetEnv( "COMSPEC" )
   Alert( "HELLO" )
   RETURN
---

Any idea where to start looking?

Brgds,
Viktor
