To be the most accurate, WoW16 is an addition to NTVDM. NTVDM alone provides 16-bit emulation plus DOS support. WoW16 adds on top of that, Win 3.1 support (which is also 16-bit). WoW16 is implemented using wow32.dll (the 32-bit part that interfaces directly with NTVDM), wowexec.exe (the

That's not true. NTVDM is not WoW16. NTVDM is just DOS support. In order to support 16bit (windows 3.1) applications, a whole other system is needed. On 16 March 2017 at 23:37, Javier Agustìn Fernàndez Arroyo wrote: > "-Implementing WoW16 support. I suppose that'll draw

Hi again! Mark's commit yesterday has revealed a misconfiguration of the FishEye indexing. Namely it only indexed source code files up to 100 KB and his edited freetype.c was 136 KB. Looking into our repository, we have source code files up to 1 MB. Unfortunately, the only way to fix this is
