But sometimes it's good to use DOS because you don't have to worry
about a lot of the window parameters and system calls. It's a bit
easier to program in DOS because you don't have to worry about how
good it looks. Most DOS programs look pretty bad already. Too bad
there's no DOS on the Macintosh. It gets a bit annoying when you have
to set all kinds of window and menu parameters so that the program
looks good. It's okay to use DOS if you're only an amateur. If you
want money for your program, make it in Win95.
