Dos6.0

Future Features / Ideas for CW:
===============================

-- Efficiency review
	* axMac optimize for 80
	* WORD / DWORD align data
	* CC 5.0
	* optimize screen drawing
	* optimize thunk scanning / global memory allocation
	* fix global realloc (fixed DGROUP etc).
	* split into a real library

-- Organization
	* Isolate the KERNEL stuff (separate project ?)

-- Pixel modes
	* more robust support (multiple code pages)

-- BIOS safe I/O variant (optimize)

-- DDE interface
	(a) Menu / Dialog interface
	(b) EMM control (paging control)
	(c) App specific control (like Lotus i/f) + context.

BUGS:
=====

Global Realloc (alloc & copy is bogus)
DOC: SetDialogCaption -- string must be static (for now).


Issues for DBCS Edit manager:
=============================

* WM_CHAR - double byte or 2 WM_CHAR messages ??

* Left->Right not top->bottom
* Weird wrapping rules at right hand side (not QB's prob).
* QB Text manager (255 chars or bytes ?)
* general DBCS support (cursor movement etc)

* 2 methods of K-K conversion
