#5 Windows port differs from DOS port for 3.50 version: F1 key for online help
Hello,
i download latest version of doszip commander as archive dzbin350.zip. When
i run commander dz.exe inside Window online help is available by F1 key press
or "help", "help" menu and the help is shown by contents of file "dz.txt".
When i run it with DOS inside Virtualbox apparently execute dz.dos
program. But now online does not work.
So i compare it with older working version 2.52. There online help file has
name "doszip.txt". So i rename file "dz.txt" to "doszip.txt". Now help work
as expected. So a quick fix would be to store a second copy of online help
file as "doszip.txt" inside package archive, but then windows and DOS port
behaves different. So best solution would be to change program that all
ports used the same file name.
With regards
Jenderek
Hi Jenderek,
The DOS version is somewhat limited compare to the Windows version so the help file differ. If you plan on using Doszip in plain DOS it's better to download the DOS version which is currently 2.55.
However the current version is supplied as a hybrid for both DOS and Windows so I uploaded a new version (3.51) and added the doszip.txt file to the doc/dzstub.zip file.
