Windows 3.11 C/C++ Playground

Русская версия

My hamsters Seedy and Snowball Code for this program is located in projects/snowball

Installing

Windows

Download PowerShell 7 or newer either from WinGet, Microsoft Store or Microsoft website (.msi).

Linux

Install powershell from the Microsoft repos, qemu-system-i386 and dosbox from somewhere else.

How to make a new project

Make a copy of example folder in projects and rename it to something you like. Now you can add as many .c/.cpp/.h files as you like!

How to build

  1. Open PowerShell console in this folder (you can use a regular shell on Linux)
  2. ./build.ps1 -project name-of-the-project, for example, the example project in projects folder is built with the following command: ./build.ps1 -project example

Script automagically compiles and links your project's files, names the executable as project-name.exe and runs Windows 3.11 with your program in autorun.

How to clean up

Feel free to remove every .o file you see! Other unnecessary files are listed in .gitignore

Known issues

  1. The screen of QEMU is filled with static!

It probably happens because of the mouse driver. Wait until the static no longer changes, then try forcing OS to redraw the windows by dragging them around.
