DOS prompt

[meow]

HTF do I get it back from full screen to a normal window without closing it?

 

[roly]

Press Alt + Enter to go back and forth

 

[meow]

Nope. :cry2:

Doesn't the minimise button work? It does on mine.

 

[meow]

There are no button when you are in full screen. I can minimize it with Alt+Tab but I want to go back to a normal promt window.

 

[murat]

STRG + C
ctrl + c i think in english

 

[meow]

Someone else told me that. But that prints "^C" on the screen.

 

[murat]

hmm i think at some program its not possible to make that

what abou e+x+i+t+enter ?

 

[meow]

Yes, exit works but I don't want to close it and lose the information. I just want to toggle between normal window and full screen. :crysad:

 

[murat]

screenshot ?

 

[meow]

What? Do you want screen shot of my DOS prompt?

 

[murat]

sure

 

[meow]

r u joking me? Sure, I can make one but what do you want to see? In what state do you want it?

BTW I think you were right. I found ALT + ENTER mentioned at several DOS sites. I'm beginning to suspect it's my keyboard. A couple of other key combinations doesn't work anymore for me in DOS (but does in Windows) and they involve ALT. Very strange.

 

[Jan]

Phew! Alt + Enter worked :classic2:

But not till I restarted :confused2

 

[meow]

THEN HOW COME MY ALT KEY DOESN'T WORK IN DOS WHEN IT DOES IN WINDOWS???

 

[Jan]

I don't know :cry2: Maybe a 95 problem?

 

[meow]

It used to work, silly. :devious2:
I mean, if it's broke it wouldn't work in windows either. I bet it's in some damn' configuration file somewhere. HELP ME!

 

[Jan]

How long since you downloaded updates?

Maybe take the Alt key off to see there is no cockroach or something under it

Edited typo

 

[meow]

Updates for Windows 95? Yeah. Right. :biggrin2:

There is no guck and if that was the problem it would work at all. :crysad:

 

[Jan]

Should be Start/Windows updates there

It isn't THAT long since I used 95
