Windows 3.1 file dialog in windows XP



Windows 3.1 file dialog in windows XP Nov-6-06, 2:59 pm by Hanford File under: Misc. Wow, this brings back memories. I went to install a font in Windows XP today and saw a relic from the past: the Windows 3.1 file dialog. This is in Microsoft's own code. To see it, open the fonts directory and choose "install new font" from the edit menu. It's funny to see this kind of thing in XP; clearly it's holdover code from eleven+ years ago. I wonder if this still exists in Windows Vista. 3 Comments \| Retweet this Feedback - 3 responses Displayed newest to oldest. Leave a comment. Jan Kraetzschmar wrote: Nov-28-06, 6:29 am Well, really. From 95, 98, ME through NT, 2K, XP this old-fashioned font dialog survived. I think there are clear reasons for that... However, I'm used to look at Win3.1 dialogs quite more often... http://www.win31.de/ http://www.calmira.de/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-kraetzschmar/294652022/ Heather wrote: Nov-21-06, 3:03 pm Yup! http://tikimama.com/images/fonts.jpg Aldo Hoeben wrote: Nov-6-06, 11:53 pm Rumor has it that yes, Vista has that dialog too!
