Probably yeah, but now they've officially released it under the MIT license so stuff like Wine could now potentially borrow some code to improve compatibility with Windows
That thought occurred to me but is code this old even still relevant at all?
I ask this as someone who writes simple scripts and would never call themselves a coder.
For the most part probably not, but Microsoft cares a lot about backwards compatibility so I imagine some of this code still lives on in Windows
Though you should take this with a grain of salt, since I'm saying this as someone who 1. never looked at Wine source code 2. used the Windows API only once, for a very small program 3. is still learning programming, so I wouldn't call myself a coder (yet) either
yeah there are even still some remaining windows 3.0 dialogues used in the latest win11
As someone with an IBM PS/1 running 4.0, I'm excited to be able to modify it, distribute it, etc
