The Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) is designed as a multilanguage,
project-oriented development environment for MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
The key to each language's interface into PWB is the .HLP files and
the .MXT files for MS-DOS and the .PXT files for MS OS/2. The .HLP
files are the help files for each language product. The .MXT and .PXT
files are PWB extensions for each language that define menus and
dialog boxes for each compiler. Thus, to use PWB with both BASIC and
C, you must copy the PWBC.MXT file (for MS-DOS) or PWBC.PXT file (for
MS OS/2) into the directory containing the BASIC PWB.EXE file, and SET
the HELPFILES environment variable to find both the C and BASIC help
files.
This information applies to Microsoft BASIC Professional Development
System (PDS) version 7.10 and to Microsoft C PDS version 6.00 for
MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
