MPXplay under CWSDPMI (Users)

Well. I think you agree that crashes are generaly not good. :-D
MPXplay should at least write something like "CWSDPMI detected, crashes reported, continue? (Y/N)"

I normaly don't load CWSDPMI permanently but when is it loaded it somewhat increases stability of some software (ELINKS, GTA I in HiColor mode, some others). And generaly - when I got crash with some DOS4GW or DOS32A program I always try to run it also under CWSDPMI.


I have never discovered any problem with it, MPXplay is the only one.

If CWS is worried that CWSDPMI is not used he is wrong. What about DJGPP, Freepascal, Freebasic, Euphoria and all programs generated by them?
