It's a little more than that. People who use Windows95 or up, want the ease of
multitasking and ease of closing one program to open another. Force people to
forclose on this is no simple matter. Some will because they just love Hiarcs,
but many will hold off. No need to talk about the flood of "Argh! Another DOS
program!" posts that will ensue.
