- Wordle 1.0 - January

It has finally happened! After almost 25 years, I have (re)installed a suitable
C/C++ compiler and started programming new software for ProBoard. Now available is Wordle 1.0 PEX, which you can
download here.
FYI, the development of this PEX was entirely done in
Borland C++ 3.1 (for DOS) running in an Azure VM using Windows Server 2008 (x86) as operating system.

- August 3, 1998
Not really ProBoard related, but it might be interesting to
know that Microsoft released a new version of its Games API, DirectX. Windows 98 users
need DX6CORE.EXE (all versions of Windows), Windows 95 users need DX6ENG.EXE
(for English versions of Windows). Get it here!

interested in this +50 KB piece of code? Let me know... The same for my Last Caller PEX.
