trying to run the windows version of 3.1? If so, try the DOS version instead (however
note that as far as I am aware this will not work in 64-bit versions of windows 10).If
you really absolutely need version 3.1 and later versions won't work even with an
appropriate #version 3.1 directive added to their output files then you may have to
set up a virtual machine with windows 95 or something and run it in there. It might
even be worth booting a live linux ISO and seeing if the Linux 3.1 console version
works.If all else fails you could try building a new console exe from the source.--

I want a windows version, as the programs I want to work with won't work in a dos
emulator (like dosbox)...will look into a virtual windows 95 set up...if all else
fails, I will do the #version 3.1 directive, but it will entail a lot of extra work. 
Thanks for your response...and as far as building a new console exe, that is probably
beyond my time budget...too much to catch up on as far as compilers go....Thanks again
for responding.
