  • jsexec can't run in GDI mode on Windows

    From Rob Swindell@1:103/705 to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Friday, January 03, 2025 22:27:14

    `uifc.init()` doesn't support a "GDI" argument and it doesn't work anyway since jsexec is built as as a console mode app.

    Hrm, you should still be able to run GDI mode from a console mode app, it will just create/destroy a terminal window if you run it from Windows.

    As for uifc.init(), the AUTO mode should result in GDI unless something weird is happening during compilation/linking.
