About Personal Merge Session Configurations
Use the Personal Merge Session Configuration window to view, modify, or create
an environment in which DOS or Windows sessions will run.
Two default environment configurations come with SCO Merge:
- A configuration named dos is the default environment for running
DOS sessions.
- A configuration named win is the default environment for running
Windows sessions.
SCO Merge is fully configurable, so you can create other personal
configurations that define the DOS and Windows session environments according
to your specifications.
Each configuration is saved under a unique name.
