alternate win 3.1 shell

New Messagealternate win 3.1 shell (modified 0 times) done waitin
can someone please help me, I remember reading a thread about an alternate shell for windows 3.1 that was made by (I think) IBM. I've searched old threads for an hour with no success. Was the thread deleted of what?
If anyone remembers this please reply, Thanks

I mentioned it in one of my postings. It is called 'Workplace Shell for Windows', and it gives an OS/2 Warp look-and-feel to Windows 3.1/3.11. It should be in Simtel or Cica. Look for wpsh????.zip (I don't remember the version, maybe 1.2 to 1.5).

Found something interesting at http://www.simtel.net Its a shell called Calmira for windows 3.1x

Calmira is a Windows 95 user interface for Windows 3.1. It's a fully
integrated environment for managing your files and programs

ok I have to say that the calmira shell for windows 3.1 rocks
go to http://www.calmira.org/ for the latest version. It is free and Open source. New releases are still appearing.

This is perfect for me because all I will be doing is playing mp3's surfing the web and playing emulated games from my DOC. I will use an extra CD-rom drive I have to play the mp'3s and game roms from
If you want to check it out here are links for windows 3.1 installation disks.

I still had plenty of room for winamp and netscape (or you can use opera) after installing win 3.1 and plenty of emulators.

Have Fun
