Windows 3.11 has its 30th anniversary this November, so I thought that it would be a fun idea to create a modern (or: not ancient) and easy way of developing new applications for that system, while retaining the compatibilty with modern Windows and having the option of building cross-platform applications. I created a installation script which installs CodeBlocks with integrated DOSBox-X that runs Windows 3.11 and 95 and loads you program automatically after you build it. Windows is automatically configured and installed from your own installation disks. As a GUI library I used slightly modified wxWidgets.
