SUMMARY
When Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) runs a Windows program or CodeView for Windows (CVW), it uses the WX.EXE program (also called WXServer) to allow it to do so. By default, WXServer works from an MS-DOS full screen under Windows. If you are running PWB in a window, WXServer will switch you to full screen when the spawned program returns unless you use the /W command-line option. The /W option can be added to the WX.EXE command line by changing the PWB project template that is currently being used. To change the project template, follow these steps:

 Make sure that the project template to be edited is the project template you want. Make the appropriate changes to the project template.

 From the Options menu, choose Project Templates. Choose Customize Project Template.  Type the following in the Build Rule edit field: "macro WXFLAGS &quot;/w&quot;" Choose Set Build Rule. Choose OK. </li></ol>
