Roman numerals in software versioning should make a comeback.

The Cicero-approved desktop of MS-DOS programs from this moricons.dll set would include these:

Applause II 1.5

Framework III

Crosstalk-XVI 3.71

PC Paintbrush IV Plus

And of course you’d want dBase III+ and Deluxe Paint II Enhanced.

I support this. "Windows XI" looks so much more professional and enigmatic.

This website best experienced with Chrome CXXXVII+ on Windows XI Enhanced.

What were the MS-DOS programs that the moricons.dll icons were intended for?
