i don't think i'm doing this the easy way.
if i'm in the middle of gameplay and i want to go straight to desktop, i'm currently having to press "alt + enter" together, which normally makes the screen go black, then i press the "windows button" which shows me the game again, but darker this time, at which point i have to "fumble" (due to cursor dissapearing) along the bottom of the screen with my mouse to close the glidos bar.

this can often be 4 steps to close the damn thing down!!

any help appreciated.

Multitasking between DOS and Windows is always a bad idea.

But if you wan to run TR in a window, make sure you disabled the Fullscreen option in Glidos and you set InitFullScreen=0 in the OpenGLid.ini file. In my own experience, switching from fullscreen to window with Alt+Enter will often make Glidos crash to desktop or (worse) lock up the system.
