PIFs, or Program Information Files, define how a given MS-DOS
program should be run in a multi-tasking environment, notably to avoid
giving it unnecessary resources which could remain available to other
programs. TopView was the originator of PIFs which were inherited and
extended by DESQview and Microsoft Windows, where they are most often
seen.
Within Windows, a PIF holds information about how Windows should run the application
the PIF corresponds to. The instructions can include the amount of
memory to use, the path to the executable file, and what type of window
to use (Full screen, window, size in pixels).
