Attaching my copy of WIMP too - AFAICT the difference from the archive copy (1.4?) is in the Mouseart program.

This version does some POKEs around DIR to correct the output. The archive copy - at least under SuperDOS - ends up prompting to press a key for more after each file listed.

... and indeed the whole disk may be more SuperDOS-specific - now I come to try it, the BOOT sectors don't seem to work under DOSplus, where the archive copy is ok. So maybe just consider this a curiosity ;)
