WinG (pronounced Win Gee) is an application programming interface that was designed to provide faster graphics performance on Windows 3.x operating environments. It was initially positioned as a way to help game developers more easily port MS-DOS games to Windows. WinG was quickly discontinued in favor of DirectX.
