- BP 7.0's protected mode programs are also OS/2 1.x binaries (i.e.,
- still crummy 64k segments, but a true OS/2 program nevertheless.) I
- have not needed to actually do this yet, but the docs are quite clear
- on this. The answer is that it can produce OS/2 1.x character mode
- programs, not PM and the same exe file can be used with their DOS
- extended and OS/2. My problem is that many programs cannot simply be
- recompiled--the rules change for protected mode.
