- -*----
- I am potentially interested in developing a Windows app, in C++,
- using OS/2 as a development platform. (This desire is not so
- strange as it sounds. Windows seems to be the execution
- environment that will be most broadly available: on top of DOS,
- under OS/2, under NT, etc. But I would just as soon not have to
- deal with DOS myself.)
-
- Toward this end, I have two questions:
-
- (1) Does Turbo C++ for Windows run under OS/2? In
- particular, does the debugger work?
-
- (2) Is there any way (current or future) to wrap a
- Presentation Manager app for Windows execution
- (a la Microsoft's Win32s scheme for NT).
-
- All advice is welcome. Thanks.

- Russell
