- I'm working on it. :) Of course, mine won't be out until end-April, and
- that helps you quite a bit now. :-/

- If you don't know any programming for OS/2, there are a couple of books
- which deal with OS/2 1.x (both kernal and PM). I can't remember the name
- of the kernal book, but the PM book is "Programming the OS/2 Presentation
- Manager" by Charles Petzold. I *highly* recommend getting it if you're
- doing any PM programming. Also, there is the "Client/Server Programming
- Under OS/2" (or something like that) which has been updated for 2.0 (is
- it on the shelves yet? I haven't looked...).
