- Hi,
-
- I do not have an OS/2 system up yet, but I am being gently pushed
- in that direction. I asked the FrameMaker folks if my MS-Windows
- version would run under OS/2. The official answer is "not reliably".
- Then I noticed the one byte patch in the OS/2 FAQ (thank you
- Tim). I less trusting individual might think that FrameMaker had
- deliberatly put an OS/2 incompatable instruction in the code, but I
- would never think such a thing!
-
- At any rate, I was wondering if anyone had actually attempted the
- patch and how well FrameMaker then runs under OS/2. Also, once
- patched will the MAKER.EXE file still run under MS-Windows? FrameMaker
- is the ONE program that is holding me to MS-windows.
