- Under Windows, I can represent a DOS program by an icon, and fire it up
- directly by double-clicking the icon. Is the same thing possible for DOS
- and Windows programs under OS/2? In other words, can one have a Windows
- program, e.g., on the Desktop itself and start it by double clicking, or does
- one have to fire up Win-OS/2 first (or access it through a folder on the
- Desktop)? Carl Riehm.
