- I don't believe this is true. At one time I think I had the cview386 package
- on my PC running under WinOS2. My understanding was that it used some 386
- specific instructions but did NOT use anything specific to Windows Enhanced
- mode. It's been a while since I used/installed it, so I may be wrong, but it's
- worth a try!?
