- I've used GSos2PM10. No problems with swapper.dat, or displaying fonts
- or postscript files. Worked very well, in fact, up until I shut it down.
- At that point, it should have given back control to the 4OS2 session I
- started it from, but it didn't. So, I tried to get rid of the session
- using the task list. Didn't work. Tried getting rid of it using the
- 'close' item on the drop down menu. Didn't work. Tried getting rid of
- it using PSPM2, and that didn't work either! I ended up having to reboot.
- This program does this consistently.
- That is, however, the only problem with it I noticed. Might be
- a combination of 4OS2 and GSOS2PM10, or something else... Don't know.
- No lost data, though!
