   It makes my life sooo much easier, especially as the computer on    
   certain platforms is Unicode only. So, those of us (Americans mainly)    
   can still design and think IBM old school ;-p""""""

   If you guys can help me get a VM working with OS/2, I will port the    
   compiler over. I have an old VPascal, so I can use it to start the    
   builds until it self-builds on OS/2.   
      
   I may even look at Serial support - or a serial -> TCP gateway native    
   to the OS/2 build.
