Last I heard, the developers would like to do it, but the company has not
decided whether it is worth doing. 
 
OS/2 has sold 1.2 million copies and continues to sell at the rate of
20,000/day. When it hits the 2 million mark - and it will - there will be a
whole lot of scrambling going on. 
 
OS/2 is gaining a reputation as a great OS. People *aspire* to OS/2.... at
least in this neck of the woods. NZ has a *very* high per capita usage of
computers. It has been the highest in the world, but I can't verify that
today.

Well, DTR is data terminal ready, and is used for the DTE (the computer) to
notify the DCE (modem) that is can send information.  If softerm is checking
anything, odds are that it is looking for CTS (clear to send) which is enabled
by the DCE to signal the DTE to go ahead.  If you don't have DTR wired, you
probably don't have CTS wired either.

You should be able to disable CTS checking with OCTS=OFF.

>MODE is documented in your online Command Reference.  You can invoke

Well, the problem is you can't set CD checking with the MODE command.  It
always turns it off, so OS/2 shouldn't carry whether the carrier signal is
high or not.

Note that even if you turn all possible settings off that deal with signals
from the modem (make sure that XON,IDSR,ODSR and OCTS are all off), it
doesn't guarantee that it'll solve your problem.  If softerm is querying the
modem signals itself, I believe it will still see that there is no CTS (or
CD or whatever it looks for).  In that event, the only real solution is to
fix the cable (even if you don't tie the signals to the modem - for example,
loop RTS and CTS on the computer side).

Here's my $ 0.02 worth.
I've stopped trying to use TE/2.  Zmodem transfers with the new DLL
do complete but they are SOOOOO SLOW.  It appears as if the window
runs ahead to end of file before the download end specifies that it
needs a block near the beginning.  This may improve when I get my
16550 installed.  For now, I'll use OS2YOU's LANTERM2 with M2ZMODEM,
which transferes as expected.  This is not a VT100 emulator but it
can accomplish the file transfers.

I just received PMFax (or FAXit, the manual says PMFax and the diskette
says FAXit). Anyhow, it seems a pretty good package, with a FAX/Printer-
driver.  On the negative side, is that it only handles Class 2 faxes (and
that spec isn't even finalized!!!), and I happen to have a Class 1 faxmodem,
so the program is just vaste of harddisk space...

The documentation says that they plan it for version 1.10, but they are
currently only at version 1.05, so I don't know when to put the program
to use...

I am interested in hearing if any of the coprocessed video cards (e.g.
S3, Weitek, TIGA chipsets) on the market have OS/2 2.0 drivers that take
advantage of them. A lot of the marketing hype about some of the
chipsets blathers on about how the limited functions which are
implemented were "optimized for Windows" but I cannot imagine that they
are *THAT* much different from low-level functions which OS/2 PM would
use. I would imagine that any speed gains in using local-bus cards would
automagically propagate to OS/2 2.0 systems, if the drivers existed.

Anyone with such, or who can comment on such?

Replacing the kernel with the newer one made that problem go away.

2 possible fixes are

(1)	Copy those files from your WINOS2 subdirectory to your WINWORD
	subdirectory, or

(2)	Reinstall WINWORD from a WIN-0S2 session.

I've seen talk about OS/2 not being able to handle DOS fax programs
because of its inability to support > 1000 interrupts/sec. Do these
restrictions also apply to Win-OS2? I currently use Procomm/Plus Win
and Winfax Pro. I would not want to have to buy new products for OS/2.
Will they work okay under Win-OS2 (it does not have to be seamless) and
will I be able to run at V32bis speed?
I would appreciate anybody who has had any experiences with this to
let me know.
Thanks
