See the OS/2 FAQ List for a suggestion on how to have 102 line

The disappearing characters happen always. If you use Boot Manager you will
not notice it because there is nothing to disappear by that stage. What
they are for is to get rid of the memory count on PS/2's (for some

If you can get the icons into a GIF file, then transfer the file to os/2
and view it -  there's a shareware program called nikon2 that will let
you outline an icon or other image on the PM screen and put it in the
clipboard.  It'll even pop up an editor after doing so.  

Once it's in the clipboard you can paste into the icon editor and save.

As it is under UNIX? Oh, well. Never mind. You've installed the service pack,

Well, I can think of a LONG & COMPLICATED way of doing it; requiring
several programs for the Mac, Windows, and OS/2.

1. Display the icon you want on the screen on the Mac. Then use some kinda
of Mac screen capture program and save it as GIF.

2. Go into Windows and view the GIF. Then load up IconMaster for Windows.
And use their camera utility to take a "snap shot" of Mac icon you want and
save it as a Window .ICO file.

3. Go into OS/2 and covert Window .ICO file to OS/2 .ICO file using the
Windows -> OS/2 icon converter.

Now, I'm not even sure if the Mac icons are even the same SIZE as Windows/
OS/2 icons.

Who knows? I don't know Macs very well; maybe there's an option of saving
a Mac ICO as an OS/2 icon just by pulling down a menu and clicking on an
option!

"...direction is controlled by printer 'CONTROL' register as follows:
	bit 5 of CONTROl register

If I set the jumper for bidirectional operation, am I depending on the

Thanks Larry. Yes I did mean MDA nut now I have 1024X760X256 VGA but I'm
still wondering at this late date if it's worth installing. I want the
HPFS and OS/2 as my only operating system which means I have to make
backups, reformat and partition, plus put up with what I understand to be
a pretty buggy 2.0 version, find the service pack and any other required
fix files and then very likely repeat most of this in a month or two when OS/2
2.1 comes out.

I am dying to try it out but maybe I should wait for 2.1.
My only attempt to install resulted in the obvious hardware configuration
error message (can't find country.sys). Even with only 5 M of RAM I should
no longer have any hardware configuration problems so I would need to get
this sorted out and this will probably be fixed on 2.1. Does anybody know
when 2.1 is due? If it's too long I may go ahead and try it. If I go
solely to the HPFS file system is there a chance that I may not be able to
run some DOS programs? Decisions decisions.

Hold down SHIFT while dragging the border(s) until the window is full
