Hello all.
For years I had run my BBS under DOS/DESQview, depending heavily on some
utilities like Norm Patriquin's PCopy and PDelete (sort of like a SysOp's
"Swiss Army knife"). After converting to OS/2-CP2 I kept some of my main batch
files (after some adjustments) to run in VDMs. It has recently come to mind
that I actually have the full source code for all the Patriquin utilities. I
was wondering if it would be practical to consider doing a recompilation to run
as a native 16bit OS/2 application? I am not a programmer, but I think these
are written in C or C++.
