I want to work with CW the same way I do with other applications. If you don't support it yet, OK - accepted. But one important advantage of OS/2 (among many others) is document centered working. I allways do so, never starting a program and then load a document. There are associations for certain documents and double clicking on it works perfectly. No need to know, where the program is located. You can start working an a file imediatly (<- ...sorry for my bad spelling I'm German). Thats more than convenience, thats the way I work, and I dont want to change the way I work just because of software incababilities. I'd love to see You supporting the OS/2 basics, and think it will be no problem for skillful programmers like You.
