The documentation for WinIsVisible() (OS/2 Programmer's reference vol
II pp 286-7) says firstly:

	The return value is TRUE if the specified window _and_ all its
	parent windows have the WS_VISIBLE style bit set. The return
	value is FALSE if the window is not visible.

but secondly:

	When the WS_VISIBLE style bit is set, the window is shown and
	subsequent drawing into the window is displayed as long as the
	window _or_ any of the windows in the parent chain have the
	WS_VISIBLE style.

Is the 'or' in the second quotation a misprint for 'and', or is the
'and' in the first a misprint for 'or'?

Thanks for any clarification.
