I am programming with Smalltalk V/PM.  In order to access certain
functions (mostly in DOSCALLS) the ordinal number is needed to
access the function.  The EXEHDR utility is not helpful for this
problem.  There are only a handful of functions whose names appear
in the DLL.  I've managed to use a hex editor on the os2.lib file
and figure out where to get the ordinal number for a function.  What
I haven't been able to easily figure out is what the best way would
be to dump the ordinal information from the os2.lib file into an
easily read format.  Someone has mentioned that the second part of
a lib listing shows the functions in ordinal order.  As long as there
aren't any gaps in the assignment of ordinal numbers examining this
list with an editor that shows line numbers would be one way to go.

You mention a file called 'exehdr.h'.  I have both the IBM PM Toolkit
as well as the Microsoft toolkit (version 1.2 for both).  I haven't
found the file you mention.  Where would I find this file?
