  I have a question: I'm trying to convert (or port whatever you want to call it..) a DOS ASCII editor to OS/2. It uses the int86 call to access video mode and whatever else.
    Now , someone told I had to convert this calls to their respective API in OS/2. Does anyone know where can I get a "good" reference to the API calls. ( I do have the CSET/2 books).
    Another question: I found a book in the library called "Converting Applications to OS/2". This is a 1989 book. Does anyone know if the stuff in it works!! 
Has anyone ever seen this book?? Does anyone has the source code for the translation codes?
    Replies are welcomed!!!!  Please respond using E-mail!!

						Regards!!!!
