I'm up for the "Programmer's Help Desk" idea (see below), if you like the
idea.  Send me email (ASAP if you have a problem with this.  Otherwise,
I'll start accepting questions now).

I say .INF, since they're compressed and since we'll be able to include 
figures, diagrams, etc.  You'll also be able to write a hypertext linked
table-of-contents.  :)

I like the title.  If you need a logo, and have a copy of PmDraw from the 
CD-ROM (is it at software.watson.ibm.com?), then I'll draw you one.

---------------------------------------

Assuming that Steve accepts my offer of the "Programmer's Help Desk" 
column, I will start accepting questions for the first issue.  Send them
to this address - os2man@panix.com - and include in the body of the note
something to the effect of "this is for the magazine"; otherwise, I will
probably answer you directly and no one else will benefit.  Also, this is
so I don't have to send you email requesting permission to print the
question and the answer I find.

Cheers,
Q
