All the propaganda surrounding the release of OS/2 2.0 has piqued my interest
in getting a new operation system.  I do have one question though........

I do a fair amount of development on DOS platforms and am attempting Windows
development in the near future.  I was thumbing through my Microsoft 6.0
manual(s) the other night and was reading about the OS/2 libs etcetera included
with MSC 6.0.  My question is.......

     Is what is included in the MSC compiler sufficient for basic, protected
     mode OS/2 development (I realize no PM stuff is included) -  If not,
     what else will I need?????

     I guess what I am asking is what is the bare minimum software requirements
     (based on MSC 6.0 or the DJGPP 32 bit port of GNU) for creating
    protected mode apps in OS/2.

   Any replys appreciated - thanks in advance
