I know that Microsoft's MASM 6.0 comes with a file which has all the OS/2 1.x
calls in it so you can create OS/2 1.x programs.  Is there any way to get
Borland's Turbo Assembler to do the same thing?

I suppose it would be possible to lay down the calls, but the hard part would
be getting it to create an .EXE file that OS/2 can run.  Is there a utility
that let's you create a DOS-type .EXE file (but with OS/2 calls) and change
it into an OS/2 .EXE program?

What about letting you create 32-bit programs?
