Hi,

I would like to know how to spawn a DOS shell from OS2/1.3 command line.
Also, is it possible to shuffle windows (physical location with respect
to other windows) from the command line. Finally, is it possible to
intercept Ctrl-esc, Alt-esc and Alt-tab keys under OS2.

Thank you very much,
Hari Polu
