I think the win32s thing is the key, since that application
(http://www.filmworks.com/) will also choke on the win32s.

I am wondering if this can be solved by simply setting the path or dpath
variables differently.  It seemed that win32s.386 could not be found.

Seattle Filworks gave me a workaround since the windows installation
program was refusing to set it up under WinOS2, but they didn't have
anything further.  When I get to start the program by fiddling with
default directories etc, I can still get the system to tell me that
win32s was not installed properly.  Basically, the reboot part of the
installation is missing, and it could be that the last step of the
installation was not done.  Any hacks?
