1:  I have read that all traces of BCPL are being expunged from AmigaDos 1.4.
My question is, does that mean that BPTR's will also go away?  If so, then
won't a great deal of software break?  If not, then what will the average
programmer see as being different?

2:  Several people said at one time that they had code that would would
handle listboxes (not another damn file selector but actual listboxes).  If
any of those people are going to ever post their code then NOW would be a
very good time for me :-)
