>Does it run *only* under OS/2 or does it also run under MS-DOS (with >or without MSWindows)? It *only* runs under MS-DOS (or DR-DOS, if you prefer), but it comes with an OS/2 utility allowing it to start native OS/2 programs. This utility is OS2EXECD.EXE written by Eberhard Mattes. To use it, start os2execd.exe from an OS/2 command prompt; it will open a window and wait for messages. Start TeXShell and modify e.g. the Options!Output! Previewer to use DVIpm, append an exclamation mark '!' to the program name. Now press F8 (with an primary or edit file set, of course) and TeXShell will send message to os2execd.exe causing it to start DVIpm with the required arguments and environment. After termination of DVIpm os2execd.exe sends the exit code back to TeXShell, and TeXShell is active again. Everything ok? Start os2execd.exe with the -v option (verbose) to see the messages sent between it and TeXShell. J"urgen
