Steve, if you have enough disk space you could always have both
operating systems on at the same time while you get set up.

I've just installed Linux on my main machine - I also have
MS-DOS / Win3.11 and O/S2 on it.

The linux section is partioned but I've never felt the need to
go HPFS under OS2 even though OS2 is my main workhorse of preference
so thats still on a dos partition.

I swap between them using the OS2 boot manager  which does the job
simply and effectively.

I'm assuming here that Win95 will co-exist with Warp on the same
partition - I don't know of any reason why it shouldnt but you might
want to ask here first - someone will know for sure.

Doing it this way you can get your OS sorted out and only then
start worrying about warp specific applications while you use all your
old ones under win/warp/95 or whatever works out of the box.

Personally I use a mixture of warps dialer and Netscape and use
good old qedit to write mail.

I don't use any scripts or anything with the dialer - except the log
on sequence for demon in the dialers log in sequence window which is:

                       \r
                       ogin:
                       [LOGINID]
                       assword:
                       otocol:
                       PPP,idle=0
                       HELLO

Copy this exactly and put your password and details
in the windows above this one and you should be ok
with the warp dialer. Once logged on you can then
run Netscape or whatever in a win/os2 session.
