I think IBM is encouraging the term "DAX" to describe the Developer API
Extensions, not "DAPIE". FWIW...

Very true.
>And I'd buy an OS/2 license, though not a Win32 license.
You're not the only one. I can't run a Win32 version here, and frankly
don't care if one EVER exists. But a native OS/2 version would be very
useful to me.
