- About all you need to know can be found in the OS/2 1.3 toolkit documentation,
- in the Programming Guide, or in the online documentation. Additionally, try
- "Client Server Programming with OS/2 EE" by Orfali & Harkley, Published by
- Van Nostrand Reinhold. Also, If you have specific questions, email them to
- me, as I have been through this before.

- >What about portability issues re: 1.3 -> 2.0?
-
- You cannot directly port Named Pipe API calls from 1.3 to 2.0, as they have
- changed the API calls. It's not too great a task to rewrite the code for
- 2.0 tho. Again, there is a second edition of "Client Server..." which addresses
- OS/2 2.0.
