- Tim! Cut and paste some 500 cards...?
-
- Someone pointed out to me the wlo110 package. I found it on a mirror of hobbes
- and will give it a try.
-
- On a related matter: I seem to be unable to migrate the Win/Os2 cardfile.exe
- program, i.e. to create a single icon that calls this program. With
- the migrate procedure, cardfile.exe is not found. With the templates, the
- cardfile.exe program can be created as a Dos or Os/2 program and of course
- then dies on calling time. The Win/Os2 entry is greyed out.
-
- So the only way to call the Windows applets seems to be to call a full Windows
- session. On the other hand, with OS/2 2.0 I could create that single icon for
- just one applet (cardfile). Anything that I am missing?
