As you may know, users of the Watcom C compiler can not even compile
and link "hello.c" without a library named OS2386.LIB. The enclosed
batch file makes that library. I downloaded it from the Watcom Tech
Support BBS at (519) 884-2103 (Fidonet node 221/186).
Programmers will still have the problem of missing include files. The
theory is that everyone should purchase IBM's Toolkit and Workframe,
which have the library and include files. However, most programmers I
know want to be able to open the box, sit down, and begin programming.
I is problably sufficient to use include files from previous versions
of OS/2 until the Workframe package arrives.
I haven't tried this solution with other compilers, but it might help.
