Hello all.

For years I had run my BBS under DOS/DESQview, depending heavily on some
utilities like Norm Patriquin's PCopy and PDelete (sort of like a SysOp's
"Swiss Army knife").  After converting to OS/2-CP2 I kept some of
my main batch files (after some adjustments) to run in VDMs.  It has
recently come to mind that I actually have the full source code for all the
Patriquin utilities.  I was wondering if it would be practical to consider
doing a recompilation to run as a native 16bit OS/2 application?  I am not
a programmer, but I think these are written in C or C++.

Opinions?  Options?

Best regards,
Marc
