Some sense of deja vu here as I may have looked at building the OS/2
version years ago but don't recall getting very far.

Good news: After about an hour I got the OS/2 version to build using Watcom
10.5. OpenWatcom 1.9 should also work, but I haven't tested it.

Bad news: Building it required removing the nodelist lookup code as it
depends on the proprietory (and evidently still closed source) Mix C
Database Toolkit. Most of this stems from the unnecessary complexity of the
old V7 nodelist format, although having said that, IIRC the OS/2 version of
BinkleyTerm can work with V7 nodelists and is entirely open source. Still,
whoever decided on that format all those years ago was a complete
masochist.

Good news: It runs!

Bad news: It does indeed still have Y2K bugs which require fixing, but this
isn't difficult provided they can all be found again.

Good news: I'm inclined to put the source on GitHub.

Bad news: The OS/2 version crashes on startup when there are more than ~127
columns in the OS/2 Command Prompt window. It looks like it's using
unsigned short in the code somewhere instead of unsigned int.

Bad news: I can't get the Watcom Debugger to show the source code to allow
me to step through the code. I'm probably doing something wrong. The
OpenWatcom build might work though.
