Works fine but only if Ensemble is in the foreground. Put it in the
background, and OS/2 suspends the "graphical" DOS session.
If I run Ensemble at 16 colours and OS/2 at 16 colours it works fine
in the background. Change OS/2 to 256 colours and it stops working.
This is a known limitation of OS/2. Documented in many places. 
OS/2 version 2.1 "Using the operating system" manual page 329.
OS/2 Warp Unleashed, page 501 paragraph under TIP.
I am currently using Ensemble with Warp 4. The combo is workable, but
not perfect.
regards,
Doug
