That's right, but I run GEOS mostly in foreground, and if I swich to 
background, than I have nothing active in GEOS.
I use the taskswitcher from Marcus Groeber for OS/2.

Never tried, but certainly right.

Right, I heard about.

I dropped down WARP 4 for the same and other reasons, but why use WARP 4, 
when I am very satisfied with WARP 3, 22th fixpack, which is very stable, 
even NETSCAPE OS/2 runs very fine.
Tschuess,
