So do I. While I don't use it much, especially since I stopped doing
Windows almost literally overnight, I did find it to be useful at times,
especially in collaborating with one of my classmates between class sessions.
I would like to see an OS/2 version, or, at the very least, a Java version
usable with OS/2. What is needed is for all those interested in such a thing
to contact Mirabilis and let them know that we would like to see an OS/2
port. They currently only support the various flavors of Windows, and a Mac
version is supposed to be coming soon. I would suggest checking out the
user's forum under the Java topic and start making some noise (polite noise
about OS/2).
