Hi Rich
-> The greatest thing I've found is the Northgate Omnikey Ultra
-> keyboard.  It can be programmed to do ANYTHING.  I have it set up
-> with sticky Alt, Ctl, and Shift keys, macros on the extra set of
-> function keys, and "windows" keys set for ctl-esc and alt-esc.
Thanks .. I've seen ads in PC Mag for these keyboards but haven't been
able to locate one in SA .. I'll try the fax number & see if there is a
local agent - if not I will import one.
-> Tip:  you've got to boot to DOS to program it, or borrow someone's
-> DOS or Windows machine.  Once programmed, put it on your OS/2
-> machine; it's beautiful.
Noted .. booting from DOS is not a problem :-)
-> For drag 'n dropping, get Gibbon's GCP DoubleClick; you can set the
-> middle button as a lock.  Available on hobbes as   GCPCLK10.ZIP.
Will get the file right away.
Many thanks for all your trouble
Regards .. Alan
