We haven't said that we won't do one...

We do ship a macro with TSE Pro that will handle CUA style marking.  It's 
called CUAMARK.

One of our beta testers has released a couple of macros for OS/2 support.  
The 
files are available from our Web/FTP site, and CIS.  Here's the descriptions:
os2clp08.zip    13138  11-21-95  OS2CLIP.S Version 0.8, Nov 19, 1995 -
                                 Clipboard server and TSE interface macro to
                                 access the OS/2 clipboard from TSE. Works by
                                 using a native server appli- cation
                                 (CSERVER.EXE) to get access to the clipboard
                                 contents. The server pro- gram is started
                                 from within TSE auto- matically on macro
                                 start up. Only text entries  supported. Cut,
                                 paste and copy operations are possible. Now
                                 also functional under OS/2 Warp!
os2cmd.zip      55385  09-27-96  OS2CMD.ZIP contains a TSE-Pro 2.5 macro with
                                 a utility, the combination of which allows a
                                 TSE-Pro user to issue an OS/2 (2.1 or 
igher)
                                 command from TSE and to return to the
                                 originating TSE session with the captured
                                 screen output from the OS/2 command in a new
                                 file.
Hope this helps!
