subject: NEXTDEV.SYS

Whilst installing a new scsi adapter, I came across a device driver called
nextdev.sys, which basically sets the letter for the next device viz:

device=nextdev.sys z

This allowed a VDISK to be accessed as Z: . Unfortunately, it was a DOS
program. Does anyone know of anything comparable for OS/2? I would like to
have something like this for support situations, where I cannot know
beforehand which letter will be allocated for the VDISK. Anyone fancy
porting this little utility?
