 GC> Your "PM calls" is a bit out of context.  You have to use
DosDevIOCtl
 PC>  Thanks for sharing that.  It compiles under emx 0.8h too.

Anytime.  After browsing it again, I see no reason it shouldn't compile
under any of the decent OS/2 compilers.

 PC>  I can really use this since my %$#{at} keyboard locks
 PC> randomly, sometimes  unplugging the keyboard the plugging it
 PC> back it unlocks it, but also resets  the delay and repeat

If I had invested about 3 more minutes in it, you could have had a much
more flexible tool able to accept command-line parameters.  I wasn't sure
why exactly you needed such a beast, though.

 PC> rates.  And I'm running CMD.EXE as my WPS, so loading 
 PC> PMSHELL just to change the kbd rate is alot of trouble.

That's an understatement!

 PC>  Thought this problem would be fixed in Warp V3, but its
 PC> still here. 

You're the first that *I'VE* heard to have had a problem with the keyboard.
You sure it's not a loose connection somewhere (not an attempt to insult
your intelligence, just jar some thoughts).
