What does a dos C/C++ programmer need to get to move to OS/2?  I've been
given a list of five or six compilers, and will probably end up using GNU
(because it's free) at least until they finally debug Borland C++ for OS/2.
 
Anyway, my problem is, I'm aware of a lot of new function calls that start
with the word DOS (DosCreateThread, etc...) that have nothing whatsoever to
do with dos emulation, and I'm wondering how do you learn them?  (No, I'm
not shelling out $800 bucks to get IBM's red books.  If I had $800 bucks to
waste I'd get a magneto-optical drive, or 16 megs of ram, or...)
 
I've heard that some guy named peltzold is supposed to have written a good
book.  Is it, and what's it called?
 
Just general reccomendations from people who know this stuff would be nice...
