Hi Bryan--

    The latest beta of IBM's OS/2 assembler (ALP.EXE) and associated
on-line documentation comes on DevCon (IBM Developer Connection).  Ditto
the latest version of IBM's new free-form linker ILINK.EXE.  (The old
IBM/MS linker, LINK386.EXE is included in Warp 3, as I remember.)  You
also get the Developer Toolkit that includes the assembler interfaces to
the OS/2 API calls.

    DevCon is a CD-ROM subscription service.  List price is $199/year,
which includes at least four volumes.  Currently, each volume includes
five CDs pertaining to OS/2 (plus one for AIX) and a hard-copy
newsletter.  The most recent volume (11) also includes a fully licensed
limited-function (doesn't do Windows and doesn't have any hard-copy
documentation) version of Warp 4 (Merlin).  Phone 1-800-633-8266 to
subscribe.

    Hope this helps.

          --Murray
