Well... depends on what you mean by "in OS/2". We are using the
StarView C++ class library (by Star Division - they are the people that do
the StarWriter & Co), which is available (amongst others) for Win and
OS/2. It has a MDIApplication class, a MDIWindow class, and fully
implements MDI windows on all platforms - even on the Mac and under Unix
GUIs (although I've not tested that personally). 

Servus, Klaus
