6.00.18 was the last gamma version that Harald Harms released.  The more recent
6.xx versions released by Bob Seaborn do not have the Universal version
available.

I probably should drop the universal version and go with the straight OS/2
version.  I've been reluctant to do that, because I don't have an OS/2 version
key, only my DOS key and the Universal version key.  Also, due to some file
format changes along the way, I basically would have to dump my entire current
setup and recreate it.  The current conversion utilities don't seem to be able
to convert my setup to the latest version.  What I'm using now works, so it's
fairly low on the priority list to change over.

Regards,

Andrew
