 Have you had a look at OS/2 Class Library V1.20 (1/16/96) - a freeware
 C++ class library via Germany (not Open Class Lib from IBM) ?
 
 OCL120.ZIP  5,xxx,xxx  Now in all English/source - maybe a nice
 library for hobby users ?  Be aware this could all stop at anytime
 or someone else take it over ..... but for the hobby programmer to
 learn (use) C++ ????  All OS/2 C++ compilers are able to use this
 library.
 
 I know nothing about it - just unzipped it now.  It takes me back to
 using Zinc 1.0 (as a hobby programmer at $200)  but Zinc 4.x is now
 near $2000 and climbing  !

 Let me know ?
