The following archive showed up here yesterday:

dos2os2.arj    47078 12-17-95* Global Data Area & DOS2OS2 API. Helps DOS
                               and Windows developers migrate their
                               systems to the OS/2 platform. Allows DOS,
                               Windows, and OS/2 programs to read and
                               write to a small 1K data area that is
                               common to all programs. ($59)
