Hello Peter!

Was it a Win16 or Win32 program? Everything I've heard about DAPIE so far
is that it is "only" for porting Win32 apps to OS/2. However,
there are not so many differences in Win16 and Win32 API's so that it
wouldn't be difficult to port Win16 apps, too. I have a Windows program
which has 11000+ lines of code and I had to enclose only 90 lines with
'#ifdef __NT__' when I compiled it with 32bit compiler.
