I too have an OS/2 version of DELTREE.

I never used the "DOS DELTREE" because I've written my own DOS DELTREE version 
which works under any DOS version (including DOS sessions under OS/2, and on
HPFS partitions too). I don't put crap version checks in my programs.

Disk caching should work transparently, so any program can work with any disk
cache without knowing it.
