If the code compiles for OS/2, the code should also compile for Win32.  The
real question will be if it still compiles (and properly runs) under a DOS
(16 bit or with 32 bit extenders) after we're done.  Yes, you may have to
tweak some make files to get it to compile in your enviornment.  I was
unsuccessful in getting dmake to run in my environment, which Scott's Max
3.01 source code release relied on for the make sub-system.  Now that we
have a GNU make working under Linux, I'll probably go with that the next
time.

Part of the reason I believe Scott used DMAKE was that he could cross
compile Max and Squish for all platforms on a single machine.  His last
machine was Win32 based, using an old Watcom compiler (no longer for sale),
and some other old tools.  I don't expect to cross compile the code any
time soon.  If we can get a good compile with Open Watcom, it may become an
option again.....  If I use the EMX port of GCC for compiling under OS/2, I
might be able to cross compile the OS/2 version on a Linux machine.....  

Any way....  Given enough time....

Take care.....
