--OS2Start--

A Clipper function to allow a Clipper program running under OS/2 2.1 to be able
to start another OS/2 session (OS/2, Windows, or DOS).

Files:

CLIPSTRT.EXE - Test program for OS2Start.  "ClipStrt /?" for options. (5.2c)
CLIPSTRT.PRG - Clipper 5.x source for above program.
OS2START.ASM - ASM source for OS2Start function
OS2START.OBJ - OBJ file of above ASM file.  This OBJ file should work with
               all flavors of clipper from '87 thru 5.2x
README.TXT   - duuuu?!?

I hope that those running Clipper under OS/2 will be able to use this routine
to it's maximum potential.  Run those report writers, sorts, indexes, etc. in
the background in another DOS session -- Where they belong!!  Just think, no
more waiting....well almost anyway.

These programs are provided as is, with no warranty or guaranty said, implied
or imagined.  They are also provided with no charge to you (although if someone
does send me some ca$h I won't refuse it). Those of you that do use this code
(or modified code) in your own commercial applications that are then charged
for, should provide me with some sort of compensation for my effort to your end
product.

I also ask that if you modify and/or use these files, please leave reference
to the original author (me) in your the code; and specificaly state that
it should not be removed.

Please feel free to distribute these files (unmodified) anywhere, anytime, to
anyone as long as no charge what-so-ever is attached.
  
If you have any questions or comments, I can be found looming in the Clipper
and OS2USER forums on CIS, or send me private e-mail (my CIS# is 70511,3626).

Enjoy!
