When running from an OS/2 command prompt, "pe" is used
for Win32 graphics programs, and "pec" is used to run
console mode programs. "pec" does not open a new window
and it looks totally like it stays in the OS/2 command prompt.

But I may be mistaken.

Crikey. I thought that OS/2 2.0 had done a total switch to 32-bit.

Ok, thanks for the tip. If that's what I need to use, so be it.
It will all be hidden in my C library anyway.

Thanks. Paul.
