I thought OS/2 1.0 was ONLY console       mode, and graphics was only added in OS/2 1.1?              Also, with regards to the 16-bit Windows API. Did it not       also have a WriteFile() function or similar? If so, can you       not write to stdout? If Windows didn't natively support       such a concept, could another Windows app create a       window and do a pipe or whatever to capture the output       of stdout from such a program?              That is the technique being used in PdAndro:              https://github.com/jeanmarclienher/Pdos-PdAndro              BFN.
