FWIW: my OS2 system is now eCS since 12 Aug 2012... but i brought all of my
base operations over from the previous Warp3 Connect system... that included
4OS2 2.51 and 4DOS 7.50...

i did try 4OS2 3.04a at one point on my Warp3 Connect installation but
switched back to 2.51 because of problems... i do not recall the details and
cannot locate my notes... it appears that the current release of the open
source 4OS2 is now 3.08 released 17 Nov 2011...


also previously someone mentioned that 4OS2 and 4DOS replace the command
interpreter... this is true but on an OS2 setup, 4OS2 can also replace the one
of the shells which it does on my system...

SET COMSPEC=X:\4OS2\4OS2.EXE
SET OS2_SHELL=X:\4OS2\4OS2.EXE

the above is standard on my system since deity created time ;)  i assume it is
the same for all OS2 systems that employ 4OS2...
