Sorry about the posting of the product description of PCSA for OS/2. I have been told that is bad form because of the commercial aspects, and that it should go to comp.newprod.

I found the information useful *and* I don't regularly read comp.newprod. As long as people don't get *too* carried away, I wouldn't mind seeing the odd announcement -- after all one can always look at the message title/subject and simply decide not to bother to read the file. It's not as if comp.os.os2 is clogged with messages. (Now it's my turn to apologize!) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Douglas Baer, University of Western Ontario, London, Canada N6A 5C2 Internet: BAER@UWO.CA Bitnet: BAER@UWOVAX

Be that as it may, we found the posting very useful. If it had been posted to comp.newprod, we would have appreciated at least a reference in comp.os.os2 so that we would have known to look there. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | David C.
