I was just sitting here, designing a new background color for PM,
when suddenly it struck me that _everything_ I use for OS/2 is just a port
from DOS or UNIX. Is this the same all over? Has anyone any programs
that *require* OS/2's neat features, or is it, at this point, just a decent
GUI? I use EMACS, LaTeX (which is bound), and others, but it seems that there
isn't one software package which makes it any more than a luxury -- something
like 1-2-3 and dBase did for DOS...
Specifically, though, if anyone has some sort of mathematical software
(mathematica, macsyma, ANYTHING!) for OS/2, I think the platform would begin
to be more popular--especially in the university environment...
