   Understandable.

   Which, of course, is a big aspect of the issue: being able to develop and/or 
test MakeNL on all of the platforms people want to run it on...

   Now, I have started on a testing framework for MakeNL but I've no idea when 
I'll have even something operational for just basic testing. I myself do not 
currently have an OS/2 system available (though I do still have some 
installation media...).  I will have a Windows system available (at least in a 
VM) and so will be able to run the testing there as well as for Linux (Debian & 
Ubuntu).
