Description:

A 32-bit Unicode Console API, with Developers' Toolkit, which allows one to eliminate one more 16-bit vestige from OS/2: the 16-bit thunking code that has to be included in any otherwise 32-bit application that uses the existing 16-bit Console API that is supplied with IBM OS/2 (a.k.a. the VIO, MOU, and KBD subsystems) even in the very latest versions. By using the 32-bit Unicode Console API, applications can be made purely 32-bit (as long as they don't call any other 16-bit APIs and don't use the 16-bit Console API internally within their compiler's runtime libraries, of course). Also included is an entrypoint-compatible replacement for the broken 32TEXT package from IBM that used to be on the DevCon CD-ROMs. (conapi-1-0-3.zip)
