- Requires OS/2 version 1.2 or above to run.

- F10 in ALT-V File management function only exits to
original directory.
- The /S parameter is not necessary under OS/2. For example you
can just type PSTAT | LIST
- The ^F send formfeed command has been commented out because the
spooler also inserts formfeeds.
- Mouse support is not active in a PM windowed session.
- When mouse support is active in LIST, "Shelling" to other full
screen applications that use the mouse may require that
you CTRL-BREAK out of the second application.

- COM device name has been moved next to "WHAT" eyecatcher.

However, if you only use ZIP files, put the following FV.CMD
in your path:
PKUNZIP -v %1
Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
