Based on following news posting I wonder what last is said regarding this topic; actually it would be great to have this tool for OS2. Or is there anything else to use that works out without having to 2000 switches on a CLI based apps?

From: Jason Stefanovich

BigWarpGuy contacted the author of VCDGear, a very popular, multiplatform vcd building program to ask if the OS/2 version would be updated.

The latest Console version is v1.76 build 031231 (Console), the last version for OS/2 is 1.5. There is currently no port of the Windows only gui version.

Any idea what would be required to compile it? I mean I have some limited experience programming in C++ for OS/2 and am currently working with OpenWatcom on increasing my knowledge. Maybe we could get a small team together to look at the possibility of compiling it?

Well, you know when you are the requestor...or beggar, as it may be. It's kinda in your interest to keep gently poking the person till they deliver.

I will do my best to acquire the source code and deliver (via e-mail or cdr or diskette [depending on size] to whomever desires it (once I receive an e-mail, or physcial address to send it to). My e-mail address is jerseywarp@os2world.com .

I sent a couple of e-mails to the VCDGear site owner about the source code and that there are those who wish to compile it for OS/2. I was told that the VCDGear site ( http://www.vcdgear.com ) is being updated. I am not sure what that has to do with the source code request but I will check it out.
