If the POSIX device file interface is the only major hurdle, then I may not have much to worry about. The purpose of the port isn't to allow the porting of programs that already use OSS. It's to push OS/2 forward with modern soundcard support. I'm not so sure that I will be able to support OSS's build environment, though. I will research to see if i can gather what's normally needed. Though, I may just end up trying to move the whole build system over to OpenWatcom.

OSS is not bound to Poxix. However the API depends on the Posix style device file interface (/dev/xxxxx and open/close/read/write/ioctl/etc). If this kind of interface is not available then applications may require some OS specific tweaking. Best regards, Hannu --- 2.12.2010 15.58, Dee Sharpe wrote: > That was a horrible typo.
