Following up on my own post :-)
I've discovered that the Perl tool kit for Java (www.oroinc.com) does not work at all in
my OS/2 system (Warp 4.0, fp5, 32meg, Java 1.1.4 with refresh). All packages from that
site work fine under NetRexx on NT and Sun Solaris, and all packages apart from Perl
work fine in Os/2. I don't know why OS/2 fails with the Perl tools (cpu usage goes to max
and programs never finish) but it is disappointing.
