Porting C under UNIX to OS/2

[David Boles]

Just having a compiler that has UNIX libs is only a very meager
beginning.  Much code for UNIX boxes has the implicit assumption
in it that the size of a pointer is the same as the size of an int,
32 bits.  Removing this dependence is a monumental task.

The "small UNIX app" that was ported to the Mac using "we Think it's C"
must have been small indeed to have not run into the pervasive bugs
in the libraries.
