[Jumping in here, if neither of you mind]:

It's very possible to have a general facility with various features, to
still have much to learn about many others (even some basic ones),
and to be totally ignorant regarding others. Example #1: I know squat
about Peer. Never had it installed before, until eCS made that decision
for us. Example #2: I was unfamiliar with BEGINLIBPATH, until
you recently gave me some instructions that included using it. (And now
I'd like to know if there is something for adding on to PATH on the
fly, without the need to reboot, that is *not* strictly limited to .DLLs,
as the Online Help tells me BEGINLIBPATH happens to be.)

In fact, let me say that I regret there seems to be no feature for OS/2 itself,
akin to the "Did You Know ? / Tip of the Day" we have in certain app.s
when they first come up, such as in PMView 3.x. I'm sure there are
enough of us who could literally learn something new from it every day.
