Yes it is possible and I am working on a set of classes for it. I am having
problems with my Pentium system which is in the shop and find that my
486DX50 system is just to slow for development. I will be posting as soon
as I get my system back and can get back to work. BTW I am currently
working in OS/2 not WINDOWS! If you are interested send some mail.
