Dear Group:

As some of you might recall, my mother died last year. My sisters, who
are co-owners with me, want to sell the house later this year. I've
been clearing out of the basement, items I will not keep anymore.

One of you, sometime back asked me for the contents of the diskette
that accompanied one of the books that I have. (I've already sent that
disk image out, "over the wire".) 

It occurred to me, just tonight, that others of you MIGHT have an
interest in my books. (I generally think most of you are not interested
in older versions because you've already been 'through' the early
"teething age" of OS/2 and, therefor, are ONLY interested in "the
latest and greatest".) I do NOT have time to list everything, so here
are JUST the programming ones:

Maruzzi, Stefano; _OS/2 2.1 Work Place Shell Programming_; Random House

Blain, Derrel & Delimon, Kurt & English, William Jeffery; _Real World
Programming for OS/2 2.11_ (2nd Ed.); SAMS Publishing

Knight, Stephen & Ryan, Jeffery; _Programming the OS/2 Warp Version3
GPI_; John Wiley & Sons

Panov, Katherine & Salomon,Jr, Larry & Panov, Arthur; _The Art of OS/2
Warp Programming_; John Wiley & Sons

The software (1.3, several 2.x versions including a 2.88MB diskette
version) and a 1.3 USER book are to go to Wm. Walsh (of PS/2 website
'fame'), who resides in downstate (south of me) Farmer's City, IL. (I'm
in Des Plaines just N-W of Chicago, IL.)

There are numerous early OS/2 - generally 2.+ -  books, as
well. (The three 1.x  system and programming books have been 'claimed'
by H. Frommert of Ger., already.) 

MOST of the software and books (2.x & Warp 3 related), I'm intending to
take to "Software Re-Runs" store in Naperville, IL which is just S-W of
Chicago (in a global sense).

These MAY BE taken as early as TOMORROW; possibly as late as Saturday.

PLEASE let me KNOW IF you have ANY outstanding requests that I MIGHT
satisfy! (YOU'll  be paying postage!)

Sincerely,

Thomas Clayton

BTW, I'm keeping my Warp4es (Merlin-es), Obj. Dt.s; Graham Util.s,
various Hobbes et Al. CODs; OS/2 Mag.s; and EA mag.s. Oh, and this
won't be a surprise to James Cannon: A Warp3C(blue). Tom's(Warp)Pet
will continue to run THAT into the for-see-able future. :-)

T.C.
