This release candidate only contains three changes compared to RC4. 1. A fix to the linker that prevents a crash when processing certain library files. 2. A fix to the Windows GUI tools so that they can launch the HTML help files more reliably. 3. A fix to the implementation of _log that should only impact certain DOS 386 users. Because these changes do involve a modified linker it seemed appropriate to go through a release candidate cycle. Unless the changes above broke something it is my expectation that this RC will become the final release. Please review the release candidate and post any questions or problems to the contributor's newsgroup. If nothing comes up in a week or so, I will lock down 1.9 for good. :) Peter -- For a choice in the future of personal computing, Join VOICE - http://www.os2voice.org [Moderator's note: All posts are sent without guarantee to the accuracy of the content.
