If you order the full version of FaxWorks for OS/2 you'll find it
very nice. I  can receive/send faxes while XyWriting (with,
say, two different XyWrites  open). Some nice touches are being
able to print from Xy to the fax  program using an HPlaser
printer file and being able to convert a fax to a  text file for
editing in Xy. Memory resources are not a problem and I've
haven't crashed in months. If faxes come in while I'm XyWriting
nothing  bad happens, even if I have FaxWorks set to auto-print
and XyWrite is  printing too. Very robust.
