And another of Mr. Frank's messages said that SmartWords would run under OS/2.


Puzzling. The Windows version that OS/2 uses is Windows 3.1. Nota Bene
programmers have said that they cannot recommend the Windows version of
Nota Bene, which is based on the SmartWords engine, for anything but
Windows 95+; they've had difficulties with Win 3.1 but hope to resolve them
later on.

And your TTG website, in the Free Software section, shows a SmartWords
demo, still TK, that requires Win 95.

Will SmartWords in fact run on my machine, with OS/2 and Win 3.1?

TIA for clarification,
