As with so many things.  *sigh*  I was just thinking the other day, in fact,
that it's a crying shame all the DR app source code was lost (warehouse
flood in Monterey, from memory!)

Interesting; I didn't realise FlexOS had been FlexOS under DRI (if you see
what I mean).  This also caught my eye: 

: GEM – Graphical UI Update designer

I wonder when that was -- I can think of a few possibilities (minor changes
in the GEM/1 to GEM/3 era; ViewMAX I, II and III; GEM/5?) but it'd be
interesting to know what drove which changes when.

Oh, and hello all; I've not quite disappeared yet!  Although I have the
motivation of a dead snail lately; that's pretty close.

Regards,
