>From Sander van Leeuwen on the Odin Users List:
The latest daily build no longer comes with msvcrt(20/40).dll. Our implementation
has always been far from complete and the cause of many problems with win32 applications.
Due to legal restrictions we can't include the msvcrt dlls, that Microsoft ships
with it's Visual C++ compiler, in the Odin installation package.
I've uploaded a win32 application to ftp.os2.org. (odin\daily\odinapp.zip) It's
an MFC based 'hello world' sample that comes with the original Microsoft MSVCRT
and MFC dlls. (redistributable binaries included with MS Visual C++) The zipfile
contains an InstallShield (win32) binaries for easy installation.
It's officially meant to be used in Windows 9x/NT only, but just happens to work
in Odin too. Simply run pe setup.exe to install the app and msvcrt + mfc dlls.

New version of Theseus released for Convienence Packages
A new version of Theseus has been released to support the Convienence Packages.
This new version is known as Theseus4. To get this new version, select Theseus4
to get the executable.
ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/ps/products/os2/fixes/v4.5warp/theseus4/thes4000.exe
Run the program in a new directory and see the README file for install instructions.
This version, unlike other versions, does not use a device driver, and you may need
to make changes in your CONFIG.SYS if you have a prior version of Theseus installed.
Details are in the README file.
This new version will work correctly only with Convienence Packages.
