  Since V.3.2 will run Xenix executables, I'm not sure I have any
interest in getting COFF binaries. If you sell libraries, I can see that
it would be desirable, but otherwise... who cares?

  Having tried a number of COFF files under 2.3.1 I am pretty sure that
you would be able to run the software development package from any V.3.2
under Xenix to produce COFF.

  I looked, but I guess I'll wait for SCO3.2 and/or Open Workbench or
whatever. I want NFS and X, but I need reliability more than capability.
I don't want to cast aspersions on anyone's tech support, but SCO
doesn't have the worst in the industry.
