Not quite. The significance of Dynaloader is that you can run functions
inside OS/2 native DLL's from Perl. Very powerful. Effectively, you can
use any OS/2 DLL that was ever written if you know the entry points and
calling parameters.

BTW, the original script will work as intended if you get a copy of
RXU.DLL and replace YDAUTIL with RXU. YDAUTIL was renamed to RXU back in
'96 or so.

Having fun?
