-FM/2 seems much slower than previous versions.
-The Find Buffer in FM/2 has been reworked to make it user

-However, most users will need to reset the buffer by going

 Known problems/shortcomings:
 ===========================
 
-- FM/2 does not properly report sizes of some files with
-long name resident on Win95/NT drives.
-
-- File List Container fails to fill after drive change
-SYS0039 error.
-
-- Tree switching on Focus/Directory Change appears to be
-slower than expected.
-
-- Access to LS120 and FAT32 drives may be slower than expected
-
-- Icon display in Directory Container does not always match
-WPS icons
-
-- Spurious WPS Objects Handles may be created during some
-operations
-
-- Trying to run Global.exe from the command line in 4OS2
-(perhaps other shells) results in the execution of 4OS2's "Global"
-command. Global.exe can be run by placing it in quotes or
-prefixing it with *. See 4OS2's documentation for more information.
-
-- As with any OS/2 program significant changes (such as our
-change to OpenWatcom) will result in the incompatibility of
-older (VAC) exes with new dlls and vice versa. Attempting to run
-OpenWatcom exes with a VAC dll loaded in memory or in your
-libpath ahead of the new version will result in a SYS3175 in
-popuplog.os2. The reverse gives a SYS2070. If you experience these
-problems search your libpath for fm3dll.dll and remove or rename
-it. Your libpath should have "." (without the quotes) as your
-first entry to minimize the likelihood of this problem. FM/2's
-installer does not add the FM/2 directory to the libpath.
