The non-X related parts of Poplog will work fine. The OLIT specific
stuff will not.

Yes.

Yes. Contact "popsales@cogs.susx.ac.uk"

Medium. If you took advantage of undocumented widgets you're in trouble
since many are no longer supported in OW3. Otherwise you shouldn't have
any real problems. Most of the differences are just bug-fixes. The
-XpolListItemPtr- structure changed slightly and the following
procedures became obsolete.

	LookupOlColors
	OlGetApplicationResources
	OlDetermineMouseAction
	OlReplayBtnEvent

Hope this helps.
