What good is an OS without application support?

Well, UnixWare 2 of course supports all UnixWare applications (Novell keep track of these and are published every so often).

However, UnixWare 2 can run SCO binaries, DOS binaries, MS Windows binaries (currently only in standard mode), generic UNIX System V (386) binaries (such as Interactive, or now Solaris on Intel).

UnixWare 2 is also source code compatible with virtually all other UNIX based machines - and as Novell is very keen on adhering to the standards, is source code combatible with a large range of non-UNIX based machines. In particular, the SDK includes as special compiler for BSD based programs).
