After exactly one year in stasis, Don Eitner has released Randomizer 4.0.
Randomizer is a lightweight database built with the specific intention of selecting random items from lists (fields, arrays, etc). The Randomizer.cmd script is accompanied by DataInput.cmd which acts as the database creation and editing tool. Other front-ends could be easily coupled with DataInput.cmd but thus far no others are known to exist.
This could be useful for many things such as developing quick characters for a story or role playing game, the basis of a lottery number picker, or theoretically scientific work involving random data.

Randomizer 4.0 is powered by Pun Technology. "Pun is a play on words()." To make a long story short, Pun Technology is a replacement for OS/2's Rexx words(), word(), and delword() functions which allows Randomizer 4.0 to use non-space characters as field delimiters in the data file. This allows more effective handling of fields which contain spaces without the need for special place holder characters as in previous versions of Randomizer.
Randomizer 4.0 is donation-ware. If you like it you are asked to send $5 to encourage further development. If you don't like it, let me know what you don't like about it and maybe I can make it better.

Hethmon Brothers has released an updated version of smtpd.exe for use with Inet.Mail 1.3 and Inet.Mail Pro 1.5. This minor update corrects a problem with an extra space in the EHLO response Inet.Mail uses.
It is not a required update, but recommended to stay current.
The update files are: Download smtpd-1.5.33.pro.zip and Download smtpd-1.3.19.zip
Versions for both the 16 bit and 32 bit tcp/ip stack are included in each zip.
Any questions should be directed to the Hethmon Brothers support address at support@hethmon.com.

thanks,

The minimum requirements have been modified. previously the 32bit stack was required. changed this for v4.02y of the stack (as reported by inetver) it may be possible to run with a lower version of the stack, but v4,02y is the minimum level known to work. basically if you have the file so32dll.dll in the mptn\dll dir then ZxMail should work.

Finally, Alessandro Cantatore has released an updated version of his incredible WPS enhancer, Styler/2, aka SmartWindows. A special edition of Styler/2 with minor features is a major part of the coming eCS' new look and feel, so if you want some eye candy plus tons of functional enhancements right now, you should take a look at this. Moreover, with this version Alessandro has put several language specific versions on Hobbes, which cover English, Italian, Russian, and German. Besides this, the enhancements over the prior version are as follows:

• Various minor bug fixes, performance improvements and updates. Hopefully some previously misbehaving applications now should work correctly.
• New titlebar bitmaps
• A new titlebar button theme by Don Eitner
• A new close titlebar button by Marco Cassili

Alessandro is currently still working at Styler/2 version 2. He's completely re-writing it, and a first alpha version of Styler/2 v.2 should be available in few days. I am running Styler/2 for about two years now and I surely never want have to miss it again! Please note that Styler/2 is Shareware and will disable itself after the trial period has exceeded. Please consider supporting the Styler/2 development if you like this product!

I'm happy to announce, a new moduleplayer called Inquisition Sound Server written by me, supports OS/2 from version 0.2.1. It supports DART and GUS wavetable using the Manley-drivers API. The player is still in early stage, only supports XM (Fasttracker 2) modules and it has a VIO version only, which is pretty slow (a fast&dirty port of the DOS version) but progressing well. I hope you'll like it. It was written in Free Pascal. Requires latest EMX and installed MMOS/2 with DART. All sources included. It's mailware in case of non-commercial usage.
