| FtpServer 0.89 (from Peter Moylan) |
| Sorry, everyone, but yesterday's release of FtpServer 0.88 had a bug that broke the "get recursive" operation supported by clients like NcFtp. I've now fixed this, and the new version is at ftp://eepjm.newcastle.edu.au/software/ftpser089.zip, or can be fetched via my web pages. The network around here has been slow lately, and I suspect that there is a nameserver or router problem somewhere in my local area. If you can't download reliably from my site, it might be necessary to try several times. Unfortunately, any problems between 25 December and 2 January probably won't be fixed, because this university closes down completely in that week. -> URL: http://eepjm.newcastle.edu.au/os2/ -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

| PmAs 1.12 (from Cornelis Bockemuehl) |
| It is now possible to generate and add a local horizon to star charts. Originally, this was only supposed to be kind of a "service release", but it turned out to be more work than foreseen: I hadn't thought about the fact that a horizon should remain horizontal even when rotating the viewing direction - as the name already suggests ;-) Until now the display was always automatically oriented so that the celestial north pole was "upwards"; now this can be set to be an arbitrary point, and for horizon displays this is set to be the zenith. On the homepage an example for this new function is shown. The rest of the examples is replaced by the ones shown at Warpstock Europe in Karlsruhe/Germany (13-15 Oct 2000). This also "blew up" the online docs a few 100kb: They too include now the same, illustrated examples. -> URL: http://home.datacomm.ch/cbockem -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

| Program Commander/2 Version 2.20 for OS/2 (from Roman Stangl) |
| I'm pleased to announce the public availability of PC/2 V2.20, the latest and greatest version of this utility that started development about 8 years ago! Primarily, you can get the complete package - including the complete source code - (and some other useful stuff) via my home page by following the PC/2 links.
PC/2 is a WPS enhancement or replacement, that features a program launcher, Virtual Desktops, Hotkey support, Sliding focus, Advanced Marking, Dynamic Menu Selection, Environment Spaces, WIN95 key support, QuickSwitch and SessionBar window, Hardware Panning support, TitleBar Smarticons, Lockup and Password protection support, Scheduler, WPS extraction and a Spooler Control Window (which enables spooling even when running PC/2 as a WPS replacement). Running PC/2 as the WPS replacement can save about 4 MB precious RAM, even on well equipped machines you can notice decreased swapper size and activity giving you a performance boost compared to running the WPS (due to the much smaller memory requirements compared with the WPS). For those of you who want to know the "tricks" used in PC/2, the full source (requires long filename support) is included, however it can be decrypted only on the 32-bit OS/2 platform to avoid using it on the Windows platforms. You are allowed to freely use, enhance or redistribute this package, if you don't strip anything, please see the online help for further details! -> URL: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Pines/7885/ -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |
