| ShowImage and SlideShow Module for Doodles Screen Saver (from http://www.os2news.com) |
| The ShowImage module for Doodles Screen Saver was updated to version 1.7. It no longer uses MMPM/2 for loading images but it uses the GBM library. This library is available on all eComStation system. If you do not have the library installed, see the "Welcome" page of the installer where to get it.
The SlideShow module for Doodles Screen Saver is now publicly available. As the name implies, this module uses all images of a directory to for a slide show. Both modules are packaged as a self installing WarpIN archives and require the GBM library. URL: ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/dssaver/Modules Enjoy!

| PSPM/2 V1.18 released (from http://www.os2news.com) |
| The Program Status PM/2 of Christian Langanke is now available in V1.18, which introduces Swedish National Language Support.
This program displays a graphical view on the OS/2 or eComStation process tree and allows to display details as well as killing processes and process trees. This is much more comprehensive than a simple list of processes, like displayed by the process list of eComStation or WatchCat. A stripped textmode version (display only) is available as well. PSPM/2 is a bug-free reimplementation of an already existing PSPM/2 utility of Seth Eilbott, once included in the OS/2 Developers connection program package (DevCon).

| Generic MAC Wrapper (Genmac) 2.00 & XWLAN 3.0 released! (from http://www.os2news.com) |
| ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++
From: Adrian Gschwend < ktkDESPAM@DESPAMnetlabs.org > The famous Generic MAC Wrapper Driver (GenMac) of Willibald Meyer is now available in Version 2.00. Due to the support of many more network interface cards, the new version has grown too big to remain packed into one archive file. Instead it has been split into a package for the main GenMac driver, and additional, vendor specific driver packages. See the online help in the main package for the revision history, installation instructions, more information about which network interface cards are support, and detailed information on how to submit bug reports including debug data. Thanks a lot to Willibald Meyer for his work! Genmac Wrapper Homepage: http://genmac.netlabs.org/ -> URL: http://www.os2voice.org -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

The original to source of the IDE are subject the GPL (general Public License) and are down loadable by Hobbes. The original source of RTL, SPCC etc. was made available by SpeedSoft already some years ago on their homepage. Since the company Speedsoft nolonger exists, I have to compile begun this source and it developed after longer time into "WDSibyl". With this product also come some innovations (e.g. USB -, ODBC - are, Joystick support, storing the position and colors of the component, some classes of other persons etc..) and a quantity of corrections. My changes and/or extension of the source are subject also to GPL. I do not take responsibility for direct or indirect damage by the use of the product. But if someone has an error or a problem with WDSibyl, I am pleased about feedback by E-Mail. Since I cannot program and/or write everything, I could use assistance to develop this product further.
