Weasel 1.4 (from Peter Moylan)
At long last I'm releasing a new non-beta copy of the Weasel mail server. The most significant new feature is that it should now work on Warp 3 or better, i.e. it solves the problem created by a new feature in version 1.3. If you're still stuck back on 1.2, you'll find this one much faster for outgoing mail. There's a more detailed list of changes in the zip file.

PMView 2.32 (UPDATE) (from Henk Pol)
PMView v2.32 is now available. It's already available at BMT Micro. Within 24 hours it should also be available at www.pmview.com.
The following bugs and problems are fixed in PMView 2000 v2.32:
  1. Loading, BMP: Black&White 1-bit BMP files without color map load as completely black in PMView.
  2. Loading, TIFF: TIFF-in-JPEG files having YCbCr photometric with only one sample per pixel cannot be loaded.
  3. Edit/Paste: Pasting a color mapped selection into a color mapped image causes incorrect information on the status bar showing that the image has zero (0) color indexes.
  4. Saving: Saving a file that is read-only locks up PMView.
  5. File Open/Save dialogs: File names with multiple consequtive dots (e.g. "test..jpg") are not included in the file list when using "*.jpg" as file mask.
  6. File Open/Save dialogs: Using multiple asterisks (e.g. "*.*.*") in a file mask does not work correctly.
  7. Color conversion dialog: Typing in a larger value than 256 in the "Convert to Indexed 256-color" dialog causes PMView to crash.
  8. Printing: When changing the value of the number of copies, the new setting is not effective until the print dialog is closed and reopened.

Important Update from Peter Nielsen:
The updated OS/2 version is now available at www.pmview.com.
FWIW, to distinguish the new v2.32 from the old one, look in the "Help->System Info..." dialog. The up-to-date OS/2 build is 17833 (the one that has the broken save was 17832).

WarpIN and XWorkplace 0.9.18 (from Ulrich Moeller)
WarpIN and XWorkplace have both been updated to V0.9.18.
  1. WarpIN V0.9.18 has been released.
    WarpIN is intended to become the new universal OS/2 installer. It is becoming more and more popular among OS/2 developers because of its flexibility and ease of use. It has full system configuration (CONFIG.SYS, WPS classes, WPS objects) and can fully undo all the changes to your system again.
    V0.9.18 has quite some internal rework, such as Unicode support, and a nicer GUI finally.
  2. XWorkplace V0.9.18 is out also.
    XWorkplace is the most feature-rich freeware Workplace
    Shell enhancer on the planet, and even better, it is OpenSource. XWorkplace is the successor to my popular XFolder utility and has become a Netlabs project.
For details, please refer to the download address below.
V0.9.18 is mainly another bugfix release to the problematic V0.9.16 and 17 version. Before I get yelled at again for releasing buggy software, be reminded that this is not guaranteed to be stable (as the version number indicates anyway).
Note: To install XWorkplace, you also need WarpIN V0.9.14 or higher, since XWorkplace not comes as a self-installing executable. I recommend
using at least WarpIN V0.9.16 to avoid the problem with your existing XCenter disappearing on install.
WarpIN and XWorkplace are Netlabs projects, released under the GNU General Public Licence. The source code is available on the Netlabs CVS server. See www.netlabs.org/nosa and the above address for details. We have created four mailing lists at groups.yahoo.com:
  • warpin-user
  • warpin-dev
  • xworkplace-user
  • xworkplace-dev
for WarpIn and XWorkplace users and developers, respectively. HOWEVER, please note that I am currently not able to answer a hundred messages per day. If you want to report a bug, this is appreciated, but do not be disappointed if you do not get an answer. And please do not try either to mail me privately instead, that won't change things either. Thanks for your patience.

Bugs fixed:
  • On systems with big fonts the dialog was not correctly displayed

version 3.3.1.Nethack: From the land before 3DFX, before VGA graphics and DOOM, before the IBM PC, way back in the dark ages of Unixland, there was a game. They called it Rogue. People played it, and found it good. From this basis, Hack was born. Soon Hack became Nethack, because it was developed by many people (and has nothing to do with hacking the internet). And people played this on many machines, from Unices to Macs to PCs, due to the amazing power of Open Source Code.

Gnuplot 3.8i (from Klaus Staedtler)
Petr Mikulik has released Gnuplot 3.8i
Gnuplot is a command-line driven interactive function plotting utility. The software is copyrighted but freely distributed (i.e., you don't have to pay for it). It was originally intended as graphical program which would allow scientists and students to visualize mathematical functions and data. Gnuplot supports many different types of terminals, plotters, and printers (including many color devices, and pseudo-devices like LaTeX) and is easily extensible to include new devices. [ The "GNU" in gnuplot is NOT related to the Free Software Foundation, the naming is just a coincidence (and a long story; see the gnuplot FAQ for details). Thus gnuplot is not covered by the Gnu copyleft, but rather by its own copyright statement, included in all source code files.]
Gnuplot handles both curves (2 dimensions) and surfaces (3 dimensions). Surfaces can be plotted as a mesh fitting the specified function, floating in the 3-d coordinate space, or as a contour plot on the x-y plane. For 2-d plots, there are also many plot styles, including lines, points, lines with points, error bars, and impulses (crude bar graphs). Graphs may be labeled with arbitrary labels and arrows, axes labels, a title, date and time, and a key. The interface includes command-line editing and history on most platforms.
