| Dialog Enhancer Beta (from Paul Smedley) |
| New beta builds of Dialog Enhancer for both Warp4/Aurora and eCS are now
available from the Dialog Enhancer website at http://www.dialogenhancer.com/beta_dl.html The following is from the DE website describing DE. It's almost too good to believe.... Dialog Enhancer '99 provides the answer to the problem of the inconsistent look of the dialogs on your OS/2 Warp, Aurora or eComStation system. The system is overhauled during a sophisticated graphical installation, and is active immediately after reboot. Your desktop finally will look complete, dialogs will no longer be a mismatch of different fonts, icons have been tweaked and much, much more. The system uses techniques used by no other enhancer utility to create the new look and feel. Unlike any other WPS enhancer available, there is no underlying application hogging CPU time, no slowing of your system due to a mass of registered replacement classes, no random system crashes due to dodgy system hooks, no wasted memory (Dialog Enhancer actually reduces the memory required by the operating system.), and no danger of system corruption due to an advanced installer/uninstaller application which makes many system checks before applying the changes to over 60 files. -> URL: http://www.dialogenhancer.com/beta_dl.html -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

The site states that the English version will be available around the end 2001.] -> URL: http://www.subsys.de -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

| Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes Unofficial Patch (from Martin Kiewitz) |
| Hi !
Another unofficial patch :) This time for Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes. I patched 2 bugs. First one is our beloved Soundblaster-bug, so SB-sound works now. The other one was a nasty bug, that crashed the VDM. It was the programmers fault. They had no idea of IRQ-processing handlers. Now the game is 100% playable under OS/2 Warp / eCS. Have fun. cu Kiewitz P.S.: Page updates to OS2world are currently not possible. http://www.os2world.com/games will be updated soon -> URL: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/holmesfix.zip -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

| RexxMail (Update) (from Marcus de Geus) |
| Build 20011026.160310 of RexxMail is now available. This build fixes a bug in the build I released yesterday (if the JunkMail* settings are missing from the configuraton file, 'register' commands will fail). If you have installed the previous build, please download the new build and upgrade RexxMail to remove the bug. My apologies for the inconvenience. The new build also adds an icon for the 'Help' program object, which I failed to include in the previous build. (BTW, if anyone feels inclined to give the RexxMail icons a -- much-needed -- facelift, please let me know. I would dearly love to be able to offer better-looking icons, but I simply haven't the time to rework them myself.)

| F 4.5h beta (from Christian Hennecke) |
| On September 29th, Duy Nguyen and Michel Normand have released version 4.5h beta of F, the Swiss army knive of file managers. F is a freeware text-mode multi-platform application. Supported operating systems are OS/2, AIX, BSD, Linux, and Win32. F is not only a very configurable file manager, but also offers an FTP/FXP client, an editor with syntax-highlighting, numerous tools for developers, simple e-mail and news clients, as well as small HTTP and FTP servers. F comes with its own FFP (F to F protocol) for file transfers and remote file execution, providing services for remote administration. Note that the interface is keyboard-only.
This is mainly a bugfix release. New features include virtual file system (VFS) support without the need for external helpers for disk images (DSK) and ISO CD images. Currently, you can't change the files, but files can be extracted and viewed using F's internal viewer. -> URL: http://filemanager.free.fr/beta/ -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |
