WarpZip Lite update
I've updated the look and feel of WarpZip Lite and haven't had time to
let you all know that I uploaded it a couple of days ago.
For the new look, see: http://www.pillarsoft.net/wzlite.html
If you own WarpZip or the PillarSoft Suite, stop by and pick up the new
version. It is contained in the WarpZip or PillarSoft Suite downloadable
archive.
Regards,

Maintainer/Developer Wanted - Frobozz Investor
________________________
To OS/2 & eCS Programmers,
Recently, it came to my attention that the author of Frobozz Investor
had ceased development of this program in 1997-8. In subsequent
correspondence with the author, it was felt that the loss of this fine
program to the OS/2 community was regrettable. In order to revive it, the
author offered to donate the source code to any programmer or team of
programmers under the standard GNU GPL licensing agreement(s), who would
agree to update this program for OS/2 Warp and eComStation using a new
name as well as maintain support and would apply said licensing
agreement(s) to any port of said program to any operating system. To
assist such a project, Adrian Gschwend of netlabs.org has offered the use
of a website and CVS for the source code.
The author's description of the program in 1997 is as follows: "Frobozz
Investor is the complete investment package for the active OS/2 investor.
The application contains modules for fund tracking, portfolio management
and technical analysis. Investor also provides an extensive Rexx interface
and download capabilities through CompuServe."
This program was written in C, built using Gpf and contains both DDE and
REXX interfacing, as noted. A copy of version 1.50 is available on Hobbes
at http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/apps/money/invest.zip.
If you are willing to meet the above criteria, please contact me before
March 24, 2003 with a brief summary of your interest, background and plans
for this program, using the address and subject below. Submissions will
be sent to the author for his perusal, kept strictly confidential and
answered by me within 1-2 week(s) of the above closing date.
Address: "Kenn Yuill" kenn.yuill@sympatico.ca
Subject: Frobozz Investor - Development
