SCOUG meeting Feb. 16: Guiffy
Contact: Tony Butka tony@scoug.com
The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) will
be this Saturday, February 16, 2002 at 9:15 AM PST, at Regal Lanes in
Orange, 1485 N. Tustin Ave.
Guiffy
What's in a name (pronounced Goofy)? In this case, a lot! Guiffy stands
for GUI diFF & suremerge 2-or-3-waY tool, and this month, the tool's
author, Bill Ritcher, will be on hand to show us all that it can do. In
simple terms, Guiffy is a compare and merge utility for source files,
folders, and file trees. It's Java based, which handily makes it cross-
platform. It's fast, too.
Not a programmer? Think you don't need it? Come take a look anyway. Ever
wonder what you changed in CONFIG.SYS? Guiffy can find the differences
and display them, even for those really long PATH/DPATH/ LIBPATH lines.
Better yet, it can help you remove some of the differences while keeping
the rest. To make this even better, Bill will be offering a club discount
for copies purchased at the meeting. Still not sure? Well, members might
even win a copy at the award- winning SCOUG raffle.
We begin at 9:15 AM after some socializing with announcements, the
presentation, and then a break for more socializing. Follow that with a
SIG presentation or two and we're done around 12:30 PM. Don't forget that
we'll also have Q&A when folks share their tribulations and solutions, and
the aforementioned raffle. The donuts and coffee are free.
OS/2 Help Desk and Networking SIG, March 3rd, 2002, 2 PM PST, Chapman
University in Orange:
Should you be in need of technical assistance, take your problem - and
your system - to the in-person OS/2 Help Desk that's held once a month at
Chapman University. SCOUG volunteers will help you work it all out.
While you're at the in-person Help Desk, find out what the Networking SIG
is doing. If networking isn't part of your current strategy, it will be
eventually. The SIG meets at the same time and place, and pursues issues
related to network configurations and problem solutions.
How to get to Regal Lanes:
From the 55 freeway, exit Katella Ave. heading west. Turn right (north)
at the first major intersection onto Tustin Ave. At the next signal
you'll find Regal Lanes on your right. It's across from the Toyota of
Orange dealership.
There's lots of parking on the south side of the building. Enter from the
east entrance of the building (farthest from Tustin Ave.), not the main
(front) entrance to the facility. Take the stairs to the 2nd floor;
meeting rooms (and restrooms) will be on your left.
Handicapped access is via an elevator by the front door.
OR: Go to http://www.scoug.com/directions.html; there is a map to Regal
Lanes, plus a more detailed map & driving directions from Yahoo!
How to get to Chapman University: Come to Hashinger Hall Science Building, room 203. It's on the second
floor and there's an elevator for you to bring up your equipment. Come and join us! POSSI Meeting Feb 12 !!!! ANNOUNCEMENT: POSSI MEETING FEBRUARY 12. At the February meeting of the Phoenix OS/2 Society, we'll celebrate OS/2
and demonstrate how the operating system is successfully running a small
business. LUMATURE, in Scottsdale, will open its doors -- including the
door to the computer room! See firsthand every aspect of this business
runs on networked computers using OS/2. Lumature, a lighting and furniture store, has been using OS/2 as its only
operating system since 1994. Every business function is performed by OS/2
Warp 4 workstations on a network powered by WSeB servers. When and where: The store is located at 15620 North Scottsdale Rd, north
of Greenway, on the west side of the street. Although the LUMATURE
showroom closes to the public at 6:00pm, the doors will be open to members
of the user group (and operating-system curious visitors!); staff will
demonstrate and answer questions. Want more detail? Hardware and OS/2 software used by Lumature include: Experience how every light fixture, table lamp, and wall light in the
showroom is controlled from 'virtual' switches created on showroom
workstation screens. Using the HOUSE/2, every display fixture can be
turned ON, OFF, or DIMMED from the showroom computers. Every light can be
addressed individually or as a member of a group. Using an ELO-TOUCH
touchscreen monitor in the showroom (with OS/2 drivers) it is very easy to
control the hundreds of light fixtures in the store. Meeting Sunday February 10 at 4:00pm ET (21:00 GMT) As a reminder the WarpDoctor group meets
