Maul Publisher V2.23 for OS/2
This version of Maul Publisher fixes a lot of the bugs that have crept
into previous versions.

New rectangle fill mode. Twain support (untested, I don't have an OS/2
scanner...;-)
A request
========
It seems people have been trained by Linux projects to never ask for
support or help. You know the sort of thing:- "Don't hassle us unless you
have read the _entire_ faq, visited all the user groups, read our fine
10,000 page manual (in greek), and have the very latest system build...".
This means that people have simply not reported bugs at all. Yet it's the
only way to know if the app works on all systems. Maul support maul@manglais.com is there to answer questions, to receive suggestions
as to how to improve the product, and to report bugs. You will usually
receive a response within 48 hours.
If you want good quality OS/2 software:- Please report bugs!
Yours
Peter.
Last Call for scanner support in Tame 0.96
As there had been very,very little response from US/EN (other countries
gave much more feedback) I ask a last time for scanner settings.
If you have a scanner working with Sane (Scanner access now easy), please
send me the output of 'scanimage -d device -h >device.txt' (device has to
be replaced by the used sane backend e.g. epson) I need additionally the
exact scanner model and the used sane version. Please send your data to
staedtler-przyborski@web.de not this list.
With this informations I can add your scanner to the Tame database, so
every user of the same scanner profits from your informations.

With this informations I can add your scanner to the Tame database, so
every user of the same scanner profits from your informations.
Tame 0.96 is a PM-Frontend for Sane. It is integrated into MMOS/2 (uses
mmiocodecs, Lighttable), has preview and many other possibilities. Apple
would call it due to it's look iScan (it is skinnable, so you can change
it to your preferred style if you don't like the default theme).
Tame 0.96 will be a _complete_ scanning package (yes it will contain sane
1.0.10 so installation should be quite easy), and as soon the remaining
bugs in the Sane USB version have been ironed out there will be a TameUSB
version containing a Sane USB version too.
Tame is free, a previous version (0.94, very outdated don't send
bug-reports anymore) can be found here (when it comes back to live): http://www.os2world.com/goran/
Some responses from Tame 0.96 beta testers (unfortunately I can't post a
very, very impressive screenshot showing Tame 0.96beta using a
USB-scanner with a scanned image in the preview window) [moderator note: I
have seen it and it is cool to see TAME/2 with scan output from what I'm
told was an Epson USB scanner.]:
> Overall I am quite impressed so far.
> I appreciate Tame/2 application.
> First of all: I'm very impressed

news.consultron.ca news server update
Hi folks!
I'm adding some new newsgroups to the consultron.ca news server. They are
very high traffic, so the server is going to be offline for a while...
which is to say, that posts made to it will be stored, but not posted
immediately.
Here is a list of the groups in question:
comp.lang.apl:
comp.lang.c:
comp.lang.c++:
comp.lang.cobol:
comp.lang.fortran:
comp.lang.java.3d:
comp.lang.java.advocacy:
comp.lang.java.announce:
comp.lang.java.beans:
comp.lang.java.corba:
comp.lang.java.databases:
comp.lang.java.gui:
comp.lang.java.help:
comp.lang.java.machine:
comp.lang.java.programmer:
comp.lang.java.security:
comp.lang.java.softwaretools:
comp.lang.javascript:
comp.lang.postscript:
comp.lang.php:
After these ones come in, I'll be adding some more language newsgroups to
the server sometime in the future... but these will do to start:)
I'll post another message when the feed has finished coming in. This is
going to take some hours, and perhaps even all the way into tomorrow to
finish, as these newsgroups are going to make my newsbase eight times
larger than it is currently.
Sorry for any inconvenience, and I hope people find the new newsgroups
useful!
Regards,
Jack Troughton

Warpstock 2003 bids update
Since a couple people have asked me about the status of Warpstock 2003 I
thought I'd post a brief update.
We have received two notices of intent to submit a bid for Warpstock 2003.
One on the West coast and one in Canada. So far neither has actually
submitted a bid, but the deadline for that is February 28th. Hopefully we
will have good news in 2-3 weeks. I will report more after that date.

FtpServer version 1.15 released
FtpServer, the FTP daemon for OS/2 and eCS that has virtual
directories, has just been updated to version 1.15. You can get it at http://eepjm.newcastle.
edu.au/os2/ftpserver.html or at ftp://eepjm.newcastle.edu.au/software/ftpser115.zip
LIST OF CHANGES
Version 1.15
Added separate speed limit for uploads.
Fixed bug: IP filter incorrect in Setup.exe (mask problem)
Fixed minor bug in LogAnalysis: failure to recognise that
'/' and '\' are equivalent in file names.
Added a NIL check to TaskControl.SuspendMe.
Extended anti-tagger criteria.
Added Migrate.cmd to the tools directory.
Extended watchdog task to handle sockets that refuse to
be killed.
Note that Migrate.cmd is a new tool that allows you to migrate the user
database (managed by the tcp/ip configuration notebook) from IBM's FTPD.
Unfortunately you will still need to enter the passwords manually, because
passwords are encrypted, and the two servers use different encryption
methods.
Free Utilities from Pillarsoft
We have a few command line utilities knocking around here that could be
useful and we have decided to document and release them. No legal
mumbo-jumbo and no registration required.
Most are quite simple but I use them often for various reasons. We have
other items that we may add in the future. The utilities packaged at this
time are:
CRLF - Convert LF to CRLF or vice versa on any selected file.
DC - Directory Change changes directories at the command line (like cd)
using aliases. This utility creates a data file and alias/directory pairs
may be added directly from any target directory.
FF - Find Files by name (or wildcard) on any drive, tree or individual
directory.
RT - Replace Text replaces any string with a new string in selected
file(s). May use wildcards for file lists and do complex search and
replace operations. (Including multiple line search and replace)
SLP - Search LibPath searches the LIBPATH for DLL files. Handy for dll
loading order inquiries as well as finding duplicates.
SP - Search Path searches the SET PATH statement for file(s) as opposed
to searching drives or directories. Handy for finding duplicates.
They can be found on the PillarSoft website under "Products" http://www.pillarsoft.net

Wayne Swanson
