Philadelphia OS/2 UG Mtg: Wed, Jun 26
The Philadelphia OS/2 User Group invites all interested computer users to
attend the June monthly meeting:
. *** JUNE 26th MEETING AGENDA ***
. -- WEBSITE CREATION & MAINTENANCE: PART 2 --
This month, Barry Mann and John Davey will continue with Part 2 of the
website maintenance presentation they began in April.
As the phillyos2 website's new webmaster, Barry has rearranged everything
under the hood, while keeping the site's familiar look and feel. During
the presentation, Barry and original webmaster, John, will compare their
differing styles of web authoring. John will show how he used a GUI tool,
Home Page Publisher, to maintain previous versions of the site, and Barry
will show how he migrated the site to PPWizard, a text based tool. Both
styles have advantages and disadvantages.
During the presentation, we'll be covering cross platform browser issues.
Attendees are encouraged to bring laptops (you'll need a CDRW reader). All
platforms welcome. We want as much diversity as possible.
Using the phillyos2 site as a sample, we'll test Barry's success at
creating a browser agnostic site. So far, it's been tested on Netscape
4.61, Mozilla 1.0, Opera 5.1 B2 and WebEx. There are a few surprises, but
the site is readable on all above browsers. Please try this site on any
browsers you have. If any quirks are found, make a detailed record of the
circumstances. We'll try to replicate them at the meeting.
Other agenda items include U/G business items, OS/2 news, new releases,
Q&A session and raffles. The usual free refreshments will also be
available.
Mark the date and time: Wednesday, May 22nd at 7:00pm.
OS/2 meetings are open and free for OS/2 users, their guests
and others interested in learning about OS/2 and associated
technologies. We have a very full agenda, so also please try
to be on time promptly by 7:00pm.
WE SUPPORT THE JAVA LOBBY: http://www.javalobby.org
Further information, directions to Episcopal Academy, and other useful
information about the OS/2 U/G activities may be found on our web site at http://www.phillyos2.org, or contact U/G Leader Larry Lavins: llavins@worldnet.att.net, or phone (215) 878-9609. - -

____________________________________________________________
SCOUG Presents: Open Watcom To Accelerate OS/2 Development
The Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) proudly presents one of
the Open Watcom team members at its Saturday June 15 meeting.
"We are thrilled, absolutely thrilled to have an Open Watcom core
developer and team partner come and speak to us" says Steven Levine, SCOUG

best tool available for creating robust future-generation OS/2 software.
It's free and it's open source. Open Watcom breathes new life into OS/2
development."
The Open Watcom representative will cover OS/2 development, porting
software from other platforms including from Windows and Linux, developing
custom DLLs, available libraries of existing functions and subroutines,
templates, linking modules together, the various files that programmers
must create when developing large projects, writing "make" files and how
to convert them from other systems, available GUI and graphics routines,
writing cross-platform code, the development environment, and where to get
manuals, source code and online help.
"Open Watcom is an outstanding way to write OS/2 programs" says SCOUG
member Harry Chris Motin, author of
Open Watcom - Getting Started http://www.scoug.com/os24u/2002/scoug204.watcom.html
"I've already written several programs with it. It's fast, it's accurate
and it shows off the power that we all expect from OS/2. I look forward
to meeting one of the developers from Open Watcom!
A free CD containing Open Watcom will be distributed to all attendees.

June 2002 Meeting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DATE: Tuesday, June 11, 2002

LOCATION: Room DC1316, Davis Centre, University of Waterloo

Genealogy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[This presentation postponed from last month.]
A comparison "Ftree", written for OS/2 with "PAF" written for DOS.
Comparison will show the value of these programs in storing data and their
ease of use.
There is no such thing as a perfect database for genealogy. All programs
are written by people who have individual needs in recording their
research and each of has a different idea of what is important and what is
not. The difference is in the genealogist's desire for accuracy and proof.
Some "genealogists" insist on level one proof for each bit of data, others
take a more cavalier approach and enter data without proof, only
conjecture.
Database Tutorial 3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We will look at the process of setting up of a simple datebase using
dbExpert. This is a continuation of the previous tutorial.
OS/2 User Forum
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Sharing OS/2 Ideas)(Bring Your Questions)
