RSJ feature request
Hi!
This is part of a posting from a rsj newsgroup. A user was asking about
CDDB and MP3 support.
From: Markus Mueller support@rsj.de
>--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
Please send feature requests and the like to info@rsj.de or
survey@rsj.de - this way, there is a better chance that it reaches the
right people. If I pass it over, it's just another of my countless tries
to convince them of adding these features to the OS/2 version... :)
[...]
>--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think it would help, if all of us who want RSJ to become even better,
would mail their feature requests to info@rsj.de (they speak english,
too)

MyVoldep
New release of MyVolDep. Freeware.
MyVolDep is a VIO stock manager, but it's only available in german. Others
may use it, too, but currently I don't plan to translate it. Sorry.
Requires MySQL db-server and WGet ... see readmes for more details.
Check http://tam.belchenstuermer.de/ section 'Software' to download it.
DFSee version 4.01 released
For those of you that don't know DFSee yet, it is an FDISK,
display, analysis and recovery tool for disks and filesystems.
DFSee is a command-line and text-only utility (no GUI).
This allows usage from simple boot-diskettes for recovery.
The package includes an OS/2, Win-NT and DOS version.
DFSee can be downloaded from my web-site, but after evaluation,
and for all real use you are required to get a registration.
It can be purchased from the Mensys online shop for about US $17.
Details can be found at: http://www.fsys.demon.nl/dfsee.htm
Version 4.01 updates and fixes:
- Fixed trap on FAT32 partitions with a wrong system-type (like 06)
- Added QUERY items for disk-nr and partition-nr validation,
version and registration details. (usefull from scripts)
- Enhanced DFSUNFD script to allow an all-sector scan and use of
a specified custom geometry when BIOS defaults are incorrect.
Registering DFSee will give you the right to use all 4.xx versions
and get support plus a reasonable amount of assistance by email.
But even more important, it enables further development of DFSee!
I would very much like to hear about experiences you have with
DFSee, either positive or negative. Contact: dfsee@fsys.demon.nl
New payment method available for Warpstock 2001
Have you tried to register for Warpstock 2001 or purchase some
merchandise, but had problems with the PayPal system? Perhaps you live
outside the U.S. and were deterred by the 30-day verification delay? If
so, then there is a solution. Registering for Warpstock 2001 and buying
Warpstock merchandise can be now be done through our eBay store! The
URL is http://www.ebaystores.com/warpstock2001
The Warpstock 2001 eBay store lets you purchase the same items at the
same price as with PayPal. It's just another method for OS/2
users to buy Warpstock tickets and merchandise. Some people prefer
PayPal, others will prefer the eBay store. The choice is yours, and
after all, isn't that what OS/2 is all about?
The key difference between the PayPal system and the eBay store is that
the eBay store does not require you to verify your account with your
bank or credit - a process which can take a month with Paypal for people
outside the U.S. With the eBay store, payments can be made immediately,
via MasterCard, Visa, Discover, or electronic checks drawn directly from
a U.S.-based bank account.
Until September 1, the registration price for Warpstock 2001 is $90 per
person for the entire weekend. The exhibitor registration fee is $500.
The Saturday night social event is $50. You can also pre-purchase
Warpstock shirts and coffee mugs, which can be either picked up at
Warpstock 2001 or delivered to you.
The Warpstock Board of Directors and the Warpstock 2001 Event Team look
forward to welcoming the OS/2 community to Toronto for the greatest
Warpstock experience ever.
The 5th annual Warpstock conference will be held October 6-8, 2001, in
Toronto, Ontario, Canada and is produced by Warpstock, Inc., a North
Carolina non-profit corporation. The Warpstock annual conference is a
gathering of OS/2 users, developers, and vendors from around the world
for the purpose of education and advocacy. More information is available

Randomizer 4.0 Released
After exactly one year in stasis, Don Eitner has released Randomizer 4.0.
Randomizer is a lightweight database built with the specific intention
of selecting random items from lists (fields, arrays, etc). The
Randomizer.cmd script is accompanied by DataInput.cmd which acts
as the database creation and editing tool. Other front-ends could be
easily coupled with DataInput.cmd but thus far no others are known to
exist.
This could be useful for many things such as developing quick characters
for a story or role playing game, the basis of a lottery number picker, or
theoretically scientific work involving random data.
Primary download location: http://freiheit.syntheticdimension.net/os2-myapps.shtml
Randomizer 4.0 is powered by Pun Technology. "Pun is a play on words()."
To make a long story short, Pun Technology is a replacement for OS/2's
Rexx words(), word(), and delword() functions which allows Randomizer 4.0
to use non-space characters as field delimiters in the data file. This allows
more effective handling of fields which contain spaces without the need for
special place holder characters as in previous versions of Randomizer.
Randomizer 4.0 is donation-ware. If you like it you are asked to send $5 to
encourage further development. If you don't like it, let me know what you
don't like about it and maybe I can make it better.
