- Smart Windows patch #6.5
- Module replacer V. 0,1
- Swap Monitor V. 0.35

--------------------------------------------------------------
Smart Windows is an OS/2 user interface enhancer with both
aesthetical and functional features.

Here you can find a new patch (42 KB):

ftp://ftp.ghostbbs.ml.org/pub/os2/os2team/alcant/smwp0065.zip

Note:
If you already installed patch #6.4 and are not running an 
unattended machine with REIPL=ON in your CONFIG.SYS file, 
you can avoid to install this patch and wait for the next 
one.

This is only SMARTWIN.DLL and corrects:

- Message boxes reporting error messages, appearing during 
system boot, have been removed. If an error prevents 
SMARTWIN.DLL from beeing loaded, a short series of beeps 
will warn the user and a message will be written to the 
file SMARTWIN.LOG in the root directory of the boot drive.
If you want to test it put your computer clock back one day 
and then reboot. On system boot you'll hear some sounds 
from the PC loudspeaker  and shall be able to read the 
error message from the LOG file. To re-enable Smart Windows, after the test, reset the machine clock to the correct date and reboot.

- This doesn't extend the trial time.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Module Replacer V. 0.1 is an OS/2 text mode executable 
which unlocks running DLL and EXE files optionally 
replacing them with a new file and saving a backup copy of 
the old file.

It is currently available in the incoming directory of 
hobbes (16 KB):

or

---------------------------------------------------------
Swap Monitor is a small REXX application which allows to 
control the swap file size at a settable interval, keeping 
track of the current and the maximum size. It can record 
the data in a log file in various mode while displaying 
them in a nice looking and colorful OS/2 text mode window.

It is currently available in the incoming directory of 
hobbes (10 KB):
