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): ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/repmod01.zip or ftp://ftp.ghostbbs.ml.org/pub/os2/os2team/alcant/repmod01.zip --------------------------------------------------------- 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): ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/swpm035.zip or ftp://ftp.ghostbbs.ml.org/pub/os2/os2team/alcant/swpm035.zip ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
