Y2000 Pro : The solution for the Year 2000 problem in PC BIOSes. Works with OS/2, Linux and other 32-bit Operating Systems. http://www.blueskyinnovations.com/y2k.html ****************************** WarpCast ****************************** Source: Hinnerk Becker (hbecker@bigfoot.com) Moderator: Dirk Terrell (admin@os2ss.com) ********************************************************************** Assistant/2 (the successor of Extended Clipboard/2) is a WPS extension which is designed to make work with OS/2 more comfortable in various ways.It can now be downloaded from ftp.bmtmicro.com/bmtmicro/assist10.zip . Extended Clipboard EClip offers new and improved functions to use the clipboard more efficiently. Because extensive changing between source and destination is no longer required, the clipboard becomes an even more universal aid. With EClip it is possible to copy all needed clips into the clipboard first and paste them into the destination application later. Drag&Drop With Assistant/2 you can Drag&Drop pieces of text from one application to another. This works with almost every PM-application which supports the clipboard as well as with windowed VIOs. If you drop a piece of text on the desktop, Assistant/2 will create a clip object that is compatible with Extended Clipboard. If the dragged text is an URL it can create a URL object. Macros Keyboard and mouse events can be recorded with the integrated macro recorder. It is also possible to write a macro with any text editor or to edit an already recorded macro. Since macros are special text clips, everything that you can do with text clips is applicable to macros as well. Especially the hotkeys make macros a very powerful feature. Dynamic macros can be used to generate macros on runtime. So it is possible to insert the current date into your application or to change the case of selected letters! Other macros included: Open text as URL, add text to file. Hotkeys and Hottext You can assign a hotkey or a sequence of keys (hottext) to clips and macros. If you need a certain clip frequently, assign a hotkey (hottext) to it. The clip will be pasted and macros will be played everytime you press the hotkey in a PM application. The mousebuttons and Win keys can be used as hotkeys, too. Popup Menus Create flexibly configurable popup menus which are accessable from almost every PM application by hotkey (mouse button). The structure of the menu is read from the folder you have chosen. English and German versions are included and registrations for Extended Clipboard/2 are valid for Assistant/2 as well! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
