Latches Lane, Merion, PA *** NOVEMBER FEATURE PRESENTATION *** -- ProNews/2 News Reader -- The main feature planned for the November meeting will be a presentation & demonstration of the full-featured ProNews/2 OS/2 news reader program by SIG member Jim Nuytens. Pronews/2 is a top rated OS/2 News client with many features that are lacking in other OS/2 news readers. Many users regard this unique newsreader as the best available, bar none. Key features include a process manager that gives the user complete control over queued tasks (such as downloading articles), true message threading and fully customizable toolbars. It also includes an advanced filtering and thread-watching mechanism that can work on a group-by-group or global basis. The user interface is based on the familiar and intuitive notebook format, with tabs for quickly accessing subscribed groups, new groups, all groups, queued processes and connections. The most recent version, PN2_15B1.ZIP, can be downloaded from hobbes, OS/2 Supersite, BMT Micro and other OS/2 websites. OS/2 e-Zine! published a very favorable review of ProNews/2 last year. Read it at http://www.os2ezine.com/v3n01/pn2.htm Other agenda items include SIG business matters, OS/2 news, new software releases, Q&A session, software raffle, etc. An OS/2 system will be on hand for demos of OS/2, Java, Internet, etc., as time permits. Free light refreshments will also be available. Mark the date and time: Wednesday, November 17th, at 7:00pm, to hear about all the new and exciting developments, or if you have questions about OS/2 Warp and Java. OS/2 SIG meetings are open and free for OS/2 users, their guests and all others interested in learning about OS/2 and associated Java technology.
