[WarpCast] Tyra/2 1.70 is here! - 11/23/99 |
PMView: The ultimate in image viewing Major update coming soon! Watch http://www.pmview.com/ for details ********************************************************************* Source: Oliver Poggensee (op@opweb.de) Moderator: Trevor Smith (trevor@haligonian.com) ------------------------------------------------------- Tyra/2 the Config.sys analyzer and editor is now available in version 1.70. New in this version: Added support for timezone settings. More than 300 countries and locations around the world are availbe with their settings for the tz variable. Added a Fastsave option. Fastsave saves the config.sys file only, without showing the new config.sys file and all the dialogs. Added some functions to determine that the config.sys file is bootable and compatible with the OS/2 install und update programs. These functions are called at every save. The limitations in OS/2 are as follows: Config.sys should not be greater than 64000 Bytes, Config.sys should not have more than 600 lines and a single line should hot have more than 1024 characters right from the equal sign. The Change History function has been redesigned to avoid problems with the 600 lines limitation. The Change History will now be written to an externally file and not inside the config.sys file. Tyra/2 is year 2000 tested and profed. Added some entries to the Config.sys Descriptions. On my website is a small utility available that can speed up the start time of Tyra/2 and any other VXREXX written software. This is done by preloding the Vrobj.dll file and holding it in the memory. Tyra/2 is availbe in English and in German. Bug corrections: Fixed a problem with the Check Paths function. The function reported that you can delete the bootdrive entry (i.e. C:\) from the the SET Path variable. It is only needed by the Setup.cmd from any GRADD based graphiccard driver. Without it the setup.cmd will fail with an error message "Can't find BOOTOS2", you have to add the bootdrive to the SET Path variable. Fixed all reported errors. Tyra/2 is shareware and you will have 31 days to test it. If you are an author of a piece of OS/2 Freeware you can get a key for free. You can download the newest version of Tyra/2 from this sites: http://www.opweb.de/ ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incomming/tyra170e.zip (will be moved in time to) ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/config/tyra170e.zip And in the next days at: http://www.bmtmicro.com/catalog/tyra2.html ------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ -------------------------------------------------------
