Network Trace for OS/2 - Turn any OS/2 machine into a network probe. - Take a trace on any segment in the network, in minutes. - A software-only, hardware-independent implementation. http://www.goldencode.com/ntrace.html ********************************************************************* Source: Wayne Swanson (swanee@pillarsoft.net) Moderator: Trevor Smith (feedback@warpcast.com) ------------------------------------------------------- A major revision is about to take place... Just in time for WarpTech... WarpZip does it again! AND THE BIG NEWS IS WarpZip takes a major step forward in version 3.0 and will arrive just in time for WarpTech. We have added support to open, extract and view files contained in RAR, ARJ and LHA (LZH) archives. Support has also been added to perform directory, directory tree or even complete partition searches for each of these formats as well. This is the latest and, what we hope will be, the most functional archiver solution ever produced for the OS/2 family of operating systems. We had originally planned to get this update out in February but over the past few months we have had our share of delays. One thing remains certain... we have never stopped working for the platform. WARPZIP OVERVIEW WarpZip is the latest in ZIP, RAR, ARJ, LZH and OS/2 "Packed" file management. Beneath WarpZip's stunning interface you will find some revolutionary and powerful functions that will save both time and effort and boost your productivity. The integration of a directory tree as part of the interface makes unarchiving complete archives or just selected file(s) from an archive to any directory as simple as a 3 inch drag and drop, to ANYWHERE on your drives. If you don't have the directory you want, create it! You can also open any folder from the directory tree for drag and drop operations. Drag files into or out of archives. Delete any directory or even complete directory trees from WarpZip! Double clicking any "install.exe" entry in an archive automatically opens the archive and starts the installation executable. When you're finished, just click the "Clean up" button and WarpZip will not only delete the mess but destroy all the temporary objects that were created in the process! DOWNLOAD PREPROCESSOR No more manually selecting a directory when downloading from NS. WarpZip's Download PreProcessor allows your browsing sessions to sport one click downloads that obey your every whim. It will selectively move your downloaded zip files to any directory you choose, test them for integrity, virus test them and queue them up for later review by WarpZip. All this is handled seamlessly in the background while you spend your online time making your browser session count. When you're offline, WarpZip will be waiting with the list of files you've downloaded. It will automatically load them in it's queue on startup and present you with any test results you may have requested. PACKED FILES? OS/2 Packed file extensions can have "_" or "@" or no extension at all. So how do you locate them? Better yet, how do you locate and see what files are archived inside of them? We are unaware of any software that will help you find those almost unrecognizable OS/2 packed files except WarpZip. Of course, dragging a file out of them or viewing them is as easy as working with a ZIP, RAR, ARJ or LZH archive. SEARCH FACILITIES WarpZip will search a directory, directory tree, hard disk or CD for ZIP, RAR, ARJ and LZH archives as well as OS/2 packed files. It will add or delete files from archives, view files in archives or you can test run them (to do an installation, for example) and let WarpZip clean up after you. You can test zip files or run virus scans, view bitmaps, grep, build self extractors, copy, move, rename, delete... well... you get the picture... WHERE CAN I FIND IT?
