Developer's toolkit and documentation for the LVM API.

Recent versions of OS/2 use the Logical Volume Manager (LVM), a powerful replacement for FDISK. The functionality of LVM is contained in LVM.DLL, a.k.a. the 'LVM Engine'. This toolkit makes that engine available for any application developer to use as a public API. This makes it possible to write (for instance) a completely new user interface for LVM. Documentation and sample programs are included.

PMStripper 1.26 released

I have released PMStripper 1.26 and uploaded the shareware version to hobbes (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu) as pms_126.zip. It is currently in the /pb/incoming directory, but it will be moved to /pub/os2/apps/internet/www/util

This PM utility strips HTML codes from Web pages, leaving only the text and optionally the URLs. While the layout of tables and lists is lost during stripping, data is sorted to separate lines for legibility. It now translates iso8859-1 character codes (windows codepage) to codepage 437 or codepage 850 character codes.

Although Netscape will save a web page as plain ascii text, it also saves the layout of the page. Using PMStripper as the HTML source viewer with Netscape will make it easier obtain just the text of an article posted on a web page.

New in PMStripper 1.26

Added accelerator keys Alt+1 , Alt+2, Alt+3, Alt+C, and Ctrl+E

Alt+1 toggles the "discard the first 100 lines" option and then reloads the source file

Alt+2 toggles the "discard the first 200 lines" option and then reloads the source file

Alt+3 toggles the "discard the first 300 lines" option and then reloads the source file. Alt+C performs the same function as ALT+3. Since "discard the first 300 lines" works best for the CNN site, I selected Alt+C as a reminder.

Ctrl+E marks the text from the current cursor position to the end of text.

The following key combinations work in PMStripper and many other OS/2 applications.
Shift+Home moves the cursor to the top of the text
Shift+End moves the cursor to the end of the text
Ctrl+Shift+Home selects the text from the current position to the top of the text
Ctrl+Shift+End selects the text from the current position to the end of the text

New in PMStripper 1.25

Added menu entries under "Strip Options" to discard the first 100, 200, or 300 lines. Using one of these options may eliminate most of unwanted text from sidebar links that appear on the left side of many web pages. On some sites (such as CNN.com) the sidebar links can result in several pages of text and blank lines that are not part of the wanted information on a web page.

New in PMStripper 1.24

Added 'Translate iso8859-1 character codes' option under 'Strip Options'. Fixed bug in how html comments are stripped.

New in PMStripper 1.23

Added 'Hard code word wrap' menu item under "File" on the menubar. This option adds CR-LF pairs to each line in the display window to make the current word wrap permanent. This should make it easier to print the stripped text.

RexxMail build 20020606.154204 released.

A new build of RexxMail is available from my web site:
http://www.degeus.com/rexx/rexxmail_english.html
or
http://www.degeus.com/rexx/rexxmail_nederlands.html

where you can also view the RexxMail on-line tutorial, readme, history, and changes files.

The distribution ZIP file is also available from the Hobbes repository:

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/cgi-bin/h-search?key=rexxmail

Changes:

The operation of the mailing list mechanism has been changed. Instead of the previous "To: listname@rexxmail" construct, RexxMail now uses the standard RFC method of addressing a group list: "To: list:;", i.e. the name of the list file, followed by a colon and a semicolon. In addition, RexxMail can now send a message to every address in a RexxMail addresses folder, simply by substituting the name of the folder for the list file name.

The "/NewMessage", "/NewMessageHere", "/NewMessageOpen", and "/NewMessageHereOpen" command switches now also accept address strings starting with "mailto:" (case-insensitive) to achieve compatibility with some software featuring "mailto:" exits for calling external mailers.

RexxMail is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, see http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html

Update on the eCS IRC network....

I would like to thank all people who wanted to run an IRC deamon and again Massimo Sangriso who has invested quite a lot of hours in the eComStation IRC network.

As I wrote in the previous message:

You can get an IRC client from hobbes http://hobbes.nmsu.edu. My personal favorite (maybe not the best around), is EZIRC. Which has some easy features. This and other clients can be found at Judy's Warped World IRC page:

http://www.gt-online.com/~bri/irc_clients.html

If you don't want to dive into an IRC client goto www.ecomstation.com and click on "support/FAQ for eCS". Choose for "Live eCS Chat" and click on "open chat window". Choose your nickname and connect.

If you don't want to dive into an IRC client goto www.ecomstation.com and click on "support/FAQ for eCS". Choose for "Live eCS Chat" and click on "open chat window". Choose your nickname and connect.

The direct URL is:

http://www.ecomstation.com/support-faq_view.phtml?url=content/ecs_community_chat.html

Please note if your browser crashes it could be that you are running a wrong version of Java (1.1.8 or 1.3 should work) or something is wrong with the configuration. The Java applet has been succesfully tested with Netscape 4.61 for OS/2, Opera for OS/2, Warpzilla for OS/2 and the IBM Browser for OS/2. If you don't have an OS/2 box handy and you want to connect, it also has been tested with Netscape 6.2 and Internet Explorer 5.5 under Windows 2000.

You can however via the webinterface only connect to the default eCS channel. If you want to reach other channels on the network, download an IRC client and connect to one of the servers directly.

For the OS/2 advocates who would like to know. All servers in the network so far are OS/2 /eCS machines. Possibly some Linux boxes will join in the future.... But our intention is to keep it mainly running on OS/2 of course...

The following servers are now on the network
ITALY
irc.quasarbbs.net port 6667 (International Hub)
irc.ecomstation.it 6667
irc.itisvinci.com port 6667
irc.dinosoft.it 6667

NewsFlash EWWS - Issue May 2002

From: EMEA WarpService/Germany/IBM @ IBMDE on 25.05.2002 21.49
Dear all, this is your latest EWWS NewsFlash.
This issue covers:
- a) OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 Version 4.52 FixPak 1 (XR_F001) available
- b) IBM ThinkPad T30 with OS/2 support announced
- c) Software Choice @ Amazon
- d) IBM Networks Primary Logon Client 4.5 including Windows XP Support
- e) IBM OS/2 Strategy for 2002
- f) New Epson printer support coming soon
- g) VirtualPC TTT class coming
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
a) OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 Version 4.52 FixPak 1 (XR_F001) available

The first FixPak for CP 2 is available via SoftwareChoice. Attention: This FixPak includes important fixes for Intel Pentium 4 Systems with more than 512 MB of RAM and for systems dumping on large IDE drives (using LBA).

In order to install CP 2 on a Pentium 4 system with more than 512 MB of RAM, you need to apply the corresponding fix (p4fix.zip) to your installation media before installation. We recommend using updated boot diskettes instead of burning an updated installation CD-ROM unless you are very familiar with bootable OS/2 CD-ROMs.
Get the FixPak from http://www3.software.ibm.com/cgi-bin/asd/priv/rsudl/images/xr_f001
(english version)
http://www3.software.ibm.com/cgi-bin/asd/priv/rsudl/images/xrgf001
(german version)

b) IBM ThinkPad T30 with OS/2 support announced
This is an excerpt from
http://www.ibmlink.ibm.com/emealets&parms=H_ERIFZG020251
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following operating systems support the ThinkPad T30 computer:
-OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 Version 4.52 with FixPak XR_F001 or later (Note 1)
-OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 1 Version 4.51 with FixPak XR_C002 or later
-OS/2 Warp 4.0 with FixPak XR_M016 or later and Device Driver FixPak XR_D002 or later
OS/2 Warp V4.0 Limitations:
-For OS/2 operating system, the standby and hibernation power management functions are not supported.
-OS/2 users should not enter suspend/hibernation mode with an Ethernet or token-ring card installed.
***Sidenote: In contrast to the limitations stated above, suspending a ThinkPad does work well in the following scenarios:
- Use e100b.os2 (Intel(R) PRO PCI Driver) v4.35 or later for the built in MiniPCI Ethernet card. This driver will be released on DDPak as soon as testing has been finished successfully.
- Use ibmtokcs.os2 (unmodified from Convenience Pak) for IBM Turbo 16/4 PCMCIA Token Ring adapters. An overview of updated drivers needed to run OS/2 on a T30 can be found at http://www7.software.ibm.com/2bcprod.nsf/4eddaa42e99c19e186256a700058020a/8dc8006e4d79dd5286256ba60059c245?OpenDocument
and http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/MIGR-42358.html?lang=en_US&page=brand&brand=root&doctype=&subtype=Cat
The video driver available for download there is Scitech Display Doctor 7.09-RC6.

Euro: 296.54

P.S.: No, we do not know why the german version is so much more expensive...
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
d) IBM Networks Primary Logon Client 4.5 including Windows XP Support

If you look at the Software Choice site, you will find the XP PLC since 07. May 2002

IBM Networks Primary Logon Client 4.5 for Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows XP Professional With this client, Windows(R) clients can interoperate IBM OS/2 Warp Server for e-business and can access their domain resources, including support for home directories, logon assignments, network applications, and logon scripts.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
e) IBM OS/2 Strategy for 2002

IBM Software Group's strategy for 2002 can be seen online at http://www.ibm.com/software/os/warp/strategy There is also a PDF version available for download.

Of interest is the information on defect support: It will expire for Warp Server for e-business on May 31, 2002 and for IBM WorkSpace On-Demand 2.0 on December 31, 2002 IBM plans to provide defect support for Convenience Packages through December 31, 2004.

Epson gave us notice on an upcoming drop of EPOMNI coming mid of June, supporting
the following printer models:
- EPSON Stylus C60
- EPSON Stylus C70
- EPSON Stylus C80

Also, it seems, that Epson is investigating on supporting newer models of the Photo printers. We will post an update, as soon as we receive any news.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
g) VirtualPC TTT class coming

VirtualPC, both the OS/2 and the Windows version. This class we cover all insights, tuning, optimizations, enabling / disabling features, working with additions, dealing with the Virtual switch and so on. Primarily this class will be for IBM internals (ITS projects and support) and Business Partners, both with current need in customer projects. Everybody else will be put on standby and be confirmed on short notice, if space permits. Shedule currently includes a class in Europe (Germany, area of Cologne) and USA (most likely Atlanta).

Please sent mail to emeawarp@de.ibm.com, requesting update on VPC-TTT-Class, if you are interested to attend.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

That's it for now. Stay tuned for the next NewsFlash. Warm regards.
