Hi,
Śledziłem uważnie wszelkie głosy i bardzo się cieszę, że mogłem
bliżej poznać nową wersję Warpa, Linux (od strony użytkowej) i języki.
:)
Wielkie dzięki.
Nie przekonaliście mnie jednak o wyższości "nowych" starych wersji OS/2
nad poprzednimi (np. W4+FP9UK), ale podobno o gustach nie należy
dyskutować.
Niedawno w Voice News pojawił się anons o nowych wersjach XWorkplace
(tekst poniżej) i WarpIN. Uruchomiłem je na zapasowej partycji i po raz
pierwszy jestem zadowolony z działania opcji wirtualnych pulpitów
(PageMage).
Pakiet XWorkplace zawiera także wiele innych udogodnień, z których
należy korzystać ostrożnie, gdyż program ingeruje w klasy. Polecam
wszystkim cierpiącym na niedosyt funkcji usprawniających pracę Warpa.
Pakiet ma tylko jedną wadę - pobierałem to-to przez kilka dni, gdyż z
podanego adresu bajty ciekły jak krew z nosa (co chwila rwała się
transmisja). Ale warto było czekać (i płacić!!).

From: os2.org
WarpIN and XWorkplace have both been updated to V0.9.8.
Note that XWorkplace and WarpIN V0.9.7 were never officially released,
but since some people managed to get hold of them anyway, that version
number was skipped to avoid confusion.
1. WarpIN V0.9.8 has been released.
WarpIN is intended to become the new universal OS/2 installer. It is
becoming more and more popular among OS/2 developers because of its
flexibility and ease of use. It has full system configuration
(CONFIG.SYS, WPS classes, WPS objects) and can fully undo all the
changes to your system again. V0.9.8 is mainly another maintenance
release. This fixes bug with target paths and CONFIG.SYS manipulation.
2. XWorkplace V0.9.8 is out also.
XWorkplace is the most feature-rich freeware Workplace Shell enhancer on
the planet, and even better, it is OpenSource. XWorkplace is the
successor to my popular XFolder utility and has become a Netlabs
project. Among many other things, XWorkplace gives you the following
features:
Tons of folder enhancements, such as status bars, freely configurable
context menus, global sort options, and much more.
Extended file associations, which replace the illogical WPS associations
by type and filter separately.
Easy CONFIG.SYS management thru a WPS object.
A trash can which supports all WPS delete operations.
Replacement default icons.
Improvements to startup and shutdown: boot logos, a replacement startup
folder, a complete rewrite of the OS/2 shutdown sequence (including
automatic reboot, APM power-off, and a shutdown folder).
Mouse and keyboard enhancements, including sliding focus, sliding menus,
global object hotkeys, folder hotkeys, mouse-button-3 scrolling.
Enhanced multimedia, such as more system sounds.
In addition, V0.9.8 now gives you the XCenter (a WarpCenter replacement)
and a "font folder" for viewing, installing, and deinstalling fonts.
Besides, PageMage is becoming really useable now. To install XWorkplace,
you also need the latest WarpIN.

homepage for detailed information and download addresses:

WarpIN and XWorkplace are Netlabs projects, released under the GNU
General Public Licence. The source code is available on the Netlabs CVS
server. See www.netlabs.org/nosa and my homepage for details. We have
created four mailing lists at www.egroups.com.
warpin-user
warpin-dev
xworkplace-user
xworkplace-dev
<(/ul>for WarpIn and XWorkplace users and developers, respectively. We
are grateful for feedback on these mailing lists.
Note: If you have linked to the above address of my hompage, please
update your links to point to www.netlabs.org instead, because my
homepage will change in the near future. The Netlabs pages will be
updated shortly.
Have fun!
