OS/2 Tuning Site Open.
A topic of perennial interest is "How do I configure OS/2 in such a way as to improve its performance?" I have therefore decided to put together a web page on this subject.
The URL is http://www.ee.newcastle.edu.au/users/staff/peter/os2/tuning.html.
This is a non-commercial site.
Remark: there are undoubtedly other tuning tips that I forgot or didn't know about. Contributions to this page would be more than welcome.

WebNavigator v1.1 Available.
JMA SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES SHIPS WEBNAVIGATOR 1.1 FOR OS/2 VERSION 3 AND 4
Today, JMA Software Technologies started to ship updated WebNavigator 1.1 (formerly HTMLview). WebNavigator is a Internet web browser and HTML document viewer built to be compact and easy to use.
Features include online and offline browsing, news and mail support, internal/external downloads, select a new link while a document is loading, easy to use QuickList and others.
WebNavigator is also available in customized versions. If your company has need for a specialized and/or featured restricted web browser please contact us for more information.
But what about WebExplorer and Netscape Navigator?
WebNavigator is not built to be the all in one Internet application. WebExplorer and Navigator both tries to incorporate as much as possible but we found out - asking our users - that most users prefer separate mail and news clients. Therefore WebNavigator is built to be a quick an compact browser though is supports mail and news.
WebNavigator is quite similar to WebExplorer. They both use the same API and share many features. WebExplorer has not changed much the last year and IBM has publicly stated that WebExplorer will not be enhanced.
Netscape Navigator is a full feature browser and mail/news client. WebNavigator is not built to compete with that. On the other hand the current Navigator for OS/2 is a 2,8 MB file while WebNavigator is around 100 kb. Many of our users use both browsers.
But the most compelling reason for WebNavigator is that you can influence the features. Try calling IBM or Netscape and ask for a specific feature, our browser (WebNavigator) is built on what our testers asked for.
WebNavigator 1.1 ships as Trial and Registered Editions. The Registered Edition lists for USD $25. The Trial Edition is a free trial version that might be evaluated in 30 days. The Trial Edition has a timeout and has limitations on its features. Any use after the trial period requires you to register. Unregistered use after the evaluation period is illegal.
The Trial Edition is available for download from our world wide web site and from several public ftp sites.
This upgrade is free for registered users of HTMLview 1.0.
For site licenses please contact us via internet mail.
JMA Software Technologies offers maintenance and support services for all its products. For information on maintenance and support services visit our world wide web site.
Please note that support is only available to registered users.
WebNavigator can be purchased through BMT Micro.

Trilliun Software Products (TSP) has updated their web page with some scenarios for Master of the Empire, and also screen shots of some our campaigns in progress. Also is included a new OS/2 programming article which is a continuation of the article in the OS/2 Magazine (Jan 1997) issue. The subject covered is basic "regional context blitting" and really speeds up an application if used correctly.
Also TSP will be publishing a white paper on the Trilliun Internet Engine (TIE) that will be used in an upcoming as of yet untitled fantasy strategy game, so stay tuned.
You can find Trilliun at -> http://ares.csd.net/~tsp/. New Version of Zap-O-Comm for OS/2 Available.

TE/2 Classic v1.33a Available.
Users have reported that TE/2 Classic version 1.33 contains a problem wherein the program will abnormally terminate with a STS3175 error if the dialer window is aborted via the ESCape or DELete key. Oberon Software is committed to providing quality software and we have deemed this problem of sufficient magnitude to warrant immediate action. Yesterday we released TE/2 Classic intermediate version 1.33a with a correction for this problem.
The file name for the TESTDRIVE version is TE2A133T.ZIP and is available now at the following sites:
Oberon Software BBS 507-388-1154 OS/2 Shareware BBS 703-385-4325 BMT Micro BBS 910-799-0923 HOBBES If you have already downloaded the previous version (TE2_133T.ZIP) and want to update only your executable file, you should find the file TE2133AT.ZIP, which contains only the revised program file, at any of these sites as well.
Registered users of the commercial version of TE/2 Classic will find version 1.33a updates on the Oberon Software BBS and Web Page as well.
Oberon Software sincerely apologizes for any problems or inconvenience this error may have caused you. We will, in the future, refrain from issuing new program releases on any Friday the 13th as well. :) Copyright © 1996 - Falcon Networking
