CM. Is there an OS/2 hard disk backup program that's any good?

Well, Chris...  The folks at Sterling Software have just introduced
Intelligent Backup for OS/2.  It is a once-a-year full backup program
which interleaves daily backups in the original diskettes.  It does
pretty good compression and ensures that your pool of backup diskettes
always matches what is actually on the hard disk.

There is an excellent shareware product for DOS called FlexiBack Plus
which is based on the same idea.  Unfortunately, like a lot of people,
the author is not yet convinced that OS/2 is going to take off <g>.

Ordinarily you would add (setq visible-bell t) to your .emacs file to `flash'
the screen instead of sounding the bell, but I don't know of any way to do
this on a PC. Insead change :vb=^G: to :vb=: in the term entry of your

There is no reason why you would need to use the Copy II PC Option board
in order to be able to use high density Mac disks.  The 800 and 400K
formats would need it, sure, but the HD Mac disks should be readable
by any standard HD drive as long as you tell it what to look for.

I thought I saw a program a while back that lets PC (hd) drives copy
files to and from a HD Mac disk...anyone know anything about this?

Back to the original idea, though...  Someone should definitely be able
to write an IFS that would allow OS/2 to mount Mac diskettes.  Great
idea!  Any takers?

It is fully possible to run several Windows apps in one common VDM, and
still have seamless Windows. It is also very easy to do. Open the settings
dialog for the Windows program objects you want to have in one VDM, and
uncheck the "Separate session" check box on the "Sessions" page.

If there are any enterprising developers out there, it seems that this

I have renamed gsos2.cmd to gs.cmd and put it in c:\gnu\bin (which is in

I have modified the envioronment variable settings in the .cmd file to

When I try and run either gs.cmd or gs.exe I get an error saying a file
could not be found "EMX". If I try run os2pmdrv, it says os2pmdrv is not

At least they claim they will write them.
Guess this means that the drivers will be ready by '94.
I take it Gravis isn't going to have a PAS emulation which will allow the use
of the PAS OS/2 drivers, which will be avaiblable long before then.
Media Vision already sent a programmer to Boca.

Might have to talk to Central Point in *some* detail - the Mac uses
variable-speed drives, while the PC uses fixed-speed ...I suppose the
Option board diddles the seperator circuitry or some such, but it
seems certain (to me) that such an IFS will depend on unusual hardware
support.

Hello all,
 
I have some question on emacs, which I know have been discussed on

seen these in the FAQ file, either. 
 
 
1) How do I use the cursor program? I changed the screen size with the mode
statement, but my cursor is just a sliver. I tried running the program, but
the cursor didn't change.
 
2) How do I use the Alt key for the Meta key? I don't like having to hit
the escape key - force of habit, I guess.
 
3) Finally, Is there a way to use Control-Space for setting the mark?
 
Thanks for the help!

except that the icons look a trifle too small on my 17" screen.

Anyway, the problem is: I cannot start OS/2 emacs from the WPS anymore,
I mean by clicking on its icon. I am getting an OS/2 prompt with the
error message

emacs: terminal type ansi-color-2 is not defined

(this is the setting in termcap.dat for white on blue). It is of course
defined. When I start emacs from an OS/2 prompt there is no problem.
There also has been no problem when I still had that VGA driver installed
for the WPS.

Now, what is the problem here really?

I just installed OS/2 2.0, and I need some tips on what Shareware/Freeware
to get that will help me out.

What I plan on doing is Programming, Games, sound card applications, word
  processing, in that order.

Another thing, I need some hints that will speed up OS/2 (yes I already have
  the faq). God knows I need it: 386/25 with 4MB RAM, os/2 installed on
  45 MB partition, plain VGA, 16k ram cache. Hopefully, I'll be buying a
  486/33 or 50 soon, but for now, such info would be helpful.

One more thing. When I'm running Telix on full screen Dos, and connected
  to a U. of Mich host at 19200 bps, it displays about a dozen characters,    
  pauses for a second or two, then displays another dozen, and so on. Things   
  speed up if I press a key. I find this really annoying, so what Dos settings
  do I need to mess with? I tried a few video settings but they didn't seem
  to help.

Thanks.

I have read various articles about the new OS/2 COM drivers. What are
the new drivers for? Are they for people who have problems in general or
just using COM3 or COM4? Should I use the new COM drivers even if I have
no problems with the original? Help....
