Not without changing a piece of OS/2.  OS/2 will not (or can not)
provide a DOS box more than 1000 interrupts per second.  9600 baud
requires (at no parity, 8 data bits, one stop bit, one start bit) 960
interrupts per second to receive a continuous stream.  Faster speeds
will go beyond the limit and fail.

Note, you can set the port to faster, and you can certainly send data
at those speeds, but receiving at high speeds will require interrupts
to go faster than OS/2 allows.  Either use real DOS or an OS/2 comm
program.

Our local Wordperfect rep dropped in today and told me that he would be able
to let me have a look at the beta for WordPerfect 5.2 for OS/2 in a few weeks
- Feb/Mar.  He said it was a Presentation Manager app. 
 
I was surprised, as the last I had heard, WP did not intend to release 5.2 for

I look forward to having a chance to use this!

How about just putting it into the startup folder instead of starting it from

Tim, do you or does anyone else know if there is a Norton NCD-like program 
available for os/2?  Basically, all it does is allow one to change directories
from the command line by typing only part of a directory name.  For example,
to change into /tim/sipples/faq...I could just type ncd faq.

Uh-uh.  I've seen this on the Amiga and it is brilliant.  Most of the time,
a virtual disk is empty -- it is best used to hold temporary files.  Thus,
when the disk is particulary big (4Mb+), and empty, you litteraly end up
wasting that precious memory.  Now, an intelligent RAM disk (like those
found on the Amiga) will only "dynamically" allocate  memory as it needs
it.  This can be real-RAM memory (as opposed to swappable disk memory).
When the files are deleted from the RAM disk, the memory is released thus
the RAM disk never wastes more system (RAM) memory then is needed to hold
all its files, i.e. 0Kb when it's empty.  I've never seen such a RAM disk
on a PC-based system though, whether DOS-based or OS/2-based.

Are you listening, IBM?  ;^)

After being forced to Sytos Plus at work, I'm giving strong consideration 
to an alternate (like Backmaster, besides I like underdogs..). We renamed 
Sytos to SyPig soon after I had to start using it. Version 1.34 was so 
stupid that it requests ALL the resources it can and brings our IBM Mod 
95 server to its knees. This was supposed to be fixed in later releases 
(v 1.35 and on). Folks at work (preceeding me) tell me that Sytos support 
is bad. Anybody else out there with similar\opposite experience with 
Sytos?

I just received a mailer from Lotus today where they have included a
pamphlet announcing Lotus 123 for OS/2, Release 2.0 and also Freelance
Graphics for OS/2, Release 2. Release 2 refers to version numbers of 
Lotus products not OS/2. The phone number listed for information is
1-800-343-5414 (and 1-800-go-lotus for Canada.

Also, according to a flyer I received from IBM announcing the OS/2
Technical interchange conference in Arizona from Feb. 28 - Mar.3rd,
they are giving away copies of Lotus Freelance Graphics and CA-realizer
among others to all attendees. There are conference sessions devoted 
to Borland, CA,and Lotus. Among the products mentioned are Borland
C++, CA-Unicenter, dbFast, RET, Realizer, and C++.

It seems that good things are getting closer to reach.

Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1993 20:09:13 GMT

Last night, running a Fastback 2.10 restore in a DOS Full Screen, the

      The system detected an internal processing

      The system is stopped.  Record the location number 
      of the error and contact your service representative.

The crash was not repeatable.  The system was GA+SP.


My question, for those of you who have closer ties with IBM:

Since they're almost at 2.1, is IBM still interested in a report on
a crash like this?  Even when it's not repeatable?  I don't feel a
burning need to follow up -- It only happened once.

Rather than waste bandwidth, system configuration is available upon

Reply-To: roe2@midway.uchicago.edu
Organization: University of Chicago
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1993 19:42:26 GMT

I have uploaded to ftp-os2.nmsu.edu:/pub/uploads/pkz204c.exe the new
version of PKZIP/PKUNZIP, released on 5 Jan 93.  Here's my description
file:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Program Description [ PKZ204C.EXE:  PKZIP v2.04c for *MS-DOS* ]

Program Source: (PKWARE BBS -> wuarchive -> trusted ftp site -> Greg Roelofs)
Proposed directory: os2/all/archivers/


Notes:  See comp.compression for loads of discussion about this file.

  This executable is the version which was tested by Vesselin Bontchev
  of the German anti-virus institute (whatever it's called); it *is*
  virus-free, as he has publicly attested, despite the reports of old
  versions of Norton Anti-Virus (2.0 or earlier, which falsely report
  the presence of the Maltese Amoeba virus).

  The proper size for this file is 188818 bytes; Unix "sum pkz204c.exe"
  reports "36332 185".  Zipping it into another zipfile (e.g., with
  "zip19 test pkz204c.exe") gives a CRC of d864b4ba.

  NOTE THAT THIS IS AN MS-DOS PROGRAM!!  I uploaded it because a lot of
  folks seem to prefer official PKWARE products over Info-ZIP's UnZip
  (Philistines!! :-b ).  This version of PKUNZIP will extract zipfiles
  created by Zip 1.9 (to the best of our knowledge), but it will NOT
  restore any OS/2 extended attributes which have been saved (obviously--
  this is an MS-DOS program, after all).  Ya gets what ya asks for...

  Note also that several bugs have already been reported, including ones
  with the auto-detection and use of DPMI memory.  Therefore, use the -)
  switch when running under OS/2 2.0, at least (and maybe when running
  under 1.x, too).  Someone posted more detailed hints in comp.compression.

  Finally, note that this version of PKZIP can create files which UnZip
  5.0 is unable to extract--in particular, the file PKZIP.EXE itself is
  not extractable.  A "semi-official" patch to the sources has already
  been posted to comp.compression by Mark Adler (author of the inflate
  routine); look for a more official patch plus new executables, etc., to
  be available sometime next week (10-16 Jan 93), with luck.  This patch
  release will NOT in all likelihood handle multi-part archives.

I have 20MB and tried to use MEMMAN to run without swapping.
After starting EPM from an os2 window, the system hung.  Nothing 
else was running.  I tried this just after rebooting (caused by
changing config.sys MEMMAN.)

I don't recommend using it even with 20MB.

With swapping enabled, my swap size very rarely goes beyond the 
inital (1MB) value specified in config.sys.  I only tried to disable
swapping in the first place to see if, on my system, os2 can really
see > 16MB of RAM.  I do have the SP16MB patch applied.  I am at
level XR06055.

I'm trying to get Deskpic 1.32 working with my OS/2 system (GA+SP).
I have it installed and configured, and put a line in my STARTUP.CMD
file that says "START DESKPIC.EXE".
Now when I boot up it starts with the screen saver right away.  Is
there a way to get it to wait for the inactivity time out?
