There is an OS/2 2.0 version of GNU find (as well as locate!).  It is in a 
file called "GNUFIND.ZIP" (or some such) in the directory /pub/os2/2.0/gnu.  
GNU find was never part of their file utilities package anyway.  I don't 
know how you can use it search many different partitions though, since under 
Unix different partions are mounted as directories.  Would "find / -name 
junk -exec rm {}\;" delete all files named "junk" in all partions?  I have 
only one partion, so I haven't been able to find out.  However, find, locate 
and updatedb all work very nicely under OS/2.  Hope this helps.

Subject: AmiPro 3.0 font metrics wrong?
Summary: where is WYSIWYG in AmiPro 3.0?
Keywords: font metrics, AmiPro 3.0, WYSIWYG?
Organization: University of Hamburg, FRG
Date:  9 Nov 92 08:15:06 GMT

Hi,

i tried to install AmiPro 3.0 on my OS/2 2.0+SP yesterday. After some 
problems with Help, missing DLLs atc. AmiPro came up finally. I tried
a simple list with tabs like this


article 1			xxx
article 1			yyy
article 1 description long	zzz

On screen, it looked like the list above. But it was printd like this:

article 1			xxx
article 1			yyy
article 1 description long		zzz

So the font metrics for my deskjet were not the same as on screen.
Now I wonder: where is the WYSIWYG for AmiPro 3.0? I used
the TmsRmn font, because TimesRomanPS were printed as Courier
(some more broken WYSIWYG or what?) on my Deskjet.

I know something about fonts (I guess so), and if AmiPro uses the ATM
on screen for anything, why does it try to use the printer font
for printing. There are always problem with metrics if you use
it this way.

Any ideas why Lotus did this bad job on AmiPro?

Not really.  The SVGADATA.PMI file does nothing for your PM desktop
(usually).  It's for DOS sessions that use sVGA modes so that OS/2 can
preserve the screens when switching in and out of the sessions.

That page is only there if you have a DISPLAY.DLL file that supports
multiple resolutions (like the TSENG and 8514/a drivers).

Organization: Lehigh University


    A WP rep dropped by my store yesterday to give us a demp of WP
    Demonstrations.

    He was a well informed man who was giving us a real push about the 'new'
    *upgrade* for DOS/WIN 5.2.

    As my bosses devoured his every word (Lehigh sites WP, adn sells a lot of
    Windows copies...God know's why), I sat patiently, ready to inquire about
    OS/2.

    I got the impression that WP for OS/2 will be out at least a quater after
    WP 6.0. IT seems that teh DOS 6.0 version should 'knock our socks off'. He
    wouldn't let the cat out of the bag, but look for a GIU, and integration
    for graphics with WP Presentations.

    So, there will be know 5.2 for OS/2 (Heck, there never was a 5.1). 6.0
    should be out within 9 months, with full 32 bit capabilities.

    I could not get out of him why production is lagging. He hinted that a PM
    version of WP could possibly aslo incorporate WP PResentations right into
    WP 6.0 for OS/2. That would be a step in the right direction.

    Keep in mind these are assumptions derived from his answers and attitude.
    The only pure fact I have is upcoming 5.2 releases, and teh emminent GUI
    6.0 version for DOS.

    Too bad...I guess I will have to continue usend Word 2.0, that is until I
    can get my hands Describe 4.0 (3.0 demo is way crippled to give a
    resonable test too).


                                            just some scoop,

Does the TCP/IP package need to see an ethernet card in the box?

I have a 486/33 with 20 MB and I want to set up a client server application
that will eventually run on a network,  However I don't have a network..

I don't see any reason why I can't have the server & client running in the
same box....  Does TCP/IP uses sockets and all that neat stuff like unix?

IBM tech support was no help with this...

How much is TCP/IP with an educational discount?
How much Harddrive space is needed?

Keywords: SoundBlaster-PRO, multi-media

Hi there,

I've written an Oscilloscope app that uses my fullscreen 320x200
direct graphics library...

It works at up to 42khz on my 486/50 with my sound blaster pro...

I'm still working on improving it, but at the moment all work has
hit a snag because the "Service Pak" aka "CSD" etc. broke the 
soundblaster driver from Michael Fullbright (at least on my machine).

I sent mail to Michael, but I haven't heard anything back yet.

Unfortunately I have a feeling that it isn't anything that Michael
will be able to fix, because it is probably something wrong with
the Service Pak itself... I've had various other device drivers
break with installation of the Service Pak.

I'm assuming that you are using the GA with Michael's drivers right?
If you ARE using the CSD, please let me know, as it may be that only
certain versions of the driver are affected.

After I get the GA+CSD and SBOS2 driver working again, I'll continue
working on my oscilloscope app.

I'll probably port a bunch of other sound-related stuff to OS/2 sometime
shortly after that...

Later,
        John Stone

The problem with this approach (which is what I used to do) is that it
only transfers one of the icon forms.  A better way is to use the "Save
as" choice from the IconEdit menu to write the icon (all forms) to a
temporary file, then use Find on the program object that you want to
recieve the icon.

After all the discussion on the recent releases of OS/2 ports of
GhostScript, I am surprised to find that Yang's version runs much to
my satisfaction. It's the one in the uploads directory on hobbes, with
the name of gsos2pm10.zoo. It is _much_ faster than the version that I
had used earlier. YES, it hangs an OS/2 window session if started from there.
But also: YES, there is no problem if it is started from an icon on the

You have to run your tape backups under "native" DOS. It will not
work under the os2-dos session. I have a CMS 250M tape backup and
it works fine after I dualboot to regular DOS. However it will
only work for FAT drives but I hear that CMS is working on an OS/2
version of their backup software expected out by the end of the year.

I just checked; there is no PM Draw included with OS/2 2.0 .

OK.....here are some things to try:
 
1. Add "call=c:\os2\mode.com com2:57600,n,8,1,RTS=HS" to your config.sys.
 
2. Make sure you have the COMMPAK2.DLL contained in the cpk2_102.zip files.
This is the most current (at least it is as far as i know).
 
3. Make sure you have these statements in your modem.inc file:


Connect       CONNECT^M,300
Connect       CONNECT_1200,1200
Connect       CONNECT_2400,2400
Connect       CONNECT_9600,9600
Connect       CONNECT_12000,12000
Connect       CONNECT_14400,14400
Connect       CONNECT_19200,19200
Connect       CONNECT_38400,38400
Connect       CONNECT_57600,57600

These things, along with TE/2 V1.20 *should* see you going fine.

Sounds like you're still running the OS/2 boot program (the hidden files
which receive control during boot).  Try rebuilding the boot process on the
hard disk by booting from a DOS floppy, then issuing the command:

  SYS C:

which will rebuild the boot sector program and place the necessary
hidden files (IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS) on your C: drive.

Also, make sure that all the OS/2 hidden files actually were deleted.  OS/2
has a few files which will confuse certain commands because their filenames
include embedded blanks.
