- Smart Windows patch #6.5
- Module replacer V. 0,1
- Swap Monitor V. 0.35
--------------------------------------------------------------
Smart Windows is an OS/2 user interface enhancer with both
aesthetical and functional features.
Here you can find a new patch (42 KB):
ftp://ftp.ghostbbs.ml.org/pub/os2/os2team/alcant/smwp0065.zip
Note:
If you already installed patch #6.4 and are not running an
unattended machine with REIPL=ON in your CONFIG.SYS file,
you can avoid to install this patch and wait for the next
one.
This is only SMARTWIN.DLL and corrects:
- Message boxes reporting error messages, appearing during
system boot, have been removed. If an error prevents
SMARTWIN.DLL from beeing loaded, a short series of beeps
will warn the user and a message will be written to the
file SMARTWIN.LOG in the root directory of the boot drive.
If you want to test it put your computer clock back one day
and then reboot. On system boot you'll hear some sounds
from the PC loudspeaker and shall be able to read the
error message from the LOG file. To re-enable Smart Windows, after the test, reset the machine clock to the correct date and reboot.
- This doesn't extend the trial time.

Module Replacer V. 0.1 is an OS/2 text mode executable
which unlocks running DLL and EXE files optionally
replacing them with a new file and saving a backup copy of
the old file.

Swap Monitor is a small REXX application which allows to
control the swap file size at a settable interval, keeping
track of the current and the maximum size. It can record
the data in a log file in various mode while displaying
them in a nice looking and colorful OS/2 text mode window.
