- I'll add the OS/2 Professional Development Kit..
- This CD has LOTS of OS/2 utilities. I'll cite the previous one,
- I didn't receive the latest version yet:
- * Employee developped stuff, most of it can be found also at
- ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.
- * Beta software. I havent received the latest one, but the previous
- one had Lan Server 3 Beta on it, along with new OS/2 2.1beta..
- * The Multimedia Manager for OS/2. It also comes with many sample "movies"
- sampled at different rates to show speed/image quality.
- * And of course the IBM C++/2 32-bit Compiler (beta), Toolkit
- (header files and utilities like a great application to
- create entire interactive windows by dragging the items to your window.
- * Oh yes, also, lots of documentation, including the printable versions
- of it, the entire toolkit's documentation, lots of stuff on
- PM software development, System Object Model, resource compiler,
- System functions reference, Rexx Users Guide/Reference Guide..
-
- The previous CD was _full_. Over 600 megabytes of stuff! I can't wait
- for the next one.
-
- I had sort-of-registered myself as a shareware software developper to their
- DAP program, but they were not able to find my number (and I didn't know it),
- so I am told that "others" can obtain it for 25 british pounds. So, I assume
- it is available to general public - thus I am writing this message.
- The number for "World-Wide Developers Assistance Program" is (44)285-641175.
- It is in the UK, sorry, I dont know their U.S. number..
