FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BOCASOFT WIPEOUT FOR OS/2
NOW RUNS AFTER DARK SCREEN SAVERS
BOCA RATON, FL - BocaSoft, developers of the "leading edge" screen saver
for OS/2, BocaSoft Wipeout has introduced a new module that allows WipeOut
users to run any of the hundreds of popular After Dark Screen Savers from
Berkeley Systems.
This is good news to the ever expanding universe of OS/2 users because it
includes such popular products as After Dark Version 2, More After Dark, Star
Trek, and The Disney Collection Screen Savers. In addition, audio for After
Dark Savers can be generated from the user's PC Speaker or audio board.
"This is truly a unique approach to running the Windows After Dark Savers
from our OS/2 engine", said Bill Stewart, BocaSoft President and co-founder.
"It exploits some very sophisticated OS/2 and WIN-OS/2 capabilities with
fantastic results. A lot of OS/2 converts will be able to dust off their
favorite savers and run them again using our technology", he added.
The savers run in a seamless WIN-OS/2 session but are controlled from the
OS/2 program.
"It really is impressive integration", said Stewart, "and our existing users
can simply add the module to their current WipeOut version".
Users can download this free WipeOut Module from CompuServe in the BocaSoft
Library or receive a diskette from Indelible Blue, Inc. at 800/776-8284 for a
$5 shipping and handling charge.
To run the WipeOut Module, users must have After Dark installed in their
WIN-OS/2 environment. To run audio for the savers, the appropriate audio
driver must be installed in WIN-OS/2.
BocaSoft, located in Boca Raton, Florida, near IBM's OS/2 Development Facility,
is a privately owned and operated software development company specializing in
high performance multimedia applications for the OS/2 Operating System.
End users can order BocaSoft WipeOut and BocaSoft System Sounds through
Indelible Blue, Inc. at 800/776-8284, IBM at 800/342-6672, The Corner Store
