Dates of Interest

Presidents Message

Tony was definitely jazzed by the stimulating presentations two of our members put on last month. It's super when our folks share their favorite applications and tricks with the rest of us.

DOWNLOAD!

What's new in OS/2-ville? Download will tell you, and link you there. Every month there's a new list of apps and files for you to peruse.

Bit Rates When Encoding MP3 Files

Darryl Sperber wrote this in response to a question on comp.os.os2.multimedia. It's a great education in MP3 encoding.

CountStr and ChangeStr for Classic REXX

Dallas Legan discovered that the ANSI standard for classic REXX included two functions that are actually missing - CountStr and ChangeStr. CountStr counts the non-overlapping instances of a substring, and ChangeStr changes them. These seem like they could be useful functions, so Dallas got to wondering just how they might be implemented. Dallas shares his considerations of CountStr and ChangeStr.

Dear Mr. Know-It-All

Symantec's Norton AntiVirus insists on installing itself on drive c:. But you don't have to live with that - on OS/2 you can have it elsewhere. Mr. Know-It-All is quite sure about that.

Looking Elsewhere:
Keeping Up With the Gates - mp3 encoding under OS/2

Starting with a test WAV file, and using the same bit rate for each, Don Eitner compares MP3 encoding time using Lame and GoGo. This makes a good companion to our article on MP3 Bit Rates.

Elections, Elections

Wow - time flies when you're having fun, doesn't it?! Have you thought about the elections coming in March?
