Just in time for Warpstock Europe, WarpIN and XWorkplace have both been updated to V0.9.5. Both updates are mostly for bugfixing.

1. WarpIN V0.9.5 has been released.

WarpIN is intended to become the new universal OS/2 installer. It is becoming more and more popular among OS/2 developers because of its flexibility and ease of use. It has full system configuration (CONFIG.SYS, WPS classes, WPS objects) and can fully undo all the changes to your system again. This is mainly a maintenance release.

2. XWorkplace V0.9.5 is out also.

XWorkplace is the most feature-rich freeware Workplace Shell enhancer on the planet, and even better, it is open source. XWorkplace is the successor to my popular XFolder utility and has become a Netlabs
project.

In addition to the well-known WPS enhancements added by XFolder already, we now have a trash can, more CONFIG.SYS settings, most of the features of WarpEnhancer, mouse-button-3 scrolling, improved WPS notebook settings pages, a much better "WPS Class List", full sound schemes support in the "Sound" object, and much more.

This new version finally attempts to fix the problems with XShutdown and INI files. Besides, object hotkeys should work now.

To install XWorkplace, I recommend using the latest WarpIN also.

See my home page for detailed information and download addresses:

WarpIN and XWorkplace are Netlabs projects, released under the GNU General Public Licence. The source code is available on the Netlabs CVS server. See www.netlabs.org/nosa and my home page for details.

We have created four mailing lists at www.egroups.com.

-- warpin-user
-- warpin-dev
-- xworkplace-user
-- xworkplace-dev

for WarpIn and XWorkplace users and developers, respectively.

We are grateful for feedback on these mailing lists.

Note: If you have linked to the above address of my home page, please update your links to point to xworkplace.netlabs.org and warpin.netlabs.org instead, because my home page will change in the near future.

Have fun!

PS: If you want to learn more about WPS programming, come to Warpstock Europe. I'll be doing a presentation about WPS and especially XWorkplace programming.
