ani files are animated mouse cursors (from memory)

PS, should be usable under Warp, eCom or Arca.

Hi Dave,

Perhaps Martin should split this topic off to its own thread as well.

Done :)

Welcome to the forums David.
I used Kermit quite a lot back in my DEC days back in the 80's and 90's. Certainly owe it a lot for making my life easy back then.

Hardware / Re: Some successful installs with ArcaOS 5.0

Not everyone has the latest release, some people also like to use older releases for whatever reasons. Any information in relation to a particular release may help someone else out in future, and the information, even if not used, is always welcome as it may aid in a problem that has flown under the radar for current releases. If the information is not shared, then it certainly will never be of help.

Arca Noae is modernizing OS/2 Warp for 21st century PCs
Lewis Rosenthal talks about why some companies still need to run OS/2 today – including on UEFI and GPT hardware

The last page is blank here apart from the disclaimer.

I am seeing some weird things with PDF files, trying not to be paranoid, but they work fine under Windows but I cant see parts of them when viewed under Linux.

What ever transactions anyone wishes to make with Eugene and friends is not the issue, that is between two entities and it is up to the entities to keep in mind any restrictions etc, and what they do about them. I do not have any issues with Russian or Ukrainian citizens as a whole, it is unfortunate that people are caught up in the actions of governments.

os2world.com is a public forum for those in the OS/2, eCS, Arca, communities, it accepts people from all countries that wish to take part, including in off topic areas but politics, religion, government issues, and anything that could be deemed as illegal (no matter personal opinion), should be left outside these forums.

My point is to leave politics out of it - as much as I too would like to comment on some aspects, I leave it outside os2world.com.

Hi Eugene,

Your post comes across as political, and illegal. I have reworded it.

Hi Paul,

Drove to Melbourne from Perth mid January, drove back to Perth with a week in Kalgoorlie early August with my dog in the back seat, due to ageing family members I think I will be staying in Perth for a couple more years.

Looking forward to getting my server out of storage and back on the internet, never did get SFTP/wget etc working to update the public website, will look at networking my server to Linux and update it that way. Maybe even put the server on VirtualBox and use the shared directory option. I stopped updating my servers version of os2site.com late last november when I sold my house but have kept a basic structure on my Linux laptop to put updates in that can be transfered to os2site.com later.

Glad os2site.com is helpful to others :)

I'm hoping that I will have a house to move into in the coming months, then I can unpack my stuff in storage and start using OS/2 again and be a bit more helpful :)
Either that or I'm going to start driving around Australia again!

Hi Ben,

You will have to ask Arca Noae.
Any other method is open to .......

Going to be my dogs turn soon I think. He's 17, reasonably blind and deaf now but still enjoys his walks though arthritis is creeping in now.
They are worth it, giving more companionship and joy than the sadness at the end, I would never be without them.
