 SCOUG Presents:  Open Watcom To Accelerate OS/2 Development


The Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) proudly presents one of
the Open Watcom team members at its Saturday June 15 meeting. 

"We are thrilled, absolutely thrilled to have an Open Watcom core
developer and team partner come and speak to us" says Steven Levine, SCOUG
Programming SIG Leader.  "The new Open Watcom compiler is arguably the
best tool available for creating robust future-generation OS/2 software. 
It's free and it's open source.  Open Watcom breathes new life into OS/2
development." 

The Open Watcom representative will cover OS/2 development, porting
software from other platforms including from Windows and Linux, developing
custom DLLs, available libraries of existing functions and subroutines,
templates, linking modules together, the various files that programmers
must create when developing large projects, writing "make" files and how
to convert them from other systems, available GUI and graphics routines,
writing cross-platform code, the development environment, and where to get
manuals, source code and online help. 

  "Open Watcom is an outstanding way to write OS/2 programs" says SCOUG
member Harry Chris Motin, author of

               Open Watcom - Getting Started
   (http://www.scoug.com/os24u/2002/scoug204.watcom.html)

"I've already written several programs with it.  It's fast, it's accurate
and it shows off the power that we all expect from OS/2.  I look forward
to meeting one of the developers from Open Watcom!" 

  A free CD containing Open Watcom will be distributed to all attendees.

Do not miss this very special presentation by one of the Open Watcom team
members.  Saturday June 15 at 9:15 a.m.
