Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: Thinkpad On Screen Display utility, version 2


++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++

PMTPOSD version 2 has been released today

It is an On Screen Display utility for Thinkpads to be used on an OS/2 or
eComStation desktop, it shows:

 - Speaker volume setting and muting
 - LCD screen brightness setting
 - Monitor selection  VGA/LCD/DUAL

Start it using a program object in the startup folder or through a 'start'
command in your STARTUP.CMD

The dialog pops up when a related BIOS field changes, usually because the
user operates a Thinkpad key ... After 3 seconds without changes, the
popup goes away


It is an OPEN SOURCE program, sources and a makefile for Openwatcom are
included.

The program is partly based on the PMTPOSD.ZIP package by Serge Sterck
released with sources in 2003 and comments from other users over the last
few days :-)

This version fixes a shutdown hang and adds some new functionality like
monitor selection. It also displays all info in a single dialog now.
