Hi All,

A number of updates have been made at http://smedley.info/os2ports over the 
past week or so - some of these have made it onto some news pages, others 
have gone unreported.

The changes are:
- 20060803 - OpenTTD port added
- 20060729 - Apache2 updated to v2.2.3
- 20060729 - lbreakout2 updated to v2.6beta6 and to use sdl12.dll
- 20060729 - Enigma updated to use sdl12.dll
- 20060729 - Tuxpaint updated to use sdl12.dll
- 20060729 - Rocks'n'Diamonds updated to v3.2.0
- 20060728 - LyX port updated to beta 2
- 20060728 - The Battle for Wesnoth updated to v1.1.8

Some of these are just recompiles of old ports to bring them to latest SDL, 
however OpenTTD and LyX are new ports.

OpenTTD is a clone of the Microprose game "Transport Tycoon Deluxe", a 
popular game originally written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the 
original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features.

LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on 
the structure of your documents, not their appearance. It is released under 
a Free Software / Open Source license.

LyX is for people that write and want their writing to look great, right 
out of the box. No more endless tinkering with formatting details, 'finger 
painting' font attributes or futzing around with page boundaries. You just 
write. In the background, Prof. Knuth's legendary TeX typesetting engine 
makes you look good.


Cheers,

Paul.
