Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2008 21:14:08 -0400 From: madodel Subject: [VOICENWS] SW: Pronews/2 v1.60 cp125 now available ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: Trevor Hemsley I'm pleased to announce the release of Pronews/2 v1.60 Pronews/2 is a multithreaded NNTP Newsreader program for OS/2. If you are upgrading from any Pronews/2 release prior to 1.59 you are strongly advised to make a backup copy of the file \pronews\toolbar.ini as this release changes the on-disk format of this file. You will not be able to run a previous release of Pronews/2 unless you restore an old copy of this file. If you are upgrading from a release prior to 1.54 then you are strongly urged to backup your existing filter files as the files have a different on-disk format from 1.54 onwards. Failure to backup files *.FLT in \pronews and \pronews\headers will mean it will be impossible to use your filters if you should need to revert to a release prior to 1.54. You should also read the readme.txt file installed in the \pronews directory as this covers changes and new features from prior releases as well as tips for making Pronews/2 quicker. You can find Pronews/2 1.60 on ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming (later to be ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/apps/internet/news/reader) as pn2v160.zip. Hobbes search: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/cgi-bin/h-search?key=pn2v160.zip Pronews/2 is shareware and all profits from its sale are donated to the charity Save the Children. Pronews/2 v1.60 is a relatively small update with a few bugs fixed. There are no new features in this release. A list of the fixes is available in your \pronews directory after install in the file fixed.txt. More information about all changes and installation instructions can be found in the readme file after (or during) the install.
