Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: VisPro/REXX 3.1.1 now freeware

VisPro/REXX is a Visual Programming tool that is completely integrated with the Workplace Shell and offers multiple views, drag-drop interaction, popup menus, settings notebooks, direct editing, all CUA '91 features and supports the OS/2 Font and Color palettes.

As it was discussed some days ago in the OS2World forum, Dave Hock has authorized that his OS/2 software became freeware.  

Sadly the source code was lost, but now the VisPro/REXX software is available for download at hobbes.  

 

The original installer of VisPro/REXX 3.1 Gold (1996-11-22) is available:

A WarpIn installer with several VisPro/REXX patches had been created and called VisPro/REXX 3.1.1.  

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?key=VISPROREXX-3_1_1.wpi

 

The programs/patches included on this version are:  

 

 VisPro REXX v3.1 (1996-11-22)  

 BLDTEST.EXE patch (1997-02-24)  

 VPRSEDIT.EXE patch (1997-11-13)  

 VPFORM.DLL (1996-11-18)  

 VPDEBUG.EXE (2006-04-21)  

 VPREXX.DLL (2001-04-23)  

 Included VP_BOOK.INF and VP_MAN.PDF  

 

I will like to thanks Chuck McKinnis for providing the patches and creating the WarpIn installer.  

 

The software is now provided as freeware, "AS IS", without support from his original author.
