For immediate release
SNAPIX SEL for LINUX (version 3.1.18)
- --------------------------------------
The new version of SNAPIX Special Edition for LINUX (SEL) is
available for free, for personal and commercial use.
SNAPIX is an interface and application generator which allows
you to use X11 and Motif libraries under Unix with ease.
SNAPIX significantly reduces the length of the development cycle
thanks to its easy to use, graphics editor which is synchronised
with the program text editor.
SNAPIX provides a true object oriented, event-driven language
(inheritance, polymorphism, instantiation, messages, etc).
Within only a few hours of getting to know SNAPIX you will be
able to start designing your first graphical applications.
SNAPIX SEL is supplied complete with statically linked Motif
libraries so no royalties are due to OSF.
Commercial versions of SNAPIX are available for SCO, Linux,
Lynx Os, Solaris (sparc), AIX, HPUX. - however,
in these cases, you must have a full commercial Motif license.
SNAPIX - a stable product
- ---------------------------
The first version of SNAPIX based on the syntax still in use today
was delivered in February 1990 (FCS). Since then SNAPIX has been
greatly enhanced with new properties, functions and objects and
ever-improving performances. SNAPIX is a mature, robust product,
well able to meet the requirements needed to build fast, friendly,
reliable applications.
How to get SNAPIX SEL ? via our web site.

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
More than 25,000 lines of source code and more than 2,000 system checks.
PegaSoft is pleased to announce the beta release of their new Linux
product, System Manager in a Box (SMiaB). Using artificial intelligence
techniques, SMiaB performs more than 2000 system checks and reports not
only which files have problems, but which systems are affected and why.
SMiaB runs on all major flavors of Linux, including Red Hat, S.u.S.E.
and Slackware. The program supports HTML and CGI,
and is completely expandable through simple plug-ins.
SMiaB 1.0, scheduled for release in late spring 1999, will include
business editions.
Your feedback is important to us. We encourage administrators and Linux
developers to submit their own SMiaB plug-ins. They install easily and
can be written in virtually any language you choose.
The beta is available for download from the PegaSoft home page at
http://www.vaxxine.com/pegasoft. More information is available from the
web site or by contacting Bettina Weichert at

biggest case of his life : find and kill Bernie Berkson, the most

Subject: SMSLink 0.34b - client/server SMS gateway
Date: Sun, 28 Feb 1999 22:15:10 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
The latest public release of SMSLink (version 0.34b) has just been
uploaded to MetaLab and www.styx.demon.co.uk. It is published under the
GNU GPL.
This program implements a client/server gateway to the SMS protocol (short
messages sent to GSM / mobile phones). The server process listens on a
specific TCP port, and forks a child for each incoming connection. Those
child processes are responsible for getting the message parameters from
the clients, and will then compete through a mechanism of semaphores and
shared memory segments to get exclusive access to the sending hardware : a
serially attached GSM module.
This new version implements a full-fledged access control list mechanism
and a new Solaris port of the client. See the Home Page or the CHANGELOG
file for more details.
Home page : <http://www.styx.demon.co.uk/smslink>.
Thanks,
Ph. A.
