SCOUG on Sept. 21st: Mesa and More
This will be an action-packed presentation. Sundial Systems has a lot to show
for themselves with their Relish time management products, Mesa 2 spreadsheet,
and Clearlook word processor. The primary focus at the September meeting will
be on Mesa 2.
Like all Sundial products, Mesa 2 was designed from the ground up for OS/2 to
really take advantage of the operating system. Features include
multi-threading, REXX scripting, Formula Inheritance and SmartFill, and that's
just the beginning.
Come see Mesa 2 in action and while you're there, glimpse the future with
several of Sundial's upcoming OpenDoc components. Program subject to change at
the whim of the audience.
SCOUG's special interest groups will meet after the main presentation:
General Interest Group - is still working on last month's topic. They'll be
off exploring informative OS/2 resources - such as the SCOUG Web site - on the
Internet.
Network - will continue the development of the SCOUG OS/2 WARP Server server.
Additional resources and user definitions will be added to the server using
the LAN Administrator GUI from a workstation. This will be a group
participation effort with everyone getting a chance to add themselves to SCOUG
domain. Using the workstation client, they will then run some applications
across their network including a client/server application that they will
install.
Programming - may look at a small practical REXX application and how it was
developed.
As has become a happy custom, hungry folks will gather for lunch - and more
OS/2 discussions - at the local Sizzler after the SIGs. And, on Sept. 23rd
at 7 PM, the [white]Internet SIG [cyan]will return to their project of
designing the optimal Web page for the SIG.
All SCOUG meetings are held on the second floor of the IBM facility in Costa
Mesa. From the 405 Freeway, exit at Bristol. Take Bristol North to Anton Blvd.
Turn right on Anton and travel for approximately 1/2 mile. The IBM building
is on your left at 600 Anton Blvd. It is recommended that you park in the
parking lot diagonal across the intersection of Avenue of the Arts and Anton
(South East corner).
All meetings are free and open to guests. The SCOUG General meeting is on the
third Saturday of the month. For more information please visit our web site
