Version 2.1 of PMPrep now released !

PMPrep is a shareware uuencoder/uudecoder for the OS/2 Presentation Manager.
Multiple part files are supported as well as files which contain non-uuencoded
data such as mail-headers.

PMPrep lets you customize the uuencode/uudecode process to suite your
preferences.

PMPrep features an easy to use yet powerful drag'n drop user interface and
utilizes multiple threads for best multitasking performance. PMPrep works on
OS/2 version 2.1 and above.

To read the latest news regarding PMPrep please visit my WWW homepage at
http://users.informatik.fh-hamburg.de/~radlof_k. You can also view
screen-shots and the English version of the online manual on the WWW page.

You can download the shareware version of PMPrep from ftp.cdrom.com file
/os2/incoming/pmprp210.zip. This archive includes both, the English and the
German version. The archive will later be moved to /os2/archiver.

What's new in Version 2.1
- You can now suspend, resume and abort individual conversions via a popup
  menu. You display this popup menu with a right mouse click on the desired
  progress window.

- Enhanced drag'n drop functionality. If you want the directory of the left
  and right directory container to be the same, simply drag and drop the path
  name from one drive listbox to the other. The directory is changed
  automatically when you release the mouse button.

- You can change the path names of the default directories in the settings
  notebook in the same way.

- You can specify the default directory for the directory containers on the
  commandline. Additionally you can choose to always use the current working
  directory as the default directory.

- Memory consumption is reduced by 30%

- You can now change the priority of background processes used by PMPrep on
  the miscellaneous page of the settings notebook.

- The window size and -position is now saved and restored between each program
  start.
