Do you sense the comfort when working on eComStation PC? If no then
install additional smart widgets to eCenter panel!
NeoWPS widgets (in the bottom of the web-page)
- Beer Battery widget -- battery widget for notebooks and servers with UPS. Shows battery level, time remaining.
- Master Name widget -- it is useful for those who like to make screenshots of the desktop and keep the signature.
- Reactor Temperature widget -- If your eComStation PC is used in a bedroom or dusty office then you should control the temperature of CPU (it is proportional to the dust level).
btw, pay attention to other NeoWPS updates:

eCo Software is developing software since 1997.
1) The developers get all your bug-reports and keep them in wiki database.
This method works good during the 1-st year, doesn't work for long-term
projects. That's why we opened http://trac.ecomstation.ru
(Login: ecotrac, password: nhfrerth, select New ticket)
(Netlabs.org helped us to setup the tracker)
2) forum.ecomstation.ru is protected against spammers now
Most popular topics: Perfect eComStation, eSchemes, Kernel.

Pavel Shtemenko published the article
How to create own os2ldr
(russian language)
OS2LDR is much more than a loader for OS2KRNL.
It also incorporates
a library of about 50 call-back functions, known internally as "Dos
Helper" functions, which the kernel uses both during and after
initialization to talk to the PC hardware. This library, it seems,
is the beginning of an attempt to insulate the core functions of
the kernel-- task management, memory management, semaphore handling,
and so on-- from the "bare metal" of the PC architecture-- the knowledge
of which ports control which peripheral chips, how the BIOS data area is
laid out, and the like. To those of you who have read the book on OS/2 for
the PowerPC, this concept should start to sound familiar. Can you say "micro-kernel"?

Today we ware proud to announce EmperoarTV 2.0.
EmperoarTV 2.0 brings digital TV experience to the OS/2 and eComStation
platform. This includes high quality MPEG2 hard disk recording and
playback. With the appropiate hardware you can watch free-to-air digital
satellite (DVB-S) unencrypted digital cable (DVB-C) and terrestrial (DVB-T)
broadcasts. The latter can be done even on your notebook using an USB2.0
attached receiver.
If digital TV is not available at your location, just get an analog PVR
card. You can not only watch TV. Digitize your old VCR tapes to full
featured MPEG2 and create DVDs and enjoy.
For more information visit: Emperoar TV homepage
Note that this is a major update, which is not free for existing users.
However, an update pricing will be available.

eComStation developers work very well. The results of 2007 are impressive.
We are working like large corporation but use minimal resources.
Many OS/2 developers are still frozen. Some of them are waiting
for prepayment, other developers don't know what are the goals, what do users need.
Please indicate them new targets!
Users have posted a dozen of suggestions already ("Perfect eComStation" stack)
- For example, you can send a self-made screenshot of future eCS desktop with improved navigation means.
- Which new PM controls do you need?
- Which applications do you need? Draw fake picture of non-existing application for eComStation
- Which libraries (runtimes) should be included by default?
Attention, we should separate two threads of ideas: all basic functionality development plans are
collected in Evolutionary Sprint plan (minimal plan).
"Perfect eComStation" stack is used to collect revolutionary non-standard
ideas aimed to attract new users to eComStation (maximal plan).

eCo Software recommends to developers migrate to LANGE multi-language library. This is the optimal solution, much better than gettext, msg files, etc.
The library is used in many applications already!
Please a) care about translators, b) add multi-language support to your utility to make eComStation truly NLS-ready.

Use eComStation today, don't wait for miracles. Cycle of eComStation life:
a) users are investing into software/OS updates
b) The developers are generating applications and tools.
Gallery of screenshots,
Feel the power of eComStation NeoWPS desktop
- Upgrade eCo Software runtimes (March 3, 2008)
- NeoWPS includes original set of new eComStation icons. We replaced 1/3 of icons. Are you going to use eComStation in 2010? then you need fresh icons included to NeoWPS.
- Sunny icons -- huge fast transparent icons on your desktop (updated in February)
- Imagination -- preview in folders. Try improved version (v.3.10) (Check the runtime before installation)
- eSchemes is updated. eSchemes is a huge important project. It makes eCS useful for new (home/office) eComStation users. Whatsnew: STABLE eSchemes 1.46 version is released; Read the installation instructions in advance!
- Central Remote Control -- whatsnew: CRC utility: Talking clock (send us more voices)
- Personal cards manager -- it is aimed to keep *all your contacts* whatsnew: fixed hangs; new cards are compressed.
eCo Software is going include two useful applications to NeoWPS!

eComStation market is changing, new users need books and tutorials.
eCo Software support service invested several thousand euro into books preparation, today we offer (russian text):
- Frequently asked questions. eComStation installation.
- Frequently asked questions. eComStation usage and optimization.
(Photo) The books are aimed at users and companies which have many computers and should solve different problems in short time.
The books play important role in the development of eComStation market:
- we can advertise eComStation via book shops (it's impossible promote eCS via TV, there are banners in the Internet already)
- this increases the turnover of resellers (extends selection of goods - good addition to eCS box and electronic shareware soft)
The next step is to start delivery of books:
- Official guide to using eComStation
- Frequently asked questions. ACPI, JFS, Panorama VESA
