A new version of Banner for DECwindows V3 is now available. This kit will run only against DECwindows V3. The kit can be copied from :- FIZBUZ::FIZBUZ$DUA0:[SAUNDERS.DECW$BANNER]BANNER008.A Changes :- o Banner now saves resources in files who format is DECW$BANNER_nodename.DAT. Resource names all begin with DECW$BANNER_node.xxxxx as apposed to the original form of DECW$BANNER.xxxxxx. Therefor if you have already a SYS$LOGIN:DECW$BANNER.DAT or a SYS$LOGIN:DECW$BANNER_node.DAT you may care to rename it to the above format, and change all the resource names to the new format after upgrading to BANNER008. o Banner now creates a dedicated terminal for trapping broadcaste messages, which means that the message window can now be used no matter how you are running banner, or on which node in a cluster environment. o Most of the reported problems with the 006 kit have been fix. o Banners default mode is Borderless. This may be changed using the setup options, however this will result in Banner occupying a much larger portion of the available workstation screen space. In the borderless mode Banner windows can be moved by pressing MB3 and pulling the window to its desired possition. The new possitions will become the default startup possitions if the 'Save Settings' is then performed. If Banner window cover some other application windows, they can be forced to stay below all other windows, by using the restart window manager option, of the DECwindows V3 window manager. Known Problems :- o NI monitor is no longer operational, I hope to get the information to update the NI monitor, but until then it is out of service.
