Hiya all, something good to let you know.
Recently I found I lost my registration key for the excellent GPF REXX programming IDE for OS/2 (
https://ecsoft2.org/node/1322).
I decided to contact Jean-Baptiste Clerin, the developer, asking him to help me with this problem and after a few emails we agreed on this:
even if the product is no more of interest to him, he can't release it as open source because he would have to remove some cryptographic algorythm (didn't go too deep in details) and so some peculiar aspects of the program would be lost. Even so, he answered me he didn't have the time to work on it and also he got rid of his OS/2 environment, so open sourcing it was a no-no.
The solution? Creating a registration key for me and
a generic-user registration key for everyone of us who wants to try the software!
Here it is:
V 1.2 (Pro)
License To: OS/2 User
License Id: 45-78-40718
Key: 50C2-9096-0C04-89B4-20DB-B246-2F1F-49E1
I'm in the process of re-installing all my OS/2 important software on a new ArcaOS VM so I'll have to work a lot. I intend to fire it up ASAP to work on some OS/2 native software. In the meantime, feel free to use the generic key as you see fit.
