Suntan Special version 0.60

Suntan Special for Developer's Tools edition

Overview

Suntan Special creates a well configured workstation or server by installing a sequence of fixes, patches, drivers and applications to your OS/2 or eComStation computer. Suntan Special also helps to keep your system up to date by downloading upgrades to your system and its applications.

Each fix, driver or application is installed by running the setup program. If possible, the setup program is run in unattended mode, otherwise instructions are provided as needed. Suntan Special can reboot the system as needed and continue running when the reboot is complete.

When you are satisfied with the sequence you have made to create the workstation or server you need, you can run it each time you need another server or workstation. If you run Suntan Special frequently, you can create a software repository on a shared hard drive and use Suntan Special to install applications from it.

Suntan Special is written in REXX. It comes with source code, so you may change the way an application is installed to suit your needs. As new applications or new versions of existing applications become available, you may download them from the Blonde Guy website and add them to your Suntan Special installation.

The Dev edition is written for developers on any platform. The Dev edition installs compilers and programmer tools useful for developers on the OS/2 and eComStation platforms.
