ECS_WGTS_PKG_1.WPI

This Warpin program has been put together to aid
eComstation users in installing and uninstalling widgets for
eCenter. Do not try to install these widgets to XWorplace
since eCS installs it's Enhanced Workplace files in different
locations on your hard drive than XWorplace.

You will need Warpin, the new general-purpose installer for
both eComStation and OS/2.  It can be downloaded from

http://www.xworkplace.org/

If you need a specific widget, you may want to check out

http://www.os2usr.org/xcenter/

IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER:

After any new widget(s) is installed to the eCenter, eCenter must be
closed and restarted for the new widgets to be recognized.

You MUST install the spacer widget for the remaining packages
to install correctly.  The widget folders are created when this
package is installed.

Do NOT de-install the spacer widget unless you plan on de-installing
all the widget packages.  If you do plan on de-installing all the 
widget packages, de-install all the widget packages except for the
spacer widget.  Only after you have de-installed the other widget
packages can you safely de-install the spacer widget without
creating a bunch of error messages in Warpin.

If using the trashcan in eCS's enhanced WPS, delete its contents
before installing the packages.  If you had deleted the entire package
before without emptying the trashcan and want to re-install, 
the packages will be installed to the Widget folders located in
the trashcan.

I highly recommend that you install one of the REXX gauge widgets
from the Widgets Scripts folder.  Install any with the *.wgt 
extension.  I have found that if the WPS crashes, there is a good
chance the REXXUtil function is no longer installed and some
widgets on the eCenter will start posting REXX error messages
when selected.  I have now modified the *.wgt scripts to check
for the REXXUtil function and if not found install it.

I did not include the installation of Herwig Bauernfeind's
Show Desktop Object with his other widgets.  I kept getting
error messages when trying to use it.  If you have a problem 
running his Run, Lock, and Find widgets, try running checkini.exe
found in the WPTools program which can be downloaded from

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/system/wptool32.zip

As always, back up your WPS before installing.  Using the 
built in archive feature of eComStation is a good way of 
doing this.

I did not write the any of the widgets, so don't write me if
you don't like one or are having a problem with one.  I just
put the widgets together in one package to make it easier on 
the eCS user to install and de-install using Ulrich Mller's
Warpin installer.

ECS_WGTS_PKG_1.WPI
contains several widgets packages.  it includes Martin Lafaix's
Widget Library which contains:

1.   The Spacer Widget

2.   The REXX Button Widget

10.  Herwig Bauernfeind's Find, Run, and Lockup

11.  XUpTime, a Rexx Script applied to a Rexx Gauge
     to monitor PC uptime

12.  StopWatch, a rexx script applied to a Rexx Gauge
     giving one a stopwatch similar to the WarpCenter
     stopwatch.
