   ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++    
      
   From: jvwDESPAM@DESPAMdfsee.com   
      
   FYI, DFSee version 14 BETA available for evaluation     
      
   With the beta released today, it is possible to access VirtualBox disk images   
   (.VDI)   
   as a normal disk including partitions and filesystems, it allows you to COPY   
   any   
   individual files or whole directories from such images, using the BROWSE   
   functionality.   
   Browse is supported for the following filesystems: HPFS, JFS, NTFS, FAT(32),   
   ExFAT, EXT2/3/4     
      
   Even better, since WRITING to a VDI is supported too, you can even make changes   
   like creating partitions, setting a partition startable, change LVm info or   
   whatever writing is normally supported by DFSee, all without the need to start   
   a virtual machine ...     
      
   For a quick test, just start DFSee and use the menu:     
      
    File ->   
    Open a VDI (VBox) diskimage     
      
   Or, for example from an OS/2 commandline, to copy some files from a backup   
   image:     
      
    dfsos2 -d- vdi c:\vbox\diskimages\ecs22beta.vdi     
      
      
   Feel free to try out these new features, with the beta that can be downloaded   
   from:     
      
    http://www.dfsee.com/download/dfsee140.zip   
      
   For OS/2, you can also use the WARPIN installer:     
      
    http://www.dfsee.com/download/dfsee140_warpin.exe   
      
   And for Windows:     
      
    http://www.dfsee.com/download/dfsee140.msi   
      
   You can use those without a key, in evaluation mode.     
      
   However, if you planned to upgrade your DFSee registration anyway, there is NO   
   need   
   to wait for the official 14.x release, all registration keys issued after the   
   1st of october 2016 are valid for version 14!     
      
      
   Please have a go at the current functionality in the BETA, and let me know   
   what you think.   
   Just start DFSee as usual, then start browsing using the  key, or use the   
   various menu   
   items that give access to BROWSE.     
      
   Use the  key whenever you are unsure in any way, there is lots of context   
   aware HELP available explaining shortcut keys, menu items and dialogs. Also,   
   don't forget the single   
   line with help/description at the bottom of the screen!     
      
      
   Feedback highly appreciated!     
      
      
   Regards, JvW
