296.5Still lostENTRE::LUWISHSat Jan 06 1990 20:565
    I know that this isn't (and shouldn't be) very high on your list of
    priorities, but the file is still lost after three weeks.  Is there a
    system operator-type available to restore a file from a backup set?

It's back now.    
296.7UIGen Version X2.0R2ME2::OBRYANWhen in doubt, let the user decide.Thu Mar 15 1990 02:1243
--- Announcing: Version X2.0 of the User Interface Generator (Final version) ---

      UIGen has been significantly revised (in fact, completely rewritten)
  for this final version.  It offers the following in the way of new features:

	1. UIGen is now an executable image, running on both VMS and Ultrix.

	2. UIGen now offers a more expressive input language, allowing you to
	specify the complete hierarchy of your interface in a simple manner.

	3. UIGen is an order of magnitude faster (than old UIGen), generating
	cleaner code which runs on VMS and both versions of Ultrix.  (Yes, a
	functional Makefile is also generated.)

I. Files
--------
      The generic UIGen files are located in the CLT::WIDGET$KITS:[UIGLTRANS],
  including some generic (necessary) source code (for all platforms) as well
  as documentation and procedures.  ("UIGLtrans" stands for UIGen Language
  translator.)  Below this top level directory are the following subdirectories:
	[uigltrans.VMS] - VMS executable (and any VMS related files)
	[uigltrans.ULTRIX] - Ultrix executables (and any Ultrix related files)
	[uigltrans.EXAMPLES] - example application UIGen input files.
	[uigltrans.WIDGETS] - generic "user_defined" widget source files
	[uigltrans.widgets.VMS] - VMS-specific "user_defined" widget files
	[uigltrans.widgets.ULTRIX] - ULTRIX-specific "user_defined" widget files

      For VMS, a convenience procedure [UIGLTRANS]UIGLTRANS_COPY.COM is provided
  to copy the appropriate files to your machine and create the necessary
  subdirectories (UIGLTRANS_COPY.COM should be invoked in an empty directory.)
  Similarly, there is an (untested) Ultrix shell script uigltrans_copy.csh
  intended to accomplish the same ends on Ultrix machines.
      The new user guide (UIGL-PROG.PS) is available.  It is not complete, but
  should be sufficient as an introduction.  The uigltrans exe itself provides
  help via the "-h" and "-t" qualifiers, and the provided examples should
  fill in the gaps.

A more complete announcement is available in
	CLT::WIDGET$KITS:[uigltrans]UIGLTRANS_ANNOUNCE.MMO
and the notes file is:
