SEM Software is a growing collection of shareware software
products for the MS-DOS community. Prices are reasonable, and
quality is high, since all software is created by a fulltime
professional software engineer with a Chicago high-tech
consulting firm. Help to registered users is available through
Compuserve, GEnie, or mail. Orders and inquiries are normally
processed within 48 hours. Free trial copies of all software
may be obtained from Compuserve (IBMSIG), Public (Software)
Library of Houston, GEnie, and many systems around the country.
Unless noted otherwise, all programs operate under MS-DOS or
PC-DOS 2.1 and above, on IBM XTs, ATs, or compatibles, and will
work on MDA, Hercules, CGA, and EGA video cards.
FOR PRINTING AND TEXT PROCESSING:
***** SUPER PRINT *****
The ultimate in printing utilities, SUPER PRINT has
just about any printing feature which could be
desired. SUPER PRINT will print files with embedded
control characters, will slash zeros, add line
numbers, add left margin space for three-hole paper,
page number, print file time and date in heading, and
other stuff. Recent additions include page length
setting, top and bottom margins, wild card filenames,
prompted printing, printer configuration file,
adjustable tab expansion, and more! This is also one
of the few printing utilties which may be the target
of piped data from another program. Now, version 2.70
includes even more enhancements, including character
translation capabilities. The most software you can
get for only $10!
****** NEAT *****
This is a text formatting program similar to UNIX
nroff, except oriented to the PC user. Virtually any
printer can be supported with several different fonts
or ribbon options. This program also has file merging
features for creating form letters merged with address
lists, or other such uses.
FOR C LANGUAGE PROGRAMMERS:
***** STEVE'S TURBO-C LIBRARY *****
This expansion library for Borland's Turbo-C has over
130 functions and growing. Although Version 1.5 of TC
contains direct video access, "Steve's Library" was
the FIRST to contain a full library of direct video
text functions for this compiler. Many users say that
my functions are even better and easier to use than
Borland's. The library includes complete source code
in C and assembler, plus several useful header files.
Included are printer BIOS service routines for fast
printer access, and async communications functions,
directly accessing the serial ports for fast access
without buffering. Up to 9600 baud is possible!
Need to accept wildcard filenames on the command line?
My exparg() function re-arranges (argc, argv) to an
expanded array with all wildcards expanded to matching
filenames.
An installable interrupt handler for the 18.2 Hertz
interrupt is included so that simple real-time
applications can be programmed which will function
properly regardless of the type of system in use.
Functions for file opening from PATH and specified
environment variables make opening a file anywhere in
the environment totally transparent to the programmer.
And now, support is also included for the switch
inputs on the game port! This 4-bit port is very
handy for reading switches or other logic levels from
any outside device.
Full documentation suitable for printing and placing
in a binder is provided, along with a utility to
automate the printing.
To demonstrate various functions from STEVE'S LIBRARY,
six utilites with source code are included. The
utilities include:
GTOD - Reports time and date in many formats
TC - Compare two text files and report differences
WC - Count words, lines, characters, and checksums
files
OKISET - Configure an Okidata Printer or similar
IBM-type printer
INPATH - Locate an executable file in current PATH
DUMP - Unique hex dump program in COLOR, with optional
highlighted bytes.
***** STEVE'S ZORTECH C LIBRARY *****
This expansion library for Zortech C has over 100
functions. Much of "Steve's Library" for Turbo - C is
included, except the direct video (which Zortech
provides). However, "Steve's Library" provides much
of what Zortech forgot, like control-break and
critical error interrupt handlers, device type
interrogation functions, a game port handler, async
functions, direct printer functions, and more. All
functions have been optimized for Zortech.
FOR AMATEUR RADIO OPERATORS
***** CONLOG *****
This is the first in what will become a series of
contest logging programs for the Amateur Radio
Operator. CONLOG is intended for the annual November
Sweepstakes. This package is more than one program.
There is a logging program for use during the contest,
and two support programs to print the resulting
logsheets, summary, and duplicate check sheets. All
forms are printed with slick graphics (for IBM
compatible printers only), but can be also printed on
non-IBM printers without the graphics. The forms have
been approved by the ARRL for submission as valid
contest entries. Extra care has been taken to
preserve all log entries, even if there is a system or
power failure. The user can configure all video
attributes, plus name, QTH, rig, and section
information. This program is the result of various
programs written over the last seven years for the
Sweepstakes. No guarantees are made, but MY score has
increased by over 25% as a result of computer logging!
And the time saved in re-copying the logs (to make
them readable!) is incredible. My entry is usually
ready for mailing about 30 minutes after the contest
ends. All new contest rules are supported, including
the new West Texas section, and QRP power precedence.
Provisions are made to edit or delete log entries
during the contest, and the program absolutely will
not let you log a duplicate callsign! Log size is a
hefty 2500 entries to cover even you guys in the
COLorado section. Try it once, and throw away your
pencil! And when you work the contest, say hi to
WA9DRE when we work!
