Hello There!
Welcome to DaveWare.
What is DaveWare?
DaveWare is any little program that I happen to write because it's easier
to spend 14 hours writing it than it is to spend 4 hours on the phone
calling BBS's to see if there's one around that will do what I want to
do.
Below you'll find a list of the four utilities that I have done as of
late and a couple that are on the list to get done when I have the
time. If you see something there you'd like, or you have an interesting
idea for a useful utility (anything other than another Xtree clone) then
write me a note on a post card or give me a call at 408-363-1441.

PHBK 1.0 Written Oct 1990
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PHBK is a little address book program that is compatible with the data
files created by PC-Magazine's CARDFILE program. You can store 999
records instead of 256 and it's not a TSR, so it doesn't eat up valuable
memory.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHKPTH 1.0 Written Oct 1990
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHKPATH is a little utility to check along your PATH for the presence
of a file, or group of files.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EVAL 1.1 Written August 1990
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EVAL is a utility that evaluates given mathematical expressions and
returns the answer. Example: EVAL 2+3*(4+7)/2 would give an answer
of 18.5 by following the rule My Dear Aunt Sally.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3x5 Card Maker 1.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3x5 Card Maker is a little program that allows a user to design text
46 charactors across by 14 lines down, and then prints it out on a
form-fed 3x5 card on you Epson or compatible printer.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's in the works?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My current project is a journal program that let's a user type their most
secret thoughts and then encrypt them from prying eyes. Included will
be a calender and a reminder utility to remind you of important dates.
Also included will be a privacy switch that pops over a mini-text editor
with a default file for you to work on in case someone walks in and
interrupts you unexpectedly.
Also in the works is a desktop program. I will include PHBK, a calender,
a calculator, an appointment book, an editor, and a file organiser. I
know that everyone and their grandmother has written one, but I can't
find anything that I like and that has all of those features without
it either being a TSR, expensive, or unmanagable.
