---------------------------------
2183 Modula-2, Forth, and Fortran Small Programs Disk
---------------------------------
2183 Modula-2
-------------
Calendar 1.0 (CAL)
Kaya, Raymond T.
$0
is the Modula-2 source code (and exectuable) for a simple, stand-alone,
non-memory resident calendar that will let you page through a month at a time.
2183 Forth
----------
4TH.Hlp
Spurill, Giles
$0
is a text file explaining what Forth language is, what the advantages of
programming with Forth are, and other useful information concerning the use
of Forth.
2183 Fortran
------------
Calndr
?
$0
is Fortran 5.0 date routines which include day-of-year, day-of-week, Julian day
and date of Easter. Inverses for Julian day and day-of-year are included also.
ClpFor
Hensied, Jobst
$0
is code for a Clipper-Fortran interface.
FIOLib
Cook, David
$0
is a set of routines for reading a Microsoft Fortran unformatted file.
FMT 1.3
Dallal, Gerard E.
$12
takes the drudgery out of writing FORTRAN FORMAT statements. The program causes
ASCII 250s and 255s (PC-Write's soft and hard spaces) to be treated as blanks.
Long formats are split properly when break does not occur within a character
string.
ForDoc 1.1
Tucker, Ken
$25-$30
produces symbol tables from the Fortran source code suitable for inclusion in
the source as comments or inclusion in documentation.
Peekpo
Hamilton, Kenneth G.
$0
provides examples on how to read and write directly to memory using both
Microsoft and Lahey compilers, using only Fortran, and no Assembler.
2183 APL
--------
APL Tools (APLTOOL)
Church, Davin
$0
is a collection of APL*PLUS/PC tools.
2183 Windows
------------
Btrieve Utility for Windows 5.10 (BTUTILW)
Amisys Incorporated
$25-$70
is for users or programmers of Btrieve databases looking for a friendly Windows
interface to investigate and debug Btrieve files. This utility will work with
any Btrieve file regardless of whether the file was written for DOS, networks or
Windows. It must be run from Windows v3.0 in 386 Enhanced Mode.
ExeDump 1.00
Munk, Claus
$0
is a bound utility for extracting resources (eg: cursors, icons and fonts) from
Windows and Presentation Manager EXE files.
HyperLink 1.2 (HYPRLNK)
Stewart, Bill & MacDonald, Ian
$0
helps Windows 3 programmers access the Windows' on-line SDK help information
by providing a hotkey link from your source code to the relevant parts of the
on-line SDK help.
Paint2
is a text file that defines the layout of the MSWindows Paint file format.
PWBCLP
Goulet, Steve
$0
is an extension for the Programmer's Workbench. The Workbench is a programmers
editor supplied by Microsoft with some of their latest compilers. Although the
Workbench has its own clipboard and associated function, they are not very
useful at moving data to and from other applications if you are running under
DOS. If you run the Workbench in a virtual machine under Windows 3.0 in
enhanced mode, this extension allows you to cut and paste date to and from the
WINDOWS clipboard.
VerReg
Dragons Eye Software
$0
lets you add registration information to programs without recompiling. (This is
a Windows application).

END OF SMALL PROGRAMS DISK #2183
--------------------------------
ADA-TUTR 2.02
Herro, John J.
$25
#7244/1338
is designed to make you an excellent Ada programmer in minimum time. You'll
learn good Ada program design techniques, not just Ada syntax. An Ada
compiler is helpful, but not required. A hard disk or high-capacity disk of
some type is required as the files un-ARC to over 600k.
Augusta
#7244/691
is a subset of the US Department of Defense computer language Ada. It was
devised by Edward Mitchell and the original Augusta compiler was written in
generic Microsoft BASIC. Jim Castleberry has translated the BASIC source code
for the compiler into Turbo Pascal. We feel like this program would be of
more interest to the student of programming languages than to the general
programming public trying to get an application cranked out.
Beginning Ada Tutorial
Coronado Enterprises
$40
#7705/4108 [4 disks]
is a comprehensive introduction to the Ada programming language Ada was created
by the U. S. Department of Defense for use in embedded programming applications.
Also included in this Mega Disk set is the Advanced Ada Tutorial 2.0 ($40). It
covers exception handling, tasking, generic units, advanced topics in the use of
records and arrays, and low level machine features.
ANSI-Standard Cobol
Noweck, Robert E.
$25
#3177
is a Cobol compiler complete with tutorial. Source is included.
Frank Lapalombella, Charlotte, NC: "When I run Cobol and enter a program name to
compile, nothing happens. I hit Esc and it exits back to DOS."
PsL: After you enter the program name, it appears that nothing happens, but the
program is, indeed, being compiled. After a minute or two, the compiler will
finish and automatically exit to DOS. You can then link the OBJ file as
instructed in the documentation to get an executable file to run.
The Link program normally comes on your DOS disks and is not included with this
program. If you cannot find Link, contact your computer dealer.
dBTalk 1.01 [DBTALK] 09-93 CD
Olajide, Dele
$0
#20242 [2 disks]
is an Object-Oriented Development tool for developing GUI based
applications machines with VGA graphics. It provides tools to design
screens, icons, fonts, bitmap, vector graphics objects and other
resources. It uses a memory scalable run-time engine which interprets
Clipper code blocks.
It provides a resource compiler which converts source code into code
blocks and combines the array of code blocks, a run-time engine and all
other resources into an EXE file for execu- tion. It has built-in
classes for supporting DBF, Lotus 1-2-3 WK1, and WordPerfect files.
Sample application is included.
Formline
Munn, Ian W.
$25
#3384
is an easy to use COBOL program generator. It is set up to generate code for the
MS COBOL 2 compiler, but can be easily adjusted for used with COBOL 3. A hard
disk is required.
GPSA 2.12
COBOL Maintenance Technologies ASP
$495
#20102 [3 disks]
is a system analysis and documentation package designed to support everyday
COBOL maintenance activities, such as impact analysis, system understanding,
documentation, quality assurance, and source code evolution.
HyperPAD
Brightbill-Roberts & Co., Ltd ASP
$99
#7532/3484 [5 disks]
is a cross between an object-oriented programming language and an operating
environment. It is roughly similar to HyperCard on the Mac. You can create
a wide variety of applications with HyperPAD simply by combining predefined
"objects" (pushbuttons, fields, pages, etc) with English-based instructions
that tell the system what to do in response to various actions the user may
take, such as pressing a button.
Even if you do not want to learn the relatively small amount of programming
required to create your own applications with HyperPAD, you should see the
variety of prewritten applications that come with it: phone book, phone
dialer, message taker, call tracking, project management, notebook,
calculators, expense log, letter writer, daily planner, index card database,
label printer, computer configuration analysis, games, and more.
HyperPAD has been a retail-only product for some time, and you can still buy
the registered version of this program at your local retail software store or
from PsL - in fact, if you get the shareware disks from PsL and later order
the registered version from us, we will credit the cost of the shareware
version against the registration price. Also, while other shareware
distributors will be charging up to $25 (or more) for this 5-disk shareware
set, PsL's MegaDisk price for the set is our usual $6.99. (The authors
