Dear Donna,
Contributions time again, folks! Latest tidbits are:
1. BU.C, Version 1.02 - the previous version had a
nasty habit of failing to properly copy zero length
files and files that exactly filled the dynamically
allocated buffer used for copying. Now corrected.
2. FGREP.C, Version 1.05 - inconsistency of use between
-v and -c options corrected, and will now properly
compile under MS-DOS Microsoft and Lattice C
compilers.
3. FGREP.DOC - transcript of my article "Parallel
Pattern Matching and FGREP" in the September issue of
Dr. Dobb's Journal. Almost everything you would want
to know about the Aho-Corasick algorithm behind
"fgrep".
4. MORE.C - a CP/M version of MS-DOS's "more" utility.
Simple but useful.
5. SPLINE.C - UNIX has this fascinating filter that
takes numerical x-y co-ordinates and interpolates
- 1 -
between them to create data for a continuous,
mathematically smooth curve. Useful for 2-D graphics,
data plotting, numerically-controlled milling
machines. Great for roller coaster design! It is now
in the public domain.
6. SPLINE.DOC - for those fellow crazies who find
mathematics not only comprehensible, but almost as
much fun as programming. Explains the mathematical
theory of cubic splines.
7. PREP.C - I'm not quite sure who would find UNIX's
"prep" utility useful. For those that may, it also is
now in the public domain.
A question to be answered via the next newsletter: how small
is McPherson, anyway? (A straight and honest answer is not
expected.)
Yours truly,
Ian Ashdown, P.Eng.
