Date: April 13th 1996.
This is the official list of programs I released. They all should be
somewhere in the InterNet. Try SimTel (ftp.simtel.net) or Coast To
Coast Telecommunications (ftp.coast.net) or Garbo (garbo.uwasa.fi),
where they should be. The 'Compressed' field is the name of the
archive files, followed by an extension such as .ZIP (PKZip), .LZH
(LHA), or any compressor. The official release of these programs was
packed with version 2.13 of LHA, a great packer by Haruyasu Yoshizaki.
The 'xxx' represent the package version. For example, version 2.1 of a
program will be represented as 210. If the 'Requirements' field is left
blank, the program only needs a PC and DOS 2.0 or higher. All these
programs include abundant documentation. For all these programs that run
on the DOS command line, add -? or -h to display an help screen that will
show you available options.

programmers, and has a neat windowed interface. Softool
works with all text modes, even hi resolution Super VGA

the BIOS settings and installs the new buffer according to
the BIOS to ensure compatibility with the operating system
and other programs. One of the interests of this program is

from the DOS command line or a batch file, unlike the many
avalaible device drivers that do the same thing.
