File contains a .DLL and docs to add neat new looks to your own programs. Author also markets a Tool-Bar DLL and status bar DLL. Nice. 3DBUTTON.ZIP 3DBUTTON is provided as freeware by Mark Douglas. I can be reached on Compuserve via mail address 71641,2155 or by phone, 415-506-3212. 3DBUTTON is a set of functions that make it easy to create buttons that display a bitmap or icon in the face of your buttons, instead of text. 3DBUTTON draws your button in pushed and non-pushed states eliminating the need to have two versions of a bitmap or icon for each button. One bitmap or icon is used for displaying your button in both states. 3DICON.ZIP 60 more editable icons. This archive file contains a group of 3D icons with a button-like appearance to replace the rather bland icons in the Windows Main and Accessory groups. Some extra icons are also included. 4SHELL.ZIP [$20.00] 4 Shell, the Windows Shell for 4Print and 4Book by ZPay Payroll Systems. Allows proper operation of these printing utilities from within the Windows environment. 4WIN110.ZIP [$20.00] 4WIN, the command line interface for Windows by Terratech. 7-91 4WIN is Windows application that is a replacement for COMMAND.COM. 5IN1.ZIP [Free] FiveInOne [100012,634] 4-91 is a modest Windows 3.0 set of utilities. It gives you 5 options: 5in1 could be substituted for Progman.exe as primary shell. 5in1 gives you information about your current Windows 3.0 mode Real, Standard or Enhanced in the Title Bar. It gives you also the amount of Free Available Memory. 5in1 includes a small shell from which you can easily run other Windows or Dos applications. 5in1 will flash when receiving a WM_COMPACTING message from the Windows 3.0 kernel. This message is sent to all top-level windows when Windows detects that more than 12.5 percent of system time over a 30- to 60- second interval is being spent compacting memory. This indicates that system memory is low. When an application receives this message, it should free as much memory as possible, taking into account the current level of activity of the application and the total number of applications running in Windows. ABOUT.ZIP Bouncing Command Button - by Lou Marino [70322,1473] Modify this program -- please..... This is just a little hack I wrote just for the hell of it. The Command button is calculated to stay inside the boundaries of the About window no matter the size of the button or the window. Resize both if you do not believe me..... ACCE01.ZIP Accesses by T. F. Wall [73747,1563] Accesses does everything I could think of to help you access, run, and place your programs where you want them to be. Accesses can even do this from most other programs!!!! If you think of something that Accesses should access and don't know how to do it, call me. Accesses probably can do it now, if you knew how. PS, if you like Accesses, please register it. The latest version of ACCESSES and ARCHIVES can be found on the CompuServe WINADV forum. ACCLIT21.ZIP [$10.00] Accessory Mate allows access to all of the Microsoft Windows programs that were shipped with Windows. You can now Launch these programs from a single Icon, instead of a slew of Icons cluttering and hogging your Valuable Desktop space. Besides it's alot easier to find the program from a single Icon rather than hunting through the slew that Windows came with. Also, you will see a great speed improvement when programs are launched from Accessory Mate. ACHART11.ZIP ASCII Chart 1.1 by Dave Lord Displays ASCII table in a window. ACTORMDI.ZIP Actor program source for multiple document interface. ADDITM.ZIP Visual Basic routine to access .INI files. ADDRSB.ZIP [$10.00] Professional's Address Book by Dane Basch.

There are also fields for recording when you last saw a person, his/her company and position in the company, his/her marital status and family, his/her affiliations with organizations, groups, etc., and even a field to record birthdays and gift ideas. So you see, this can be used by the professional for contact management on a simple scale, or for personal use on a higher scale than many address books. ADG_1-3.ZIP (also ADG_4-6.ZIP and ADG_7-8.ZIP) Sample apps from the book "Windows 3.0: A Developer's Guide" by Jeffrey M. Richter on M&T Books.

ADIALE.ZIP [Free] Dialer by George Lamson [73760,2135.] This is a simple phone dialing program I wrote as my first VB project. Its use is pretty straight forward. It is necessary to configure the com port before a number can be dialed. The program will default to use Com2 so it is not necessary to configure the port if Com2 will be used. Names can be entered in and stored in the list box. A number can also be entered directly into the entry text box. When a number has been selected or entered it will be dialed when the Dial button is pressed. When the dialog box appears, the phone should be picked up and the enter key pressed to disconnect the modem and engage the phone line. The ReDial button will redial the last number called. If a prefix for long distance or and outside line is needed, it can be entered in the Prefix text box and toggled usind the check box. This program is completely freeware and I've included the source code to show the "simple" API calls necessary for com port access and dialing with a modem. AFORCE.ZIP Alien Force by Robert Epps.

APLAUNCH.ZIP Application Launcher for Windows by Robert Fabian Provide a list oriented alternative for the desktop populated with icons. An important part of my motivation was to explore what is possible in Visual Basic. The result is a reasonably convenient means of launching Windows 3.0 applications by selecting from a list, where facilities are provided to maintain the list. The list of applications may be increased by pressing Add. You will then be able to add any exe, com, bat, or pif file, together with an appropriate description. Highlighted list elements can be removed by pressing Delete. Execution of the file linked to a description happens by either double clicking on the list element or by pressing the Execute button with an element highlighted. APOR14C .ZIP [$54.00] Aporia by NewTools, Inc Object oriented extensions to the Windows desktop. This is a powerful instrument that can be used to provide "drag and drop" capabilities to Windows. Get into the "Windows of the Future." Make your own tools and display them in a "desktop" metaphor. Basic tools include those for storage, file and tool management, directory management, customization, window control, notekeeping and online help, all user configurable. Aporia is a program which provides you with a more convenient, flexible interface for Microsoft Windows. It makes Windows easier to use by adding a fully graphical, object-oriented user interface which lets you customize your working environment. It gives you a better way to organize your work by allowing you to display graphically your programs and data files. Aporia also has the ability to train your programs to run the same way each time for a given situation; thus, allowing you to work more efficiently. The heart of Aporia is the concept of tools. A tool in Aporia refers to both the icon that represents the tool and the object that you attach to the tool. That object can be any file on your disk drives, including programs and data files. You can arrange tools on the screen as you like, so your commonly used programs and files are always immediately available. Programs can be run by pointing the mouse cursor over a program's tool and double clicking the mouse button or by using the mouse to drag a tool for a data file onto the program's tool. Very nice product! Recommended. (CW) APPBAR.ZIP App Bar Launcher version 3.141 by NEVERnever Software A half year ago I saw AppDock, a NeXT alike buttonbar for Windows. I liked it, but some disadvantages made me not to use it. It was Shareware and made with VisualBasic. (so I had to place the vbrun100.dll on my small harddisk)., and because I thought I could do it better. How? Appbar does basically the same as AppDock. It starts and (that's different) closes programs selected from the iconbar. By clicking with the left mouse button you start programs if they're not started at that moment, or you close programs if they run at that moment. That's all. Almost. The top button provides some systemoptions as about, move and exit. The second button provides a inboard "Exit Windows" option. APPDOCK3.ZIP {$10.00] Application Dock 3.0 David R. Black A collection of icons that sits along the right side of your screen to provide quick access to many of your programs. This icon bar, if you will, stays visible all of the time, and simply clicking on the bar brings it to the top, where you can double-click on an icon to bring up the program associated with it. Written in Visual Basic, this program was inspired by a much simpler version by John Morley. This program is an attempt to bring some features of the excellent Workspace Manager on the NeXT computer to Windows 3.0. APPSHL.ZIP [Free] App Shell 1.0 by Jim Presley [73417,2674] Template for File-oriented Applications Provides base for Visual basic applications. Some source code is included. A mini-text editor (multi-line text control) is used to demonstrate all file-oriented functions found in a standard Windows application. Windows Write was used as a model with improvements made where it seemed to make sense. The file open/save as dialogs adhere to the Windows 3.0 conventions. Printer setup and printing is allowed from any printer currently attached. The user is allowed to cancel the printing from a modal dialog box. In addition to providing a base for Visual Basic applications, App Shell also demonstrates many VB functions. This includes a custom Windows DLL for printer setup. The C source is included. 8-91 ARACHNID.ZIP Card game like Solitare, only more. ARC13P.ZIP [Free] Architect Font by Hank Gillette [73627,3612] ATM Type 1 font installs easily for all Windows apps. ARCH_TB.ZIP Archery game for ToolBook by Mike Miller. ToolBook archery is a game wherein players move the target with a mouse, compensating for random wind conditions. When the player feels comfortable with the target's position, he fires the arrow. The secret to doing well is figuring out the effect that the wind will have on the travelling arrow. The target's default position will yield a perfect bullseye when there is no wind. The game is currently equipped to handle 1 to 4 players at a time, if someone desires more players all they need to do is create a new page, name it "Player " (e.g. a page for a fifth player would need to be named "Player 5" and so on), and then save the book and reopen it (needed to reinitialize variables and set up new pages). I have not documented this "feature" in the book itself, but the code will support any number of players as long as all pages are properly named and on the same background. ARUN10.ZIP [$5.00] Autorun 1.0 by Daniel Lee Kelly II Simplifies the setting and changing of the programs that automatically execute upon booting Windows, AUTORUN will automatically run all programs in the group named "Autorun". AS22P.ZIP Art Show 2.2 is a Windows application to display "shows" of your favorite wallpaper files.

Art Show can display Windows color bitmaps (*.BMP File) with 16 or 256 color palettes, or gray scale palettes with up to 256 shades. It does not support 24 bit color bitmaps. It has been tested at VGA, 800x600 and and 1024x768 resolutions on a ProDesigner II video card. ASCEND1.ZIP PIM for Windows. 60 day trial period. Iconic, MDI support. NICE! AT13.ZIP Application Timer Run programs programs at a specified time, or on regular intervals. It can be used to automate backups, asynchronous communications, CPU intensive calculations, etc. It is an easy program to use.

BBVIEW.ZIP [Free] Windows image file viewer 1.2 by Bailey Brown, Jr. [73020,3442] This is rlease 1.2 of my Windows image file viewer. This version contains bug fixes over 1.11 and adds the capability to use a full 256 colors (full palette) when a 256 color windows driver is used. It will read windows bitmap files (.BMP, .DIB, .RLE) and GIF files. It can be used to convert GIF files to windows wallpaper by saving the .GIF as a .BMP file. You can also copy the image and paste it into other Windows applications. Now you can load an image in any format (such as PCX) that your windows paint program supports into your windows paint program and copy it and paste it into BBView. Remember to paste the palette also (see menu). You can then save it in the GIF format. BBView saves each image it loads from a file in discardable memory. This means if you want to see an image you've already loaded, you don't have to wait for it to be decoded again. If the system gets really low on memory, it will discard these images and BBView will have to load them again. BBView discards them automatically when you quit from it. This version, 1.2, is FREE. BCKDSK23.ZIP BigDesk and BackMenu 2.3 by SP Services/Ian Heath Creates custom menu that rests on the desktop. 7-91 One of the best things about Windows is that you can run several programs at once. The only real problem with this is that the screen gets awfully cluttered. BigDesk is the answer to this problem, and we think you're going to like it once you get the idea. Imagine that you had nine monitors attached to your computer, all hidden behind a wall. Imagine a one-screen-sized hole in the wall. Now imagine that you can move the hole to look at any of the screens or even at parts of several of them. That's the thing BigDesk is going to give you. In order to use Bigdesk to the full you will probably also need a copy of BackMenu, to provide you with a pop-up program menu on each of these 'virtual' screens. BCURSOR.ZIP Big Cursor Ver 2.0 by James F. Cuddy Makes pointer (cursor) extra large - good for laptops and LCD displays. BEAT.ZIP Heartbeat module for After Dark screen saver. With sound!

BITMAN.ZIP [$20.00] Bimap Manager by Patrick Deupree [76427,442] 5-91 Manage those graphic files with this handy utility. You can scan through an .EXE or .DLL file and view all bitmaps present. By using the right arrow button, the next bitmap will be displayed and by using the left arrow button the previous bitmap can be brought back and displayed. Files with the .DLL extension, and even the .DRV extension can also be read by the BitMan program. To see a list of files with either of these extensions merely click the mouse in the edit control at the top of the file selection dialog and replace the .EXE text with .DLL, .DRV, or whatever text is desired. There are other files with non-standard extensions that are readable by BitMan. Key information on each bitmap will be displayed as it is viewed. This information includes the following: Name of bitmap in the resource file Dimension of bitmap (in pixels) Number of colors in bitmaps color palatte BITMAP.ZIP by Ted Young [76703,4343] Experiments with Bitmaps, hDCs, Images, Pictures, and AutoRedraw ---------------------------------------------------------------- I gave up trying to write a dozen different sample programs to figure out what's going on with VB, AutoRedraw, hDC and the Windows GDI. So, I wrote a program (actually drew a form, the code was no big deal) which exercises pretty much all of the graphics methods in terms of refreshing, cls, pset/line, etc., along with the GDI stuff like BitBlt, and the GDI line drawing (MoveTo, LineTo, SetPixel, etc.). BJWIN.ZIP [$40.00] BlackJack game for Windows by John Washburn 2-91 BKGFADE.ZIP Background Fader by Craig Fitzgerald This program is for Windows users who have limited memory and/or think faded colors look nice as a background. This program will display a color fade as your Windows background. A color fade means that the color gradually changes from one side to another in a smooth fashion.

Please refer to Help after invoking Block Breaker. BLITFIX.ZIP BlitFix is a Windows utility that speeds up windowing on large (1024x768) displays by forcing the CS_BYTEALIGNCLIENT bit on for all top windows. BlitFix sets all top level windows' CS_BYTEALIGNCLIENT bits, which means moving around windows on large non-coprocessed displays is faster. BlitFix should work automatically, but you can force it to go to work with a right-mouse-button click or keypress on its icon. Some software already sets the CS_BYTEALIGNCLIENT bit, so it won't speed up. Displays smaller than 800x600 usually don't speed up very much. 256 color displays don't speed up at all.

BS100.ZIP BATTLEGRID by Bob Dolan Version 1.00 BattleGrid is a game of strategy between two players to locate ships placed on a grid by the opposing player. It is very similar to a classic board game with a similar name. Among the many differences in this version is the fact that the computer can play one or both sides of the contest. In addition, there are no playing pieces to lose! The capabilities of Microsoft Windows are fully exploited with the intention of providing an efficient player's interface.

The core of the kit is a "dynamic link library," CLRCTRL.DLL, which provides the dialog control in a self-contained package that can easily be integrated into any program. The design of the DLL allows the custom control to be manipulated the same way a built-in control is manipulated, using the Dialog Editor found in the Microsoft Software Development Kit. The design of the control is that of a combobox that contains rectangles of color that can be selected by the user using the normal input actions for comboboxes. By default, the color selector uses the standard 16 "pure" colors as its selection palette, but this can be changed using normal combobox messages.

IMPORTANT: If you are using CyberWin 1.0, you will need to make a slight change to each entry in your CyberWin.Map file (the path needs to be on a separate line from the filename).

DRIFT.ZIP Drift Version 0.01 by Nick Waltham 8th Nov 1991 This is an utterly pointless program which causes all windows and icons to drift around the screen. I got the idea from a progam that came with the Acorn Archimedes 'DeskTop'. This program (for what its worth!) is donated to the public domain. This progam must be distributed unmodified complete with this readme file. No fee may be charged for it (who WOULD pay...) except for any reasonable copying charges. DRWATSON.ZIP DrWatson is a diagnostic tool designed to provide developers with detailed information on the internal state of Windows when a system error such as an unrecoverable application error (UAE) occurs. DrWatson must be running at the time a UAE occurs in order to extract the required internal information from the system. DrWatson takes very little memory and does not affect performance, so we encourage you to install DrWatson if a UAE has occurred before. After DrWatson is installed, if another UAE occurs, valuable information will be collected and written to a special file in the WINDOWS directory. Microsoft can use this information to make the next version of Windows even better than Windows 3.0. Application vendors can also use this information to improve their applications. DSKTRK10.ZIP DiskTrak for Windows Version 1.00 by Peninsula Software DiskTrak for Windows was designed to provide a "quick and easy" method for keeping track of diskette files.

Optionally, you can include a comment or description for each file on each diskette. Also, you can have DiskTrak for Windows extract the names of files stored inside "ZIP", "PAK", "ARC", "ZOO", and "LZH" archive files (and you can create comments for these files as well.) DiskTrak for Windows also has other useful disk and file related capabilities: it can label and re-label diskettes, delete and/or restore files in its database, and produce 5 types of hard and/or soft copy reports of its database contents. Finally, DiskTrak for Windows supports several "usability" functions such as screen color customization, database maintenance, and DOS Shell functionality. DSOUND.ZIP [$1.00] Sounder 2.0 by by Aaron Wallace Digitalized Sound Player for Windows 3.0 Sounder allows you to play digitalized sound files recorded in the popular Macintosh sound format on your PC. Better yet, no sound board is required, although a 10 MHz or faster machine is. This program was inspired by programs like REmac and Talk that operate on the principle of speeding up the system clock to a ridiculous speed, turning off everything else, and faking dynamic modulation with the imperfect dynamics of the PC speaker system and the human ear. For such a hack, the sound is actually pretty good, although the quality depends on the actual sound file and also may vary from system to system and speaker to speaker.

FATBIT.ZIP [Free] Fatbits - A pixel magnifier program for Windows 3.0 By John Ridges Fatbits is one of those mind bogglingly useful utility programs for people writing Windows software. (If you're not a Windows programmer, it'll probably bore you to tears). It magnifies an area of the screen centered around the cursor and paints the giant pixels into a small, tastefully decorated window. This can be indispensable when you want to see something right down to the last pixel. This is a re-implementation of a Mac desk accessory that's been around since day one. This one is a little better than the Mac version since, due to the miracle of multi-tasking, you can leave it open and still continue to use other programs while it runs. FBUSTER.ZIP [Free] Font Buster by Christopher Shaulis Shows installed fonts. Requires VBRUN100.DLL. FFIND.ZIP File finder utility. FILAPP.ZIP by Eschalon Development Inc.

FILEBOX.ZIP by Harry JF Wykes (End User Computing Limited) FILEBOX demonstrates how to fake a Windows style file-open box from within VB. A ListBox is used to display the directories and disks, rather than the Visual Basic DriveBox and DirBox objects.

FIND3.ZIP FINDER 3.00 by Malcolm Hoar, [100010,2761] Have you ever lost an application buried under another pile of Windows? If the answer to this question is yes, then Finder is the solution for you. Finder is a program which allows you to swap between all of your active applications with tremendous ease. Finder adds a control Icon to the title bar of your currently active application, adjacent to the control menu Icon (ie near the top left hand corner of your active window). Click this Icon and you get a pull down list of your currently active applications. Simply select the one you want and it will be activated and brought to the top of the heap. Finder is so much more convenient than the standard Windows features. For example, the Switch To item of the Control Menu or double clicking the desktop to invoke Task Manager (especially when your current application is full screen). Finder works very nicely indeed with BackMenu and some consider it an excellent replacement for BigDesk because it consumes far fewer resources. FINFO.ZIP Device and Font Version 1.11 by Marc J.

FM10C.ZIP FM Sound player. FM202.ZIP FontManager for Windows version 2.0c FontManager is designed to deal with the limits of installed font resources in the Windows PostScript printer driver. This limit varies from system to system and runs between 120 and 170 fonts. Prior to FontManager, the only way to alter the installed PostScript softfonts in Windows was to either manually edit win.ini entries or to have multiple win.ini files with different font configurations. FontManager automates the task of changing PostScript font resources in Windows and ATM, and allows these changes to be made quickly. These changes may be made through any combination of user defined fontpaks or individual fonts. It alleviates common kludges such as having multiple WIN.INI files. FontManager also allows you to install and change the fonts used with ATM in the same manner as WIN.INI. With FontManager, maintaining mirrored font setups in win.ini and atm.ini is very simple. When changing ATM resources, FontManager does offer the option to do an orderly, automatic restart of Windows. FontManager will manage up to 2048 type 1 PostScript fonts and up to 6 PostScript printer ports. Printer ports may be changed individually or as a gorup .

Sloop Software [72540,144] FONTER15.ZIP [$15.00] Fonter 1.5 by George Campbell Creates a notebook of installed fonts in Windows. Req. VBRUN100.DLL. Fonter was designed to fill a gap in current Windows 3.0 programs. Since Windows can use and display many fonts, especially with font scaling software like ATM or FaceLift, it's easy to accumulate enough fonts that you soon forget what you have. Even worse, each company's fonts use a different character set, especially in the extended ASCII characters. Also, creating a notebook containing samples of all your fonts is a time consuming process, if you use a word processor to do the job. So here's Fonter, which does all that and more. Fonter runs under Windows 3.0 and lets you view and print all the fonts available for your printer and screen. You can print up a notebook of your fonts, with complete character sets, plus a single sheet that shows all your fonts at once. Even better, you can run Fonter, minimize it, then pop it up over any Windows 3.0 application for quick reference to your fonts. Once you try it, you'll wonder why Fonter wasn't around long ago. FONTSH43.ZIP [$15.00] FontShow for Windows 4.3 by Harvey J. Kaye [73667,1755] FontShow is a font viewing and cataloging program for Microsoft Windows. It is designed primarily for those users of Windows that have many fonts installed and require an effective and easy to use method of cataloging and displaying their installed fonts. FontShow is intended for users of font addon packages such as Adobe Type Manager, Bitstream Facelift, SuperPrint, or Publisher's PowerPak. FontShow should be compatible with Windows 3.1 and TrueType when it becomes available, however this has not yet been tested. FontShow has been tested extensively in the ATM version 1.1 environment only. The source code is commented and should answer most of your questions. When you're comfortable using FOPEN delete the comments. Some routines are borrowed from the Visual Basic Programmer's Guide and cardfile.bas. FORNR102.ZIP Foreigner Version 1.02 Copyright L.G.

Enhancements over the built in MacroAssignToKey: Allows the use of Alt-Char, Alt-Ctrl-Char, and Alt-Shift-Char. In the built in routine the first two combinations are disallowed. The last is reserved for Word for Windows's use. Note that Word for Windows reserves these key sequences for it's own use in many cases, so preventing you from reassigning them is a form of protection. Use this routine cautiously, and backup all DOT files before you experiment. GO.ZIP Famous game in a Windows version.

The indicator linearly represents an integer magnitude within a given range by displaying, graphically, it's current value. The indicator provides two styles, thermometer and needle. The thermometer style represents process-status' as a partially "filled" value-region within a rectangular area. The needle style similarly represents process-status', except that the value region (including and previous to the value mark) is not filled. All GrafStat styles allow the customization of their appearance and function (e.g. display value or percent text, changing colors, orientation, etc.).

HYPEROID.ZIP An arcade game for Windows by Edward Hutchins This is my shot at making an arcade game for Windows that's actually FUN to play. Most of the Windows arcade games I've seen so far are too slow to have fun with (on my 25MHz 64k cache '386 at any rate :-) --- exception granted to Jerry J.

LENS101.ZIP Lens 1.00 by Ned Konz [76046,223] A Windows Screen Magnifying Glass This is a Windows version of an Amiga program I wrote in 1985. It was written in C++ and compiled with Zortech's excellent v3.0 compiler. Interestingly, the Windows version of Lens runs about as fast on a 25 MHz 80386 as the Amiga version did on a 7 MHz 68000. I think this is because I am using the Windows StretchBlt() call to do the magnification here, instead of my optimized magnification routine on the Amiga. Future versions of Lens for Windows will probably magnify faster using this routine. If you feel this program has value to you, I'd really appreciate some kind of payment ($5 bills, source code, good beer, etc.). Lens normally magnifies an area of the screen around the mouse cursor.

Hazard Windows 2/3 object-based paint program. Welcome to PRO-SHAPE, a wonderful yet simple paint program for Microsoft Windows. PRO-SHAPE was originally developed for my personal needs. I wanted to be able to draw some simple pictures that would be very complicated to make on my IBM. At the time, Windows version 3 was not available, and even some of the paint programs didn't exist. As I worked on the program, I realized that this would be a usefull addition to many people's software. When Windows version 3 was introduced, I saw even more interesting possibilities. I continued working on the program, but was bothered when other paint programs emerged. Luckily they were too expensive for my pocket (and many other peoples'), and I continued to see a demand for my program. Well, the version of PRO-SHAPE that you are currently viewing is still being worked on, but I want to see some support.

QUITWIN2.ZIP [$9.00] Using the WINDOWS API from Visual BASIC by Richard Mansfield (9-91) Beneath Visual BASIC, within Windows, are hundreds of powerful, small commands that are as tiny as they are useful. If you want to be able to strike through or italicize a word (or an individual character in a text box), or cause one icon to dissolve into another, or activate sound, or design your own 3-D buttons...or hundreds of other things, you'll want to find out about the "API" lurking underneath Visual BASIC and accessed by calling them the same way you would call a sub or function. The API (Application Programming Interface) is a fancy name for a set of "libraries." These libraries are rich collections of commands, actions that Windows will take if you touch one of the commands within them. It's all handled for you in Visual BASIC -- just type in the Sub or Function correctly and supply the required variables. These libraries are present in the WINDOWS/SYSTEM directory under names such as USER.EXE and GDI.EXE. Knowing how to access these commands greatly increases your control over Windows and your ability to effectively program in Visual BASIC. Using the API is like adding hundreds of specific procedures, events, and properties to the already astonishing potency of Visual BASIC.

I've seen a few inquiries in the Windows development forums lately about how to calculate free system resources. Since I've figured out how to do this, I whipped up Resource Gauge, which not only shows how this is done but which should also prove to be a useful tool. A few notes regarding the program: o The display consists of an icon-sized "gas gauge", with used resources in blue and free resources in white and also in text in the center of the display. o The make file builds the program to run only in protected mode. o I use Mike Geary's FixDS, so you won't see MakeProcInstance() or EXPORT in the source. o You can only run one instance of this program, and it always stays iconized. It doesn't make much sense to do things any other way. o Feel free to use anything you find of use in the code. I'm not possessive! RESTART.ZIP Restart Windows by clicking on an icon.

Second, AppDock by David Black, a similar implementation, came along, but I didn't like it, and I thought the idea could be taken much furthur. So, I wrote Route1.

I posted the Turbo Pascal for Windows code on Compuserve in an effort to get more information and received some interesting messages that can be found in a file floating around called VBTIPS.ZIP. Basically, it said you're own your own! I'm posting this little demo and the source code into the public domain for any who would like to use it or are just curious about how to call these sound functions.

Statline is also light on your resources, when loaded it uses just over 20k and is updated about every 12 seconds. Experienced Windows users can probably just skim this manual and figure out most of Statline in a few moments using the help display. STOPW.ZIP [Free] Stopwatch by Kyle Kane Stephens Stopwatch was developed because I needed a simple utility to keep track of the time I spent on the computer when I was consulting. Stopwatch marks the time when you tell it to and when you stop it, it marks the time you stopped it. Stopwatch then tells you the difference between start time and stop time. Stopwatch starts time with either a click of the start button or a click of the start time label and stops time with a click of the stop button or the finish time label. The keys are enabled and disabled appropriately to avoid clicking one of them by mistake. Also, if you click exit, the program checks to see if you are currently keeping track of time. Requires VBRUN100.DLL. STRTGY.ZIP Text file from Microsoft detailing the future of Windows, and how DOS figures into it. Shipped as RTF file, usable in WinWord. Read This!! STSBAR.ZIP Status Bar Control Version 1.1.0 by Jean-Marc Krikorian Dynamic Link Library, an import library and an external header file. These three files will allow you to access the Status Bar Control. Also included is a sample program SBTEST.* that shows one how to access the control. A Microsoft Word for Windows document is also included that explains more about the control. In the document every message is explained in detail and the layout resembles that of the Microsoft Windows SDK Manuals. The Status Bar Control DLL is a shareware product. I welcome any suggestions, comments or questions you may have on this product. The source code is also available. SUPERRM.ZIP SoftBlox Resource Monitor for Windows 3.0 The SuperRM Utility provides real-time, graphical feedback on usage of primary resources for the main Windows subsystems, GDI and USER, and the currently Active Task. In addition the utility provides the amount of memory available and can be instructed to do periodic compaction of global memory. The Monitor Window can also be instructed to constantly stay on top of all other windows for easy, real-time monitoring. The Sampling Rate, Compaction Rate, meter control colors and other options can be modified and will be saved across invocations. The front-end to the SuperRM utility uses our own 3D custom controls. To conserve desktop real estate, the dialogs for this utility do not have any borders. However, these dialogs can still be moved around quite easily by 'picking' the dialog itself with the mouse (instead of the standard caption bar). Each of the meter controls can be individually customized. SWBOOK.ZIP [$5.00] THE SOFTWARE BOOK by Charles K. Snider [73730,1315] A Book for Software Descriptions. SWITCHER.ZIP by Robert Salesas [76625,1320] Switcher is a faster way of changing video modes. This is very practical for people who routinely switch between 16 and 256 color modes. Setup is a slow and cumbersome process, so I created Switcher, which is faster (especially when setup has to copy fonts) and simpler. Now, when you want to switch modes, run Switcher, select one of the modes in the list box, and choose either "Restart Windows" or "Exit To DOS". Switcher will change the video mode, fonts, drivers, etc..., and either restart Windows or quit Windows altogether. To remove a video mode you no longer use, select it, then choose "Remove selected mode" from the system menu. That's all there is to it! SWLOG.ZIP [$5.00] Software LogBook 1.0 by Dane Basch Written as ToolBook application. SYSEDIT2.ZIP SYSEDIT2 by Robert (BOB) Frazier [70172,177] This is a (slightly) modified version of the 'MULTIPAD' demo program included with the Windows 3.0 Software Developer's kit. This is a rather handy little editor, and it can be clearly seen that it was this program which was used to develop the 'SYSEDIT.EXE' program that the Windows INSTALL program placed in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory when you installed Windows 3.0. This program was written primarily to correct a bug in the 'SYSEDIT' program, which will be discussed below. SYSGRAF4.ZIP Version 4.0 of System Graph by Bill Crow, Hewlett-Packard Co, Jim Hasselbeck, PPG Industries., and James Straub, Stony Brook University. SysGraph displays the load in the Windows system queue in an icon at the bottom of the screen. The graph is updated every 1/2 second. Additional system load is shown by dips in the graph. 6-91 SYSLOAD.ZIP System Load icon spins onscreen to show system loading. No docs. SYSRES.ZIP System Resource Display Version 1.0B by D. Beach [70641,654] SysRes is used to provide continous display of available system resources. It was prototyped in Visual Basic (version 0.1 9/4/91) and is now implemented in C. It uses exported functions from TOOLHELP.DLL (provided with DrWatson) which is available from Microsoft Forums on Compuserve. (10-12-91) SysRes will create a SYSRES.INI file in whatever directory it is run from. It performs as a read-only application thereafter unless settings are changed. Many Windows applications have trouble running under low resource conditions. SysRes was written to assist users in avoiding situations which might result in UAE's from otherwise stable applications. Comments are welcome, enjoy. SYSWIT12.ZIP SySwitch by Paul Bonner Senior Editor PC/Computing [76000,13] Designed to make it easy to switch between up to five alternative SYSTEM.INI file configurations. You might, for instance, have alternative SYSTEM.X files for use with different screen drivers or different Windows shells. SYSWITCH.EXE, VBPOINT.DLL and SYS2.TXT should all be placed in your WINDOWS directory. Many of the routines used here were borrowed from other applications available on the MSBASIC forum. Specifically, I found the CopyFile routine in the VBTIPS.TXT file, the 3D Frame routine is a variation of that used in the VB-TIPS Reader, and the RestartProc routine is detailed in the MOREAPI.ZIP file. Version 2.0 of SySwitch also makes use of Jonathan Zuck's VBPOINT.DLL. My thanks to the authors of each routine. TAIPEI.ZIP [$10.00] Taipei 3.10 by Dave Norris. Game.

Most This is a handy Windows utility to correlate film footage and video timecode. It can calculate properly using either drop frame or non drop frame code, at the user's choice. After identifying a "sync point" for the film footage, i.e., a timecode number at which the footage will equal 0+0 (feet+frames), the proper footage for any time code can be calculated. In addition, the footage can be entered and the equivalent time code calculated. All film calculations (for 35mm) are based on 24 frames per second, 16 frames per foot. 8-91 TCHAOS.ZIP [Free] Time & Chaos 1.0A Prerelease version [74017,3424] A tool to provide an alternative to the overly complex Personal Information Managers (PIMS).

Picciotto Communications and terminal emulation program - very nice. UARTMN12.ZIP UART Monitor by Dale S. Hoover [73300,3712] A Windows "electronic breakout box". This program is designed to monitor the UARTS associated with serial ports ( COM1-COM4 ). It is intended to be use simultaneous with an application using the UART. It should not interfere in the monitoring mode although the menus allow the end user to change the baud rate, data_bits, stop_bits, and parity. Certain combinations of data_bits, stop_bits, and parity are not valid and are inhibited in the menus. Because the intended use is to monitor the serial port the serial ports are not opened and the interrupts of are not modified, tested, or chained. If no application is using the UART then the monitor will not reflect valid information ( i.e. the UART needs to be initialized by an application other than the monitor. ) UC3A-1.ZIP (and UC3A-2.ZIP) UniComm 3.0 by Data Graphics Background communications for Windows features X/Y/ZModem, scripting language and scheduler, online help system, chat mode, hot keys, macros, print logging and mouse/keyboard recording. 9-91 UMAX120.ZIP UMAx 1.20 by FM de Monasterio allows for the testing of a number of services of the extended memory manager, which implements the extended memory specification in 80286-based or higher machines.

USHER14C.ZIP [$15.00] Usher 1.4c by George Browning Usher was written to replace memory- and resource-hogging shells such as the Program Manager and hDC Window's Express. Usher is a pop-up menu of applications that appears when the user clicks with a mouse button on the desktop. This menu can have hierarchical sub-menus for grouping applications together. For example, the main menu heading might be Utilities with a sub-menu for system utilities called System. Important: Usher can be run as the shell or an application under an existing shell. Usher takes up only 9K of memory, so users with less than 2 Meg of memory might want to replace their existing shell with Usher. If you would like to continue running your existing shell as your main shell, just add usher.exe to the load or run command line in the win.ini file. Otherwise, change the shell entry in the system.ini file to shell=c:\win30\usher.exe (or whatever). Usher automatically figures out if it is the shell.

VBFINDID.ZIP by Costas Kitsos October 1991 Visual Basic provides no way to determine or define the IDs of Controls in VB forms. VBFindID is a small WinApp I wrote in Turbo Pascal for Windows (for compactness). It can be used to determine the IDs of VB Controls (including Labels) during development of your VB Apps. Knowing the IDs before hand saves you from having to determine control IDs during run-time and allows you the flexibility to use several API calls during the Form_Load procedure without having to show the form and go through a series of SetFocus statements. Also, it's the only way I know of to get the IDs of VB labels. VBFLIP.ZIP VB Flipper app. VBGA.ZIP VBGA VER. 1.00 by Jim McClure Vance. This program was written with Microsoft Visual Basic 1.0 The bitmaps were generated with Windows Paint. I generated the program to familiarize myself with VB 1.0 It was fun. There are several maps of Georgia with information related to the map type. Nothing to flashy now, but this is my FIRST EXE. I hope there is some use for the information contained in VBGA.EXE and I would like to get some feedback if anyone has a comment. VBGETDEC.ZIP When you have unused DLL declarations in a program, the .EXE file created by Visual Basic is larger than it needs to be. This happens because VB doesn't check to see if you've actually used each declared procedure in your program. The GetDec Utility is used to create a file containing DLL procedure declarations, Type..End Type definitions, and Global Const declarations. Once you've created the file, you can remove all the declarations in your program and paste this new file into your global module. The source code for GetDec is included with MicroHelp Muscle. Muscle contains more than 400 other routines (most of which are written in assembly language) that make your Visual Basic programs faster and smaller or provide more functionality. MicroHelp also publishes VBTools (the most popular Visual Basic add-on library) as well as the MicroHelp Communications Library for Visual Basic. We also offer a large selection of add-on products for Microsoft QuickBASIC and BASIC Professional Development System (PDS).

I should warn you that it is neither complete (in that it doesn't support all VT100 escape sequences, handle function or cursor keys, etc.), well designed, or fully debugged. The VT100 emulation seems sufficient to use with CompuServe, which was a prime requirement of mine. On the other hand, more demanding systems (such as UNIX's VI editor) will not work. VBTIPS.ZIP Text file by Nelson Ford. Tips on using Visual Basic 1.0. VBTOOLS.ZIP Demo of MicroHelp's VBTools package. VBUTIL.ZIP by George M. White [71511,1072] This .ZIP file contains two utilities for use with Microsoft's Visual Basic. These utilities are called VBCOPY.EXE and VBDEL.EXE. They are used to copy or delete Visual Basic projects. Visual Basic stores information about the project in the .MAK file. VBCOPY and VBDEL read the .MAK file and determine which forms and/or other files belong to the project. VBCOPY will copy the .MAK file and the other files for the project to another directory. VBDEL will DELETE the .MAK file and ALL the other files for the project. These utilities will tell you if it doesn't think the .MAK file is a Visual Basic .MAK file. The error messages out of these utilities are simple. Most of the time any error message indicates that the .MAK file or path is incorrect or that the destination path is incorrect. VBDEL will prompt you before it deletes any project. I have used these utilities many times without any problems. I determined the format of the .MAK file on my own so I cannot guarantee that it will always find the correct forms even though is has so far. Please report any bugs found with this utilities to me so I can fix them and upload a new copy. Thank You. VCPI.ZIP Text file by Daniel Travison on DOS Extender technology/implementation.

For fun, can you tell if this is the real Waldo or an imposter and why? The animation isn't great, and the program is very simple, but I thought it might help some beginners add some flare to their programs. I am a beginner too, but VB makes this very simple. WALKER.ZIP [$10.00] WALKER by Brad Lucas [74130,2452] Windows Application Executive runs programs from a small window. You enter the filename and it's path in Walker's client area and hit return to run that program. Walker can be used as a replacement for the Program Managers File Run dialog box. It is small and can be placed out of the way and because it is a window and not a modal dialog box, it is always available. For more information run Walker and look at it's Help system, accessed off of the system menu.

WANSI12E.ZIP WinANSI Windows ANSI Editor by Tim Jones AmSoft Development WinANSI came about while I was evaluating Russell Frey's PowerBBS for Windows. As a part of PowerBBS setup, you are allowed to edit the text files displayed by the BBS system to callers at various times. Mr. Frey defaulted the called edit or to 'TheDRAW', which is an excellent ANSI editor if you don't mind leaving the Windows environment. Well, I didn't have 'TheDRAW' at the time, so I changed his default to Windows' NOTEPAD, only to be disappointed when it wouldn't let me enter a literal ESC character. After looking around for a week on various BBS's, I decided that I would have to do it myself if I were going to satisfy my need for a true Windows-based ANSI editor. WinANSI is the result of my work. WARHEADS.ZIP Warheads for Windows v 1.01 by Brian C. Lowe and Eric Lee Steadle Game ala Missile Command, nicely done.

Those of you who develop working macros (Excel, Winword, etc.) for use with WinCheck are encouraged to upload them to CompuServe (WINAPA, Library 15), so that other users can benefit from your experience. WCK20E.ZIP [$39.95] WinCheck 2.0E by Dave Edson Checkbook program that also tracks savings account. Very nicely done. WCLOCK11.ZIP ======== [$10.00] WCLOCK 1.1 by Dylan. C. Rhodes French Translation by Frederic Le Bas WCLOCK presents a slightly more user-friendly time display than the standard CLOCK program supplied by Microsoft. WCLOCK is loosely based on a program called DAYTIME which I once saw running on a BSD Unix system. I wrote this using Borland C++ (although I used pure ANSI C) on an ALR BusinessVEISA model 101 sporting a Hercules Graphics Station Card. (And yes, the program really does look that much better on a 1024x768x256 screen.) 5-91 WCOLORS.ZIP by Richard Hale Shaw WINCOLOR is the answer to all of Windows 3.0 Control Panel limitations.

WDN.ZIP Windows Directory Notes by Corel Systems Corp. Pat Beirne This is a tiny Windows app which allows the user to add annotation to his directories. For compatibility with DIRNOTES.COM, this app allows up to 38 characters to be associated with each file. The notes are stored in a file called DIRN-xxx.DAT where xxx is the first three letters of the directory name. If the name is less than 3 letters, '-' is used. For example, for the root, the note file is called DIRN----.DAT. The format for this file is identical to that used by DIRNOTES.CO M, a popular DOS program. WE227.ZIP WindE by Bill Block [74010,1110] As a first time user, you will find that WindE is unique amoung the current crop of programming editors. This uniqueness is WindE's strength and its weakness. The weakness comes from the fact that there really is not anything similar from which a new user can have gained any previous experience. The strength in the WindE interface is that any text in any file can be pointed to with the mouse, selected and used in any of several commands that can be poped-up with the mouse. WED12J.ZIP WinEdit by Wilson WindoWare Very nice multifile document editor, updated 9-91. Features MDI and Icon Bar, top flight editor for Windows!

WEM30.ZIP Windows Easy Menu 3.0 by Glen S. Tittermary [71401,2413] Menu system that takes less memory than Program Manager. Windows Easy Menu (WEM) is the complete menuing system for Microsoft Windows 3.0. It makes user-defined applications available with a single click of the mouse or press of a key. In addition, it makes all of the Windows Desktop Accessories or user defined accessories available on the same menu. Applications may be Windows applications or DOS programs. Windows Easy Menu has complete keyboard support, so it is an excellent Windows applications manager for laptops and other systems without a mouse. This version of WEM includes support for start-up directories for each menu item, and each item can be started as either a window, icon, or full screen. Version 3.0 includes the WEM Menu Editor, which makes maintenance of your menus much easier. With the editor, you can clear, insert, and delete menu items. The editor also provides printer support, so all of the menu data can be printed. 4-91 WEMORY10.ZIP WEMORY Version 1.0 A Windows Memory viewer and clock.

WGF10A.ZIP WGIF 1.0a WGIF is a freeware program to display pictures that conform to the GIF87a standard under Microsoft Windows 3.0. I created it because I couldn't believe that every existing GIF display program I could find for Windows 3.0 had a shareware price tag and also because I needed a vehicle to begin learning about the display of bitmaps under Windows, scroll bars, menus, etc. WGIF is currently the fastest GIF display program I've seen for Microsoft Window s 3.0. It loads pictures in 50% of the time that WinGIF 0.80 needs and it can p erform an ordered dithering while decoding with hardly any slowdown. This speed would not have been possible if not for the excellent LZW decoding routines of Steven A. Bennett, many thanks to him. You can use File Manager's ability to associate programs with file extensions so that you can double click on a GIF file listed in a File Manager window and WGI F will open and begin displaying the picture. 2-91 WGREP1.ZIP [$20.00] Windows Grep version 1.1 Huy Millington, ENGLAND Windows Grep is a text search utility modeled on the UNIX utility of the same name.

Whiskers works with the new driver (Whisker.drv) to allow the Middle button simulation. If Whiskers is not active, the driver (Whiskers.drv) will operate the same way that the old two (2) button driver did. If you have a two (2) button mouse, but do not want the Middle button simulation, proceed to the Whiskers.exe Installation section and do not install the new driver.

WINADV10.ZIP WINADV 1.0 The Colossal Cave Adventure game by Wolfgang Strobl A port of the original, famous text adventure game to Windows 3, featuring multiple resizeable windows. This version 1.0 of the port works quite well, but hasn't got much testing. Actually, I'm the only tester so far, because I finished it only a few hours ago. Because all the people I could ask for testing are on vacation, I'll put this version on cica.cica.indiana.edu and send a note to comp.windows.ms, asking for feedback, in order to get it out of the door.

Two cosmetic enhancements (inspired by a Macintosh cursor tracking program) differentiate it from similar Windows programs: 1. Approximately once every four seconds, Blinkie "blinks". 2. After about one minute of no mouse cursor activity, Blinkie closes its eyelids until the next mouse movement. There are no special installation or setup requirements. If necessary, please consult a Windows reference for instructions on installing Windows applications. WINCD.ZIP Windows Change Directory by Antero Aalto You propably have noticed an annoying problem with Windows: Applications always start in the directory they exist. This is the Program Manager's fault, because the working directory isn't a part of the applications properties. WinCD solves this problem. Moreover, WinCD provides an easy way to change the working directory such that all apps start in it, until you change directory with WinCD again. You should know, however, that achieving this requires some preparations. When you change directory with WinCD, the working directory is saved to a file. When WinCD starts, it reads the working directory from that file and changes to it. As WinCD now executes another application, it will run in the directory you wanted. WINCHESS.ZIP Chess game for Windows. (Version 2.X) WINCHR10.ZIP [$6.95] by Richard L. Jack Tables of OEM and ANSI characters used in Windows. WINCLI.ZIP [$35.00] WinCLI by Eschalon Development Inc. [76625,1320] A command line interface for Windows 3. It performs most of the functions that the standard DOS prompt, Command.com, does. With WinCLI you are able to run Windows programs by typing their name instead of looking for an icon. A DOS prompt in enhanced mode wastes over 640 Kb all the time. Even when if you aren't running a program. WinCLI requires less than 40 KBytes when fully loaded. Less if Windows needs memory for other things. WinCLI works equally well on all modes of Windows. You don't need a 386 to take advantage of this DOS prompt! You can now have a complete command line even in standard mode. It also multitasks better than Command.com (because Win CLI is a well behaved Windows application) so you don't lose precious cycles. Of course you also have all the normal features of a standard DOS shell. You can show directories, create subdirectories, rename files, delete files, a nd much, much more! WINCLK31.ZIP WinClock is a digital clock for Microsoft Windows 3.0 that has the following features: - Display of time and date in many different formats - Ten alarms (which can be set for daily or only a specified date) - Run Program Timer (ability to run programs at specified times) - Optional hourly "beep" - Allows user to set date and time easily - Optionally stays in front of other applications - "Remembers" its position on the screen - Two stopwatches - Two countdown timers - Colon separating hours and minutes may be set to "blink" - Context sensitive help - Direct Screen saver compatibility (Auto detect active screen saver) - "Cascade" and "Tile" compatibility WINCLP.ZIP Lets non-Windows apps read the Clipboard!

WINCLP12.ZIP [$15.00] WINCLIP 1.2 by George Campbell [71571,222] When working with Windows 3.0 software, it's often easiest to standardize on .BMP files for your clip art needs. Every Windows program can handle these images, and most paint programs, including Windows PaintBrush, included with Windows 3.0, can produce and edit these files. Unfortunately, it's been impossible to view these files quickly or to print a catalog of your clip art images. Until WinClip, that is. WinClip allows you to view your .BMP files on screen, and then print a catalog of all your files, or just the ones you select. WinClip is so easy to use that you may not need any documentation at all. It uses the standard Windows 3.0 conventions, relying on buttons primarily, rather than menu commands. As an additional feature, WinClip allows you to edit your images, using Windows PaintBrush or any other paint program you choose. WINCMD.ZIP [$3.00] Windows Command game by Tim Baldwin [72240, 3372] This is my first published Windows application. Extensive programming effort was involved to try and make "Windows Command" an entertaining game that is (hopefully) bug-free. The demo version is Freeware. The game will end when the score exceeds 20000. If you enjoy it, please register! If you find any difficulty running the program, let me know. I need feedback to fix my boo-boos! 5-91 WINCMD09.ZIP [$20.00] WINCMD the Windows Command Line Interpreter by Robert E. Frazier [70172,177] This is the *Ultimate* in command line processors! It is a prerelease (shareware) program that performs similar to the COMMAND.COM program under MS-DOS, Nearly every common DOS function has been included (in some manner) within the Command Line Interpreter. Because this is a *PRE-RELEASE* version, not all of the functions are complete at this time. Most of the common functions are either performed internally, or are 'trapped' to prevent their use under Windows(tm) (functions such as SHARE, CHKDSK, etc.) with appropriate warning messages. Use of such programs would normally do damage to file or memory structures. Other functions will eventually be incorporated (FORMAT, VOL, LABEL, EDIT, etc.), but for now the DOS 'external' programs are run in response to these commands. Finally, special *ENHANCEMENTS* (such as TASKLIST, KILLT ASK, background COPY, 'SET' improvements, etc.) allow the Command Line Interpreter to take advantage of the multi-tasking environment available under Windows(tm), or add desirable functionality to an already useful DOS command. 11-91 WINCRON.ZIP [$20.00] WinCron by Mark L. Woodward The WinCron program allows you to execute system backups, long printing jobs, or time consuming tasks long after you have left for the day. Put simply, WinCron is an alarm clock that runs programs. WinCron also provides a clock icon that displays the current time. One of the more helpful features of WinCron is that it does not matter if the computer is turned off between event schedules. The schedule is always saved. As long as the computer is on either at the time of an event or after it, the event will run. WINDATE.ZIP Datest 1.0 by Mark Jones Test DATE.DLL integrity.

If you find this software useful, you may complete the registration form and send in $5 to receive the shareware release at no additional charge. WinDEX is a Win3 application that allows any one of 6 standard DOS processes to be executed in the background with results of the execution reported in WinDEX. Two programs will be provided in the package - WINDEXM (manager) and WINDEXU (user). The programs are identical except that WINDEXU cannot change any options. This allows an "expert" to provide a "user" with a little utility that they can't mess up. (The preliminary release contains only WINDEXM.) WINDIR1A.ZIP WinDir 1.1 By Sean Bishop WinDir was first thought of by my friend Kenny Napier who got sick of having to shell out to DOS or run some long program just to get a quick directory of path to see if the file he needs is there, so he told me to make a program that allows you to quickly enter the drive and pathname and then a list of the files in that directory will be shown to you. If you have any suggestions, comments or DONATIONS then please send them to me at the following address, or if you wish to send just comments or suggestions you can leave me a message on CYBORG Inc.

WINEZ21A.ZIP WinEZ 2.1 by New Generation Software [70312,127] A Windows 3.0 utility that provides a fast and easy way to: Switch to any other active applications directly from the one you are using; Switch directly to the Windows' Program Manager or any other add-in shell you may be using; Start any Program Manager application from within the application you are using; or start any application with WinEZ's enhanced version of the Program Manager's Run facility.

WINFONT.ZIP clySmic Fonts for Windows 3.0 by Ralph B Smith Jr. [76156,164] Replacement bitmapped screen fonts for your VGA Windows 3.0 system. They can replace the system font (used for menus and many other elements), the fixed system font (used for Notepad and most text editors), and the fixed OEM font (used for running windowed DOS programs). These are not printer or resizable fonts. I love (most of) the system font in Windows 3.0, but the fixed font is the ugly Windows 2.x font, and the OEM font is awful too. So, I came up with some replacements. These fonts are all installed by editing SYSTEM.INI. Make a backup copy of your old SYSTEM.INI in case something goes wrong (Windows won't like that, especially with the system variable font, and may not start). Just copy these files to your Windows system directory (usually something like \WINDOWS\SYSTEM) and edit SYSTEM.INI which is in your windows directory (usually \WINDOWS). Unlike some poorly done fonts, the base character style has been extended to all the characters. WINGIF11.ZIP [$15.00] Windows .GIF viewer by Kyle Powell 76704,12 This is still a preliminary version of my Windows 3.0 GIF decoder/BMP converter.

Woodward [72760, 2400] The winpipes DLL is a tool that provides IPC communications to Microsoft Windows 3.0 and is designed to emulate stream file functions under 'C.' While pipes arean integral part of many operating systems, Windows lacks this facility. Windows relies almost exclusively on DDE and the clipboard for application communication. While these methods are fine for large complicated pieces of data, pipes are simple structures and require very little brain work to incorporate. With a pipe, communication between processes is as simple as file I/O . WINPH33.ZIP [$20.00] Metz Phones by Metz Software Telecommunications package from Metz Software. Dial phone from Excel!!! WINPIZZA.ZIP by Richard B. Brightwell This is a simple little program I wrote to time the pizza delivery people and collect my three dollar discount if it was late.

I'm also too lazy to go into the kitchen and start the timer on the microwave ergo PIZZA! It starts counting as soon as you start it, runs in the background, displays a message when thrity minutes have passed, and then continues to count so you'll know how late they are and when to call and gripe!

The WinTide graphic, which also can be displayed as an icon, uses the rule of twelves, also called the rule of one-two-three, to depict relative water height between high and low tides. This rule states that during the first and sixth hours between high and low tides the water rises one-twelfth of the total height each hour; during the second and fifth hours two-twelfths; and during the third and fourth hours three-twelfths. WinTide assumes a 24 hour and 50 minute tidal day and therefore uses six hours twelve minutes and 30 seconds as the average time between high and low tides.

WSPCR20.ZIP [Free] WorkSpacer by Gregg Hommel, WiGuys Software [72537,552] Way back when, I tested something called hDc FirstApps. One useful utility included in those applications stored desktop configurations as a named workset, and at your request, would restore that configuration to the desktop. I no longer use hDc FirstApps, but have always liked that concept, and missed the application many times. After some minor experimentation with batch files under the Norton Desktop for Windows, I decided to see if I might be able to accomplish something similar using the Norton Desktop for Windows Batch Builder Language (ambitious, aren't I??). The result is WorkSpacer. WORKSPACER: 1) obtains appropriate information about your current desktop configuration, 2) stores that information in a private ini file in your windows directory, 3) stores a list of chosen workspace names in a file in your NDW directory, and 4) restores to the desktop a workspace specified by the user.
