LOGICOMM
LogiCOMM 2.20S is a terminal communications program written specifically
for IBM's Operating System 2 (OS/2). The program has been designed to
provide access to many commonly used telecommunications tasks. Some of
the many features offered by LogiCOMM are:
- A 200 entry dialing library.
- Dialing queues and automatic redial.
- Telephone access code capabilities.
- Keyboard macros.
- Many common file transfer protocols, including:
- XMODEM
- XMODEM 1K
- YMODEM
- YMODEM-G
- CompuServe QuickB protocol.
- Background communications capabilities.
- The ability to run simultaneous communications
sessions.
- Extensive on-line help facility.
- User-defined hot keys.
LogiCOMM 2.20S requires an 80286 or 80386 based computer
running IBM's Operating System 2 (OS/2). In addition, the
OS/2 device driver COM01.SYS or COM02.SYS must be installed
in the CONFIG.SYS file. LogiCOMM will only run in protected
mode: it does not run in the DOS 3.x compatibility box, or
under MSDOS. LogiCOMM is a text-based application, and so
will not make use of the graphical interface provided by the
Presentation Manager (PM). It can, however, be run as is
under the PM with no problems, so long as video popups are
disabled.
HEX DISPLAY
This program shows a couple of things. One is the use of the DosAllocHuge
API call. This is one of the things that OS/2 does very well. OS/2 supports
virtual memory which means that you can use more memory that you have install
in the computer. When all of the Ram is used then OS/2 goes swapping to the
disk, so you have almost unlimited memory (up to the free space on your
disk).
I'm including the source code for the program, but I can not include the
file called : Doscalls.inc as that is a copywrited file by Microsoft. You can
very easily create the macro's in cluded in this file. I included a
version of the program that was made using the FAM API which means that it
will run both under OS/2 and DOS. The hexdisp.com file will work under both
OS/2 and DOS and the file hexdisp.exe will work under OS/2 only. Notice the
difference in size !!
OS/2 System Activity Display
----------------------------
This program shows some of the key elements of the system performance
in OS/2. It will display the total CPU usage (in percent), the largest free
RAM block (in KB), the swap file increase since IPL, the number
of spool files and the total size of all spool files.
