- Public Domain/Freeware/Shareware by Ralf Brown:
-
- The MSDOS Interrupt List
- A comprehensive listing of functions available through interrupt
- calls on IBM PCs and compatibles. Includes both documented and
- undocumented functions.
- Current version: INTER29A (release 29, 2/9/92)
- INTER29B
- INTER28C (conversion programs, 11/17/91)
-
- DVINT
- An extract of the MSDOS Interrupt List containing the DESQview
- and QEMM API calls. Updated whenever there have been significant
- additions to the DESQview/QEMM calls in the Interrupt List.
- Current version: DVINT29 (2/9/92)
-
- RBcomm
- A DESQview-aware communications program which sports seamless DSZ,
- PCZ, or PUMA/MPt integration for file transfers; ANSI/VT102, VT52,
- and AVATAR emulation (including 132 columns); speeds to 57600 bps;
- a powerful macro language; dialing directory; and more. Runs in
- 65K with DSZ, 45K without. While it works under plain DOS,
- additional features are available under DESQview.
- Current version: RBCOMM33 (v3.31 2/3/91)
-
- SPAWNO
- A replacement for the Turbo C and Microsoft C spawn..() functions
- which swaps the current program to disk, EMS, XMS, or raw extended
- memory while the spawned program executes, leaving less than 300
- bytes in memory. Also includes a variant for Turbo Pascal v4.0 or
- higher.
- Current version: SPAWNO40 (v4.0 11/17/91)
- Price: libraries free, source code $100.
-
- RBkeyswap
- Exchange left control and CapsLock keys, as well as Esc and `/~.
- Loads itself high, using just 64 bytes; needs only 128 bytes low
- if no high memory is available.
- Current version: RBKEYSWP (v2.0 6/22/91)
-
- DV-GLUE
- DESQview API bindings for Turbo C.
- Current version: DVGLUE10 (source)
- DVGLUL10 (compiled)
- DVGLU101 (update) (v1.01 8/12/88)
-
- DVKPOLL
- "Poor man's version" of TAME. Makes programs give up CPU time when
- they are in an idle loop polling the keyboard for keystrokes.
- Current version: DVKPOLL2 (6/18/88)
- Note: This program has been superceded by DVPTAME.
-
- DVPTAME
- "Not-so-poor man's version" of TAME. Tells DESQview to give the
- remainder of a time slice away if the program is in an idle loop
- polling the keyboard for keystrokes. Uses 0 bytes of memory.
- Current version: DVPTAME (6/4/91)
-
- DVdevload
- Load device drivers only in those DESQview windows which need the
- services of the driver, reducing the pre-DESQview overhead and thus
- permitting larger DESQview windows.
- Current version: DVDEVL10 (v1.00 8/11/91)
-
- SPTURBO
- An integrated environment for Borland's Sprint word processor and
- Turbo C, Turbo Pascal, Turbo Assembler, Turbo Debugger, and CDECL.
- Knows which compiler to invoke based on the file's extension, and
- can run MAKE for multi-file projects.
- Current version: SPTURBO (v2.3 Aug 1,1989)
- Note: Do not expect any updates, as I no longer use Sprint as a
- programming environment.
-
- PURGEMSG
- Delete or copy *.MSG files such that you only see those messages
- from a Fidonet echomail area which interest you.
- Current version: PURGEMSG (v1.00, 8/4/91)
-
- Note: beginning 1/1/91, all packages are distributed in PKZIP archives with
- authenticity verification. Please redistribute only the original
- archives to preserve the authenticity information. If you receive
- an archive dated after 1/1/91 which fails the authenticity check,
- you should treat it with caution. If you receive an archive which
- passes the PKZIP v1.1 check but displays an authenticity code other
- than NWS235, then the archive has been deliberately tampered with
- and should be deleted IMMEDIATELY.

- Availability:
- -------------
-
- On the ARPAnet, by standard anonymous FTP from CS.CMU.EDU [128.2.222.173].
- Change directly to directory /afs/cs.cmu.edu/user/ralf/pub with a
- single command (directories above this are not accessible via
- anonymous FTP). [DV-GLUE is not available here]
- Don't forget to set "binary" mode! If you are refused access to
- the directory, try again later; a fileserver may have been down.
-
- If connected to AFS, you can simply perform standard Unix/VMS/whatever
- directory listing and file copies from the above directory.
-
- On FIDOnet, from Soundingboard BBS 1:129/26 1-412-621-4604 14.4k HST, file req.
- My programs are kept in file area 8 for those wishing to download
- manually.
-
- Secondary Distribution Points (new releases will be available here within a
- day or so):
- ARPA: on WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL [26.2.0.74] in directories PD1:<MSDOS.x>
- where x is INFO for the Interrupt List, MODEM for RBcomm, C for
- SPAWNO, DESQview for DV-GLUE/DVKPOLL/DVPTAME, and SPRINT for
- SPTURBO. Note that you must use mode "tenex" or "type L 8" to
- successfully FTP the files. SIMTEL20 also has a number of mirror
- sites which contain all of the files but may be a few days
- behind in updates. These include wuarchive.wustl.edu [128.252.135.4]
