Program Title: PC-KWICK and OTHER UTILITIES
PC-SIG version 1
PC-KWICK is a disk cache program that helps speed applications that
must repeatedly access data or overlays on disk drives. Cache utilities let
you reduce the number of redundant disk access by storing frequently-read
data in memory. With a copy of recently-used disk sectors in RAM, PC-KWICK
reduces the number of times the application program needs to read the
mechanical disk. Because of the way this program keeps track of disk
transfers, the longer you use it in any one session, the greater the
performance benefit. PC-KWICK automatically allocates memory for itself
leaving 360K bytes for your applications. It takes up the memory over 360K
that is not used by DOS or your other memory-resident programs. This disk
cache program is designed to support diskettes and hard disks on IBM PCs,
XTs, and ATs, as well as laptops, PS/2s, and 386 systems using DOS 2.0
through 3.3.
EDICOM-12 is designed to convert the DOS of the PC to a 'Menu Driven'
system, to increase the value of your PC to you, and to improve your
productivity. This program is designed to solve these problems in an
integrated manner. Furthermore, it demonstrates how fast your PC can
'TYPE.' Please also notice that the average response time of EDICOM-12 is
0.3 second. It can increase your productivity because it facilitates the
process of command entry, a major part of your effort in using your
computer. The EDICOM-12 DOS Command Processor/Manager features recall of
the last 12 commands, including parameters/; the ability to edit and
reissue previous commands; an enhanced line editor/; single keys to invoke
commands; utilities to find files, page through text files, and prevent
accidently overwriting existing files; and on-line help and tutorials. It
has two modes of operation, one for new users and one for experienced
users.
If you want a quick and organized way to reconfigure your AUTOEXEC.BAT
and CONFIG.SYS files, then RECONFIG is a utility you will find very useful.
RECONFIG is a batch file that automatically changes these files for
alternative computer set-ups, and then reboots your computer. No longer
will you have to constantly edit these files every time that you want to
change your computer configuration. RECONFIG obtains the alternative
computer configurations from a subdirectory containing files written by you
or another user. Thus the amount of separate configurations that RECONFIG
can handle is only limited by disk space. You can include as many
configurations as you need, either for yourself or for each person who uses
the computer.
COMPRESS is a data compression routine for text files. It can only
handle one file at a time. This program also comes with its source code.
COMPRESS works not only under MS DOS, but also under VMS and various UNIX
machines as well.
Usage: DOS/System Utilities
System Requirements: 64K memory and one disk drive (PC-KWICK requires at
least 360K memory to function properly).
How to Start: Read the documentaton for each of the programs before
running them. Type the name of the file you want to run. For example, if
you wanted to run PC-KWICK you would type: SHAREPCK (press enter).
Suggested Registration: Various amounts ranging from $5.00 to $26.00.
