Also get MSDOS.HDR from the same directory. FILDIF is a program for comparing a previous copy of PD1:FILES.IDX with a new copy. It displays the files added and deleted since you got the older index. This is useful if you are trying to maintain an archive in sync with SIMTEL20. It can generate output scripts for batch FTP process- ing. This is a C-based [MicroSoft-C or Turbo-C] program to compare the differences between two FILES.IDX files and generate a DELFILES.CMD and GETFILES.CMD. Both DELFILES and GETFILES contain the original FILES.IDX data-structure, but can be easily edited for further purposes. FILDIF is a 'slightly' changed SRCDIF - and [since its pretty 'basic' and relatively well structured] should be relatively easy portable. SIMIBM.ARC contains the latest SIMIBM.HDR and SIMIBM.IDX. SIMIBM.IDX is a comma-delimited listing of *many* of the SIMTEL20 MSDOS files, complete with a one-line description for each file. This file is suitable for importing into any database program that will accept comma- delimited imports (sometimes called MailMerge format). SIMIBM.HDR is a PC-File+ database definition header file. NODESCR.IDX contains the remainder of the SIMTEL20 MSDOS file listings for which there is currently no description. It too is in comma-delimited for- mat. --Keith Petersen Arpa: W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA Uucp: {decwrl,harvard,lll-crg,ucbvax,uunet,uw-beaver}!simtel20.arpa!w8sdz ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Nov 88 14:13:11 IST From: yaki avimor Subject: Turbo C Math Toolbox Can someone up there recommend me about good C math toolbox for the turbo C compiler? it should include routins for MATRIX hendling and linear EQ. if someone has sources to share i'll be gratefull; thanks. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Nov 88 22:27:34 GMT From: Gregory Hicks - COMFLEACT Chinhae Subject: C Math Toolbox Borland also has a Turbo Numerical Toolbox that does what you want.

Does such a program exist? No. The main reason why Roy's card didn't come with this kind of utility is that his card can't use downloadable fonts. The MG-150 and most (all?) other Hercules clones are clones of the original Hercules Graphics Card. The so-called RAM FONT feature which is what lets you download a new font to the video card is a feature of the Hercules Graphics Card Plus.

I have had this kind of trouble with 5-1/4 on a AT. I think it will be the same with 3-1/2 too because the same floppy disk controllers are capable of controlling the new 3-1/2 drives. There is a jumper named DCG (Disk Change Jumper) which when improperly configuered will mainfest as mentioned in Jacques's mail. If the jumper is toggled the problem will vanish. There will normally be 3 pins of which 2 will be shorted by hardwired jumper or plastic (user configureble) jumper. If I remember it right pins 2 and 3 will be shorted in your case. Remove the jumper and put it in 1 and 2. I hope that this is of some use. /Bala/ Bitnet: MKBALAJI @ UMSVM ------------------------------ Date: 28 November 88, 09:55:40 EST From: Subject: XXU.C I've been reading in this list about XXU.C.

These instructions included examples from VMS, UNIX and one or two others, however, not including the local system here. I have contacted the local user support team who are not sure how to send the listserv commands. Therefore: 1. Are the commands just sent embedded in MAIL messages? and 2. if not, can I access the archives via FTP initiated from this end? Thanx, MURFF.... [1) Commands are sent TO Listserv@RPICICGE or to one of the European file servers in a normal mail message. If you send the mail to RPICICGE, you may get told to use a server located in Europe. Commands should be the only text in the message. Listserv does not understand any other text, and will flush any subsequent commands following the unrecognized text. and 2) you CAN access the files at WSMR-Simtel20 by FTP from Europe, but you may not want to due to the long distance charges... gph] ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Nov 88 14:18:05 EST From: Stan McQueen Subject: FTP Problems at WSMR-Simtel20.Army.Mil Like many others, I too am having trouble with file transfers.

The compiled code goes bad when testing BX, CX, DX > for 0FFFFH (ends up with "-1"). and then: > Gad, can't BELIEVE this! What's magic about 0FFFFH? I wouldn't call it magic--it's just that 0FFFFh is the two's complement representation for -1 (given a word size of 16 bits). Your code should execute correctly, regardless of whether SYMDEB prints FFFF or -01 when it shows a disassembly. (I'm not sure offhand whether the value -01 is stored as a single byte or as a 16 bit word, but either way, the processor should treat it as 0FFFFh, since the 0FFh would get sign-extended to FFFFh.)

There are of course sometimes problems, partly from failing connections, partly from load problems on the servers and sometimes also some bugs in the TRICKLE-software. But overall I am very satisfied. A great number of problems I have seen posted, result from the fact that the network backbone are IBM machines with the famous EBCDIC characterset and PC software is AS- CII. Never the less, I was surprised to see files can be transferred as is and be still readable as ASCII on my PC (I am connected with my PC to a IBM- 3081 with the VM operating system) when downloaded as "filemode binary" via KERMIT. Mostly I try the uuencoding which, after changing all exclamation marks to vertical bars on the host, I can get them easy to my PC and they are all working fine. I think it is a great service to us in Europe. Thanks anyway.

Gregor Reich (A8411DAA @ AWIUNI11) Institute for Analytical Chemistry University of Vienna ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Nov 88 17:25 EST From: Subject: Unhooking TSR's by poking into the Storage chain In Digest #49, Ya`akov Miles asks about a version independent method of finding the location of the first DOS STORAGE BLOCK. I don't know of a way to do this, but I will check around and see if I can find anything. However, Ya`akov also makes the statement: > Note that you can "unhook" terminate and stay resident programs by > poking the word 0 into the storage block offset ds:1 This is not true! In fact, this is probably a good way to make your machine crash in strange and wonderous ways. Let me explain: In Ya`akov's example, DS is pointing to a DOS Memory Control Block (MCB), which is a 16 byte header that immediately preceeds every memory block that is allocated by DOS. DOS uses these MCB's, which effectively form a chain, to keep track of what memory is being used by what program. The structure of an MCB is as follows: * The first byte contains either an 'M' or a 'Z'. An 'M' marks the MCB as an ordinary MCB. A 'Z' marks the MCB as the last MCB of the chain. * The next word (the one at DS:1 in Ya`akov's statement above) is used to indicate what program owns the memory controlled by the MCB. It is set to the PSP value of the program that owns the memory block. It is set to zero to indicate that the block is free (ie: not in use by any program). * The next word is the size, in paragraphs (1 paragraph=16 bytes), of the controlled memory block. Note that the size of the MCB itself (1 paragraph) is not counted toward the size of the memory block. * The remaining 11 bytes of the MCB are currently unused by DOS. Most TSR's "hook" themselves in by changing one or more of the processor's interrupt vectors to point to their code instead of wherever the vectors used to point. Therefore, "unhooking" a TSR involves more that merely freeing up the memory that it uses. The interrupt vector(s) must be restored also. If the memory occupied by a TSR is marked as free (by poking a 0 into the owner word of the MCB), that memory block might be used later for something else (probably to make a copy of the environment block for some program). When it is reused, the interrupt handler (which is what most TSR's really are) part of the TSR code is very likely to be overwritten. The next time that interrupt occurs, it is almost certain that the machine will lock up and die.

I'm looking for a game, on PC or Mac, that can be configured as follows: The purpose of the game is to achieve the fastest elapsed time around the world, following the course of the Whitbread Round the World Race, to be used by the Sail Ireland venture. It should be commercial. In every respect, the weather, the yacht performance, the ocean currents and incidence of icebergs etc, should be as realistic as possible. At the beginning of each play, you start with a position and orientation of the yacht. This is displayed on a map on the screen, the Latitude and Longitude of the position are also displayed. The program selects weather, which is displayed as a true direction and true strength. The player can now re-orientate the yacht, and the program then works out the new speed. For every heading, an amount is added to the elapsed time. When the player is happy with his course, he pressed an 'Accept' button, and the yacht is set for a 12 hour run at that speed and course. A new position is calculated, the track is checked to see if any waypoint lines have been crossed, 12 hours is added to the elapsed, and the loop is repeated. The controls are left and right rudder, the 'Accept' button, and a switch to toggle between zoomed-in and zoomed-out display. Please let me know if you want any more details. Thanks.

When I access DOS from a PIF file I cannot see the output. As a test I am launching the tree.com program. When executed outside of windows I can re-direct its output to a file, which tells me it is writing to stdout. My PIF file has the following settings: Program Name: TREE.COM Program Title: Tree Memory Required = 52K Desired = 0 (take all you can get) Directly Modifies Nothing Program Switch = Text Screen Exchange = Text Close Window on Exit = No When I launch TREE.PIF I get a window with a white background, and a black underline cursor zips around the screen just as if text were being dis- played, but there is no visible output. When it is finished I can select a block in the window (it all turns black), copy it to the clipboard, and look at the output with CLIPBRD.EXE or paste it into a NOTEPAD file. In other words, the output is there, I just can't see it. Is it white-on- white? I have it with and without ANSI.SYS and EGA.SYS. I took out my fancy PROMPT entry in AUTOEXEC.BAT. My normal window colors are black text on a cyan background, yet the window uses a white background. I have changed a bunch of the screen colors, with no luck. My goal is not to run TREE.COM in a window; I want to run several different DOS utilities this way. I am using TREE.COM because it happens to be a typical DOS tool. My COMMAND.PIF fails the same way, so it really can't be TREE.COM. Please email ideas, I'll summarize to the group. Gary Dunn Ft.
