PROGRAMS AND LIBRARIES BY JAMES W. BIRDSALL
04/11/93
EMSIF 2.31
EMSIF provides a high-level interface to LIM EMS control
functions for common operations such as allocating, mapping, and
freeing EMS, and copying data to and from EMS. The interface has
been made independent of the EMS version implemented by the
driver as far as possible, so that parameters and returned data
are always in the same format, but the EMS call most appropriate
to the EMS version implemented by the driver is used.
EMSIF supports the Lotus-Intel-Microsoft (LIM) Expanded Memory
Specification (EMS) versions 3.0, 3.2, and 4.0; tiny, small,
medium, compact, large, and huge memory models; any version of
Turbo C, Turbo C++, or Borland C++, in both C and C++ modes, and
Microsoft C 6.00 and above. EMSIF has been tested with Borland
C++ 2.0, Turbo C 2.0, and Microsoft C 6.00A in all of the
supported memory models. EMSIF should work with earlier versions
of Microsoft C and any other MS-DOS C compiler that 1) uses
compatible parameter passing and return methods and 2) can use
standard-format libraries.
Shareware. Free for private use; you must register only if you
wish to distribute programs using EMSIF.
XMSIF 1.42
XMSIF provides a high-level interface to XMS control functions
for common operations such as allocating and freeing XMS
extended memory blocks (EMBs) and upper memory blocks (UMBs),
and copying data to and from EMBs. A raw interface to the driver
has been included to allow more convenient access to driver
functions not otherwise supported.
XMSIF supports the Microsoft eXtended Memory Specification (XMS)
version 2.0 and higher; tiny, small, medium, compact, large, and
huge memory models; any version of Turbo C, Turbo C++, or
Borland C++, in both C and C++ modes, Microsoft C 6.00/A and
Microsoft C/C++ 7.0. XMSIF has been tested with Borland C++ 2.0,
Turbo C 2.0, Microsoft C 6.00A, and Microsoft C/C++ 7.0, in all
of the supported memory models. XMSIF should work with earlier
versions of Microsoft C and any other MS-DOS C compiler that 1)
uses compatible parameter passing and return methods and 2) can
use standard-format libraries.
Shareware. Free for private use; you must register only if you
wish to distribute programs using XMSIF.
TRACKMEM 1.0
TRACKMEM is a program which helps you find out how much memory
other programs use. It always tracks conventional DOS memory
usage, and it detects the presence of expanded (EMS) and/or
extended (XMS only) memory in the system and sets itself up to
track usage of whichever types are present. TRACKMEM can also
provide a continuous display of memory usage on a secondary
monitor.
TRACKMEM requires DOS version 3.0 or better, and uses only about
2.5K of conventional memory (no EMS or XMS required).
Shareware.
THE CHIARO SUITE 1.0
The Chiaro Suite is a group of image analysis programs
supporting GIF, IMG, JFIF, PCX, PBM/PGM/PPM, SunRaster, Targa,
XBM, and BMP files. At present, only the GIF format is
extensively supported, but greater support and additional
formats are in the works.
CHILS - produces a quick listing of files of all the formats
above, including image size, colors, etc. Allows listing
of files selected by type, image size, colors, and/or
filesize.
GIFCHECK - completely verifies GIF files. If a file passes
GIFCHECK, it is viewable.
GIFSTRIP - removes trailing junk characters frequently found on
GIF files. Save disk space! Also removes leading junk
found on files improperly transferred from Macs.
Shareware.
The Chiaro Suite is also available for machines running the Unix
operating system.
RAMLIGHT 1.0
RAMLIGHT is a TSR which provides an activity indicator for
ramdisks in the form of a blinking rectangle in the upper right
corner of the screen. Whenever any access is made to a drive
that is being monitored, whatever is currently in that position
is replaced with a bright white rectangle; approximately
one-tenth of a second later, the previous contents are restored.
Each access resets the timer, so if additional accesses are made
while the white rectangle is on the screen, it will not be
removed until one-tenth of a second after the last access.
RAMLIGHT requires DOS version 2.0 or better. It uses about 11K
of conventional memory while installing itself; when resident,
it requires 848 bytes of conventional memory when monitoring one
drive, and an additional 48 bytes for each additional drive
monitored.
Freeware.
