[comp.lang.pascal] Technojock's Turbo Toolkit V6.0

Conrad.Bullock@comp.vuw.ac.nz (Conrad Bullock) (04/08/91)

Is the Technojock's Turbo Toolkit V6.0 available to ftp or download
from anywhere? I would like to evaluate it - I am a registered owner
of version 5 of the toolkit, and since the upgrade price is a bit
steep, I'd like to check it out first.  I take it that the toolkit
is still shareware - or it gone to a fully commercial product?

The Toolkit can be downloaded from a board in Oregon.  The number, from the
people at Technojock--I haven't actually downloaded the stuff yet, is
503/747-7636.  Connections at 9600 & 2400 baud are supported.  I'm not
aware of any ftp sites, but if someone in Oregon wants to download it and post 
it to simtel I'm sure it would be appreciated.

I'm told that the main feature of the code is that it is both faster and 
smaller than OP from TurboPower; its scope is however, more limited.  
Registration is ~$70; the package is still shareware.  

Current issues of PC Techniques and Programmer's Journal have reviews, the 
latter rather shorter than the former.

I forgot one vital piece of information for anyone wanting to download this:

There are four files with a total size of around half a megabyte.

    If someone decides to get this package ( I don't have access to a
 MODEM :- ( ) please upload it to simtel or send me a copy!  I'd like to see
if the OOL is worth using.

    I think you can count on a lot of people interested in being able to
FTP the latest Technojock's Turbo Toolkit. If someone does get it, please
let people know so we can see about getting it available on the net.

--- Thanks muchly...

	It's at wuarchive.wustl.edu, in the directory mirrors/msdos/turbopas.
I just realized that I don't know if this is the latest version - perhaps
someone can check this? There are 4 files named tot*.zip.  Someone earlier
posted that they are also available at 129.100.22.100, but I can't reach that
site via ftp.  If the version at wuarchive is old, perhaps someone who can
reach the other site can copy it to wuarchive...
