[comp.lang.pascal] Helpful Turbo Utilities

bub@rlgvax.UUCP ( Mongo Mauler) (05/06/87)

	I am very interested in obtaining public domain Turbo
	Pascal utilities (and thier sources).  There doesn't
	seem to be such a beast on the net here.  Do any of
	my fellow TP users maintain such things that you could
	e-mail me?  Barring that, do any of you have knowledge
	of inexpensive sources for Turbo Pascal Utilities/Games/
	Applications/etc?

	Help will be greatly appreciated!  Many thanks.

I would recommend that you join PC-SIG.  The $39 membership includes shipment
of any five disks from their vast collection of PD software.  At last count,
there were 10+ disks full of Turbo Pascal utilities and sources.  To join,
call 1-800-245-6717 and give them your Visa or MC card number.  Or you could
write them at 1030D East Duane Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA  94086.

Other than being a satisfied member, I have no connection with PC-SIG.

I belong to:
    TURBO S.I.X.
    P.O. Box 8373
    Waco, Texas 76710
    817-753-2182

This is a group for Turbo Pascal  Software  Exchange.  They have over 50 discs
(at $6 each  for  members,  $7.50  for  non-members)  so  far,  in  categories
including System Level Programs,  Personal/Home  Applications,  Communications
Programs, Games, Graphics, Scientific and Engineering,  Business.  If I recall
correctly,  it cost me $20 for a one year  membership.  I have bought  about a
dozen disks so far.  Nearly  everything  is Public Domain Source Code.  I have
benefited greatly from several items so far (particularly those that have kept
me from  "re-inventing the wheel"), and it is great productivity to begin with
someone  elses  code,  learn  different  techniques,  and have the  ability to
"improve" as I deem necessary.

I have no involvement with TURBO S.I.X., except as a general member, pleased
to pay only the cost of a disc for much software.
