[comp.org.decus] DECUS library update

bobp@tekcae.TEK.COM (Robert N. Perry (Bob)) (02/18/88)

The following are two DECUS library status reports showing new
programs available from the DECUS library courtesy of Glenn Everhart.
	To reach the DECUS library, use the address:
DECUS Program Library
219 Boston Post Road
Marlboro, Mass. 01752-1850  USA
617-480-3418
	Programs are distributed for media/copying charges that are more
or less in line with what universities charge.  This is needed because they
have to pay some fulltime staff, pay for machines & maintenance, and the
costs of catalogs, etc. Not cheap. They get partial subsidies from DEC to
help with this, so costs aren't as high as they could be. However, Columbia
charges $100/tape for Kermit, you pay $50 for PMDF, and so on; DECUS charges
are comparable. Also, SIG tapes can be obtained free from your LUG as well as
the DECUS library. 
	Many of these programs are NOT on ANY SIG tapes however. If you want
them, order from the library. You can get the programs within a few days
of ordering from DECUS; turnaround is good these days. So please do not
assume you'll get the code off a SIGtape later; you may wait awhile and
then discover it isn't there.
	(See the announcement at the end of this message re the fall 1987
RSX and VAX SIG tapes.)
	This information is provided so if you want any of these programs,
you don't have to wait for a catalog to appear.

VAX/VMS V4.5  Source Language: BASIC, C, FORTRAN 77, Assembler, etc.
FORTRAN  Keywords: Data Base Management, Graphics, Spreadsheet, 
Utilities - VMS

Abstract: AMIGA Utilities Collection 2 contains a large collection of 
utilities and programs for the AMIGA 32 bit computer.  The Amiga is an 
inexpensive machine well suited to be used as a powerful graphics 
workstation in a Digital Equipment Corporation host environment, with 
multitasking, large address space, windows, graphics, color, and more.  
Programs providing VT102 and VT640 emulation, as well as some graphics 
terminal emulators, with several protocols, are provided.  Also 
present are various public domain utilities including editors, 2D and 
3D CAD systems, drawing packages, languages, spreadsheets, and more.

This package contains items introduced for Amiga PD consumption since 
the "AMIGA Utilities Collection 1", DECUS Program No. V-SP-68, tape 
became available.  Numerous source programs make these programs 
valuable even on non-Amiga computer configurations.

Because many of the files are in .ARC form, the VMSSWEEP utility is 
provided to allow for examination of these archives online on a VAX 
running VMS.

Complete sources not included. Very many of these utilities do however
contain sources, most often in C.

11-490     TSXLIB: A FORTRAN Callable Library Implementation of EMTs 
for TSX-PLUS  Version: December 1987
Submitted by: N. A. Bourgeois, Jr., NAB Software Services, Inc., 
Albuquerque, NM Operating System: RT-11 V5.4, TSX-PLUS V6.2  Source 
Language: FORTRAN IV, MACRO-11  Software Required: FORTRAN IV or 
FORTRAN 77  Hardware Required: MMU to support TSX-PLUS  Keywords: 
FORTRAN, Libraries - RT-11

Abstract: TSXLIB is a library of FORTRAN callable routines that 
implement the TSX-PLUS system services which are unique to TSX-PLUS.  
The library has been updated to include all TSX-PLUS unique services 
through TSX-PLUS V6.2.

Like RT-11, TSX-PLUS offers the MACRO-11 programmer a number of system 
services.  These services are implemented via both the RT-11 
programmed requests (for those services common to both RT-11 and 
TSX-PLUS) and raw EMT instructions (for those unique to TSX-PLUS).  
RT-11 makes its system services available to the FORTRAN programmer 
through the system subroutine library, SYSLIB.  TSX-PLUS also honors 
the bulk of the service requests in the SYSLIB routines.  TSXLIB, 
however, makes the TSX-PLUS unique EMTs available to the FORTRAN 
programmer.

These TSX-PLUS library routines provide facilities to support 
communication lines, detached jobs, device allocating and 
deallocating, file structured device mounting and dismounting, 
communication between running programs, job privileges control, job 
status monitoring, program performance analysis, real time program 
execution, shared runtime systems, shared files, special files 
information, spooler control, subprocess control, system status 
information, communication between running programs and a terminal, 
program control of the terminal, ODT activation mode, user name 
control, windowing, and several miscellaneous EMTs.

The TSXLIB distribution kit includes the MACRO-11 source modules for 
all the routines, a user's manual in machine readable form, an 
indirect command file to build the library, and the implemented 
library.

Changes and Improvements:  Bug Fixes.

11-899     FDC; Floppy Diskette Copy  Version: 1, December 1987
Submitted by: K.F. Uhland, Scientific Micro Systems (SMS), Mountain 
View, CA Operating System: RSX-11M V4.2B  Source Language: MACRO-11  
Memory Required: 32KW  Keywords: Utilities - RSX-11

Abstract: This program reads a floppy diskette, creating an image file 
of it on the hard disk.  The image file can then be used to recreate 
on a blank floppy an exact copy of the original diskette.  The program 
is independent of floppy size (8", 5 1/4", etc.), capacity (number of 
logical blocks), format (RX01, RX02, RX03, RX50, RX33, etc.), file 
structure (ODS-1, ODS-2, DOS, RT-11, etc.), or the actual data on the 
diskette.  Any floppy that can be read by the device driver, disk 
controller, and disk drive can be copied by FDC.  In fact, an image 
file can be created of just about any random access device, provided 
space exists on the hard disk. Media to be copied are assumed to be 
free of hardware detectable errors.

Notes:  Operating systems RSX-11M V4.0 and RSX-11M-PLUS V3.0 or higher 
is required. May also run on earlier versions of these operating 
systems.

Restrictions:  Author's system uses full function executive, full 
duplex terminal driver; program may not run if less is available.

PRO-150     APFELM - Mandelbrot Set Explorer  Version: 2, December 
1987
Author: R.J. Wilden and Glenn Everhart
Operating System: P/OS  Source Language: FORTRAN 77  Keywords: 
Graphics

Abstract: APFELM displays in graphical form the so called 
Madelbrot_Set.  With the help of a 'graphic-microscope', the 
complex-plane can be scanned for nice looking pictures.

When you use the graphic-microscope, the cursor position is the origin 
of a new picture.  You can change the origin with the four Cursor-Keys 
and select a specific origin with the Select-Key.  To continue with a 
new frame, you have to press the Resume-Key.  When you intend to save 
a picture on disk, be sure to have enough space.  The disk-space used 
for GIDIS-Metafiles is enormous.

Changes and Improvements:  Added version with faster evaluation of 
pointer in Mandelbrot_Set.  Original version present intact also.

PRO-163     PROPLOT  Version: 3.1, December 1987
Submitted by: Ronald Getts, BFGoodrich R&D, Brecksville, OH Operating 
System: P/OS V2.0A  Source Language: FORTRAN 77  Memory Required: 
Standard  Hardware Required: LA50 or LVP16 (HP7475 or HP7470) if hard 
copy desired. EBO and color monitor  helpful, but not required.  
Keywords: Graphics, Plotting

Abstract: This diskette contains software developed at BFGoodrich R&D 
in Brecksville, OH, for the PRO-350.

PROPLOT does least squares curve fitting to polynomial equations, 
graphs the resulting curves on the monitor, and has provisions for 
hard copy to an LA50, LA100 or Digital Equipment Corporation (HP) two 
or six pen plotter.

PROPLOT V3.1 automatically supports color monitor and/or HP7475, 
HP7470, HP7440 or Digital Equipment Corporation LVP16 plotters, if 
present.  This provides color graphics support.

Data can be input from the keyboard or from a data file. The program 
asks the user questions regarding parameters and allows creation of 
data files for later recall.  Scaling is automatic or controlled by 
the user.

PROPLOT V3.1 supports .CTL file for repetitive re-plotting of same 
data sets.  The .CTL file contains the answers to the questions 
PROPLOT asks. See CTL.DOC for details.

Notes:  Operating system P/OS V2.0 or higher is required.

Changes and Improvements:  Control files, additional plotter support.

PRO-171     DSKDIR: Diskette Directory Utility  Version: 1, December 
1987

Submitted by: Michael Catania, Michael Catania Enterprises, Glen Cove, 
NY Operating System: P/OS V3.0  Source Language: FORTRAN 77  Memory 
Required: 77KW  Keywords: Utilities - P/OS

Abstract: The DSKDIR utility is used to store information about your 
diskettes in an orderly fashion.

If you have more than fifty diskettes with your personal files on 
them, then this utility is for you.  You can sort through the 
information by volume, file or extension.

There are two versions of the DSKDIR utility, one uses the P/OS Menu 
Facility, the other does not.  You can also install the package from 
the toolkit (installation command files are supplied).

Both versions were developed under P/OS V3.0, but they should work for 
earlier versions, although no guarantees are implied.

UX-102     KIC2  Version: 2, October 1983

Submitted by: University of California at Berkeley, through Digital 
Equipment Corp Operating System: ULTRIX/UNIX  Source Language: C  
Keywords: Artwork Editor, Graphics, Utilities - ULTRIX

Abstract: KIC2 is an interactive, two-dimensional, color graphics 
editor intended primarily for the mask level design of integrated 
circuits.  KIC2 has been designed as a powerful, inexpensive, 
user-friendly graphics editor that will run on most low to medium 
performance graphics terminals.  Data that is generated by KIC2 can be 
represented by an intermediate graphic description language, such as 
CIF (Caltech Intermediate Form) or Calma STREAM, which permits the 
data to be easily transported to other layout systems. Also, the 
geometric database used by KIC2 can be used to interface to other 
tools, such as a layout rules checking program.

Notes: This program was developed by the Computer-Aided Design Group, 
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University 
of California-Berkeley .

VAX-150     EVEPlus  Version: May 1987
Author: Terry Dow

Operating System: VAX/VMS V4.4  Source Language: VAX/TPU  Software 
Required: EVE, TPU  Keywords: Tools - Applications Development, 
Utilities - VMS

Abstract: This is an upgrade to the EVEPlus package that will extend 
the already powerful EVE editor based upon operating system VAX/VMS 
V4.X TPU (Text Processing Utility).  EVEPlus provides a number of new 
commands to EVE, but more importantly it serves as a superb example of 
how to customize EVE much in the same way the EDTINI.EDT file 
customized the EDT editor.  This specific addition adds a few new 
commands and also initiates a standard keyboard command assignment 
that should make it easier to move from one VMS system to another.  
Due to EVE's nature, refining and extending EVEPlus and the proposed 
keyboard is highly desirable, yet a forum such as DECUS is needed to 
distribute 'the keyboard'.

An internal SHIFT HELP buffer is created while the keyboard 
definitions are being made so that it is easy to see the new 
assignments by hitting the SHIFT HELP key.  A forward delete character 
is available on keypad 6, placing the character in a separate area 
than the INSERT HERE buffer.  The separate area is restored by hitting 
SHIFT INSERT.  "Delete word" deletes from the current position to the 
end/beginning of word and is kept in the same place as the forward 
delete character is saved.  A ruler is quickly inserted into text to 
aid in counting characters and/or adjusting column alignments.  Three 
profiles are defined: Text, FORTRAN, and PASCAL, (others are easily 
added) so that rulers, margins, etc., are changed together.  For 
example, FORTRAN sets the right margin to 72 and the ruler is prefixed 
with a C so if it is left in by accident it is treated as a comment.  
A "transpose last two characters command" is added to help with my 
typing impediment.  Setting left and right margins is easier by 
letting it default to the current column the cursor is in.  Writing 
out files while remaining in the editor is easier by letting it 
default to the buffer's file name, also making it easy to update the 
currently edited file without exiting.  A page command is added to 
make it easy to jump to the next form feed.  When going to a line 
number or marker EVEPlus remembers the last one that was referred to.

Notes:  Operating system VAX/VMS V4.0 or later is required along with 
TPU, (Text Processing Utility).

Changes and Improvements:  This is an upgrade to the EVEPlus package.

--------------------------------
One final note:
	The VAX Systems SIG tapes from the DECUS Fall 1987 symposium
and the RSX/IAS SIG tapes from the DECUS Fall 1987 Symposium were
placed in the mail to the DECUS Library and the DECUS National LUG
Committee today (16-Feb-1988). The Fall 1987 RSX tape occupies 58,000
blocks on one reel of tape, in either BRU or VMS Backup format. The
VAX SIG tape is a three (3) reel set at 1600 BPI (or one reel at
6250, or one TK50) and occupies around 170,000 blocks altogether.
The DECUS library and NLC already have updates to the Kermit distribution
also (120,000 blocks worth, current as of 1/14/1988).
	Contents will be reported when this status report comes back
from the DECUS library giving details.
