Users who previously had problems with serial line overruns will find
this release of particular interest. The "handshake slow" mode has
been improved.
As of the previous release, DSZ can handle baud rates as high as
115,200.

FDRAW22A.ZIP Flowdraw: Draw flow/system/electric charts 1/2
FDRAW22B.ZIP Flowdraw: Draw flow/system/electric charts 2/2
FLODRAW is a flowchart drawing program that prints full page black
and white diagrams. It will help you draw diagrams like flowcharts,
system diagrams, electrical schematics, and organization charts.
The Dec. '90 release of Flodraw 2.2 adds "laserjet" capabilities and
expands the library files to include electronic symbols, LAN symbols
and improves the methods for creating and using symbols libraries
created by the end-user.
A little practice (I've seen users become comfortable in less than
30 minutes) will enable a person to output or modify flow charts faster
than the printer can produce them. The ease with which you can
manipulate charts makes them a tool instead of a tedious adjunct to the
main task.
When you register the package, the author makes the uncompiled
libraries available, along with an excellent manual.

The program was written by Frank R. Brandon, but as he does not have
network or email access, I am submitting it for him. It is 'freeware':
anyone can give away copies as long as they do not charge for the
copies and as long as they give all the distribution files in
unmodified form.

HYCLASS.ZIP Hypertexed LC class &computer-related material
"Hyclass" (version 1.0) is a memory resident and hot-key accessible
hypertext program that can be run from any 8088 PC or above. Almost all
files in this network are clean ASCII text files. Hyclass may be
accessed while the user is working in other programs.
The subject matter of this hypertext network would primarily concern
catalog librarians in need of easy access to the Library of Congress
(LC) classifications, or "call numbers," assigned to computer- and
software-related materials of all kinds. (Program written by Clifford
Urr)

>CLICK10.ZIP Free keyboard click program with asm source.
I received a few messages pointing out that the click this program
produces is hardly audible on fast computers. I knew this was going to
be a problem, but I don't know enough assembler to devise a
clockspeed-independent delay routine.
For those who do not have an assembler, you could try to patch the
binary CLICK.COM (e.g. using debug); the word (2 bytes) at offset 3Fh
determines the duration and therefore the volume of the click. It may
be better to search for the byte sequence B9 28 00, and change the 28
00 into something that works better for you (I'm not entirely sure
about the 3Fh offset).
I only have an 8 MHz 8088, so I never had a need to make the program
speed independent. Anyone who can is encouraged to do so (please send
me a copy, or better yet, post it).
Good luck.

Received direct from Painless Accounting, ZIPped and uploaded to SIMTEL20:

PEP.ZIP Painless Event Processor (program scheduler)
PEP is a TSR that watches the real-time clock to trigger an event. An
event is a series of keystrokes that can be entered to run a program or
a series of programs. PEP feeds the event to the system at the
scheduled time(s).

Subject: Rand editor for dos & os/2
I have uploaded a new revision of my port of the "Rand" editor" e2 to
Dos / OS-2. ( PD1:<MSDOS.EDITOR>E2-V321.ZIP )
For those not familiar with this editor, here is a brief description.
e2 is a multiple text window editor. It can handle up to 9 files
simultaneously and allows the screen to be split horizontally or
vertically (or both). It runs under both Dos and OS/2.
It has:
* Powerful block delete/insert/move (within and between files)
* Search and replace (with or without regular expressions)
* Last edit memory
* Ability to pipe text through (well-behaved) external commands and
back to the file
* Center, justify and fill filters
* N line mode for OS/2 only (N > 25)
* Auto wrap or horizontal scroll screen modes
* Large file capability
* Auto backup of last version
* Temporary record of all lines changed/deleted/moved (for recovery)
* Idiosyncratic keystokes (remappable to some extent)
* Lots of thrashing by staff & students here :-)
It hasn't
* Context sensitive help
* Mouse support
* Pretty colours
* Maintenance
* A price tag
Hope someone finds it useful.
