Sun 14-Apr-91: Acquired the following files from Simtel20 to garbo,
and took a closer look at them:
/pc/binedit
beav120.zip Binary Editor And Viewer v1.20 by Peter Reilley.
This is only the second binary editor that I have
seen that I find satisfactory (the first was
fed153.zip). If you have been using MicroEmacs,
you'll feel at once at home with beav.exe. - The
display formats of beav are very flexible. - These
are hackers' tools.
/pc/dirutil
dirsiz11.zip Directory Size information v1.1 by Keith Ledbetter,
the author of the excellent SuperSonic Search Tool.
Dirsize.exe is a free program to give a list of
directory sizes eg on your harddisk, which can be
quite useful. I can't refrain mentioning here that I
have programmed practically the same utility quite
awhile ago. It is dirinfo.exe, currently in
tsutlc16.arc at the /pc/ts directory. But different
realizations of the same idea are naturally both
commonplace and welcome.
/pc/unix
fw-ls2.zip Unix-like ls list directory for MsDos and OS/2.
With the number of users and programmers with a
Unix background it is hardly surprising that
Unix-like alternatives for MsDos commands abound.
The most popular Unix rendition has been ls, and
this is yet another one. This one seems well done
and quite complete.
