Fri 1-Feb-91 : Acquired the following updates to garbo.uwasa.fi
/pc/pd2
bx910201.arc A collection of Finnish BBS lists
see /pc/INDEX (or /pc/stash)
rjmfilec.zip File Name Completion by Richard Miller.
Didn't test this one. The documentation says: FILEC
is Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) utility that
reduces the number of keystrokes needed to enter
long filenames. When the HOTKEY is pressed FILEC
reads a partial filename as typed by the user and
attempts to complete the filename by seaching
the appropriate directory. The completed filename
is then pasted by FILEC, as if the user had typed
it.
see /pc/INDEX
ssearch4.zip Supersearch file and text finder by Thomas Price.
Even with the many other file finders around, this
one is worth a look because of its text finding
facility.
see /pc/INDEX
vram386.zip Expanded, extended etc memory management for 386. A
very useful and interesting concept. Unfortunately
prohibitively difficult to figure out and configure
individually. But perhaps you'll have a better
success than I did in experimenting with loading my
device drivers and tsrs into the high memory with
this system.

Mon 4-Feb-91 : Acquired the following updates to garbo.uwasa.fi
from a Compart BBS in Finland.
/pc/pd2
isl21.zip Has an .exe file been compressed with lzexe or pklite.
This is an update of an earlier version (1.2) which
only identified lzexe-compressed executables. Else
moderate, but annoyingly looses the cursor, and you
have to reset with the mode, or a similar command.
See /pc/pd2/drx101.zip for a much better alternative.
/pc/sysutil
stack26.zip Command Line Editor/Enhancer with a menu system.
This seems quite a useful addition to the collection
of MsDos command line recall programs like ced and
dos-edit. The neat trick in this one is that you can
invoke the stacked commands into a pop-up window and
recall the commands from there. You can also assign
commands to the functions keys. The usage of stack26
takes some figuring out, though. You may already
have your favorite command line editor, as I do, but
this one is definitely worth a second look. Besides,
if you know how to utilize mark-release, you can
even toggle stack26 with your customary command line
editor.
