[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] VCPIMAP memory mapper SHOWF236 disk mapper uploaded to SIMTEL20

I have uploaded to SIMTEL20:

pd1:<msdos.sysutl>
VCPIMAP.ZIP     Display physical memory map under VCPI

VCPI is a recent standard for 386/486 EMS emulators such as Quarterdeck's
QEMM, Compaq's CEMM, Hewlett-Packard's HPEMM and Qualitas' 386^Max.
This program is for those curious about how these programs manage
memory: it will display a map of the physical allocations to the
logical first megabyte.  Turbo Pascal source included.  Public domain.


pd1:<msdos.dskutl>
SHOWF236.ZIP    Intuitive display of FAT & dir structure

SHOWFAT displays a map of a DOS disk at the cluster level using
character graphics.  It's easy to see file fragmentation, identify
which file owns a cluster by number, dump the contents of any cluster
on the disk in hex or ascii, and navigate through the disk physically
or logically.  Nicer display than Norton or Mace.  Updated to support
large DOS 4 disks.


Both are written by me.  SHOWFAT is shareware, VCPIMAP is PD.

Unfortunately, it crashes certain systems.  Please use it with extreme care
if you've got version 2.36.  When I find the problem, I'll be sending a fix
to Simtel20, and in the meantime have asked that SHOWF236.ZIP be removed.
