Wed 6-12-89: I have updated my programs BIGCURS and BIGNCURS
altering the cursor into a block to make it better visible. Handy
for laptops. The programs now can take a numerical parameter to
adjust the starting scanline. This makes the program better
adjustable to different video adapters. Furthermore, Erik Jacobsen
(erja@daimi.dk) from the Computer Science Department of Aarhus
University pointed out to me that BIGCURS may interfere with other
resident programs by stealing the timer interrupt, and kindly
provided me with a solution to avoid this snag. Thanks Erik.
I have also programmed FILES.EXE giving file statistics of a
device in the following type of format (this is for my ramdisk):
Type Count Size Allocation Efficiency
1 419 512 81.84
COM 4 13473 13696 98.37
EXE 3 106212 106368 99.85
TPU 1 15536 15616 99.49
Total D: 9 135640 136192 99.59
The information can be sorted by any of the fields.
These programs are included in my fourth utilities collection
upgraded now to be /pc/ts/tsutld13.arc. Available by anonymous ftp
as usual.
