The list is now availabe from us as 16213 Jan 8 14:14 garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/pd2/author13.zip The list now contains 89 authors including an updated email address for PKWARE. The number of the authors on the list has been steadily growing, but not quite at the rate I had hoped for. The problem, you see, is that the users of the MsDos FTP archives often wish to contact the authors, and it would be nice to have up-to-date information in one place in a fairly standard format. General information to the authors ---------------------------------- If you are an MsDos utility PD or SW author who wishes to get included on this list you are most welcome email me with the full information. Please note that your program(s) should be reasonably well established and must be non-trivial to merit an inclusion on this list. You must have a sufficiently stable email address that is reachable on or from InterNet. For example authors without an InterNet address but with a Compuserve address are reachable from InterNet. You can send me email from Compuserve by applying send to ">INTERNET:ts@uwasa.fi". Your program should preferably fall within the eligible garbo.uwasa.fi MsDos PD & SW categories. In practice this means that the addresses of the authors of (solely) recreational games are not solicited. I am hoping that someone else would take it upon him/herself to compile a similar list for games and/or Windows authors. We naturally hope that you will keep us up to date about the updates of your program if it is on garbo.uwasa.fi archives. This is not, however, a precondition for the inclusion of your information. The file garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/UPLOAD.INF has information on uploading to our MsDos FTP archives. If you wish to have it and you do not know how to go about getting it, you are most welcome to email me for further informatiuon. If you for some reason should later wish your name to be removed from this list, please just let me know then. On the information to be entered -------------------------------- - Please fill in. That way the possibility of me making errors is diminished. - This is above all an address list. Therefore the "Program:" line should have your major or preferred product including a suitable description in a manner that does not exceed column 68 on the single line reserved for this purpose. (Thus only one line). - Yet, if possible, be specific about your product. Rather than just stating e.g. Program: GISMO you might want to state Program: GISMO Global International Simulator MOdelling utilities - When you kindly fill this in for me, please do not use tabs, and start from column 13 as the ruler indicates. - Fill in just one "sheet". Do not send in several. If you have many products, please choose. - If you are correcting or changing an entry I already have, please be sure to fill in all the items, nevertheless. Not just the changed one. - I have to retain full rights to choose and edit the submitted entries. --------------------- please cut here ------------------------------ 3456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 12345678 Key: Author: Program: Company: Email: Address: Voice: BBS: Fax: Other info: --------------------- please cut here ------------------------------ An example Key: Derr, James (The key is just for sorting) Author: James (Jim) Derr Program: SHEZ Compression Companion Company: California Software Design Email: 76266.2634@compuserve.com Address: P.O.

It is now 31255 Jan 8 21:50 garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/ts/tsqed17.zip LONGDATE.QMA "Date with month fully as text". The new addition, LONGDATE.QMA macro, enters dates for you like Fri 8-January-1993. In other words it gives the month in full text format (instead of a plain number). This macro automatically omits the leading zero if the day is from 01 to 09. SYNCH.QMA "Scroll two windows in synch": Corrected a minor typo in SYNCH.QMA documentation. (The synch macro scrolls text up and down in two windows in synchronization). ASCII.QMA "Load ascii table file". The standard key for my macros is Alt-5, with some macros also using Alt-4 and Alt-6. ASCII.QMA loads a full ascii table (from a c:\qed directory) is you press Alt-5. I added a parallel macro on the Alt-4 key to first copy the ascii table to ramdisk so that you won't accidentally change the original. The other alternative would be to make the original a read-only file. PAGE.QMA "Move cursor up/down by one page" is a simple new macro which moves the cursor up or down by 50, 55 or 60 lines. garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/ts/tsqed17.zip QEdit utilities by Timo Salmi Filename Comment Date Time -------- -------------------------------- ---- ---- ASCII.QMA Load ascii table file 01-08-93 16:58:06 ASCII.TXT Ascii table file 09-29-91 19:33:08 BOXTOASC.QMA Box drawing chars to 7-bit ascii 03-28-92 17:43:08 CRYPT.QMA En/decrypt the current file 03-28-92 17:45:44 DATE.QMA Date with month as three letters 01-08-93 18:53:22 FILE_ID.DIZ Brief characterization of TSQED 01-08-93 19:46:16 LINSOLVE.QMA Solve the LP problem in the file 12-26-91 14:00:02 LONGDATE.QMA Date with month fully as text 01-08-93 18:50:46 NOSAVE.QMA Turn the save key off 12-26-91 11:52:06 PAGE.QMA Move cursor up/down by one page 01-08-93 19:28:46 PASCAL.QMA Compile and analyze a TP program 09-23-92 06:34:22 QEDTS.HLP Help screen for qedtsh.key 09-14-91 16:32:56 QEDTSH.KEY A key definition file, HD-vers 08-03-92 06:42:24 QMACS.BAT Compile all tsqed macros 01-08-93 19:35:44 QUOTE.QMA Quote mail messages with > 12-26-91 11:52:24 ROT13.QMA Rotate/unrotate a text block 03-28-92 18:33:22 SAVE.QMA Turn the save key back on 12-26-91 11:52:34 SESSION.QMA Clean news session capture files 12-26-91 11:52:46 SPELL.QMA Spell-check the current file 12-26-91 14:39:06 SYNCH.QMA Scroll two windows in synch 08-28-92 23:39:54 TOASC.QMA Scandinavian chars to 7bit ascii 12-26-91 11:53:04 TOIBM.QMA 7bit ascii to Scandinavian chars 12-26-91 11:53:20 TSPROG.INF List of PD programs from T.Salmi 12-26-92 18:39:08 TSQED.INF Document (a readme) 01-08-93 19:49:02 TSQED.NWS News announcements about tsqed 01-08-93 19:50:24 VAASA.INF Info: Finland, Vaasa, U of Vaasa 08-05-92 11:12:44 ---- ------ ------ ----- 0026 66162 28496 57% "If you do not know how to go about getting this material, users are welcome to email me for the prerecorded garbo.uwasa.fi instructions (long, circa 29Kb).
