The MSDOS Interrupt List
|
||
|
|
A comprehensive listing of nearly 6400 functions available through
|
||
|
|
interrupt calls on IBM PCs and compatibles. Includes both
|
||
|
|
documented and undocumented functions.
|
||
|
|
Current version: INTER42A (release 42, 8/7/94)
|
||
|
|
INTER42B
|
||
|
|
INTER42C
|
||
|
|
INTER42D (conversion and utility programs)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DVINT
|
||
|
|
An extract of the MSDOS Interrupt List containing the DESQview
|
||
|
|
and QEMM API calls. Updated whenever there have been significant
|
||
|
|
additions to the DESQview/QEMM calls in the Interrupt List.
|
||
|
|
Current version: DVINT40 (4/3/94)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RBcomm
|
||
|
|
A DESQview-aware communications program which sports seamless DSZ,
|
||
|
|
PCZ, or PUMA/MPt integration for file transfers; ANSI/VT102, VT52,
|
||
|
|
and AVATAR emulation (including 132 columns); speeds to 115200 bps;
|
||
|
|
a powerful macro language; dialing directory; ANSI music; and
|
||
|
|
more. Runs in 65K with DSZ, 46K without. While it works under
|
||
|
|
plain DOS, additional features are available under DESQview.
|
||
|
|
Current version: RBCOM341 (v3.41 1/10/93)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SPAWNO
|
||
|
|
A replacement for the Turbo C and Microsoft C spawn..() functions
|
||
|
|
which swaps the current program to disk, EMS, XMS, or raw extended
|
||
|
|
memory while the spawned program executes, leaving less than 300
|
||
|
|
bytes in memory. Also includes a variant for Turbo Pascal v4.0 or
|
||
|
|
higher.
|
||
|
|
Current version: SPWNO413 (v4.13 12/12/92)
|
||
|
|
Price: libraries free, full source code $100.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RBkeyswap
|
||
|
|
Exchange left control and CapsLock keys, as well as Esc and `/~.
|
||
|
|
Loads itself high, using just 64 bytes; needs only 128 bytes low
|
||
|
|
if no high memory is available.
|
||
|
|
Current version: RBKEYSWP (v2.0 6/22/91; v3.0 included in AMISLIB)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AMISLIB
|
||
|
|
Public Domain library (with full source code and five sample TSRs)
|
||
|
|
for creating self-highloading TSRs which may be unloaded in any
|
||
|
|
order. Up to 256 TSRs created with AMISLIB may be installed
|
||
|
|
simultaneously, and TSRs can be as small as 128 bytes resident,
|
||
|
|
1.4K on disk. One of the sample TSRs is a popup which accesses
|
||
|
|
DOS.
|
||
|
|
Current version: AMISL091 (v0.91 10/16/92)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DV-GLUE
|
||
|
|
DESQview API bindings for Turbo C.
|
||
|
|
Current version: DVGLUE10 (source)
|
||
|
|
DVGLUL10 (compiled)
|
||
|
|
DVGLU101 (update) (v1.01 8/12/88)
|
||
|
|
Note: a very early beta of the next release is available on
|
||
|
|
FTP.CS.CMU.EDU and SoundingBoard (1/3/93)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DVKPOLL
|
||
|
|
"Poor man's version" of TAME. Makes programs give up CPU time when
|
||
|
|
they are in an idle loop polling the keyboard for keystrokes.
|
||
|
|
Current version: DVKPOLL2 (6/18/88)
|
||
|
|
Note: This program has been superseded by DVPTAME.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DVPTAME
|
||
|
|
"Not-so-poor man's version" of TAME. Tells DESQview to give the
|
||
|
|
remainder of a time slice away if the program is in an idle loop
|
||
|
|
polling the keyboard for keystrokes. Uses 0 bytes of memory.
|
||
|
|
Current version: DVPTAME (6/4/91)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DVdevload
|
||
|
|
Load device drivers only in those DESQview windows which need the
|
||
|
|
services of the driver, reducing the pre-DESQview overhead and thus
|
||
|
|
permitting larger DESQview windows.
|
||
|
|
Current version: DVDEVL12 (v1.20 1/3/93)
|
||
|
|
Note: as of DESQview 2.40, Quarterdeck's DEVICE.COM is able to install
|
||
|
|
drivers into the device chain in the same manner as DVdevload;
|
||
|
|
however, DEVICE uses eight times as much memory as DVdevload and
|
||
|
|
has a serious interaction with 4DOS/NDOS that can lead to system
|
||
|
|
crashes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RBspeed
|
||
|
|
Switch the CPU speed of an Intel Pentium motherboard using the
|
||
|
|
"Neptune" chipset. Public Domain.
|
||
|
|
Current version: RBSPEED1 (v1.00 9/8/94)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SPTURBO
|
||
|
|
An integrated environment for Borland's Sprint word processor and
|
||
|
|
Turbo C, Turbo Pascal, Turbo Assembler, Turbo Debugger, and CDECL.
|
||
|
|
Knows which compiler to invoke based on the file's extension, and
|
||
|
|
can run MAKE for multi-file projects.
|
||
|
|
Current version: SPTURBO (v2.3 Aug 1,1989)
|
||
|
|
Note: Do not expect any updates, as I no longer use Sprint as a
|
||
|
|
programming environment.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PURGEMSG
|
||
|
|
Delete or copy *.MSG files such that you only see those messages
|
||
|
|
from a Fidonet echomail area which interest you.
|
||
|
|
Current version: PURGEMSG (v1.00, 8/4/91)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: beginning 1/1/91, all packages are distributed in PKZIP archives with
|
||
|
|
authenticity verification (v1.1 before 4/1/93, v2.0 after). Please
|
||
|
|
redistribute only the original archives to preserve the authenticity
|
||
|
|
information. If you receive an archive dated after 1/1/91 which fails
|
||
|
|
the authenticity check, you should treat it with caution. If you
|
||
|
|
receive an archive which passes the PKZIP check but displays an
|
||
|
|
authenticity code other than NWS235, then the archive has been
|
||
|
|
deliberately tampered with and should be deleted IMMEDIATELY.

|
|
||
|
|
On the Internet, by standard anonymous FTP from FTP.CS.CMU.EDU [128.2.206.173].
|
||
|
|
Change directly to directory /afs/cs.cmu.edu/user/ralf/pub with a
|
||
|
|
single command (directories above this are not accessible via
|
||
|
|
anonymous FTP). [DV-GLUE is not available here]
|
||
|
|
Don't forget to set "binary" mode! If you are refused access to
|
||
|
|
the directory, try again later; a fileserver may have been down.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If connected to AFS, you can simply perform standard Unix/VMS/whatever
|
||
|
|
directory listing and file copies from the above directory.
