ADVERTISEMENT In brief, my shareware deal is this: If you register one of my programs, you get in return all the most recent updates of all the programs in my collection, except for my retail software. There are only a few retail items, and they carry a very modest additional charge. Add these charges, and you get everything. This is a deal that can't be beat in today's shareware market. You're looking at nearly a megabyte of original work covering a wide range; and you can have it all for just $40.00 (4 retail programs plus the basic $20 shareware charge). For details see below. Mail your order today!! - Bob Eyer SHAREWARE NOTICE and TERMS The content of this archive is shareware: if you intend to use it longer than a 30-day trial period, you must register with the author. In return for your registration you will receive the most recent updates of the items mentioned in the list below (excepting items marked with asterisk). This benefit far exceeds the value of the specific program(s) you are registering. More important you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you're supporting the shareware movement. Simply purchase a money order from your bank in the amount of $20 US made out to Bob Eyer and send with your return address to: Bob Eyer 1100 Bloor Street West Suite 16 Toronto, Canada M6H 1M8 Please mention in your accompanying note whether you wish 5.25" or 3.5" diskette format. Do not send checks. Checks cause problems for long-distance transactions which make them unsuitable for small purchases by mail order. Only cash or money orders will be accepted. Improper or incomplete orders will be returned to the sender unfilled. Enquiries may be placed by writing directly to the author via Easyplex at Compuserve [73230,2620], or by mail to the address above. Registered users are always assured of a response, and of tech support related to these programs, if needed. The author is amenable to requests for custom versions of any of these works; terms subject to negotiation. Ordering Asterisked Programs ---------------------------- Certain items are not 'shareware' but are, enhanced retail versions. These versions are marked by asterisk, and are separately priced, usually at $5 each. It is not practical for me to fill orders for items at only $5; so I require shareware registration ($20) as part of the order. For example, to order HOSP, you must send $25 (($20 shareware pgms + $5 HOSP). Warranty and Disclaimer: ----------------------- The author, Bob Eyer, of this and all items below guarantees the physical integrity of the diskette covering the points above, and will replace free of charge, if it is received defective. However, in no case will the author be responsible for any damages due to loss of data or any other reason. In no event does the author's liability for any damages exceed the price paid for the buyer's order of this software, regardless of the form of the claim. The person using the software bears all risk as to the quality and performance of the software. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAMS ----------------------- * HOSP 2.3c - retail $5.00 (in addition to shareware registration) --------- HOSP (HOST Plus) provides a simple BBS using the most recent version of HOST as its core system, but with added optional features triggerable by simple file detection. HOSP has a DOOR option and the package includes a STOP program permitting the user to design a single batch file to manage any number of HOSP doors and corresponding menus. Has ringback, file transfer including FMS option (option to effect file transfer from/to one file list covering many directories), mail, chat, userlog, sysop shell, bulletins, immediate file downloading, color prompts, more. Unique to HOSP is fast userfile/password logon, a complete information services subsystem, switched private file transfer, and many other additional features. Adjustable word wrap in message entry and chat, and automatic logging of chat to disk, providing a convenient private messaging system, fixes echo logic bug that caused remote hangs when run from certain modems. New: HOSP now offers automatic logging of downloading activity to a log file specially formatted for running summaries. HOSP orders now include the SDL interpretation program (see below). 47K. HOSP orders give the purchaser the right to free updates by direct electronic transfer. SDL 2.0 ------- Download statistics summariser. Operates solely on the DL.LOG output of HOSP to generate total bytes downloaded for each successful downloader. 6K. Included with HOSP orders. HOST 3.5 -------- Provides a simple BBS host for occasional use. Fully configurable, but capable of being run without any configuration at all. HOST provides ringback, file transfer, mail, chat, userlog, shell, bulletins, immediate file downloading, color prompts, user-selectable FMS operation, more. 41K in size. Caution: HOSP (see above) is the more advanced version and is the system which the author uses in debugging and adding features; HOST is merely an extract from HOSP. * ADL 2.2 - retail $5.00 (in addition to shareware registration) ------- Phone canvasser's voice dialling program (The Auto-DiaLer). Specifically designed to double or triple a phone canvasser's performance. Enhanced version of EDL in the SUTL package, providing further speed enhancements using a built-in sophisticated full-screen editor specifically tailored to the needs of phone canvassers. Has one-keystroke marking of callbacks, colour highlighting of called numbers, periodic auto-save to minimise loss of data, automatic communications port selection, setting and diagnosis, and much more. Only 26K in size, but is by far the most powerful program of its kind. With this program, you can watch a movie while you're calling 400-500 people, and spend MOST of your time watching the movie! * MG 3.3 - retail $5.00 (in addition to shareware registration) ------ Moving average graphing program. Especially designed for obtaining graphic updates on stock-market activity in practical trading environments, in which it is essential that the user get a quick graph immediately, with points of the graph directly associated with the numerical and other text information which these points represent (a feat impractical in Lotus graphics). Designed to be used with SETV in the SUTL package. 15K. FCA 3.0 ------- Memory-resident calculator with formatted displays and direct paste to text, minimum screen overlay. Many functions, including trig, factorials & combinations, binomial, Poisson, normal, and Student distributions, regression and mean & standard deviation analysis. Six mode groups. ADD accumulation area. Version 3.0 so far has one additional financial function (loan payment), but may include IRR as well. FCA is the most sophisticated calculator in the business for its size. 40K memory. ED 2.3 ------ A small full-screen editor. ADL combines this editor with sophisticated communications routines, a shell, and special callback and cursor mode functions to create a highly efficient phone canvassing program. ED itself provides an excellent replacement for DOS's EDLIN. Has alternate screen colouring, cumulative wildcard input, simple snap and switch between one file and another, automatic detection of 25, 43, or 50 line video modes, cut and paste, wordwrap, and many other features. No help needed, as all unfamiliar keys are summarised at the bottom of each screen. 20K. SPC 5.8 ------- Multidrive columnar drive report, with fairly complete description of your machine including important chips, printer, BIOS, memory, processor and coprocessor speed, multitasking, networking, complete info on communications ports and modems, as well as drives. P parameter provides to PRINT multiplexer a pause command. Includes a map of removable programs resident in RAM. Everything in a fast one-screen snapshot. 30K. DFAT 2.6 (1/25/94) -------- File fragmentation reporter, in directory format. Shows all clusters and cluster ranges for files and subdirectories in a given directory with corresponding fragments and prepares a disk summary with the percentage fragmentation injected to DOS as an error level for batch processing. Adds graphics option. 15K. PDF 1.0 ------- Partial disk defragger. Generally much faster than regular defragging programs, because it focusses only on the area of the disk needing a defrag operation. 8K. Should be used with DFAT. * PFL 1.5 - retail $5.00 (in addition to shareware registration) ------- The enhanced retail version of STR 2.8 (see FUTL below). TSR string and file paster. Injects characters through the keyboard buffer. Variable control options. Batch and Edit modes. 80 character lines. Can use all available memory to store files to be pasted. Especially useful in communications environments which lack an adequate text upload facility. Can be modified to fit your requirements. Currently supports some specialised environments, including ROSCOE (a DOS-to-mainframe communications program). 14K.
