CONTENTS OF VOLUME #7 This volume developed fast and slow. The material came in fast but I had the newsletter to get out so it was slow. However, you will see some new names this time and some original ideas. We have a excellent start with our disks and it is easier to program with such help. But don't slow down. Keep sending those programs. If we keep it up, the day will come when most any module we need will be available FREE. Then programing will be just a logical excerise and not a coding drag. 1. This first group is the Dr.Bowles DataBase seed program that he used in his classes. It is a frame to which a expanded data base can be built. I have a special interest in data bases and I am glad that Dr.Bowles donated this to Public Domain. The one who gets this converted to Pascal/Z will win a free disk full of software and the gratitude of everyone else.

So he reworked things a bit. Now he has as much space as he wants. That means, of course, a different SYSGEN. So this group of programs are all about how to do that. SGEN.COM SGEN.MAC MACROZ.MAC CLIB.MAC SGEN.DOC 3. Gene Duncan, of Palo Alto-Ca, likes to do orginal work and has donated the following programs. His address is listed in Newsletter #5 and would appreciate any feedback that you might want to pass on to him. It'll give him an idea of how he is doing. The BSORT group is a sort program that is fast and can't be fooled. He gives some background in the program so be sure to check that program. The PGLST group is a print format program that will save paper. It reads a text file of fixed or variable length character records, each record ending with a CR and LF, and arranges them on a print page in columns. I added the data file W3UA to show you how it works, nice utility. BSORT.ASM BSORT.COM BSORT.NOT PGLST.PAS PGLST.COM PGLST.NOT W3UA.LIB
