Hello There! Welcome to DaveWare. What is DaveWare? DaveWare is any little program that I happen to write because it's easier to spend 14 hours writing it than it is to spend 4 hours on the phone calling BBS's to see if there's one around that will do what I want to do. Below you'll find a list of the four utilities that I have done as of late and a couple that are on the list to get done when I have the time. If you see something there you'd like, or you have an interesting idea for a useful utility (anything other than another Xtree clone) then write me a note on a post card or give me a call at 408-363-1441. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PHBK 1.0 Written Oct 1990 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PHBK is a little address book program that is compatible with the data files created by PC-Magazine's CARDFILE program. You can store 999 records instead of 256 and it's not a TSR, so it doesn't eat up valuable memory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CHKPTH 1.0 Written Oct 1990 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CHKPATH is a little utility to check along your PATH for the presence of a file, or group of files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EVAL 1.1 Written August 1990 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EVAL is a utility that evaluates given mathematical expressions and returns the answer. Example: EVAL 2+3*(4+7)/2 would give an answer of 18.5 by following the rule My Dear Aunt Sally. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3x5 Card Maker 1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3x5 Card Maker is a little program that allows a user to design text 46 charactors across by 14 lines down, and then prints it out on a form-fed 3x5 card on you Epson or compatible printer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What's in the works? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My current project is a journal program that let's a user type their most secret thoughts and then encrypt them from prying eyes. Included will be a calender and a reminder utility to remind you of important dates. Also included will be a privacy switch that pops over a mini-text editor with a default file for you to work on in case someone walks in and interrupts you unexpectedly. Also in the works is a desktop program. I will include PHBK, a calender, a calculator, an appointment book, an editor, and a file organiser. I know that everyone and their grandmother has written one, but I can't find anything that I like and that has all of those features without it either being a TSR, expensive, or unmanagable.
