I didn't catch the beginning of this thread, but I would recommend
the GNU Emacs port for PC's.  It can do about anything you want since
it is programmable, support for lisp, C, C++, and many other languages
is already out there.  And most importantly, it's free.

There is a simple way by getting the date to a batch-file
bye writing a small program, that passes an errorlevel to
DOS, which can be checked with:

  if errorlevel <value> goto <label>
.
.
:label
 <action>

for simply getting the day of the week this program is only
6 (!) bytes long and can be compiled via debug.com

MOV ah,2a
INT 21
MOV ah,4c
INT 21

for other purposes adjusting this should not be very difficult.
If anybody has difficulties with this, please contact me via email.

Well, not. Generally if you are going to be putting the image back 
exactly where it came from, you could simply grab and mask it, however, 
if you will be moving it from one spot to another, then you may as well
shift the entire thing so that it is left justified in the image buffer.
This simplifies the code to put the image back on the screen in another
location.

To use the 32-bit one you need a 32-bit compiler, like Watcom C/386 
Metaware High C, or Zortech from Symantec.

FlashTek, Inc. supplies (a crippled version) the one shipped with the

Subject: BC++3.0/OWL DDEACK structure from WM_DDE_EXECUTE
Organization: HP Australasian Response Centre (Melbourne)
Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.programmer
X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.1 PL8.5]

[ Article crossposted from comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.misc ]
[ Author was Peter Westley ]
[ Posted on Tue, 26 Jan 1993 01:33:13 GMT ]

Is the DDEACK structure which comes pointed to in LOWORD of lParam when
WM_DDE_ACK is in response to a WM_DDE_EXECUTE message, valid?

Let me explain:

I have a method called when I receive a WM_DDE_ACK message:
(Using OWL dynamic dispatching it's easy) It get's called after sending a
WM_DDE_XXX message to the DDE serveer, when the server replies with an 
WM_DDE_ACK message.

class DDEClass
{
    //...
    WMDDEAck(TMessage & Msg)
	=[WM_FIRST + WM_DDE_ACK];
    WORD PendingMessage;
}

void DDEClass::WMDDEAck(TMessage& Msg)
{
    switch (PendingMessage)//pending message is the message which was just sent
			   //to the DDE server - i.e. it's what this WM_DDE_ACK
			   //is in reply to.
    {
	case WM_DDE_INITIATE:
	    //stuff
	    break;
        case WM_DDE_REQUEST:                       
	//I put this and the next case in blocks so that the DdeAck is only
	//created if it's needed (i.e. a local copy only)
	    {   //Get the pointer to the DDEACK     
		DDEACK *DdeAck = (DDEACK *)Msg.LP.Lo;
		if(DdeAck->fAck)               //\
		    //stuff if ack is valid;   // \
                else                           //  |- these are different to the
		    //other stuff if it isn't; // /   DDE_EXECUTE commands
	    }                                  ///
	    break;
	case WM_DDE_EXECUTE:
	    {   //Get the pointer to the DDEACK
		DDEACK *DdeAck = (DDEACK *)Msg.LP.Lo; 
		if(DdeAck->fAck)
		    //stuff if ack is valid;
                else
		    //other stuff if it isn't;
	    }
	    break;
    }
}

The problem is that when I get the response from the WM_DDE_REQUEST message,
everything is fine (same for the WM_DDE_INITIATE but I don't use the DDEACK
structure there)  When it enters the case WM_DDE_EXECUTE case section,
I get a GP fault on access to the DdeAck->fAck location.  The code generated
by the compiler is the same for both parts of the case statements (though
I haven't been able to check the code which sets up the DDEACK struct).

SO, does anyone know if there is a problem in the windows code (3.1) which 
might be broken here such that it doesn't allocate the DDEACK structure 
properly?  Is the DDEACK struct supposed to be valid when it's in response
to a WM_DDE_EXECUTE message?

Please help!

I was wondering if anyone had information on Microsoft C 6.0.  The
company I am working for is still using Microsoft C 5.1 because they
maintain that 6.0 was very buggy and did not work properly.  The thing
is, they are not using any optimizer switches on the 5.1 compiler because
they apparently don't work correctly.

Might there be a 6.1 version of  the compiler, or some sort of patch
release that fixes any/some of the bugs in 6.0?  Is anyone aware of a
published list of known bugs in 5.1, or 6.0?

Please don't respond with a suggestion to use MSC/C++ 7.0, as the
owner of the company is not willing to switch to a compiler which supports
C++ right now.  (Don't ask me why, but that's his feeling).

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.

Both of those *are* covered.  The entry and exit code for all kinds of

You *need* go32 to run the a.out files though (well, you could write your
own extender from scratch, but that wouldn't be much fun).

As far as environment variables, the only ones you really need to run 
the resulting programs are:

go32tmp=c:/tmp   (to place paging file, though if not present TEMP and TMP 
                  will also be checked. If none present, current dir is used)
go32=emu path/to/387emulator driver path/to/graphics/driver gw xxx gh yyy

and these ONLY if you need 387 emulation, and/or using graphics.  If you're
not using any of these, you don't really need that variable.  And it will
default to 320x200x256 graphics if you are using graphics and don't define
anything in that area.

If what you mean, you really don't want to have to type 'go32 a.out' all the
time, use the aout2exe program, and just copy go32.exe along with the resulting
executable (making sure go32.exe is in the path somewhere, of course).

work). I will be doing the work in Turbo Pascal version 3, a program to read a
512 byte sector given absolute side, cylinder, and sector would be very nice. I
know how to do a DOS call from Turbo Pascal as the manual documents how
to read the timer. WHat I don't know is what is the DOS call to read an
absolute sector and what parameters does it take.

Please answer by email. Thanks in advance for any help.

On this same note:

	Is there a program which takes in a gcc aout file and converts
	it to an EXE file without using go32 as a front end?

	I would like to run the programs I write on other machines
	without installing go32 and all of its environment variables.

Hi,

I am hoping you can give me an idea about the following "puzzle":

I am working on a DOS program by using ver 6.0 Microsoft C compiler
and version 5.10 Segmented-Excutable Linker.
The Linker produced a map file indicating a 34k for a BSS item
called c_common.

I like to know what this BSS item is for, and how I can reduce it.
Due to this large item, there is no much space left in the 64K default
data segment.

Thank you very much.

Bensen Chiou.

Hi, I am looking for a modem programming toolkit in C or C++... I looked
in wuarchive.wustl.edu and at some books, but everything I can find seems
to be very low-level... I just want something on the level of something
like init_modem,get_character, send_character, flush_buffer, close_modem.

Is there nothing that's this simple and still works well?

Thanks!

Conroy
