Software from old projects, old operating systems, ... If you're interested in any of it, let me know.
bfl_util- big file package.bhp_util- block heap allocation utilities.ckp_util- checkpointing package.cobl_util- collectable object lists.dympl_util- dynamically loads object modules (Solaris, HP/UX, VMS, VxWorks).eio_util- extensible I/O package for user-level, application-specific device drivers.mpl_util- memory pool management.qio_util- application-level, queued I/O facility (UNIX, VMS, and VxWorks).xbm_util- X bitmap (XBM) utilities.
eio_packet- Extensible I/O driver for packet file I/O.kai_util- KDOS asynchronous file I/O.mist_util- high-level interface to MEDS message streams.
VMS - a class operating system. This software was written for a VMS-based satellite control center during 1992-1993; we used the VAX C compiler and DEC's UCX TCP/IP networking product. Porting the original UNIX software to VMS was relatively painless and most of the applications I wrote for the project ported effortlessly back to UNIX afterwards.
lnm_util- high-level interface to VMS logical name facility.luq_util- high-level interface for DECmessageQ I/O.mbx_util- high-level interface to VMS mailboxes.popen- VMS version of UNIX function.rock_util- high-level interface to VMS resource locking.sup_util- distributed "server is up" tracking using VMS locks.tty_util- high-level interface for VMS terminal I/O.
atexit- VxWorks implementation of ANSI C function.ef_util- VxWorks implementation of VMS-like event flags.
- hope
- A Tcl-based, programmable HTTP server. hope was originally a separate program; since I needed some of gentle's capabilities, however, I ended up just adding some HTTP commands to gentle. (Also see HOPE/LZP, HOPE/ETS, and HOPE/Epoch.)
- moi
- A Tcl-based, programmable X11 (Tk) graphical user interface. (Derived from earlier Motif programs, wimp and twerp!) For an overview of gentle and moi, see my slightly out-of-date memo, "C'est Moi!". I subsequently developed a Motif equivalent to moi, called plum, which resulted in a reworking of the display classes so that the same status page definitions could be used by both the Tk and Motif versions of the GUI.
- nacc
- Not another compiler-compiler?! In FORTRAN, no less!
- nafta
- Not another file transfer application?! (Superseded by pose.)
- oflow
- Generates cflow(1)-style structure charts from VMS object modules.
- plum
- A Tcl-based, programmable X11 (Motif) graphical user interface. (The Motif equivalent of moi.)
