Here is quite a bunch of software, which I don't maintain anymore. See the file INDEX for short descriptions
This program displays all the local drives of your computer on one screen, together with a chart showing the occupied, free and total space for each one. It also runs perfectly in a DOSprompt-box from Win9x. Take a look at the screenshot of the program in a DOSprompt-box. You may get more advanced information about a partition, when specifying the drive letter as parameter.

Ever wanted to process primes? A stupid task, but interesting to program... So this program is fun for me only because of the programming I did for it.
Nevertheless, it processes primes from 0 to a maximum of 2.147.483.647 ! The range can be specified, so if you want to know the primes from 20.000 to 30.000 :
no problem, just tell the program to do so! So that you may use the results from the calculation, you can save the primes in a text file. Take a look at the
screenshot
of the program during calculation.
As the speed of a 'prime-processor' is important, I compared 'Primes 5.0' to other similar programs I could find on the net. I found that it is quite fast and even faster
than most of all others I found. The only programs that were faster, used many MB of RAM to store results in memory and use them for further processing. This is
OK, but I wanted to write a program that does not depend on the machine you are using. 'Primes 5.0' only needs a small part of conventional DOS-memory. That's
all. Further on it should be compatible to an 8086 up to current processors! I didn't test which minimum DOS-version is needed for it to run, but I think that's not a
problem. I tested it in DOS 6.22 and higher. The only problem I found was the DOS-box from Win95 ! Don't run it in a DOS-box, because Win95 will not free all
system resources for this window and the program will be slowed down enormously! If you want to run the program in Win95, at least maximize the window to full
screen!!!!

I wrote this Unit at the time I still thought I could build some scientific applications
with Pascal. As these times are gone, the Unit never really turned into something that one could
call 'a real math-environment'. But the use of it is easy and many functions are implemented
in an easy to understand way.
