3838.0. "More stuff off Usenet" by WJG::GUINEAU () Mon Jun 11 1990 15:06

I found this stuff whilst poking in various ftp sites around the world.
The Internet at large is kinda fun!

wjg::amiga:

1990.LZH             Not sure what this is. Only one file in archive 
DOPUSDEM.LZH         "The Ultimate Directory Utility" - crippled demo.
EPROM.LZH            Schematics and program for making an eprom blaster for amy!
GIFTOIFF.ZOO         The latest (?) v2.x of the gif to iff converter 
HKDEMO.LZH           "Harmon-Kardon" demos. Not sure what they are...
NOISETRACKER12.LZH   A better version of "Sound Tracker" (like audiomaster?)
SOUNDTRACKER25.LZH   Latest version? An audiomaster thing?
UUCP106D.ZOO         Latest V1.06D of Matt Dillon's UUCP package


Matt Dillon has written a PC C compiler called "DICE". I'll post it when it
arrives...

have fun!

3838.2UUCP disk 2 missing!WJG::GUINEAUTue Jun 12 1990 09:317
Sorry Folks, 

It was brought to my attention that I kinda missed disk 2 of UUCP 1.06D.

Waiting for BITFTP now...

As promised, here is UUCP 1.06D from Matt Dillon. It's actually 3 disks!

	wjg::amiga:uucp_106d_2.zoo
	wjg::amiga:uucp_106d_3.zoo


Has anyone tried Matt's DICE C compiler yet?

(where *does* he get the time to write this stuff?!?!?)

3838.4Works as advertised.AYOV28::ATHOMSONC'mon, git aff! /The Kelty ClippieFri Jun 22 1990 11:4625

    �Has anyone tried Matt's DICE C compiler yet?
    
    I downloaded it yesterday and put in some time 'playing' with it last
    night, from what I've tried it certainly seems to work as advertised.
    
    I compiled some of the example programs from the C-tutorial disks from
    the fish disk, and they all compiled sucessfully unmodified except those 
    that used the 'chip' qualifier. The resulting file sizes were
    comparable with the executables supplied which were compiled under
    Lattice 5.4
    
    I also compiled a program which I had lying around (I think it came
    from the Designer Disk Set [Amiga World disks ??? - can't remember])
    which gave a benchmark measurement in Dhrystones. The original
    (compiled under Lattice V3.03) from the designer disk rated my machine
    at 471 dhrystones (14Mhz CMI processor accellerator) using the version
    which uses register variables. After compiling the source with DICE it
    rated my machine at 833 Dhrystones !! I know that comparing it with
    Lattice 3.03 probably isn't particularly valid but it certainly
    impressed me !

3838.5No chip memory switch in DICE?RGB::ROSETue Jun 26 1990 09:5810
    	I have been playing with DICE. It does not appear to have a switch
    to put the code in chip memory. The DAS documentation mentions that the
    SECTION command permits hunk flags for chip memory. It stops short
    of telling you how to do it. There appears to be no switch in DCC to
    do it. Am I missing something?
    
    	If I do an AllocMem() to chip memory and copy an image there, do I
    have to use the large data model to access it?
                   
    	Otherwise, DICE seems to work pretty well.
3838.6Ok whats the 1990.lzh do....CSC32::A_ANDERSONHad Screw Driver did TravelFri Jun 29 1990 19:356
    Any one figured out what 1990.lzh does.  I tried run, execute, edit,
    type, display, play, nothing.....  It unpacks ok tho..

3838.71990... not worth the DL timeRLAV::WEGERNJCD SWS, Piscataway NJ. 323-4468Fri Jun 29 1990 21:226
    It's a pretty crummy demo IMHO. It runs on my 1 meg 500 if I abort my
    startup right away and 'run' it from the CLI.
    
    Maybe it does something more but I just havn't figured it out.
