CMOSSave

CMOSSave CMOSRest CMOSChk restore corrupted CMOS from backup and check that CMOS has not been tampered with. Naive users sometimes meddle with CMOS settings. We need a fast way to put the scores of subtle CMOS configuration settings back the way they were. Power surges can corrupt CMOS. We need a way for a naive user to quickly restore all the CMOS settings. If the battery fails, the contents will be lost. We need a way to restore a known working CMOS configuration. CMOSRest restores ALL of CMOS, including the proprietary extended COMS settings like wait states, clock speeds, shadow RAM etc. CMOSRest can also be used to toggle between two CMOS configurations, for example with and without a removable hard drive installed. CMOSChk can detect subtle corruption to CMOS, as might be caused by a rogue program or a virus, something that might slow your machine or make it unreliable. The CMOS suite will work under DOS, Windows 3.x, Windows 95/98/ME or OS/2. It partly works under NT, Windows 2000 and XP. See CMOS.TXT for details. However, these utilities are intended to be used mainly within autoexec.bat during the DOS phase of the boot. Further, there will be spurious CMOS changes when you reboot between Win95 and NT. The suite can also be used to rapidly clone the same CMOS settings in many machines.

MimeCheck

Check that a server is sending the correct mime type for any given URL. Helps you check that a server, possible not even yours, is properly configured. See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/mime.html to learn what MIME types are.

FontShower

Displays all the fonts available to Java on your machine. Displays the fonts in a variety of styles, sizes and colours, rendered either with anti-aliased or plain. FontShower displays the fonts available on *your* machine to *Java*. Other people will have different fonts installed and will see different selections available via Java on their machines. Your browser will see a slightly different set of fonts than Java does. Java has a few extra private fonts, and some browser fonts don''t work with Java. Renders using a JTextArea. Complete Java source included. There is an AWT version available at http://mindprod.com/products1.html#FONTSHOWERAWT

Sound

Sound lets you mathematically create sounds in Java. You define your sounds in terms of 16-bit linear code for the waveform, -- an array of samplings. The U_Law.class will then convert that to (or from) *.AU mu-law 8-bit encoding format which you can then play with AudioPlayer.player.start(bis) in an application or with Applet.getAudioClip in an Applet. This is just a sample program. You would insert your own mathematical functions or cannibalise parts of the code. Use winzip to extract U_Law.java and Sound.java with folder names into the com\mindprod\sound directory. java com.mindprod.sound.Sound

Primes

calculates the prime numbers 1..N, tells you if N is prime etc. Prints tables of primes. Computes the prime just below or above N. It is useful in computing optimal HashTable sizes. Java source included.

CSVReader/Writer

Java classes you can use standalone or embed in your own programs to Read, write, align and pack comma, tab and semicolon- separated variable files, commonly known as CSV files. It consists of a four Java classes CSVReader CSVWriter, CSVAlign and CSVPack for reading and writing CSV (Comma Separated Value) formatted files. Also handles tab-separated and semicolon-separated files. This is the format use by Microsoft Word and other Microsoft products. This version does not support # embedded comments. Note that CSV files are perhaps 10 times slower to process than binary files. They are for data interchange with other languages or when human-readibility or editability is important. If you want speed, use binary format files, e.g. DataInputStream or possibly the convenient but slower ObjectInputStream. CSVAlign aligns the fields in columns for easier proofreading. java com.mindprod.csv.CSVAlign somefile.csv CSVTab2Comma converts a tab-separated file to a comma-separated one. java com.mindprod.csv.CSVTab2Comma somefile.csv CSVPack removes all unecessary spaces to make at CSV file as compact as possible. java com.mindprod.csv.CSVPack somefile.csv

Encodings

Applet to list all supported encodings (character sets) supported by your browser/java. To install, Extract the zip download with WinZip, available from http://www.winzip.com (or similar unzip utility) into any directory you please, often C:\ -- ticking off the (user folder names) option. To run as an application, type: java -jar C:\com\mindprod\encodings\encodings.jar adjusting as necessary to account for where the jar file is.
