"Return to Dunes" - sand picture simulation
A DOS-based graphics demo (in VGA 320 by 200 mode) that uses relatively simple
dynamics for simulating the behavior of a "sand picture" (consisting of
different types of sand and some water, kept between two pieces of glass),
generating a continously moving display. This would be a good thing to turn
into a screensaver, but I never got around...
While a real sand picture has to be turned around whenever the sand settles
down, this simulation simply reverses the force of gravity to change roles
between "grains" and "bubbles". This can be forced at any time by hitting the
Space bar.
C source code is included.
HELPMAKE/HELPREAD compiler/decompiler for Borland Help Files
This package contains a compiler/decompiler for Borland's TurboHelp files used
in their DOS-based Turbo compilers. The documentation has never been
translated to English, but I still make the program available in the hope that
it may be of use to someone... The package supports THELP versions up to 2.1
and contains source code and executables for the compiler/decompiler, as well
as a description of the TH1/TH2 file format.
Please note that the entire documentation is in German language only.
