If you want an *.exe or *.dll to read and sort a directory tree for OS/2, I think I may be able to help you.

I do have Modula2 modules which could be masarged and compiled to do this.

But it will take a week or two.

I'm off to a 50 year anniversary for PMG TIT's this weekend.

Regards
Dennis.

Hi John

But who's counting? :-)


Me, hate it when I say I'll look at something, eventually, meaning in
weeks, not years :-)

Sorry I can't be much direct help, but I wonder: how do Hobbes manage it?


Could ask whatshis name (have to check back through my emails
as I can never remember it) but I know the script he wrote for
hobbes is a real hack job, and it does it on the fly, I want to keep
Filepage static but the code should still have the points I need, once
I figure out what it is I'm looking for. Unfortunetly he doesnt want to
let anyone else see the code as he ment to um, clean it up, argh,
I believe quite a large number of years ago. Hmm, that sounds
familiar....

I'll start looking at other code on the net and see what I can
dig up, must be something out there that will point me in the
right direction.

Cheers

Hi Voytek >is any one aware of inexpensive 'temperature sensors' that can feed into a >PC ? You could buy one of those front panel, 5 1/4" bay monitoring units, normally come with read out and a switch/buttons to select what to monitor, ie, HD, CPU, etc. I assume they come with the temp sensors as well, if not you could probably pick them up, I know I have several spare temp sensors that use to come with ABIT MB's. Quick look got me this :- Simple matter of putting the panel elsewere. For long cable runs, I would find someone with some tech knowledge to get two, use the comparator on one to boost the signal and do the initial measurements, then run the long lead to the display board though would probably only need a 12 volt supply to run. (maybe even just a 5v) that you could get from an old PC supply or fit it into a PC elsewere. More expense solution is to try a place like Jaycar, though will have weather stations with remote monitoring etc. Hey, you could then even get humidty and wind read outs from your server room ;-) Go to http://www.jaycar dot com dot au/ select Paper cat, then select "General & Consumer" and "Weather Station" Top one is computer controller.
