5.36RMS.XLS Excell indexed file sizing toolEPS::VANDENHEUVELHeinMon May 05 1997 18:11361
    Included is a UUENCODED Excell V5 spreadsheet for easy
    indexed file sizing excersizes. Makes for a pretty good
    'what if' tool if I dare say so myself.
    
    In case I messed up the encoding, try EPS::UTL:RMS.XLS
    
    If you end up using this spreadsheet within a week or two
    from posting, then kindly send me a quick mail to let me
    know whether the encoded stuff worked, the file worked,
    and nothably whether you think this little tool helps you.
    (This is beerware).
    
    Have fun,
    		Hein van den Heuvel

  Hein,
    When I UUDECODE -.1, I get an XLS file, but it just hangs Excel. I tried
  copying the file from EPS via an OpenVMS system. Excel starts successfully,
  but I can't find anything useful. Just an empty sheet with a single cell A1 
  containing a rectangle character.

    My own PC is connected to a wrong network for days to come so I 
    have a hard time testing this. I exchanged mail with John, and
    he was doing slightly special things (DECnet DOS, not Pathworks)
    Anyone succesfully used the spreadsheet and/or new tuning presentation
    in the same directory (EPS::UTL:RMS_TUNING.PPT) ? Kindly mail me.
    
    [this reply will self-destruct and perhpas take the previous two 
     replies with it in a few days / weeks ]

I tried UUDECODEing the XLS in .36 and my copy of Excel doesn't like it either.
The copies I took from EPS:: worked fine.

5.37GLOBAL_BUFFERS.MAR Open list of shared files and go to sleep.EPS::VANDENHEUVELHeinWed Jun 04 1997 18:3566
; GLOBAL_BUFFERS.MAR
; Simple program to open files specified to sys$input in shared mode and then
; go to sleep. The main intent is to create global buffers and/or file statis-
; tics blocks and keep them alive if the application occacionally closes files.
;
; Written in macro as that is present on all systems.
; Run for example with $SPAWN/NOWAIT/INPUT=<file-with-filenames GLOBAL_BUFFERS
; Stop with stop /id or STOP GLOBAL_BUFFERS.
;    
; Have fun, Hein van den Heuvel, 1997
