HtmlBook version 0.11

HtmlBook is a small application I wrote for grouping documents made up by multiple html files, image files, etc. into a unique file.
You can download the program archive, HtmlBook011.zip (83 KB) from hobbes.

Notes:

  1. The previous version could not correctly handle blank spaces in file names.
  2. To use MOZILLA as a html viewer you have to enter "%s" (you do have to type the double quote characters) in the parameters field of the HtmlBook options dialog, otherwise mozilla cannot handle file names containing blank spaces.
  3. Currently, when using MOZILLA as a viewer, it is not possible to open at the same time 2 or more HtmlBooks.
    This is due to the way MOZILLA works when a new program instance is started.
    The problem will be corrected with the next version of HtmlBook.

My Micro Benchmark Suite version 1

In order to compare the performances of a real machine with virtual machines I wrote a micro suite of benchmarks for OS/2 as ordinary benchmark programs do not always work correctly when executed within a virtual machine.

If you want to run the benchmark yourself or improve them (the source code is included) you can get My Micro Benchmark Suite (271 KB) here.
