OVERVIEW

This program is similar to others written in assembly language
but it is written entirely in C. It was done to show that such
a program in C is nearly as small and fast as is the assembly
version.

The program displays the complete ASCII table a la Sidekick(tm).

Use: PgUp and PgDn to page the display
ESC to exit

Installation: Must be installed in Desqview environment.
Requires a DV memory size of only 4k.
Must set the window size to 18 high and 23 wide.
Program does not generate colors so it will assume
the window's colors or you can make a startup script
to force colors.

Files:
asciitbl.c the source file ( for MSC 4.0;
compile with small model and link
with stack of 150 bytes - IT IS
REALLY IMPORTANT to either use linker
directive to set stack or to use
EXEMOD. Microsoft's default stack size
is 2k and program will crash DV if
loaded into a 4k segment.)
asciitbl.exe compiled version of above - fits in 4k
with room to spare!
at-pif.dvp dv 2.0 pif file
at-scrip.dvs dv 2.0 startup script for colors
