Download 4FreeImage.zip V3.02 ( Last update: April 13th, 2012.)
The viewer shows you images one by one or in a slide show.
The following files can be shown: *.bmp; *.jpg; *.ico; *.pcd; *.psd; *.pcx; *.ppm; *.pgm; *.pbm; *.png; *.ras; *.tga; *.tif
The program is also able to save them as a bitmap.
Compile 4FreeImage.f to generate a turnkey application.
Changes this version:
Added rotating, flipping, zooming and moving in the viewport.
On a fast PC zooming gives the same experience as turning on a zoomlens to change magnification.
Keep Ctrl pressed and press the UP or DOWN key to zoom in or out.
Zooming etc. also works in fullscreen mode
Now you can go forward or backwards in a manual slideshow.
Also added:
- an endless automatic slideshow.
- a fullscreen mode.
- accelerator keys to the menus.
- a popupmenu.
- a SUI ( Social User Interface ).
When you would like to show a number of pictures you are no longer hooked to your PC or mouse anymore.
You can be sitting beteen your friends showing them your pictures
using a full screen and a remote 10 button joystick to control the slideshow.
That could be nice when your PC is also connected to your HD TV or an other big screen.
It is also possible to rotate, flip, zoom and move a picture using the joystick.
Hit button 4 of the joystick to zoom in.
Other functions and the needed buttons of the joystick are shown in the menu between parentheses.
Push the Joystick to move the picture in the viewport.
Open a picture before starting the slide show.
Read readme.txt for a number of tips and notes.

Download JukeboxIn4Th.zip ( Last update (Version 2.0): November 5th, 2011)
JukeboxIn4Th is a program that is designed to play music requests in a
certain order defined by the user or by the build in random traveler.
The JukeboxIn4Th needs at least windows XP and Directx 8.1.
It runs best in Windows 7 with an iCore7.

Compile JukeboxIn4Th.f as follows:
1. Start win32forthIDE.exe ( Part of Win32Forth installation pack )
2. Open JukeboxIn4Th.f
3. Hit <F12>

Installation:

1. Copy JukeboxIn4Th.exe and JukeboxIn4Th_readme.rtf somewhere on your drive.
   For Vista and higher: Copy these 2 files in ANOTHER directory than the “Program Files” directory.
2. Start JukeboxIn4Th.exe.
3. After 2 dialog boxes you are ready and able to travel through your music collection using the random traveler. Just hit the button Rnd as soon as your catalog is filled.

New in this version:

• Extended the multitask part for indexed tasks.
  The tasks are defined in an object (2 demos included).
• Added parallel searching. All your hardware threads will be used!
• Now 2 records are considered to be duplicate when the relative filenames are the same.
• Removed dshow.tlb. The used interfaces are now defined in the file InterfacesJB4Th.f
• Prevented some flickering
• Whole albums can now be added or removed from the request pane.
• Duplicated requests are handled as a move.
• A faster search through a directory tree
• An auto-drop-down in the More button
• Added a combo-list for various filters

Download Juliav44.zip . ( Last update: April 9th, 2012. )
Juliav44 draws various Julia and mandelbrot fractals.
Compile Julia_tk.f for a new turnkey application. New in this version:

• The speed is increased thanks to plotting to a dibsection (under assembler) in stead of using an expensive call to SetPixel. Now the program will use all the hardware threads of your CPU to make a plot. Each thread handles its own section. The various sections of each thread are visible when you move the plot using the cursor-keys or when you load a complicated example like the MultiEyed fractal. ( Perhaps not when you have a very fast PC ) The standard Julia in the previous version with the old SetPixel took 3.396 seconds. The new program is now 19.74 times faster on my iCore7 using 8 threads.
  Using 1 thread and the new set-mdot takes: 0.556 second.
  Using 8 threads and the new set-mdot takes: 0.172 second.
  The program will be faster when a better CPU is used with more hardware threads.
• It can be forced to use only 1 thread in the menu Options.
• The number of detected hardware threads in your PC can be seen in the Menu | Options | About the Program

Download scores.zip ( Last update: December 11th, 2005 )
A simulation for 4 players or more who keep their results in a scoreboard.
It started as a demo and ended in a speedtest. It is able to do both.
Mshell-rel is able to sort and index records. It has the following characteristics:

1. It uses relative pointers. So there is no need to generate the same pointers again when they are used in a memory mapped file.
2. Multiple keys can be used and sorted in one go.
3. The number of keys is only limited by the unused size of the stack.
4. Each key can be sorted in an ascending or descending way.
5. A key may contain a float, an integer or a string.
6. The sort is case-insensitive for strings.
7. Possible to expand to sort floats and doubles etc.

Download 4thclockv201.zip
A clock which shows important days and will generate a sound, or signal at a previous defined time. It can be used as an intelligent alarm clock. 4thclock.exe can be used at 2 levels. When it is restarted, it will continue its tasks. Old settings will be restored when restarted. Just click and run, there are no questions to answer. A complex user interface is avoided by using an ini-file. You do not need to modify it when you use 4thclock.exe on an easy level. OpenGL generates the 3D graphics. Click with the right button in the window of 4thclock.exe for a menu.
Compile _4thclock.f ( note: the underscore ) for testing, changing or a turnkey application. The thinking behind the hole programs was to explore what is needed when a database is used which is not in the dictionary.

Download Seahtml.zip
Seahtml.zip contains an application which was compiled and saved as a turnkey by Win32Forth. Seahtml.exe makes an alphabetical index of a number of bookmarks which are starting with an underscore. It creates a database of the found bookmarks, sorts them and distributes them to a number of html-pages with links to the bookmarks.
Note: The alphabetical index of this site was generated by seahtml.

Download small.zip
Enables turn key applications which are smaller in size.
See Playsnd.f in small.zip for an example.

May the Forth be with you.
