Logi v1.2 (21/1/2002)
logi.zip (BE) (31Kb) | logifull.zip (BE) (550Kb) | logi_arm.zip (PPC) (506Kb) | logi_mips.zip (PPC) (672Kb) | logi_sh3.zip (PPC) (549Kb)
Logi is an expense tracking application that runs on Pocket PCs and on the Casio BE-300 PDA. In principle it is based on the expense tracking application built-in the Casio PVS-450 Pocket Viewer. It allows 15 user-defined expense categories, 15 user defined payment-categories and tt can report give expense on a specific date-range grouped by expense or payment type.
To make sure that you download the version you need, I have prepared five download packages:
  • logi_arm.zip: For PPC devices with the ARM processor (e.g. iPAQ)
  • logi_mips.zip: For PPC devices with the MIPS processor (e.g. Casio E-125)
  • logi_sh3.zip: For PPC devices with the SH3 processor (e.g. Jornada 548)
  • logi.zip: For the Casio BE-300. It contains only the executable file, without the eVB runtime and the DLLs needed (MSCEFile.dll and MSGrid.dll). Download this if you have installed a previous version of Logi.
  • logifull.zip: For the Casio BE-300. It contains all files that are needed to run the application. Please keep in mind that the BE versions have only been tested with XPod, an alternative OS/shell for this PDA. I think though that it would work with the standard Casio OS.

    Opera Export Tool v1.0 (25/6/2002)
    download (11Kb)
    This little tool is used to export the hot list file of Opera (a good alternative internet browser - see the essential section for details) to a standard HTML file for quick viewing and possible use on other browsers.
    It comes in two versions, one running with a simple Win32 GUI and the other as a command-line tool. Both versions are included in the tiny archive.

    tessera v1.8a (7/4/2002)
    download game (658Kb) download source code (21Kb)
    Tessera is my version of Connect-4. It has a nice interface with raytraced graphics, it is small to download, it has an advanced AI playing algorithm, 3 computer levels, digital background music and it supports mouse and keyboard input. Tessera has been developed using MingW and Allegro. It is using Keith Pomakis' connect-n algorithm for its AI player. Oh, by the way, 'tessera' is a greek word meaning 'four'. Now it makes sense, doesn't it?
    The last version of the game (v1.8a) has slightly harder AI and is compiled using Allegro v4.01. Gaining some recognition, it has been included to the Absolute Free Software No. 1 CD collection, distributed by Primetime software.

    Is this... the end? (v1.8 - 6/6/2001)
    download game (1735Kb)
    Is this... the end? is a shoot-em up game that tries to capture the feeling of old classics, like Galaga and Space Invaders, and enhance the experience with modern graphical, audio and gameplay elements. The latest version (v1.8) has a launcher tool to access start-up options, like graphic resolutions and modes, 3 difficulty settings, since many people found the game very hard, some speed optimizations and many other small improvements. It was compiled with MingW and Allegro 3.9.35, it needs DirectX 7 and runs under Windows.
    The homepage of the game, who once was hosted in XOOM, has dissappeared, so this page is the current "official" download site.

    Note That! v1.5 (18/5/2001)
    download program (258Kb) download source code (4Kb)
    Note That! is a simple and compact program which allows you to keep notes on your desktop. Upon start-up it automatically loads your notes file and it automatically saves it before exiting. The interface language can be set to Greek, English or Greeklish. The program's window can be shrunk to its title bar, so that it does not take up valuable desktop space. A text search mode is also available.
    Note That! has been developed using Rapid-Q. Go to the programming section of this page to find out more about it. Many thanks must go to Mesut Akcan for correcting a serious bug in my program termination code.

    Note That!

    E-Chaos! v1.0 (4/1/2001)
    download program (350Kb)
    E-chaos is a program that converts text between Greek and "Greeklish". For those who do not know, Greeklish is an inventive way to write greek using latin letters. Lack of support for greek characters has made Greeklish quite popular for some time, especially in e-mail and IRC. Today, greek support is embedded (or added externally) in most operating systems and thus Greeklish is not used as extensively. E-Chaos can convert from Greek to Greeklish and vice-versa. It supports the Windows clipboard and the interface language is selectable, between Greek and English. It is written using Rapid-Q.

    Please note: Some antivirus utilities report Rapid-Q executables as infected, while others, like Norton Antivirus, do not complain. Apparently there is no virus at all, but probably a conflict with the way Rapid-Q compiles its output. I never had any problems in my computers developing and running Rapid-Q programs, nor had anybody else. I certainly won't accept any responsibility if something bad happens, but I find it highly unlikely.
