They will not run on any computer named after a piece of fruit or any operating system which has the letter &#8216;X&#8217; in the name (probably). Some of the DOS programs will have problems running under Windows.<\/li>\n<li>They are all compressed with PKZIP. You need PKUNZIP or another program that can decompress .ZIP files to be able to use them.<\/li>\n<li>The Windows programs may require a DLL (Dynamic Link Library) that you don&#8217;t have. If this is the case, try <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reenigne.org\/blog\/librepos\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Please don&#8217;t write and tell me that the documentation for some of these programs is very bad &#8211; I know. Some of them don&#8217;t have documentation at all. I wish you fun trying to figure out what they do.<\/li>\n<li>Download sizes are given in brackets. To calculate approximate times in seconds, divide the size (in Kb) by your connection speed (in Kbps) and multiply by 10. That&#8217;s the approximately the theoretical maximum speed.<\/li>\n<li>Warning: Never run software you have downloaded from a site you do not trust! Whilst every precaution has been taken to ensure that these files do not contain viruses, I recommend running a virus checker that you trust on the files once they have been unzipped (.ZIP files cannot carry viruses, only their contents can). However, even a virus checker will not tell you if the files they are checking have been specifically created to cause havoc (trojans) I promise that none of the programs I&#8217;ve uploaded here are trojans. If you don&#8217;t trust me, get the source, understand it and compile it yourself with a compiler you trust.<\/li>\n<li>Full source code for all these is available on the free software principle:\n<ul>\n<li>Use it<\/li>\n<li>Change it, just don&#8217;t hoard it.<\/li>\n<li>Sell it if you like, although I&#8217;d appreciate a cut of the profits.<\/li>\n<li>Please don&#8217;t remove my name from it.<\/li>\n<li>Whatever else you do, just don&#8217;t hoard it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the moment you&#8217;ll have to email me for the source because it&#8217;s too messy to upload. Hopefully I will get around to fixing that soon.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[New Sep 2007!] <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reenigne.org\/computer\/software\/mandel_zoom.exe\">Mandelbrot zoom<\/a> (160K) &#8211; a fractal program for Windows featuring a logarithmic palette, progressive resolution and dwell limit, anti-aliasing and real-time zooming.
