I grabbed the whole kit and caboodle from archive.org without issues. I was going to post a zip archive of the contents here, but 6.3M is too big.

Tried a few of the programs in Dosbox on a 64 bit Linux computer and they worked fine. It's been awhile, but I forgot how superior the Bash command-line is compared to DOS. :)

Thanks, Krypto, much appreciated.  That will be a nice thing to pass along to future members after Ripley's sites evaporate (I doubt his heirs will support them).

6.3 meg is not that much these days.  Three pictures on my camera occupy that much space.

Hi Marv,

Sorry to hear about your hoster's demise. As someone who is also on his 51st orbit, I'm aware of having more creaks and twinges than 10 years ago.... but fingers crossed nothing big or scary.

I'm sure we can find a home somewhere on this site for your programs, if you like?

Cheers,
Ade.

Thanks for the generous offer, Ade.

I've lost interest in the programs.  The site has been up for many years and has received very little attention so I'm not motivated to keep it alive.  It seems that most people are only looking for ways to avoid doing anything mathematical.  Most puzzling to me is the fact that, when a math issue arises, there's always a crowd of innumerates eager to trumpet their lack of ability and inability to learn.

Anyone who could genuinely use one of the programs can always contact me or use one of the facilities that Jason and Krypto have documented.

As far as housing the programs on MEM, I leave that to your discretion.  You have my full permission to do whatever you wish (including nothing) with them.
