Contract Programming Services Offered

Experienced computer programmer offers short- or long-term programming services in Microsoft Windows, MS-DOS, Unix, or other systems. My strengths include:

• Attention to detail.
• Tenacity in tracing the cause and cure of observed bugs.
• Experience in porting and adapting code to multiple environments, confining changes to a few central locations in the source code.
• Designing and writing complete, exact, and readable documentation.

• Windows user interface code, including
  • Custom versions of the standard Windows controls (buttons, list boxes, tree views, etc.).
  • Graphics and palette handling.
• Blaise Computing's C libraries for DOS text mode and Windows 3.1. I was deeply involved in the creation and extension of these products.
  • C TOOLS PLUS and Turbo C TOOLS, general-purpose DOS libraries emphasizing text-mode windows and terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) programs.
  • Win++, a library of C++ wrapper classes for the Windows 3.1 API.
  • POWER SEARCH, a text search library supporting regular expressions.
  • C ASYNCH MANAGER, a library supporting communications on the IBM PC's serial ports.
• Porting 32-bit code to 16-bit Windows and vice versa.
• Escaping from MFC. I have removed all requirements for Microsoft's MFC library from programs that make modest use of MFC classes, such as CString and CDC.
