Personal Encyclopaedia
Because of the stability of the EPOC and the small files sizes,
it is practical to construct a personalized Encyclopaedia on the
S5. PocketInfo (http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/pocketinfo/)
is the place to go for all those bits and bobs and
RMRzip is one of many possible integrating tool.
For example, to construct a chemical engineering
enclyclopaedia, first, look at the PocketInfo site map below (as
of 1999/11/09):-

This huge collection (over 1000 files) of
information spans many subjects. However, as chemical engineers
we may be interested in the following S5 files:-
| Name |
Description |
Page (hot-linked) |
| cashflow |
A 21kB spreadsheet which predicts cash flows from
monthly receipts and disbursements. |
Business
/finance |
| mbatools |
A 71kB database of useful business definitions,
principles, tools and resources that may be encountered
in MBA courses. |
Business
/Doing Business |
| project |
A 44kB spreadsheet with simple Gantt chart project
planning. |
| chemtec |
A 2.2MB database of engineering and material science
definitions and information , including some element and
compound properties. |
Reference
/The Physical World |
| halflife |
A 10kB spreadsheet model of radioactive decay
calculations. |
| energy |
A 7kB spreadsheet to calculate the energy of reaction
of organic compounds from molecular group contributions. |
| elements |
An 8kB database of the element table and their basic
properties. |
| regress |
A 38kB spreadsheet linear regression analysis that
curve fits 7 different equations to up to 16 data pairs. |
Reference
/Mathematics & Statistics |
| engmaths |
An 85kB database of some engineering and mathematics
definitions, rules and laws, formula and methods. |
Secondly, download the above files and those on
my web page that you fancy. Thirdly, change the file names to
take advantage of RMRzip's ability to located files by their
first letter. Finally, zip these files into a single zip file and
you have your personalized chemical Encyclopaedia. I would
recommend RMRzip to do the job, though there are other methods.
NB. Perhaps later, RMR Software might
take advantage of the comment line and use it for keyword
searches!
