avwin98 software
from pappafoxtrot, singapore;
few days ago, i posted a message but i don't see it anymore. therefor a repeat:
i had downloaded the avwin98 student software for hobby purpose. regrettable i lost my pc, including this software and i understand that it is not anymore free available. is there a member who could make this software available for me? thank you for your attention.


hi, pappafoxtrot.
your original posting is still there, at the end of a posting in the steel engineering forum (matf11 - structural calculations).
are you still trying to replace your avwin98 student edition?  if yes, post a reply to this, and i may be able to help.  (i'm trying to set up a file storage that you and others could access).
hello austim, thank you for replying; yes i am still trying to replace my lost avwin student. i had one earlier reply from a   
hi again, pappafoxtrot.
firstly, the good news.  i have now established my web-based file storage, from which you should be able to download the student version of avwin98.
(one small step for a man that is well experienced in all this magic computer stuff, but one giant leap for austim-kind...)
the slightly bad news is that, due to an apparent (ie undocumented) file size limit i have had to split the original zip file into 5 portions, thus making the downloading process rather tedious.
now for the exciting bit - how to access my storage.
11.  at the end of all this you may have developed an aversion to the tortoise, but i rather like it.  if that sort of thing appeals to you, you will find a troupe of eight differently skilled tortoises (or turtles?) if you click on 'sign up' at step 3.
to be fair to paralink, despite the 1mb file size limit, they seem to provide a very useful service.  for no cost you can set up your own system, providing for 50 mb storage (no restriction on file types), with up to 5 nominated user areas (hence you and anyone else with the entry details for austim2 - public have already been 'registered') in addition to your own private area.
finally, i should note that if i am inadvertently breaching copyright by setting up this storage area, i will remove it from public acess if given reasonable cuase to do so.
i would hope that this is unlikely, when all of the downloadable data was originally freely available anyway.
austim2;
have done the downloading; very much impressed with your set-up and i still do like turtles. i am very happy with the efforts you did to help others. you helped me a lot.
the manual downloading did give a problem: using the bat file it showed a message" too many parameters"; i know what it means but i don't know how to eliminate the problem. the good thing is that most of the manual contents was still somewhere in my head, so it is not really a problem. however, it might be a problem for others. thank you one again.

glad to be of help pappa, foxtrot.
i apologise for the glitch with the avwin manual batch file, which i believe has now been fixed so that anyone else should not have the same problem.
to fix the problem with the manual files that you have already downloaded (assuming that you have not yet deleted them), the process is fairly simple:
1.  in windows explorer, rename all 6 of the manual files (including the batch file for consistency only), to eliminate the space between avwin and manual (giving avwinmanual**).
2. in a dos window, run edit, load the batch file, eliminate all 6 space characters between avwin and manual in the operative line as above, and save the edited file.
3. run the revised batch file.
