Title:
Oil market simulation model (OMS) [electronic resource]
Original diskette files: All diskettes were mounted on a 5 1/4" drive of a
Windows 98 PC and the diskette files were copied to the PC hard drive. To preserve
the original file content, all files were transferred to a UNIX server in binary
format and retain their original time and date stamps.
Processed documentation files: The original DOS ASCII documentation was
examined with Perl "cio" (check-it-out) to identify extraneous control and
high ASCII characters. Form feeds (octal 14), and the substitute control code
(octal 32) were replaced with a blank using Perl "fix". DOS carriage return
characters (octal 15) were removed with UNIX "tr". The "fixed" files were saved
with .TXT file extensions.
The DOC*.PRN files were concatenated with Unix "cat". The resulting ALLDOC
file was saved with a .TXT file extension.
You can view the
1992 "cio" output for the original ASCII
diskette documentation files.
Processed data tables: The Lotus 123 file cannot be converted because
the file contains macros that cannot be read by other spreadsheet software.
