Biographical/Historical Note Donald Albert Maslin was born November 2, 1927 in Whitneyville, Connecticut. Son of Albert J. and Margaret L. Maslin, Don was the younger brother of Robert and older brother of Margaret Anne. The family soon moved to Pennsylvania, where his first job was working for the Pennsylvania Railroad during WWII, tamping gravel and carrying ties and sections of rail. He got his driver’s license shortly after his 16th birthday, and then bought a 1931 Ford Model A California Coupe for $120. It was to be just the first of 23 cars he would own. Maslin graduated from high school in 1945 and enlisted in the Coast Guard. After completing his service, he went into pilot training, where he got his license and bought a Fairchild PT-19 trainer. He attended the University of Michigan for two years and then transferred for a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Bucknell University. He moved to San Diego in 1954 to work for CONVAIR in the Engineering Flight Test Department, where he worked on the F102 and F106. Additionally, he pioneered the use of water ballast instead of sand bags for flight testing the CONVAIR 880 transport plane. In 1958, Maslin purchased a Lotus-11 racing car and raced on the amateur circuit, where he met a woman named Winnie, and they married in 1959. Maslin left CONVAIR in 1960. He subsequently worked for Electro Instruments, where in close cooperation with Robert Mason & Associates, they achieved a WESCON Award of Excellence in Industrial Engineering for the company's Model 300 X-Y Plotter. Later, he was employed by Cohu Electronics and Dolphin Engineering, where he worked for Robert “Bud” Hull, who also had a race car. Maslin and Hull reportedly did some stunt driving for the TV show “Route 66,” as well as Ronald Reagan’s last movie, “The Killers.” In 1964 Maslin went to work for the Naval Support Center, Pacific, where he was the combat systems department head. The majority of his naval service was spent in the Department of Defense. Guide to the Don Maslin CP/M X6817.2013 2 collection After retiring, Maslin was heavily involved in the CP/M community in San Diego and was one of the main archivists of CP/M floppy disk distributions. He was active in the comp.sys.cpm newsgroup and would make copies of the diskettes when people needed them to get their vintage computers going. Maslin was admired in these niche communities, as is evidenced by testimonies about his generosity: “the quiet, no-nonsense support he gave, doing something that desperately needed doing if these old systems were going to be kept running, but with no fanfare, no business angle, no glory.” “Don helped a lot of people with his services, and he had the respect of his peers.” “He will be missed by all who want to keep the efforts of… many pioneers alive.” Maslin frequently submitted letters to the editor of the local newspaper. His hobbies included travel, fine wines and cheese. Don Maslin passed away August 28, 2004 in La Jolla, California. Scope and Content of the Collection The Don Maslin CP/M collection consists of software and published documentation spanning from 1973 to 1996, with the bulk being from 1977 to 1984.

Most of the software in the collection pertains to CP/M and applications that were written for the CP/M operating system. The other half of the collection contains text documentation such as reference manuals and user guides for various software and hardware. A significant portion of the text is related to computer hardware, some of which was donated with this text and software collection, but is cataloged separately.

  • Xbase++ Language Concepts for Newbies Geek Gatherings Roger Donnay
    Xbase++ Language Concepts for Newbies Geek Gatherings Roger Donnay Introduction Xbase++ has extended the capabilities of the language beyond what is available in FoxPro and Clipper. For FoxPro developers and Clipper developers who are new to Xbase++, there are new variable types and language concepts that can enhance the programmer's ability to create more powerful and more supportable applications. The flexibility of the Xbase++ language is what makes it possible to create libraries of functions that can be used dynamically across multiple applications. The preprocessor, code blocks, ragged arrays and objects combine to give the programmer the ability to create their own language of commands and functions and all the advantages of a 4th generation language. This session will also show how these language concepts can be employed to create 3rd party add-on products to Xbase++ that will integrate seamlessly into Xbase++ applications. The Xbase++ language in incredibly robust and it could take years to understand most of its capabilities, however when migrating Clipper and FoxPro applications, it is not necessary to know all of this. I have aided many Clipper and FoxPro developers with the migration process over the years and I have found that only a basic introduction to the following concepts are necessary to get off to a great start: * The Xbase++ Project. Creation of EXEs and DLLs. * The compiler, linker and project builder . * Console mode for quick migration of Clipper and Fox 2.6 apps. * INIT and EXIT procedures, DBESYS, APPSYS and MAIN. * The DBE (Database engine) * LOCALS, STATICS, PRIVATE and PUBLIC variables. * STATIC functions.
