left the University of Georgia to work in industry.
I still have faculty privileges but am not available
to teach or direct student work.

- Adding Graphics to Console Applications
(An easy way to do scientific plotting, etc., in Windows;
this is an old article and the technique is not guaranteed to work
under current versions, but it has attracted widespread interest
and I post it here for its historical value. Please do not ask me for help with it,
but if you have helpful information that I can include with it, let me know.)
- Interfacing through the PC joystick port
(Another obsolete project that I keep getting inquiries about.
The circuits are still relevant, but the software is for DOS and would need
complete reworking for Windows XP.)
