CONTENTS OF DISK 6
==================
compress Compress reduces the size of the named files using
adaptive Lempel-Ziv coding. The amount of compression
obtained depends on the size of the input, the number
of bits per code, and the distribution of common
substrings. Typically, text such as source code or
English is reduced by 50-60%. Compression is generally
much better then that achieved by Huffman coding (as
used in "pack") or adaptive Huffman coding (as used in
"compact"), and takes less time to compute. Great for
saving disk space, or reducing transmission time over
phone lines! Also includes "btoa" and "atob" for
converting binary files to ascii, and then back to
binary (for transmission over links that do not support
8 bits). Author: Thomas Spencer, with improvements by
others
dadc A digital computer impersonating an analog clock
impersonating a digital clock. Author: Perry S.
Kivolowitz
microemacs An upgraded version of microemacs originally
distributed on disk number 2. I don't have an exact
list of changes but the new executable is about 25%
larger, so there must be something in there! One
enhancement is that some functions are now also bound
to function keys. Author: Dave Conroy, with
enhancements by Jack Roose.
mult Mult reads the input comparing adjacent lines. In the
normal case, the second and succeeding copies of
repeated lines are output, and the remainder of the
lines are removed. Repeated lines must be adjacent in
order to be found. Options are present to output the
first of multiple lines, for comparing adjacent lines
by field only, and for specifying the field separator
character. Kind of the opposite of the Unix "uniq"
program. Author: Dennis Bednar
scales Demonstrates use of the Audio functions in the ROM to
produce four voice sound. It uses a simple waveform
(sawtooth) with no amplitude control (ie, envelope) or
frequency variation (ie, vibrato), but these can be
easily implemented. Also includes considerable
documentation on audio device. Author: Steven A.
Bennett
setparallel Allows the CLI user to dynamically change any
particular parallel port parameter. Author: Keith
Stobie and Tom Pohorsky
setserial Allows the CLI user to dynamically change any
particular serial port parameter. Author: Keith Stobie
and Tom Pohorsky
sortc A quicksort based sort program, using separate driver
and sort modules. Originally from a DECUS C
distribution. Claims to be fast, but when operating
entirely out of ram takes 93 seconds to sort its input
file, sort.c, while AmigaDos's sort takes only 43
seconds under the same conditions. Author: Dave Conroy,
Martin Minow, and Ray Van Tassle
stripc Strips comments and extraneous whitespace from C source
files. Useful for compacting the C header files to
increase usable disk space. Author: Chris Metcalf

BBS Stuff Note that this disk contains a number of programs
apparently available only in executable form. I am not
real happy with this trend, but had no way of getting
in contact with the authors who posted these programs
to various BBS's to request source. I have no reason to
believe that any of these executable only postings
contain any deliberate "misfeatures", but you should
always use such programs cautiously.

differently here, or not exist. Hopefully, you'll find
the added features MG provides to be worth the trouble
it takes to make the switch. This is the fourth Beta

CONTENTS OF DISK 51
===================
Bison A replacement for unix "yacc" command. This is from the
GNU (GNU is Not Unix) effort, and was obtained from the
Free Software Foundation. This is a working update to
the version on disk number 4, provided by Johan Widen.
Author: Bob Corbett and Richard Stallman
Compress This is an update to the compress version released on
disk number 6. It is tested and seems to work well
except for a couple glitches noticed at the last minute
(see the README file). Compress reduces the size of the
named files using adaptive Lempel-Ziv coding. The
amount of compression obtained depends on the size of
the input, the number of bits per code, and the
distribution of common substrings. Typically, text such
as source code or English is reduced by 50-60%.
Compression is generally much better then that achieved
by Huffman coding (as used in "pack") or adaptive
Huffman coding (as used in "compact"), and takes less
time to compute. Author: Thomas Spencer, with
improvements by others
Cos A "Wheel Of Fortune" style game in AmigaBasic. Author:

MicroGNUEmacs This diskette contains the latest Amiga version of
MicroGNUEmacs (MG 1b), a small but powerful text editor
that also runs on many other computer systems besides
the Amiga. One of MG's major goals is to be compatible
with its "cousin" GNU Emacs, so certain features you
may have seen in other versions of MicroEmacs may work
differently here, or not exist. Hopefully, you'll find
the added features MG provides to be worth the trouble
it takes to make the switch. As well as the commands
available on *all* systems MG supports, Amiga MG has
many Amiga-specific features: the Amiga mouse (with 24
different functions!), Intuition pull-down menus, the
Browser (a very nice way to select files), Amiga
function keys, a full-screen editing window, and
support for using a different text font in the editing
window. The current version is known to run on the
following systems: 4.2 & 4.3 BSD Unix, Sun 3.2; Ultrix-
32 (BSD Unix); OS9/68k; VMS; Amiga; System V; Eunice;
Primos; Cpm/68k; Atari ST MicroGNUEmacs is based on the
original work of Dave Conroy, author of the public
domain v30 version. It has been greatly enhanced
through the efforts of the following people:
mwm@ucbopal.berkeley.edu (Mike Meyer),
mic@ngp.utexas.edu (Mic Kaczmarczik), blarson@usc-
eclb.arpa (Bob Larson), rtech!daveb@sun.com (Dave

CONTENTS OF DISK 104
====================
AnalytiCalc AnalytiCalc is a large and powerful spreadsheet program
with sufficient extra features to have some pretentions
of acting as an "integrated system". It is a virtual
memory system supporting up to 18000 columns and 18000
rows, multiple equations per cell, an outlining system,
built-in cell annotation, and datafile access from any
cell(s) of the sheet, plus an array of functions not
present in most commercial spreadsheets. This disk
represents the initial Amiga port of AnalytiCalc, and
as such the console interface is somewhat crude and in
addition requires use of a custom keymap (one such is
supplied) for sensible operation. This will be improved
upon, but meanwhile the program is released with
complete sources, documents, and executables. The
graphics program and the DIF file access program are
not yet ported; these will be released when they are
ready. AnalytiCalc for the Amiga uses files compatible
with those for AnalytiCalc on MS-DOS, VMS, or RSX-11M
or IAS. An example project planner spreadsheet is
included in the distribution to show off some of the
things you can do. More example sheets will be
forthcoming in the future. AnalytiCalc also supports
matrix math, FFTs, infinite windowing, linear
regression, date arithmetic, internal and external
macros, LOTS of cell addressing modes, goal seeking in
up to 8 dimensions, and more. AnalytiCalc requires
perhaps 600K of RAM memory, at least one 360K diskette
drive, and AmigaDOS 1.2, plus a larger than default
stack. Display sizes supported can be up to 132
characters wide by up to 76 lines long. Sorry; I don't
think AnalytiCalc supports proportional fonts very
well, though it should manage not to be totally brain
damaged with them. The manual requires an 80 column
printer.

Vlt VLT is both a VT100 emulator and a Tektronix (4014 plus
subset of 4105) emulator, currently in use at SLAC
(Stanford Linear Accelerator Center). Although the
VT100 part was originally based on Dave Wecker et al.'s
VT100, many enhancements were made. The program
requires ARP, and it has an ARexx port. XMODEM 1K/CRC
and Kermit protocol support also included. Other
features include support for additional serial ports,
external file transfer protocols, and "chat" mode. The
Tektronix emulation allows saving IFF files, PostScript
files, and printing bitmaps to the printer. This is
version 4.226, an update to version 4.065 on disk 245
and version 4.036 on disk 226. It comes in two
versions, one with Tektronix emulation, and one
without. Other changes include full XPR version 2.0
support, and a scrollback/review/history buffer. Binary
only. Author: Willy Langeveld

subset of 4105) emulator, currently in use at SLAC
(Stanford Linear Accelerator Center). Although the
VT100 part was originally based on Dave Wecker et al.'s
VT100, many enhancements were made. Features include
use of ARP, an ARexx port, XMODEM 1K/CRC and Kermit
protocols, support for additional serial ports,
external file transfer protocols (XPR), a "chat" mode,
and scrollback/review/history buffer. It comes in two
versions, one with Tektronix emulation, and one
without. The Tektronix emulation allows saving IFF
files, PostScript files, and printing bitmaps to the
printer. This is version 4.428, an update to version
4.226 on disk 257. The major change for this update is
a rewrite of the Tektronix emulation to support almost
all of the Tektronix 4105 escape sequences. Binary

MemGuard MemGuard is a MemWatch-like program which has been
rewritten in assembly language for maximum speed and
efficiency. Unlike MemWatch MemGuard does not run as
Task in a dummy loop but rather as a low-level
interrupt routine which is capable of trapping memory
thrashing even before exec might know of it and even
while task switching is forbidden. In fact the low-
memory area is checked each frame. Virtually no
processing time is wasted, the interrupt routine does
the check in about half a raster scan line's time. This
program was contributed by Ralf Thanner, who spent
three weeks programming & debugging it. In this program
Ralf uses some very delicate tricks to let his
interrupt routine work with Intuition alerts. Version

OPS5c OPS5c is a compiler for the expert system language
OPS5. The compiler takes OPS5 source code as input and
creates a C source code file to be compiled to create
an executable. Arbitrary C code may be linked with the
executable and executed as a result of firing rules.
The system's strong point is its speed and as a result
it sometimes has large executables and large memory
requirements. At least 1 Meg. of memory is suggested.
Binaries only for compiler and run-time library.
Version 1.08a. Requires a C compiler. Authors: Bernie
J. Lofaso, Jr, Dan Miranker and Arun Chandra.

and AmigaDOS pattern matching. It is pure
(residentable). It is intended to outperform all other
directory listers. Includes the additional utilities
ForEvery and Whichever. Release 1.2, includes source.
Author: Paul Kienitz.
FixCLI A tiny pure command which fixes problems with CLI's not
created by other CLI processes. A new CLI or Shell
created by such programs as PopCLI or DMouse gets no
path and no current directory. FixCLI very quickly and
efficiently gives a path to a CLI that does not have
one (it looks for other processes that have valid
paths) and sets the current directory as specified if
none is already set. Put it in your S:Shell-Startup
script. Includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz.
MoveSYS Reassigns SYS:, C:, S:, L:, LIBS:, DEVS:, and FONTS: to
a new disk or directory in one step. Can be used from
CLI or Workbench; just click it and shift-double-click
a disk or drawer icon. More flexible and robust than
some other programs written for the same purpose. It's
small and pure. Second release (the one on disk 224
worked from CLI only). Includes source. Author: Paul
Kienitz.
RunBack A very compact version of the popular utility for
starting a CLI process in the background, without
preventing the CLI window from closing. This version is
pure and only 468 bytes long. Requires the NULL:
device, which is included. Using NULL: makes it more
flexible and robust than older RunBacks. Can optionally
delay up to nine seconds after starting the command.
Includes source in assembly. Author: Paul Kienitz.

stuff for remembering multiple chunks of deleted text,
interfacing through Rexx with a terminal program,
displaying matching '(' characters when you press ')',
expanding abbreviations into phrases as you type,
easily shifting lines and blocks of text left or right,
improvements to several existing Uedit features, and
more. Author: Paul Kienitz.
V A front-end for Commodore's More or some other text
viewer that can be made resident. Can be used from
Workbench, greatly reducing disk loading time because V
is much smaller than More, which need not be loaded if
it is resident. From CLI, causes More to create a new
window, specified with an environment variable, rather
than using the CLI window. V is itself residentable.
Much improved since the version on disk 224, to which
it is only distantly related. Includes source in
assembly. Author: Paul Kienitz.

DataPlot A program that plots data and algebraic functions in
2D. The user simply clicks on an option screen to
select various options, such as type of marker, log or
linear axis, auto vs manual scaling, gridlines. The
macro language makes similar, repetitive plots easy to
do. Data points can be transformed by an algebraic
function prior to plotting. A macro can be
automatically executed upon startup-up. Plots in any
resolution from 320x200 to 640x400. Plots can be saved
as macro commands and IFF ILBM files. Prints directly
to Epson compatible printers, or to any Preferences
supported graphics printer via the PLT: device. This is

AnalyRimSrc An integration of the AnalytiCalc spreadsheet (disk
495) and the RIM-5 relational database management
system (disk 143). Integrates a spreadsheet with
hundreds of functions and 18000 by 18000 cell address
space, with a complete disk based DBMS, and functions
permitting one to move relations or selections of
relations in either direction between spreadsheet and
database. In this way, large relations can be stored on
disk, yet accessed as needed in the spreadsheet, from
whence they can be computed with or plotted. The
command language of RIM is fairly close to SQL and
documents for it are included. Also supports GnuPlot to
provide flexible plotting. A minimum of 2Mb of memory
is recommended, of which 750K must be contiguous.
Because the full distribution would not fit on a single
disk, it has been split onto two disks, with disk 593
containing the executable and needed "keypad" command
files, and disk 594 containing the source and
documentation. Author: Glenn C. Everhart et. al.

one. It is designed to make public screens easier to
use. Whenever a new screen is brought to the front,
this screen is examined. If it is a public screen, it
is made into the default automatically without having
to explicitly do it from within a public screen
manager. Thus, the current default public screen is
always the one which you have most recently brought to
the front, and applications which use the default
public screen will appear there. Version 1.0, binary
only. Author: Steve Koren
PKludge A mode promotion commodity for AmigaDos 3.0. It allows
any mode to be promoted to any other mode. Mode
promotion keyed from the screen name or title, and
resizing and moving screens during mode promotion. It
is useful to 1) promote all screens to a single scan
rate to avoid re-syncing on multisync monitors during
screen flipping, 2) use 800x600 or higher resolutions
with some applications which don't know how to open
those screens but can otherwise handle bigger screen
sizes, 3) use PAL:Productivity 640x400 mode instead of
DblNTSC:High Res Lace mode, since the productivity mode
tends to be more visible on some Amiga 4000's. Version
1.0, binary only. Author: Steve Koren
NiceMove Some different examples in C of MOUSEMOVE event
handling during high CPU or DMA usage. Version 1.00,
first release. Includes source and a sample program.
Author: Thies Wellpott
Sing Sing will read a text file (actually ANY file) and try
to "sing" the characters in it using internal simple
waveforms in 4 voices. Binary only. Author: Richard Lee
Stockton
Sound Sound sample player. Will play ANY file as sound.
Understands IFF, stereo, and fibronicci compression.
Can play direct from disk. Uses only 4k of chip ram.
Effects include fade and grow. Works from CLI or
WorkBench, all OS thru 3.0. Includes complete C source.
Author: Richard Lee Stockton
SourcOpt A little assembly language source optimizer. While most
assemblers have optimization, they optimize the
compiled code. One disadvantage of this however, is
when debugging code thru a disassembler or monitor, the
code you see differs from that you have written because
of the optimization. By optimizing the source first,
you can eliminate some of these differences. Version
1.0, binary only, CLI usage only. Author: Alexander
Fritsch

====================
VMB Demo version of VIDEO MUSIC BOX, a program designed to
provide an easy to learn and use facility that non-
musicians or beginning musicians can use to compose
original background music for their Amiga multimedia
productions. No prior music compositional knowledge is
required to generate basic musical styles from pre-
arranged music pattern templates and chord
progressions. Individuals having increased musical
backgrounds can use the many included editors to define
new chord-types, "revoice" chords, create new chord
progressions, perform basic sequence editing, and
create additional pattern templates. Supports both MIDI
Format 0 and IFF SMUS music file formats for
compatibility with all multimedia authoring programs.
Version 1.6, second major upgrade to version 1.0 on
disk number 660. This new version is AmigaDOS 2
compatible, allows unlimited pattern generation in a
single sequence, has improved musical dynamics, and
expanded MIDI. Requires 1 Meg. Author: D.T. Strohbeen

====================
Detache A very small and simple utility that will detache a
file from the file system. Note that this is completely
different than deleting a file. In particular, Detache
works even if the file system did not restart properly
because of a failed validation. This happens rather
frequently if the Amiga crashes during a write on a
hard disk partition: you get the dreaded "checksum
error on block xxx" requester, and no writes are
allowed to the partition. If you know the name of the
guilty file (the file the faulty block belongs to) you
can simply detache it, and the file system will be
happy to restart. Requires OS2.04, binary only. Author:
Sebastiano Vigna
Enforcer A tool to monitor illegal memory access for
68020/68851, 68030, and 68040 CPUs. This is a
completely new Enforcer from the original idea by Bryce
Nesbitt. It contains many new and wonderful features
and options and no longer contains any exceptions for
specific software. Enforcer can now also be used with
CPU or SetCPU FASTROM or most any other MMU-Kickstart-
Mapping tool. Major new output options such as local
output, stdout, and parallel port. Highly optimized to
be as fast as possible. This is version 37.26,
containing a bug fix to version 37.25 on disk number
754. Requires V37 of the OS or better and an MMU.
Author: Michael Sinz
Ls An update based wholly but loosely to the version 3.1
of Ls on disk number 236 by Justin McCormick. Includes

and Sz.rexx, Displays alphabetically sorted directory
with filesizes. CLI only. Author: Richard Lee Stockton
Wangle Very addictive "sliding-block" single player strategy
game. The object is to group four smaller squares of
the same color together in such a way as to form a
larger square. Once started in a direction, blocks
slide until they hit another block, a wall, or in some
cases, fall through the floor! Includes 50 levels and a
level editor. Binary only. Author: Peter Händel

CLI usage only. Author: Sebastiano Vigna
SetSystem A very small and simple 2.04-only utility which forces
the SYS_UserShell tag on each System() call. This means
that every application will use your user shell (for

PubChange PubChange is a commodity for AmigaDos 2.04. It isn't a
public screen manager, but it is useful when used in
conjunction with one. It is designed to make public
screens easier to use. Whenever a new screen is brought
to the front, this screen is examined. If it is a
public screen, it is made into the default
automatically without having to explicitly do it from
within a public screen manager. Thus, the current
default public screen is always the one which you have
most recently brought to the front, and applications
which use the default public screen will appear there.

user with a listwindow of pre-configured commands.
Ideal for those commands used infrequently enough that
you don't want a dock-icon cluttering up your WorkBench
for. Includes source for both English and German
versions. Author: Heinz Reinert
SuperDuper An exciting, high-speed disk copier and formatter.
Typical timings are 99s for a disk-to-disk verified
copy, or 38s for a four disk non-verified format. Also
available are buffering in RAM, on a hard disk image
file or on any sectorbased Amiga device, like RAD:,
VDO:, FMS:, etc. Real-time compression using the Xpk
standard allows to copy in one pass most disks on 1M
Amigas, especially in conjunction with a special
utility which "hides" external drives to the system
(but not to SuperDuper). Bells and whistles include
high density floppy support, voice, automatic date
increment, a list of the disks copied, and automatic
start of operations based on disk insertion/ejection
sensing. Works on any Amiga under 2.0 and beyond. The
changes from version 3.0 are mainly bug fixes and some
new features, namely optional simple refresh windows,
the new NoStartup switch, automatic source disk reads,
and better window management. Version 3.1, an update to
version 3.0 on disk number 903. Binary only, freeware.

APipe The `APipe-Handler' allows you to add the `APIPE:' DOS
device to your system. This device acts as a pipe
between two programs, but in a different manner than
the standard `PIPE:' device does. This handler
interprets the text after the `APIPE:' prefix as a
command line to execute, and the process/command which
opens the file indicated by the mention of `APIPE:' can
now read the standard output or write the standard
input of the program indicated by the command line
depending on whether the `APIPE:' file was opened for
reading or writing, respectively. Thus, the opening an
`APIPE:' file is analogous to the UNIX `popen()' call,
but it is more widely available to the user. Complete
source is included and can be used as an example of a
handler. Version 37.5, an update to version 37.4 on
disk number 783. Author: Per Bojsen

MultiFileSystem 1.1 An interface to other file systems
Thanks to the versatility of AmigaDOS, we are able to use many different
file systems on our disks. The most popular is of course CrossDOS (tm), but
many other file systems can be found in the PD.
Adding a new file system to the Amiga is simplicity itself: just copy a
file in L:, provide a suitable mountlist, and there you go.
This works flawlessy if every physical unit is accessed by a single file
system, but if multiple file systems share the same device, some problems
arise:
- You have to call the same unit with different names (e.g. DF0: and PC0:)
depending of the kind of disk inserted.
- When you insert a PC disk, the Workbench shows a DF0:???? icon, and vice
versa; this can be very annoying especially for owners of more than one
drive.
- When a file system is busy (for example during a DiskCopy), the other file
systems can still access the disk; this goes against the concept of
"inhibiting" a device.
MultiFileSystem solves all of these problems. It isn't a file system in the
usual way: it is an interface to other file systems. When you mount it, you
tell it which file systems it should use; afterwards, when a disk is
inserted, MultiFileSystem will recognize it and pass the commands to the
appropriate file system. This means that with a single device name, for
example DF0:, you can access any conceivable file system!
You are not limited to floppy drives, of course: I successfully installed
MultiFileSystem over a 128Mb magnetooptical drive.

AmiCDFS 37.5 CDROM fs, also reads Mac floppy & hd
AmiCDFileSystem is a file system which can read:
- ISO-9660 (w/ RockRidge extensions) and Macintosh HFS CD-ROMs
- Macintosh HFS floppy and hard disks
The ability to read Macintosh floppy and hard disks comes for free, since
they use the same file system used for HFS CD-ROMs.
This program was originally based on AmiCDROM 1.9 by Frank Munkert.
While the file system functions are mostly the original ones, the
packet handling routines have been completely re-written.
This file system can be installed on the Rigid Disk Block (RDB) of an hard
disk to automatically mount a Mac partition (you can even boot from it, if
you manage to put the necessary Amiga system files in it).
The code is reentrant and is shared among multiple instances of the file
system. This means that if you use AmiCDFileSystem on a CD-ROM drive, a
magneto-optical drive, two floppy drives and two hard disk partitions, like
a friend of mine does, only one copy will be loaded instead of six - saving
100K of memory.

This is yet another Boulderdash clone but this time it is inspired by the
Nordic mythology. Your task is to guide Balder - the god of light -
through groves filled with berserks and snakes. Collect rings, push
runestones and try to find the small passage to the next level.
This time you don't have to play alone. Get a helping hand from a friend
and I assure you the game will be easier as well as funnier.
The game comes with 40 levels and a level editor. Unfortunately the
levels are almost identical with those included in previous releases. The
only exception is that you can use them all in two player mode. If you
have made some own levels with the old level editor you can still use them
with this new game package in one player mode. To be able to use them
with two players you will have to load them into the level editor, place
entrances and exits for player two, and save them.
I hope you will have a good time!

MemMinister 1.1 monitors your memory-usage
MemMinister is a small tool, giving you information about the amount of free
memory at your system. It shows you independant values for chipmemory and
fastmemory, and of course even the total amount of free memory. MemMinister also
offers features like a snap-funktion, monitoring the memory-usage since the time
you snapped the values, and a flush-gadget, offering you an easy way to flush
your memory from all currently not used libraries, fonts, devices and more. It
is small, simple to use and very CPU-economical!

WipeOut! 1.3 The Ultimate non-commercial shoot'em up
Well, Wipe-Out! is the first game I've ever got finished. That
statement of course exludes numerous lame examples done by me
with programs like "Game Maker" or "S.E.U.C.K" during the past
10 years (on both Amiga and C=64, the only TRUE computers ever).
Wipe-Out! is of course 100% optimized METAL BANGING assembly.

db 2.3 Database with GadTool look
db is a small and fast database program that I wrote after having tested
numerous other PD database programs and always found something lacking or
irritating me. They might have dozzens of features not found in db, but
they lacked font sensitivity and a standard GUI look and OS 3.0 behaviour.
My main need was to keep record on addresses and telephone numbers of friends
and companies. Before this release db was fixed to be just an address and
telephone database, but this has changed now. The program is designed
to handle information of your choice. Currently you have to use a file
editor to specify the database fields and layout as there is no GUI for that.
Anyway that's a one time job, then you just USE the database and have fun.
Complete GUI support will probably only be included in a commercial product
I plan to call REG.
A partial list of db's features include:
o Dynamic memory handling. Number of records and fields only limited by
free memory.
o GadTool based, gives a standard look and feel.
o Mouse and keyboard driven.
o User definable fields and layout.
o Multiple views of the same database.
o Commodore's Clipboard for flexible interaction with other programs.
o AppWindow -just drag and drop database icons on db to load.
o Online MenuHelp -Press HELP key when selecting a menu item.
o Font sensitivity.
o ARexx
o ASL requesters for flexible loads and saves.
o Localized
o Dial numbers using a modem
o WB and Shell usage with Commodore's template parsing
o Fast and flexible find function using AmigaDOS patterns.
o Filter function.
o Fast and flexible sort function. Multiple sort orders can be specified.
o 'Export View' and two standard ASCII export features.

IFFMaster 1.3 Show IFF structure & chunk contents
IFF Master is a program that allows you to have a view inside the structure
of IFF files. It is not yet another picture viewer or sound sample player,
but it displays the internal entities (chunks) of a file. For example, the
headers of pictures (ILBM) or sound samples (8SVX) are displayed in clear,
so you can directly read the size and depth of the image or the sampling rate.
Current features (V 1.3) include:
- MUI application
- localized GUI (with AmigaOS 2.1 or later)
- Extensive chunk type library (currently 37 form types, 234 known chunks,
60 of these with comprehensive structure description)
- Chunk contents are presented alternatively as structure, text or hexdump
- Bit fields and enumeration types are displayed in clear
- Fixed point values are printed in decimal (e.g. 8SVX.VHDR.Volume)
- Callback hooks for special attributes, e.g. the Mode-ID
inside the CAMG chunk is de-referenced (e.g. "PAL: Hires").
- clipboard support
- chunk contents and partial FORMs can be saved
- AppWindow and AppIcon
Features new for V 1.3:
BUG prefs window: close gadget now functioning
BUG Cycle chain (TAB) now works in all windows
NEW new chunk types: IAND, IANM, DR2D, RGB8, RGBN, SPLT

OpaqueMove 1.0 An Opaque Window Movement Commodity
OpaqueMove is a commodity that provides opaque window movement for Intuition
windows. That is, instead of simply moving the outline of a window, the
entire window contents are moved as you move the mouse. The EGS window
system provides this capability, but does not extend it to standard Intuition
screens. Hence this commodity.
This commodity is intended for use with accelerated graphics cards such as
the @{i}GVP Spectrum. @{ui} Although it is possible to use it with standard
Amiga AGA screens, it is likely to be impractically slow except possibly in
single bitplane modes. However, there are various controls which allow
selection of the conditions under which windows should be moved opaquely, and
under which they should be moved as an outline.

ReNum 2.1 Changes the names of sequences of files
ReNum is a utility that changes the names of sequences of files. ReNum
is aimed at helping animators that wishes to transfer files, say from
Real3d to DPaint. Real3d calls IFF-files generated as an anim something
like this: Pic0, Pic1, ... (from now on called "Dynamic format"), while
DPaint wants multiple IFF-files to build an animation, to be in alpha-
betical order, often meaning you have to rename your pictures to Pic000,
Pic001, and so on ("Fixed format"). This can be very tedious, especially
if you have a hundred or more pictures. No more of that, because that's
exactly what ReNum does! ReNum can also convert files from Fixed to
Dynamic.
ReNum is also capable of changing the names (and not the framenumbers)
or the numbering of a sequence.

Anim3D 1.4 Plays anims written in special language
Anim3D is my first Amiga program longer than a few dozen lines of code and
was mainly to teach myself how to program a 'real' application for the Amiga.
Basically it plays vector movies that are written in a special programming
language that I designed.
The original idea was:
"Wouldn't it be neat if vector demos could be created and played using a
standard program, use the screenmode that you wanted, were smoother on
faster machines and multitasked properly?"
After all, we can't impress PC users from fast animation 'cos they have
faster processors, but we can beat them by making something totally
impossible through Windows ;-)
Anim3D is a real-time vector movie player for Workbench 3 machines. It has
three main features which I think most Amiga software (and demos) should
have nowadays:
1) It is extremely friendly to the OS and multitasks properly; I've
played animations whilst downloading files on the modem and been
playing a tracker module so I think I can safely say this :-)
2) Animations are played at the SAME speed whatever the machine is...
slower machines just have a lower frame update rate. This works fine
because the display is double-buffered (as you'd expect) so there are
no half drawn screens to be seen.
3) It can use any of the display modes available on the machine;
the same image is displayed on the screen whatever the resolution.
This allows those lucky A4000/040 owners to display anims in mega hi-res
while running at the same frame rate that an A1200 might run in lo-res.
It also makes use of a special dithering method that I worked out which
gives the appearance of more shades of each colour without slowing screen
rendering down. This does however require more chip memory than normal.
I have designed a language for creating these animations and some simple
demo anims have been included to give you an idea of what it can do. Take a
look at the animation files by all means (they are only ASCII text), but I
wouldn't try writing your own without any documentation!

DepackIFF 1.7 Depacks file packed by ByteRun algorithm
This program lets you depack any IFF ILBM file with BODY chunk
crunched by standard ByteRun algorithm which is always used by all
Amiga graphics programs (like DPaint, Brilliance, ADPro, Real) while
saving image, brushes and so on. I decided to code this, because
ByteRun is not so effective as XPK, LhA (but not always!). If you
want to repack images, you will reach the best results only when you
pack pure image data, and this is why this program was born and
should be useful for all the people wanting save own disk space, eg. BBS

MartinSoft Pengo ?.? Demo Game based on old Pengo game.
Pengo is a maze-game. The maze is made up of blocks of ice, which you can
push or melt. Blocks are melted by pushing a block that has another block
directly in front of it. If that sounds confusing (and it probably does),
play the game, and you'll understand what I meant.
The ice blocks that form the "border" around the maze can't be pushed or
melted.
Also, on some levels there are special gold blocks, which can't be moved.
On each level there are four enemies.
If an enemy catches you, you lose one life. Your weapon against the enemies
is the ice blocks; push an ice block onto an enemy, and the enemy will be
squashed (but it will re-appear after a while). If the level layout
makes it possible, try to "trap" the enemies into small spaces; that will
make it a piece of cake to squash them. Generally, trying to limit the ways
that the enemies can take (by pushing blocks to the right places) is a good
tactic. Learning the different movement patterns for the enemies is also
essential; the yellow ones are pretty easy to outsmart without understanding
how they move, but the red ones are professional escape artists, and
almost impossible to hit if you don't understand their "AI".
If you spend too much time on one level, a ghost will appear and start to
home in on you. The ghost can't be killed - but it will disappear as soon
as you get to the next level. If it catches you, you will lose one life, and
it will disappear for a while (the ghost, not the life :) ).
If it catches you while you're "invisible" to the enemies, it will simply
remove the invisibility and disappear - but it will re-appear very quickly.
The aim of the game is to defeat the evil Sarvebuk who awaits you on level
64. So the big question is: how do you get to the next level?
Getting to the next level can be achieved by either:
1. Squashing all enemies on the level with ice blocks.
2. Pushing the three ruby blocks together so that they form a horizontal or
vertical line.
3. Getting a warp bonus of some sort.
Method nr 1 is recommended, as it's the most fun.
Squashing many enemies with one block will give more score than squashing
them one by one.
There are also lots of bonuses and bonus systems in the game, but I won't
reveal them here (which would spoil the surprise). Find out about them
yourself!

Multiplot XLN-S 1.01 Intuitive data plotting program
Multiplot XLN is a fully intuitive data plotting program. It plots
data points as (x,y) co-ordinates with or without x or y error
bars. It can plot an unlimited number of sets with any number of data
points using colour, line type, line weight, point shape and point
size to represent the different sets. A set may be joined by a line or
plotted as discrete points. Data may be impulse plotted, scatter
plotted, or shown as a histogram or step graph. Additions to the data
may be made in the form of lines of best fit (logarithmic,
exponential, linear and polynomial) and data smoothing utilising
modified open b-splines or averaging filtration.
The input file for Multiplot is a simple textfile and my be created
in any ASCII text editor or saved from any spreadsheet. Multiplot
supports the clipboard, and data input may be achieved solely through
it. Multiplot has a full ARexx interface which provides potential for
a wide variety of data manipulations including statistical analysis.
Output may be in any of the following formats: IntroCAD, Draw, mCAD,
IFF, Revised Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language (HPGL/2), Encapsulated
Postscript (EPSF) or Postscript. The graph can be printed to any
workbench printer by transparent use of the PLT: device. Multiplot
directly supports the HP LaserJet III and Postscript laser printers
such as the Apple Laser printer.

AXDiff 1.0 Graphical comparison & merge utility
AXDiff is a graphical file comparison and merge utility. It allows
you to see files side by side with differences between the files
highlighted. You may move within the files looking at the differences
within context of the rest of the file. A merged file can be created
which contains the lines which do not differ between files along with
user-selected lines from the sections which differ. You can select
either no part, either part, or both parts of the sections which
differ to be written to the merged file. Selectable fonts, sizes, and
other options too.

Designer 1.50 GUI Creator for C & HSPascal, V1.42
The Designer is a tool which makes programming intuition interfaces far
easier. It allows you to create Windows and Menus which can then be turned
into source code by the Producers. At present there are two producers,
the CProducer and the PasProducer, more producers may become available in
the future. The Designer supports the importing of images which can then
be used in windows or menus as well as being placed in the produced source
code for your use. Menus are created using the GadTools library and
support V38+ features, text and image items are allowed, keyboard shortcuts
and mutual exclusion are supported along with all standard flags,
localization of menus is easily added. Menus are all NewLook menus in
V38+. Windows are the main part of the Designer. You can create all
standard GadTools Gadgets and intuition Boolean Gadgets with all standard
options. Text and Images can also be placed on the window as you choose.
Extensive options are available to edit the code produced which should cover
most eventualities, almost all tags for windows and gadgets are supported
including many V38+ tags. The Designer can produce IDCMP handling routines
for windows and menus and can create a main file which in many cases will
allow the production of an entire program, the programmer just has to fill
in the gaps. In V1.4 GadToolsBox files can now be imported to allow
enhancement of your previous creations. Full locale support is now
included to make programming in multiple languages as easy as possible.
Registered users can upgrade to the latest version by using the latest demo
version. Extensive on line help is available using amigaguide.library,
this must be available for this feature.

DataMasterDEMO ?.? Demo version of a Database program.
Data Master is a database program programmed for Amiga computers.
It's not the best database program for Amiga (the best ShareWare/
LicenseWare database program??), but it's cheap and specially made for
an average user.
In the program there are five different field types which are
string (text), integer, floating point, type (selection) and boolean
field types. In one record it can be up to 256 different fields and
the number of records is practically limited only by the size of the
free memory. Records can be sorted based on eight key fields.
You can search from the database those records which match the
search patterns given by the user (for example, all the records whose
first field's first letter is A). You can also search for text strings
from the whole database. Using Data Master it's possible to print the
database for printer or save it as an ASCII file to the disk. Number
fields can be displayed on the screen as graphic diagrams, and using
this function you can simply compare records. There is a separate
field editor for the creating of the fields. Records can be, of
course, moved, copied, deleted or cleared as a single record or as
a block which includes many records.

CPUs, 6888x FPUs and 68851 MMU (of course, the 030, 040 and 060 MMUs are
also supported). It requires OS2.04 (V37) as a minimum and does no longer
support older operating systems! (Kick 1.x owners: Get PhxAss V3.97)
Most important features:
o Fast: 15000-30000 lines per minute with standard Amigas, 50000-200000
with A4000/040.
o Symbolic and Source Level Debugging.
o Automatic generation of executables (if possible).
o Small Code and Small Data support (also support for __MERGED sections).
o Listing file, Cross Reference Listing, Equates file.
o Complete floating point support: You can use complex floating point
expressions, including float functions (sine, logarithm, square root,
power, etc.), everywhere in your source, e.g. defining float EQUates or
SETs.
o Switches for nine different optimizations.
o Locale symbols (xxx$ and .xxx type).
o Support for Motorola's old and new operand style (even in 68000 mode).
o locale.library usage (english, german, polish).
o Nearly all directives of the most popular assemblers like Seka, DevPac or
AS (Aztec) are supported. Examples: INCBIN, INCDIR, CODE_C, REPT, RS,
RSRESET, EQUR, REG, OFFSET, XDEF, XREF, PUBLIC, ...
o Further development and support is guaranteed for years, because I'll
*never* change my system (Amiga forever!).
o Finally: Although Shareware, PhxAss is completely functional!
You will find four different versions of PhxAss in this distribution:
1. PhxAss: The standard 680x0,FPU,MMU macro assembler.
2. SmallPhxAss: This is a 68000-only version without floating point support.
3. FreePhxAss: This program is FREEWARE! It is intended for developers of
PD-Compilers, who want to include PhxAss in their compiler package.
4. GigaPhxAss: Identical to PhxAss, but source codes are not limited to
65535 lines. Quite useful for assembling Reassembler outputs.
PhxAss is SHAREWARE. A registration will cost you 25 DM or 15$. In return
you will receive the latest update and the right to ask me for a new update
whenever you want.

FetchRefs 1.1 AutoDoc/C-Asm-E include look-up tool.
FetchRefs is (yet another) utility to quickly look up stuff in AutoDocs

from your editor when the cursor is at an unknown word. Then you get
another window with an AutoDoc or include file reference that describes
this word (if it IS described at all, of course).
With support for both AutoDocs and C, Assembler, and E include files
most programmers should not need feel overlooked. ARexx scripts are
provided for well known editors: AmokEd, CygnusEd, DME, GoldED, and
TurboText. Due to the ARexx interface, support for other editors is only
a new ARexx script away!
Other advantages include wild card support, optionally case insensitive
search, a powerful GUI driven index file generator, support for
"TagList", "Tags" and "A" postfixes to function names and a window with
a list of possibilities if you search for something that several
references match.

Triton 1.2 An object oriented GUI creation system.
Triton is a standard Amiga shared runtime library. Triton makes it
much easier to create good looking graphical user interfaces (GUIs) than

The most important features are:
* Object oriented system
* Automatically font sensitive, font adaptive
* Automatic keyboard shortcuts for default window actions
* *Really* easy to use
* Beautiful customizable AmigaOS3.x look
* Comes as a freely distributable shared library
* Size! Though Triton is very powerful, it is a shared library of
less than 50KB. You don't need any startup tools, BOOPSI classes
or other things. It's the Triton among the minnows of GUI creation
systems ;)
* Resizability of windows wherever applicable
* A Preferences editor which allows you to customize the look and
feel of all Triton GUIs
By using Triton you don't have to worry about otherwise very
time-consuming things like font-sensitivity and resizability of your
windows.

DirMenu 0.9ß Access files easily with pop up menus
Dir Menu is a pop up based file selector. You simply press a hotkey
and a menu will pop up on current screen, showing all disk volumes you
have. Then select a volume, and it's root directory will appear. Then
select any file on your directory, and Dir Menu will execute selected
file according to its type
With Dir Menu you can instantly and quickly browse throught directory
trees on your disk drives, easily take a look at a picture anywhere on
your disk, read any text without worrying how to load a text shower
first, look into a lha archive by simply selecting that archive file
etc.
You can configure what Dir Menu should do on any type of file you will
select. You can also configure your favorite directories and files to
appear on the first display (when you press a hotkey).
Dir Menu will recognize almost every known type of files. It uses
WhatIs library, and that means if there is any type of file not
already configured you can configure a new type, and Dir Menu will
remember it for ever!

Scorched_Tanks 1.77 A tank warfare game for 2 to 4 players.
Scorched Tanks is a tank warfare game where 1 to 4 human players or
computer controlled opponents, take turns at buying fancy weapons and
shooting them at each other. The more damage a player causes another,
the more money they get. The more money a player receives, the larger
the weapons they can buy. This is a very simple concept, but
extremely addictive!
Scorched Tanks is related to a very popular game called Scorched Earth
on MS-Dos machines. I've only played Scorched Earth maybe five times
ever. But it impressed me so much that I decided that the Amiga
needed a version too. Scorched Tanks is very similar yet VERY
different to the MS-Dos game.

ColConq 1.34f Space strategy game for 1 or 2 persons
Colonial Conquest is a space-strategy game for one or two persons.
The basic idea and concept have been heavily influenced by the
shareware game "Conquest" and the Microprose game "Civilization". The
aim of the game is to spread your civilization through the 26
earth-like planets of the universe map and to defend it from other
civilizations by building weapons and war ships. Unfortunately - like
all half-realistic simulations and strategy games - Colonial Conquest
will reward primitive destructive behavior and colonial instincts
without leaving much room for cooperative actions and peaceful living.
Take it as a game!

PicBoot 2.6 Displays picture during bootup
Have you removed all output in your 2.0+ startup, and only see a

If so, PicBoot is certainly a program for you. What it will do is to

that picture. As soon as the Workbench screen appears (or you press any

BrowserII 3.0 Directory maintenance utility
It is a multi-window file-manager. It is based on drag and drop just like
workbench. In fact, it is exactly like workbench in text mode. It is
fully asynchronous. That is to say, you can perform several copies,
delete, directory scan,... at the same time. You can pause or stop
running processes. Pressing [ESC] pauses all processes (accidental
operations). It is small, about 150 KBytes (not compressed of course),
including the whatis.library, a powerfull library that identify file
types. Does not use much memory when idle (may use more while copying).
Use pooled memory even under WB2.0 to minimize fragmentation. It is fast.
It has an intelligent iconification, directory tree, archive support,
window snapshot and an intelligent buffered copy process which makes it a
lot faster than standard copy commands/tools when source & destination
directories are on the same device unit. You can copy a complete 880 Kb
floppy with only 1 drive in 1 pass without using RAM disk as a tmp
storage. Copies even continue while iconified. And at last, it is
powerfull and highly configurable. It is ShareWare. Once registered, you
get a key file which is valid forever. if you are not registered (you
don't have the key file), the about requester will popup from time to
time, but BrowserII stay fully functionnal.

UnDel 1.1 Very fast file undeleting utility
AmigaDos and its filesystem have been released some years ago. During
this long period, CBM didn't release any kind of tool which would be
able to check and repair disks and recover deleted files. There are
many third-party utilities capable of doing such a job, but they are
usually terribly slow and they don't support all standard filesystems.
Features:
- Supports any standard filesystem - OFS / FFS + DirCache /
INTL mode
- Very fast (only free blocks are scanned, written in assembly etc.)
- Special option for systems with small amount of memory
- Nice user interface in shell window ;-)
(If some non-standard console is detected, new CON: window
is opened.)
- Recovered files are copied to another device
- Protection bits and file note are also recovered
- UNDEL is pure and can be made resident

OpaqueMove 1.1 An Opaque Window Movement Commodity
OpaqueMove is a commodity that provides opaque window movement for Intuition
windows. That is, instead of simply moving the outline of a window, the
entire window contents are moved as you move the mouse. The EGS window
system provides this capability, but does not extend it to standard Intuition
screens. Hence this commodity.
This commodity is intended for use with accelerated graphics cards such as
the @{i}GVP Spectrum. @{ui} Although it is possible to use it with standard
Amiga AGA screens, it is likely to be impractically slow except possibly in
single bitplane modes. However, there are various controls which allow
selection of the conditions under which windows should be moved opaquely, and
under which they should be moved as an outline.

ProNET 1 Installs a network between 2 Amigas
ProNET is a hardware/software combination that installs a small network
between two and NOT more Amigas. This can be used to exchange data from
both Amiga's devices. The difference between ParNet, written by Matthew
Dillon and others, and ProNET is that you can mount the other Amiga's
devices as if they were present on this machine, that means you don't have
to access the other 'DF0:' indirectly by using 'NET:df0/...' but you can
mount it as e.g. 'DF2:' on this Amiga. The other device is emulated
PERFECTLY, so that you won't notice that it exists on the other machine in
fact - You can e.g. access a disk in the other 'DF0:' by it's name instead
of having to use 'DF2:', then you can get full information about the status
(% full etc.) - just like as it was a real device in your first Amiga.
Of course there are extra programs supplied known from ParNET, with which
you can start commands on the other Amiga or just talk between them.
Full developer information is available for programmers that want to code
extra tools using the pronet.device.

DiskSpare 3.0 stores more data on disks faster
DiskSpare is a completion or replacement of the trackdisk.device.
It lets you store more data on your disks faster than usual.
For this a custom mfm format is used. -> No online compression !
The capacities are:
- 984K with DD disks (normally 880K)
- 1968K with HD disks (normally 1760K)
Diskspare.device requires Kickstart Version 2.0 or higher.
If you want to test diskspare.device (DSD from now on), simply
click on the 'QuickTest' icon. The script mounts a drive 'DS0:'
on Unit 0 (your DF0: drive) with 984K capacity. To format the
disk, open a shell window and type: 'format drive ds0: name test'
<return>. If you mount any device after 'LoadWB' you need the
shell to format a disk. If you mount DSD during boot, you can
use the Workbench format as for DFX. After formatting, you should
be able to use the disk like any other disks.

SuperDuper 3.13 High-speed disk copier and formatter
SuperDuper is an exciting, high-speed disk copier and formatter. Typical

non-verified format. Also available are buffering in RAM, on a hard disk
image file or on any sector-based Amiga device, like RAD:, VDO:, FMS:, etc.
Real-time compression using the Xpk standard allows to copy in one pass most
disks on 1M Amigas, especially in conjunction with a special utility which
"hides" external drives to the system (but not to SuperDuper). Bells and
whistles include high density floppy support, voice, automatic date

based on disk insertion/ejection sensing. SuperDuper 3.13 is freeware and
works on any Amiga under 2.0 and beyond.

ACE 2.3 FreeWare Amiga BASIC compiler + extras
ACE is a FreeWare Amiga BASIC compiler which, in conjunction with A68K
and Blink produces standalone executables.
The language defines a large subset of AmigaBASIC but also has many
features not found in the latter such as: turtle graphics, recursion,
SUBs with return values, structures, arguments, include files, a
better WAVE command which allows for large waveforms, external
references, named constants and a variety of other commands and
functions not found in AmigaBASIC.
New features in version 2.0 include: gadgets, three standard requester
types, serial I/O and menus (with optional command-keys for menu
items). New commands and functions for this version include EXIT FOR,
PTAB, SPC, DEF FN, ON ERROR and ERR (these last two handle file and
serial I/O at present). INPUT and PRINT can now be used transparently
for all screen/window combinations.
All user-defined windows are now fully-configurable and may be used in
conjunction with screens as per AmigaBASIC. Window close event
trapping is also a new feature.
In addition to event trapping, ACE now supports WAITing for both menus
and gadgets. Waiting is more operating-system-friendly than event
trapping.
A simple graphical front-end (Integrated Development Environment) is
also provided with the archive. This is written in ACE.

xMore is currently bigger than I planned it to be, but people don't seem to
want small programs, they want features! So, what do you get?
+ light speed search! No loss of speed even if case insensitive
and/or backwards!
+ wildcard search. Searching doesn't slow down if only "?" is
used (in fact it is FASTER when "?" is used).
+ hex mode.
+ FAST scrolling. Should beat Most (pun intended) textreaders
using customized Text() function with custom screen.
+ displays ANSI styles (no colors) and some backspace-styles
+ variable TAB size! (now you can read those funny #?.c
files with too much TABs ;)
+ can start one of the four possible editors.
+ freely definable keys!
+ font sensitivity, user definable font.
+ definable window dimensions, defaults to display size.
+ opens on any public screen or opens it's own screen.
+ multiple files from shell, Workbench and file requester.
+ pipe support.
+ clipboard support.
+ Support for Directory Opus compatibility.
+ character conversion.
+ lots of small details like default zoomed size exactly one
line high. Small things make the difference!
+ can be made resident (has been pure from day one, but who
remembers to mention everything)
+ OS 2.04 required (sorry, v36 users. There just is too much
functions in RKMs with text 'this function is broken in V36'
that I didn't bother dodging them. To pre-2.0 users xMore is
Yet Another Reason To Update. Come on guys, do you use CP/M
at work or what ? ;)
+ Can read files containig more than 65535 lines! With hex mode
this is MUST (256K+ file in narrow window = lots of lines!).
(This would be suitable place to mention certain well-known
directory utility and another XPK-supporting reader which both
assume no-one has REALLY big files, but that could give offence
to JP and UR, so I won't)

PPrefs 2.0 Screenmode promotion utility
PPrefs is a screenmode promotion utiltity which allows you to promote every
available screenmode of your system (including HAM and EHB modes) to
another mode. You simply select a source and a destination mode and every
program that wants to open a screen with the source mode, instead will open
a screen with the destination mode. If you want that some very special
programs get their very special screenmode or don't get promoted at all,
besides that "mode to mode" promotion, PPrefs supports task/screen specific
promotion, as well..address

CX is a replacement of the original "Exchange" program from the

of removing all commodities in the system. And I always wanted to
write a commodity.
One of my goals was to be compatible in the using to the original

use the cursor keys to move around in the list of commodities and
other things.

PolyEd 1.242 User-friendly, powerfull text editor
PolyEd is one of the most user friendly text editors for the Amiga.
It is kept small and easy, but has all the features.
PolyEd has all features, needed to edit texts, but no other features,
like clocks, memory displays, calculators ...
As the Amiga has a great multitasking operating system, it is, in my
opinion unnecessary to put all those things into one single program,
but better to set up one's desired environment by some different
programs (which can be further improved by arexx).
In other words, if you need a calculator, parallel to PolyEd, why not
run the one from the 'utilities' drawer or one from the public domain
pool.
Via the arexx-port, centering, formating and functions you can think
of, can be added to PolyEd too.

interface has been remarked on by several people for its clarity.

Reminder 5.9 A nice reminder utility
Reminder keeps an eye on a list of messages and commands, which the
user (you) wants to be shown and/or executed at a specific time or
time intervals. Any or all of the timeparameters can be wildcards.
Once every minute the list is checked, and if a match between the
systemclock and a time specification is found a window will pop up,
and the message(s) will be shown and/or the command(s) will be
executed.
Because Reminder is supposed to run as a backgroundprocess, it is
designed to be memory efficient and use as little CPU time as possible.
Should you however be the owner of an unexpanded A500, or for any other
reason NOT want the program to run continuous, it is possible to make it
show all messages for today at once, and then die (when using this
option no commands will be executed).

APIPE 37.7 Alternative pipe handler (incl. source)
The `APipe-Handler' allows you to add the `APIPE:' DOS device to your
system. This device acts as a pipe between two programs, but in a
different manner than the standard `PIPE:' device does. This handler
interprets the text after the `APIPE:' prefix as a command line
to execute, and the process/command which opens the file indicated
by the mention of `APIPE:' can now read the standard output or write
the standard input of the program indicated by the command line
depending on whether the `APIPE:' file was opened for reading or
writing, respectively. Thus, the opening an `APIPE:' file is analogous
to the UNIX `popen()' call, but it is more widely available to the user.
Complete source is included and can be used as an example of a handler.

ZShell 2.2 Small, fast shell with CFN and review.
ZShell is a small (26K), fast and powerful SHELL with many (64) builtin
commands. So it replaces most of the commands in the C: directory
what effects in saving disk space and reducing disk accesses. There
is no way around ZShell for those who do not have a harddisk or still
have Kickstart 1.2/1.3 . But it is useful for those with a better
Kickstart and/or harddisk, too, because for example it has powerful
editing & history, filenamecompletion, review buffer and a lovely
LIST, DIR and INFO command (very sensible ones !). I tried to made
usage similar to the AmigaDOS Shell for easy using.
Some of the features:
* Freeware, no payment required.
* Usage is similar (or better) to the standard AmigaDOS shell.
* Supports the standard housekeeping commands which are builtin,
so no disk access is necessary.
eg. list, dir, cd, rename, makedir, delete, copy, path, info, type
* A total of 64 builtin commands.
* About 26K small (pure assembler code, source included).
* Starting from Workbench or CLI/Shell possible.
* Filenamecompletion by simply pressing TAB.
* Review-buffer to see what scrolled out of the window.
* Command line editing better than KS2.0 .
* Command and Function key aliasing.
* DIR and LIST both sort (by default) and show filesize.
* Simple 'MORE' type text viewer.
* Some commands and features for debugging system/programs.
* Online HELP function and AmigaGuide documentation with examples.
* Has a kind of Memory-Clock with alarm.
* Colourful output, can be reduced to one colour.

AssignWedge 1.4 An AssignX type clone
On the Amiga, many programs require a particular logical device name or
assignment to point to a drawer or volume to find their data. If you forget
to place such an assignment in your User-Startup file or take care of it by
hand you will sooner or later see the familiar "Please insert volume ... in
any drive" requester popping up. AssignWedge `wedges' into the operating
system routine responsible for bringing up this requester, giving you the
choice to take one of the following actions using the mouse:
· Retry
If you have taken care of the assignment or device yourself,
this will cause the action that brought up the requester
to be repeated.
· Assign
This will create an assignment under the name displayed in
the requester. You just have to pick the drawer to tie it to.
· Mount
Assuming that the device displayed in the requester can be
mounted, this will execute the AmigaDOS `Mount' command
and then repeat the action that brought up the requester.
· Deny
This effectively denies the program that brought up this
requester to refer to the device in question. Whenever
it refers to it, no requester will appear asking you to
insert the volume in question. Instead, the program to
ask for the volume will see any attempt to access the
volume failing.
· Cancel
Denies the program request to access the volume. It's
as simple as that.

computer running Kickstart 2.04 or higher. Its features include:
* Fast built-in VT-220 terminal emulation
* Support for custom terminal emulation modules following the `XEM
2.0' standard
* Operates in any display environment, supports all screen display
modes
* Support for file transfer modules following the `XPR' standard
* File- and printer-capturing functions
* Review-buffer support
* Powerful phone book and dialing functions
* `Amiga User Interface Style Guide' conformant user interface
* Online-help (requires AmigaGuide package)
* Built-in `ARexx' interface
* File upload list, which permits selecting the files to be
transferred before the upload is started.
* Login script learn mode.
* Built-in keyword/response parser which makes it possible to have
`term' respond to BBS prompts and such with the user name,
password, etc. without having to program the ARexx interface.
* Interface for external programs to rendezvous with `term', taking
over serial I/O processing (such as `HydraCom').
Due to it's size, we had to split Term and spread it over 4 Disks:

Yak 2.0ß8 A multipurpose commodity
Yak stands for "Yet Another Kommodity" and is a mouse/window manipulation
program along the same lines as DMouse, MightyMouse etc.
Yak has the following features:
o AutoPoint (sunmouse) that only activates when mouse stops
can also specify which screens to include/exclude.
(Compatible with popup-menu type programs)
o AutoPop windows (bring them to front) when they're
auto-activated;
o KeyActivate windows (when key pressed);
o Activate windows when menu button pressed;
o Click windows to front or back; may also specify which
screens/windows to include/exclude.
o Cycle screens with mouse;
o Mouse and Screen blanking (hotkey blanking too);
o Extensible hotkey system (like FKey's) with actions to:
Execute a CLI Command or an ARexx script;
Insert text (with embedded hotkeys);
Insert date (in custom format if locale present);
Close/Zip/Shrink/Enlarge windows;
Move/Cycle screens and windows;
Activate Workbench;
Blank display;
Pop up a palette on front screen (needs reqtools);
Menu shortcut
o KeyClick with adjustable volume;
o No Click option (for drives).
o Wildstar option (like StarBurst) lets you use '*' as wildcard.
o Optional on-screen AppIcon to bring up preferences window.
Look familiar? It's a combination of the AutoPoint, ClickToFront, Blanker
and IHelp/FKey standard commodities (on the Extras disk) with a hint of
KCommodity and DMouse thrown in.
Fully localized when running OS 2.1 or more!
And it's quite small!

ACE 2.35 Update (V2.35) of Amiga BASIC compiler
ACE is a FreeWare Amiga BASIC compiler which, in conjunction with A68K
and Blink produces standalone executables.
The language defines a large subset of AmigaBASIC but also has many
features not found in the latter such as: turtle graphics, recursion,
SUBs with return values, structures, arguments, include files, a
better WAVE command which allows for large waveforms, external
references, named constants and a variety of other commands and
functions not found in AmigaBASIC.
New features in version 2.0 include: gadgets, three standard requester
types, serial I/O and menus (with optional command-keys for menu
items). New commands and functions for this version include EXIT FOR,
PTAB, SPC, DEF FN, ON ERROR and ERR (these last two handle file and
serial I/O at present). INPUT and PRINT can now be used transparently
for all screen/window combinations.
All user-defined windows are now fully-configurable and may be used in
conjunction with screens as per AmigaBASIC. Window close event
trapping is also a new feature.
In addition to event trapping, ACE now supports WAITing for both menus
and gadgets. Waiting is more operating-system-friendly than event
trapping.
A simple graphical front-end (Integrated Development Environment) is
also provided with the archive. This is written in ACE.

PhxAss 4.14 Highly optimizing macro assembler
PhxAss V4.xx is a highly optimizing macro assembler for Motorola's 680x0
CPUs, 6888x FPUs and 68851 MMU (of course, the 030, 040 and 060 MMUs are
also supported). It requires OS2.04 (V37) as a minimum and does no longer
support older operating systems! (Kick 1.x owners: Get PhxAss V3.97)
Most important features:
o Fast: 15000-30000 lines per minute with standard Amigas, 50000-200000
with A4000/040.
o Symbolic and Source Level Debugging.
o Automatic generation of executables (if possible).
o Small Code and Small Data support (also support for __MERGED sections).
o Listing file, Cross Reference Listing, Equates file.
o Complete floating point support: You can use complex floating point
expressions, including float functions (sine, logarithm, square root,
power, etc.), everywhere in your source, e.g. defining float EQUates or
SETs.
o Switches for nine different optimizations.
o Locale symbols (xxx$ and .xxx type).
o Support for Motorola's old and new operand style (even in 68000 mode).
o locale.library usage (english, german, polish).
o Nearly all directives of the most popular assemblers like Seka, DevPac or
AS (Aztec) are supported. Examples: INCBIN, INCDIR, CODE_C, REPT, RS,
RSRESET, EQUR, REG, OFFSET, XDEF, XREF, PUBLIC, ...
o Further development and support is guaranteed for years, because I'll
*never* change my system (Amiga forever!).
o Finally: Although Shareware, PhxAss is completely functional!
You will find four different versions of PhxAss in this distribution:
1. PhxAss: The standard 680x0,FPU,MMU macro assembler.
2. SmallPhxAss: This is a 68000-only version without floating point support.
3. FreePhxAss: This program is FREEWARE! It is intended for developers of
PD-Compilers, who want to include PhxAss in their compiler package.
4. GigaPhxAss: Identical to PhxAss, but source codes are not limited to
65535 lines. Quite useful for assembling Reassembler outputs.
PhxAss is SHAREWARE. A registration will cost you 25 DM or 15$. In return
you will receive the latest update and the right to ask me for a new update
whenever you want.

Puzzle 1.3 Try to put 16 color images back together
This is a simple puzzle game. You have square pieces and you move
them around to make the picture. It is all mouse driven. You can
show the picture (remember to press the left mouse button to return
to the puzzle) It is a simple program that doesn't keep track of
whether you have completed the puzzle or not. Also, I never got
around to putting in double buffering to get rid of the slight
flashes. Oh well.
You can use any picture you want so long as it is 320x200 and 16
colors with the lower 4 colors being unused. The program will
automatically set the lower four colors to:
color # DPaint Color ADPro Color
0 0,0,0 0,0,0
1 9,9,9 153,153,153
2 14,14,14 238,238,238

of the GIF8?a standard have been ignored)
o Uses async file reading for greater performance - on an A1200 will
load a picture the same speed off of floppy as off of hard drive!
o 100% Assembly language, very optimised.
o Custom chunky to planar conversion, that is reasonably fast
(a version using WritePixelLine8() runs about 50% the speed of
this version)
o Now works with all 68000 series CPU's (i hope)
o Its FREE! (this is of course the best bit)
Main limitations: (hey, its not _perfect_ after all)
o OM_WRITE BOOPSI method not yet implemented. Expect this in a future
release.
o Only decodes pictures with a global colour table. Most gif loaders
do the same, and most writers write them.
o Ignores any local colour tables (but still decodes picture). Could
lead to a bad palette.

db 2.5 Database with GadTool look
db is a small and fast database program that I wrote after having tested
numerous other PD database programs and always found something lacking or
irritating me. They might have dozzens of features not found in db, but
they lacked font sensitivity and a standard GUI look and OS 3.0 behaviour.
My main need was to keep record on addresses and telephone numbers of
friends and companies. Before v2.0 db was fixed to be just an address
and telephone database, but that has changed. The program is designed
to handle information of your choice. Currently you have to use a file
editor to specify the database fields and layout as there is no GUI for
that. Anyway that's a one time job, then you just USE the database and
have fun.
Complete GUI support will probably only be included in a commercial product
I plan to call REG.
A partial list of db's features include:
o Dynamic memory handling. Number of records and fields only limited by
free memory.
o GadTool based. (Use fields of string, checkbox and cycle type)
o Mouse and keyboard driven.
o User definable fields and layout.
o Multiple views of the same database.
o Commodore's Clipboard for flexible interaction with other programs.
o AppWindow -just drag and drop database icons on db to load.
o Online MenuHelp -Press HELP key when selecting a menu item.
o Font sensitivity.
o ARexx
o ASL requesters for flexible loads and saves.
o Localized
o Dial numbers using a modem or loudspeaker
o WB and Shell usage with Commodore's template parsing
o Fast and flexible find function using AmigaDOS patterns.
o Filter function.
o Fast and flexible sort function.
Multiple sort orders can be specified.
o 'Export View' and two standard ASCII export features.
o Automatic ASCII import (tab-separated ASCII)

ZShell 2.5 Small, fast shell with CFN and review.
ZShell is a small (31K), fast and powerful Shell with many (65)
builtin commands. So it replaces most of the commands in the C:
directory (like LIST, COPY etc.) what effects in saving disk space
and reducing disk accesses. There is no way around ZShell for
those who do not have a harddisk or still have Kickstart 1.2/1.3 .
Some of the features:
* Freeware, no payment required !
* Usage is similar (or better) to the standard AmigaDOS shell.
* Supports the standard housekeeping commands which are builtin,
so no disk access is necessary.
eg. list, dir, cd, assign, delete, copy, move, path, info, type
* A total of 65 builtin commands.
* About 31K small (pure assembler code, source included).
* Starting from Workbench (!) or CLI. No installation needed.
* File name completion by simply pressing TAB; shows all matches.
* Review buffer to see again what scrolled out of the window.
* Some commands and debugging features for programmers.
* Online Help function and AmigaGuide documentation with examples.
* Command line editing better than OS2.0/3.0 Shell.
* Support of OS2.0+ and OS3.0+ specific features.
* Wild cards and recursive processing.
* Real RUN and NEWCLI command that reenters ZShell quickly.
* DIR and LIST both sort (by default) and show filesizes.
* Application-Window/-Icon
* Can open window on own screen
* 100% script compatibility
* Can create and show Hard- and Softlinks.

Reminder 6.0 A nice reminder utility
Reminder keeps an eye on a list of messages and commands, which the
user (you) wants to be shown and/or executed at a specific time or
time intervals. Any or all of the timeparameters can be wildcards.
Once every minute the list is checked, and if a match between the
systemclock and a time specification is found a window will pop up,
and the message(s) will be shown and/or the command(s) will be
executed.
Because Reminder is supposed to run as a backgroundprocess, it is
designed to be memory efficient and use as little CPU time as possible.
Should you however be the owner of an unexpanded A500, or for any other
reason NOT want the program to run continuous, it is possible to make it
show all messages for today at once, and then die (when using this
option no commands will be executed).

LazyBench 1.20 Launches applications from a ListView
LazyBench is the perfect solution for lazy people with a hard disk
crammed full of goodies, which are too difficult to reach because
they are buried away in drawers inside drawers, inside drawers,
inside drawers... LazyBench installs as a Commodity and quietly
waits in the background. From then on, you can use its hot key to
pop up its window and effortlessly launch your favourite applications
(Tools or Projects) from a ListView.
LazyBench is 100% OS compliant and has been extensively tested with
tools like Enforcer and Mungwall, has a real font adaptative GUI with
a dynamic layout engine, supports Locale, virtual and public screens,
third parties graphics boards, and is fully userconfigurable.
Usually these features come at a price, in terms of executable size,
performance, or both, but not in this case: LazyBench is just 16472
bytes long, works well even with a plain 68000 CPU, and doesn't need
any custom libraries, handlers or devices that aren't already a part
of the Amiga's operating system.

ForceIcon 1.8 Substitute Icon images and positions
ForceIcon is an utility mainly for users of CDRom drives
or users of networking software capable of sharing devices
and icons. Since one can not snapshot the position of a
volume`s icon (on read only media), nor replace it by a
user-defined one, I wrote this utility. ForceIcon allows
you to set the position of a disk`s icon and/or replace
it by a different image/icon which doesn`t have to be a
disk.info file. All types of ".info" files may be selected.
Special features include inheritance of device specific
settings, specifying the root drawer`s size/position
and display flags/modes. ForceIcon may even change the look

supports an input/output history you may configure so that
you may re-insert previously entered expressions/results.
History entries may be copied to a userdefiniable clipboard
unit. It features various display/output bases such as decimal,
hexadecimal, octal, and binary and of course calculation sizes
ranging from 8 Bit to 32 Bit width. Angles may be displayed as
radians, degrees, or grads. MUIProCalc offers an ARexx port
you may use to calc expressions externally. These commands
are able to return TeX compatible output such as
"1\cdot 10^{-5}". It comes with two example scripts for use
with CED Pro.

WindowKey 1.04 Controls windows via keyboard
WindowKey is yet another input helper program. The job of those programs
is well known: they activate, bring to front, push to back, zoom, etc...
any window or screen (in the Intuition sense of the word) on user request.
Lots of programs exist that do that, including Commodores'FKey provided on
the workbench disk, but none of them had a user interface as powerful and
were as flexible as WindowKey. The interface for WindowKey was directly
reproduced from that of my other program Injector. The reason why I chose
to make two different programs instead of including the features of
WindowKey in Injector is that you can use either program without the other,
which sounds quite normal since their jobs are completely different (this
is one reproach to other input helper programs which tend to do everything
and end up doing nothing).
Another reason to the existence of WindowKey is the possibility to control
Intuition only from the keyboard, instead of having to hunt for a mouse
hidden under a pile of paper when wanting to change the active window.
To make this work, WindowKey has its own language, made of keywords, with
or without arguments enclosed in parentheses. You will have to read the
references sections for further informations.

AmigaBase 2.1 Very powerful programmable db with GUI
AmigaBase is not a relational database with SQL interface or something
like this. AmigaBase is a hierarchical programmable database.
Nevertheless, or just because, AmigaBase is ideal for managing
music cassettes, videos, addresses, etc. Complex applications like
a finance manager with automatic printing of transfer forms
and writing client accounts is no problem for AmigaBase, too.
A project consists of one or several records. A record is displayed
by a rectangle with a colored border and a titlebar. The record
name is displayed in the title bar. A record can be placed beside or
within annother one (hierarchy).
In records you can place variables which are used for data input and
display.
Data is organized in datasets. For each record you can allocate
any number of datasets (only limited by available memory).
Datasets can be ordered by several keys.
A filter allows the selection of some datasets.
A print menu allows printing of datasets.
With a search requester it is easy to find certain datasets.
AmigaBase offers two display modes: form and listing.
In form display all records are displayed in several windows. In
each record exactly one dataset is shown.
In listing display all dataset of a specific record are displayed
in a scrolling list in a window.
AmigaBase has two operating modes: working mode and installing mode.
In working mode you can work with your project, input data, start
programs, etc.
In installing mode you build your data structure. You can define
new variables, change and delete them. Variables can be of the type
BOOLEAN (boolean values), CHOICE (one item out of many items),
INTEGER (integer values), REAL (floating point values),
STRING (any text), DATE (date values), TIME (time values),
or MEMO (unlimited multi line text). Additionally there is the
program button type which is only used to start AmigaBase programs.
Furthermore you can define, change and delete texts. Texts are only
used for decoration in records.
You can also define, change and delete records and windows.
You must give each variable, record and window a name. This name
must begin with an uppercase letter followed by up to nine letters,
digits or the character '_'. There are some reserved words that
cannot be used for names.
A special feature of AmigaBase is the programming of it. For each
variable (except MEMO variables) you can write a program which
is called whenever you change the contents of this variable or press
RETURN while the cursor is on the program button variable.
If you want to have a view into programming AmigaBase I recommend
that you have a look at the label print program of the cassette
project (included in the distribution).
A complete description of all functions and abilities of AmigaBase
is found in the user manual of AmigaBase. This document is available
by registration only.
Import of datasets
------------------
For importing datasets there aren't any menu items. But with the use
of an AmigaBase program you can write your own Import routine.
First you have to load the import file into a MEMO variable (MEMOLOAD).
Then you do a FOR loop and examine each line of the MEMO variable.
Use LeftStr, MidStr, RightStr, Val, etc. to extract the data and
assign it to the dataset variables.
This looks awkward, but it is very flexible. The user manual contains
a whole chapter about importing and exporting datasets.
New features V1.31 - V2.00
--------------------------
o Full font sensitive
o OS 3.0 look
o Iconification of windows.
o Improved memory management
o Arexx port

DisectDemo 1.7 Symbolic disassembler and debugger.
Disect is a very powerful combined disassembler/debugger program,
which has been designed to be easy to use. Its power is achieved at
the expense of memory: the minimum requirement is 1Mb; for larger
projects, 2Mb will be required. The programmer neither encourages nor
condones its use to assist in illegal duplication of copyright
software. Disect can be used for two main purposes: development of
software; and the gaining of knowledge (hacking can be very
educational).
The debugger allows an executable file, a disk boot-block, a binary
file, or an area of memory to be loaded and created as a Process. It
is even possible to grab an existing memory-resident Process. A
Process's instructions can be executed individually, or the Process
can be activated, with or without breakpoints installed. System
exceptions can be trapped before they crash the machine, and program
symbols can be read from execut- able files.
The disassembler allows a loaded program to be commented, have blank
lines inserted, and have it's numbers and addresses replaced with
constant or program symbols. All the symbols of Release 3 of the
system include files are available to the disassembler. A program
which has been dissected in this way can then be saved as two source
files: a program file, and a support file. The support file will
contain EQUs for all required constant symbols. System constant
symbols can be EQUs (grouped by the SI file where they live), or
alternatively the support file can INCLUDE all required SI files.
Disect data files can be saved, to be reloaded later: 'hold on to your
hacks'!
Disect requires Release 2 of the Amiga operating system; it also
requires the ASL library, and GadTools library.
If you've paid your shareware fee then you'll have the full version.
Otherwise, the copy you've got is (hopefully) only a demo. This has a
few differences: you cannot disassemble to file; you cannot extract
program symbols from executable files; auto trace mode is not
available. In addition, you will not have all of the system symbol
data files. If this is so, and since, as I don't doubt, you'll be
impressed by this program, then don't hesitate in registering today,
by sending your name and full address (and a cheque/postal order for
£20) to the address which you'll find at the end of this file. As well
as receiving the full version, you'll also be en- titled to technical
support (by mail) if required. If you like this program, it's well
worth the money... this will encourage further versions, which will
only get even more powerful... imagine!

xv 2.10 Amiga port of the popular unix displayer
This is a port of an X11 program called Xv (v3.10) by John Bradley.
XV is a program that displays image files in GIF87, GIF89, JPEG,
PBM/PGM/PPM, TIFF, PDS/VICAR Sun Rasterfile, and X11 Bitmap formats.
XV runs on nearly ALL X displays: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 16, 24, and 32-bit,
color, greyscale, and black/white.
XV displays one image at a time in an output window, or on the root
window. You can arbitrarily stretch or compress the window, and the
picture will be rescaled to fit. You can rotate the picture in
90-degree steps. You can flip the picture vertically and
horizontally. You can repeatedly 'crop' a picture (define a
rectangular 'region-of-interest' and 'throw away' the rest). You can
magnify any portion of the picture by any amount, up to the maximum
size of your screen.
XV allows you click on the picture to determine pixel RGB values and
x,y coordinates. You can perform arbitrary 'gamma correction' on the
picture both in RGB space and HSV space. You can specify the maximum
number of colors that XV should use, for some interesting visual
effects. You can have the program produce a stippled version of the
picture using black and white, or any other pair of colors.
XV can write images in a variety of formats, with many of the
modifications you may have made to the picture saved as well. You can
use XV to do format conversion. XV will also automatically uncompress
compress-ed files, as well as read files from stdin.

ErrorMsg 3.03 Lib to display localized error messages
All developpers know how boring it is to include in their programs
messages telling the user what went wrong on an error. This is a long and
tiresome task for the programmer, who would prefer to do more interesting
things.
Moreover, including error messages in the executable often
dramatically increases the size of the files, and these messages are often
in english only. So the idea of a shared library that would provide all
localized error messages the system could deliver was born. This is exacly
what errormsg.library is. It includes a function to simply get a pointer
on the message to display, and functions to display it. As of V2.0,
errormsg.library has a query function which enables it to be called from
ARexx programs.
In errormsg.library, error messages are identified by a
system/subsystem id (to be able to from know who the message is) and the
Code itself. Most of the functions provide tags to alter the behaviour of
the library. Check the autodoc file for more information.

TSMorph 3.2 A comprehensive morphing package.
TSMorph is a set of morphing programs. It consists of three programs:
TSMorph Edit the Morph parameters
TSMorph-render Generate the morphed images
TSMorph-prefs Preferences editor
TSMorph is used to create a parameter file which is used by
TSMorph-render to produce the morphed images. Run times can be about 3
seconds per frame for a 150x150 image on a 28Mhz 68040.
TSMorph-render can be used to either morph one (or a series of)
image(s) to another in a set number of frames with a number of control
points, or just distort one (or a series of) image(s) with control
points. When TSMorph is run without parameters it will display an ASL
file requester for a file created by TSMorph, it will then create the
images, displaying a Progress Requester on the default public (or
named) screen allowing the process to be interrupted and/or stopped.
ARexx scripts are run before and after each image is processed. These
allow the changing of movement and colour to be controlled along with
the ability to only generate some frames, and also post image
processing (e.g. to change to a non-24-bit format and build an
animation).
TSmorph is used to generate the parameter file. When run it displays
an Information Window on a public screen. This allows the input of the
file names to morph between, the number of frames, the start frame,
the output file names, and the type of morph (single or dual images)
to be changed.
It also allows the editing of control points on the images. The images
are displayed on a public screen in resizeable, scrollable windows.
When the images are displayed control points can be edited in various
modes. These modes allow the addition, deletion, linking and unlinking
of the control points.
Context sensitive help is displayed using amigaguide (if available).
The 'Help' key can be pressed in the gadgets, over the gadgets, on
menus or anytime a window is active.

bBaseIII 3.04 Full-featured easy-to-use database
bBaseIII is a full-featured, graphically interfaced, reasonably fast
and, I think you will agree, quite an easy-to-use database program.
Basically, it will sort, search for, display and print out stored
information, but wait, there's more!
Refer to Section 1.2 - `Feature Summary'.
Once a database has been loaded from disk, all modifications are done in
computer memory, and will NOT be permanently saved until the database is
saved to disk. This can be done using the menus, the function keys,
or upon quiting.
Almost all functions of bBase may be accessed from the menus, and most
also have keyboard equivalents. These are all described in Section 9 -
` SUMMARY OF KEYBOARD COMMANDS'.
What bBase is NOT, is an SBase competitor. bBase does not even WANT to
be like SBase. The philosophy behind bBase was to create a simple,
intuitive database program, easy to learn, yet packed with features.
It multi-tasks extremely well, as it does not burn up CPU time while not
actually performing operations.

FrontPub 1.1 Frontmost screen becomes def public scr
FrontPub is a small utility that automatically declares the frontmost
screen to be the default public screen provided the frontmost is actually
a public screen. Together with the global public screen mode 'SHANGHAI'
enabled all windows that normally open on the workbench screen will now
open on the new default public screen. (Because FrontPub would not be
very useful with a disabled 'SHANGHAI'-mode, it will be switched on at
program start). It uses a verticalblank-interrupt server to monitor
Intuition's frontscreen. All other accesses and (possible) changes are
done by the main program. Currently FrontPub does not support any arguments.
Features:
- is a commodity, so it can be disabled/enabled/ended at any time
- exits if CTRL-C was received
- amount of needed cpu-time is negligible
- pure, can be made resident (not very useful though)

VStationDemo demo 1 Video editing control software.
This version of VStation Amiga Professional is provided to allow
people to take a close look at the software before considering
purchasing it. It doesn't save anything, edit performs are converted
to previews, and various other features are disabled but for the most
part the program is intact. This includes the toaster interface,
serial communication, and pretty much everything needed to see how the
program works. Transport control, online help, loading data, edit
previews, and many other functions operate the same way as the release
version.
This is the third generation of edit control software written for the
EditLink series of controllers. We now have support for over 100 vcrs
and camcorders using any combination Panasonic 5-pin, Sony Control-L,
and RS-422 compatible interface. The software is a powerful
combination of features that take full advantage of the most popular
peripherals, providing a multitude of EDL tools, and an interface that
makes the complex task of managing all this power as easy to learn as
possible.
Some of the highlights of the system include:
A/B roll editing with full auto-assembly
* Tape change prompts
* Extensive Per-Event options
* Different mixes
* Personal Animation Recorder support
* ARexx commands, both initialization and GPI triggered
Full support for NewTek Video Toaster
* Effect, Framestore, CG, and Background color stored for each event.
* Freeze the last frame of the edit for X-roll edits.
* Optionally disable sending Toaster commands for control by other
software, such as T-Rexx macros.
* Change framestore device for each event.
Support for SunRize SoundSwitch mixer.
Support for DPS TBC-IV and PAR.

PoolWatch 1.01 Debug tool for pool-allocations (OS3.x)
PoolWatch is a debug tool for OS 3.0 and higher designed to watch and
correct illegal allocation and freeing of memory that use the
pool-functions provided in OS 3.0 and upwards. PoolWatch is necessary
since Mungwall do not catch any illegal memory handling concerning
pool-allocations.
PoolWatch is especially useful in combination with Enforcer, Mungwall
(which will watch normal allocations that use AllocMem/FreeMem),
SegTracker and FindHit (included in the Enforcer archive).
If SegTracker is running in the system when PoolWatch is started,
PoolWatch will use the public SegTracker seglist tracking for
identifying the hunk and offset into the executable doing illegal
allocations.
You *need* sushi to run PoolWatch. PoolWatch will use kprintf() to
output text, and without sushi (or a terminal-program :) you will not
be able to see the text. Future versions will probably support output
to stdio too.

PeekQual ?.? Generates WARN (5) codes on qualifiers
The reason for this program to be is that I recently had trouble in finding
which of the programs launched in my user-startup was sometimes crashing the
system. I wrote a special version of the user-startup that asked before running
all programs, and thought it would be great to have a program allowing to switch
the files automatically when a key was hit.
The best candidates for those keys were of course the qualifiers, since they do
not interfere with the output window. Moreover, there is a new (V36) function
in the input.device that would make it easy to test: PeekQualifier(). So here
is this program, which does not even require a window to be opened to work. The
program fits in one disk block, and is pure, meaning it can be made resident.
To use PeekQual, you must have kickstart 2.04 or higher. It will only work from
CLI, the template is as follows:
PeekQual ONQUAL,OFFQUAL
Each of the arguments, ONQUAL and OFFQUAL, should be a word made of the
following letters (I've tried to respect this rule: lower case for left keys,
and upper case for right ones):
s: left Shift
S: right Shift
c: Control
C: Caps lock
a: left Alt
A: right Alt
g: left amiGa
G: right amiGa
b: left mouse Button
B: right mouse Button
m: Middle mouse button
The program does the following: it PeekQualifier()s and then tests the
result: if all keys given in the ONQUAL argument are pressed and all keys given
in the OFFQUAL argument are NOT be pressed, then the program returns WARN (5),
else it returns OK (0). The result can then be tested with the IF WARN command
in a script file. All qualifiers given neither in ONQUAL nor in OFFQUAL are
ignored.
Example, in your startup-sequence:
PeekQual CSs
IF WARN
Execute S:User-Startup.Debug
ELSE
Execute S:User-Startup
ENDIF

load a picture the same speed off of floppy as off of hard drive!
o 100% Assembly language, very optimised.
o Custom chunky to planar conversion, that is reasonably fast
(a version using WritePixelLine8() runs about 50% the speed of
this version)
o Now works with all 68000 series CPU's (i hope)
o Now supports transparent gifs ('copy' a transparent gif from
multiview and then paste it as a bruch in DPaint - NEAT eh?)
o Its FREE! (this is of course the best bit)
Main limitations: (hey, its not _perfect_ after all)
o OM_WRITE BOOPSI method not yet implemented. Expect this in a future
release.
o Only decodes pictures with a global colour table. Most gif loaders
do the same, and most writers write them.
o Ignores any local colour tables (but still decodes picture). Could
lead to a bad palette.

db 2.6 Database with GadTool look
db is a small and fast database program that I wrote after having tested
numerous other PD database programs and always found something lacking or
irritating me. They might have dozzens of features not found in db, but
they lacked font sensitivity and a standard GUI look and OS 3.0 behaviour.
My main need was to keep record on addresses and telephone numbers of
friends and companies. Before v2.0 db was fixed to be just an address
and telephone database, but that has changed. The program is designed
to handle information of your choice. Currently you have to use a file
editor to specify the database fields and layout as there is no GUI for
that.
Anyway that's a one time job, then you just USE the database and have fun.
Complete GUI support will probably only be included in a commercial product
I plan to call REG.
A partial list of db's features include:
o Dynamic memory handling. Number of records and fields only limited by
free memory.
o GadTool based. (Use fields of string, checkbox and cycle type)
o Mouse and keyboard driven.
o User definable fields and layout.
o Multiple views of the same database.
o Commodore's Clipboard for flexible interaction with other programs.
o AppWindow -just drag and drop database icons on db to load.
o Online MenuHelp -Press HELP key when selecting a menu item.
o Font sensitivity.
o ARexx
o ASL requesters for flexible loads and saves.
o Localized
o Dial numbers using a modem or loudspeaker
o WB and Shell usage with Commodore's template parsing
o Fast and flexible find function using AmigaDOS patterns.
o Filter function.
o Fast and flexible sort function. Multiple sort orders can be
specified.
o 'Export View' and two standard ASCII export features.
o Automatic ASCII import (tab-separated ASCII)

SleepingPointers 1.0 Program to animate busy pointer.
What is this Sleep stuff ??
Well, have you ever work on WindowsNT and saw the animated busy
pointers?
"Gosh, my Amiga is better than a PeeCe and my Workbench only shows a
little-tiny stopped busy pointer!"
You may say: "use PointerX, or LacePointer"
no way : PointerX only shows a ugly bysypointer in lowres !!!
You can also say: "use PatchPointer to make the busypointer hires."
Ok ... try it and you will see the busypointer becomes stopped!
Damn ...
LacePointer in other way only works in screenmodes of PAL/NTSC. If
you have a brand new AGA amiga, that is in MULTISCAN or DBLPAL, or
something else, no LacePointer.
Those little problems, motivated me to program SleepingPointers.
After some time, SleepingPointers has born!
Now, animated busy pointers in hires is easy.
If i receive enough feedback, i will do a Prefs Program so that you
can load you favourite ANIMATION/ANIMBRUSH of a busy pointer and use

disk space back NOW.
You have two options 1. Use the CLI to delete the file however
you don't know what the picture is.
2. Load Deluxe Paint IV to view and delete
the file however this is too slow and cumbersome.

Use ILBM Killer. It is reasonably quick straight forward and

PoolWatch 1.03 Debug tool for pool-allocations (OS3.x)
PoolWatch is a debug tool for OS 3.0 and higher designed to watch and
correct illegal allocation and freeing of memory that use the
pool-functions provided in OS 3.0 and upwards. PoolWatch is necessary
since Mungwall do not catch any illegal memory handling concerning
pool-allocations.
PoolWatch is especially useful in combination with Enforcer, Mungwall
(which will watch normal allocations that use AllocMem/FreeMem),
SegTracker and FindHit (included in the Enforcer archive).
If SegTracker is running in the system when PoolWatch is started,
PoolWatch will use the public SegTracker seglist tracking for
identifying the hunk and offset into the executable doing illegal
allocations.
You *need* sushi to run PoolWatch. PoolWatch will use kprintf() to
output text, and without sushi (or a terminal-program :) you will not
be able to see the text. Future versions will probably support output
to stdio too.

DICE 2.06.37 Dillon's Integrated C Enviroment
DICE consists of a frontend, preprocessor, C compiler, assembler, and
linker, and support libraries all written by the author. A generated
(non-commodore) 2.0 amiga.lib is included with this distribution. Note
that you may compile 1.3 programs with the 2.0 amiga.lib as long as
you avoid 2.0-specific calls.
DICE also includes my DMAKE make utility (though it should be noted
that DMAKE is extremely difficult to learn how to use). Source is not
available (it isn't fit to be distributed). DMAKE works best running
under 2.0 due to the available of new system calls.
This is the unregistered FreeWare version. If you find yourself using
DICE seriously, you should consider the commercial version. Refer to the
doc/REGISTER.DOC for information on commercial version.

RCSGUI 2.41 GUI interface to HWGRCS
RCSGUI implements the basic features of RCS: checking in, checking
out, locked and unlocked, rlog, and rcs -n to assign a symbolic name
to a rev. It does not implement all options to all RCS commands.
RCSGUI will let you checkin files by just dragging and dropping
files on the RCSGUI window. The icons of the checked in files are
visible in the RCSGUI window, and can be selected, and checked out
by either the checkout button, double clicking on the icon, or drag
and drop outside of RCSGUIs window.
RCSGUI is completely font sensitive.
It will adjust its gadgets and icons according to the window size.
All configuration is done with tooltypes in the icon, and some
can also be saved from the windows SnapShot button.
Now supports and actually requires HWGRCS.
Uses file requester to specify repositories.
See the documentation for all the features.
It works nicely with the SAS/C WB compiler environment, but have no
connection to the SAS/C compiler. It can be used with any compiler
that lets you edit & compile from the workbench. (Well, it can be
used with any CLI based compiler too, but it wouldn't make sense).
It can be used with anything that you want to use RCS for, it doesn't
have to be programming!

Scout 2.4 System Monitor
Scout is a tool that allows you to monitor your computer system. It
displays many different things -- like tasks, ports, assigns,
expansion boards, resident commands, interrupts, etc. -- and you
can perform some certain actions on them.
For example you can freeze tasks, close windows and screens, release
semaphores or remove locks, ports and interrupts.
Through AmiTCP it's also possible to use Scout as an TCP/IP service.
Since version 2.0 of Scout you can use nearly all implemented
functions through shell parameters. Therefore it's not necessary
to install MUI for using Scout, but you will need MUI, if you want
to use Scout with its graphical user interface.

QCD 1.1 Cd with CDPATH,pcd,cd ..,filereq,cd DF?:
With qcd you can not only match paths, but also assigns/volumes/devices,
e.g. loc*:cat* would be short for locale:catalogs. If more than one
path maches it will ask you which one you really meant. Whenever possible
it understands the Unix elements . .. ~ / ,though the Amiga syntax has
priority. You also have the ablility to set a CDPATH variable to show
the program where to look for your directories. Of course you can go
back to the directory where you where before (similar to the script S:PCD).
Finally you can also select the directory via filerequester.
It has the following template :
DIR,NOREQ/S,NOPAT/S,NOHARD/S,NOSOFT/S,NOUX/S,FREQ/S,
PCD=-/S,PPCD=--/S,WAIT/K/N

AmigaXv 2.18 Amiga port of the popular unix displayer
This is a port of an X11 program called Xv (v3.10) by John Bradley.
XV is a program that displays image files in GIF87, GIF89, JPEG,
PBM/PGM/PPM, TIFF, PDS/VICAR Sun Rasterfile, and X11 Bitmap formats.
XV runs on nearly ALL X displays: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 16, 24, and 32-bit,
color, greyscale, and black/white.
XV displays one image at a time in an output window, or on the root
window. You can arbitrarily stretch or compress the window, and the
picture will be rescaled to fit. You can rotate the picture in
90-degree steps. You can flip the picture vertically and
horizontally. You can repeatedly 'crop' a picture (define a
rectangular 'region-of-interest' and 'throw away' the rest). You can
magnify any portion of the picture by any amount, up to the maximum
size of your screen.
XV allows you click on the picture to determine pixel RGB values and
x,y coordinates. You can perform arbitrary 'gamma correction' on the
picture both in RGB space and HSV space. You can specify the maximum
number of colors that XV should use, for some interesting visual
effects. You can have the program produce a stippled version of the
picture using black and white, or any other pair of colors.
XV can write images in a variety of formats, with many of the
modifications you may have made to the picture saved as well. You can
use XV to do format conversion. XV will also automatically uncompress
compress-ed files, as well as read files from stdin.
