Author: David Lucas ========================== Contents of Disk 002 ========================== This is disk 2 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. alib Object module librarian. Author: Mike Schwartz cc Unix-like frontend for Lattice C compiler. Author: Fred Fish dbug Macro based C debugging package. Machine independent. Provides function trace, selective printing of internal state information, and more. Author: Fred Fish make Subset of "unix" make command. Useful, but does not have many of the features of the full make, much less the newer "augmented make". Author: Landon Dyer make2 Another make subset command. Author: Marc Mengel microemacs Small, relatively portable version of emacs. Has keyboard macros. No extension language. Author: Dave Conroy portar Portable archiver. Used to bundle text file up into a single file for transmission as a unit, or otherwise handling as a single file. "Portable" because the code itself is portable and because the archive format is very simple (uses ascii headers to separate files). From Decus C distribution. Author: Martin Minow xrf C cross reference utility. Originally from Decus C distribution. Author: Bob Denny ========================== Contents of Disk 003 ========================== This is disk 3 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. gothic Gothic banner printer. Prints DOWN the page, rather than across, so arbitrarily long banners can be created. Send EOF (CTRL-\) to end input. From a Decus C distribution several years ago. Author: unknown roff A "roff" type text formatter, roughly following "Software Tools" version. Somewhat upwardly compatible with unix "nroff" command. Author Ken Yap ff A very fast text formatter, controlled exclusively by command line arguments. Author: Gary Perlman & hordes of students cforth A highly portable forth implementation. Lots of goodies. Author: Allan Pratt xlisp A nice little lisp implementation. Compiles and links ok, but something in the Lattice C setjmp/longjmp code prevents it from currently running. Might be easily fixed. Version 1.4 Author: David Betz ========================== Contents of Disk 004 ========================== This is disk 4 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. banner Prints horizontal banner (across screen). From Decus C distribution of several years ago. Author: Unknown bgrep Another grep like utility, also using the Boyer-Moore algorithm. Author: Roy Mongiovi and Arnold Robbins 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. Compiles and links (with some effort) but currently crashes the machine. Needs work, but will probably be worth it. Author: Bob Corbett and Richard Stallman bm A grep like utility using the Boyer-Moore algorithm. Author: Peter Bain grep Decus grep (Get Regular Expression and Print). Useful for finding strings in files. Author: Unknown kermit This is an absolutely ancient kermit, who's only saving grace is that it is small and quite portable. On the AMIGA, there is no connect mode, only send and receive. You must log into the remote machine via one of it's local terminals and point it's kermit at the appropriate serial line connected to the AMIGA. Author: Unknown, but it is so hacked up it doesn't matter by now. MyCLI Another CLI for the AMIGA. Author: Mike Schwartz mandel A Mandelbrot set program. Author: Robert French, with additions by RJ Mical ========================== Contents of Disk 005 ========================== This is disk 5 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. It contains many of the programs, written by Commodore-Amiga people, that were included in disk number 1. However, they have been cleaned up so that they compile cleanly on the AMIGA, return resources allocated, etc. cons Console device demo program with supporting macro routines. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 freemap Creates a visual diagram of free memory. Comes with custom icon so can be run from workbench screen. Author: Robert J. Mical input.dev In combination with hander.interface.asm (supplied), lets a user trap keyboard or mouse events before they get to Intuition and if desired, install new (phony/ generated/other-devices-mouse-simulations) into the input stream. Handler.interface.asm is needed to convert the calling sequence performed by the input.task for the input stream management into something that a C program can understand. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 joystick Shows how to set up the gameport device as a joystick. Reports parameters received from joystick hooked to right port. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 keyboard Sample program to demonstrate direct communications with the keyboard. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 layers Shows use of the layers library, used by Intuition to create windows (layers handles all overlapping drawing areas and keeps things straight, sending to the back, bringing to the front, making larger/smaller, etc.) Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 mandelbrot Latest and greatest mandelbrot program. New features include the ability to save images in "iff" format, for reading into Deluxe Paint or other programs that use iff. Also includes code from GraphiCraft to handle color palette and change colors at will. Many additions by RJ Mical. Author: Robert French mouse Shows how to set up the gameport device as a mouse so that hooking up the mouse to the right port gives access to mouse information.

Author: Tom Pohorsky 12/1/85 printer Shows how to open and use a printer, does a screen dump of the workbench screen if there is a graphics-capable printer attached. Currently does not compile under Lattice C Ver3.02 and does not link under Lattice C Ver3.03. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 print.support Printer support routines. Currently won't compile, missing a header file "local.h". Author: unknown proctest Sample code to create a process, set up message ports, pass messages, etc. Sample slave code for create process test (littleproc.c) currently does not link under either Lattice C 3.02 or 3.03 (unresolved global variables not in libraries). Author: Rob Peck 1/4/86 region Demonstrates how a drawing area can be split into linked rectangular regions. Draws a rectangle in a single playfield display, then draws "Behind a Fence" several times behind an apparent fence in the rectangle. Only works under Lattice Ver3.03. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 samplefont A sample font that produces clubs, hearts, spaces, and diamonds as its four characters. Shows precisely what is contained in an Amiga font. Author: Unknown serial Demonstrates access to the serial port. Requires an external terminal connected to the serial port. Author: Unknown singlePlayfield Creates and displays a 320 by 200 by 2 bit plane single playfield display. Completely covers Intuition's display, but gives the system back at exit. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 speechtoy Latest and greatest version of Dave's cute speech demo program. Comes with custom icon so can be run from a workbench screen. Author: Dave Lucas speech.demo A much simplified version of speechtoy. Also includes exec support functions for extended IO requests, CreateExtIO() to allocate and initialize a new IO request block and DeleteExtIO() to free an extended IO request block. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 text.demo Sample program that asks AvailFonts() to make a list of the fonts that are available, then opens a window and then prints a description of the various attributes that can be applied to the fonts, in the font itself. Previous versions were released as "whichfont". Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 timer Simple timer example program. Includes dynamic allocation of data structures needed to communicate with the timer device, as well as the actual device IO. Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85 trackdisk Demonstrates use of trackdisk driver. Useful example of "raw" disk read/write. Author Rob Peck 12/1/85 ========================== Contents of Disk 006 ========================== This is disk 6 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. 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 ========================== Contents of Disk 007 ========================== This is disk 7 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains a port (executables only) of the popular UNIX game "Hack", courtesy of John Toebes, 120 H Northington Pl, Cary NC. 27511. This is Version 1.0.1. ========================== Contents of Disk 008 ========================== This is disk 8 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. It contains the source to "Hack", a popular UNIX game ported to the AMIGA by John Toebes. Please read all the associated README files before redistributing with changes. ========================== Contents of Disk 009 ========================== This is disk 9 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. moire Draws moire patterns in black and white in a borderless backdrop window. Currently only runs with Lattice C version 3.02, when compiled with 3.03 crashes the system. Author: Scott Ballantyne MVP-FORTH Mountain View Press Forth, version 1.00.03A. A shareware version of forth from Fantasia Systems. Runable from the workbench, comes with icons and such. If you use this, you should send a contribution to Fantasia Systems / Mountain View Press. proff Another text formatting program. This one is significantly more powerful than any of the others previously distributed on these disks. setlace Program to toggle interlace mode on and off. When used with a black background, and amber or green characters, produces a nice CLI environment. Author: Bob Pariseau, Nov 85 skewb Not quite sure what this is supposed to be, it was downloaded from a bbs with no documentation. C'mon folks, at least put a three line description at the start of your programs! Author: Raymond S. Brand sparks Graphics demo that draws a "moving pathway", adding to the front and removing from the tail (sure is hard to come up with verbal descriptions of these things!). Author: Scott Ballantyne ========================== Contents of Disk 010 ========================== This is disk 10 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. conquest You control an interstellar empire, decide which star systems to explore, which planets to colonize, etc. The computer will also be building its own empire and competing with you for resources. The one with the greatest population at the end wins. Executable only, no source. Downloaded from Denver BBS. Author: Unknown, ported to Amiga by Rob Shimbo dehex Simple little program to convert hex format file into a binary file. Reads lines of hex characters on stdin and writes 8 bit dehex'd bytes to stdout. Author: Fred Fish filezap Patch program for any type of file. Executable only, no source available. Author: John Hodgson fixobj Strip extraneous garbage off end of object files transfered with xmodem. Does not require preknowledge of actual file length, uses knowledge of Amiga file structure.

Author: Paul Biondo pictures Miscellaneous DPaint and digitized pictures, in iff format. Some are rated R. ========================== Contents of Disk 012 ========================== This is disk 12 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. 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. amiga3d Shows a rotating 3 dimensional solid "Amiga sign". No source available, executable only (downloaded from a Denver BBS) Author: Barry (bart) Whitebook of C-A ArgoTerm Yet another terminal emulator program. However, this one is written in macro assembler, so should be of interest to anyone doing serious assembly language development. Version 0.20 Author: Jez San arrow3d Shows a rotating 3 dimensional wire frame arrow. No source available, executable only (downloaded from a Denver BBS) Author: Steve Beats of C-A ld4 Another directory listing program using some graphics style output.

ASCII and XMODEM support, telephone dialer, function keys, load file stripping, text file conversion, full/half duplex, Author: Jim Nangano and Steve Plegge ========================== Contents of Disk 013 ========================== This is disk 13 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. It is a grab bag of basic programs, mostly untested. No speekee basic so if these don't work, call someone else. ========================== Contents of Disk 014 ========================== This is disk 14 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains the first ever public release of two new pieces of code, "dex" and "termcap". Also, this is the first disk in the library that includes executables produced with both the Manx and Lattice C compilers, whenever possible. This greatly helps to isolate bugs. amiga3d Shows a rotating 3 dimensional solid "AMIGA" sign. This is an updated version of the program released on disk number 12, and now includes full source. Author: Barry Whitebook @ Commodore-Amiga beep Source for a function that generates a beep sound, like CTRL-G on a VT100 terminal.

Author: Mike Farren pdterm A simple terminal emulator that does ANSI or DEC VT-100 emulation in 80 cols by 25 lines. Version 1.21. Author: Michael McInerny shell A simple csh style shell with history and some other goodies. Still needs some polishing and enhancement, but is quite nice as it. Thanks Matt!!! We've really needed something like this for a long time. Now if you would just do a ksh version instead... Author: Matt Dillon termcap A (mostly) unix compatible implementation of a termcap library. First ever public release. Author: Fred Fish ========================== Contents of Disk 015 ========================== This is disk 15 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Whenever possible, both Lattice C and Manx C executables are provided. The Lattice executables have the extension ".lattice" and the Manx executables have the extension ".manx". This greatly helps to isolate bugs. Blobs A simple graphics program, reminiscent of the unix "worms" program, but in color of course. Author: Peter Engelbrite Clock A simple digital clock program designed to be small and to live completely in the screen title bar, where it is out of the way. Author: Mike Meyer Dazzle An eight-fold symmetry dazzler program. Really pretty! Author: Peter Engelbrite Fish "A demo program which runs an AnimOb in a double buffered screen with sequence cycled animation". (Basically shows a fish "swimming" across the top of the screen).

BlackJack A line oriented (no graphics) blackjack game. Author: Unknown JayMinerSlides These are the Amiga slides produced/used by Jay Miner (the designer of Amiga's custom graphics chips) in his talks about the Amiga. They are all hi-res (640 x 400) and are best displayed on a long-persistence color monitor. Keymap_Test A program to test the keymapping routines and find possible bugs. Useful as an example of keymapping. Author: Pushpa Kumar LockMon Find file locks. Useful for discovering if programs properly clean up after themselves.

It contains extensive on-line help information, unlike other Mandelbrot programs distributed in this library. It also is capable of displaying some very pretty hi-res pictures in interlace mode. Enjoy -Fred ========================== Contents of Disk 022 ========================== This is disk 22 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains two new "strains" of microemacs, both derived from early releases of Dave Conroy's microemacs. There is currently an attempt on usenet, lead by Dave Brower, to coordinate an effort to merge features from the different versions into a single supported microemacs. In the meantime, perhaps you can find a feature you need in one of these... Lemacs Microemacs version 3.6 as enhanced and supported by Daniel Lawrence. This version works and has been tested on Unix V7, BSD 4.2, Amiga, MS-DOS, and VMS. Enhancements include overwrite mode, support for Amiga function keys, reverse video status line, numeric arguments using, replace, buffer specific editing modes, word wrap mode, goto-line, buffer rename, insert-file, execute named command, describe bindings, startup files, and more. Author: Dave Conroy, enhancements by Daniel Lawrence Pemacs Microemacs as enhanced by Andy Poggio. New features include use of keys as Meta keys, default buffers on buffer switch, mouse support, higher priority to improve interactive response, creation of backup files, paragraph fill, word wrap, query replace, and support for function keys. Author: Dave Conroy, enhancements by Daniel Lawrence ========================== Contents of Disk 023 ========================== This is disk 23 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains a significantly enhanced version of microemacs based on the version 30 release posted to usenet's mod.sources newsgroup. Previous versions of microemacs released on these disks derived from a very old version of microemacs. Since that old release, the author has cleaned up lots of loose ends and restructured major parts of the code. Other people have already added support for termcap, ports to other machines and operating systems, and a limited GNU emacs compatibility option. Because recipients of this disk might wish to run this new microemacs on other machines in addition to the Amiga, I have encluded all sources that were available to me at the time of release. The subdirectories which give alternate implementations are: Sys/Vms System modules for VAX VMS Sys/Atari System modules for Atari ST Sys/Msdos System modules for MSDOS Sys/Cpm86 System modules for Cpm Sys/Amiga System modules for Amiga Sys/Ultrix System modules for Ultrix/BSD4.2 Sys/SysV System modules for Unix System V Tty/Atari Terminal driver for Atari ST Tty/7300 Terminal driver for AT&T Unix PC (7300) Tty/Intuition Terminal driver for Amiga using Intuition Tty/Termcap Terminal driver using termcap for Unix Tty/Ansi Terminal driver using Ansi codes Tty/Amigados Terminal driver for Amiga using just Amigados Tty/Heath Terminal driver for a Heath terminal There currently is a major effort underway on usenet, led by Dave Brower, to standardize microemacs and bring the many variations under one common implementation. Please send any enhancements to rtech!daveb, or send them to me and I will see that he gets them. ========================== Contents of Disk 024 ========================== This is disk 24 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Conquest You control an interstellar empire, decide which star systems to explore, which planets to colonize, etc. The computer will also be building its own empire and competing with you for resources.

It is port of Timothy Budd's Little Smalltalk system, done by Bill Kinnersley at Washington State University. The disk is unchanged except for the following: (1) I have added this file, README.list37. (2) I have added the standard distribution info file, README.dist. (3) In order to make room for the above two files (the disk only had 2 free blocks) I filtered all the text files in the sources, docs, and examples directories through a program to remove extraneous CR (^M) characters from the end of each line. This also makes the files conform to standard Amiga and Unix line delimiter conventions. I hope this didn't break anything else in the process... (4) I have added the file sources/Makefile to help people who want to recompile the sources. It uses my cc frontend. I was able to compile and link an executable that was almost the same size as the one Bill provided (100 bytes smaller) using Manx 3.20B in 16-bit int mode, but it aborted immediately with an error message, so beware. -Fred ========================== Contents of Disk 038 ========================== This is disk 38 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

To quote the "Read Me First" file: This diskette contains the Amiga version of MicroGNUEmacs (MG), a small but powerful text editor that 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. From the "Read Me Second" file: This is the fourth Beta distribution of MicroGnuEmacs. Beyond the work of Dave Conroy, author of the original public domain v30, this contains the efforts of: mwm@ucbopal.berkeley.edu Mike Meyer mic@ngp.utexas.edu Mic Kaczmarczik blarson@usc-oberon.arpa Bob Larson rtech!daveb@sun.com Dave Brower A very nice job guys!

Author: Rick Spanbauer Du Computes disk usage of a file or directory (including subdirectories). Very handy. Author: Joe Mueller MemWatch Memwatch is a program intended to sit in the background and watch for random trashing of low memory by an application under development. If it detects a write to low memory, it repairs it to what used to be there, then puts up a requester indicating what damage had been done. Very useful! Author: John Toebes Profiler A realtime execution profiler for Manx 3.30E. Using this you can identify what sections of your program are using the most time, or being executed the most, and optimize as appropriate. I was able to double the speed of some programs by using this tool. Includes source.

Also includes a separate program to toggle interlace on and off. Both are written in assembler and are very small. Author: Robert Rethemeyer Touch A simple command to set the date of a file to the current date. Uses new supported method of setting a file datestamp (rather than reading and writing back a byte). Author: Phil Lindsay and Andy Finkel Trees Another "tree growing" program, similar to the one on disk number 31, but more extensive. Author: Unknown; Amiga version by Terry Gintz ========================== Contents of Disk 050 ========================== This is disk 50 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Note that many of the programs on this disk are shareware/freeware. This means that if you find them useful, you are morally obligated to send a small donation to the author to help support his efforts and fund further development. I hope that by including them in this library I have furthered the author's goals of widest possible distribution and thus maximum return. Also note (for those that like to split hairs) that I am distributing this disk as a "freebee". To receive a copy, just request it when ordering any other disks from the library. Asm A shareware macro assembler, submitted by the author. Asm is a 68010 macro assembler that is compatible with the assembler described in the AmigaDOS manual.

Author: Dave Warker ========================== Contents of Disk 051 ========================== This is disk 51 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. 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: Steve Michel DifSsed Dif produces a difference file which lists the line by line differences between any two text files. These differences can be fed to ssed (a stream type editor), along with the original text file, to remotely reproduce the other (new) file. Binary only.

Has successfully compiled itself on a 68000 based Unix system V machine, but has yet to be fully ported to the Amiga. It will currently produce assembly output for simple C routines on the Amiga, but needs lots of work to be really useful as anything other than a learning tool for budding compiler guru's. Author: Matthew Brandt SpreadSheet A simple "Visicalc-like" spread sheet calculator. Also known as "vc" but there is currently a debate about whether or not that name is a registered trademark.

This disk contains a port of the popular UNIX game "Hack", done by John Toebes and the crew at the Software Distillery. This is version 1.0.3D. The disk is unchanged except for the following: (1) I have added this file, README.list62. (2) I have added the standard distribution info file, README.dist. (3) I have copied all the files to a freshly formatted disk, to create the master distribution disk, using a command of the form "copy df0: to df1: all". This insures that disk fragmentation is kept to a minimum, but also has the unfortunate side-effect that all the file dates are changed. Note that this disk must be named "Hack_Game". I have elected to keep that name, rather than using the usual "AmigaLibDiskXX" convention for disks in my library, to avoid requiring users to rename the disk before using it. -Fred ========================== Contents of Disk 063 ========================== This is disk 63 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

Bawk Text processor inspired by the Unix awk utility. Bawk searches files for specific patterns and performs actions for every occurance of these patterns. The patterns can be regular expressions. The actions are expressed using a subset of the C language. Unfortunately this version always gets a stack overflow no matter what the stack is set to, I haven't had a chance to find the bug. Includes source, so you can hunt for it. Looks like it could be a very useful utility for the Amiga.

Author: Matt Dillon NewPackets Tutorial downloaded from BIX C-A support section, which describes some new packets and structures in 1.2 AmigaDos. Author: Carolyn Scheppner PascalToC A Pascal to C translator program which is supposed to correctly handle function, procedure, and most type declarations. However, this quick and dirty port didn't fare too well on even a simple little Pascal fragment from Software Tools in Pascal. I don't know if the problem is machine dependencies in the code or bugs. Looks like it could be useful with a little more work than I have time to put into it now. Includes source. Author: James Mullens, enhancements by Dan Kegel Prep Version 2.1 of a Fortran preprocessor called 'prep', an alternative to ratfor.

Author: Hari Wiguna ========================== Contents of Disk 068 ========================== This is disk 68 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. To quote the "Read Me" file: 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. 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 Brower (previous version) 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 A very nice job guys!

(2) I have added the standard distribution info file, README.dist. Note that this disk was named "Draco SYS". I have elected to keep that name, rather than using the usual "AmigaLibDiskXX" convention for disks in my library, to avoid requiring users to rename the disk before using it. Also note that, as distributed, this disk is only about 65% full. Normally I try to fill my library disks to about 90-95% full, but these "packaged" disks are special. -Fred ========================== Contents of Disk 077 ========================== This is disk 77 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

Author: Eric Vaughan ========================== Contents of Disk 083 ========================== This is disk 83 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains a demo version of TeX, ported to the Amiga by Tomas Rokicki. The disk is unchanged except for the following: (1) I have added this file, README.list83, the standard distribution info file, README.dist, and associated icon files, plus "less" to read the text files. (2) I have copied all the files to a freshly formatted disk, to create the master distribution disk, using xcopy, which preserves the file dates. This insures that disk fragmentation is kept to a minimum. (3) In order to make room for the files I have added, I have compressed the file TeX/inputs/amigatex.tex using a version of compress (compress.b13) that should run on any standard 512K amiga. This version of compress is found in c/compress.b13. To recover the original file, execute the commands: cd AmigaLibDisk83:TeX/inputs :c/compress.b13ram:amigatex.tex -d Since this is a demo version of Tom's commercial product, it has several limitations that let you get the flavor of the real thing but encourage you to buy the commercial version. These limitations include TeX being limited to processing only small files, the previewer being limited to displaying ten pages or less, and only a small number of fonts being provided. The full version of AmigaTeX comes on eight floppies and will handle larger documents than most mainframe versions of TeX. See the tex/README file for further info. -Fred ========================== Contents of Disk 084 ========================== This is disk 84 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

ADL is a superset of an older language named DDL, by Michael Urban, Chris Kostanick, Michael Stein, Bruce Adler, and Warren Usui. ADL enhancements were made by Ross Cunniff, who submitted this material for inclusion in the library. The disk is essentially unchanged except that: (1) Many icon files have been added to help workbench only users get at least some information about this disk and about ADL (which is only usable from the CLI environment). (2) The disk name has been changed to AmigaLibDisk91. (3) The standard library files "GeneralInfo", "Contents", and "Distribution", along with their associated icons, have been added to the disk. (4) The directory 'c' has been added, along with a very nice text reader program called "less", which is the default tool for reading all the text files for which there are icons. Included here are the sources to the ADL compiler, interpreter, and debugger. The binaries were compiled by Ross with the Lattice 3.03 compiler. Ross noted in his letter that currently ADL is a CLI environment program only, but that he hopes to offer a more Amiga'ized version in the future. Also, the stack size should be set to at least 10000 before attempting to run ADL. ========================== Contents of Disk 092 ========================== This is disk 92 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

Author: Gary Kemper Sol Amiga version of solitaire game posted to usenet some time ago and modified to use Amiga console control codes in place of curses calls. Includes source. Author: David Goodenough; Amiga port by Joel Swank ========================== Contents of Disk 104 ========================== This is disk 104 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains a copy of Glenn Everhart's large and powerful spreadsheet program called AnalytiCalc, submitted to me directly by Glenn for inclusion in the library. The remainder of this file is Glenn's "Abstract.txt" file that describes AnalytiCalc. Source and documentation is included on the disk in arc'd form because it otherwise would not all fit on the disk. ==================== AnalytiCalc Abstract: 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. To see the documentation you need either a printer 80 columns wide to print it, or an 80 column screen to view it on. SOME DO-NOT'S 1. DO NOT use AnalytiCalc until you have read the documentation. 2. DO NOT forget to make regular backup copies of your database. 3. DO NOT exit (X) the progam without saving your work if you want it saved. (You will be asked to confirm you really want to leave, however.) GETTING STARTED. If you haven't already printed the documentation, please do so before trying to operate AnalytiCalc. Then, READ IT! You should also make sure that you have placed a "write-protect" tab on your AnalytiCalc distribution diskettes, so that they can't be accidentally erased or overwritten. You should now make a copy of your AnalytiCalc disks. These will also serve as your "run-time" system diskettes. De-archive AnalyExe.Arc and AnalyDoc.Arc at least onto a blank disk and read the document files and release notes. You'll need a bit of AmigaDos familiarity to set things up (read how to use the ASSIGN command and the SETMAP command and ASSIGN something as DK:; also set your stack large with the STACK command.) If you are using disk file memory, FACC is a good thing to use also. PLEASE READ THE MANUALS though, to save us all a lot of headaches. SOME MAXIMUMS AND MINIMUMS.

THE USER-SUPPORTED CONCEPT. User-Supported Software You are encouraged to copy and share this program with others. If after evaluating this program you find it to be useful, I trust you to send a $10.00 payment. Glenn C. Everhart 25 Sleigh Ride Rd. Glen Mills, Pa. 19342 To Be Done: Future plans for AnalytiCalc: 1. Add TAN, ASIN, ACOS, and 2-argument ATAN (one argument ATAN is present now). (Done in VAX version; trivial mod.) 2. Interface to raw: device instead of con: device and add more flexible parsing of keystrokes so custom keymaps can be junked. 3. Allow data files to be on a logical device. (Actually, FACC may make this need obsolete). 4. Minor cleanups to XQTCMD and a couple other places to clean up and more thoroughly bullet proof the code. 5. Fix bugs as they are discovered. 6. Allow use on non-interlaced screens by redoing the two command and display windows as pseudo-requestors. Auxiliary files: 1. Port DIFDB (DIF to database or AnalytiCalc saved format and back converter) to Amiga. 2. Port PCGRAF to Amiga. 3. Port some of the BASIC graphics packages to Amiga. Possibly compile some of them. 4. Supply the Business Expense Report, manpower planner, and income tax templates as extra examples. Possibly do a game of LIFE template too, just for fun. Other programs: Port the RIM relational DBMS to Amiga as a companion piece. (This has already been done porting from CDC to VAX to MSDOS (the last by me), and should be straightforward). I have found that Absoft Fortran 2.3 is a stable and usable compiler and would like to acknowledge gratefully its contribution. He who wants to add to or modify AnalytiCalc needs Absoft Fortran 2.3 (or later, I suppose) to build it with. Anyone who has Absoft Fortran-020 for the 68020 is invited to recompile this program to use the faster chips. I didn't have either money or machine to try a 68020/68881 version, but see no reason why it would fail.

Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. Berserk This animation, unveiled at the September 87 meeting of the First Amiga Users Group, got Leo a standing ovation. It is a "must see" for every Amiga user, and ranks up there with "Juggler" as a premier demo for the Amiga. The difference between this distribution, and the one on disk 100, is that this one includes "source". I.E. it contains all the object descriptions necessary to recreate the animation. Thus you can, if you like, try modifying various objects to create slightly different animations, or use it as an example for creating your own animations. Seldom does a disk get devoted to a single program, however animation is one of the Amiga's greatest strengths, and I felt it was appropriate to have at least one animation that was available at the "source code" level.

Full Fortran source code and documentation included. Author: Various, Amiga port by Glenn Everhart ========================== Contents of Disk 144 ========================== This is disk 144 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains a copy of Glenn Everhart's large and powerful spreadsheet program called AnalytiCalc, submitted to me directly by Glenn for inclusion in the library as an update to the version released on disk 104. The remainder of this file is Glenn's "Abstract.txt" file that describes AnalytiCalc. Source and documentation is included on the disk in arc'd form because it otherwise would not all fit on the disk. ==================== AnalytiCalc Abstract: 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 third version of an initial Amiga port of AnalytiCalc, and as such the console interface is somewhat crude and uses a set of command files in an externally assigned area (assigned to DK:) to handle the function keys. A custom keymap can also be used, which was supplied in the initial version. The program comes with complete sources, documents, and executables, and in addition with the source code for the "auxiliary utilities" which handle DIF format conversion and character graphics. (The executables are not adequately tested on amiga as yet, though they work on VAX, PDP11, and IBM PC.) 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. To see the documentation you need either a printer 80 columns wide to print it, or an 80 column screen to view it on. ** PLEASE read the README.1ST file for brief instructions on setting up a working AnalytiCalc disk. Please read the manual at least once over lightly too... *** SOME DO-NOT'S 1. DO NOT use AnalytiCalc until you have read the documentation. 2. DO NOT forget to make regular backup copies of your database. 3. DO NOT exit (X) the progam without saving your work if you want it saved. (You will be asked to confirm you really want to leave, however.) GETTING STARTED. See the README.1ST file!!! If you haven't already printed the documentation, please do so before trying to operate AnalytiCalc. Then, READ IT! You should also make sure that you have placed a "write-protect" tab on your AnalytiCalc distribution diskettes, so that they can't be accidentally erased or overwritten. You should now make a copy of your AnalytiCalc disks. These will also serve as your "run-time" system diskettes. De-archive AnalyExe.Arc and AnalyDoc.Arc at least onto a blank disk and read the document files and release notes. You'll need a bit of AmigaDos familiarity to set things up (read how to use the ASSIGN command and the SETMAP command and ASSIGN something as DK:; also set your stack large with the STACK command.) If you are using disk file memory, FACC is a good thing to use also. PLEASE READ THE MANUALS though, to save us all a lot of headaches. SOME MAXIMUMS AND MINIMUMS.

THE USER-SUPPORTED CONCEPT. User-Supported Software You are encouraged to copy and share this program with others. If after evaluating this program you find it to be useful, I trust you to send a $10.00 payment. Glenn C. Everhart 25 Sleigh Ride Rd. Glen Mills, Pa. 19342 To Be Done: Future plans for AnalytiCalc: 1. Allow data files to be on a logical device. (Actually, FACC may make this need obsolete). 2. Fix bugs as they are discovered. 3. Allow use on non-interlaced screens by redoing the two command and display windows as pseudo-requestors. Auxiliary files: 1. Check that DIFrw (DIF to or from AnalytiCalc saved format converter) and ACGRAF (character graphics utility) work as specified. Note: Sources to these programs, which compile and link cleanly on Amiga, are present here. However they are not yet tested, so executables are omitted. 2. Port some of the BASIC graphics packages to Amiga. Possibly compile some of them. 3. Supply the Business Expense Report, manpower planner, and income tax templates as extra examples. Possibly do a game of LIFE template too, just for fun. Other programs: Port the RIM relational DBMS to Amiga as a companion piece. (This has already been done porting from CDC to VAX to MSDOS (the last by me), and should be straightforward). I have found that Absoft Fortran 2.3 is a stable and usable compiler and would like to acknowledge gratefully its contribution. He who wants to add to or modify AnalytiCalc needs Absoft Fortran 2.3 (or later, I suppose) to build it with. Anyone who has Absoft Fortran-020 for the 68020 is invited to recompile this program to use the faster chips. I didn't have either money or machine to try a 68020/68881 version, but see no reason why it would fail. I have also seen that there are some bugs in Absoft Fortran's handling of con: and raw: windows which I have reported to Absoft. Hopefully this will permit upgrading of user interface soon, as these problems are fixed. (It seems that you CAN do both read and write to CON: windows in Absoft Fortran 2.3, but you must issue a REWIND on the unit between them. This is not always needed in V2.2, but occasionally happens. (This accounts for the occasionally flaky behavior of DTC, which was compiled with V2.2 before I found the foregoing out.) Glenn Everhart 6 November 1987 Also present on the disk is DeskTop Calendar (DTC), a useful little appointment and meeting scheduler and calendar keeper. It will work on either interlaced screens or non-interlaced. AnalytiCalc needs more stack than the 4000 default (I use 65000 but less is probably OK). It also probably needs more than 512K of RAM for operation as currently linked. The routines in AnalyO.Ftn can be overlayed against each other, but this has not been done as yet. Those desperate for a smaller executable, having Absoft's compiler, can rebuild in this way for a smaller executable. Also: AnalytiCalc MUST currently run on an interlaced screen owing to where some CON: and RAW: windows are opened. Move the windows to fit on a non-interlaced screen (via patching the image or editing/recompiling) if you must run it on a noninterlaced screen. You must turn interlace on in Preferences and boot with that set up. The SETLACE program will NOT create things quite right for AnalytiCalc and you'll generate the weirdest system crashes (all the way back to Kickstart sometimes) you ever saw if you try... just use Preferences and all will be well... ) Glenn Everhart November 6, 1987 Enjoy... ========================== Contents of Disk 145 ========================== This is disk 145 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

This is the also the first disk of a two disk "Matt Dillion special" containing binaries and sources to the latest versions of a great deal of Matt's many programs. For a complete listing of the programs on these two disks, see the file called "README". Because of the nature of Matt's programs and the need for his support libraries to recreate many of his programs, I opted to keep these disks pretty much as Matt sent them to me, rather than follow the usual AmigaLibDisk format of binaries and sources in one directory. This would have undoubtedly increased this to a three disk set. Please note that if you plan on recreating any of these programs, then it is quite possible that you will need information from both disks. -Fred ><> 18-Nov-88 ====================================================================== README Matthew Dillon 891 Regal Rd. Berkeley, Ca. 94708 USA dillon@ucbvax.berkeley.edu INTERNET ....!ucbvax!dillon USENET FISH RELEASE 16 August 1988 (c)Copyright 1988 Matthew Dillon, All Rights reserved. All software on these disks which is mine may be distributed for non-profit only. This software is 'freeware', NOT public domain since I hold the copyright on it. Terms are: -You may redistribute any of the programs and/or source files but you may not distribute modified versions of said to the general public (i.e. BBS's, USENET, etc....). Redistribution is for non-profit only. -You may extract and use any part of the source without strings attached as long as the programs you write with it are not an attempt to create an enhanced version of the program you extracted the source from. -I am NOT requesting $$ (this is not ShareWare), but then again, I am not so foolish as to not include my address in case anybody feels the urge. These two disks contain binaries and sources to the latest release of quite a bunch of my programs. Many are updates to older versions and some are new. The two major additions that are noteworthy are DRES.LIBRARY and BACKUP. Note that to compile various programs you must have a working SUP32.LIB, DRES.LIB, and DRES.LIBRARY. Also a new include subdirectory, local, must be installed. Only DRES.LIBRARY is independant while the other two (binaries) require Aztec C V3.6 ... you have to recompile for other versions of Aztec C. With a bit of hacking a good programmer would be able to set up an enviroment for Lattice C. Of particular attention to somebody trying to do this is the modification of the LIBREF program to generate Lattice compatible assembly (in the DRES source section). Noted programs which are missing: DNET, and DTERM are not ready for re-release yet. CONFIG V1.00 Used to configure friendly programs like DME for the initial window placement (configures the executable) Clock V1.00 Simple clock, configurable with config. DME V1.31 My programming oriented editor DMouse V1.10 mouse enhancer .. acceleration, blanking, etc... (now handles requesters better w/ auto-activate) Backup V2.01 HD backup/restore (same program just renamed) SUPLIB Support (link time) library required to compile my programs. LIBREF Utility for generating run-time library link library assembly files, lvo.asm, and the run-time library's vector list. See the DRES source for usage. Currently very Aztec in terms of what it generates. DRES V1 Support (run time) library w/ lots of functions including a generic parser and IPC. DASM V2.11 Small-systems assembler. Handles 6502 and some of the Motorola single chip microcomputers. Generates code (not object module oriented). FTOHEX Part of DASM used to convert a DASM executable into an intel-hex formatted ascii file. FILES V1.2 My disk catalog program. Haven't enhanced it much but did fix some bugs. SHELL V2.10 Added enviroment variable support and some other junk. Use ConMan if you want command line editing, I do (it should not be a function of the shell and it isn't in mine). FINDIT V1.00 Search for a filename (wildcard) LIBS V1.00 list libraries/devices in ram or attempt to remove libraries. SCAT V1.00 Utility to 'cat' binaries without blowing up the display ADDCR V1.00 Utility to add CR's before LF's in files REMCR V1.00 Utility to remove CR's in files CMP V1.00 Utility to compare two files BINARIES SOURCES DOCS INCLUDES -- Disk1:include/local Config Disk1:c/config Disk1:src/deemu Disk1:doc/ Clock Disk1:c/clock Disk1:src/deemu Disk1:doc/ DME Disk1:c/dme Disk2:src/dme Disk1:doc/ DMouse Disk1:c/dmouse Disk1:src/dmouse Disk1:doc/ Disk1:l/dmouse-handler Suplib Disk2:clib/sup32.lib Disk2:src/suplib Disk1:doc/suplib/ LibRef Disk1:c/libref (in DRES srcs) (none, see dres sources) DRes library Disk2:clib/dres.lib Disk2:src/dres Disk1:doc/dres/ Disk1:libs/dres.library Dasm Disk1:c/dasm Disk1:src/dasm/ Disk1:doc/ FToHex Disk1:c/ftohex (in Dasm srcs) Files Disk1:c/files Disk1:src/files/ Disk1:doc/ Shell Disk1:c/shell Disk2:src/shell/ Disk1:doc/ Backup/Restore Disk1:c/backup Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/backup.doc Findit Disk1:c/findit Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc Libs Disk1:c/libs Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc Scat Disk1:c/scat Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc AddCR Disk1:c/addcr Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc RemCR Disk1:c/remcr Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc Cmp Disk1:c/cmp Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc ========================== Contents of Disk 169 ========================== This is disk 169 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

Berkeley, Ca. 94708 USA dillon@ucbvax.berkeley.edu INTERNET ....!ucbvax!dillon USENET FISH RELEASE 16 August 1988 (c)Copyright 1988 Matthew Dillon, All Rights reserved. All software on these disks which is mine may be distributed for non-profit only. This software is 'freeware', NOT public domain since I hold the copyright on it. Terms are: -You may redistribute any of the programs and/or source files but you may not distribute modified versions of said to the general public (i.e. BBS's, USENET, etc....). Redistribution is for non-profit only. -You may extract and use any part of the source without strings attached as long as the programs you write with it are not an attempt to create an enhanced version of the program you extracted the source from. -I am NOT requesting $$ (this is not ShareWare), but then again, I am not so foolish as to not include my address in case anybody feels the urge. These two disks contain binaries and sources to the latest release of quite a bunch of my programs. Many are updates to older versions and some are new. The two major additions that are noteworthy are DRES.LIBRARY and BACKUP. Note that to compile various programs you must have a working SUP32.LIB, DRES.LIB, and DRES.LIBRARY. Also a new include subdirectory, local, must be installed. Only DRES.LIBRARY is independant while the other two (binaries) require Aztec C V3.6 ... you have to recompile for other versions of Aztec C. With a bit of hacking a good programmer would be able to set up an enviroment for Lattice C. Of particular attention to somebody trying to do this is the modification of the LIBREF program to generate Lattice compatible assembly (in the DRES source section). Noted programs which are missing: DNET, and DTERM are not ready for re-release yet. CONFIG V1.00 Used to configure friendly programs like DME for the initial window placement (configures the executable) Clock V1.00 Simple clock, configurable with config. DME V1.31 My programming oriented editor DMouse V1.10 mouse enhancer .. acceleration, blanking, etc... (now handles requesters better w/ auto-activate) Backup V2.01 HD backup/restore (same program just renamed) SUPLIB Support (link time) library required to compile my programs. LIBREF Utility for generating run-time library link library assembly files, lvo.asm, and the run-time library's vector list. See the DRES source for usage. Currently very Aztec in terms of what it generates. DRES V1 Support (run time) library w/ lots of functions including a generic parser and IPC. DASM V2.11 Small-systems assembler. Handles 6502 and some of the Motorola single chip microcomputers. Generates code (not object module oriented). FTOHEX Part of DASM used to convert a DASM executable into an intel-hex formatted ascii file. FILES V1.2 My disk catalog program. Haven't enhanced it much but did fix some bugs. SHELL V2.10 Added enviroment variable support and some other junk. Use ConMan if you want command line editing, I do (it should not be a function of the shell and it isn't in mine). FINDIT V1.00 Search for a filename (wildcard) LIBS V1.00 list libraries/devices in ram or attempt to remove libraries. SCAT V1.00 Utility to 'cat' binaries without blowing up the display ADDCR V1.00 Utility to add CR's before LF's in files REMCR V1.00 Utility to remove CR's in files CMP V1.00 Utility to compare two files BINARIES SOURCES DOCS INCLUDES -- Disk1:include/local Config Disk1:c/config Disk1:src/deemu Disk1:doc/ Clock Disk1:c/clock Disk1:src/deemu Disk1:doc/ DME Disk1:c/dme Disk2:src/dme Disk1:doc/ DMouse Disk1:c/dmouse Disk1:src/dmouse Disk1:doc/ Disk1:l/dmouse-handler Suplib Disk2:clib/sup32.lib Disk2:src/suplib Disk1:doc/suplib/ LibRef Disk1:c/libref (in DRES srcs) (none, see dres sources) DRes library Disk2:clib/dres.lib Disk2:src/dres Disk1:doc/dres/ Disk1:libs/dres.library Dasm Disk1:c/dasm Disk1:src/dasm/ Disk1:doc/ FToHex Disk1:c/ftohex (in Dasm srcs) Files Disk1:c/files Disk1:src/files/ Disk1:doc/ Shell Disk1:c/shell Disk2:src/shell/ Disk1:doc/ Backup/Restore Disk1:c/backup Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/backup.doc Findit Disk1:c/findit Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc Libs Disk1:c/libs Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc Scat Disk1:c/scat Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc AddCR Disk1:c/addcr Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc RemCR Disk1:c/remcr Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc Cmp Disk1:c/cmp Disk1:src/com/ Disk1:doc/com.doc ========================== Contents of Disk 170 ========================== This is disk 170 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

Author: Werner Gunther Sozobon-C Atari ST version of what appears to be a full K&R freeware C-compiler, assembler and linker. The compiler main pass and the assembler were compiled and tested on an Amiga A2000 with only minimal changes, and they appear to work (to the extent that they believe they are running on an Atari-ST), so an Amiga port should be relatively easy. Author: Sozobon, Limited. Xoper Very comprehensive program to monitor and control system activity. Monitor cpu, memory usage, ports, interrupts, devices. Close windows, screens, show loaded fonts or last Guru code number. Clean up memory, flush unused libraries, devices, fonts. etc. and a whole bunch more! Spawns its own process.

Author: Michael Weiblen ========================== Contents of Disk 176 ========================== This is disk 176 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains version V23-2A of Glenn Everhart's large and powerful spreadsheet program called AnalytiCalc, submitted to me directly by Glenn for inclusion in the library as an update to the version released on disk 144. AnalytiCalc is presented in entirely ZOOed form because it could not otherwise fit on a single disk. Because the auxiliary utilities were presented on disk 144, they are not repeated here. The ZOO utility is used due to the lack of controversy over the format. The public domain BOOZ program is provided to extract the contents of the ZOO archives provided. With this release, AnalytiCalc has become "Freeware" rather than "Shareware". Thus the only restrictions on AnalytiCalc code are that derivative programs remain freely distributable. HyperNet -------- HyperNet is a small hypertext shell program for Amiga, presented with sources and brief documents. It was also submitted by Glenn Everhart, the author. HyperNet allows a "master" AmigaDos process to control a series of connected processes, where the connections are randomly ordered directed graphs. Permissible "child" processes available at any stage are governed by the links of the graph. The implementation is mainly instructive, but can be used for tutorials or demonstrations and illustrates the simplicity of hypertext concepts on a multi-tasking system. ========================== Contents of Disk 177 ========================== This is disk 177 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. ASpice A version of the SPICE 2G.6 circuit analysis program which has been modified to run in the Amiga environment. The program arrays are adjusted to require one forth the memory of the DEC VAX version. Although this does not usually put much of a constraint on circuit analysis, some users who are used to the full mainframe environment may have to be more aware of the memory demands of their analysis. Requires a minimum of 1.5 MB memory. This version neither supports nor requires the 68020 processor or 68881 coprocessor. Binary only. Authors: Many, see Documentation DiskSalv Version 1.32 of the popular "undelete" and file recovery program. Fixes a few bugs apparently found on the version 1.3 release on disk number 164.

This is a copy of the official November 1988 Commodore IFF disk, sent to me directly by Commodore for inclusion in the library. The only changes I made were: (1) Placed all the files in the "documents" directory into a zoo file "documents.zoo" to free up enough space to add my normal distribution files and icons. Some of the files on the disk were already in zoo format anyway, so this seems like a minor alteration. (2) Changed the file "AboutThisRelease" to reflect the zoo'ing of the documents.

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 III, binary only.

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.

therefore causes crashes on 68000 machines. The Plot.sub
module compiled for 68000 machines in the Matlab archive
was linked using the incorrect Diglib and does not run on
68000 machines. This update provides correctly compiled
replacements for both those files.
