Here is a list of the contents of disks 976-1000. Future disks in the library will be organized by someone else. More details should be forthcoming in the next few weeks. -Fred ========================== Contents of Disk 976 ========================== CLIExchange A 592 byte CLI replacement for the standard CBM Exchange utility. The only difference is that Exchange has a graph- ical user interface while CLIExchange has been designed to be called from CLI so it can be used within scripts, menus, docks or hotkeys. You need at least 2.04 system release. C source included. Author: Gakl Marziou DieserZug A nicely done WorkBench "Worms" type game, where the object is to gobble up pieces making yourself longer and longer, while avoiding running into the walls or your "tail". Features 3 different speeds, high score list, pause and help keys. Version 1.2a, binary only. Author: Juha Vehvildinen ITF Amiga port of ITF4.01. ITF stands for "Infocom Task Force". There have been several ports of Infocom interpreters to the Amiga, but none of this program. The interpreter supports v1, v2, v3 (Zork1 to Stationfall), v4 (Trinity, Bureaucracy, etc.) and v5 (Sherlock, Beyond Zork etc.) games. This is more than any other freely distributable interpreter. With this interpreter you can play ALL the games in the LTOI2 package for the IBM PC, by copying the datafiles with Cross- DOS or similar, then just running this interpreter. Re- quires OS 2.0+. Binary only. Author: InfoTaskForce, amiga port by David Kinder PCal Creates a very nice looking postscript calendar. By default, PCal simply prints an empty calendar. Its real power is in its ability to place ``events'' in appropriate days on the calendar, thus allowing the user to create personalized calendars. This is achieved through the use of a "calendar.dat" file that has extraordinary flexibility. Author: Patrick Wood, Joe Brownlee, Andy Fyfe, et al. ========================== Contents of Disk 976 ========================== Replex REPLace EXecutable. This handy patch substitutes program names that are about to be executed, e.g. if an icon default tool specifies ":c/MuchMore" and you prefer to use "c:TextRead", you can have it defined as such. You won't have to change the icon. This version also has a "catch" option to automatically ask for a substitute if a tool wasn't found. Replex has a font sensitive intuition inter- face, a snapshot option and an unlimited number of defini- tions, but requires AmigaDOS v2.04 or later. This is version 2.0, an update to version 1.0 on disk number 791. Binary only, shareware. Author: ASWare, by Ekke Verheul UChess A powerful version of the program GnuChess version 4 for the Amiga. Plays a very strong game of chess. Code has been rewritten and data structures reorganized for optimal effi- ciency on 32 bit 68020 and better Amiga systems. Fully multitasking, automatically detects and supports 640X480X256 color AGA mode machines, and does not at any time BUSY wait. Requires a 68020/030/040 based Amiga computer system with AmigaOS 2.04 or later and 4 Meg of ram minimum. Special "L" version optimized for 68040 and requires 10 Meg of ram mini- mum. Supports a variety of standard features such as load, save, edit board, autoplay, swap sides, force move, undo, time limits, hints, show thinking, and a supervisor mode that will allow two humans to play with the computer acting as a "supervisor". Version 2.78, includes source. This version supports third party graphics cards. This is part 1 of a 2 part distribution. Part 1 contains the executables and documentation, part 2 contains the source and can be found on disk 977. Author: FSF, Amiga Port by Roger Uzun ========================== Contents of Disk 977 ========================== Forth An update to the MVP-Forth directory on AmigaLibDisk #9. Provided is an improved, faster screen editor which uses the keyboard cursor keys, backspace and delete keys and function keys which allow fast moving thru the screens, pasting from PAD and the printing of screen, triad or PAD to the printer port prt:. F1 is the OOPs key. Control Keys give fast editing. The control keys and Function keys can be reprogrammed by the user if desired. Runs on Amiga 1000 and 3000. Probably on Amiga 500 and 2000 (Untested). Author: Fantasia Systems, Inc. Updated by John Bos KingCON A console-handler that optionally replaces the standard 'CON:' and 'RAW:' devices. It is 100% compatible, but adds some VERY useful features, such as: Filename-completion (TAB-expansion); A review-buffer; Intuition menus; Jump scroll (FAAST output!). Cursor-positioning using the mouse; MC68020-optimized version; And more... Version 1.1, requires OS2.x, binary only. Author: David Larsson LibraryGuide An AmigaGuide file that lists about 210 different PD, Shareware and Commercial "libraries" often found in the LIBS: directory and a simple description of their purpose, version info, where to get them, etc. May help you determine whether or not you actually "need" some of these spaceconsuming things. Version 1.1, an update to version 1.0 on disk number 942. Author: Dan Elgaard UChess A powerful version of the program GnuChess version 4 for the Amiga. Plays a very strong game of chess. Code has been rewritten and data structures reorganized for optimal effi- ciency on 32 bit 68020 and better Amiga systems. Fully multitasking, automatically detects and supports 640X480X256 color AGA mode machines, and does not at any time BUSY wait. Requires a 68020/030/040 based Amiga computer system with AmigaOS 2.04 or later and 4 Meg of ram minimum. Special "L" version optimized for 68040 and requires 10 Meg of ram mini- mum. Supports a variety of standard features such as load, save, edit board, autoplay, swap sides, force move, undo, time limits, hints, show thinking, and a supervisor mode that will allow two humans to play with the computer acting as a "supervisor".

Part 1 contains the executables and documentation, and can be found on disk 976. Author: FSF, Amiga Port by Roger Uzun ========================== Contents of Disk 978 ========================== MakeCat Makes creating locale catalog files easy. It makes catalog files from ASCII files that contain the strings and ID numbers that should be included in the catalog. Reverse operation is also possible with UnMakeCat, so that existing catalogs can easily be translated or changed. Includes example of how to use locale.library to read catalogs. Version 38.02, requires AmigaDOS2.1 or later. Binary only, freeware. Author: Camiel Rouweler Man A simple MAN command, known from UNIX systems. The advan- tage is, that it recognizes .guide files to be AmigaGuide) documents. MAN then uses a different viewer in order to display the AmigaGuide document. Furthermore MAN recog- nizes TeX-DVI files as well, using a different viewer to display them. You may configure MAN using environment variables. Version 1.11a, public domain, includes source. Author: Kai Iske MiserPrint A print utility that puts up to 8 normal pages of text on one sheet of paper. You are able to save paper and time. MiserPrint uses the small built-in fonts (Courier and Letter Gothic) of the HP-Deskjet printers. Version 1.11, an update to version 1.0 on disk number 928. Requires Kickstart 2.04 or higher, binary only, giftware. Author: Heinz-Guenter Boettger MouseClock A hardware/software project of a low cost, very small external battery backed up clock calendar for all Amigas (especially for A1200, A500, A600). It is connected to the mouse port #2. Version 1.22, shareware, includes source. Author: Adriano De Minicis NewEdit A commodity, that patches all string gadgets of the system (better: it installs a global edithook for the string gad- gets). Beside some new edit functions, NewEdit supports copy and paste of text between the clipboard and string gad- gets. Version 1.8, includes source. Author: Uwe Roehm, based on work by Oliver Wagner RachelValley A 256 colour and 16 colour IFF picture of "Rachel Raccoon" resting after a hike.

Author: Les Dietz ========================== Contents of Disk 979 ========================== KeysPlease Displays a nice rendition of the Amiga keyboard and allows you to either click on a key-gadget or press a key to find that key's rawcode or ascii value. Codes are displayed in both decimal and hexidecimal. Version 1.3, binary only. Author: Brian Koetting MouseAideDEMO A DEMO version of a "Mouse" utility which has all the stan- dard functions: Acceleration with threshold, window and screen cycling by mouse and keyboard, mouse and screen blanking, mouse and Auto-Activation, user "hot key" command, Keyboard "String" macros, etc. But also has many functions other "Mouse" programs do NOT, such as: Shell-Cycling, Key Clicking, Mouse Port switching KeyClosing, Multi-Icon- Select with Mouse, Middle Mouse Button Windowing, EZ-Date generation, Workbench to the front function, Ez-Dragging and Sizing, Key zipping, Freezing Mouse and Keyboard of all input, etc. Now features an easy to use Pop-Up 2.xx style intuition interface (that functions in 1.3) and the ability to function correctly in all the new screen modes! Written in assembly for efficiency in size and CPU usage. Version v9.81a, an update to version v9.69a on disk 892. Binary only. Author: Thomas J. Czarnecki QMouse An unusually small and feature-packed "mouse utility". Was inspired by, but not derived from, the original QMouse by Lyman Epp. Features include automatic window activation (like WindX), top-line blanking for A3000/A2320 users, system friendly mouse blanking, mouse acceleration and/or threshold, "Pop-CLI", click-to-front/back, "SunMouse", "NoClick", "WildStar", Northgate key remapping, and more. Requires Kickstart 2.0, but is not a commodity. Only 3K. Version 2.90, an update to version 2.30 on disk 802. Public domain, assembly source included. Author: Dan Babcock SnoopLibs A clever tool for developers and others with a more-than- usual interest in the functioning of tasks, to patch and monitor any library-function-call from a certain task. The output-formats can be changed and the results can be printed to a window, a file or printer. Only for Kickstart v37(+). Includes six ".sl" files (library data) and a tool (fd2sl + source) to add more. Comes with an AmigaGuide manual. This is version 0.9, first public release. Author: ASWare, by Ekke Verheul & Dirk Reisig StartWindow Configurable WorkBench "launch-program" type utility. Opens a zipwindow that when activated, presents the 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 buffer- ing 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 incre- ment, 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. Author: Sebastiano Vigna ========================== Contents of Disk 980 ========================== 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 HWGRCS A 3 part distribution of an RCS 5.6.0.1 port to the Amiga, currently at patch level 8. Part 1 contains the binaries and documentation in AmigaGuide and "man" format, part 2 contains the source code to RCS, and part 3 contains the source code and binaries for patch and diffutils. The Revision Control System (RCS) manages multiple revisions of text files. RCS automates the storing, retrieval, logging, identification, and merging of revisions. RCS is useful for text that is revised frequently, for example: programs, doc- umentation, graphics, papers, form letters, etc. Included are RCS 5.6, GNU diffutils 2.6 and an LP utility to support paged diff outputs. Part 1 on disk 980, part 2 is on disk 981, and part 3 is on disk 982. Author: Walter Tichy, Paul Eggert, Heinz Wrobel ========================== Contents of Disk 981 ========================== BootUte A utility to enable more older software work on the Amiga 1200 and 4000 series, It is also useful for users with accelerators. Requires kickstart 2 or above. Binary only. Author: Paul Toyne CloudsAGA This program creates random clouds which you might use in your paint program, as a texture in a ray tracing program or as a background for your workbench. Uses all AGA res- olutions. Now requires Workbench 2.0 or higher. This is version 1.05, a complete rewrite in OBERON-2. Removed more Enforcer hits. Public domain, includes source in OBERON-2. Author: Daniel Amor ConPaste ConPaste is a 2.0 commodity that allows you to paste clipped text into anything. Paste into string gadgets. Paste into any text application. In this new version, ConPaste drops its priority by 1 when pasting text to allow sufficient processor time for the receiving task or window to process the text. When you press a user-defined key or key combina- tion, ConPaste will take any FTXT found in clipboard unit 0, convert the text back into input events, and send the input events into the input stream. The output will go to the active window or string gadget. This is version 37.25, an update to the version distributed with ClipWindow by Jim Harvey, on disk 935. Author: Carolyn Scheppner HuntWindows Starting with 2.0 you can make screens bigger than the visual size of your monitor. On a double-size workbench, catching windows like requesters etc. can be quite annoying at times. This little utility hangs itself on the VBI (Vertical Blank Interrupt) to find out which window is being activated and moves the screen to show the window in full view. Version 3.3, an update to version 1.4 on disk number 774. Includes source in assembler. Author: Jvrg Bublath HWGRCS A 3 part distribution of an RCS 5.6.0.1 port to the Amiga, currently at patch level 8.

Author: Walter Tichy, Paul Eggert, Heinz Wrobel ========================== Contents of Disk 982 ========================== Bin2Hunk Convert any binary file to an AmigaDOS hunk (or object file) that can be linked with your linker into your program. This is most useful when you wish some form of data to be a part of your executable. This data can be sound samples, images, text, or whatever. Sports a ReadArgs() CLI interface, as well as a GadTools Intuition interface. Memory type options include ANY, CHIP, and FAST. Allows naming of your hunks. An optional data item containing the size of your data can also be specified. Version 2.2, binary only. Author: Brian Koetting HWGRCS A 3 part distribution of an RCS 5.6.0.1 port to the Amiga, currently at patch level 8.

This has some nice advantages for both users and programmers. Basic features are a simple joystick interface, application shareable joystick events, and joy- stick events now pass through the input.device stream. Version 1.0, includes source to example test program. Author: Brian Koetting ========================== Contents of Disk 983 ========================== CapsLockExt A Commodity that extends the effect of the CapsLock key to every key on the keyboard, and allows the Shift key to temporarily cancel the CapsLock key. This causes CapsLock to act like a SHIFT-lock key on a typewriter. Requires OS 2.04 or higher. Version 1.0, includes source in assembly. Author: Douglas Nelson FastJPEG FastJPEG is a fast JPEG picture viewer. Besides being fast, it has many other advantages. An important goal was to not trade quality for speed. In fact, FastJPEG is both fast and has an excellent quality. Most other JPEG viewers either produce ugly pictures, or need ages to perform the conversion to HAM mode. Version 1.10, binary only. Author: Christoph Feck Harridan A "Reminder" type program for your startup-sequence. Each time you boot, Harridan will check your event list, if an event is 'due', Harridan opens a window to remind you. If nothing is 'due', you're not bothered. Designed under Amiga DOS 2.04 and takes advantage of all its easy to use features. Version 1.0, binary only. Author: Andy Maxey TitleClock A little commodity (about 4k) that throws up a clock in the top right corner of a screen's titlebar.

Font-sensitive; Resizeable window. Version 2.0, an update to version 1.1 on disk number 946. Binary only. Author: Albert Schweizer ========================== Contents of Disk 984 ========================== AGIndex Creates an index for AmigaGuide documents. Indicies are sorted alphabetically and can be accessed (in AmigaGuide) by pressing the 'Index' button. Index entries can be extracted from the source document using two different selecting methods: by reference or by declaration. Version 1.04, OS2.0 and higher, binary only, freeware Author: Camiel Rouweler ForceIcon A utility mainly for users of CD-ROM drives. Since one can not snapshot the position of a volume's icon, nor replace it by a user-defined one, this utility was written. Force- Icon 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. GiftWare, Version 1.4, includes source. Author: Kai Iske IconToClip A link between the Workbench and the Shell. It adds an item to the Tools menu that, when selected, puts the name of any highlighted icon into the Clipboard, from which it can be pasted to the Shell or any other program that uses the Amiga Clipboard. Has an option for writing the full pathname. Can handle multiple icon selections, writing the names in row or column format. Can also be used as an AppWindow. Requires 2.04 or higher. Version 1.0, includes source in assembly. Author: Douglas Nelson Imploder The Imploder allows you to reduce the size of executable files while having them retain their full functionality. There are other "crunchers" or "packers" available for the Amiga, but none are as mindful of the complexities of your Amiga system as the Imploder. In addition to this, its algorithms are more efficient, both in terms of speed, and size reduction. Version 4.0, binary only. Author: Albert-Jan Brouwer, Peter Struijk, Erwin Zwart, Paul van der Valk TWA A commodity that remembers the last active window on any screen. If screens are shuffled, the window is automatic- ally re-activated when that screen is brought to front. Version 1.4, an update to version 1.2 on disk number 874.
