PubChange A commodity for AmigaDos 2.04. It isn't a public screen man-
ager, 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 automat-
ically 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 moni-
tors during screen flipping, 2) use 800x600 or higher resolu-
tions 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.

complete C source.
Author: Richard Lee Stockton
SourcOpt A little assembly language source optimizer. While most assem-
blers 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.

VMB Demo version of VIDEO MUSIC BOX, a program designed to provide
an easy to learn and use facility that non-musicians or begin-
ning musicians can use to compose original background music for
their Amiga multimedia productions. No prior music composi-
tional knowledge is required to generate basic musical styles
from pre-arranged music pattern templates & 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. Second major upgrade to
V1.0 on disk number 660. This new version is AmigaDOS 2 compat-
ible, allows unlimited pattern generation in a single sequence,
has improved musical dynamics, & expanded MIDI. Requires 1 Meg.

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.

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-Kick-
start-Mapping tool. Major new output options such as local
output, stdout, and parallel port. Highly optimized to be as
fast as possible. Contains a bug fix to V37.25 on disk 754.

PSTools Part 1 of a two part distribution of DVIPS ported from a Unix
environment. DVIPS is a program that takes TeX .DVI files and
converts them to PostScript files. If you don't have access to
a PostScript printer, you can still take advantage of the vast
amount of useful documentation in TeX .dvi or PostScript .ps
format using the incredibly excellent POST program from FF669.
This portion of the distribution contains the DVIPS binary,
source and config files; DVIPS documentation; the Adobe Font
Metric Files, TeX vf font files and LaTeX files. Part 2 of the
distribution can be found on disk number 796. Includes DICE
C-source.
