- 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.

- MakeVersion 1.0 Program for creating version numbers.
-
- MakeVersion is a simple program for creating program version
- numbers. I use it to embed version numbers in most of my
- publicly-released programs. It creates linkable object files
- which can be used by any standard Amiga linker when linking
- the program and is particularly suitable for use in Make
- files (or Lmk or DMake files).

- SuperDuper 3.13 High-speed disk copier and formatter
-
- SuperDuper is 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 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
- increment, a list of the disks copied, and automatic start of operations
- based on disk insertion/ejection sensing. SuperDuper 3.13 is freeware and
- works on any Amiga under 2.0 and beyond.
