This disk includes several interesting programs which includes:
PLANS- is a drafting or CAD program with commercial quality ideas.
This program uses the inter-lace mode, so that a device is recquired
to decrease inter-lace jitter. Satisfactory results do not recquire
expensive hardware or multi-sync monitors. I have a product called
'Jitter-Rid', which is a smoked plexiglass screen that fastens to the
monitor. The use of Polaroid sunglasses will make this program
bearable. NOTE this programs recquires that a file called ARP.LIBRARY
is located in the LIBS directory on you Workbench disk. Use the CLI
or a directory utility program to copy this file to your WB disk.
In the Utility drawer are three programs:
The programs in the Utility drawer do not have working icons.
WHATIS- identifies what a file is such as text, graphics, program,
or source files. This is a great aid to unidentified files you don't
know what they are. Documentation is included, also this program
recquires ARP.LIBRARY file located on this disk.
LS- version 4.0, is a command that can replace the DIR/LIST
command loacted in the 'C' directory. It shows directories and files
located in directories/sub-directories. It has an auto-pause feature
that prevents files from scrolling off your screen. Read the
documentation for other features
DISKSALVE- a program to salvage damaged files on a disk, if it is
possible to recover the file this program can accomplish this. I am
not referring to physically damaged disks. But errors that can occurr
when trying to exceed the disk capacity, or removing a disk
prematurely. This program has a better chance than the DiskDoctor
program located on Workbench disks. The programmer is well known in
the Amiga community.
In the Basic drawer is an excellent program by Jim Butterfield
called AMORTIZE, this program recquires Amiga Basic. This program
calculates American and Canadian methods of loans and mortgages. You
enter the necessary data to calculate the loan costs. No document-
ation is included, but it isn't needed!
In the Animation drawer is a program called CPU-SHOWDOWN. A humorous
animation showing the Amiga's ability.
