Y, 10 contours, and 0.1,0.1 for the two 'courseness'

H.A.M. files like those produced by digiview.

video of the Amiga launch, and where is the Aquisition database demo ?
Also available are AMICUS disks 1..6,8,9,10 and disks 1..53 of the
AmigaLibDisk series assembled by Fred Fish in the States (Fred must
spend a lot of time assembling these disks, and has been kind enough
to supply us directly (at a small charge) with his disks. I hope you
guys (and gals!) appreciate all the voluntary hard work done by the
authors of the public domain software, don't take it for granted, try
to repay these people by contributing something yourself. And
remember, if you like and use any of the shareware products you are
expected to send a donation (ussually specified!) to the programs
author - this often entitles you to a manual and later updates.
If you've got any contributions or requests then send us a disk. (or
money to purchase a box of disks, and specifications as to their
contents)
