¢NOSAUG PD LIBRARY¢¢Catalogue & Updates¢¢¢ The NOSAUG PD Library Catalogue is almost 50% complete. The Library is still taking shape with changes to a small number of disks (see below). Please don't worry about these changes - anyone who ordered the original titles can upgrade to the new disks free-of-charge.¢¢ There may be one or two other changes over the next few weeks but it will settle down soon (when I'm happy with the contents of EVERY disk). My standards are very high and anything that slips through the net will be thrown back! Only the VERY best PD will make it onto any NOSAUG PD disk!¢¢ I have over 300 disks waiting in the wings! These will be examined and organised until only the best survive. Hold onto your hats for a new standard in PD! At the NOSAUG PD Library, you'll find both quality and unbeatable value for money. Don't forget - our disks are ALL double-sided!¢¢¢Updates¢¢ The following updates have been made to the NOSAUG PD Library since the release of Futura issue 7:¢¢¢* U07 is now THE NOSAUG PALETTE (art programs). The QUICK PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE DEMO DISK has been moved unaltered to the demo section as D19 (technically, it's a demo, not a utility);¢¢* U13 Side B is now DOS 2.5XL & UTILITIES. I thought this was better suited to compliment DOS 2.5 et al on Side A;¢¢* U26 has been renamed ATMOSPHERIC UTILITIES. No change to content;¢¢* G01, TETRIS TERROR, now features Lunacy in place of Tetris and 3D Tetris. The other five Tetris clones remain on the disk;¢¢* G06 Side B is now WHEEL OF FORTUNE;¢¢* G09, G10 and G19 (HOWFEN PD GAMES 1, 2 & 3) have been replaced by a single disk called HOWFEN PD GAMES featuring the best of all three disks. G10 is now GREEDY GUNTHER II. G19 is now TURBO BASIC GAMES;¢¢* G11 (POLE POSITION CON. & ARKANOID EDITOR) has been withdrawn and replaced by TYPE-IN CLASSICS;¢¢* D13 & D14 are now THE HALLE PROJECT;¢¢* The INSIDE INFO disk mags (issues 40-45) have been temporarily withdrawn until I check them for any duplication with other NOSAUG PD disks. I'm also waiting on the next few issues to arrive from Bill in Australia.¢¢¢ I think that's it all for just now. I apologise for these changes but I feel they are necessary in order to create the kind of PD Library I wish to see. The changes above are a result of work carried out on the NOSAUG PD Catalogue. My standards have become even higher than they were when the Library was first started! I still have to catalog a few games disks, most of the demo disks and the Inside Info disks mentioned above. There may be one or two changes to these.¢¢ Please do not worry about these changes. As I've briefly mentioned already, if you've ordered any of the updated disks detailed above or any which may be changed from the current list, you will have the opportunity to swap disks at any time. It is those of you who have supported the Library over these first few months who have allowed it to grow and develop. I will not forget this when updating disks. Again, just let me know if you would like to swap your original disk for the updated version (any postage incurred will be fully refunded).¢¢ The Library will soon be ready to accept many new disks. I feel it is better to make any changes now rather than at a later date. Once the NOSAUG PD Library Catalogue is complete there will be no changes to the disks on offer.¢¢ However, please do not wait for the catalogue. If you fancy some new PD software check out the DISKPD file on this disk for current listings. Your order will help to fund the development of the Library. I've decided to hold the disks at one pound per disk (for 10 or more) until the catalogue is released. There will then be a small change to the price scale with disks remaining at 1.00 to 1.95 depending on how many you purchase. True value for money!¢¢ I have managed to find some time to add a few new disks to the library:¢¢¢The Atari Tutorial (U27)¢¢ A fun tutorial disk for those new to Atari BASIC. It originally covered three disk sides but I've managed to squeeze the complete tutorial onto one disk. I left out the useless computing applications section.¢¢¢Disk Management System (U28 & U29 - 2-disk set for 2.95)¢¢ This is another powerful utility package from OHAUG. There are six programs which together will help you to organise your software collection. The first disk (U28) is packed with the five main programs and docs. Disk U29 contains the original 'Catalog' program with docs. I've left these disks exactly as OHAUG produced them. They received very favourable reviews in American publications.¢¢¢The Halle Project - Hobbytronic 1993 (D13 & D14 - 2-disk set for 2.95)¢¢ I've just replaced D13 and D14 with the wonderful Halle Project demo; the official continuation of the ABBUC Hobbytronic Demo series. You have to see the amazing effect in the Visdom Demo (Part II)!¢¢¢Ol'Hacker's Newsletter disks (OH01/92 - OH05/93)¢¢ See OHAUG.DOC for more details of this interesting and informative disk-based newsletter.¢¢¢¢¢Segaiscrap! (Keep 8-Bitting!)¢¢¢S.J.Murray, NOSAUG PD.¢
