JACKET PRINT, LAZYLOAD,¢ DIRECTORY PRINT (by Our own JIM HAMMERGREN), GUP, new¢ programing tricks (with demo), KLEIDSCOPE (a wow of a¢ graphic display which YOU control with your joystick- I¢ guarantee that it will overwhelm you with its colors and¢ versatility), MENUOHAC,(OL' HACKER titled menu), and CAR¢ FINANCE, a program to figure your costs when buying a car or¢ anything. The game is FAIRWAY (a 218 sector basic GOLF game),¢ very much fun to play. You pick your own club, strength of¢ shot and direction.¢ SIDE -2- UTILITIES. Remember the demo of BOOTDIR (for DOS 2.0¢ &/or 2.5)? It puts your directory on screen w/in 2 seconds,¢ while rest of disk loads! LOADRAM (also was demo'ed), will¢ load programs into your RAMDISK, if you use [.RAM] as the¢ extender. NUDISKLABLE, is in my opinion, the best labeler for¢ your disk jacket. The main title is 38 large characters, and¢ the program names are in 4 columns and small font. If you¢ have won a DOOR PRIZE, you have probably seen the results.--¢ TEXTMAN.DOCS, EXP 850 CONVERTER, EXP 850 DOCS, FIXXL,¢ DISKFIX, (no explaination necessary for these), and one of¢ the best MENU PROGRAMS I have seen (77 sectors), with all¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢ kinds of options, including customizing. ¢ WITHOUT ANY EXAGGERATION- These are some of the best values¢ in the library. GRAB THIS ONE TOO!¢¢ 60 SPARTA DOS TOOLBOX- PUBLIC DOMAIN- Sides 1 and 2. ¢ You could buy ICD's TOOLBOX for SPARTA DOS, or you could buy¢ this one, which has almost all of the commercial ICD¢ utilities, including the latest version, JAN 1989 "UNARC.COM"¢ by BOB PUFF. Also you will find that because most of the¢ programs are "ARC'd" the disk is really loaded, almost all¢ are with DOCS! Included are:¢ SCANNER.ARC, SUPERKEY.ARC, MENU_X2.ARC, RAMDSCAN.ARC,¢ COMMBUFF.ARC, WHATIS15.ARC, XF32d.ARC, XMOVE21.ALF,¢ FASTLOAD.BAS, FORMAT.COM, NCHSET.ARC, and as a special BONUS:¢ AWPLUS.TXT, AWPMOD.TXT (AWP=ATARIWRITER), and finally but not¢ least PLFIX.BAS (PLANETARIUM Fix). Can you see the tremendous¢ value here? *********¢¢ # 61 This disk is called "OL' HACKER'S FINANCE" Its menu¢ consists of twelve of the most wanted catagories to take care¢ of all your financial needs. The disk has titles such as:¢ "BUSINESS CALCULATIONS", with it's own directory of (14)¢ catagories (as do most of these prgrams), "HOME FINANCE¢ EXPENSE RECORDS", "MORTGAGE LOAN CALCULATIONS", "MORTGAGE¢ COMPARISIONS", "INSTALLMENT PAYMENTS", and more. If all that¢ wasn't enough, there is a real winner included named "MONEY¢ MATTERS". A must for your financial needs and record keeping¢ and to boot, and all in living color. This is the P.D.¢ version of "FINANCIAL COOKBOOK" without the price tag of¢ $30.00. ANOTHER SURE FIRE VALUE!¢¢ #62: A FANTSTIC GAMES DISK. Side 1 has a good fast action¢ game called "BOULDERDASH", but, watch out for those boulders!¢ Takes about 1-1/2 minutes to initialize, so be patient. Side¢ 2 has a great downhill skiing game with nice graphics called¢ "SKI KING II". This "must have" game has the option of¢ creating your own obstacles. I spent several hours playing¢ this one.¢¢ #63 PINBALLS ANYONE? Here's another great games disk for all¢ you pinball freaks! Side 1 has two M/L games called¢ "SOFTBALL" and "CREEPSHOW". "SOFTBALL" has great pinball¢ action on a softball diamond. The OPTION key lets you select¢ up to four players. "CREEPSHOW" has lots of fast action. I¢ was able to keep one ball going for a full five minutes after¢ only a few trys. Both games require joystick and you must¢ hold OPTION down while booting. Side 2 has a BASIC game¢ called "HIDDEN FORTRESS". this "maze" type of game has¢ built-in instructions at the menu after autoloading.¢¢ #64 BINARY GAMES DISK. Side 1 of this menu driven disk has¢ many classic games - Some by the great TOM HUDSON of ANALOG¢ COMPUTING fame. Side 2 has more menu driven classic games.¢ Try "FIGHTERPLANE" or try "BOMBERS" which gives you two¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢ player action or you can play against the computer. My¢ favorite is "ROCKS" - TRY IT! It's great!¢¢ #65 Here's ANOTHER GREAT GAMES DISK for all you gamers out¢ there. For you "Trekies", side 1 has "STAR TREK III". Horse¢ racing fans will like DERBY DOWNS" which has the horses¢ performances determined by the computer generated statistics.¢ From AUSTRALIA comes an unusual game called "XAGON". I had a¢ lot of fun with this one. Try "ROTO" and @ave the planet¢ "Arcadia" in this arcade type binary game. Side 2 has¢ "XEVIOUS" - an 'Atari 5200' game converted for the 8-BIT¢ computer with vertical scrolling arcade action. Don't forget¢ to disable 'BASIC' when loading. Try "GAUNTLET" (shareware)¢ for fast arcade action¢¢ *********************¢¢ #66 to #72 - ICONS, 7 DISKS DOUBLE SIDED of ICONS-ICONS-ICONS¢ and more ICONS! Here's more good stuff from 'BIT BYTER' in W.¢ GERMANY. For all GRAPHICS afficiandos!¢¢ 73 and 74 BORDERS and ICONS on both disks- Each worth twice¢ the price. These are both single sided disk, but each is¢ loaded with all kinds of BORDERS and FONTS-It will dress up¢ all of your DESKTOP GRAPHICS MASTERPIECES!¢¢ NOTE: I have tried to accurately advise what is on each disk,¢ and have even photocopied some of the ICONS disks, and given¢ them out. Hope you got one. If not, ask around and get copies¢ for your self. ¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢
