- STRIPES - Stripes is a program that will create a multi-shaded
- effect for your workbench screen. With the program you have
- complete control of the effects that you want.
-
- DLABEL - DLabel is a simple but useful utility for printing 3.5" disk labels
- with an IBM compatible printer. Its use is self-explanatory --
- simply click on the CLEAR gadget to erase the startup text, enter
- your data, and click the PRINT gadget to send it to your printer.
- *** Note that DLabel works only with IBM compatible printers!
-
- EDIBLE2 - This program will do many things to modify a file in order
- to make it EDible. First, it will remove all characters that ED
- cannot handle. It will also remove the CR/LFs of many files as when
- using ED, only LFs are needed and CR/LFs will leave lots of messy
- double spacing in the file. To get usage of the program, just type
- EDible. An optional third comment may be added if you like. This can
- be a number from 0-255. It will tell the program the maximum line
- length you want.
-
- RULER3 - Opens a borderless WorkBench window in which is contained a ruler
- for the purpose of aligning or constraining text; the default ruler
- is 30 characters intended to help prevent entering too-long filenames.
- The program will automatically adjust itself to fit your personal
- screen configuration (ie. MoreRows).
-
- MFFCIS - These are some AREXX programs to help you manage Compuserve data
- libraries using Microfiche Filer and AREXX. These will take WHAP TAPCIS
- ".CAT" files and put them into a MFF database. Duplicates may be
- deleted. Also included is a MFF database of the AmigaTech library with
- uploads from July to mid-December -- Art Steinmetz

- PICS - Just to look at !! Includes the AMY500 pic.
-
- AMY500 - This is a picture of the Amiga 500 from the INSIDE. Shows the main
- board, chip locations, and board layout. This picture comes from one of
- those "Utility" disks from Europe called "The Firm", so the original
- artist is not known. I just captured the picture, added the 68000 CPU
- which was missing, touched up Fat Agnus a little, and added the labels.
- Let me know if the labels are not right because its been awhile since I
- have opened up a 500. John Gager
-
- SIMPLE - A very simple ARexx macro for TxEd+ to show beginners how to go
- through a file doing things until the file is finished. Highly
- commented I deleted the comments and resaved it as Template.txed, so I
- can use it as a starting point and memory-jogger for the few occasions
- when I need to write a macro. For beginners only.

- DSDELUXE - Disk Storage Deluxe displays more info about floppies, hard disks
- ram, etc. than you every need to know. Its window will pop up on ANY
- screen. Warns you when free storage in any device drops below a
- specific level by flashing, beeping, a requester, or speaking! This is
- the 'Deluxe' version of the old Disk Storage with many new things and
- it is very robust now. Definitely something you shouldn't miss. Get
- it! Khalid.
-
- MAXCLI - For those of you who don't know, AmigaDOS has a ceiling of 20 for
- the maximum number of CLI's you can have open at once. Well, this
- little utility that fits nicely at the top of your s-s changes that to
- 255, which is more than even the most memory-rich user will probably
- ever need.
-
- FONTS - Four more fonts Florence,San Diego,ST and Steelbrush
-
- A3000 - A "what-if" sketch of the way someone else would have designed it!!
-
- COLOURTEXT - This program wedges the standard Amiga Text() call to provide
- support for ColorFonts(tm). ColorFonts(tm) is the multi-colored Amiga
- font standard developed by Interactive Softworks. ColorFont(tm)
- characters can have from 2 to 16 different colors, and are generally
- created by using InterActive Softworks Calligrapher program.
- The ColorFonts(tm) standard has been adopted as part of the V1.4 Amiga
- Operating System.
-
- FILETYPE - Identifies the type of files by examining the first 512 bytes
- and using heuristics (i.e. it guesses). For instance, it distinguishes
- C programs from Assembly from Modula II from Smalltalk from English text
- it knows about the different icon types, device drivers, libraries,
- Aztec file types, arc, zoo, IFF files, etc. I did my best to have it
- recognize every file type I could get my hands on. Currently works only
- from the cli.
-
- REXXARP21 - This is for now the last release of rexxarplib.library. A
- couple of new functions, a few were extended, and one or two were
- slightly modified.The nicest new feature is the ability to display IFF
- files. For this you will need Christian Weber's iff.library, though. It
- is available on BIX as iff153.zoo: I have not included it in this
- archive.
