- AnsiMaster - V1.0 by James Davis & Joe Rattz, Jr.
- ANSI Master was designed for the purpose of creating and editing
- ANSI Messages. If you operate a BBS or use a BBS that supports ANSI
- codes, ANSI Master is ideal for creating displays and possibly menus
- if the program will allow ANSI menus. There are a few features
- we are using that have not yet been seen in other programs.
-
- Append - by Oliver Enseling
- An easier way to join 2 or more files without a lot of clean-up.
- AmigaDos JOIN does not allow to append one file to another without some
- roundabout ways. You have to JOIN the two files, delete the old ones
- and rename the new file. APPEND serves to shorten this procedure.
-
- DekIII - V1.11 by Christian Warren. An update to V1.10 on Scopedisk 153
- DEKSID is a disk and file HEXADECIMAL editor. It gets useful when
- you want to edit things other than readable texts. It might look
- complicated for you beginners, but it's simply because beginners don't
- see the use of these.
-
- DevRename - V1.5 by Stefan Rosewig.
- Rename any Device, such as DF1: in an A2000 when you have only 1
- internal floppy plus external drive(s) you may rename the DF2: as DF1:.
-
- Dr - V1.1 by Paul Kienitz.
- CLI Directory with default setting of not listing .info files. Replaces
- AmigaDos Dir with a some speed advatages and more options.
-
- DSize - by Gregg A. Reno.
- This command is designed to take an AmigaDOS disk or directory and
- display it and its sub-directories to the screen. It will also display
- the disk space used by each directory, including all of the files and
- directories below it.
-
- George - 3 sound files supposed to be George Bush....really? doesn't sound
- likely. Uses sound file in C directory.
-
- HunkFix - V1.4 by Arthur Hagen.
- The Amiga computer performs what is called "scatter-loading"
- of all programs that is run. This means that programs most often
- consists of several small parts that can be loaded anywhere in memory.
- These smaller parts are referred to as "hunks". The different
- hunks in a program are joined together with some special information
- to form a loadable file.
-
- Icon2C - V1.2 by Olaf 'Olsen' Barthel.
- It is easy to read and to write Workbench icon files, but there aren't
- any tools to turn icons into 'C' source code yet. Icon2C will read
- any type of icon file and create 'C' source code ready to be used.
-
- IP_Device - by Pete Goodeve.
- A pipe device that can make a bi-directional connection without a
- buffered connection. "IP:" is a handler that may be mounted in your
- system like any other AmigaDOS device, to provide you with both
- standard "pipe" type facilities and a number of features not
- available elsewhere.
-
- JoyLib - by Oliver Wagner.
- Joystick routine for "any" language. This is a new joystick routine with
- a special algorithm. There are two versions of the routines: 1) standard
- ".o" linkage for any language able to call "_joy0/1" and compatible to
- BLINK format, 2) a shared library (thanks to BLINK) for such nifty
- things like Modula and all... A .fd for building interfaces to *any*
- language is provided.
-
- LockDevice - V1.0 by Olaf 'Olsen' Barthel.
- If you have ever accidentally formatted your hard disk drive, you are
- probably searching for an equivalent to the small black write protect
- tab used by floppy disks. If locked, FastFileSystem rejects all write
- requests, but that still is not enough since you can still go directly
- to the device driver and ask to format a track. 'LockDevice' installs
- a patch at the device driver level to reject all icoming write and
- format requests thus reducing the chance of accidentally formatting
- the hereby protected data media.
-
- LPatch - V3.0 by John Toebes.
- PTCH IFF Format as implemented by LCompare and LPatch programs. The
- PTCH IFF format provides a standard method of describing patches
- for arbitrary binary (and of course ASCII) data. The patch format
- allows for descriptive text to be included as part of the patch as
- well as checksumming information to ensure the validity of the patch.
-
- NoClick - Stop floppy's from clicking when there is no disk in the drive.
- No docs so suppose it goes in your path and is included in the
- startup-sequence. Dead hamburgers don't fit drives.
-
- TAR - V1.2
- "Media File Archiver", stores multiple files in a single archive.
- Tar provides a way to store many files into a single archive, which
- can be kept in another file, stored on an I/O device such as tape,
- floppy, cartridge, or disk, or piped to another program. It is useful
- for making backup copies, or for packaging up a set of files to move
- them to another system.
