avmNfax 1.33 Voicemail/fax for voice-capable modems
This is release 1.33 of avmNfax, a voicemail/fax program
that supports ZyXEL, LineLink, Dolphin modems,
and Rockwell modems. Supras are not supported with
this release.
This version includes its own fax program, printer
driver, fax printer, and fax viewer. This fax program
can be used with Class 1 and Class 2 fax modems. It can
also be used with the voice modems that AVM supports.
It can also work in conjunction with GPFax (or TrapFax)
and AXsh (other fax programs or BBSes may be substituted
with some ARexx programming) to provide voice, fax, and
data, all on one line.
This version is a rewrite of ZVM and it requires
MUI 1.4 or greater (it is known to work on MUI 2.0).
It supports multiple lines (if you have multiple
modems of the same type). You can use avmNfax as a
simple answering machine with fax capabilities,
or use it to provide multiple mailboxes. It can play
different "intro" messages depending on the time of day,
day of week, random, or manual selection. You can retrieve
your messages remotely, etc. The caller can
be told of a forwarding number when he enters
a particular mailbox. There are many enhancements
since 1.19 was released.
To reduce setup time, I highly recommend that you
also get the pre-recorded English voice files. Look
for anything that starts with AVMV (like AVMVEngCVSD7200.lha,
AVMVEngADPCM2.lha, etc.).

Designer 1.42 GUI Creator for C & HSPascal, V1.42
The Designer is a tool which makes programming intuition interfaces far
easier. It allows you to create Windows and Menus which can then be turned
into source code by the Producers. At present there are two producers,
the CProducer and the PasProducer, more producers may become available in
the future. The Designer supports the importing of images which can then
be used in windows or menus as well as being placed in the produced source
code for your use. Menus are created using the GadTools library and
support V38+ features, text and image items are allowed, keyboard shortcuts
and mutual exclusion are supported along with all standard flags,
localization of menus is easily added. Menus are all NewLook menus in
V38+. Windows are the main part of the Designer. You can create all
standard GadTools Gadgets and intuition Boolean Gadgets with all standard
options. Text and Images can also be placed on the window as you choose.
Extensive options are available to edit the code produced which should cover
most eventualities, almost all tags for windows and gadgets are supported
including many V38+ tags. The Designer can produce IDCMP handling routines
for windows and menus and can create a main file which in many cases will
allow the production of an entire program, the programmer just has to fill
in the gaps. In V1.4 GadToolsBox files can now be imported to allow
enhancement of your previous creations. Full locale support is now
included to make programming in multiple languages as easy as possible.
Registered users can upgrade to the latest version by using the latest demo
version. Extensive on line help is available using amigaguide.library,
this must be available for this feature.

MUI 2.1 Object oriented graphical user interface
An object oriented system to create and maintain graphical user
interfaces. From a programmer's point of view, using MUI saves a lot
of time and makes life much easier. Thinking about complicated terms
like window resizing or font sensitivity is simply not neccesary. On
the other hand, users of MUI based applications have the ability to
customize nearly every pixel of a program's interface according to
their personal taste. Includes developers support package and several
demos.

==========
Triton 1.0 An object oriented GUI creation system.
A standard Amiga shared, runtime library. Triton makes it much easier to
create good-looking graphical user interfaces (GUIs) than GadTools,
BOOPSI or other systems.
The most important features are:
- Object oriented system
- Automatically font sensitive, font adaptive
- Automatic keyboard shortcuts for default window actions
- *Really* easy to use
- Beautiful OS2.x/3.x look
- Comes as a freely distributable shared library
- Size! Though Triton is very powerful, it is a shared library of less
than 40KB. You don't need any startup tools, editors, BOOPSI classes
or other things. It's the Triton among the minnows of GUI creation
systems ;)
- Resizeability of windows wherever applicable
- No large stack required
By using Triton you don't have to worry about otherwise very time-consuming
things like font-sensitivity and resizeability of your windows. What is
even more important is that you can easily change your user interfaces
later without having to rearrange display objects. Simply add an object
to a group and the whole GUI will adapt to make room for it.
The usage of a Triton GUI should be pretty clear. All windows have two
additional keyboard shortcuts (if not explicitly disabled by the
application): 'Esc' will simulate the 'close window' gadget and 'Del' will
simulate the 'resize window' gadget. In palette, slider, scroller and
similar gadgets with an up/down facility you can use the shifted shortcut
to decrease the value.

ALSt 3.04 Amiga Little Smalltalk version 3.04
Amiga Little Smalltalk version 3.04. A port of Timothy Budd's version 3
of Little Smalltalk. The first port of version 3 to the Amiga (that I
know of) was by Dan Griffin. This port adds to that one the use of
Guido van Rossum's Standard Windows library to provide a simple ANSI
character and escape code based windowing facility. This allows Amiga
Little Smalltalk to include a class/method browser and an integrated text
editor. Although the windowing facility is a bit slow, it makes this
version a much better learning tool than previous ports.

AmiCDROM 1.11 ISO-9660 standard CDROM filesystem
A CDROM disk filing system for the Amiga. It supports the ISO-9660
standard and the Rock Ridge Interchange Protocol. The CDROM drive is
mounted as a DOS device (e.g. CD0:). You can access files and directories
on a CDROM disk by the usual syntax, e.g. "type cd0:foo/readme.txt".

Path: disk/cdrom/AmiCDROM/
==========
mkisofs 1.00.5 Simple ISO-9660 pre-mastering utility.
A pre-mastering program to generate an ISO-9660 filesystem. It takes
a snapshot of a given directory tree, and generates a binary image
which will correspond to an ISO-9660 filesystem when written to a
block device.
It is also capable of generating the System Use Sharing Protocol
records specified by the Rock Ridge Interchange Protocol. This is
used to further describe the files in the ISO-9660 filesystem to a
unix host, and provides information such as longer filenames, uid/gid,
posix permissions, and block and character devices.
Each file written to the ISO-9660 filesystem must have a filename in
the 8.3 format (8 characters, period, 3 characters, all upper case),
even if Rock Ridge is in use. This filename is used on systems that
are not able to make use of the Rock Ridge extensions (such as
MS-DOS), and each filename in each directory must be different from
the other filenames in the same directory.
mkisofs generally tries to form correct names by forcing the unix
filename to upper case and truncating as required, but often times
this yields unsatisfactory results when there are cases where the
truncated names are not all unique. mkisofs assigns weightings to
each filename, and if two names that are otherwise the same are found
the name with the lower priority is renamed to have a 3 digit number
as an extension (where the number is guaranteed to be unique). An
example of this would be the files foo.bar and foo.bar.~1~ - the file
foo.bar.~1~ would be written as FOO.000;1 and the file foo.bar would
be written as FOO.BAR;1. "path" is the path of the directory tree to
be copied into the ISO-9660 filesystem.
(AmigaDOS Note: The AmigaDOS port relaxes the above restrictions to
produce ISO-9660 level 2 compatible ISO images)

AM 1.0 Maintains users and groups in muFS
AM was written to support the muFS system operator's work by supplying
an easy-to-use user interface based on MUI (Magic User Interface) by
Stefan Stuntz.
The following gives you a quick overview on AM's facilities:
* localized (currently English, German, Netherlands, Norwegian,
Portuguêse, and Swedish catalogs)
* needs and makes extensive use of MUI 2.0 (`muimaster.library'
version 7+)
* supports the following operations on the muFS system files
- create new users/groups
- edit any characteristics of an existing user/group
- delete users/groups
- temporarily ban a user from the system
* automatically creates new $HOME directories and installs default
files there by executing a user supplied script
* checks $HOME directories (not functional yet)
* searches muFS partitions for files with bad owner information and
changes them

Crackdown ?.? AGuide of _The Hacker Crackdown_
In 1992 Bruce Sterling (mostly known for his SciFi) published a book
called _The Hacker Crackdown_. This book told about... well... hackers
and crackers. :-)
In the beginning of 1994 he released the book in electronic form, as
"literary freeware". The original release was in ASCII format, but it
was converted to TeXinfo by Joerg Heitkoetter. Finally, yesterday I
converted it to AmigaGuide format using makeinfo. So don't thank me
about anything, the largest effort I had to do was to write this

AmigaMUD 0.5 Amiga Multi-User Dungeon game
The AmigaMUD system is a software system for the Commodore Amiga line
of computers which implements a MUD (Multi-User-Dungeon). MUDs have
existed on various computers for about 20 years, usually run at
universities on networked computers. In a typical MUD, several people
connect to the system at the same time and interact by typing in
messages and commands to the MUD. MUDs are usually set up somewhat
like text adventures, in that they contain a small world in which the
players can explore, solve puzzles, etc. MUDs add to the adventure the
possibility of interaction, within the world, of the various players.
Players can talk to others in the same location; they can cooperate in
solving puzzles; they can compete in improving their characters or
personnas; they can engage in combat, etc.
The world in which the MUD is set is chosen and built by one or more
people who are the implementors or "wizards" or "gods" of the MUD. MUD
worlds have been set in various fictional as well as real situations,
such as Star Trek, Xanth, the Discworld, etc. Other MUDs specialize in
role playing, where the players pick a persona and do their best to
stay within it. For example, "furries" on FurryMUD all pick a furred
animal as their character.
Many MUDs exist on the 'internet', the international network of
computer systems, mostly supported by various governments. Amiga
computers are not often on this network, so they will usually get
their multiple players through serial ports and modems. Amiga-based
BBS systems often have multiple lines, and these can be used for
connections to AmigaMUD.
Today, most MUDs are strictly text based. That is, users do all
operations in the MUD by typing commands, and all output is via text
messages. In the last couple of years, colour graphics have become
quite common on home computers and workstations. MUDs are beginning to
take advantage of that capability by introducing simple graphics
output. Sound output is also possible.
AmigaMUD provides graphics and sound output as a standard element. It
also allows the use of the mouse and numeric keypad as input. The
system still provides the full text input and output interfaces,
however, and can be used in a text-only mode. The standard
availability of graphics output and mouse input can change the nature
of a MUD, and make it available to those who aren't terribly good at
typing, or who are uncomfortable with computers.

MoonWalk ?.? Moonwalk animation done w/ Imagine 2.9
This is an animation of a lunarnaut taking off from the surface of the
moon with his rocket pack and then flying off over some lunar
mountains. The animation was made with Imagine 2.9, single frame
RGB8-24, then converted to HAM Interlace Overscan Opt-Code 5 with
ADPro. I use HAM Interlace Overscan because it looks quite good
genlocked to videotape and I have an ECS A3000, no 24-bit graphics
card (yet). It is over 2 MB in length. I recommend using View 3.6
for viewing animations and BigAnim if you don't have the memory and
need to view it from a harddisk.

and use the same colour scheme of gray, black, white
and blue as the original icons.
IconPack contains icons for all standard Workbench files,
plus icons for some popular PD/shareware programs, hard-disk
related tools, and all usual datafiles (such as pictures,
textfiles, music etc.)
IconPack also includes the Iconizer utility to make the
installation of images from one icon to another as effortless
as possible. Iconizer changes only the imagery of icons, not
affecting the tool types, position, etc.
Source and destination icons can be selected either according to
a script, or manually with appwindow/file requester support.
Sporting a font-sensitive, graphical user-interface, Iconizer
lets you see the new image and the original image side-by-side,
before the installation, and lets you install or reject icons on
an icon-by-icon basis.
A script for Iconizer is provided that installs the icons from
IconPack to you workbench.

QuickTools is the tool-package for the harddisk-owner who is tired of
writing long pathnames when changing directories and who doesn't have the
time to search for files manually. QuickTools consists mainly of four small
utilities and a library where the search-routines are. All search-routines
support standard AmigaDOS wildcards.
The utilites are:
Qcd: Change directory by only writing enough of the directory name to
identify it. The directory can be anywhere on the harddisk.
QFind: Search for files.
QPop: A commodity for file and directory searching.
QMan A documentation finding utility using the database to locate the
documentation file for a specified program.

FMath 40.4 Replacement for the math libraries
This set of libraries is a replacement for the original libraries by
Commodore. They are written in highly optimized assembler code using
the 68881/68882 FPU chips and the 68040 FPU directly without any
emulation or compatibility overhead. So they are much faster, much
smaller, and still 100% compatible.

FTP 2.00 Psuedo FTP session for CD-ROM access
This program was originally setup for a BBS to be able to
access a CD-ROM online via a door. It simulates an FTP
session and is perfect for use to get files off the Aminet
or Fred Fish "Frozen Fish" CD collections. The program
is a cli utility that allows you to CD, LIST, DIR, GET, VIEW,
and other commands on the CD ROM. This program is shareware
with a fee of $10 if you decided to use it. Not only does
the program allow you to move around, you can grab files, and
even view the contents of archives(ZIP, LHA, LZH, LZ, ARC, and
ZOO are supported) and read me files.
The versitility of this program extends beyond the CD-ROM
access since you can use it to access any directory tree in
the same manner. It is perfect for a BBS, allowing the users
to move down a directory tree but yet prevents them from
accessing other parts of you system.
The Amiga Zone BBS (609)953-8159, the primary support BBS.

KlingNum 1.1 Converts decimal numbers into Klingon
It converts decimal numbers that you give it into longhand Klingon.
The English equivalent would be a program that, when you give it 531,
returns "five hundred and thirty-one". The source I used for my
numbering-system data only included the suffixes for numbers up into
the millions range, so the highest number it can translate into
Klingon is 9,999,999 - it also can't translate decimals, as those
weren't covered in the Klingon Dictionary either.
