- Software 2000
-
- Welcome to the AGA software compilation Disk four.
-
- *************************************************************************
-
- All programs will work on AGA/KS3.0 equiped Amigas, some will work with
- ECS/KS3.0, ECS/KS2.04 or (even!) OCS/KS1.3 Amigas.
-
- All doc files have icons but not all programs were supplied with icons
- so I did not add any. More (the standard text reader) must be in
- the WorkBench Path to view the docs (ie if you are reading this then
- it probably is!). More is found in the SYS:Utilities drawer.
-
- Also, this disk is formatted with the FastFileSystem. Only KS2.04 or
- greater supports FFS on floppys, so don't wonder why the disk is
- unreadable on a KS1.3 or less system!
-
- I hope you find some of these programs useful.
-
- Thanks must go to the various authors of the programs for getting
- AGA supported software out so quickly.
-
