CLIExchange A 592 byte CLI replacement for the standard CBM Exchange
utility. The only difference is that Exchange has a graph-
ical user interface while CLIExchange has been designed to
be called from CLI so it can be used within scripts, menus,
docks or hotkeys. You need at least 2.04 system release.
C source included.

DieserZug A nicely done WorkBench "Worms" type game, where the object
is to gobble up pieces making yourself longer and longer,
while avoiding running into the walls or your "tail".

ITF Amiga port of ITF4.01. ITF stands for "Infocom Task Force".
There have been several ports of Infocom interpreters to the
Amiga, but none of this program. The interpreter supports
v1, v2, v3 (Zork1 to Stationfall), v4 (Trinity, Bureaucracy,
etc.) and v5 (Sherlock, Beyond Zork etc.) games. This is
more than any other freely distributable interpreter. With
this interpreter you can play ALL the games in the LTOI2
package for the IBM PC, by copying the datafiles with Cross-
DOS or similar, then just running this interpreter. Re-
quires OS 2.0+. Binary only.

PCal Creates a very nice looking postscript calendar. By
default, PCal simply prints an empty calendar. Its
real power is in its ability to place ``events'' in
appropriate days on the calendar, thus allowing the
user to create personalized calendars. This is achieved
through the use of a "calendar.dat" file that has
extraordinary flexibility.

Replex REPLace EXecutable. This handy patch substitutes program
names that are about to be executed, e.g. if an icon
default tool specifies ":c/MuchMore" and you prefer to use
"c:TextRead", you can have it defined as such. You won't
have to change the icon. This version also has a "catch"
option to automatically ask for a substitute if a tool
wasn't found. Replex has a font sensitive intuition inter-
face, a snapshot option and an unlimited number of defini-
tions, but requires AmigaDOS v2.04 or later. This is
version 2.0, an update to version 1.0 on disk number 791.
Binary only, shareware.

StartWindow Configurable WorkBench "launch-program" type utility. Opens
a zipwindow that when activated, presents the user with a
listwindow of pre-configured commands. Ideal for those
commands used infrequently enough that you don't want a
dock-icon cluttering up your WorkBench for. Includes
source for both English and German versions.
Author: Heinz Reinert
SuperDuper An exciting, high-speed disk copier and formatter. Typical
timings are 99s for a disk-to-disk verified copy, or 38s for
a four disk non-verified format. Also available are buffer-
ing in RAM, on a hard disk image file or on any sector-
based Amiga device, like RAD:, VDO:, FMS:, etc. Real-time
compression using the Xpk standard allows to copy in one
pass most disks on 1M Amigas, especially in conjunction
with a special utility which "hides" external drives to the
system (but not to SuperDuper). Bells and whistles include
high density floppy support, voice, automatic date incre-
ment, a list of the disks copied, and automatic start of
operations based on disk insertion/ejection sensing. Works
on any Amiga under 2.0 and beyond. The changes from version
3.0 are mainly bug fixes and some new features, namely
optional simple refresh windows, the new NoStartup switch,
automatic source disk reads, and better window management.
Version 3.1, an update to version 3.0 on disk number 903.
Binary only, freeware.

APipe The `APipe-Handler' allows you to add the `APIPE:' DOS
device to your system. This device acts as a pipe between
two programs, but in a different manner than the standard
`PIPE:' device does. This handler interprets the text
after the `APIPE:' prefix as a command line to execute,
and the process/command which opens the file indicated by
the mention of `APIPE:' can now read the standard output
or write the standard input of the program indicated by
the command line depending on whether the `APIPE:' file
was opened for reading or writing, respectively. Thus,
the opening an `APIPE:' file is analogous to the UNIX
`popen()' call, but it is more widely available to the
user. Complete source is included and can be used as an
example of a handler. Version 37.5, an update to version
37.4 on disk number 783.
Author: Per Bojsen
HWGRCS A 3 part distribution of an RCS 5.6.0.1 port to the Amiga,
currently at patch level 8. Part 1 contains the binaries
and documentation in AmigaGuide and "man" format, part 2
contains the source code to RCS, and part 3 contains the
source code and binaries for patch and diffutils. The
Revision Control System (RCS) manages multiple revisions of
text files. RCS automates the storing, retrieval, logging,
identification, and merging of revisions. RCS is useful for
text that is revised frequently, for example: programs, doc-
umentation, graphics, papers, form letters, etc. Included
are RCS 5.6, GNU diffutils 2.6 and an LP utility to support
paged diff outputs. Part 1 on disk 980, part 2 is on disk
981, and part 3 is on disk 982.

Enforcer hits. Public domain, includes source in OBERON-2.
Author: Daniel Amor
ConPaste ConPaste is a 2.0 commodity that allows you to paste clipped
text into anything. Paste into string gadgets. Paste into
any text application. In this new version, ConPaste drops
its priority by 1 when pasting text to allow sufficient
processor time for the receiving task or window to process
the text. When you press a user-defined key or key combina-
tion, ConPaste will take any FTXT found in clipboard unit 0,
convert the text back into input events, and send the input
events into the input stream. The output will go to the
active window or string gadget. This is version 37.25, an
update to the version distributed with ClipWindow by Jim
Harvey, on disk 935.
Author: Carolyn Scheppner
HuntWindows Starting with 2.0 you can make screens bigger than the
visual size of your monitor. On a double-size workbench,
catching windows like requesters etc. can be quite annoying
at times. This little utility hangs itself on the VBI
(Vertical Blank Interrupt) to find out which window is
being activated and moves the screen to show the window in
full view. Version 3.3, an update to version 1.4 on disk
number 774. Includes source in assembler.
Author: Jvrg Bublath

Author: Douglas Nelson
FastJPEG FastJPEG is a fast JPEG picture viewer. Besides being fast,
it has many other advantages. An important goal was to not
trade quality for speed. In fact, FastJPEG is both fast
and has an excellent quality. Most other JPEG viewers
either produce ugly pictures, or need ages to perform the
conversion to HAM mode. Version 1.10, binary only.
Author: Christoph Feck

ForceIcon A utility mainly for users of CD-ROM drives. Since one can
not snapshot the position of a volume's icon, nor replace
it by a user-defined one, this utility was written. Force-
Icon allows you to set the position of a disk's icon and/or
replace it by a different image/icon which doesn't have to
be a disk.info file. All types of ".info" files may be
selected. GiftWare, Version 1.4, includes source.

Author: Douglas Nelson
Imploder The Imploder allows you to reduce the size of executable
files while having them retain their full functionality.
There are other "crunchers" or "packers" available for the
Amiga, but none are as mindful of the complexities of your
Amiga system as the Imploder. In addition to this, its
algorithms are more efficient, both in terms of speed, and
size reduction. Version 4.0, binary only.
