  STORM v1.02 by Alan Page - A full featured GEM based telecomms program  with
  its own built-in BASIC language.  This allows you to control STORM's actions
  from script files.  STORM is modular,  so upgrading the program to emulate a
  different  type of terminal or a new transfer protocol is simply a  case  of
  obtaining the appropriate 1module and reconfiguring your system.  The current
  version  can  be  configured to emulate  TTY,  VT100/VT102/VT52  and  Vidtex
  terminals.  File transfers in ASCII,  CompuServe BPlus, X/Y/Z-Modem (and the
  numerous variants of these) are all catered for. This program was originally
  marketed  commercially by Double Click Software but has since been  upgraded
  and  re-released as Shareware.  It will run on any ST/STE,  TT,  Mega ST  or
  Falcon030  and  is  compatible with  MultiTOS,  large  screen  monitors  and
  graphics  cards.  Extensive  docs on disk running to well  over  100k.  Very
  highly recommended, probably the best comms program there is!

  INTERNET  - Two text files which will prove invaluable to comms  users.  The
  first  is  entitled 'Zen and the Art of the Internet'.  It is  a  beginners'
  guide  covering everything you'll ever need to know about Internet and  runs
  to 102 pages!  The second file is titled 'ARCHIE' and is a 16 page reference
  guide  to using the Internet archive server listing service,  also known  as
  ARCHIE.

  EMAILLST  - A massive text file list the EMail addresses on all the  popular
  networks  (and  the  home address in many cases) of  the  vast  majority  of
  today's Shareware writers and a number of companies too.  The emphasis is on
  German writers but others are included.

  FM TERMINAL V1.0H - A GEM based (or TOS based, you choose) terminal emulator
  with a host of features .  It emulates ASCII,  VT52,  ANSI and IGS terminals
  and  allows  transfers at speeds of up to 19,200 (if your modem  can  cope).
  ASCII,  X-Modem,  Y-Modem,  Z-Modem  and Y-Modem G are  all  supported.  The
  program  has  an auto dialer which can store up to 16  numbers,  allows  the
  serial  buffer to be set as high as 32k and supports  keyboard  macros.  The
  documentation  is pretty sparse but the program is very easy to use and  all
  your settings can be saved for use in your next section.

  HSMODEM7  - A collection of modular serial port patches for the ST,  TT  and
  Falcon. Allows very high serial port speeds up to 57600 baud, or 115200 baud
  with a hardware modification. As well as fixing various hardware bugs on the
  serial port, HS Modem also gives a faster throughput even with slower modems
  due  to the removal of the bottleneck caused by the restricted  port  speed.
  Also increases communication speed via the Midi ports. Now with English docs
  and an easy to use setup program.

  CONNECT  '95  -  An impressive terminal emulator which  can  emulate   VT52,
  VT100,  VT102/ANSI and VT220 terminals.  In VT100,  VT102 or VT220 mode, you
  can  even  emulate  a  TEK  4014  graphics  terminal.   All  emulations  are
  implemented  for both serial and MIDI ports.  Connect is entirely GEM  based
  and both English and German versions are supplied,  although we've set it up
  for English.  It has everything you need to log on to your favourite BBS and
  more.  This program offers more emulation modes than most and it runs on any
  Atari, even under Multi-TOS. There's very little by way of documentation but
  an  extensive on-line Help function is built into the  program.  Nothing  is
  disabled  in this Shareware version.  The only restriction is  that  Connect
  only  remains fully usable for 30 hours in total.  After that time you  will
  need  to register your copy.  UK users can register with  System  Solutions,
  full details on disk.

  THE BBS DIRECTORY by Mark Westguard - This helpful utility displays a map of
  the  British  Isles and has a number of options which allow  you  to  locate
  bulletin boards which are local to you.  This Shareware version merely gives
  the  name and telephone number of about 100 boards.  Register for £5 to  get
  the  full  version which features over 400 boards along with  info  on  most
  boards.

  BAUDRATE  V1.1 - Locks your modem to your chosen baud rate.  In most  cases,
  the  modem switches down to the baud rate of the incoming  signal.  However,
  you  cannot benefit from MNP compression unless your modem is running  at  a
  higher  baud rate than the incoming signal.  This program allows you  to  do
  this.

  GSZRZ  V6.6  - An excellent implementation of the SZ and RZ  protocols  from
  Unix.  These  programs are intended for transferring files using the  ZModem
  protocol. An ACC version is also supplied for intended use with Rufus, but I
  suspect  it will work within any GEM based comms program.  Programs  are  in
  English but docs in German. Register for v4 and you get English docs too!

  ANSI ST V0.40 by Uncensored Software - A Shareware patch which remaps  ASCII
  character  codes  to their ANSI equivalents when using TOS  based  programs.
  This program currently makes Vanterm,  TeddyTerm (on this disk) and  Ratsoft
  BBS fully ANSI compatible.  Please note that this patch has no effect on GEM
  based software.

  MSB  ANSI  by Mark Baines - Three bitmapped fonts which replace  the  system
  font  if  using NVDI,  Warp 9,  Fontkit or NeoDesk.  They contain  the  ANSI
  characters  above  ASCII 127 rather than  their  Atari  equivalents,  making
  terminal emulators ANSI compatible.  Also useful for viewing documents which
  contain  PC graphic characters.

  MOUNTAIN  QWK  v2.8  by Anthony Watson - Full  featured  QWK  off-line  mail
  reader.  QWK is a protocol for bundling all your messages from/to a BBS into
  one compressed file.  This method saves lots of online time!  You will  also
  need  the  ARC,  LZH  or ZIP archivers,  depending  on  your  BBS  settings.
  Functions  include  offline conference configuration,  twit  file  and  many
  others. Needs at least 1 Meg, works better with 2 Meg or more.

  SHADOWTERM  II by Michel Forget - A nice easy to use communications  package
  which has everything you're ever likely to need to log onto a bulletin board
  and  up/download files.  Everything is handled by either drop down menus  or
  keyboard shortcuts and the program has been configured to automatically  run
  the  appropriate file transfer program.  Up to ten external programs can  be
  launched  with a single keypress and there's an on-line notepad  which  lets
  you compose and send messages while connected.  Up to forty keyboard  macros
  can  be  set up to send out predefined strings of characters and  there's  a
  pretty  comprehensive  telephone dialer which holds the number of up  to  20
  BBSs  and their associated logon sequences.  An interesting feature  is  the
  ability  to monitor up to three numbers and call the first one that  becomes
  free (avoids having to redial after an engaged tone). This Shareware version
  has  a 30 minute time limit per session.  Register to have this removed  and
  get a few extras thrown in too!

  TEDDY  TERM  V2.14  by Mark Matts - A complete terminal program  which  uses
  ANSI,  VT100, VT52 & ASCII terminal emulations. Can be set for virtually any
  imaginable  configuration.  Many options including modem setup,  rough  call
  costing,  X-Modem,  Y-Modem and Z-Modem support, RS232 buffer sizes, ST, Mac
  or  PC  font,  use  of both left and right mouse  buttons   and  auto  logon
  sequences.  If  fact  Teddy Term can even 'learn' logon sequences  and  save
  these  for  future  use!  Up to 45 BBS numbers can be  stored  in  the  dial
  directory and up to 40 keyboard macros can be used to help cut down on  your
  on-line typing.  Different capture buffers can be set up for different BBS's
  and for different days with data being stored for up to 21 days. This latest
  version also supports the Jekyll file transfer protocol which lets you  send
  and  receive  at the same time.  Jekyll and XYZ transfer programs  are  also
  included with the package.  Teddy Term is not GEM based but instead  employs
  the use of pop-up menus to configure everything.  Powerful,  yet easy to set
  up and use. Highly recommended.

  HTML DOCS - Extensive documentation on HyperText Markup Language (HTML)  and
  how to use it to create your own documents for the World Wide Web. There's a
  detailed explanation of the HTML v1.0 standard, a quick start guide and some
  examples of HTML in operation.

  FSERIAL  V0.96E by Roman Hodeck - A comprehensive program which attempts  to
  fix  the problem with the RTS/CTS handshaking.  The problem Atari  computers
  have,  occurs when a high speed modem is used in conjunction with ZMODEM  or
  any near continuous flow transfer program is used to send data.  The failure
  to  support  the  RTS/CTS  protocol properly results  in  the  modem  buffer
  overflowing  and  this  leads to errors in  data  transmission.  Fserial  is
  supplied as an Auto folder patch and CPX module for use with XControl.

  FLASH 2 DEMO V2.2 - A usable demo of a comprehensive communications. Flash 2
  supports ASCII,  Xmodem, Ymodem, Modem7, WXmodem, Kermit, SEAlink and Zmodem
  transfers. Supported terminal emulations include TTY, Prestel, Vidtex, Ansi,
  VT52, VT100, VT102, VT200 and VT300. It has a dial directory which holds the
  names of your favourite 40 BBSs (limited to 5 in the demo),  allowing you to
  simply  click  the  appropriate name to dial the  board.  Each  BBS  has  an
  extensive  info  page  into  which you can  enter  your  logon  id,  default
  protocols  and such like.  You can even specify call charges  for  different
  times of the day/week and Flash will log details of how much it has cost you
  to be on-line for the current month and how much kilobytes of files you have
  uploaded  and  downloaded.  The  number  of  user  customisable  options  is
  staggering!  This demo has a few functions disabled,  regularly reminds  you
  that  it is a demo and limits the size of uploads and downloads to  50K.  It
  also limits you to 40 minutes per session.

  FREEZE  DRIED TERMINAL V2.20 - Originally an ST program,  this  version  has
  been fixed to run on the Falcon.  Despite the fact that it claims to be able
  to run from any resolution, it must be run from ST medium! FZT is an easy to
  use  comms  program  with  3D push-in buttons and  lots  of  user  definable
  settings.  It emulates VT52,  UBBS Term Graphics, IBM Ansi Graphics, Instant
  Graphics and ASCII terminals.  Up to 45 BBS numbers can be entered into  the
  auto  dial directory and speeds of up to 19,200 bps  are  supported.  Zmodem
  batch,  Ymodem batch,  Ymodem G batch,  Xmodem and Ymodem transfer protocols
  are supported although you can call external protocols if required. LZH, ARC
  and  ZIP archivers can all be called up when running FZT in order to  create
  archives for uploading or extract files from downloaded archives. RGB ONLY.

  KIVI  QWK READER V2.03 - Almost all BBS messages nowadays are stored in  QWK
  format.  Kivi is an off-line QWK reader.  In other words,  you download your
  mail messages,  log off and load up Kivi.  It recognises the packing  method
  used,  unpacks your mail,  lets you read it, reply to it or compose new mail
  messages.  These  are  then packed and saved in the QWK format ready  to  be
  uploaded the next time you log on. Kivi can also unpack your replies just in
  case you decide to edit them.  It also allows you to extract mail items from
  the QWK packet in ASCII format. QWK readers are not uncommon, but what makes
  Kivi unique is the fact that it is Multi-TOS and SpeedoGDOS compatible  (and
  indeed enhanced for these systems).  Kivi has lots more options and lets you
  customise  everything to suit your own preferences and save  your  settings.
  One of the best QWK readers available.

  OASIS  (One Atari Solution to Internet Software) V1.35E by Phil  Yeadon  and
  Dave Levi - An impressive GEM based front end for accessing the Internet  on
  your  Atari.  With  the advent of cheap high speed modems and  local  access
  numbers,  getting connected to the Internet is seriously worth  considering.
  Until  recently,  Demon  Internet were the only service provider  to  supply
  Atari  software and what was available was command line driven and  archaiac
  to  say  the least!  Oasis replaces this with a friendly menu  based  system
  which  lets you log on and off with the minimum of  hassle.  Once  off-line,
  Oasis'  offline mailreader and newsreader allow you to browse  through  your
  email and your selected newgroups at your leisure.  As for sending out email
  or  posting messages to the newsgroups,  that couldn't be easier.  Oasis  as
  supplied,  is ready to run (just alter the setup files to suit) and includes
  an Atari specific guide to get you up and running.  The only thing you can't
  do is browse the World Wide Web,  but that's promised for v2.0.  Very highly
  recommended, needs a hard drive.

  SET_DEV7  by Mark Baines - Sets device 7 as the default serial port  on  the
  Falcon.  In serial communications the Falcon specifies device 6 (which isn't
  connected  to  any hardware port) as the default serial  port.  This  causes
  problems  with software which automatically uses the default device  without
  checking.

  XYZ MODEM 2 - A patched version of XYZ Modem v2.02B which uses Modem Port 2,
  so as to be compatible with the Falcon.

  POINT  - A text file describing the mechanisms by which FidoNet mail can  be
  accessed by pointing.  It describes how a point works, how to set one up and
  a list of recommended software.

  APOINTS.FAQ  -  A collection of frequently asked questions  about  an  Atari
  Point System.  It is intended to help answer questions about setting up  and
  maintaining a point system using an Atari computer.  It concentrates on  the
  Turbonet  T_POINTS but should apply equally well to running a  point  system
  for any mail network.

  STARCALL v2.0 - A completely integrated communications program.  It comes in
  three parts,  terminal emulator,  BBS and fax software. You just install the
  parts that you need. You can run your own bulletin board, dial in to on-line
  services and send/receive faxes, all from this integrated suite of programs.
  The terminal package emulates VT52, VT100, VT200, VT220 & ANSI terminals and
  the  Xmodem and Ymodem file transfer protocols are built-in.  There's a  log
  book which keeps track of your calls during the month, even costing them for
  you! Auto logons to your favourite BBS can be learnt on the fly and a system
  password can be used to prevent unauthorised access to your  system.  What's
  more,  if  you  have  a ZyXEL modem,  you can turn  your  computer  into  an
  automated voice mail system!  The fax module is very powerful,  allowing you
  to  add logos and signatures to 1st Word/Wordplus and  ASCII  documents.  It
  even lets you convert IMG files and Calamus documents into faxes.  Faxes can
  be sent at high resolution,  giving even better results than those  produced
  by  a fax machine.  You can even set up the software to queue up  faxes  and
  answer incoming calls. Shareware software at its very best. Starcall needs a
  hard drive.

  WWW  ACCESS PACK - A growing suite of Shareware and Freeware programs  (most
  of which have UK registration) by different authors which allows Atari users
  to  access  the  world wide web.  It runs in any resolution and  is  a  full
  graphic  browser,  unlike Lynx.  The official WWW package consists of  STiK,
  CAB, CAB.OVL, AntMail, Telnet, IRC, Cache_Ed, Weather Forecast, Finger and a
  specially written setup program to install everything in the correct  places
  on your hard drive and configured correctly for your own ISP.  You'll need a
  hard drive and at least 1 Mb of memory to run this package.  All are  multi-
  tasking  friendly and several of the component parts of this package can  be
  running  simultaneously under such a system.  They also run  reliably  under
  single TOS. Here's a description of what's what.

  STiK  v1.12 by Steve Adam (now being maintained by Dan Ackerman) -  Consists
  of  an  Auto folder patch and ACC and provides the necessary  network  layer
  through which everything else works.  It dials up your ISP,  logs you on and
  returns  control to the system so that you can run the appropriate  clients.
  Currently  STiK  (and  therefore this entire package)  only  works  if  your
  Internet Service Provider (ISP) supports the SLIP protocol.  PPP is not  yet
  supported.

  COOL  ATARI  BROWSER v1.5 by  Alexander Clauss (a modified version  of  HTML
  Browser  on  COM.5232) is your Netscape clone which allows you to  surf  the
  Web.  It  is now fully compliant with all HTML 2 commands and many from  the
  emerging  HTML  3  standard.  In  its current form it  offers  most  of  the
  functionality of Netscape but without the memory overhead!  You can  access,
  cache  and display the URLs either on-line of off-line and support for  JPEG
  images (as used by some sites on the Web) is also included. Pages are cached
  to  your hard drive and accessed from the hard drive the next time you  need
  them to save on-line time,  only downloading un-cached pages.  Obviously you
  can  also read pages off-line.  CAB can be configured for  English,  French,
  Spanish, Swedish, Italian or German.

  CAB.OVL  v1.2904  by  Tim Newsome (now maintained by Dan  Ackerman)  -  This
  provides  the on-line support for CAB.  It invisibly links CAB into STiK  to
  allow URLs to be accessed 'live' rather than merely loaded from disk.

  IRC v0.90 by Steve Adam (now being maintained by Lonny Pursell) - Allows you
  to  participate in Internet Relay Chat (IRC).  IRC is essentially a  way  of
  having  live 'chats' with lots of other computer users  on-line.  Everything
  happens  in real time and you can be 'talking' to several other  users  from
  all  over  the world simultaneously!  This latest version is GEM  based  and
  multi-tasking friendly.

  TELNET V1.0 by Jim Baumgardner - A Telnet client for use with  STiK.  Telnet
  allows  you to log on to a computer on the Internet in a similar fashion  to
  using a standard terminal emulator (such as Connect) to connect to a BBS and
  lets  you  wander  around the system's directories as if  it  were  directly
  connected  to  your own machine.  This lets you effectively  cross  hardware
  platforms, like using a virtual machine!

  FINGER  V1.30  by Lonny Pursell - A 'finger' client for use  with  STiK.  It
  allows  you to obtain information about email addresses.  Some servers  give
  little  information to the finger client,  others give  masses!  Useful  for
  finding  someone's email address,  getting a list of all users who  match  a
  certain specification or even to check if you have mail waiting for you.

  STiK  WEATHER FORECAST v0.3 by Jim Baumgardner and Dan Ackerman - When  used
  in conjunction with STiK it gives the temperature, barometer, wind speed and
  humidity (displayed both graphically and as text) for any major US city.  It
  even  remembers the city you last requested data for,  and uses it  as  your
  default setting.  Interestingly,  the authors are working on a system  which
  will extend coverage to the rest of the world.

  ANTMAIL  V0.79  by  Dan Ackerman - A POP3 mail client  for  use  with  STiK.
  Translated  into plain English,  it's an easy to use program  which  manages
  your email for you.  It supports multiple users, so several people using the
  same account.  For example,  [e-mail],  [e-mail]
  and  [e-mail] will all have separate mailboxes  when  using
  Antmail and incoming mail will be directed to the correct mailbox.  It  uses
  SMTP  to send mail and POP3 to retreive it.  More systems are converting  to
  POP3,  this could be a major feature.  The main benefit of POP3 is that  you
  'ask'  for  your  mail when you want to download it,  rather  than  have  it
  'thrown'  at you as soon as you log on (expensive at peak  calling  times!).
  Antmail  allows  messages to be written on-line (whiles away the  time  when
  you're  in  the middle of a big download!) or offline (saves on  the  'phone
  bill the rest of the time!). Please note that Antmail won't work unless your
  ISP supports the POP3 protocol (most do).

  WWW  INSTALLER  V1.00  by  Manfred Ssykor - An easy  to  use  program  which
  installs  everything in the right place on your hard  drive.  An  especially
  useful  feature  is its ability to update individual programs  in  the  pack
  without having to perform a full reinstallation.

  CHIMERA,  TELNET  &  FTP  RUNNING UNDER X-WINDOWS - This set  of  disks  has
  everything you need to turn your Falcon or TT into a pseudo UNIX workstation
  for  accessing  the Internet via the World Wide Web.  MiNTNet  provides  the
  necessary multi-tasking networking capabilities, the Minix file system gives
  you support for Unix commands and long filenames, and X-Windows is a port of
  the popular graphic user interface from Unix,  adapted to run in conjunction
  with MiNTNet and Minix.  These three vital elements provide the backbone for
  a Unix-like setup on your Falcon or TT. Also included is Chimera, a NetScape
  clone  which  allows graphical browsing of the much hyped  World  Wide  Web.
  Hooked into Chimera are separate Telnet and FTP programs which allow you  to
  log  in to remote computers and download archives from the various  Internet
  ftp  sites.  Setting  up  an  Atari to run the above  system  is  usually  a
  nightmare   but  has  been  simplified  by  easy  to   follow   installation
  instructions  and an automatic installation procedure by the  Toronto  Atari
  Federation (TAF).  It's certainly not Linux,  but it's the next best  thing!
  Please  note  that this package requires at least 4Mb of  memory,  a  10  Mb
  separate hard drive partition set up for Minix and of course an account with
  an Internet Service Provider who offers PPP. It should also be noted that it
  only runs in ST high resolution.

  ATARI ST BBS CALLBACK FACILITY V2.0 by Andy Inman - monitors the RS232  port
  for incoming calls. If detected, it drops the DTR, thus preventing the modem
  from  answering  the  call.  The  caller must then  re-dial  within  a  pre-
  determined  time in order to connect to your BBS.  The main purpose of  this
  utility is to allow BBS operators who share a common voice and data line, to

  CD-ACCESS V0.99B by Rich Tietjens - Allows you to hook in CD-ROM support  to
  any BBS running on your Atari so that users can download files from a CD-ROM
  attached to your system.

  LYNX,  IRC II & DuFTP FOR MiNTNet - Three applications for use with  MiNTNet
  which provide WWW browsing,  Internet Relay Chat and File Transfer  Protocol
  clients for Internet use.  Lynx is a World Wide Web browser, but in contrast
  to Chimera,  it is text based.  On the downside,  you lose out on all  those
  beautiful graphics,  one of the attractions of the Web. In its favour is the
  fact  that Lynx saves on your telephone bills since each page takes  only  a
  fraction  of the time to download.  Internet Relay Chat is a system  whereby
  users  from  across the globe can join in live on-line  sessions  with  each
  other,  and  all for no more than the cost of a local  telephone  call.  IRC
  tends to be addictive,  so watch that 'phone bill!  DuFTP is a nice friendly
  GEM  based file protocol manager which lets you log on to those  'anonymous'
  ftp sites and download the latest PD & Shareware releases.  Please note that
  these three applications require 4 Mb and a hard drive and can only be  used
  if MiNTNet (S-F.5455, S-F.5456 & S-F.5457) is installed on your system.

  MiNTNet FAQ v1.0 by  Christer Gustavsson - A short text file explaining  how
  to set up a working MiNTNet system with the minimum of fuss and bother.

  NOSFILES  - Example STARTUP.NOS,  DIAL.TXT and NNTP.DAT files for  use  with
  AtariNOS.  Also  includes several useful text files relating to the  use  of
  NOS,  including the setting up of an ftp users file and the use of the  nntp
  commands.

  SEMPER V0.79B by Jan Kriesten - A utility aimed at BBS sysops.  It lets  you
  poll  other  machines in the network so that you can transfer  mail  packets
  quickly  and efficiently as well as requesting files from (or sending  files
  to)  other  machines  on the network.  Semper can hook  into  your  own  BBS
  software and can operate via the serial,  LAN or MIDI ports at speeds of  up
  to  230400  bps  (hardware support  permitting).  It  also  supports  direct
  transfer over ISDN lines.  Request a 'key' from one of the support sites  to
  give full access to all features (including high speed Hydra transfers)  for
  a limited period, then register for unlimited access.

  FIRESTORM  HTML BROWSER V0.049 by Christian Andersson - An early version  of
  an on-line World Wide Web browser.  Unfortunately many functions are  either
  incomplete  or  disabled and it is only possible to  dial  a  pre-programmed
  Swedish number (from within Sweden). This browser appears to be pre-STiK and
  CAB  although it looks like it could have potential.  For non-Swedish  users
  its  only  real use is as an off-line HTML viewer and even then  it  doesn't
  cope with every page thrown at it.  GDOS or SpeedoGDOS must be installed  in
  order  to use this software.  Now with docs in ST-Guide (not  included)  and
  HTML formats.

  OASIS  2.10  by  Phil Yeadon and Dave Levi - The  ultimate  Internet  access
  package.  This  is the long awaited followup to Oasis on F.5292 and  it  now
  completely replaces AtariNOS with ICE,  its own GEM based on-line  software,
  making it the complete solution for both on-line and off-line use.  Like its
  predecessor,  Oasis 2 handles mail,  newsgroups, ftp and telnet sessions and
  comes complete with extensive docs in ST-Guide (not included)  format.  Both
  SLIP  and PPP protocols are handled correctly and posting to  newsgroups  is
  now possible with all ISPs.  Mail-wise,  you have the choice of using either
  SMTP  or POP 3 standards.  Automated logons for both anonymous and  password
  protected  ftp  access  are supported,  binary files  can  be  automatically
  uuencoded,  yellow  pages  and outmail have been improved and you  can  even
  perform  searches  in  these  databases.  Finally,  you  can  download  only
  newsgroup  headers  then  mark the articles you want to  download  in  full.
  Shareware at its best,  some functions are not fully operational but there's
  more  than  enough  to  get started  with.  Includes  simple  to  understand
  instructions on how to get HS Modem (included) set up for your  system.  The
  only  thing  you  can't do is access the  WWW  (yet!).  Includes  conversion
  utilities  for your Oasis 1.35 mail,  outmail,  yellow pages  and  newsgroup
  files. Needs a 4 Mb and a hard drive.

  CAB MINT v1.84 - A modified version of the CAB.OVL file which allows you  to
  use the WWW Access Pack (F.5420) when running MiNT/Multi-TOS.

  STiK  TIME  by  Guy Harrison.  Runs as an ACC or  PRG  (under  multi-tasking
  systems)  and appends details of connections via STiK,  to NOS.LOG  so  that
  CoSTa (on F.5569) can include them in your call logging.

  SBCABPRG  by  Guy  Harrison  - Install it as  an  external  viewer  for  CAB
  (F.5420).  It will then let you intercept files and save them to your chosen
  destination, rather than have them disappear namelessly into the cache!

  MUNPACK  V1.3  by Hans Streibel - Allows you to encode/decode  MIME  encoded
  messages  as used by many PC/Mac applications.  Only runs under  MiNT/Multi-
  TOS.

  COMA.SYS  - Installs a SpeedoGDOS fax driver.  This allows you to  output  a
  page  from any SpeedoGDOS compatible application,  as a COMA/QFAX fax  which
  can then be output via a fax modem using COMA on F.5071.

  SHADOWRUN  MATRIX  CREATOR  v1.32  by Brian Duff  -  A  computer  controlled
  GamesMaster for use with the on-line Shadowrun role-playing game.

  MASTIC by Walu Software - The latest generation TIC processor which is fully
  compliant with the latest FTSC standard.  It is used for automating tasks on
  bulletin boards.  If you don't know what a TIC processor is,  you don't need
  one!

  COSTA  V1.50  by  Gary Priest - Reads details of your  Internet  calls  from
  NOS.LOG and works out the total length of time spent on-line and the cost of
  the calls.  You can customise the call charges and charging rates to reflect
  those appropriate to where you dial for your Internet access. It knows about
  time zones, standard, cheap rate and weekend call tariffs as well as minimum
  call charges.  It even includes the VAT! What's more, you can clear all data
  when you pay the bill so that remaining data is valid for the next bill.

  MODEM  CONFIG  V0.1B  by Xavier Lucroze - Gives information  on  the  speed,
  serial number and country code of your modem.

  AVALON  V3.76 by Stephan Slabihoud - An alternative to Tiny-Shell.  It is  a
  GEM based shell for points in a FidoNet or compatible system.  It is of  use
  to  individuals who have their own point setup and also to BBS sysops as  it
  allows  them to automate many routine tasks such as generating  user  lists,
  performing unattended polling, file requests, setting up a msgbase, hatching
  files,  converting pointlists and odelists in uselists etc. Please note that
  you  will also need a mailer program (Binkley Term or Semper),  an  importer
  (Legada or JetMail) and a message editor (LED).

  MG-FTP  V1.03 by Michael Guse - An ftp client for use with STiK.  It  allows
  you  to log onto an ftp server and up/download files.  MG-FTP supports  both
  anonymous  and  password protected logons.  The directories  on  the  remote
  machine are displayed in a window and almost everything is mouse controlled.
  In fact you can even save your favourite sites in a hotlist so that a simple
  selection from the list logs you straight on to the server. Please note that
  Weather  Forecast  and  MG-FTP will not work unless STiK  is  installed  and
  enabled.   Also,   both  run  under  either  single  TOS  or   multi-tasking
  environments.  You  will of course need an account with an Internet  Service
  Provider!

  NOS  POP3  -  A modified version of AtariNOS which supports  the  POP3  mail
  protocol  rather than the more common SMTP.  Use this as a  replacement  for
  NOS.TTP when using Oasis v1.35 (on F.5292) if your ISP uses POP3.  You  MUST
  use this version of NOS if your ISP is Pavillion as they only support  POP3,
  most others support both standards.

  PPP  KIT V1.4 by Philippe Abel - Allows you to use CAB (WWW Browser) with  a
  service  provider  who  supports  the PPP  protocol  rather  than  SLIP  (as
  supported  by  STiK).  It  requires CAB (F.5420) and HS  Modem  (F.4365)  in
  addition to the files supplied.  Unlike other MintNet applications,  you  do
  not need to format a separate Minix partition.  The kit  includes a cut down
  version  of MintNet,  MintNet compatible CAB.OVL as well as all the  MintNet
  setup  files required and detailed instructions on how to get the system  up
  and  running  in both English and French.  All you have to do  is  edit  the
  configuration files to suit your ISP. Needs 4 Mb and a hard drive.

  AFTP  V1.4B1  by  J & T Krivankove - A GEM based ftp  client  for  use  with
  MintNet  (F.5569).  Put  simply,  it lets you connect to ftp  sites  on  the
  Internet to up/download files. This version has lots of extras including the
  ability to receive commands from a CLI (or CAB), a hotlist of your favourite
  sites,  drag  and  drop  between  local and remote drives  and  the  use  of
  different fonts. It requires MintNet and an AV aware Desktop (Thing, Gemini,
  NeoDesk 4, Ease etc).

  ANTGNVAX - Replacement RSCs for AntMail (from the WWW Access Pack on F.5420)
  so that the display looks correct under the Geneva multi-tasking OS.  Unless
  you have Geneva, you'll see no difference by using these!

  BACKPLAY by Gary Priest - Allows you to listen to all those sound samples on
  the  Web.  It  works  in conjunction with NED  PLAYER  and  (unlike  similar
  programs)  plays  the sound without opening a windows and  therefore  avoids
  mucking  up  CAB.  It simply works by passing the filename from CAB  to  NED
  PLAYER.  BACKPLAY requires a multi-tasking OS such as MagiC or Multi-TOS and
  of course you'll need NED PLAYER too.

  CACHE ED V0.5 by Manfred Ssykor - A support program for use with the Crystal
  Atari Browser.  When on-line with CAB,  all pages (and associated  graphics)
  are saved to the cache directory under less than helpful names. This utility
  identifies  the  pages/graphics by name and lets you copy  them  to  another
  location of your choice. Invaluable if you use CAB.

  FRAC IRC V1.10 by Tim Putnam - A GEM based IRC client for use with STiK.  It
  lets  you  connect to the real-time on-line chat service which runs  on  the
  Internet.  In fact #atari is a lively place to be!  It lets you set up  your
  entire configuration using a series of menus rather than the ancient  script
  files.  Up to 10 (IRC or DCC) channels can be accessed at any timeJust about
  everything  can be customised and you can even send files directly from  one
  user to another via DCC transfers. Needs STiK on F.5420.

  XURL  V2.40  - Extracts all URL references from the selected text  file  and
  places them into an HTML document. Its main use is to extract URLs from your
  mail  or news files created by Oasis and place then in an HTML file so  that
  they can be clicked from within CAB to take you directly to the URL  without
  the need to retype. Obviously CAB is needed in order to make use of XURL.

  QWKBAK V0.1 by Simon Coward - Creates backups of QWK format (as used on most
  bulletin  boards) incoming and outgoing mail and saves them as dated  files.
  This  prevents  the old QWK files being overwritten every time you  log  on.
  Invaluable  if you need to backtrack to find out what someone said in  their
  last message or what you replied!  Use in conjunction with Kivi (F.5232)  or
  similar.

  JPEG.OVL by Dieter Fiebelkorn - This module (for use with CAB) allows you to
  use  Brainstorm's  JPEG  decoder  (included on disk)  to  decode  JPG  files
  contained within HTML files. A JPG typically loads 10 times faster with this
  module installed.

  SDUU  by Guy Harrison - Simply drop and archive or uuencoded file onto  this
  program  and  it will automatically work out whether or not  it  is  already
  uuencoded and  uu(de/en)code it as required.

  WENSUITE V2.40b by OXO Concept - At last,  an alternative to the CAB browser
  (not that there's anything wrong with CAB!). This version looks very similar
  to CAB is fully HTML compliant and directly compatible with NetScape 2. This
  demo  version  is  a complete implementation of the package  with  the  only
  restriction being that it is restricted to viewing pages off-line.  The full
  version is available direct from 16/32 Systems.

  HELL'S BBS V0.84 - A Falcon specific BBS.  It is fully ANSI/VT102  compliant
  and supports the English,  French and German languages.  Everything you need
  to run your own BBS except for a text editor (almost any can be used) and an
  external  file  transfer protocol (GSZZRZ  on  F.4454  recommended).  Almost
  everything can be customised to suit via the configuration files.  Docs  are
  almost non-existent but program looks very capable.

  WEBSPINNER  V1.10 by Simon Coward - The first Web authoring tool  for  Atari
  computers.  It  lets you compose HTML pages,  set the background colour  (or
  import a background image),  create tables and lists (numbered or  bulleted)
  easily,  position  images  and imported text in your  document,  apply  text
  attributes to individual words or entire paragraphs and much  more.  Cutting
  and  pasting  is supported via the GEM  Clipboard.  Other  features  include
  support  for headings,  page titles,  line breaks,  anchors and links  (both
  internal  and external.  This Shareware release lets you generate  the  bare
  HTML  code  from simple mouse clicks but does not let you  save  your  work.
  Registered users can view the end results in CAB for a WYSIWYG display. Best
  used  on  a  display with at least 16 colours at 640x400 or  better  (TT  or
  Falcon) but ST low res is also supported.  Webspinner can also be used as an
  HTML viewer from within CAB.  Separate versions for the ST and TT (or Falcon
  with FPU).

  HTML  HELP v1.1 by Matthias Japp - A useful utility to aid those  developing
  Web pages.  It lets you view the HTML source and change filenames and paths.
  You can also convert HTML into ASCII (removing tags automatically) and  vice
  versa or convert control codes to/from Atari/Mac/PC standards.  Page  title,
  background colour,  background image,  text colour and colour for links  can
  also be altered to suit.  The Info option lists all links from the page  and
  images attached to it.  HTML HELP can also specify your desired Web  browser
  and text editor allowing WYSIWYG display and full editing if required.  This
  is  not a Web page authoring tool like WebSpinner,  it's more of  a  helping
  hand  for  those  wishing to tinker with existing  pages.  Program  in  both
  English and German.

  HOMEPAGE  PENGUIN  V1.7  by  Matthias Japp  -  An  excellent  program  which
  generates  a  basic HTML homepage.  Give it a  title,  select  a  background
  colour/image,  import some text, fill in a few details and save the results.
  It's as simple as that, follow the prompts without any knowledge of HTML and
  you've  got  a nicely presented page.  It is then possible to spruce  it  up
  manually.  Program in both English and German. Needs to be run in 640x400 or
  better so ST high res only (although the page itself can be in colour).

  EXPIRE  -  Useful  program which lets you expire all emails  in  your  Oasis
  OUTMAIL.TXT except for the number specify that you wish to retain eg; expire
  all except the 100 most recent entries.

  MR  POINTY  V1.26 by Rob Cooper & Darren Hook - A nice easy to  use  program
  ideally suited to BBS sysops but equally useful for those individuals set up
  as a point (or node) on a BBS network such as NeST,  FidoNet or TurboNet. It
  handles file echoes and mail echoes as well as managing nodelists. Mr Pointy
  brings  simplicity  to  an area of comms normally avoided  by  all  but  the
  hardened enthusiast.

  CAB 030 - A version of CAB specially optimised for the TT and  Falcon.  This
  is  a replacement PRG for the 68000 based one on F.5420,  NOT  a  standalone
  program.  It  does not include the RSCs,  docs,  HTMLS and  other  necessary
  files.

  ANSI  EDIT  by  Teddy - ANSI driver and editor.  Useful for  making  up  BBS
  screens.  Programs and docs in German but we've done a RUF translation.  VGA
  ONLY.

  ALTA  LISTA V1.5 by Mathias Jaap - An excellent multi-purpose tool  designed
  for use with the CAB (F.5420) or Webspace (F.5886) WWW browsers. It lets you
  create  html  files  which list all html files  in  a  specified  directory.
  Clicking  onto  the  entry  in  the list  loads  up  the  appropriate  html,
  regardless  of  its  location on your drive.  Alta Lista  can  also  produce
  thumbnail  catalogues of all IMG,  PNG,  GIF or JPG images from a  specified
  directory.  In such cases,  the image name and size is displayed beneath the
  thumbnail.  With  image catalogues you also have a link to a list  of  image
  names  and clicking onto these loads the image at full size.  An  invaluable
  aid  for  keeping  track  of your downloaded html files  or  even  just  for
  cataloguing the images on your hard drive.

  STUFIT  V16/3/94 by Steve Caple - A Usenet to Fidonet interface.  It  allows
  emails from Fidonet BBSs to be sent to the Internet (via a UUCP account) and
  vice  versa.  It works for both personal emails and newgroup  postings.  You
  need  to have a UUCP account and a Fidonet address so its not offering  free
  Net  access.  What  it  does offer is the ability to  access  your  Internet
  messages from your local BBS or BBS messages from your Internet account  and
  reply from either account for convenience.  You will also require  COMPRESS,
  JETMAIL, LED and of course UUCP software in order to use Stufit.

  JOE  V1.35 by Rajah Lone - A Web page design package similar to  WebSpinner.
  It lets you type text directly onto a blank page or click onto the  required
  tags from drop down menus.  An existing html file can be imported or you can
  start from scratch.  The various tags are all grouped under logical headings
  so  it's  just a case of selecting the appropriate tag,  then  entering  the
  required text between the start and end tag.  OK,  so you need to know which
  tags to use but Joe eliminates those all too often syntax errors encountered
  by those new to html. Finally, Joe links into CAB (or WebSpace) to provide a
  WYSIWYG  environment if running on a multi-tasking  OS.  Unfortunately  both
  program  and docs are in French but the fact that html tags are the same  in
  any  language  still makes this an invaluable tool.  Would  anyone  like  to
  translate?

  VT102 TELNET V2.00 by Prof Boris Cahan - A VT102 compliant Telnet client for
  use  with STiK and GlueSTiK.  Telnet is a method by which you can log in  to
  and communicate with remote computers on the Internet.  This program's  main
  claim to fame is in offering VT102 emulation rather than the more usual VT52
  as included in Jim Baumgardner's Telnet program. You have an almost complete
  VT102  emulation  with  the exception of blinking  characters  and  Tek  404
  emulation  (which are not supported).  This is a multi-tasking friendly  GEM
  program,  making it very easy to get to grips with.  It can also be used  as
  the default Telnet program within CAB.  Terminal size and point size can  be
  configured  to suit.  The program uses its own fonts in order to create  the
  necessary VT102 characters.  The only restriction this places on you is that
  you  must have (Speedo)GDOS or NVDI loaded,  otherwise the program will  not
  run.

  CAB  2  DEMO  by Application Systems Heidelberg -  The  standard  Atari  WWW
  browser  just  got better.  Version 2 and above are no longer  Freeware  but
  available  at low cost from System Solutions.  This latest version  supports
  the  use of frames and forms,  has a revamped interface and is  near  enough
  completely HTML 3 compliant.  Supplied with English, German, French, Italian
  and Swedish RSCs and docs in German, Italian, Spanish, Swedish and Croatian.
  Operates identically to v1.5 (F.5420) so the English docs from that  version
  can be used.  This version is fully functional except that BubbleGEM help is
  disabled as is the Hotlist and there's a 30 second delay when starting  (and
  quitting) the program). If you want to use it on-line you'll need to install
  CAB.OVL on F.5420 and either STiK (on F.5420) or STiNG (on this disk).

  KA9Q HELP - A collection of Help files explaining every command supported by
  KA9Q as used in AtariNOS and Oasis 1.35.  I'm sure they can be configured to
  be  called up from within NOS but can't quite work out  how!  An  invaluable
  source of documentation on NOS commands, regardless.

  STING  V1.15  by Peter Rottengatter - A major new package  which  completely
  replaces the STiK component of the WWW Access Pack.  It features an improved
  (completely) rewritten version of STiK incorporating new features  developed
  by  many  different authors over the past couple of years.  In  addition  to
  linking CAB,  Antmail, MGFTP, FracIRC, Newsie and the likes to the Internet,
  STiNG (ST Internet Next Generation) offers more.  It supports SLIP and CSLIP
  connection  to  the  Net  with  PPP  under  development.   Standard   serial
  communication  is  handled as is communication over the  Midi  and  Parallel
  (currently  in  development) ports.  Ethernet (several  commercial  and  DIY
  Ethernet cards are available in Germany) and LAN are also under development.
  Once  in place,  these features will allow STiNG to work as a simple to  use
  system  for  networking between Atari computers as well as  connecting  your
  machine to the Internet.  The package includes several CPX modules  allowing
  for  easy configuration 'on the fly' as well as a  programmers'  development
  kit and a fair amount of well written docs. STiNG is modular and expected to
  evolve into a major package in its own right. Although it is not 'finished',
  the Internet connectivity is. Highly recommended.

  CHECK_M  v1.0  by  Kellis  - Checks to see if  you  have  mail  at  selected
  intervals (from 2 to 120 minutes) when you are on-line.  You can then  check
  the  first  10 lines of any selected message and decide whether  or  not  to
  download that message. Check_M is for Internet use (alongside STiK) and only
  works  if  you  have a POP3 account.  You must have the  STENO  text  editor
  installed  if  running  under TOS,  any text editor can be  used  if  multi-
  tasking. Needs at least 1 Mb.

  COMPOTEL V1.E by Francis Pierson - A handy PRG or ACC for maintaining  lists
  of  telephone  numbers.  Any number of telephone numbers may be  stored  and
  dialed  directly by selecting them from the list.  There is also  a  dialpad
  which  can be used manually to initiate voice or data calls via your  modem.
  When running on a Falcon, the dialing tones can be heard via the speaker, on
  an ST they are just output directly to the modem.  Unfortunately program and
  docs are in French, but the program is easily understood.

  POPWATCH V2.42 by Gary Priest - Very similar to CHECK_M (above).  It is also
  for  Internet use and requires that you have POP3 mail.  It lets  you  check
  your  mail without actually running your mailer software (eg;  you could  be
  browsing  the Web with CAB).  You can download selected items or  even  read
  portions  of a message then decide whether or not to download  it.  Messages
  may be removed or left on the server. Downloaded messages are converted into
  the correct format for Oasis 1.xx, Oasis 2 or Newsie as appropriate. You can
  even  set  up a KILL file to automatically delete junk mail  from  specified
  addresses.

  PURGE  V1.2  by Phil Hough - For use with Oasis 1.35 and NOS,  it  lets  you
  automatically  remove  specified  newsgroup articles.  You  can  filter  out
  articles  whose  subject  line  matches your  config  settings  (eg:  FS  to
  eliminate  for sale adverts) or articles by individuals whose email  address
  matches your specifications.  An ideal way to weed out junk.

  AUTO  DIALER V2 by JFA Software - Place it in your Auto folder and  it  will
  give  you the option of logging onto the Net using STiK as soon as you  boot
  up.  Otherwise  you  can run it from the Desktop to dial  your  ISP  without
  having to select the STiK ACC from the Desk menu.

  GIFMERGE  V1.34 by Guido Flohr - Lets you create GIF animations as  used  on
  the Web. Specify the directory containing the images and set the appropriate
  parameters. You can set transparency, animation speed, offset and whether or
  not the animation should loop.

  HTML TEXT CONVERTER V1.5 by Stephane Perez - Converts an ordinary ASCII file
  into  HTML  format  by adding the  appropriate  headers  and  line/paragraph
  breaks.  Obviously you'll still want to jazz it up but this program  handles
  the more mundane tasks.  In addition,  it translates ASCII characters  above
  128 into their html equivalents, essential for our European friends. Program
  and docs in English and French.

  MURKS  V1.05  by  Christian  Lehmann - Removes  all  unnecessary  text  from
  uuencoded  files,  leaving only the coded part.  Extra text  (eg;  messages)
  attached  to  the uuencoded files often  confuses  uudecode  programs.  This
  program eliminates the problem.

  NET2CAB  V1.02  by  Mark Hammond - Converts bookmarks  created  by  Netscape
  Navigator  (on PC or Mac) into the correct format for use in CAB v1.5's  (or
  above) hotlist.

  PROBE HOUSE DIALER V1.4 by William Wong - An ACC based modem dialer. It lets
  you  store  up to 500 telephone numbers which can be  easily  accessed  from
  within any GEM based program.  You can use it to make telephone calls (using
  the  modem  to do the dialing) or to maintain a list of your  favourite  BBS
  numbers. Up to 25 characters can be used as a description for the number and
  the  program works with all Hayes compatible modems.  A search  function  is
  included,  you  can set the baud rate for each entry and any dialing  errors
  are reported.

  TABI v1.5 by Matthias Jaap  - Lets  you  create tables for use in html files
  from ASCII tables which use commas, semi-colons or tabulators as separators.
  The easiest way is to create your table in  a spreadsheet. You can of course
  change  the text colour,  background colour,  font size and  cell  alignment
  within  the table.  All this is done without requiring a knowledge of  html!
  Program  and  docs  in English and German.

  DNSCACHE  V1.0  by  Gen & Wax - Eliminates  the  dreaded  "resolving  hosts"
  message from CAB. If a host's address has already been resolved in the cache
  database, this need not be done again and this step is bypassed, thus saving
  time and money. Works with CAB, Newsie and any other program which makes its
  connection to the Internet via STiK.

  T-MAIL SERIES 3 by Ben van Bokkem - A complete  E-Mail/F-Mail/EchoMail/QMail
  replacement system for use with Turbo Board and QBBS systems,  although most
  functions also operate on other systems. It checks the user's data files for
  handles and priviledge flags and handles automatic deletion of messages  and
  files at logoff, gating to other networks and so forth. There is support for
  up to 10 sigs,  each of which can have from 20 to 80 echo bases.  Lots  more
  features (too many to describe here). Extensively documented.

  STANFORD  GRAPHICS  - A collection of over 350 GIF images  which  have  been
  designed specifically for use on Web pages.  Quality varies but the best  of
  these  are  of  a very high standard and will add a bit  of  sparkle  to  an
  otherwise dull Web page.

  CAB-FTP  V0.3  by  Manfred Ssykor - An FTP client (allows  you  to  download
  programs  and files from Internet sites) for use within CAB.  Install it  as
  the default application for ftp and CAB-FTP will be called in every time you
  try to access a URL beginning ftp:// rather than http://. This makes it much
  simpler than having to use a separate ftp program.  CAB-FTP can of course be
  run  as  a  separate application alongside STiK,  independently  of  CAB  if
  required.

  DIALER V0.85 by Peter Rottengatter - A replacement dialer (the ACC part) for
  STiK v1.11 or later.  The advantages over STiK's dialer include support  for
  up  to  8  phone numbers and up to 5 file  servers,  an  abort  option,  the
  amalgamation of the two config files, better multi-tasking compatibility and
  a flashier interface. This was the forerunner to STiNG and it ideally suited
  to  those  wanting  an  improved version of STiK  without  the  "trauma"  of
  upgrading to STiNG.

  NEWSWATCH  V2.00  by Gary Priest - Lets assume you use Oasis  for  newsgroup
  access and CAB for WWW browsing. They use different methods of connecting to
  your  ISP and therefore necessitate two calls.  This program allows  you  to
  send and receive Usenet news articles via Oasis 1.3x, Snews or Oasis 2 using
  STiK  rather  than  NOS or ICE.  In effect it means that you  can  send  and
  receive  news articles during a session with STiK without having to  log  on
  again with Oasis. You still create the messages in Oasis and read downloaded
  messages  in Oasis,  it's just that you don't need to make a second call  in
  order to your ISP in order to send/receive the news articles.

  NEWSIE V0.88 by John Rojewski - Primarily a Usenet News client for use  with
  STiK,  although  it can also handle the sending (by SMTP) and receiving  (by
  POP3)  of email.  It lets you select your favourite newsgroups and read  new
  articles  on or off-line.  You can also post new articles to  newsgroups  or
  followups  to  existing  articles.  This latest version  extends  its  email
  capabilities  with  support  for binary attachments  in  uuencoded  or  MIME
  encoded  formats.  Multiple  mail boxes are supported as is the  ability  to
  transfer messages between mailboxes.  Newsie also handles FTP,  allowing you
  to  download software directly from the 'Net.  Newsie only works if STiK  is
  installed.

  GLUESTIK  V0.03B2  by Scott Bingham - A modified version  of  STiK  (F.5420)
  which  is designed for use with MiNTNet (F.5828).  It consists of  a  device
  driver  and  a  number of support utilities.  Docs are sparse  and  you  are
  expected  to have a working knowledge of both MiNTNet and  the  conventional
  STiK package.  Might also work with MiNT but I'm not sure.  Includes full  C
  sources.

  FIRST HTML V1.00 by Yannick Lecaillez -Converts ASCII text to HTML and  HTML
  to ASCII.  Nicely presented using Christophe Boyanique's Easy GEM interface.
  It  can  handle batch conversions using the * and ?  wildcards  as  well  as
  converting  single files.  Docs are in French but this is no problem as  the
  program is obvious in use. Just remember to specify the extension as well as
  the  pathname for converted files,  otherwise the  program  exits!

  DRACONIS  INTERNET  CONNECTION  PACKAGE V04/98 by J Heitmann  -  A  complete
  connectivity  suite,  offering a real challenge to the sacred land ruled  by
  CAB  and  WenSuite.  It  consists of the The Light of  ADAMAS  Web  Browser,
  Marathon Mail and the basic configuration,  connection and dialer utilities.
  It does not currently include a news reader.  DICP does not require StiK  or
  STiNG,  it uses its own PPP networking layer.  At a glance,  the mail client
  supports  multiple mailboxes,  accounts with multiple  ISPs,  multiple  mail
  folders  (useful  for filing messages you wish to retain,  the  sending  and
  receiving of binary attachments and a few other extras. The browser supports
  extensive cache management, security features, off-line and on-line browsing
  and a hotlist for keeping track of your favourite URLs.  There's even a hint
  of  Java support in a future version.  Both the mailer and the browser  draw
  heavily  from ideas seen on older versions of Microsoft's Internet  Explorer
  and  Internet Mail & News packages on other platforms.  DICP is Freeware  in
  its current state (this is a beta release) but the final version could  well
  go commercial if proposed features live up to their promise.  The package is
  supplied with English and German RSC files but comes with no  documentation.
  Theoretically you just need to install it and input your personal details to
  get up and running. Hard drive recommended but not essential.

  APACHE V1.2.5 by Jan P Schmidt - Have you ever wanted to use your Atari as a
  server  on  the  WWW or as an Intranet server  for  your  company?  Look  no
  further,  Apache is all you will ever need in order to achieve this (as well
  as a high speed modem and an account with an ISP of course!). It is based on
  NCSA's  HTTPD  Web server software which was the most commonly  used  server
  software  prior  to  Apache's release.  Apache now leads  the  pack.  It  is
  distributed as Freeware and this is the Atari version.  Apache comes with an
  extensive user manual (in HTML format of course) but is not recommended  for
  beginners.  Now for the catches....  You will need at least 4Mb of memory, a
  minimum  screen  resolution of 640x400 (ST high unless you have  a  graphics
  card)  and  masses of hard drive space to use as server space.  It  is  also
  desirable to have a permanent connection to the Net,  otherwise your  server
  will be inaccessible to other users except when you are on-line.  The way to
  get  round this is of course to have your main Web page on a permanent  site
  with  a  link to your home/work machine and state it will only  function  at
  certain times.  Some users are already employing this method. One last snag,
  you  must  be running MiNT or MiNTNet as Apache does not run  under  TOS  or
  MagiC.

  MYMAIL v0.61b by Erik Hall - One of the most highly polished mailer programs
  ever  written  on an Atari.  It is very graphically oriented  with  animated
  colour icons,  but it's not all gloss, it's a highly capable program. Mymail
  uses either STiK (F.5420) or STiNG (F.6038) to connect to the outside world,
  so  it  is  essential  to have one or other  installed  before  running  the
  program. Features include the ability to check the subject line and sender's
  name  before  downloading mail (also lets you delete unwanted  mail  without
  downloading it),  send and receive uuencoded and Base64 encoded  attachments
  without the use of external programs,  check the server for new messages  at
  preset intervals when on-line, maintain mailing lists allowing you to send a
  single message to multiple recipients, option to automatically add signature
  file to all messages, and a whole lot more. Mymail includes all the features
  of Oasis,  Newsie,  Antmail and the likes along with a handful of invaluable
  extras, all dressed up in the most eye-grabbing interface you're ever likely
  to  see.  It  supports  OLGA and BubbleGEM (both  on  UTL.6070),  AV  server
  messages and Multi-TOS's drag and drop protocol.  All docs in HTML format so
  you'll  need a copy of CAB (F.5420) in order to read them.  Here's the  down
  side, Mymail needs to run on an AES supporting animated colour icons (N.AES,
  MagiC, Multi-TOS or TOS 4.xx) and realistically needs a hard drive.

  SDURL  by Swampdog - Extracts all URL and other user-definable links from  a
  text  file or html and outputs them to an html ready for use  in  CAB.  More
  links  can be added to the html file at any time as your original file  will
  not  be  over-written,  merely  merged  with  the  new  data  and  re-sorted
  alphabetically.

  CORETOOLS  by Peter Rottengatter - A collection of five small  programs  for
  use with Peter's STiNG Internet connection package. PING - Lets you bounce a
  signal  to any IP address and wait for it to come back.  Its main use is  to
  check  connectivity.  It  lets you confirm if the selected host  machine  is
  connected and running, if so it reports how long a message takes to reach it
  and  return  to your machine.  SAVE_IP - Nowadays most ISPs assign  your  IP
  address  dynamically (i.e.  you get a different address  randomly  allocated
  each  time you log on.  This program saves that address in a  log  file.  If
  running  a  SLIP connection and your computer crashes,  reset  the  computer
  (without  switching off the modem) then use the saved IP address  to  resume
  your on-line session without having to redial. Invaluable if your ISPs lines
  are  busy and difficult to connect to.  TRACEROUTE - When messages are  sent
  over  the Net,  they hop from one machine to the next until the  destination
  machine is reached. This program reports back the IP numbers of all machines
  you message has passed through on route to its destination.  SYSINFO - Gives
  detailed information such as version number,  error stats,  compile date and
  much  more,  for  STiNG and all currently loaded  modules.  Invaluable  when
  trying to debug crashes and such like.  SHUTDOWN - In some cases, especially
  when using older comms software,  STiNG causes the system to crash when  you
  reset the computer.  This program removes STiNG from all system vectors  and
  the  Cookie Jar so as to fix the problem.  Can be run from the  Desktop.  If
  running  MagiC,  simply put it into the STOP directory to have it  run  each
  time you shut down Magic.

  DIP  EDIT  V0.6 by Dan Ackerman - Lets you create dial up scripts  for  your
  ISP.  Essentially what it does is take you through a nice friendly  question
  and answer session dressed up in a GEM interface, where it ensures you enter
  the  data given to you by your ISP into the correct places in your  dial  up
  script.  DIP  EDIT is intended for use setting up MiNTNet (S-COM.5829  &  S-
  COM.5830) though the scripts it creates could easily be adapted for use with
  STiK and other packages.  A useful tool for beginners struggling to get onto
  the Net.

  HOMEPAGE  PENGUIN  PRO V2.08 by Matthias Jaap - This program is one  of  the
  most well designed (and useful!) I've seen in a long time.  It's a  followup
  to Homepage Penguin on COM.5899. No longer Shareware, this is a demo version
  of a commercial release. HPP Pro lets you create rather astounding Web pages
  without the need to see a single HTML command. It sounds rather far fetched,
  but  it's true.  Like its predecessor,  it lets you turn ASCII text  and  an
  image  of  your choice into a nicely presented page,  but that's  where  the
  similarity ends. This version can be run in colour as well as mono, supports
  background images,  multiple frames, sound, different fonts, text alignment,
  two column text,  simple selection of text/background colours,  re-sizing of
  images  and lots more.  It even supports a number of features not  currently
  handled  by  today's Atari Web browsers!  Other features  include  real-time
  previews within CAB and support for plug-ins. If you want to learn HTML, you
  can  optionally have HPP Pro insert comments into your file  explaining  the
  use of the commands!  Docs in ST-Guide (UTL.5557) format.  This demo version
  has  the Navigator (gives you almost complete freedom in the design of  your
  page),  OLGA support,  BubbleGEM support and lots of other advanced features
  disabled. This version does let you save your pages and is therefore a great
  tool  for  experimentation.  When you get the urge to "do  more",  the  full
  version  can  be  purchased from FaST Club in  the  UK.

  FIRENEWS V0.76 by Christian Andersson - Another news reader program designed
  to  take the pain out of ploughing through all those Usenet  newsgroups.  It
  works with STiK or STiNG and provides a slick modern GEM interface. Firenews
  is  under  constant  development (not all functions are  completed  in  this
  version)  along  with its companion program,  Babel.  Almost  everything  in
  Firenews  is  user  configurable,  making it one of the  best  news  readers
  around.  Several features (which are already completed) are disabled in this
  version.  These will be enabled when you register and registration is  free!
  Firenews  also  interfaces  with AntMail or Newsie  to  handle  your  email,
  providing a total solution for email and newsgroup access.
