  BBS.01  STARNET BBS - A very flexible program which allows you to  customise
  the  system  to  your own needs.  Twenty  Sigs are  allowed  along  with  20
  upload/download areas.  The system can be configured to allow users to  play
  games on-line if desired.  Includes Star Term,a communications program which
  can be called up via Starnet.  Has been configured to run Humber Bridge  BBS
  and  only needs name of board,  welcome screen etc changed to  suit.

  BBS.02   CITADEL  v3.0  -  A  complete  bulletin  board  system.  This  like
  Starnet,  is a very powerful system.  However,  it needs to be set up by the
  user.  Menus   will have to be set up as ASCII files where appropriate.

  BBS.03  MERCURY - Everything you need to run  your  own BBS,  except a  hard
  drive and a modem of course!  Everything is configured to run from Drive D.
  Edit the Config.Sys file to suit.

  BBS.04   PANDORA - A fully user configurable suite of programs  intended  to
  let you design and run your own BBS.  Very comprehensive and compatible with
  the popular Fido Net format.  THE BOX - A stand alone mail handling  utility
  which  can  be  used with Pandora.  If required,  The Box  can  act  as  the
  permanent front end of your BBS.  Once again Fido Net compatible.

  COM.07   STTALK  - VT52 emulator which includes  file  transfer.  ADDRESS  -
  Simple  telephone book database.  It will print data to a serial printer  or
  dial telephone.  KERMIT - ASCII file transfer utility.  SQUEEZE/ UNSQUEEZE -
  Compress and decompress files, the parameters required are the  names of the
  files that you want to squeeze, unsqueeze. STCOMM - C source code for simple
  terminal emulation.  STTERMV10,  STTERMV30 - VT52 emulators.   XMODEM - file
  transfer  utility with inbuilt error checking.  UNDECODE -  Undecodes  files

  interaction  and  receive  in  the  same   manner.  STERM,  STERM3,  STTERM,
  STTERM2  - These  are  different  versions  of a VT52 emulator by  Jez  San.
  STTALK -VT52  emulator.   STXMODEM - VT52 emulator. VT100E - VT100 emulator.
  TERM - ASCII  transfer utility.

  COM.08  PACK-ET-TERM V3.3 & 3.3A - This is a complete communications program
  for  Amateur  Radio Enthusiasts and comes  with full user  manual  on  disk.
  WORLI MAILBOX and PACK-ET-TERM v4.5. This is a communications package  which
  also functions as a Bulletin Board. There is a full 150K manual on disk.

  COM.09  FRENCH  BBS DEMO - Documentation now translated into English. KERMIT
  - The GEM version of this file transfer utility by Berlin University. TERM -
  ASCII transfer utility.  STXMODEM - VT52 emulator (includes help files etc).
  DTE - Dumb terminal  emulator.   STTERM2 - VT52 emulator.    UNITERM V2.0E -
  VT102  emulator  by  Simon  Poole.  This  version  offers  all  features  of
  commercial  packages except a telephone book and a viewdata emulation  mode.
  It may be the only comms package that you ever need. Extensive documentation
  on disk.

  COM.13   VANTERM  v4.0  -  A GEM based  communications  package  written  by
  Vanguard  Datasystems.  Supports XModem,  YModem and ASCII  transfer.  Comes
  complete  with  numerous  disk utilities.  This program is Shareware but  in
  many   ways better than commercial products at ten times the price.  It will
  not   support Viewdata or split baud rates like 1200/75. You can run the V23
  emulator which is included to allow 1200/75 transmission. Surely the easiest
  and best program for going on the bulletin boards.  Full on-screen help  can
  be    called  up  if  needed.  As good as Uniterm  (COM.09)  but  more  user
  friendly.    Highly recommended.  Please note that you cannot download files
  from a BBS   unless you  have 1 Meg of  memory.   ZMDM v1.62 - A Unix  style
  communications  package which can successfully communicate with  Unix  based
  host machines.  Emulates a 80*25 terminal (80*50 on high res).  Supports  X-
  Modem, Y-Modem and   Z-Modem file transfer protocols. Full user manual and C
  source code on disk. Cannot support split baud rates.

  COM.15   NET ST by Phil Karn (KA9Q TC/IP Net on the ST) - For use with  host
  systems running the above protocol. I really can't comment much on this disk
  as  it  refers  to a system that I am not  familiar   with.  If  anyone  can
  elaborate,  please  do so.  It looks like a very competent program which  is
  very badly documented.  MOTERM ELITE v1.41 - Perhaps the best communications
  program available. Fully GEM based. It has the ability to transfer sound and
  graphics over the modem as well as normal files.  In addition it features  a
  new  protocol  Dmodem  which  is compatible with  but  better  than  Xmodem.
  Originally  a  commmercial program but now Shareware.  Requires  1  Meg   of
  memory.

  COM.18M   Programs  for amateur radio users.  AURORA - Helps  calculate  the
  position  of  the  auroral curtain.  ORBIT - A  satellite  tracker  program.

  is  mainly  used on 144.625 MHz.  This version supports file  uploading  and
  downloading,  automatic mail forwarding and numerous other functions such as
  finger, telnet and ttylink. You can also have your station used as a node as
  well  as all of the above.  You will need to have an IP number allocated  to
  you  in  the form of [44.131.x.xxx] from your local IP  co-ordinator  before
  using the program.  You will just need to change G6ACT to your own  callsign
  and  [44.131.2.38] to your IP address.  You will also need a HOSTS.NET  file
  which  you should enquire locally for.  Also included on disk is  the  gulam
  shell  and the BM Mailer which are used in conjunction with the  program.  A
  hard drive is recommend but not essential. Net requires a TNC which operates
  in KISS mode.  This is the nearest Amateur Radio implementation of  Internet
  there is and is highly recommended.

  a  method of bundling all your messages from/to a BBS into  one  file,  then
  compressing  it using ARC,  ZIP,  LZH,  or some similar  archiving  utility.
  Similar  to  BlueWave on the PC.  It saves lots of online  time  (and  phone
  bills)!  This version has many improvements,  mainly in window handling  and

  archived on disk.  There is also a PMS and Node function and you can install
  new commands into your PMS. You can autoroute to different stations and also
  up/download software to and from other SP stations. On the accompanying disk
  there are extra programs which can be installed as commands on your  system.
  Also included is the TFPCR Firmware emulator by <NORD-LINK>. Super Packet is
  highly  recommended  to any serious Packet user,  especially on  the  busier
  frequencies.  The  PC  version is a commercial package but  the  ST  version
  remains freeware! Needs 1 Meg.

  COM.4153 - This disk is mainly a support disk of utilities for Super  Packet
  users.  ANALYZER - Run after a system crash to find out why the system  hung
  up  or crashed.  AUTOPATH v1.2 and v1.4 - This German program is  useful  in
  editing  the  Paths  file of Super Packet.  It has the  ability  to  set  up
  automatic  routes  to  various stations through the 3 main  types  of  nodes
  (Baycom/NetRom,  Flexnet  or  TheNet) and in any combination.  COMMAND  -  A
  Command Line Interpreter which is used with the DOS command of Super Packet.
  DIGIMAP  -  A 95k file which contains digipeating routes to  European  BBSs.
  SPFONTS  - A number of fonts which can be used by Super Packet to  customise
  it to your preference.  SPTALK - This is an add-on to Super Packet which  is
  like Superkiss for Amiga/PC. It gives Super Packet a voice! You will need to
  record your own phonetic alphabet using a sampler, and then you can sit back
  and listen  as your ST talks to you!

  COM.4296  ORACLE v1.4 by Paul Lefebre - A powerful script to automate  GEnie
  access.  Better than Aladdin if you use MultiTOS or Geneva. Many message and
  RoundTable functions can be set up easily and quickly. Can only be used with
  STalker 3 or STeno.  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.  LITS v2.44+
  by Daron Brewood - A multi-user adventure system which can be run through  a
  BBS.  Similar to many other MUDs and MUGs.  This version specially  compiled
  for Floppyshop.  MODEMTST v1.02 by Toad Computers - Find out just what  your
  modem's  made  of!  Displays or prints a complete listing  of  your  modem's
  specifications,  from the chipset maker to the fax standard. Mainly intended

  of Super Quoter by Bill Miller.

  COM.4363   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 module 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.

  modem setup,  rough call costing, auto logon sequences, dial directory, etc.
  Fully GEMmed interface.

  COM.4407  BBSDEMO by Mark Westguard - A BBS locator program.  It displays  a
  map of Britain and you simply click on where you are (or want to search) and
  all BBSs within a certain range will be found and shown on the map.  You can
  also search by name,  print BBS details,  set search radius,  etc.  Only 100
  BBSs are included in this demo version.  If you register (only £5) the  full
  version  has  over 400 BBSs and many other functions.  NOT  TOS  2  upwards.

  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.

  COM.4428   38400BPS by JÜrgen Meyer - Circuit diagram and full  instructions
  on  to  upgrade  your ST's serial port to run at 38400  baud,  just  like  a
  Falcon. Warning: DO NOT try this yourself unless you have nimble fingers and
  are skilled with a soldering iron!  Also remember, this will invalidate your
  warranty  if  your machine is less than 1 year old!  Most  docs  in  German.
  FLASH2D  by  Missionware  Software - A demo version of  the  Flash  II  v2.2
  terminal  program.  Uses Flash DO scripts from previous  versions.  Features
  include complete parameter settings for each BBS you call,  up to 20  macros

  B,  Kermit,  Sealink.  Many other functions too numerous to list!  There are
  some  limitations  in this demo version and a time limit of 50  minutes  per
  session. You must register for the unrestricted version. MODEM0DEV by Tierry
  Bousch  -  Serial device drivers for the "modem1" serial  port  under  MiNT.
  Creates  a  Un*x-like daemon which supports  separate  virtual  input/output
  ports through the same single serial port. Includes full documentation and C
  source code as well as an enhanced stty(1) utility.  MOUNTAIN READER v2.9 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. YMODEM-G v1.25 by Zipline Software - One of
  the fastest file transfer protocols available. Full documentation included.

  COM.4498  ARKADE v1.7 by Lee Offenberger - Arkade Controller is designed  to
  allow on-line games to be run by remote users on a BBS. Full instuctions are
  provided to set up doors to run the games through.  Arkade is shareware, and
  sysops using it are encouraged to register.  Also included are the  Skeleton
  Key,  IO and Call File Selector BBS utilities.  Note:  Arkade is designed to
  work  with BBS Express v1.72 and up.  IGEDIT v2.5 by Larry Mears  -  Instant
  Graphics  &  Sound Editor is an accessory which sits between  your  terminal
  program and the screen. When IGS commands are received, they are carried out
  to  produce graphics,  sound and animation effects using a simple  LOGO-like
  language. Reputedly, this is good enough to make well designed VT52 graphics
  look bad!  Needless to say, the BBS at the other end must use IGS for you to
  get any benefit. TURBORS v1.0 by Neat & Nifty Software - A PD release of the
  software  part  of the TurboRS package.  TurboRS is an upgrade to  the  ST's
  serial  port  to  allow speeds of up to  115200  baud.  The  extra  hardware
  generates  a  faster clock signal to drive the serial port at  these  higher
  speeds.  Note  that  without this hardware,  you can't go  faster  than  the
  standard  19200 baud.  The complete package costs  $44  Canadian,  including
  shipping  charges.  VULCAN  EMBASSY BBS - A complete  BBS  system,  offering
  message  bases  and  online  game  support.   Apparently  it  only  runs  at
  300/1200/2400 baud.  A bit basic,  but everything seems to be there to allow
  you to set up a complete working BBS of your own.

  COM.4547   FLASHDIAL  - Script files for the Flash terminal  emulator  which
  allow you to autodial a list of numbers (from 3 to 10 numbers in total)  and
  redial  only  those which did not connect.  OMNI BBS V1.01 - A  BBS  with  a
  difference,  this one can run from a floppy based system.  It is  compatible
  with VT52,  VT100,  VT130,  VT220, ANSI Televideo 912, 920, 925 and IBM 3101
  terminals.  If  you just have one drive,  message areas will be limited  and
  uploading and downloading will be disabled.  Apart from that,  the system is
  fully functional. A ramdisk is needed if you do not own a hard drive and one
  is supplied with the package.  RINGBACK V1.0 - Allows you to run a BBS and a
  voice phone on the same line. This programs checks for a specified number of
  rings  and  sets up the BBS to receive an incoming call the  next  time  the
  phone rings (if appropriate).  THE THIEVES GUILD V1.0 - A massive  Shareware
  role playing game for running on a BBS. The game was developed over a period
  of  five  years and can be played for up to 24 minutes per  day,  with  each
  minute equivalent to one hour of real time. There is also a module available
  on  support  BBS's  for downloading which  supports  instant  menu  display,
  digitised sound,  visual effects for all Atari users dialing into your  BBS.
  This  is  a  multi-player RPG where different callers to  the  BBS  interact
  (albeit not in real time) with each other in the course of the day's events!
  It comes with an extensive manual on disk which includes plenty of hints and
  tips to get you going.

  COM.4548  ON-LINE MODEM PROGRAMS - A collection of games which can be played
  whilst connected to a bulletin board or by connecting two ST's together  via
  a null modem cable. QUEST V1.37 by JPSCAB - On line adventure game with full
  instructions on how to install but very little clues as to the game content!
  Runs on FoReM and BBS Express based bulletin boards.  Freeware.  MAZE COMBAT
  V1.095  by Sean Dougherty - A two player over-the-modem game which  revolves
  around  a massive number of mazes and robots which you can use to battle  it
  out with friends or enemies. Weapons include missiles and mines! Runs on any
  ST/STE/TT  Falcon  in  low res.  A graphics accelerator and  a  blitter  are
  recommended if you are using an 8Mhz 68000 based machine. Shareware. REVENGE
  OF  ZORGOTH  by  Pandamonium Software - Demo  version  of  ongoing  Medieval
  adventure game. Quest cannot be completed unless you register. Short docs so
  you are on your own a bit. Shareware. ST NATIONAL V1.10 by Four Wheels BBS -
  An on-line drag racing game which looks very comprehensive with many options
  including  the  choice of car components,  gear ratio and even a  choice  of
  tyres! A store is included where you can buy everything from piston-rings to
  new engine.  Obviously the more points you get from wins, the better you can
  build up your car. TRIVIAL PURSUIT V2.00 by Keith Ledbetter for BBS EXPRESS!
  - This game is based around two ideas, the actual Trivial Pursuit board game
  and  the previous trivia scripts written by EXPRESS!  All the functions  are
  contained in one .COM file and options include adding questions to the game,
  setting the time limit and much more. Short docs but this game is well known
  to many so should not be a problem.  Please note that this game consists  of
  scripts for use on BBS EXPRESS! and cannot be used with other systems. WREST
  V1.51  by Shawn Smith - An on-line wrestling game where you have options  to
  choose such characteristics as weight, strength, intelligence and much more.
  All the moves and their success (or failure!) is based upon a random  number
  generation.  Short docs again but as the author states,  the game is  pretty
  obvious. Shareware. STAR BATTLE V1.02 by Kevin Moody - A Star Trek type game
  where  you  venture into Outer Space on a trading and  exploration  mission.
  Fully mouse controlled which makes a change from most on-line games.

  COM.4549  ON-LINE MODEM PROGRAMS - Another collection of games which can  be
  played  whilst  connected  to a bulletin board or  by  connecting  two  ST's
  together via a null modem cable.  CONFLICT by Bobby Shaughnessy - A 'Conquer
  The World' on-line game.  It features mouse control plus colour graphics and
  sound and supports up to 20 players in the Registered version. The object is
  to  conquer  the  world by forming legions.  You get one  legion  for  every
  country you win or continue to hold,  for one day.  Your computer takes over
  in attack mode with odds for and against you, plus much more. This is a very
  comprehensive  on-line game.  Shareware.  DIP V1.4 by Jeff Fehlman - A  Door
  Interface  Program that allows on-line games to be run on a BBS  that  might
  not otherwise be able to run them.  It does this by writing the  information
  file in the format the game expects. In addition, DIP provides a menu driven
  interface  with  the user and logs user actions if  required.  Set  up  docs
  included.  Shareware.  HILO V1.4 by Matt Heaton - A high-low score recording
  system  for on-line games between players with configurable options such  as
  the setting of upper and lower limits.  Includes short setup docs.  For  use
  with  BBS EXPRESS.  HORSE V1.0 - A BBS horse racing program which gives  you
  the thrill of on-line horse racing, well almost! You are given $100 to start
  with and must accumulate as much money as you can. If you lose and go broke,
  you get kicked off the track! IRON BOMBER 2 by David Rudda Jnr - Rather than
  controlling  a plane as in Iron Bomber 1,  you now command a defensive  role
  and must take out the attacking air strikes.  Includes good documentation on
  installation and options include high score tables to accommodate both  1200
  - 2400 baud users and high speed modem users.  Players should read the  docs
  relating  to  time allowed per day or you could time-out in  the  middle  of
  playing!  Shareware.  SPACE  EMPIRE  ELITE  V11.37 by Jon Radoff  -  A  very
  comprehensive on-line game for up to 25 players.  The object of the game  is
  to  become the richest person in terms of power (money,  military  strength,
  size)  and  to achieve the highest score.  The computer controls  an  empire
  known as the Satharian Empire,  which is populated by a race of evil lizard-
  like  creatures  whose sole interest is to kill  off  your  population.  The
  Satharians  may attack you at random,  even capturing some of your  planets.
  Many options and game configurations are available for players. As this is a
  multi-player game,  there is a time limit on play-time and the SysOp of each
  board configures the turns per day.  You may use some of the turns, quit the
  game and decide to play later in the day. ON LINE BLACKJACK by Eric Drewry -
  Like  so many on-line games,  there's extensive installation docs  and  very
  little  on  gameplay.  Still,  if you play Blackjack this  won't  present  a
  problem!

  COM.5047  MULTI-USER DUNGEON (MUD) - This is the ST version of the  original
  on-line  Dungeons  and Dragons game that started it all!  There's  no  fancy
  graphics,  MUD is entirely text based.  Extensive documentation is included,
  but it's every bit as cryptic as the game itself!  MUD runs on any ST/E with
  at least 1 Meg of memory and a hard drive.  A great game to add to your BBS,
  which is bound to pull in more users.  PLEASE NOTE:- MUD has been compressed
  to  fit onto a floppy disk and MUST be decompressed to a hard  drive  before
  use.

  COM.5099  MSB_ANSI by Mark S Baines - These three GDOS bitmapped  fonts  are
  equivalent  to the three Atari system fonts and based on them,  but  include
  the ANSI characters suitable for comms on-line use and those using so-called
  IBM printer fonts in their word processor.  In effect,  the fonts are  those
  officially called PC-8 Code Page 437 on the PC. Protext users will find them
  particularly  useful.  The included docs explain how to set them up  in  the
  ASSIGN.SYS file for use with NVDI or install them under NEODesk.  TEDDY TERM
  V2.14 by Uncensored Software -  A complete terminal program which uses ANSI,
  VT100,  VT52  &  ASCII terminal emulations.  Can be set  for  virtually  any
  imaginable configuration.  Its many options include 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.

    COM.5161  FSERIAL V0.96E by Roman Hodeck - An update to a similar program on
  UTL.3879. A comprehensive program which attempts to fix the problem with the
  RTS/CTS handshaking. The problem the ST/STe/TT has, 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.  SHADOW TERM II by Michael Forget -  Very
  comprehensive terminal program which incorporates a good direct  menu-driven
  user  interface.  Includes  a  host of disk functions and a  wide  range  of
  terminal  commands not found on other similar types of programs.  A  special
  interface  is  included  which allows you to run up to 10  programs  with  a
  single  key  stroke.  Shadow Term uses XYZ external  transfer  protocol  and
  Ymodem-G  external  protocol,  both  of which are  included  on  this  disk.
  Shareware. MT C_SHELL UUCP V2.0 - These files update the corresponding files
  from the UUCP distribution.  They require MT C_Shell V2.00 and are an update
  only  as you will need the remaining files from the version of UUCP  already
  installed  on  your MT_SHELL system in addition to  these  files.  In  other
  words,  this  patch  is  no use to you unless you already  have  an  earlier
  version of MT C_Shell UUCP.

  COM.5183   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. 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.

  COM.5249   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, requires 1 Mb and a hard drive.

  COM.5267  REJOINDER V1.3 by William Wong - A very comprehensive QWK off-line
  reader.  This  is a complete version featuring GEM  menus,  windows,  dialog
  boxes,  toolbars,  hotkeys, fast window redaws, the ability to view or reply
  to  up to 5 different mails at any one time,  online context sensitive  help
  with ST Guide and much more!  Rejoinder gives the user full configuration of
  preferred  compression  programs  and  has  the  ability  to   automatically
  recognise the type (lzh,  zip, arc etc) of QWK files being uploaded and call
  up  the apropriate one for unpacking.  Also included is a TALK feature  (you
  must have SPEAK.TOS in your startup directory) which will read out mails  in
  conferences.  This  program  has  many,  many more features  and  is  highly
  recomended.   TERMINOLGY   by   Paul  Foster  -   An   excellent   Shareware
  communications  program which will run on ALL Atari machines.  This  program
  offers  many  options including the choice of  several  terminal  emulations
  (there is currently support for TTY,  VT52,  ANSI,  IGS,  RIP and VIEWDATA).
  User defined options include audio on/off,   RS232 settings, system options,
  edit  paths,  macros,  capture setup,  autodialer,  batch  queue,  extensive
  keyboard control. Terminology also supports scrollback, file transfer, split
  screen  chatting and has a built-in text editor.  Extensive  docs  included.
  Terminology is colour only and needs 1 Mb.

  COM.5268 BINKLEY TERM V3.17 by Bit Bucket Software - The Atari conversion of
  a popular DOS based comms program.  Although Binkley Term is TOS based  with
  no graphic interface,  it has many redeeming features.  It can be used as  a
  standard comms package for logging on to a BBS,  or as a BBS system  itself.
  In   addition,   Binkley  Term  fully  supports  the  changed  serial   port
  designations on the TT and Falcon and can send and receive faxes if you have
  a  Zyxel fax modem.  A popular program with Stateside users.  BTNC V1.10  by
  Daniel  Roesen - BinkleyTerm ST Nodelist Compiler.  This program  claims  to
  many  advantages  over previous offerings.  It supports a full  5D  nodelist
  (only  3  files are required for the output nodelist,  no  matter  how  many
  domains  you  use).  There  is no need for PR24USER anymore  as  nearly  all
  nodelist flags are parsed and all sysops are now included in one file. It is
  also possible to include FrontDoor-style pointlists.  PARSELST V1.10 by  Bob
  Hartman  - A nodelist processing program for processing a Fidonet  nodelist.
  It  uses  a  control file to process the information  contained  in  a  raw,
  "St.Louis" nodelist,  and turn the information into a form usable by several
  Fidonet  compatible BBS and mailer packages,  including  BinkleyTerm,  Opus-
  CBCS,  TBBS  and QuickBBS.  ParseLst is capable of producing so-called  "new
  Opus  style" (Version 6) nodelist files for use with BlinkleyTerm  1.21  and
  above,  or  Opus-CBCS  1.10  and above.  APOINTS.FAQ -  Atari  Point  System
  Frenquenly  Asked  Questions V0.4 by Paul Civati.  This  document  has  been
  written to help answer questions about setting up or running a point  system
  on  an Atari.  Primarily written for the TurboNet T_POINTS echo  but  should
  serve  as  FAQ  for running a point system on an Atari for  any  mail  work.
  POINT.TXT  -  A description of the mechanisms by which Fidonet mail  can  be
  accessed on-line, off-line and by pointing. The document will be distributed
  initially  as  a whole,  but you are encouraged to split it into  its  three
  parts  if you feel that may be more useful ( i.e.,  you think someone  might
  read a short document, but not the whole thing).

  COM.5314   STARCALL v2.0e - 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.

  COM.5317 AM-RADIO - Excellent data reference program (using Super Card V1.3)
  which contains an extensive listing of the location of local radio  stations
  in the UK,  plus full address, tel and fax numbers. Also included is listing
  of  World Wide radio Stations and their locations.  Last but not least is  a
  full  listing  of  operations and relevant frequencies  between  1.6Mhz  and
  30Mhz,  which will be of great interest to short wave radio  users.  IOSmail
  V0.89  by R Visscher - Very comprehensive mail tosser program  package  with
  full  instructions  and  user manual included.  TOSmail is  a  program  that
  imports,  exports,  scans  and crunches FidoNet mail and FidoNet  compatible
  mail.  TOSmail  will import and create files as described in the  file  FIS-
  0001. Only these type of files are supported by TOSmail. TXT-2-PRG V1.0 by M
  J Matts - A Shareware program which displays file lists by first  converting
  the  text to program files.  ICE-PACK v2.4 (not included) is needed to  pack
  the files.

  COM.5421   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  old
  data when you pay the bill so that remaining data is valid for the next one.
  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 nodelists in uselists etc.  Please note that you  will  also
  need  a  mailer program (Binkley Term or Semper),  an  importer  (Llegada or
  JetMail)  and  a message editor (LED).  THE LITTLE VILLIAN  MORSE  TUTOR  by
  Gareth  Jones  - Designed to help get you through your morse code  test  for
  your amateur radio licence.  It sends you 60 strings,  each consisting of  5
  random  letters,  numbers  or  a   combination of the  two.   Any string  of
  characters  can  be   entered and  converted into morse.  Even an ASCII file
  can  be  converted.

  COM.5448M, COM.5449M, COM.5450M, COM.5451M, COM.5452M, COM.5453M & COM.5454M
  CHIMERA,  TELNET & FTP  RUNNING UNDER  X-WINDOWS -  This set  of  disks  has
  everything you  need  to turn  your ST  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 ST.  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 ST 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 is the next best thing (and it  runs  on  an
  'ordinary' ST. Please note that this package requires 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  also  requires  a  high
  resolution mono monitor.

  COM.5468  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
  all applications on this disk require 4 Mb and a hard drive and can only  be
  used if MiNTNet  (S-COM.5448M,  S-COM.5449M,  S-COM.5450M,  S-COM.5451M,  S-
  COM.5452M, S-COM.5453M & S-COM.5454M) is installed on your system.

  COM.5515   STiK WEATHER FORECAST v0.4 by Jim Baumgardner and Dan Ackerman  -
  When used in conjunction with STiK on S-COM.5551 & S-COM.5552,  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.  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!  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 COM.5421) can include them in your call  logging.
  SBCABPRG  by  Guy  Harrison  - Install it as  an  external  viewer  for  CAB
  (COM.5313).  It  will  then let you intercept files and save  them  to  your
  chosen  destination,  rather  than have them disappear namelessly  into  the
  cache!  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.  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.

  COM.5551 &  COM.5552  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.5183) 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 not 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.

  COM.5566  &  COM.5567   OASIS 2.10  by  Phil Yeadon  and  Dave  Levi  -  The
  ultimate Internet access package. This is the long awaited followup to Oasis
  on  COM.5249 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 1 Mb and a hard drive.

  COM.5626   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.  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 determine which calls are voice and which are  data.  CAB
  MINT V1.84 - A modified version of the CAB.OVL file which allows you to  use
  the  WWW Access Pack (S-COM.5551 & S-COM.5552) when running  MiNT/Multi-TOS.
  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. 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 DEM.4838. CALLTIME V1.0 by Bill Rice - Monitors your
  modem  and logs the date/time/telephone number of all calls  received.  Most
  useful when printer output is selected,  otherwise it just displays the data
  on screen.  Useful for finding out who called when you were out.  Only works
  with Hayes compatible modems which are Caller ID compatible.

  COM.5633  TAZ V1.00 by Daryl Richards & Kevin Tessner - A terminal  emulator
  with a few noticeable extras like the ability to use 16 colours on a  medium
  resolution screen and support for speeds in excess of 38400 bps. It is based
  on Telix on the PC and supports TTY,  VT52 and ANSI emulations and both  the
  Atari  and IBM character sets.  Other features include a  scrollback  buffer
  (lets you recap on anything which went flying up the screen) and a 200 entry
  dial  directory for all your favourite BBS numbers.  File transfer  supports
  ASCII,  X-Modem, Y-Modem or you can call any external transfer program (such
  as XYZ.TTP).  TAZ can be controlled by mouse or keyboard and includes an in-
  built Help screen and a comprehensive manual on disk.  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.  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.

  COM.5678  RS TURBO V2.3 by Erik Kerger - A hardware modification for the  ST
  which allows the serial port speed to be increased from 19200 bps to  115200
  bps  (suitable  for use with a 28800 bps modem using  data  compression).  A
  knowledge of electronics is required. Includes an IMG of the circuit diagram
  and a listing for blowing into a GAL device.  All in German but we've done a
  RUF translation.  TUW V1.22 by Peter Mayer - A TCP/IP package for connecting
  multiple  Atari (and other types of) computers over a local TCP/IP  network.
  The author used it to integrate STs and TTs into a network based around  Sun
  workstations.  Must  be  interfaced  to the network via  an  Ethernet  card.
  TUW4PAM  by Torsten Lang - Similar to the above but by a  different  author.
  Custom  written for the PAM Ethernet cards which plug into the VME  slot  in
  the  TT and Mega ST.  All in German but we've done a RUF translation of  the
  docs.

  COM.5763   RS232-2 by Kari Alakuijala - A DIY project to construct a  second
  RS232  port  for your ST.  Especially handy if you have a  serial  mouse  or
  graphics  tablet and wish to use it as well as a modem.  Includes a  circuit
  diagram and full instructions. A knowledge of electronics is required. CACHE
  ED V0.5 by Manfred Ssykor - A support program for use with the Crystal Atari
  Browser on S-COM.5551 & S-COM.5552.  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.
  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  (COM.5183),
  Maximiser (COM.3104),  Captain's QWK (COM.4149) or similar. AXOLOTL FOOTBALL
  LEAGUE  V8.8 by D Nelson - An on-line game which is compatible with any  BBS
  software  which  supports the commonly used 'doors' routines.  As  the  name
  suggests,  it  is an American Football League simulator.  You can choose  to
  coach  any  team  in  the league and  play  against  a  computer  controlled
  opponent.  It's not just a management/strategy simulator where the game runs
  according  to instructions,  you actually participate by calling  the  shots
  'live' during the game.  The sysop sets up the timetable for the league  and
  players  must call regularly to participate in each stage.  There's  even  a
  league  table for the winners.  AFL runs in text or ANSI mode and  has  full
  instructions  built into the game.  ANTGNVAX - Replacement RSCs for  AntMail
  (from  the WWW Access Pack on S-COM.5551 & S-COM.5552) so that  the  display
  looks  correct under the Geneva multi-tasking OS.  Unless you  have  Geneva,
  you'll see no difference by using these!

  COM.5829  &  COM.5830  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 (COM.5551) and  HS
  Modem  (COM.4407) 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.

  COM.5868   AFTP V1.4B1 by J & T Krivankove - A GEM based ftp client for  use
  with MintNet (S-COM.5829 & S-COM.5830).  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).  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.  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
  time,  just  about everything can be customised and you can even send  files
  directly  from  one  user to another via DCC transfers.  Needs  STiK  on  S-
  COM.5551  & S-COM.5552.  RSVE by Harun Scheutow - A DIY modification to  the
  ST's serial port which allows you to double the maximum speed of the port to
  38400  bps,  allowing speeds of up to 115000 bps (with compression) using  a
  28,800  bps modem.  Includes diagrams and circuit board layouts as  well  as
  full instructions (in German but we've done a RUF translation). This project
  involves the creating of a GAL device so you'll need to have access to a GAL
  programmer.  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.

  COM.5898   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).  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.  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.

  COM.5899   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.  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.  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. 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.

  COM.5979  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 by 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. Needs 1 Mb.

  COM.5980   LED v1.40 by Stephen Slabihoud - Originally developed as an  off-
  line message editor for BinkleyTerm (COM.5268) but fully compatible with any
  BBS connected to the FidoNet network.  It allows you to read your email  and
  reply  to it,  but you will still need some sort of mailer software such  as
  IOSMail,  JetMail  or  Semper in order to retrieve your mail  in  the  first
  place.  LED tends to be the 'standard' offline reader for those who are  set
  up as points on the FidoNet network, although it is perfectly usable for all
  BBS  users.  Includes  a useful utility which lets create your  own  printer
  driver  which  maps unprintable screen characters onto others which  can  be
  understood by the printer.  Well documented in ASCII and ST-Guide (UTL.5557)
  format  in both English and German.  This is a major upgrade of the  program
  which used to be on COM.5268.

  COM.6043   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. 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.

  COM.6082   JETMAIL V0.99 by Daniel Rosin and Jorg Spilker - Mailer  software
  for  use with Semper (COM.5626) and Binkley Term (COM.5268).  It  is  really
  only  of interest to BBS sysops and anyone who is set up as a "point"  to  a
  bulletin  board  on the FidoNet system.  My understanding  is  that  Jetmail
  handles the bulk transfer of mail between BBSs and points within the FidoNet
  system.  The documentation assumes a working knowledge of the above packages
  and means absolutely nothing to anyone who is not conversant with them. This
  disk  contains a limited demo version,  but you can use it to obtain a  free
  key  which gives you full access to Jetmail's features for three  weeks,  by
  which  time  you  can pay your shareware fee if you  are  still  using  this
  package.

  COM.6086   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.  CNF CHECK by Brian Hauer  -  Inspects  and
  verifies  configuration  files  for v0.47 and v0.48  of  the  Foresight  BBS
  software.  Assuming  the file passes a verification check,  it  displays  an
  interpretation  of  the CNF on screen.  You can then spot  and  correct  any
  errors which are likely to upset Foresight. 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.  DATABLAZE V2.7 by Sherry  Mackiewicz  -  A
  customised   database  which  holds  up  to  500  names  along  with   their
  corresponding email addresses.  It has a powerful search facility which only
  requires  a few letters to be typed in order to bring up  possible  matches.
  Can  be  used for any type of email address (BBS or  Internet).  DRIVERS  by
  Torsten Lang - C and Assember sources (no executables) for drivers (one  for
  the  ST,  the other for STE) for the AMD LANCE (AM7990) Ethernet  board  and
  PAM's  DMA Ethernet adaptor.  Documentation is in English but rather  sparse
  and  suggests  that the drivers are unfinished.  IOS SHELL V0.1B  by  Martin
  Howard - An adaptation of Rinaldo Visscher's IOS Shell for use with  IOSMail
  on  COM.5317.  It  gives an easy to use GEM based front end  to  the  rather
  unfriendly  IOS-MAIL.TTP  program.  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.

  COM.6099  ALTA LISTA V1.5 by Mathias Jaap - An excellent  multi-purpose  tool
  designed  for  use  with  the CAB  (COM.5552)  or  Wensuite  (COM.5899)  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.  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?  STiK
  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.

  COM.6124  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.

  COM.6138  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.  Program and docs in  English,
  French, Italian and Swedish. Newsie only works if STiK is installed.

  COM.6164   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.  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  to your ISP in order to send/receive the news  articles.  MAKE_GET  by
  Swampdog  - Lets you download only the headers of Usenet newsgroup  articles
  rather than the entire articles when using Oasis 1.xx.  You can then  select
  the  articles  you  wish  to read and download  only  those  ones  in  their
  entirety.  You need Oasis 1.xx (COM.5249) and POP NOS (COM.5633) in order to
  use  this  program.  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.  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 privilege 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.

  COM.6195 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!
  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.  GLUESTIK V0.03B2 by Scott Bingham -  A  modified
  version  of  STiK  (COM.5551) which is designed for  use  with  MiNTNet  (S-
  COM.5829  &  S-COM.5830).  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.

  COM.6197  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  Wen Suite.  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. Needs 1Mb. Hard drive recommended but not essential. 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.  WEB PAGE CREATOR V2.0 by Rob Mahlert - We've all seen  WebSpinner
  and HP Pengiun,  Web Page Creator is another program of that genre.  In  its
  current  format  it  is  a  little rough  around  the  edges  offering  only
  text/graphic import,  horizontal lines, background images and links, with no
  real control over the positioning of elements on the page.  However, it is a
  very simple program to use and therefore ideally suited to someone who knows
  nothing  of HTML and wants a simple homepage run up in a matter of  minutes.
  Medium res only.

  COM.6226  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.

  COM.6194  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 640 x400 (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.

  COM.6198C  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 (COM.5551) or STiNG (COM.6043) 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 and Antmail 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 (UTL.6071), BubbleGEM
  (UTL.6021),  AV server messages and Multi-TOS's drag and drop protocol.  All
  docs in HTML format so you'll need a copy of CAB (COM.5552) 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).  Even if  you
  have one of the above,  it still needs to be run in at least 16 colours with
  a minimum screen width of 640 pixels.  This effectively means that when  run
  on an ST, you either require a graphics card or a virtual screen driver such
  as LaceScan (UTL.6185). Requires at least 1Mb and a hard drive.

  COM.6286 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,  Newsie or Infitra to  handle
  your email, providing a total solution for email and newsgroup access. Needs
  1Mb and a hard drive. Doesn't run unless NVDI is installed! HTML2TXT V1.0 by
  Thomas Salin - Converts any HTML file (as found on the Web) into pure  ASCII
  by removing all the custom tags. This program goes further than most in that
  it  reformats  the layout of the text to match that of  the  HTML  document.
  Admittedly it does not handle tables correctly but the ASCII text does  give
  a  close match to the original document layout-wise in all  other  respects.
  A2HTML V0.3 by Tommy Andersen - Converts an ASCII text file into HTML  code.
  Although  you could do this manually,  A2HTML inserts the correct  tags  and
  maintains  the  formatting  of the  original.  Characters  used  in  Eastern
  European  languages  are handled correctly by A2HTML.  When  performing  the
  conversion,  it converts your text from Atari ASCII to the 7-bit  ISO-8859-1
  character  set  to  ensure compatibility with users  of  different  machines
  accessing  your  pages.  It can create its html output from  standard  Atari
  ASCII files or ISO-8859-1 files. As well as the executable (for TOS only), C
  sources  are supplied for compiling on the Atari or under Linux.  The  Linux
  version even accepts Atari (as well as Unix) ASCII files as its input. THE Z
  FILES  by Roy Goring - Two documents explaining how to set up STiNG for  use
  on  Zetnet and how to configure the software supplied by Zetnet in order  to
  get  you  on-line for the first time.  It also gives details on how  to  get
  further assistance once you've finally made the connection,  so you can iron
  out  any  remaining problems.  INFITRA V1.0 by Eabe Kuik -  Another  emailer
  program.  Infitra is very well presented,  using the modern face of GEM,  is
  multi-tasking  friendly and support graphic cards.  It is  fully  compatible
  with STiK and STiNG.  Infitra features support for multiple email  addresses
  (eg;  [e-mail], [e-mail] etc), each with its
  own mailbox.  What's more, your list of email contacts are stored separately
  for  each  email  account.  This makes Infitra ideal  for  handling  "family
  accounts"  where each member of the family can have his email  delivered  to
  his  own mailbox and can access a list of email addresses which  pertain  to
  his contacts and nobody else's. As well as simply downloading your mail, you
  can  also check the mail headers and decide which mail to download and  even
  delete  (or defer downloading of) mail with huge attachments or  known  junk
  mail  without even having to download it.  You can attach files to  messages
  and extract attachments which are in uuencoded format and queue up  messages
  for  sending at a later time.  One of the best mailer programs  yet.  Please
  note, Infitra is mono (or graphic card) only. Needs 1Mb and a hard drive.
