¢NOSAUG PD UPDATE - NOV/DEC 1993¢¢¢NOSAUG PD CATALOGUE¢¢ The NOSAUG PD Catalogue is nearing completion! It has taken me quite some time but there is finally light at the end of the tunnel. It is amazing how long it takes to list and describe every program on every disk!¢¢ I haven't decided on the final format but I'm leaning towards a disk-based catalogue, with utilities to help you print listings, order forms, etc. Look out for the first version by mid-January. It will be FREE to all Futura subscribers!¢¢ When you receive your catalogue, please consider ordering something. The NOSAUG PD Library is central to the survival and expansion of both Futura and NOSAUG. I take great pride in putting together PD disks which offer the best possible value-for-money. If you give them a try, I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised at the high level of quality!¢¢¢NEW NOSAUG PD DISKS¢¢ Look out for some new disks just added to the library...¢¢¢U30 - Page Editor V3.3¢¢ I was sent this disk some time back by the Ol' Hackers A.U.G. in New York, USA. I've only recently had time to examine it and I have to say that it looks very impressive! It is a WYSIWYG desk-top publishing package. WYSIWYG stands for What You See Is What You Get. Yes, 80 column on-screen editing! There are lots of fonts and icons on the disk along with a detailed manual. Impressive stuff!¢¢¢U31 - Sound Monitor Professional V1.2¢¢ I've produced a double-sided SMP disk from three single-sided versions which I received from different sources. This double-sided disk contains SMP1.2, Replayer files, docs in English and 20 wonderful .SNG files!¢¢¢U32 - Yearly Calendar Maker & Others¢¢ I've squeezed five very useful utility programs onto this disk. Yearly Calendar Maker and Disk Cataloger are two powerful utilities from OHAUG in the USA. Turbo BASIC 3.2q is a version for SpartaDOS users. Sound Tutorial & Utility is an interesting collection of sound modules which you can use in your own programs. Finally, on Side B you'll find the Lode Runner Utility Disk. This will let you transfer, print, edit and save Lode Runner screens. Build your own screens for use with your Lode Runner disk. The Utility Disk will NOT play Lode Runner screens. For that you need the commercial game disk by Broderbund Software.¢¢¢U33 - 1029 Utilities¢¢ Lots of powerful printer utilities for the Atari 1029 printer, including an excellent screen dump program.¢¢¢D22 - Digital Bikinis¢¢ Digi-pics of many beautiful girls in their swin-wear. OK, so it's not 100 degrees and we're not on a Californian beach, but we can dream!¢¢¢¢ Please refer to the DISKPD file on Futura issue 9 (Sep/Oct 1993) for a list of NOSAUG PD disks.¢
