- THE AREXX APPLICATION LIST
- (for Commodore Amiga computers)
-
- Maintained by Daniel Barrett
- barrett@cs.umass.edu
- Last Updated: August 31, 1992
- 180 products listed!
-
- This is a list of computer programs for the Commodore Amiga that
- support the ARexx interprocess communication language. Using ARexx,
- you can cause these programs to interact with each other, control each
- other, share data, and other useful things.
-
- This list does not describe products in detail. It does not rate
- them or review them. It does not list the authors' addresses. However, it
- does provide the names and brief descriptions of many, many ARexx-compatible
- products. If you need more information on a product, consult Amiga
- magazines, USENET, or a product guide like AC's GUIDE TO THE COMMODORE AMIGA
- which is published quarterly in the USA by PiM Publications.
-
- This document is updated monthly and posted in the USENET newsgroup
- comp.sys.amiga.applications.
-
- I have listed all the ARexx products I know, but many entries
- are incomplete, and I've certainly missed some products. If you use
- any of these products, or know of some new ones, please send me the
- information! I am also interested in suggestions to improve this list.
- (See submission instructions at the end.)
-
-
- DISTRIBUTION
-
- Please share this document!! It is freely distributable, provided
- that the following conditions are met:
-
- (1) No fee may be charged for its distribution except for
- reasonable copying and/or postage costs.
-
- Fred Fish is specifically given permission to include this
- list on disks in his "AmigaLibDisk" series.
-
- (2) The whole document must be distributed, including this
- header and the list of contributors.
-
- (3) If you include this list in a printed or disk-based
- publication, you are welcome to typeset it differently so it
- looks nicer. However, you may not omit any information, in
- accordance with condition (2).
-
- If you would like to distribute this list by some other method not falling
- under conditions (1), (2) and (3), contact me and we'll talk. :-)

-
-
- HOW TO READ THE LIST
-
- The information about each product includes:
-
- Product name: The name of the product.
- Product version: The version number of the program.
- Since version numbers are constantly
- changing, the only guarantee you have is
- that this version DOES support ARexx.
- It is also extremely likely that any
- version with a higher number also supports
- ARexx.
- Product type: What kind of product is this?
- Results are in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS so
- you can search for topics more consistently.
- Author: The author's name.
- Status: Commercial? Freeware? Shareware? ...
- Port name: The name of the ARexx port.
- Number of commands: How many ARexx commands are supported.
- Executes scripts by: A description of how ARexx is used from
- INSIDE THE PROGRAM. (We assume that every
- ARexx application can be invoked from
- OUTSIDE the program.) Examples are:
- function keys, macro filename from a file
- requester, any key, mouse click, etc.
- If the program cannot invoke scripts,
- then the entry is "External control only."
- Notes: Brief but important information.
-
- Rather than printing the list, I suggest that you keep it on-line.
- Use your text editor or some "searching" programs (like "grep" or "search")
- to find items of interest quickly. For example, to find ARexx-compatible
- text editors, search for the word EDITOR.
-
- The products are listed alphabetically in three categories:
-
- (1) Applications that support ARexx
- (2) Collections of ARexx scripts
- (3) Utilities for ARexx programmers (function libraries, etc.)
