             screen when the computer is started up. This could, of
             course, be bypassed by an experienced user but 99% of
             computer thieves wouldn't know an Arc. from a Z81 so it
             might make them discard it or not bother to nick it

             even have as much as half the chance of winning as you

             has a few omissions or I've been floating my boat on dry

!Arctist+  = 1.00 256 colour art package. Rather old now and once
             withdrawn because it kept crashing. This version was
             modified by a user so it doesn't crash. I have made a few

             you quit and fixed a few other bugs.

             crippled version of a commercial package (the distributors

             are of the Shareware principle) but it is useful 'as is'

             inclusion in !Draw/!Draw+ as a text area

             4Mb of RAM

             Unfortunately it's somewhat diminished by the complete
             lack of instructions but is otherwise quite good
!ThreeDee  = 1.01 Simple drawing program from Robert Seago. It's
             designed for line drawing in perspective and you can move

             interesting

!Clock     = Not a very exiting clock, but as it only tells the time

             been in use, etc.

!NewsFlash ^ 0.25 Multi-line BBS package by Chris Davis. The Author

             released as PD. It is a cut down version of the web
             browser for viewing file off-line. This is really just a
             way of getting a free ad distributed for termite, so it

             is a useful HTML reader so I will include it here

!ArcMirror = A utility which can be used in conjunction with ArcFS or
             SparkFS to create an archive which consists of just a
             directory structure. I gather that BBS's often want to do
             this (in fact PKZIP can do it on the PC).
!AutoArc   = 2.10  Makes archiving a series of files/apps using ArcFS

             fairly comprehensive and quite fast. It's not quite as
             easy to use as !ArcFS (you have to create the archive
             first and then compress it separately) but it does seem
             to work reasonably well, and with a registration fee of
             only £10 it's cheaper that either ArcFS or SparkFS,
             although I have had some problems with it. Not as good as
             ArcFS for commercial purposes but it might be worth
             considering for personal use

             compressed. NOTE - you need !SparkFS to use this

             Computer Concepts Compression Filing System. Once

             features. Needs Filer 1.64.
             DeskPatch-1 and Deskpatch-2 are included. I'm told that
             Deskpatch-1 works on RiscOS 3 but it wipes out the ADFS
             file icons on my A5000, however Deskpatch-2 doesn't.

             named directory sprites, etc.

             spritefile to the IconSprtz icon and it's added to the

             sprite itself and its position can be changed

  Database

AddressBk  = A rather old, non desktop, address book database by Alex
             Hopkins. However it's easy to use and has an 'Arthur
             style' Wimp interface. Not the most up to date available
             but younger users in particular might find it preferable
             to more complex programs
!AddressD  = 2.01 A desktop address book from Alex Hopkins. This
             one's quite nice and has decent instructions
!Addresses = 1.25 by Neil Walker and can sort on various fields
!Address_1 = 1.02 Desktop address book database
!Address_2 = 0.53 Straightforward desktop address database.
!Albums    = Catalogue for your records

             databases.
Birdlog    = A twitchers database
!CardBank  = 1.02 Useful database. Modified to work with RO3 and
             filing systems other than ADFS
!CardIndex = 2.20 Desktop database. Much improved version. Now works
             properly under RO3 and better than many of the other PD
             desktop databases available
!CDindex   = Catalogue for your CD's
!CDtracker : 2.21 Comprehensive database for your CD's. Not only does
             it allow you to catalogue your CD (or tape) collection,
             with full search facilities, it can also (given suitable
             hardware) play them as well. Comes complete with a huge
             ready made database. Can import data from similar
             programs (including the popular !CDIndex and !Cassette)
!Contents  - The Author describes this as an 'item location management
             utility', ie. it keeps track of things. A bit difficult
             to explain briefly so try it and decide for yourself.
!Database  = Non desktop name and address database
!DataBase  = 2.60 Very nice desktop database by Raffaele Ferrigno. All
             the usual features and with three example databases. Can
             work with CSV files and the data files are (more or less)
             plain text so you can actually alter them with a text
             editor if you wish
!DataDes   = Advantage of this is that the database format is very
             flexible and the files are plain text
!DataSuite = Not an application but a resource for use with the
             DataSuite system. It provides additional facilities for
             use with the DataVox system
!DialCode  = Lets you search for the place name if you know the
             dialling code and visa versa.
!DiscIndex = 1.02 A rather nice disc cataloguing program from Neil
             Carson. Complete with C source code
!DiscTrack : 1.00 Another good disc catalogue program from Ainsley
             Pereira. Has good search facilities to help you find
             files in the resulting disc database
!DrawCat   = 1.10 From Anton Mans, this lets you create a printed
             'catalogue' of a collection of Drawfiles
!EasiBase  = 1.01 Straightforward desktop database with a few nice
             features. All the usual database functions. Fields can be
             text, integer, FP or date. Cards are designed using a
             'FormED' type editor so you can make them just the way
             you want them. Has simple graph plotting feature.
!Ejones    ^ A rather slow but pretty name and address database by
             M.O'Brien and J.Pullen
!Family_1  = A simple 'family tree' program from David Breakwell. Not
             particularly sophisticated, but lets you input the data
             for each member in a standard database type format and it
             can then produce a Drawfile of the whole or part of the
             tree. Comes with two examples, one of which is a family
             tree of the various Acorn computers
!Family_2 ^: 2.11 Nice geneology program from Denis Howe. Quite a
             comprehensive program. the whole 'tree' is shown on a
             desktop window and clicking on any name opens another
             window showing notes on that person. Various print and
             display options. Looks very easy to use. Can accept data
             in GEDCOM format. Comes with an example tree and some
             additional tools for handling GEDCOM files
!Finder    = 1.10 Program to 'find' things in data files. In practice
             it's a sort of 'shell' database that can work with text-
             based files. Several example files are provided including
             national vehicle number plates, international dialling
             codes, post codes etc. Since the files are text based you
             can make your own, which is the main idea
!IdentiKey = 2.10 A 'tree' type database which allows groups of items
             to be catagorised
!Library   = A simple non-desktop library catalogue program
!Maxfile   = 4.41 This program by Chris Wragg was originally written
             to run on the BBC computer but don't be put off by this
             as it has been extensively updated for the Archimedes.
             It's not a desktop program, but has all the normal
             database functions, sort, indexes, sub-files, etc. and is
             extremely easy to use. Because of this it's also ideal
             for use in education or for younger users.
!MF->Edit  = Converts files in Beebugs Masterfile format to plain text
!Movie     = 1.06 This was previously on B258 but it has grown too big
             for that disc. It is a large database of film info,
             including actors, directors, writers, and other stuff. The
             actual program is fairly crude but the data is all plain
             text files so you can easily add to it. If you are
             interested in films it's a must
!Multifile = 1.18 A straightforward database 'ported' from the
             BBC/Master so it's non desktop and uses Mode 7 menus.
             However it's easy to use and comes with good instructions
!MusicCat  = A catalogue system for your records
!PhoneDir  = 1.06 From Jason O'Broin, lets you find an STD coder from
             an area or visa versa
!Planner   - Creates an A4 year planner as a Draw file ready for
             printing
!QicAddres ^ 1.01 Useful utility by R.Lytton to search a database for
             an address and 'type' it at the cursor
!RealCount ^ From Sergio Moesi, another program to give a true count
             of disc space taken by file(s).
!RollerDex = Another desktop database. This might be quite good but
             the trouble is that the Author (Richard Peach) is one of
             those strange people who think that you shouldn't give
             proper manuals with a Shareware program until the user
             registers. As a result you are going to find it difficult
             to evaluate the program and so probably won't register. I
             find this annoying because it will probably result in
             another person saying 'Nobody's registered so Shareware
             doesn't work'
!SectCopy  ~ A disc image copier (800K and 640K only) which will skip
             over any defective sectors. Main use is to let you
             recover as much data as possible from a damaged disc.
             Files will contain garbage where the defective sectors
             were but for some types of file (eg. text) this could be
             less serious than losing all the data
!Simple    = Simple desktop database. No instructions and the program
             is 'written' in Norwegian or something similar but very
             easy to use so you shouldn't have problems
SolidDrag  ^ By Paul Wilkinson, this is for people who prefer solid
             rather than transparent icon drags on their Risc PC. It
             intercepts calls to DragASprite and forces solid drags.
!Sounds    = 1.02 Database for your record collection
SpeclCase  ^ 0.04 A Module which tries to display filenames in DOSFS
             and CDFS windows with 'normal' filenames instead of all
             upper case
!SpinDown  ^ By Andrew Berry, spins down a hard disc on drives which
             support it. You are advised NOT to do this with 3.5"
             drives as modern drives are not designed to be stopped
             and repeated starting and stopping can seriously shorten
             their life.
!STDfinder = From Julian Bristow, lets you find out the town from its
             STD code. As the data is in the form of a text file it's
             easy to edit/add codes. Comes with C source.
!StockCtrl = 1.14 Stock control system by Stuart Ford. Up to 500
             records per file with search and print functions.
!SymLinks  ^ Creates 'symbolic links' so that files and applications
             on your hard disc can appear to be in more than one place
!Telephone = Telephone number database
!TexBase   = A port of a BBC program so non desktop. It's a sort of
             text database. It enables you to 'file' freeform text
             organised in pages and carry out various searches etc
             upon them. Contains a simple editor to create the data
!VideoBase = 1.51 Database for video tapes. Improved version with
             better report generation and more output options plus
             keyboard shortcuts.
Powerbase  = The most comprehensive and powerful Shareware database for
             the Archimedes. Has just about every feature you could
             need. Report generation, mail merge with Impression via
             Impulse, import/export CSV and can even incorporate sprites
             into databases. Latest version can keep a 'log' of changes
             made plus other improvements and bug fixes. Comes with
             several example databases. Latest version has a 'quick
             tutorial' based on a simple name/address database to help
             new users. Can mow handle mail-merge with Ovation. Now
             Impression Publisher/Style compatible.

  DeskUtils

AddApps    : 1.60 By Ron Clarke.  lets you add applications to the
             Resources Filer. There are several of these but this
             appears to be the best so far
!AppDock2  = 2.41 Neat utility from Martin Wuerthner similar to the
             one provided with NeXT systems. Puts a 'border' of
             buttons around two sides of the screen and these can have
             application icons on them. Clicking a button runs that
             app. Neater than the backdrop as the buttons are smaller
             and you can bring it to the front with a keypress.
!ArmState  = Replaces the Acorn icon at the rh end of the icon bar and
             displays the amount of free memory and state of the cache
             on ARM 3 machines.
!Autoscrol = 1.00 Automatic window scroller. If you move the pointer
             near the edge of a scrollable window and click the window
             will scroll.
!Backicon  : 1.00 From Sam Kington this adds some functions to the
             Back icon. Clicking ADJUST brings the window to the
             front, and SHIFT-ADJUST, SHIFT-SELECT move it up and down
             the window stack one place
!BlakHole2 = 3.34 Superior desktop dustbin with an animation on the
             icon bar. Lots of other features including file find, RMA
             utilities, etc.
BootA      = A multi purpose 'front end' for non wimp programs.
             Enables them to behave like proper Risc-OS applications
             Comes with a variety of sample apps, eg. FileInf,
             SetType, Lock, Unlock, change LF to CRLF and visa versa,
             convert 1WP to text and visa versa, etc.
!Calenary  = Extremely good desktop diary and Calendar from Ian Palmer
!Caret     ^ 1.02 As well as making the caret flash, if you click on
             the !Caret icon it forces the window with input focus to
             the front and puts the mouse pointer over the caret so yu
             can find it. Useful if you are still struggling with
             !Edit or !DeskEdit
!CaretUtil = Nice program from Peter Gaunt to flash and find the
             caret, etc.
!ClipBoard - 1.06 Copies the contents of one writable icon to another
!CloseUp   = Opens a window that shows a magnified version of wherever
             the pointer is. Useful with !Paint when working on a
             large sprite as you don't need to 'zoom' the whole window
Config+    : A program from Sam Kington which adds various other
             options to the standard !Configure program
!CoolSwtch : 1.05 Lets you switch between tasks with ALT-TAB rather
             like Windows
!CtrlBox   ^ A 'desktop toolbox' by Dave Thomas which gives keyboard
             shortcuts for many common operations.
!Cycle     = From Stephen Burke, this lets you 'cycle' through the
             window stack with a keypress, bringing the bottom window
             to the top
!DeskDump  = 1.00 Grabs desktop screen as a sprite
!Diary     = 1.00 Quite nice desktop diary from Nic Regan
Dir2Res    ^ By Mark Collier, lets you transfer directories to the
             Resource Filer
!DoodlePad = Provides a 'writeable' backdrop on which you can 'doodle'
             with the mouse. Unfortunately it's a Mode 12 sized 'pad'
             so there's a gap around the sides in other modes
!DragIcons : Another app to enable solid drags
!Examine   = Best desktop 'magnifier' I've seen. Has a variable zoom
             which can also work in reverse.
!FastDesk  = A very simple idea. The program can be made to 'remember'
             all the 'iconsprites' so that they can all be loaded in
             one go. This saves the delays when a directory containing
             applications is opened for the first time and the filer
             loads all the sprites.
!FlashCar  ^ Another one of those apps to flash the caret.
!FreeK     ^ Shows free memory, time and date in a neat little window
             at the top RH side of the screen or on the iconbar
!FreeMemo  = Sits on the icon bar and tells you how much free memory
             you have left.
!FreeMem   = 1.05 Another one of those little 'free memory' icons
!FreeRAM   = shows you how much RAM you've got left
!Grabber   = Grabs a desktop window as a sprite
!HourExt   : 1.10 From Sam Kington this adjusts the Hourglass colours
             if the palette changes
IClear     = Icon Clear. This is supposed to make it easier to delete
             all the text in a writeable icon. Personally I've never
             had any difficulty pressing CTRL-U, but it does have the
             advantage that if you change your mind you can restore
             the original
!IconCLI   - Lets you issue *commands from the Icon bar
!Indicator = CPU usage indicator with a meter display on the icon bar
!InfoBar   = Module which displays date, time, free memory, etc at the
             left hand end of the icon bar above the drive icons so it
             doesn't use up any screen space
!Journal   : Desktop diary from Robert Seago
!KFree     ^ yet another one of those little apps to tell you how much
             free RAm you have. This one's by Richard Sage
!Kysmet    = 0.82 This is meant to move drive icons to a 'stack' at
             the left hand side of the screen instead of spreading
             them out along the icon bar plus various other
             enhancements. However it doesn't scan filing systems
             automatically or return things to their proper state when
             you quit. The manual is written in incomprehensible
             gobbledegook so it's almost impossible to make any sense
             of it. I therefore leave it to you to decide if it's
             worth the trouble of trying to work out how to use it.
!Larger    - 1.36 Adds a number of useful features to the desktop
LimitF12   ^ Repeated on this disc, stops use of the F12 key so no-one
             can get access to the CLI or open a TaskWindow
!Mace      = 1.9 Module Area and CLI Front End. Provides a Wimp front
             end for the CLI
!Magnify   = 0.51 Nice Desktop magnifier. Written by SICK so, as
             usual, the instructions are written in gobbledegook but
             it's intuitive to use so you don't have to read them
!MoreIBar  = More Icon Bar from Sam Kington. This gives you a 'second'
             icon bar which is a small, scrollable, vertical window in
             the bottom left hand corner of the screen. It isn't a
             'real' icon bar, of course, and doesn't behave exactly
             like one, but it does save you having to scroll the real
             icon bar if you have a lot of tasks loaded
!MoveWindo * When you hold down SHIFT+CTRL you can move a window by
             clicking and dragging anywhere in it
!MultiScrn ^ Utility from Michael Ellis to extend the desktop. The RO3
             desktop lets you move windows outside the visible area.
             This prog lets you have several 'views' of the desktop,
             some of which can be of this 'outside' part
NoError    ^ A module that automatically removes an error message from
             the screen after five seconds to save you wearing
             yourself out pressing RETURN or clicking on OK
!NoteBook  = A very simple desktop notepad
!NoteBook  = A useful desktop notepad from R.Peach
!NotePad   = 1.30 The first desktop notepad I've seen that's actually
             worth using. By Steve Tudway and Andy Piper
!NotePad   = Another, quite nice, desktop notepad from Stuart Marshall
!Opener    = Just opens directories which are dragged to its icon. I
             couldn't think of any reason for including this (why not
             just hold down SHIFT if it's an application?) until
             someone pointed out to me that some disabled people have
             trouble with this, so here it is!
!Palette   : 1.45 Much improved version of Acorn's Palette utility
             from James Ponder witj lots of extra features - shows the
             current Mode number, contrast and brightness controls, up
             to 16 palettes available, modes can be selected with
             hotkeys, screensaver, etc.
!PhonNotes ^ A very simple program from Ben Carter to help you do what
             it says, make a quick note when you are on the phone
!Plan94    = Rather nice desktop year planner/diary. The whole year is
             displayed in a single window
!Post-It   ^ A simple desktop memo, rather like a post-it note stuck
             on your monitor
!PrintFile = Opens a 'Printer' window
!ProgCalc  = 1.01 Simple programmable calculator
!PseudoApp - 1.00 Allows you to have a 'pseudo application' in a
             directory which, when you click on it, runs the 'real'
             app which can be somewhere else
!QuickCLI  - 1.00 For people who can't bear to let go of the mouse for
             even a second - click on the icon to get the CLI instead
             of pressing F12. (No - I don't know why!)
!ReadFile  = Opens a VDU window. Useful if you have !Edit loaded but
             want to see what text will look like in a Command window
!ReDraw    = Main use is to force a screen redraw if the system
             sprites change for any reason, but it can also perform an
             'iconsprites' command if you drag a spritefile to it
ReduceDrag : 1.10 From Oliver Betts, lets you cancel a Wimp Drag using
             the Escape key. Includes source code in Basic Assembler
             so you can modify it.
!Reminder  = Just reminds you at intervals to save your work 'just in
             case'. Of course, commercial programs don't inexplicably
             crash do they (!), so you don't need this...
!Resizer   : Useful utility from Nick Jarman to add Resize icons to
             every corner of a window so you can expand/contract it in
             any direction instead of just from the bottom RH corner.
!Resources : From J.Robbins, adds apps to the Resources filing system
!ResROM    : A similar program to add apps to the Resource filing
             system from Ian Jeffray
!Saviour   = 1.20 More sophisticated 'auto save'. This simulates
             pressing the F3 key at predefined intervals. As this is
             the 'Save' key in many desktop apps it will either save
             automatically or open the 'Save' window to remind you
!Scicalc   = 1.06c Good calculator with all the usual scientific
             functions including sin, cos, tan, log, root, not, and,
             or, eor plus expression evaluation using brackets.
!ShortCuts ^ 1.05 Multi-purpose desktop utility from Jon Henning
             Bergane. Lots of features, key shortcuts (including ALT
             keys), mode selector, play Tarcker/DS tunes, notepad,
             mouse speed, sound on/off, and others
!Shutdown+ : 1.40 An enhancement of the standard Shutdown sequence but
             it offers the option of a complete re-boot instead of
             just a restart.
!SmallTask : An alternative Task Window from Thomas Newcomb that sends
             its output to a sprite instead of a textfile so most VDU
             commands work.
!SysBeep   = 1.28 Lets you set the pitch, duration and volume of the
             'beep' sound
TaskBASIC  ^ This sets a new filetype for Basic programs which will
             run them in a Taskwindow when you double-click on them
!TaskFront ^ Sits on the icon bar and Runs programs dragged to it in a
             Task Window, so you can use all those old utilities
             without having to set directories etc. Very handy
!TskMaster = 1.32  Several facilities including '*' commands from
             within the desktop, start tasks from menu, open
             directories, speaker on/off, free memory display,
             save/restore CMOS RAM, ARM 3 cache control, and can act
             as a desktop 'front end' for Squash.
!VMode     - 1.3 Replacement for !Edit as a taskwindow driver
!WinCtrl   = 1.03 Lets you move and scroll windows that don't have
             scroll bars or resize icons etc.
!Windower  ^ From Felix Andrew this lets you move windows up and down
             the stack, resize them, close them, etc. by using various
             keys instead of the mouse
!WinTool   = Various features to control windows with the keyboard so
             that window order can be changed.
!Xhelp     ^ A simple 'hypertext' reader from Dirk-Willem van Gulik.
             It's not the best I've sen but it is fairly easy to use
             and also simple to write your own texts. this might be
             useful in schools or similar environments for creating
             'help' texts for programs etc.

  DeskUtils.Keyboard

!AllChars  = 0.20 Another 'Chars' style utility. Main advantage of
             this one is that it covers the entire character set
             including codes 0-31 so it's useful for inserting control
             codes into text as well as characters 128-255
!ALT-Keys  = Re-installs the International Keyboard nodule if it has
             been unplugged.
!ButtonBar = Places a window on the screen with 'buttons' which, when
             clicked on, simulate a keypress. You can define these
             buttons to suit any application. Samples are provided for
             Edit and Impression but you can easily make your own.
!DesKeys   ^ Just puts a large window on screen which represents the
             keyboard. Clicking on a 'key' in this has the same effect
             as pressing the key. Unfortunately it misses out the
             function keys and numeric keypad but it would probably be
             very useful for someone who was handicapped as it would
             enable them to 'type' using the mouse. Works on RiscPC
             but assumes a 'standard' Acorn keyboard layout
!DrawStrip = Produces Draw files of keystrips. Comes with several
             keystrips but you can easily make your own. Some BBC ROM
             applications also come with keystrips produced with this.
!FuncKeys  = A rather nice function key strip from Simon Hatliff which
             installs itself just above the icon bar. Includes
             definitions for many popular apps (Artworks, Draw, Draw+,
             Edit, Impression, Poster, etc.) and you can easily write
             your own for others
!German    - Allows the German accented characters to be entered into
             the keyboard buffer by clicking on them in a small
             window. You could use !Chars but this is much neater
!Internat  - Acorn International Keyboard Handler
!KbdInfo   = Draws a picture of the keyboard and gives info about
             INKEY and internal key numbers. Easier than looking up
             the manual
!Keys      = 1.1 Lets the Fkeys issue commands to the OS while
             operating within RiscOS
!KeySpeak  = Each key 'speaks' its name when pressed
!KeyWindow = 1.52 On screen function keystrip. Useful if you don't
             have a keystrip holders but does more than that. You
             'press' keys by clicking on them with the mouse and it
             keeps track of up to 32 keystrips, opening and closing
             them automatically as you load, use and quit applications
!Macros    = Hotkey keyboard macro program from Paul Clifford. Up to
             20 definable macros, each with up to 180 characters.
!MathChars = Useful program by Hugo Mills which is similar to !Chars
             except that it only displays the 'maths' characters in a
             given font so you don't need to have a window big enough
             to display all the characters.
!Quote     : Intercepts keypresses and substitues other characters.
             It's main purpose, as the name implies, it to try to
             'pair' quotation marks, etc.
!RapidKeys = Puts a button bar representing the function keys down the
             RH side of the screen. The keys display the functions
             performed in the current application and several are
             provided. As the definition files are plain text you can
             easily make your own. 'Pressing' the key with the mouse
             is equivalent to pressing the actual function key
!Se_Macros = Program from Mike Barnes to insert often repeated phrases
             into the keyboard buffer with a mouse click
!ShiftKeys ^ Lets you 'press' the Shift, Alt and Ctrl keys by clicking
             on buttons. Makes mouse operations which need
             simultaneous keypresses easier for disabled users.
!Smilies   = 1.03 Inserts those little strings into keyboard.
!Strip     = For people whose fingers are permanently hooked into
             mouse-clutching shape lets you simulate pressing function
             keys etc. by clicking on a keystrip above the icon bar
!WordEnter = 1.13 Lets you enter frequently used words or phrases into
             the keyboard buffer by clicking on a menu
!YouWhat2  ^ No, I don't know why it's called that, but people who use
             'Help' file readers instead of putting the instructions
             in a nice text file can't be expected to be rational.
             This inserts messages into the keyboard buffer and was
             intended to be use to insert a 'signing off' message with
             a modem, but you could probably find other uses for it
!XChars    ^ By far the nicest !Chars substitue I've seen by Martin
             Wurthner.
!ZoomChars ^ Another variation on the !Chars theme from Neil Walker

  DeskUtils.Mouse

!AutoMouse - Mouse movements via the cursor keys
!Coord     = 1.00 Display mouse coordinates in a small window
!Cursor    = Move the mouse pointer with the keyboard and control the
             pointer shape.
|CursCtrl  = Another app to control the mouse via the cursor keys.
!Gambara   = Opens a window to show mouse pointer position, state of
             mouse buttons, window under the pointer, etc.
Lefty      = A Module that I wrote to reverse the action of the Left
             and Right mouse buttons (Select and Adjust). Intended for
             left-handed people who prefer to have a left-handed mouse
!MChange   = 1.10 Another mouse speed utility from John Reed. Nice and
             easy to use and you can type any speed, so it's not just
             limited to 1-5
!Mickey    = Another utility to display the mouse x/y co-ordinated,
             but the best feature is its ability to set the 'origin'
             so it can display the pointer position relative to any
             point you choose rather than the absolute position
!Mileage   = Shows the distance your mouse has travelled
!Mouse     = Sets mouse speed from a desktop window. Big advantage is
             that it can set the horizontal and vertical steps
             separately, very useful for sprite or template editing.
!MouseCtrl = Mouse speed control from the desktop
!MouseII   : 2.00 Much improved version of Andrew Heckfords Mouse
             program. Lets you set mouse step, pointer wrap, cursor
             control, and can switch to a large brightly coloured
             pointer for the 'visually challenged'
!Mousky    ^ Nice multi-font 'Chars' type app from Michiel van Schaik
!MouseOff  = From Martyn Rose, lets you move the mouse off the screen.
             As with RO3 you can move windows off screen this lets you
             get to the scrollbars and buttons which might otherwise
             be just out of reach.
!MouseStep = 2.00 Change mouse step from the desktop
!Mousey    = Displays X-Y co-ordinates of the mouse pointer
!MouSpeed  = 1.10 Controls of the speed of the mouse using hotkeys,
             very useful as it doesn't appear on the icon bar and you
             don't have to 'click' on anything to change speed. The
             only (minor) problem is that it uses ALT+(number) to
             switch speeds. With RO2 this was OK but RO3 assigns
             characters to these keys. However, using
             CTRL+ALT+(number) solves the problem!
!PCMouse   ^ By Michael Kircher, a Module that let's you use a PC
             style serial mouse
!PtrWrap   = 'Wrap around' for the mouse pointer. As it moves off the
             screen on one side it reappears on the other.
!Rat       = Invaluable utility from Michael Coe to toggle the
             mousestep between two user-configurable rates. As the
             rates aren't limited to the !Configure options of 1 to 5
             this lets me switch between a slow rate for !Paint and
             !Templed and my usual 8, which I can't do with !Configure
!Scaler    = As you move the mouse faster so the amount the pointer
             moves increases. Very useful for fine work
!SerialMse = 2.00 A module from Stuart Tyrrell which lets you use a PC
             style serial mouse.
!SlowPtr   = Another mousestep utility which slows down the mouse when
             you hold down SELECT and ADJUST. Useful for dragging
             objects in some applications but you'll have to edit the
             program to set the 'fast' speed to the one you prefer as
             there's no external configuration
!Warfarin  = 1.10 Emulates the mouse with the cursor keys or other
             keys defined by the user. Very useful.
!Wrap      = Lets the mouse pointer 'wrap around' like the Mac. so
             that when it moves off one edge of the screen it
             reappears on the other.

  DiscUtils

!2048      ^ 1.10 Counts the true disc space used by a directory
             taking into acount the directory itself and the sector
             size of the disc
!ACopy     - 1.40 Disc copier
!ADFSExtra2: 2.27 Improved version of ADFSExtra with additional
             facilities requiring RO3
!ADFS_Aid  = A skeleton ADFS filing system that can let you save your
             work if the ADFS crashes
!All       ^ 0.45 Multi-purpose utility. Lock/unlock files, trash,
             file info, DOS map, etc.
!BlockSize ^ 1.12 Utility by Darren Salt which counts the actual disc
             space used by by files/directories taking into account
             the sector size/file allocation unit of the disc.
!CD_Type   ^ By Martin Sperl, modified by Mike Martin, this patches
             CDFS to let it show lots more DOS files as the equivalent
             Acorn filetypes
!Chopper   ^ 0.02 A program I wrote to 'chop up' large files so they
             can be put onto floppy discs and then joined up again.
             Very easy to use. Lots of people have asked for something
             to do this, so here it is. Now includes a cut-down
             program !Joiner which can be distributed with split files
             and SPLIT.EXE and SPLICE.EXE to do the same thing on a PC
             so that vry large files can easily be transported between
             PC and Archimedes   *** updated June 96 ***
!ClearDisc ^ Wipes out any deleted files on a floppy disc so they
             can't be recovered
!Clone     = 3.00 Protected disc copier. Will only copy discs with
             'simple' protection
!CopyCalc  = Calculates number of discs you need to backup a hard disc
!CopyOpts  ^ Speeds up moving files on the same disc by renaming them
             instead of copying/deleteing whenever possible
!Counter   = Shows both the size of a file or application and the
             amount of space it actually takes on a disc. You can save
             a list of data for a disc as a text file
!DeepCopy2 = Disc copier
!DeskZoom  = 1.21 Amalgamates the !Boot files of a disc into a single
             file to speed up filer disc access
Direction  : Displays the current Path before the CLI '*' prompt like
             the 'prompt $P$G' command used in DOS. Seems to work on
             all the filing systems I've tried it on
!Dirkiller - Lets you lock/unlock/wipe directories
!DirSet    = Sets the CSD to the last directory used
!DirStack  ^ Remembers the last fifteen directories that were opened
             and lets you select them from a menu. Saves a lot of work
             if you close a window and then need it again.
!Disable   = 1.00 Lets you disable all Delete/Wipe commands so that
             files can't be accidentally deleted.
!DiscBlank ^ Conceals the contents of an 800K floppy by hiding the
             catalogue and replacing it with a dummy. This can make
             the disc look empty. When you want to use it the program
             will restore the proper catalogue
!DiscEdit  + Disc sector editor, works on MSDos discs too
!DiscEdit  ^ By Chris Poole, the first good Desktop Shareware disc
             sector editor that works on all floppy disc types and all
             filing systems, including large format hard discs. If you
             want a 'dedicated' editor with lots of features rather
             than a quick look using Zap this is the best I've seen.
             But it doesn't stop at being just a good sector editor.
             It also has tools to help with deleted file recovery,
             bad directory repair, map repair, and various diagnostic
             utilities. If you have a copy of !Zap then run it before
             you use this program as it can make use of the ZapRedraw
             module for fast screen update.
             This may not do everything that fsck does but it's a
             *lot* easier to use and is a proper, unrestricted,
             Shareware application (don't forget to send your
             registration fee!).
!DiscEdit2 = Non desktop disc sector editor from Ting Zwei Kuei. Seems
             to be based on Adrian Look's 'DiscEdit' but works with hi
             density discs (though not on the Risc PC).
!DiscListr ^ Fairly crude program to create a CSV file of the contents
             of a series of floppy discs.
!DiscLook  ^ Sits on the icon bar and acts like any other drive icon.
             By selecting from its menu you can transform it into the
             equivalent of any drive icon. The only practical use I
             can think of for it would be if you have lots of drives
             and the ones on the left vanish off screen when you have
             several apps loaded. The DiscLook icon could then
             substitute for one lost off screen
!DiscScan  ^ Another program to create a database of the contents of
             floppy discs.
!DiscInfo  - 1.11 Extensive disc information
!DiscMedic = 0.92 Good desktop disc sector editor from Tim Browse.
             Seems to work OK on all well behaved filing systems that
             I've tried it with, although it did seem to get a little
             confused on my A5000 with SCSI, ADFS and IDEFS hard discs
!DiscSpace = Displays a graphical indication of disc usage showing the
             amount of disc space used by each directory
!DiskClone - RM disc copier
!DiskTree  = Program to distplay a simple 'tree' of a disc's
             structure. Only works on currently logged drive and there
             doesn't seem to be any way to save the data to disc
!EaziCopy  = 1.0 Makes multiple copies of unprotected discs
!FastMove  = Very good application by Felix Andrew to speed up
             'moving' files from one directory to another. It's a
             module so it works automatically in the background.
!FCoreProt = By Andrew heckford, dismounts a disc if you close it's
             filer window with the Menu button. Saves crashing
             Filecore with RO2
!FileAid   = 1.06 A program with various useful functions including a
             dustbin, screensaver, and assorted file operations like
             access, set CSD, date stamp, set type
FilerFix   ~ For RO 3.1 filer this let's you hit the CTRL key AFTER
             you've opened a filer window to stop reading all those
             !Boot files
!Finder    = A directory opener/startup application by Guido Steiner.
             Unfortunately all the instructions are in German so if
             anyone would care to send me a translation....
FlopFS     ^ By Hugo Feinnes, this is an unsupported filing system for
             Floptical drives. Includes formatting software.
!FreeDisc  = Another app to show free space on the current drive on
             the icon bar.
!FreeIcon  = Constantly shows amount of free space on the disc in
             drive :0
!FreeSp200 = Just show the amount of free space on ADFS::4
fsck       = fsck will attempt to fix the map and directory tree and
             re-link the files. Can also give extensive data about a
             disc. Also includes 'eliminate' which will delete the
             actual file without removing the details from the map.
             Absolutely invaluable if you have a broken directory or
             some other defect on a disc (hard or floppy). If this
             happens not only can you not 'get into' the directory you
             can't even delete it!. Although eliminate doesn't fix the
             fault it does 'give back' the disc space used even if
             fsck can't fix the problem.
             These programs are CLI driven and should be used with
             caution. I used them to repair two 'bad directories' on my
             hard disc without problems but be careful. Anyone who has
             a hard disc should not be without this.
Fudge      = Rather useful Module from an anonymous Author. Allows
             apps to look as if they are being run from ADFS::0 even
             though they are really on your hard disc. Lets you run
             lots of games and other protected software from a hard
             disc which would normally only run from floppy. Might
             also work with some third party hi density drives which
             often won't run protected software
!HDSpeed_1 = Simple but effective program to asses HD speed. Only
             really useful for comparisons but works on any filing
             system (even works with floppies)
!HDspeed_2 = 1.10 The definitive hard disc speed test program (but
             then I would say that, wouldn't I). This will really find
             out how good you hard disc/interface is
!Helios    ^ 2.00 Task launcher/* command executor from Kenny Guy
!LinkFS    ^ An image filing system that redirects all calls made to
             it to the 'real' filing system, thereby allowing you to
             have files or applications apparently together while
             actually on different drives
!Links     = Program from Brian Brunswick to set up Unix style 'soft
             links' on your disc. These are 'pointers' to an object
             stored elsewhere so they 'look' like the actual object
             and can make it appear that you have multiple copies of
             some utilities without the need to actually do so.
!LongFiles : 0.10 From Jason Tribbeck, this will let you have up to
             55 character filenames on almost any filing system. I've
             only tried this briefly but is seems to work OK, but do
             read the instructions carefully first. You also really
             need a hard disc so that the filename 'cache' can be
             saved before you shut down
MagFS      ^ Again by Hugo Feinnes, this is a filing system for
             magneto-optical drives. Includes formatting software. As
             it is designed to work with almost any SCSI device it
             will operate with Syquest or fixed drives and has the
             additional advantage of allowing you to have more than
             four drives on the SCSI bus.
!Memorizer = 1.00 Very useful utility from Ben Summers which can
             'remember' what directories you've been using so you can
             re-open then from a menu instead of having to start again
             right from the '$' directory because you've just closed
             the one you wanted...
!MoveFiles ^ Module from Ben Gershon that tries to move files rather
             than copy/delete whenever possible and also prevents
             directories from being recursively copied into themselves
!Multiback - Makes multiple copies of a disc
!OakSCSI   = 1.10 A Wimp inteface to the Oak SCSI card so you don't
             have to use the CLI to set the various parameters. As it
             seems to translate the options into '*' commands it
             should be fairly robust and work with most versions.
!OpenDir   = Opens a directory if you drag it to the !OpenDir icon.
             Would probably be very useful to anyone who is disabled
             and has difficulty opening application directories ie.
             using the mouse while holding the SHIFT key.
!Options   = Lets you change the copy options from a menu
!Organize  ^ Directory opener - drag a directory to the icon to add it
             to the menu
!OverFiler = This works with most Filecore based systems and lets you
             copy/move files and the drive icon can display the name
             of the disc in the drive. Takes a bit of fiddling to set
             up (you need to find out the icon number of the drive
             icon) but most people will only need to do this once.
             (Unfortunately not me, I change hard drives more often
             than some people change their socks!)
!Partition = 3.09 Replacement for Acorns scsifs that allows several
             partitions as different drives. With assembler source so
             you could modify it for alternative scsi filing systems.
!ProCopy   ^ 2.04  At last! The long awaited release of the best
             multiple disc copier. Will do almost everything you want
             to make lots of copies of a disc. Can format, verify,
             save disc images to your hard disc, operate in single
             tasking or background modes, load disc images from a
             menu, etc. Works with Acorn 640K, 800K or 1.6mb and DOS
             720K and 1.44Mb. If you are running a club or user group
             and can't afford a £2000+ autocopier this not merely
             useful, it's absolutely essential
!Q-Format  = Not a quick formatter', it just *wipes the disc, which is
             faster. However it's still a lot slower than backing up a
             blank disc but I was asked for it so....
!QuickDir  : 1.00 Speeds up navigation about hard discs by allowing
             you to move about the directory tree without needing to
             open a filer window on each intermediate directory.
!RAMcram   = 2.20 Lets you change the size of the RAM disk while it
             has files on it. Invaluable
!RamDisc²  = 1.01 Potential life-saver from James Aylett. When you
             shut down this copies the contents of the RAM disc to a
             safe place on your hard disc, when you next boot up it
             will put it all back again, so (provided you always shut
             dowm properly) you don't loose the contents of the RAM
             disc when you switch off. If, like me, you use a RAM disc
             as temporary storage and for other odds and ends and
             sometime switch off without remembering to save it.....
!RAMstore  ^ 1.01 By Andrew Berry, this saves the contents of your RAM
             disc when you shut down and reloads it when you boot. The
             disadvantage of this compared with RAMdisc² on B298 is
             that it takes up a place on the icon bar, on the other
             hand it does seem slightly better
!SetDir    = Sets and maintains the CSD
!SoftCorn  = Improved version of !Dup disc copier
!SoftLinks = Another program for creating soft links on your hard disc
             from Martin Wurther
!SysUtils  - 2.30
!Tiger     : 4.11 Useful program from Graham Crow. The name is derived
             from 'Big Cat', because its main use is to allow you to
             have a description of up to 110 characters (a whole line)
             which is displayed in a window by !Tiger. Particularly
             useful for displaying info about documents, letters, etc.
             I use an app like this on my PC and it saves a lot of
             browsing when looking for a particular letter.
!TurboCopy = A quick disc copier which also keeps a log of copies made
!TrueCopy  ^ Non desktop multi-format disc copier
!WhichDisc = Shows the name of the current floppy disc in a small
             window at the bottom left of the screen. This is re-read
             at a (configurable) interval ar you can set it so that it
             is only read when you choose.
!Wiper     = File/directory deleter

  DiscUtils.backup

!Backup    = 1.06 VERY simple program by Neil Walker to backup a
             section of a hard disc to floppies. As it only works with
             up to 10 discs it's only suitable for comparitively small
             amounts of data.
!Backup3   = Hard disc backup utility.
!Back_It   ^ Just copies a series of files/directories to a 'backup'
             directory. Ideal for keeping a record of the development
             of a program.
!ClicBack  = 2.79 Superb hard disc backup program from Steve Spry.
             Allows full, differential or incremental backups either
             to floppies or another hard disc (Syquest?). Lots of
             other features including data compression, partial
             restore, etc. It's Careware (£10 registration) and it is
             now unrestricted so you won't forget to register, will
             you?  As all proceeds go to the Cancer and Leukemia In
             Childhood Trust (hence the name) it's even less
             forgiveable than usual. Latest version has several bug
             fixes (now handles Image files correctly so will back up
             your PC partition) plus many new features inlcuding a
             'don't compress' list so it won't waste time trying to
             compress things like Archives.
!HardBack  ^ 1.11 Comprehensive Hard disc backup and restore from Theo
             Markettos
!HardCopy  ^ 2.02 A simple backup utility from Phil Norman
!HDBackup  - Another simple backup parogram
!HDBackup  ^ A hard disc backup program by Andreas Schubert. It makes
             use of Frank lancaster's tar to do the work and so can
             compress data
!Keeper    = Simple but versatile hard disc backup program from Serio
             Monesi. Can 'run' a selection of command files to make it
             easy to back up small parts of your hard disc frequently.
!LZWBackup ^ A very simple backup program by Ian Prideaux which uses
             John Kortink's LZW modules for compression
!Mycop     ^ Desktop bin that sits where you put it instead of on the
             icon bar
!ObjBackup = Backs up certain objects to floppy disc. Useful for
             making regular backups of 'changeable' files you are
             working on (documents, programs, artwork etc)
!TapeFS    = 1.09 A 'crude' filing system designed to drive a
             cartridge tape drive. Written for Acorn SCSI system but
             may work with others. 'Alpha test' and so not a finished
             product but the Author may make source code available to
             anyone interested in developing it further
tar        = Not a normal Tape Archiver but a general purpose
             archiving program. As it can archive to floppy discs and
             can split the archive over several discs it can be used
             for hard disc backup. Can compress if required. Lots of
             features. CLI driven so not a desktop program

  DiscUtils.Bins

!Bin       = Straightforward desktop dustbin
!BlakHole2 = 3.34 Superior desktop dustbin with an animation on the
             icon bar. Lots of other features including file find, RMA
             utilities, etc.
!Mycop     ^ Desktop bin that sits where you put it instead of on the
             icon bar
!Snglarity ^ What happens when a Black Hole gets smaller - a
             replacement for the popular Black Hole II for people who
             just want a small wastebin
SuperTrash = Quite nice desktop dustbin from Miles Carter
!Toilet    ^ Another bin. Makes a noise like a flushing toilet
!TrashCan  ^ 1.01 Nice bin from Stephen mansfield
!Trash     = Another bin
!TrashFS   - Another 'dustbin'. I'm told this works but I can't get it
             to operate properly with RO3 though it seems OK with RO2
!WasteBin  = Good desktop dustbin - no frills but works well

  DiscUtils.Bootup

!BackLoad  : Continues the !Boot sequence as a background task
!BootCtrl  = Lets you switch the !Boot application on your hard disc
             on and off.
!BootPass  = Useful App by Spiro Harvey to allow you to have several
             levels of boot sequence, each of which is protected by a
             password. Could be very useful in schools.
!DeskStart = A desktop 'startup' program that performs a similar
             function the the usual *desktop -<file>. Advantage is
             that it multi tasks so you don't get a 'orrible blank
             screen while things are loading and it displays a status
             window which tells you just what is happening.
FloppyBoot ^ 1.00 A utility from Raoul Sargent which allows hard disc
             users to boot from a floppy disc if there is one in the
             drive, rather like DOS. If there's no disc in drive :0 it
             boots as normal. Useful if you want to change your boot
             sequence for a particular application or for debugging
!MakeBoot  = A program from Disk Alstein to create and edit your
             startup sequence. Looks very easy to use for those who
             don't feel confident to write their own 'boot'
             application. Complete with instructions/messages in
             English, German and (I think!) Dutch.
!MultiBoot ^ By Phil Norman, lets you have lots of alternative Boot
             sequences by holding down different keys
!MultiObey = Lets you multitask Obey files. Particularly useful for
             Boot sequences or other long-winded tasks as it enables
             you to see what's going on
!QSetup    ^ Another program to give you a choice of boot sequences
!RAMstore  ^ 1.01 By Andrew Berry, this saves the contents of your RAM
             disc when you shut down and reloads it when you boot. The
             disadvantage of this compared with RAMdisc² on B298 is
             that it takes up a place on the icon bar, on the other
             hand it does seem slightly better
RPCBoot    ^ A user configurable !Boot replacement for the RiscPC
!Start     : 1.2 An application from Raffaele Ferrigno to start up
             tasks. ideally this should be run from the !Boot
             app on your hard disc.

  DiscUtils.Catalogue

!CataDir2  ^ 1.01 Creates a textfile of the contents of a directory
!Catalogue = 1.13 Produces a catalogue of your floppy disc collection.
             Unfortunately the instructions are all in German but the
             program 'text' is in English and it's easy to use
             although non desktop.
!DirList   - 1.03
!DirSpool  - Creates a text file of a directory listing
!DiscCat   = 3.10 Makes a catalogue of your discs.
!DiscIndex = 1.02 A rather nice disc cataloguing program from Neil
             Carson. Complete with C source code
!DiscTrack : 1.00 Another good disc catalogue program from Ainsley
             Pereira. Has good search facilities to help you find
             files in the resulting disc database
!DiskBase  = 0.65 Another floppy disc contents database. This one's
             quite good with lots of features including the ability to
             catalogue the contents of ArcFS/Spark archives
!DiskLib   = 2.0 Creates a Library database of your floppy disc
             collection by reading the data from the discs. Can print
             out lists of disc contents, etc.
!DiscListr ^ Fairly crude program to create a CSV file of the contents
             of a series of floppy discs.
!DiscScan  ^ Another program to create a database of the contents of
             floppy discs.
!FileCat   = 2.10 Produces a catalogue of your disc collection in CSV
             or plain text format ready for loading into a database
             (eg Pipedream, Powerbase etc) or WP.
!Indexer   = 1.00 Another disc catalogue program, produces a text file
             of the root directory of all your discs
!MultiCat  = A simple disc cataloguer which catalogues EVERY file on
             the disc with its full pathname

  DiscUtils.Foreign

!DFS       = A desktop DFS filer by Richard Averill. Possibly not so
             essential now but I know at least one person who's just
             traded in his faithful Model B for a Risc PC.
!DFSreader = 0.01 A filing system for DFS discs. Won't double step so
             if you've got 40 track discs you'll need a 40/80 switched
             drive. I've used this extensively and it works very well.
!DFSView   = Simple DFS disc viewer. There are better programs but if
             you just want to copy a few files from a DFS disc this
             will probably do
!DOSmapper ^ A very simple app to add DOS filetypes to DOSmap.
             Includes sprites for the files.
!MacHFS    = 1.04 Program to transfer files from Apple Mac discs.
             Only works Mac->Arc and only with 720K or 1.44Mb (if you
             have the hardware). Much improved from the earlier non-
             desktop version. It now uses a filer-like window although
             it doesn't work like a conventional filer, mainly because
             of the strange way that Mac discs are organised with
             'forks'. However it's a LOT cheaper than the alternatives
             and it will let you get the data off a Mac disc.
             Hopefully the Author will continue to improve it so that
             we will no longer be forced to pay the outrageous prices
             asked for the commercial products.
QL_Utils   - Read QL discs, convert screens, etc.
!Yadfs     = 2.5 Yet Another Disc Filing System to read DFS (BBC)
             discs by Chris Corbett. Can read/write Acorn or Watford
             (61 file catalogue) discs, 40 or 80m track, single or
             double density. Seems to be the best one yet.

  DiscUtils.Menus

!ATool     ^ Very nice Shareware application launcher from Anthony
             Plassaras. It puts a user configurable 'button bar' along
             the top of the screen. each 'button' has menus, and these
             can open directories, launch tasks, etc. Registration is
             a bit expensive, but then this is probably the best
             program of this type I have seen. Seems to work on
             everything, including Risc PC.
BootMenu   : As the name suggests, offers a choice of Boot sequences
!BootSuite ^ 2.11 A comprehensive utility by R.Chasmer which can be
             installed to a hard disc and enables several users to
             each have their own customised boot up procedure with a
             password. Can also keep a log. Lots of features and would
             probably be ideal for us in a business or school.
!CurlBack  ~ An alternative application launcher from William Waghorn.
             Whenever you put the mouse pointer in the TL corner of
             the screen a menu appears with your most commomly used
             files/applications
!DirCtrl   = Puts directories on the icon bar so you can open them by
             clicking on them. Each directory can have its 'options'
             set individually, so you can have directories containing
             applications showing large sprites, those with lots of
             files showing small sprites, etc. Each directory can be
             password protected, as can the application itself, so by
             'hiding' directories inside the !DirCtrl application you
             can protect them
!Director  ^ 0.11 Nice tool from Nick Craig-Wood which lets you create
             menus of commands and icons. Lots of features and worth
             trying, especially if you have a complex HD structure
!DirMenu   = 0.24  Useful app which, when you click MENU on the title
             bar of a filer window, displays a menu tree of the path
             of the window. This lets you 'move' back up the tree to
             any other directory without 'passing through' all the
             intermediate directories. Invaluable if you have a large
             hard disc with complex directory structures.
!DiscStore = 1.20 This is similar to the many HD application launchers
             except that it is designed to be used with floppy discs.
!DMen      ^ 1.65 DeskMenu from Ian Clark
!EaziEdit  = Another application menu/launcher
!Filer-    : This produces a menu tree of your hard disc when you
             click Menu on the backdrop. Various other functions to
             make it easier to move about on a hard disc.
!FishFS   ^= 3.00 A sort of directory-opener by Phil Norman. Puts
             icons on the icon bar which can be opened by clicking on
             them. Easy to customise
!Guest     = I quite like this. It lets you have lots of applications
             apparently installed on the icon bar, but they aren't
             really there, they are just 'ghosts', under control of
             !Guest. When you click on one of them (or drag a suitable
             file to it) !Guest will 'run' it just as if the program
             was installed. The advantage is that all those icons
             aren't using any RAM, so you can appear to have many apps
             installed without gobbling up huge chunks of memory
!IconDir   = 0.11 Opens directories, runs programs, etc rather like
             !Menon. If you have previously used !Menon try this, it's
             *much* better in almost every way.
!KwikLoad  = Application launcher
!Menon     = 2.06 The famous disc menu and task launcher. If you have
             a large hard disc with a complex directory structure then
             you probably need this
!MenuBar   ^ This is s superb new menuing system from Graham Crow.
             Similar (but suerior to) the commercial program Blinds.
             You can have lots of pull-down menus at the top of the
             screen and you can switch between complete sets of menus
             if you wish. Easy to set up and use and lots of options.
             Highly recommended and the best system I've seen.
!Star      - icon bar menu
!TinyObjs  = Lets you put all sorts of filing system 'objects' on the
             icon bar
!TreeMenHD : This provides a full hierachical menu of a hard disc. It
             has lots of features and seems very good, although the
             instructions are a bit vague on some points
!Usr_Sel   = 1.11 Another directory-opener file-selector from James
             Aylett. Not very sophisticated but quite ueful.

  DiscUtils.Protection

!Crypt     = 1.00 A file encryptor from Stephen Early that uses two
             separate passwords to encode a file
!Cypher   ^= 2.00 Useful file scrambler, quite useful if you want to
             keep your files safe from prying eyes
!DirLock   ^ Locks directories so you can't get into them from the
             desktop between specified times
!HDLock    = 2.00 Very good program by John Lageu to restrict access
             to parts of a hard disc. It's not absolutely secure but
             is primarily intended for use in schools to prevent
             students rummaging about where they shouldn't. I'm told
             it's also ideal for restricting younger brothers/sisters
Invisible  ^ Hides files by changing their sprites to a mask and
             giving them names consisting of just hard spaces
!Lcrypt    - 1.00 File encrypter
!Locked    = Simple app to lock harddisc until a password is entered
!Lockit    = Designed to make a piece of software useable on only one
             computer. If, like me, you believe that software
             protection is the last resort of the inept, then you will
             wonder what possible good it could be, but it could be
             useful to lock a program to a particular machine in a
             school and hence stop pupils 'borrowing' it
!MaSK      ^ This is a security device which will hide a file 'inside'
             an image or sound sample. Not only is the data very
             difficult to unscramble, as the original image/sample
             will still 'work' no-one will even know it's there.
NoLook     - If you put these files in an application directory no-one
             can look into the directory
!Padlock   - 1.00 Prevents unauthorised access to directories
Password   = Hard disc password application.
!Protect   = Can protect up to 21 directories from unauthorised
             access. Works with Image filing systems as well so can

!Safe      - Simple file encrypter/decrypter
!Scramble  = A file encrypter from Rick Crook.
!Scramble  = File encrypter from Paul Vigay. A feature is that if you

             forget the password!)
!Shield    = Another program by Ben carter to password protect a hard
             disc
!TimeLock  = Another hard disc protector, but it only prevents access
             to a directory between certain times. The idea was to
             stop kids getting into the 'Games' directory at school
             when they should have been working, but I'm sure there
             are other uses

             of text and you have to try to work out what they are
             from context
CO2effect  = A program by Bandy Ridgwell which is a global warming
             simulation. It can plot and display the likely effects of
             the various 'greenhouse' gases. Results are displayed
             graphically and can be saved. This is a 'cut down' demo
             version, but the only restrictions are that some
             parameters are fixed and cannot be varied. the full
             version is available from teh Author for the very modest
             price of £10. This seems like a comprehensive simulation
             and would be very useful as a teaching aid

             then the fuse you think it needs. The program then shows
             whether it's too small (the fuse blows) or too large (you
             have caused a fire).
!Gauss     ^ Simultaneous equation solver from Richard Sharpe
!Genotype  = 4.00 I'm not quite sure what this program by Toby Smith
             does. The Author says that it creates the 'Monohybrid
             crosses that any course in genetics will throw at you'.
             Since I've never taken a course in getetics and there's a
             complete lack of any more detailed description of what
             it's actual function is I'll just have to hope that
             prospective users will understand.
!German    - Allows the German accented characters to be entered into
             the keyboard buffer by clicking on them in a small

LimitF12   ^ Not strictly an educational program but I'm sure any I.T.
             teacher will see the value of this. It stops the use of
             the F12 or CTRL-F12 keys so the user can't get access to
             the CLI or open a TaskWindow
!Link      ^ Quiz game for two or three players based on the 'block
             buster' game. Database can be customised so you too can

             try them for yourself
!Planets   = Another gravity simulation, operates in a desktop window
!Plug      = 1.00 Rather nice program to teach you how to correctly
             wire a 13 amp plug. You have to drag the three wires to

             pay for them. Simple graphics based user interface which
             draws the actual coins. The pupil just enters the answers
             by clicking on a calculator type keyboard.
SoftChoice - A 'Clearview' hypertext from Dave Walsh to help

             Monarchs  and various events (Petition of Right, Civil War,
             Plague, Great Fire) and famous people. Obviously this is
             not done in great depth, but what is covered is done well.
             Normally I don't like Magpie and Genesis very much because
             they are so slow and clumsy, but this really is a very
             usefil teaching aid.
!Tudors    - Similar to the above but covering the life and times of the
             Tudor monarchs.
Bodiam     - Another school visit from Jim Fanning. This time it's to

             in Britain. Complete with lots of illustrations and aimed
             at Key Stage 2, although there is a lot of text which might
             make it difficult for children who are 'developing'
             readers.
Scouts    -  Two genesis spplications, lots of pictures, and some scout-related
             stories. This disc also includes the compilation 'Joining

             compiled by the pupils of the school, it relates to NC
             History, Key Stage 3, Medieval Realms. It concerns vists to
             Southease and contains material relating this to a study of
             a Doomsday village. There are scanned photos, plus several
             Genesis applications
TideMills -  Another project from Jim Fanning of Tideway School. As
             usual this comprises some text files, scanned photos and
             two Genesis applications. The project is all about the
             local area, and includes some historical notes and maps.
             Although this may not be of direct interest to people
             outside the area it does act as a very good example of how
             students can use the computer to collate the results of
             field trips and other studies to produce a computer project
!SWave     = 1.52 Demonstration of standing waves

!Zoo       = 1.20 Nice 'game' from Raffael Ferrigno. It's actually a
             simple 'expert system' demo but the idea is that the
             computer has to 'guess' the type of animal from the
             answers you give to a series of true or false questions.
             Could probably be improved into a useful teaching aid
Beginners  = A comprehensive beginners guide to the Archimedes written
             by Dave Walsh. This uses the Hypertext system 'ClearView'
             so it's very easy to use and you don't need any great
             understanding of the Arc to use it (which would rather
             defeat the purpose of the whole thing). Ideal for schools
             where it can be used as a learning aid for beginners or a
             'reminder' for the more experienced. Highly recommended for
             all new Archimedes owners.

             quiz, spelling tester, dictionary, word search, etc. All
             these enhancements, especially the large number of sound
             samples required for the huge word list, have made the
             complete package quite a bit larger, nearly 7Mb in fact
!FrVb_Test = French Verb Test from Graham Campbell. A non desktop
             program that asks for French translations of English
             verbs. Not fancy but works well. There is not much data
             with the program but the questions are in the form of
             simple text files so you can easily make your own.
!Heure     - Tell the time in French
LatinGram  ^ This is actually a book, made up of textfiles, separated
             into 39 chapters, and is a comprehensive course on Latin
             grammar. It's very well written and easy to read, but I
             can't find an author's name anywhere. Much better than
             any of the standard textbooks I can remember.
!LingoMast = 1.42 Another language tutor from Nigel Caplan. Not as
             comprehensive or sophisticated as Sprich but you can easily
             expand the vocabulary yourself

!VerbMast  : A comprehensive program from Nigel Caplan which displays
             verbs in a desktop window. This version has german and
             French but others will be available
!Verbs     - Translates verbs between French and English
!Vokabel   = I think this is a German language tutor but as all the
             instructions are in 'foreign' and it's thirty years since
             I last used German....

  Educate.Manuals

Desktop    ^ Four Drawfiles. Three are 'maps' of the menu structures
             of !Draw, !Edit and !Paint, and the fourth is a general
             map of the filer, Task Manager and other main desktop
             menus. These are very useful to newcomers to the Acorn
             desktop as it enables them to have a compact printed
             chart showing the main menu structures and functions.
Logo Manual - The Complete Guide to Logo by Dave Walsh. These are
             described as 'workcards' and make up 100 A5 cards, but in
             fact it's a huge Impression document in several files
             totalling over 1.8Mb, so I suspect that the adjective
             'complete' is fairly accurate. Nicely illustrated and laid
             out, it's obviously intended as a complete manual and
             tutorial for use in schools. It was actually written for RM
             Logo, but it should apply to almost any 'brand', and Logo
             is a farily standard language. However,  because it is not
             supplied as hard copy you can easily make any changes
             required for the version you are using.
Start Write help cards - 108 Drawfiles by Alan Shelton designed to be
             printed and turned into  Help Cards for the popular Start
             Write package. There are also three Index cards for the
             package. The advantage of this system over a conventional
             printed manual is that the cards can be used by several
             children at once. They have lots of screenshots and were
             written by a teacher using the program in a real classroom
             so are designed to be as helpful and useful as possible.
Talk Write help cards - 123 Drawfiles similar to the above and anain by
             Alan Shelton but for Talk Write.

             but I've cleared some of the obvious bugs and most of the
             functions seem to work. In theory it should run on a BBC
             or Nimbus as well but I've only tried it on the Arc.

Cambridge  = A multi-tasking emulation of the imaginary "Cambridge
             Microcomputer' used for computer studies
CPC Emulator - A slightly restricted version of the program by Mark
             Rison. Main restrictions are that it can't print or save

             desktop like IWord. New version has some bug fixes and
             now works with the Archimedes version (ISheetII).
!IWord     = 2.6/4.3 Converts Archimedes disc based version of
             Interword to run from the desktop like a normal RiscOS
             application. Installs on the icon bar and responds to
             file-clicking
!MZX       = 1.10 A 48K Sinclair Spectrum emulator. This apparently works
             very well (I've never owned a Spectrum so I can't test
             it properly). Can multitask or operate in single tasking
             mode for speed. Runs at about 60% of Spectrum speed on an
             ARM2 machine, around normal speed with an ARM2.5 and too
             damn quick with an ARM3. Now works on RiscPC
!MZXface   = 0.02 From Andrew Clover, this alows you to cheat whith
             many Spectrum games by using the Multiface 'pokes' which
             were published in many Spectrum magzines. Included is a
             text file with a large selection of cheats
!Spconv    = Converts betwwen various type of Spectrum 'snapshot'
             files so they can be imorted/exported to and from MZX

             again I don't know anything about this computer but I've
             tried a few simple Basic programs and it seems to work
             quite fast
!View      = 2.2 Ditto View ROMs. Works with A3, B3 etc. and the
             Archimedes version of View. Puts function keys in the

             the desktop. Now works with Watford 40 and 80 column
             versions
!Woz       = An Apple IIe emulator. This package does most things but
             doesn't include the Apple ROMs. If you have a IIe then it
             contains instructions for 'porting' them and the Author
             will supply copies on disc if you give PROOF of ownership
             of a IIe but otherwise you'll have to get them
!Z80Tube   ^ 4.00 From J.G.Harston, a complete Z80 second processor
             emulator. Works like 65Tube. Plus several extras
             including a Z80 disassembler. On a RiscPC this seems to
             run a lot faster than the original second processor so it
             should be pretty quick on any ARM 3 machine and adequate
             on even an ARM 2

  FileUtils

!Access    = Sets file attributes
!Attribute = 1.31 Allows recursive setting of file attributes
!Case2Case ^ 1.50 Nice program by Robert Lytton to change the case of
             names and automatically set filetypes of DOS files.
!Chopper   ^ 0.02 A program I wrote to 'chop up' large files so they
             can be put onto floppy discs and then joined up again.
             Very easy to use. Lots of people have asked for something
             to do this, so here it is. Now includes a cut-down
             program !Joiner which can be distributed with split files
             and SPLIT.EXE and SPLICE.EXE to do the same thing on a PC
             so that vry large files can easily be transported between
             PC and Archimedes
!CheckSave = Useful module from Peter Arnold which checks to see if a
             file would be overwritten by a Save operation and asks
             for confirmation if this is the case
!Compare   = A file compare program from Neil Walker
!Convert   = Now we all have RO3 (well, nearly all) and don't use apps
             like DosFS and PCDir any more we have to 'manually'
             convert the PC LF/CR to a LF when importing/exporting
             text files. This program does it automatically.
!CRC       = Calculates a 32 bit CRC value for a file
!DelBoot   = 1.03 Removes !Boot files which just contain 'IconSprites
             <Obey$Dir>.!Sprites' or other non essentials. Saves 1K of
             disc space for each file removed and speeds up the filer
DiffUtils  ^ A port of the GNU Diffutils 2.7. This is a CLI program
             which compares two files and gives info about their

             use on any filing system. Can search any path and all you
             need to do to set the start location of the search is
             drag a file to the !Filefind icon.
!FileKill  ^ Deletes files. Unlike 'dustbins' this does not copy the
             file to a 'bin' by just forces it's deletion, so it's
             ideal if you are SURE you want to delet it or for use
             with floppy-only systems
!FileSee   = Displays files in 'dump' format in a desktop window.
!FileSplit = 1.01 From Ainsley Pereira, lets you split very large
             files over several floppy discs so that you can transfer
             them between machines.
!FileSys   - 1.01 Shows the current filing system
!Filetree  ^ 1.01 Creates a Drawfile showing the file tree structure
             of a disc. Each file is shown with a 'filetype' sprite
             and the diagram is divided into pages. If you have a
             large hard disc, you can end up with a *LOT* of pages.
!FileTypes ^= 3.06 A sort of database of hundreds of filtypes. Drag a
             file to the icon and, if it understands it, it will tell
             you all about it

             remove control codes from text files) or replace them
             with others
!Filters   = Adds patches to the Filer. Most useful is to force the
             filer to ask for confirmation before deleting files (if
             you turn on confirm in the Filer window it asks for
             confirmation before copying as well - which is a bit
             tedious). Can also set CSD and perform an 'iconprites'
!Find      = 1.0 Desktop file finder - only works for ADFS
FRE        = 0.10 Find Regular Expression(s) Given a regular
             expression (RE) and a list of files it finds the files

!HexEdit   = 0.94 view/edit any type of file byte by byte
!ImageProt : 1.01 This module will stop you deleting a non-empty Image
             file. Extremely useful if you use Image files as
             compressed directories. It will also stop you deleting
             your 50Mb DOS partition by mistake!!
!Info      = 1.03 information display system. Allows viewing of text,
             Draw and sprite files from one application

             manually before resizing, also show free space on RAMdisc
!Memphis   = 2.08 RAM filing system that uses the RMA sprite area for
             its data. This gives a dynamically variable RAM disc
             which can have up to 30 character filenames. This version
             has lots of other features, especially it can create a
             'slave' filing system on a disc in which you can use the
             longer filenames.
!MultiObey = Lets you multitask Obey files. Particularly useful for
             Boot sequences or other long-winded tasks as it enables
             you to see what's going on

             lets you close any you no longer want open
!PretyFile ^ Renames those ugly upper-case filenames
!QZap      = 0.20 Desktop disassembler. Not as comprehensive or
             powerful as !Dissi or !Disassem but a useful tool for
             examining machine code applications and simpler to use.
             With C source code.
!ReName    = Another one of those useful little programs that you
             won't need very often, but when you DO it saves you lots
             of frustration. This renames a series of files with any
             name you wish follwed by a numerical suffix 01, 02, etc.
!Renamer   = Useful if you port files from a PC. Changes those 'orrid
             and ugly upper case names to nice, pretty, Acorn ones in
             lower case with a capital first letter. Works recursively
             through directories and has a substitution list so it can
             substitute certain names. eg README could become ReadMe.
RSlink     - Allows you to link the Arc up to a serial device for
             transferring text files from one machine another.
!Settype   = 1.01 Sets filetypes
!Shredder  ^ A file destroyer by Peter Jones. When files are deleted
             the data is still on the disc, but this program actually
             overwrites it as a security precaution if it's something
             you don't want anyone else to be able to recover
Split/Join = Helps move large files from a PC to an Archimedes by
             splitting the file over several discs on the PC and
             joining it back up on the Arc. Could be very useful if
             you want to transfer large database files etc. Consists
             of a PC .EXE file and a command line driven  Arc. utility
!Splitter  = Splits up large text files into smaller sections. Unlike
             most file splitters it's designed only for text files so
             it has various features specific to this
!StripCase ^ Strips file extensions from DOS filenames and makes them
             lower case
!Suite     = Various utilities from Neil Walker, force deletion of
             files/directories, set filetypes, displsy text files,
             speaker on/off, set CSD, show time, ARM 3 cache on/off.
!TidyApp   = If you just hate all those people who use upper case
             filenames you will probably like this. It 'tidies up' the
             'standard' filenames to the proper case, eg. changes !RUN
             to !Run, !BOOT to !Boot etc.
!TidyDisc  = From Anthony Brion this performs two main tasks. First it
             renames 'standard' files with nicely formatted names -
             eg, !SPRITES to !Sprites, !runimage to !RunImage, etc.
             (upper case filenames are a real pain on the Risc PS with
             an outline font in filer windows). The other purpose is
             to uncompress !Boot, !Sprite, GIF, TIF etc. files
             compressed with CFS which don't take up any less disc
             space but slow up disc access
!TypeFind  = 2.01 A rather good program for guessing the filetype of
             untyped files. Its main use is for identifying files
             downloaded from BBS's or ported from PC's etc.
!WhatFile  ^ Simple app to give info on files which may not have a
             filetype alias set.
!Wiper     = File/directory deleter
!Yermassa  ^ Billed as 'yet another filetype setter to clutter up your
             icon bar' from Franz Philipps. Actually, it's rather
             good, lets you select the type you want from a large menu
             and the app. icon shows the type that the file will be
             changed to

  File_Trans

!NC-100    : 0.20 Serial link for Amstrad NC100 notebook computer. Can
             also print via the Archimedes printer and convert between
             Amstrad Address Book files and CSV, Tab or plain text.

             Converts between Z88/Arc Basic. Now acknowledged as the
             standard Arc-Z88 transfer program and most users say that
             it is better than Z88 Link.
!Zap       = Oh no... Another program called !Zap. This one's a file
             transfer program for the Z88. It's not as good as the one
             on B228 (but then I would say that) but it works OK.

  FLIC

!FliPlay   = Non-desktip player for FLI movies
!QuickFLIC = Program to display PC FLI moving picture files in a
           desktop window.
  PLUS hundreds of FLI films to view.

!FontEd    = 0.32  Acorns Font Editor. A bit old now and only works
             with RO 2 fonts but I don't know of anything better in PD
             or Shareware. If you do, please tell me. This can't
             produce RO-3 type kerned fonts but, unlike earlier
             versions, it won't crash if you load a RO3 font. Acorn
             permit this to be distributed under licence but point out
             that they no longer support it, so if you do have any
             problems or queries please don't ask them.

             you put your fonts in groups and switch the groups in and
             out of use at will. Seems to work OK in Risc PC. Includes
             good documentation in text and Impression Style format
             and a utility to convert from previous FostMgr1 format.
!FontMsg   = Scans the !Fonts directory and creates a message file so
             fonts aren't scanned when you boot as the references are
             taken from the message file. This makes the operation
             much faster than usual.
!FontMsgs  : Another program by Darren Salt to speed up font directory
             scanning
!FontPrint = Yet another font tester by David Wilkins

TurboFont  = A similar application to do the same thing
!WFNBoss   = Converts WFN (Corel Draw etc) fonts to Archimedes. Not
             very fast but then you only use it once for each font
!WhichFont : Simple app from A.R.Miskin to add font directories to the
             Font Path

  FontUtils.SystemFont

!BBCFontEd = 1.04 Nice desktop system font editor from Graham Hick.
!FEd       = 8x8 system font editor. There are lots of these but this
             one's quite good.

!Tesseract = A four dimensional (!) cube display from David McQuillan
!TripATron = 1.50 A series of fractal type graphics displays. The
             Author says it's ideal for parties (I think the name
             suggests what *type* of parties!)
!Wibble    = Very interesting program from Alistair Tunbull. I'm not
             going to describe it, try it for yourself
!WimpFrac  = Nice desktop fractal program from Hendrik Pedersen. Not
             very quick but allows you to adjust most parameters
             (including the palette) and produces some great images,
             especially in hi-res modes
  PLUS four discs of fractal related goodies from the Archimedes Fractal Group

  GraphChart

!AGP       ^ 1.72 Archimedes Graph plotter by Ben Harris. A Wimp
             program to plot graphs of functions. Can plot two graphs
             on the same axis which is useful for comparison. Can save
             output as its own filetye for realoading or as a
             Drawfile. Fast and very easy to use
!Chart     = Produces charts for !Draw from data. Can also print the

             plot graphs of function.
GNUplot    ^ 3.4 The famous interactive function plotting program
             This is an extremely powerful (though not very user
             friendly) package, and I am sure that most people who
             need it will have experience of it on other platforms
!Graff     = 1.01 Another program to display a graphical
             representation of an equation from Dave Thomas
!GraphDraw = 2.52  Excellent desktop graph drawing package from Chris

             graphs. Can save data in CSV, Tab and various other formats.
!Graph     = Program by Mike Curnow to create a graph from a script
             input file
!Graph     = 1.16 Desktop graph plotter. Can save output as a CSV file
             but can only print the graphical result (via RiscOS PD's)
             and not save it as a Drawfile like some others
!MathGraph = Another program to draw scientific graphs
!Maths     = 1.00 Non desktop function graph plotter by R.H.Thornburrow
             When I first tried this program it wouldn't run at all
             but I've cleared some of the obvious bugs and most of the
             functions seem to work. In theory it should run on a BBC
             or Nimbus as well but I've only tried it on the Arc.
!PieDraw   = Nice little app from Mike Williams which produces a
             Drawfile pie chart from a simple text input file. Ideal
             for producing charts ready to incorporate into DTP docs.

!SciModel  = A nonlinear least squares curve fitting application
!SciTrans  = Allows transformance of 'x' and 'y' fields in the
             previous programs

   Graphics

3Dcycle2   ^ By Daniel Mossop, displays a selection of auto
             stereograms and also cycles the colours to help releive
             the boredom.
3D_Graphic = 0.03 Module with various SWI's for vector graphics. There
             are a couple of short demos with it. I don't know where
             it came from as there's no name or Copyright message
AIM 3.15 ^ Archimedes Image Manager, a very powerful image processing package
!BMPSprite ^ 1.01 By Darren Salt, converts BMP format files to and
             from Sprites and Clear files.

             testing colour printers or checking how colours will look
             on a mono printer
ColourTrn3 - A RM to allow colour 'dithering' to mix colours and give
             you extra colours on the screen
!Detail    = This alows you to display and manipulate images. Works
             with CLEAR files and sprites and up to 24 bpp. Can grab a
             screen, change the palette, etc. This is a partially
             crippled version of a commercial package (the distributors
             describe it as 'Shareware' which shows how ignorant they
             are of the Shareware principle) but it is useful 'as is'
!Draw2Spr  ^ App by Ian McLaren to convert a Drawfile to a Sprite
!DrawGrab  = Converts a DrawFile to  sprite. Seems to work OK with
             some files and not so good with others
!DrawLink  - Links ASCII text files into a format suitable for
             inclusion in !Draw/!Draw+ as a text area
!DrawLots  = Creates Drawfiles of various geometrical shapes. Can save
             a lot of time because Draw itself can't do this
!Drop      = Rotates DrawFiles about 2 axis in 3D. A bit slow but it
             works OK
!Gamma     ^ ,Very useful colour correction program for the Risc PC by
             Rod Davidson. A must for anyone who does any serious
             graphics work or uses a colour printer and wants to see
             on-screen what will appear on the paper.
GDpatch    = This 'patches' the GDraw Module from Artworks to make it

!GreyEdit  = 1.35 A utility to process 256-level greyscale images.
!Image     : 1.41D  A superb new 24 bit image processing package from
             Ian Palmer. Can alter the colour range, filter an image,
             resize, rotate, merge two images etc. Can read sprites
             (including 15bbp and 24bpp), Clear files, PBMPlus, GIF
             and JPEG. One advantage is that Image doesn't need to
             hold the file in RAM but can operate from disc, so you
             can manipulate an image larger than available RAM
!Jewel     = A Joint Photograph Expert Group image compressor and
             decompressor based on release 3 of the Independent JPEG
             group work
!Marble    = A non desktop program to produce 'marbled' sprites. You
             can alter the parameters to give different textures and
             colours. These can be used for all sorts of things but
             they're also good for desktop backdrops so you needn't be
             restricted to the ones provided by Acorn
!Mask      = 1.11 Lets you select certain items of a sprite or CLEAR
             file isolate them. This lets you do things like changing
             or erasing objects or certain types or morphing
             Comes with utilities for splitting up large CLEAR files,
             renaming sprites, and an Animator program
!ModeConv  = A sprite mode converter
Morpher    : !MorphDes and !MorphRun from Jason Howat. These can
             perform 2D morphing and produce Acorn Replay files.
             Unfortunately no instructions or examples
!Morpheus  = A morphing program from Henrik Pedersen which produces a
             sequence from two 256 colour spritefiles. This is a cut-
             down version of the full program which has lots of
             additional features, however it is functional
!PickAPic  = 1.15 Program by Hugh Eagle to let you browse through a
             disc or discs of Draw, Sprite, or Poster files and pick
             out the one(s) you want to use. This new version has many
             new features. It can process Artworks files, archives in
             SparkFS, ArcFS, etc. format, 'new format' Drawfiles, and
             can handle rotated text and transformed sprites in
             Drawfiles. It will also now multitask during long
             operations, plus lots of other improvements.
             Various other enhancements are proposed but these depend
             upon feedback from users. Although PickAPic isn't
             Shareware, if you like it I strongly suggest you send a
             contribution to the Author as he suggests that this will
             encourage him to spend more time on it's development.
!PixelPal  = 2.10 Helps improve 16 colour sprites by showing colour
             combinations needed to produce extra shades by dithering
!Pottery   = 2.10  Interesting program from Richard Seago. Works like
             a potters wheel. As you draw a line in one window so a
             shaded 3D object is drawn in the other. This resembles
             the effect that would be produced if the lines you have
             drawn were to be used to 'mould' a rotating object. The
             resulting image can be saved as a sprite. This would
             probably be a very useful and quick tool for producing
             sprites to be used in games
!Shade     - Converts colour sprites to greyscale
!SortSprit = 1.11 Sorts sprites in a file into alphabetical order
!SpriteFix = Converts sprites saved from specialised modes into the

             containing commands like DRAW, MOVE etc. to Drawfiles
!Thumbnail = 1.30 Superb new program from Ian Palmer to display
             a series miniature versions of pictures so you can find
             the one you want quickly in a similar manner to PickAPic.
             It provides support for Sprite, Draw and Artworks.
!VDUobject - 1.02 converts VDU sequences into a Drawfile

             Draw and moulds them to fit between two other paths
!Dxf-CGM   = By Keith Sloan, converts between DXF and CGM Metafile
             formats. The Author points out that this program is not
             complete and cannot cope with complex constructs.
!EPSobject = Converts EPS format files as used by Corel Draw, Aldus
             Freehand, Adobe Illustrator etc. into vector objects
             suitable for use in !Draw
!ExPal     = 1.01 Extracts the palette from a GIF, IFF or Clear file
             and converts it to a Drawfile
!FYEO2     = 2.01 For Your Eyes Only. Viewer for JPEG, GIF and now PPM
             and Targa files which is an alternative to Translator or
             ChangeFSI. Unlike Translator it works within the desktop
             and it's a lot faster and simpler to use. On the other
             hand the fact that it works within the desktop means it's
             forced to use the Wimp palette. The answer - get both!
             2.00 seems more 'robust' than earlier versions which
             sometimes crashed if there was a problem with the image.
!GIF->JPG  : GIF to JPEG file converter
GIF2RPC    ^ 1.02 From Cy Booker, this converts high quality GIF files
             to 32K colour Spritefiles
!GreyToRGB = 1.02 Combines three 8bpp Clear or AIM files to a single
             24bpp Clear file so you can combine Red Green and Blue
             images into a true 24bpp image. Can also alter colour
             values so you can produce 'weird' images
!InterDraw ^ A program to interpolate Drawfiles by Rosemary Miskin
!JPG->GIF  : And the other way
!HackSpr   = 1.00 Adjusts poorly converted 16bpp sprites to true 8bpp
             colour output
!IFFinfo   = 1.00 Provides basic info on ILBM IFF files
!JFIF      = A desktop 'front end' for ChangeFSI which enables it to
             handle CJPEG and DJPEG files. Although ChangeFSI can do
             this it can otherwise only do so from the command line
!JPEGit    : 1.10A Extension to !ChangeFSI to give JPEG compression.
             You need the RO3 version of ChangeFSI to use this
!MakeGIF   = 2.05 A program from John Kortink to convert Arc sprite or
             Clear files to GIF. Now largely superseded by Creator but
             this program may be simpler to use if you don't need all
             it's facilities
!MakeIFF   = Non-desktop program to convert Arc sprite files to IFF
!MakeJPEG  = 1.04 Converts GIF, PBM or Targa file to JPEG or visa

             Fax, Degas, ,GIF, IFF, PICT, QRT, MTV, AutoCAD, TIFF, HP
             L/jet, etc., etc.).
!Prescribe = Converts objects in a Drawfile into PreScribe-II commands
RandJPEG   ^ 1.00 Again from Cy Booker, this time to convert JPEG
             files to 256 colour sprites.
             NB. This program requires RISC-OS 3.6 or better
!RGB_Spr   = 1.00 Converts 24bpp RGB description file into a sprite
!Spr2Jpeg  = 1.07 A Sprite <> JPEG conversion program from David
             Rodgman. Needs ChangeFSI, and of course later versions
             can operate with JPEG files anyway
!Sprte2IFF = 0.52 Converts a Spritefile to IFF format.

!Surface   ^ A 3D surface plotter. Can produce 'pictures' of a variety
             of shapes.
!TargaInfo = 1.00 Gives info about Targa files
!TexturGdn ^ 0.47 Texture Garden by Tim Tyler. Produces textured
             sprites using various complex algorithms. The 'input' for
             these is taken from a script file, and lots of sample
             scripts are provided. The tiles are ideal for backgrounds
             for the desktop or web pages
!TIFFinfo  = 1.00c Gives info on TIFF files
!TIFFinfo  - Provides information on TIFF graphics format files
!To24bpp   = Lets you use ChangeFSI to converts a 24bpp 'foreign' file
             to one of the new 16 or 24 bpp spritefiles. If you don't
             have a RiscPC then ChangeFSI can't do this within the
             desktop
!Translatr = 7.21 Converts pictures from ST, Amiga, Mac, PC and other
             foreign formats to Arc format. Will handle most 'native'
             Arc formats as well as many types of sprite, including

             Artisan, Wild Vision etc.
!TText-Spr = Converts Teletext screen to a sprite.
!ViewObj   ^ This is by the same authors as Virtual3D and is related
             to it. It enables 3D objects to be viewed and rotated
!Virtual3D ^ This is a demonstration of a 3D graphics library by Wilco
             Dijkstra and Mattijs van Delden. You can create 'worlds'
             and 'drive' or 'fly' around them. It's main uses will be
             for games and an example is provided. There's lots of
             potential for anyone interested in writing games.
!Waster    ^ DDE utility to remove left hand wastage from sprites in
             Spritefiles or Drawfiles
!Zippo     ^ 1.04 A converter for Clear files from Dave Thomas. Will

             V12 formats.

  Graphics.Displsy

!AnimView  = An application to show a 'film' of sprite files in a
             small desktop window
!CAViewer  = A rather useful program from Dean Sivell to display Draw,
             Sprite, Artworks, Tablemate or Equasor files. Not only is
             it a lot quicker and less fussy that messing about with
             the original applications just to look at the file, it
             also saves you having to have !Paint, !Draw, etc. running
             if you just want to browse
!Cobbler   = An application from Emmet Spier for use with the Multipod
             which lets you digitise a Mode 21 image if you have less
             than 4Mb of RAM. Needs a copy of 'Translator' (B012)
!Deep4All  : Displays 24bpp 'deep' sprites on non-RiscPC machines
!DiscPlot  = 1.02 Displays a Spritefile directly from disc in a
             window. Uses almost no memory so you can look at a large
             sprite when memory is limited.
!Display   - Displays Draw files
!DrawPrint ^:1.01 by James McQueen a utility to view/print Drawfiles.
!JView     = A JPEG file viewer from ARM's Tech which is very much
             faster than either ChangeFSI of Translator
!LoadImage : Just displays a sprite in a window.
!MPEG      = 2.0.6 A MPEG movie file player by Paul LeBeau based on
             the player from Berkley Uni, California
!Multi     = 1.22 A program from Alun Jones to display sprites created
             in any mode on a standard monitor
!PicView   = Very good program from Simon Hatliff tp display sprites
             in a desktop window. Saves all that messing about with
             Paint to view a sprite
!PlayAVI   = 1.00 Program by Paul Gardiner to play films for
             Microsoft's 'Video for Windows' package
!ShowDraw  = Displays  Drawfiles in a desktop window. If you drag a
             directory containing lots of Drawfiles to the display
             window they are shown one at a time in sequence
!SprDisp   = Displays a large sprite on the screen. The sprite can be
             larger than the screen so it's useful for looking at very
             large sprites if you don't have a hi res monitor.
!SpriteFS  = 1.08 Lets you view the sprites in the System Sprite area
!SprView   = Another app to dsplay a large sprite on the desktop by
             Joss Smith

  Life

3dLife     = Fascinating 3D version of life
!ArcAut    = Good 'cellular automata' program. Input is in the form of
             script files which produce the display.
!BreederCA = A program for genetically breeding Cellular Automata
             rules. In effect a much enhanced variation on 'Life'
!Bugs      = A good (non desktop) version of
             Life with lots of options.
!Hodge     = 1.01 Cellular automata in a small desktop window from
             Warner Hepping

             many different types of creatures.
!PV_Life   = From Paul Vigay, the game of Life - on the icon bar
!RISCLife  = From Henrik Pedersen

  Magazines

CoreDump 1 One interesting item is a discussion on fitting two MEMC's
           to enable you to have 8Mb of RAM in an A310 (and probably
           an A400 as well). Also a piece on doubling the speed of a
           486 PC but I wouldn't advise you to try this unless you're
           prepared to scrap the motherboard if it fails.

CoreDump 2 Improved user I/face. You can now switch the sound off
           (well, turn down the volume to zero) and the 'dissolving
           scroll' adds a nice touch. Articles on programming the
           VIDC, ARM code, a DIY 30Mhz A5000 (sound plausible) and how
           NOT to speed up your A3000.

Folding5th No, I don't know why it's called that and I can't be bothered
           to find  out. This is a magazine which is supposed to contain
           articles on non computer related topics. Owing to the fact
           that it uses Genesis and  the 'links' are either scrambled or
           it's just incompetently written I couldn't even *find* the
           articles so I don't know what it's like. If  you are one of
           these strange people who actually like Genesis/Magpie  then
           you might want to take a look (perhaps you can make it work!)

Lunchtime1 The first issue of Lunchtime magazine. This is a rather
           unusual disc magazine because it has articles on a variety of
           subjects - except computers! Most of these are  humorous
           without descending into either smutt or 'in jokes', which
           does rather make a change.

Lunchtime2 Second issue of Lunchtime magazine.

Lunchtime3 Third issue of this interesting mag (subtitled 'Edward's
           Revenge'). Includes an Interview with God. Presumably because
           it's a non-computer oriented mag they didn't think Bill Gates
           would be appropriate.

Lunchtime4 'Yul Brynner's Memorial Toolshed'. No, I won't tell you why
           it's  called that - you'll have to read it and find out. Once
           again there's a lot to read. The user interface is improved
           so the text area is  bigger and the colours are nicer too.
           Lunchtime continues to improve  and shows no sign of the
           contributors running out of ideas.

Lunchtime5 'Wardrobe Racing for Foreigners'. Even bigger and better than
           the  previous issues. Nothing more to say, is there?

NewDawn1   Issue One. A variety of items and some good and informative
           articles. Published by Quantum and contributors include Tom
           Cooper who has  written some of the best PD games for the
           Archimedes. Also includes two original games. I have reviewed
           several disc based magazines in the past, normally  costing
           about £3 per issue, and this is the by far the best of any
           that I have seen- and it's PD. If this high quality continues
           I shall  try to include all future issues.

NewDawn2   It has so I have (see above). If anything it's better than
           the first issue, mainly because there are more 'outside'
           contributions.

Opinions 1 Reviews of FontFX, poster and various PD programs

Opinions 2 Reviews of Pipedrean 4 and various PD, plus various other
           articles

Opinions 3 More reviews and an article on outline fonts.

Opinions 4 Improved user interface. Various reviews and an article on
           Watford Electronics. This is obviously a personal opinion
           but it reinforces my own and that of many others who have
           dealt with them. I suggest you take note.

PttP       Power To The Programmers. Disc-based games magazine from Coin
           Age aimed at Arc. enthusiasts. Filled with a number
           interesting articles and well worth a look. This is aimed
           mainly at games programmers or those that want to learn how
           to write games and is therefore fairly technical.

Queen Fan Newsletter
           A quarterly newsletter for fans of the group Queen. Included
           here are issues 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20. There are various
           items about the group and each numbered archive contains the
           quarterly newsletter. Each archive has a suffix which is the
           number of the QFN issue and contains one newsletter. At
           present this starts at 16 because all previous newsletters
           have been paper only, but some earlier issues MAY become
           available. If you want earlier ones please write to the
           Editor of QFN. The more interest shown the more likely he is
           to make them available
           Note that although the contents of of these discs may be
           freely read and used by the **purchaser** it is NOT 'Public
           Domain' and is distributed with the permission of the Editor
           of QFN, David Parr

Spectrum1  A new disc magazine from the people who brought you the
           'Riscy Game' flight simulators. I'm not going to go into
           detail about what's in it, if you like disc magazines then
           try it and see for yourself.

Spectrum2  Issue two of 'Spectrum' magazine. Reasonable balance of
           articles about PD software, computers, and various other
           topics (even footbal gets a  mention - how low can they
           get!). The software is quite good too, although it can be a
           bit quirky - you use the mouse to select items but then the
           arrow keys to scroll the text. Still, it's probably one of
           the best disc mags around, disregarding 'specialist' mags
           only  Lunchtime equals it.

Spectrum3  The user interface is much improved (easier to use and
           faster) and this issue is a great leap forward. Lots of
           interesting contents, all non technical, and as well as
           reviews of many commercial products there are also short
           reviews of dozens of PD games. Now works perfectly on the
           Risc PC (issue 2 needed Game On). Highly recommended.

Thumper1   Thumper Issue 1 Interesting new magazine with various
           articles including info on drum programming for Soundtracker
           writers, help and examples for Persistence of Vision, a
           Repton type game and some fictional stories.

Thumper2   Thumper issue 2  Better than the previous issue with improved
           interface. Still a bit thin on content but shows a lot of
           promise. Includes a few PD  applications and some short
           Tracker tunes.

TipTop1    Issue 1  A magazine from Tim Willis which is intended to be
           a continuing review of Archimedes PD. The content is a bit
           sparse on text so there is very little 'real' information
           about the programs reviewed, but on the other hand it
           compresses well so it doesn't take up too much disc space.
           The main problem is the display interface. This is actually
           a desktop package from Musbury Consultants and *would* be
           very good except that if 'it' decides it doesn't like the
           current screen mode it changes it. I end up with a %^&&$y
           awful flickering Mode 13 screen and have to change to
           something more suitable. Unforgivable in a commercial
           package from people who should know better but not the
           fault of the magazine.

TipTop2    Issue 2  Similar to the first issue but with about double
           the editorial content.

Virtuality Sample Issue. The 'PD sample' of Virtuality magazine which
           has now merged  with Illusions. It has quite a lot of reviews
           and other articles but it's biggest fault is that it uses
           !Magpie. This makes it slow and cumbersome and very difficult
           to get hard copy of bits you are interested in.

Kalaeidoscope A 'sample' issue of a proposed new disc magazine. Doesn't
           look bad but, as usual, they've chosen to use fancy graphics
           so although  the disc is crammed full (there isn't even room
           for a copy of ArcFS  which you will need) the editorial
           content is not very large. The  proposed 'proper' version
           will have 3-4 discs and cost £3.50-£4.50.  Personally I have
           a strong objection to 'professional' (?) programs that remove
           my RAM disc, alter my mouse speed and don't properly  restore
           the system font, so I'm not impressed.

  Music

!ACH_Strkr = 2.00 Desktop Tracker/STracker player with various
             controls which also allow you to listen to individual
             samples of a tune
!Active    ^ 1.02 Provides an indication os how busy the computer is
             when a tune is playing
!APTracker = 2.00 Very good Tracker player/editor/creator from Andrew
             Pepperell. Seems to have all the features you would
             expect plus (very unusual for anything to do with music)
             good instructions. This isn't my field but it appears to
             be a very good program and I suggest you give it a try.
!au2snd    ^ A program from Jason Howat to convert uLaw samples to
             Armadeus format. Includes C source
!CDaudio   ^ A player for audi CDs by Ray Middleton. This has various
             improvements over the standard player, including the
             ability to remember the tracks on a CD and play them
             in the sequence you choose.
!CDtracker : 2.21 Comprehensive database for your CD's. Not only does
             it allow you to catalogue your CD (or tape) collection,
             with full search facilities, it can also (given suitable
             hardware) play them as well. Comes complete with a huge
             ready made database. Can import data from similar
             programs (including the popular !CDIndex and !Cassette)
!ClownPlay ^ 0.21 Desktop player for Coconizer tunes by Gareth Boden.
             Works OK, but the control window looks like something
             copied from an A***a, ugh!
!DeskVu_2  = Desktop vu meter
!DeskVu_8  = Ditto
!DSJukeBox = 1.30 'Juke box' style desktop player for Digital Symphony
!DSP       = From Arm's Tech a bar/scope display
DXEN       ^ A desktop Xenakis (??) Tracker player. One sample file is
             provided. No proper instructions but I believe these
             files are native to some weird toy called the Amiga.
!Harmony   ^ Plays most Acorn format music files with a Playlist, ie.
             you drop the files onto the icon and it plays them, or
             you can save/load a playlist file.
!ITM       = Interactive Technoligies Music System. In effect, a
             desktop tracker player
!Liss      = 1.03 From Warner Hepping, this displays Lissajoux figures
             modulated by the voices playing.
MatrixTRK - A new song player which promises much higher quality than others
        (including, acording to the !Help file, Digital Symphony). It uses its
        own file format (which is fully described) and comes with tools to
        convert from Scream Tracker 3 format.
MusicSDP   ^ 1.01 From James Ponder, this gives some quite nice
             graphics displays in time to any music that is playing
!OT2       ^ 1.51 Octa Track. This looks like a desktop music editor.
             Unfortunately there are absolutely no instructions and no
             address for the Author. It *seems* to work on the RiscPC
             but owing to aforesaid lack of info I can't try it
             properly. However, as it's a straightforward Wimp program
             it should be easy to find out how it works. Comes with
             lots of sample tunes and voices and info on the format
             used for the tunes
!Oscillo   = An audio oscilloscope by Christian Ghezzi which displays
             audio signals. It actually works by displaying the
             changing contents of a preset memory location, so it
             should be able to work with most types of sound sampler
             (provided you know which memory location to monitor).
!PlayerMod = 1.24 Another good soundtracker player by Nick Smith
!PDTracker = 4.52 Probably the nicest tracker front end by Simon
             Hatliff. Full of features and can queue up to 512 tunes.
             Unfortunately with this version the author has chosen to
             provide instructions in StrongHelp format instead of the
             previous text file, so you'll have to struggle with that
             instead of printing them and reading them at leisure.
!PlayTrack = 1.06 A very comprehensive Tracker/Soundtracker player
             with lots of features, full control of sound, vu meter,
             display sample waverform, save tune as RM, etc.
!ProTrack  = 1.11 Superior tracker player from BASS
!Q2Track   : 1.01 Cue to track. A superior Protracker/Soundtracker
             player. As well as the usual functions it has a (non
             desktop) display of waverforms, VU meters, and lots of
             other features, including 'user preferences' which can be
             saved to disc. By Ian Scott and Lovell Fuller
!QuickCD   ^ Another CD music player by Chris Jackson.
!RiscTrack ^ 2.35 Another multi format music player with lots of bells
             and whistles by Ian Clark
!RMCreate  = Creates a voice Module from a stereo Tracker module.
!SmartCD   ^ 1.13 This is s CD player with lots of features. As well
             as playing/cataloguing audio CD's it can play the music
             from many games CD's
!Stretch   ^ This is a *very* crude program to increse the play length
             of a sample by Benjamin Bommer. The author admits that it
             introduces a lot of distortion, but then that's not
             entirely unwelcome.
STSpeedP   : Module to automatically issue a *playspeed command as you
             switch between screen modes so music speed doesn't change
!STtoRhap  = 1.00 Converts a SoundTracker file or module and converts
             it to Rhapsody format.
THSound    ^ By Tony Houghton (imaginative program name, eh?) this is
             a module which lets you play lots of samles without
             having to load each as a separate Module. Would probably
             be ideal for games, etc.
!TrackConv = 3.00 Converts Tracker files to other formats. eg. Amiga
             Soundtracker to Archimedes Tracker, Coconizer to
             Soundtracker
!TrackCTRL = 2.00 Gives you control over Tracker modules from the
             desktop
!Trackeys  ^ 4.00 Hot Key control of Tracker player by Michael
             Richards
!Trackster ^ 1.00 By Dave Thomas, this is intended to rip patterns or
             sequences from Tracker modules so you can examine them
             (or 'borrow' them?)
!Transpose = Program from Tony Gibson to raise or lower the pitch of a
             soundtracker
!Trk_Print = Again from Tony Gibson, prints Patters, Samples or
             Sequences from a Tracker
!YATI      = 2.99 'Yet Another Tracker Interface', a desktop front end
             for the Tracker player module

  Music.Midi

!ArcMidi   = 0.22 A MIDI sequencer written by L.Frederiks.
!MidiPlay  = 0.5 CLI driven application by Stephen Goldthorpe. Plays
             MIDI files in formats 0 and 1. The (short) !Help file
             refers to GEM so I suspect it's an ST port. Comes with C
             source so someone could probably rewrite it as a 'proper'
             Arc application.
!MIDISequ  = A MIDI sequencer from Tony Gibson. Looks like a very
             useful program
!NoMIDIc   = 0.24 I have no idea what this does, except that it's
             something to do with MIDI and it's written by Keith
             parks. If the Author can't be bothered to describe his
             own work....
!SY77Link  = 1.10 From Cristian Ghezzi this lets you transfer voices
             between your computer and a Yamaha SY77 or compatible
             synthesyzer.
SY77Voices = A colletion of over 60 voices for the Yamaha SY77
             compiled by Cristian Ghezzi

  Music.Coconizer

Two versions of Coconizer plus dozens of songs and hundreds of voices.

  Printing

!AddLabel  = 1.00 *very* simple program to print a name and address
             onto a label using a DM printer
!Ctzn_120D ^ Rather old(ish) program from AMF to let you insert codes
             into a textfile to use effects like bold, italic,
             underline, super/sub-script etc. with a Citizen 120D
             printer. There are probably lots of these still around
             but the program has been written so it can easily be
             modified to work with other printers
!DrawPrint ^:1.01 by James McQueen a utility to view/print Drawfiles.
!Envelope  = Simple program to address an envelope.
!FanFold  ^: A program by Andrew Ayre to ensure that textfiles aren't
             printed over the perforations of fanfold paper. It also
             lets you set top and bottom margins. This is done by line
             counting so it will work with any printer and paper size.
!InitDM    = Lets you set fonts, etc. Modified for use with KXP1124
InlayPrnt  = 2.05 Cassette inlay printer but this one can be output as a
             Draw file
!Jet_Text  = 2.60 Text printing utility by D.Bower for printers using
             the HP PCL codes, which includes the Deskjet family and
             many others which emulate it - ie. most lasers. Lets you
             print text in 'native' text mode instead of 'graphic'
             mode used by the Acorn PD's so it's *much* faster
!LC10codes ^ A *very* crude program but a very simple and useful idea.
             It creates lots Data files which contain codes to switch
             printer effects on and off. These are set for the LC10,
             but you can make your own for any DM printer. If you are
             writing text in !Edit etc. you then just drag one of
             these files to the Edit window and the code is inserted
             into the text at the cursor. Crude but effective!
!OnePrint  ^ Very simple (and again rather crude) program to print a
             short piece of text on a DM printer. Main use would be
             for addressing an envelope, printing a label or memo etc.
!Pantone   ^ These are files for Artworks which create a list of
             'professional' Pantone or TruMatch spot colours.
!Planner   - Creates an A4 year planner as a Draw file ready for
             printing
!PrintEmul = This was originally on an earlier disc. It tries to
             display a file created by PrinterDM when it printed a
             graphics file
!PrinterTx = Text only printer driver
!PrintFile = Opens a 'Printer' window
!PrintSet  = 2.01 for Epson printers. Lets you select various printer
             fonts and facilities from a menu.
!PrntDiary = Prints a 'desk diary' with a month on each page. Days can
             have personalised entries anniversaries, birthdays, etc.
!RiScript  : This is a Postscript previewer. It can display most PS
             files and can also save the display as a Drawfile. This
             looks like a potentially useful tool, but unfortunately
             the documentation is pathetic, and I don't have time to
             try it extensively.
Strip      = 1.00 Module to intercepts printer control codes and stop
             them being sent to the printer. Useful when sending text
             files, DUMP's, or other files that may contain non-ascii
             characters to a printer
!TextMax   ^ Puts printer control codes into text so that you can use
             special effects in a text editor (Edit, Zap, etc)
             Unfortunately it's set up for a particular Epson printer
             and there doesn't seem to be any simple way to change it
!TextPrint = A text file printer from John Lageu
!TxtPrint+ = 2.06 Text file printer driver which can reformat,
             repaginate, print Basic program listings etc.
Ghostscript = This is a variation of the Postscript (TM) language. The
             program is a full RiscOS implementation and as well as the
             main application and the standard UGLYR font there are
             equivalents to Charter, Times, Zapf Chancery, Avante
             Guarde, Bookman, Courier, Helvitica, Hershey, Palatino,
             Symbol and Zapf Dingbats.

  Printing.Labels

!DiscLabel = 3.02 Prints disc labels
!Label     = 2.11 Comprehensive label printer by Jonathan Martin.
             Works with most sizes of labels 1, 2, or 3 wide and text
             can be entered directly in a window or from a file
!Labeller  - 1.00 Disc label printer
!Labeller+ = Simple label printer by Ben Brown. Not as sophisticated
             as most others but easy for a single label/envelope
!Labels    = 3.1 Simple database/label printer by Rafaele Ferrigno.
             The description 'simple' is the Author's, not mine, in
             fact it's quite comprehensive. This has just been
             extensively updated (it was previously called Label) and
             includes a program to convert files from the earlier
             version.
!MailLabel - 5.22  A nice utility to print sticky labels or envelopes.
             Uses RiscOS printer drivers and fancy fonts
!PrintLbls = 1.12 A label printer that can use fancy fonts. Takes it's
             input from a CSV file so can use output from most
             databases, spreadsheets, etc. This was written by Steven
             Haslam primarily to work with Powerbase but as it's a
             useful program in its own right I've put it on this disc
             as well for those of you who don't use Powerbase
!ProLabel  = 1.08 Comprehensive disc label designer/printer which
             supports outline fonts and pictures (drawfile or sprite).

  Program

!3Ddemo    : A short program to illustrate the 'R' parameters which
             can be used in the validation string on a RO3 Template to
             produce those 'fancy' icon borders
3D_Utils   ^ 1.07 Module from Michel Grimminck to provide some fast
             swi's for drawing 3D graphics in 256 colour modes. As
             well as being much faster than the OS (especially for
             dithered objects) it has useful swi's to rotate objects
             and draw in perspective. As all these swi's can be easily
             called from Basic it makes it possible to use vector
             graphics without machine code. As well as good
             documentation there's a demo app in Basic
AmpCalc    = 1.79 Utility from Ainsley Pereira with lots of useful
             functions. Converts SWI number <-> name, ascii code/char,
             convert SWI names in Basic program to numbers, plus
             various BBS/Modem utils
Arm3Detect = Routines in C, Basic and assembler to detect if an ARM3
             chip is present
!ARMCode   = 1.07 Instruction investigator. Lets you 'fiddle' with
             each bit of an instruction and find out the effects
BootA      = A multi purpose 'front end' for non wimp programs.
             Enables them to behave like proper Risc-OS applications
             Comes with a variety of sample apps, eg. FileInf,
             SetType, Lock, Unlock, change LF to CRLF and visa versa,
             convert 1WP to text and visa versa, etc.
Checksum   = 1.01 Generates a checksum for an executable and appends
             some code to it. Helps prevent unauthorised 'hacking'.
!CheckTemp = Shows the sizes of template definitions in a Template
             file
!ConvTmplt = 6.00 Program by Cy Booker to help programmers use anti-
             alias fonts in text icons, convert Interface validation
             strings to RO3, see which icons are outside the windows
             extent and insert 'secret messages' into template files
!CreateApp = 1.04 Helps create an application shell by selecting many
             of the options from a menu
!DAssemble = Very simple desktop assembler by Majid Anwar. There are
             plenty of these about, most far more powerful than this,
             but it doesn't 'install' itelf on the icon bar and takes
             only 32K, so it's very useful if you just want a 'quick
             peep' at something
Disassem   ^ By Darren Salt, this patches the Debugger module so it
             can disassemble the ARM7 instruction set
!DisAssem  = 3.22 Desktop dissasembler, has some nice features. Can
             save disassembled code in text, Basic or AAsm format.
!Disass    = Simple disassembler as a Module so it can be used from
             the CLI outside the desktop
!Dissi     - 2.04M Desktop disassembler which can produce source code
             from any machine code application or module
DragASprite: 2.02 A module from Andrew Clover which improves on
             Acorn's. It's quicker than the original, allows dragging
             of 256 colour sprites, better semi transparent drags, and
             has various configurations.
DragSprite = Info on and an example of the 'DragASprite' SWI in RO3
DrLink     = 1.27 Alternative to Acorns Link. You willl need this if
             you have some sort of compiler but don't have a linker.
Dynamite   ~ 1.15  Module from Straylight which provides a dynamic
             area in the RMA for Modules to use without causing
             fragmentation. This already exists on the RiscPC but not
             other models. Dynamite creates a dynamic area and
             implements a shifting heap which can be compacted
FormEd     : 3.56 From Darren Salt, a much improved version of the
             Risc Squad's much improved version of Acorn's FormEd.
!FormExpnd ^ 1.10 This alters a template file in such a way that it
             can be loaded by your program and, instead of all the
             windows being created, you can create them only when they
             are needed, and delete ones no longer required
!FormSize  = Tells how much space is required for 'Wimp_LoadTemplate'
Formula    = The description says 'it generates Macro-assembler code
             from high level-language-like Commands, which are
             enbedded in other Macro-assembler code'. Documentation is
             *very* vague, and it appears to need the TLA assembler to
             compile the code (see B209).
GraphDemo  = Three Basic programs from Cy Booker to demonstrate
             dithering and colour pickers
!HourMake  = 1.13 From Jon Ribbens to design your own hourglass.
!HourMaker = A program from Simon Heys which lets you create
             customised Hourglass Modules
!IconFlags = Calculates Icon Flag word for all the options available.
!IconNo    ^ Very simple app which just shows the number of the icon
             the pointer is over. There are more complex ones but when
             writing code for button clicks that's all you need
Interface  = 2.0  RM with lots of commands to make your windows and
             menus easier to design and more attractive.
!KillTask  = Aid for Wimp programmers. If a task goes into some sort
             of infinite loop and locks up the system (this couldn't
             happen to you, could it...?) press CTRL-ALT-DEL and the
             current task is killed, returning control without RESET.
MakeSWI    = Simple Basic program that creates a file of Equates of
             all available SWI's in form suitable for AAsm, C or
             Wingpass assembler
!MenuEd    - Helps make the most out of the RISCOS menu system, makes
             using fonts and sprites in menus much easier
!Menus     = Version of David Andrews Menu Editor modified by Paul
             Hobbs to work under RiscOS 3.1
MenuUtils  = A Module that helps you create Menus easily
             from Basic without the need to write your own PROCs.
!MsgCheck  ^ 1.00 Checks message files for token repetition
!OurGlass  = Another utility to let you design your own hourglass
PaneDemo   : This is from Ian Jeffray of Risc Developments and is a
             demonstration (written in clearly commented Basic) of how
             to use Panes in desktop windows. This isn't very well
             described in the PRM's and I've seem so many badly
             constructed windows that fall apart on hi-res screens....
!PC256     = Converts the standard 256 desktop colours to COLOUR and
             TINT. Useful of you want to reproduce one of these
             colours in a non desktop program such as a game
!PollMask  : By Ian Scott, one of those little tools that you always
             meant to write, but somehow never had the time. It simply
             calculates the value of the mask required for Wimp_Poll.
PopUps     = A module which provides shared resource of windows for
             desktop application. These are the type of windows that
             are almost always used by Wimp tasks (Info, SaveAs,
             Colour Picker, Print Dialogue, etc), so they can be used
             by several tasks and not have to be defined by each
             individually. Very easy to use from any language and with
             extensive documentation and demos.
!ProgUtils ^ SWI translator, expression evaluator and ARM instruction
             decoder from Dave Thomas
!PtC       = 1.8 Pascal to C. A DDE utility to convert Pascal source
             code to equivalent C
!Res2Temp  ^ By Kevin Bracey, converts Resource files to Template
             files
!ShellC    = Written as a desktop window in which to run Acorn C v3
             but functions as a general purpose CLI shell window
Short      = A simple program from Sam Kington to compact messages by
             using the Risc OS internal dictionary
ShowFont   = A short Basic routine by Cy Booker to draw text in any
             font anywhere on the screen, designed to be incorporated
             into your own programs.
SpriteGen  = Sample programs for creating a series of sprites for
             animation etc.
!SWIConv2  = Nice SWI name<->number converter. A feature is that the
             'converted' item can be inserted into the keyboard buffer
             which makes it easy to 'type' the name/number into your
             editor when writing programs.
SWIMod     = A module which can convert SWI numbers to names and visa
             versa, list all the SWI's used by a module etc.
!SWIst-num = A desktop app to convert a SWI number to a string or visa
             versa. Saves looking up the PRM's
SWITrace   - Lets you trace the execution of SWI calls.
!TaskKill  = 1.26 Nice Module from Paul Clifford to kill the current
             task. Not only is this invaluable for programmers (those
             who don't have a Risc PC) it's also the only way out when
             you run one of those badly written Demo's or games that
             don't have a proper 'exit' and then remember that you'd
             forgotten to Save chapter 46 of your novel
!TempGrab  = Lets you 'grab' a window off the screen and saves it as a
             sprite. Useful for illustrating Manuals etc.
!TemplEd   = 1.30 Template editor. I would have said it was the best,
             although now you should also take a look at !WinEd on
             B307. As well as letting you choose the templates you
             want to edit from a list it has a 'statistics' window
             giving info about them (including size of indirected
             data) plus 'grid lock' which makes lining up icons
             easier. When creating/editing icons you select features
             from a window instead of going through all those menus.
             Lots of keyboard shortcuts and supports Interface,
             MenuUtils etc.
!TemplRip  ^ 1.00 Grabs windows and local sprites from an application
             Can save a lot of time when designing your own
THHeap     ^ Tony Houghton's Heap management modules.
Trapdoor   ^ A simple but effective algorithm for creating passwords
Useful     ^ A series of Modules by Nicholas Kingsley to perform tasks
             often required by programs.
!Virtual   = By Brian Brunswick and Nick Smith. A replacement for the
             TaskWindow which emulates virtual memory so that a task
             running in this window can be made to believe it has up
             to 24Mb available. Obviously only programs which can be
             run in a Task Window can be used so it's effectively
             restricted to CLI tasks but this does mean that 'memory
             hogs' like the GNU C compiler can be run without massive
             amounts of memory. It's not very efficient and you
             obviously need plenty of spare (fast) HD space. With
             C/AASM source code.
!VMM       = Virtual Memory Management module with SWI's to enable
             programs to use a hard disc as virtual memory. With demo
             files, written in Basic so they're easy to follow, which
             illustrate its use
!WhichCol? = Shows the Colour and Tint of the pixel the mouse pointer
             is over
!WimpExt   = 2.18 Wimp Extensions from Jon Ribbens. A module with a
             lot of SWI's to make programming the Wimp much easier.
             Has calls for most of the things you need to do to create
             a Wimp program. Good documentation that doesn't assume an
             extensive knowledge of the Wimp.
!Wimpy     = 1.00 A utility by Andrew heckford  with a series of tools
             for programmers. Template array/indirected data
             calculator, SWI name <-> number translation, Wimp keycode
             calculator, plus the ability to 'spy' on other apps and
             find out info on windows, icons, etc.
!Wincode   = 2.00 Lets you design a window and then displays the
             various parameters so you can incorporate the design
             directly into your code without using templates.
!WinEd     : 2.10 A new Shareware template editor from Tony Houghton.
             At least as good as TemplEd and probably better (I
             haven't got used to it fully yet but it does have several
             advantages). One particularly nice feature is the ability
             to 'preview' a window. This lets you play around with it,
             click on the buttons, drag it about and scroll it,
             without changing the definition and so saves you the
             trouble of putting it back in its default setting before
             saving the file. Includes good documentation in both text
             and Impression Publisher format. All serious programmers
             should try it.
WinSup     = Module to improve Heap management and help avoid problems
             with heap management which can cause modules to crash
ZRegister  ^ A Module from John Kortink. Tasks 'register' their use of
             a Module and when none are using it the Module is
             deleted, freeing up space in the RMA. Often this can't be
             done by the task as it won't know if some other task is
             using the Module
Pascal_tut = Again from Conorado Systems and similar to the C Tutor. Not
             so many pages or examples as Pascal is much simpler. Mainly
             aimed at the PC and Borlands Turbo Pascal in particular but
             as it's fairly basic stuff this isn't important.

  Program.Animation

!Animate   = From Tony Gibson this lets you design sprites for use in
             games. These can be viewed in an animated sequence so you
             can get a good idea of how they will 'perform'
CodeMaker  = This is an application from Frank Lyonnet of ARM's TECH.
             Given a Mode 13 sprite it produces code to display it. This
             code is a textfile in AAsm format, designed to be assembled
             and linked with C, etc. However, because it's a textfile
             you could easily convert it to Basic Assembler format
!Extractor = Program from Andrew Jackson to 'extract' the unwanted
             data from a standard sprite, leaving only the raw data
             suitable for use in fast sprite plotting routines.
GameSuite =  A collection of tools and utilities from Andy Southgate.
             The main ones are -
  FastSprite A module for fast plotting of sprites. It's twice as fast
             as the OS routines but gives the non expert programmer a
             much quicker system. Sprites can be created with !Paint
             and then converted into the format used by FastSprite.
             Includes a short demo application.
   Stasis    Provides sound support for games programmers.
   Amnesia   Lots of utilities including memory management, etc.

  Program.Assembler

68KAsm     = An assembler for the Motorola 68000 and 68010. It will
             now be possible for Archimedes owners to write machine
             code programs for A***a and A***i computers without
             needing to actually TOUCH the things. You could also
             write programs for Mac's without spending about £300 for
             an Apple assembler.
!ARMmaker  = A new AOF or Binary single pass assembler by Steven
             Haslam which can handle floating point instructions.
             Mainly for use with the DDE but can be used on it's own
             to produce 'stand alone' code. Source code syntax is
             similar to the DDE assembler. A not very readable but
             reasonably detailed manual is provided.
!AS        = 1.21 Assembler by Nicklas RÖjemo intended to be used as
             part of Acorns DDE package to assemble AOF files for
             linking with C or Pascal. This fills a major gap in Acorn
             C which lacks an inline assembler. Includes full C source
!asm05 and !asm11 = These are cross-assemblers based on the Motorola
             Freeware assemblers for 68HC05 and 65HC11 processors. They
             need DDE Utils to work properly but they can be used from
             the CLI without it. Comes with C source and full docs for
             the originals but limited Archimedes docs and some
             examples. The complete DOS versions are also included.
extASM     : Extended Assembler. This is a useful Shareware package
             which can also assemble to AOF format
ExtBas     ^ Module from Adrian Lees which patches Basic in RO3.1 and
             RO3.5 to add FP and ARM 610/700 instructions to the Basic
             assembler
!FP_Prog   = A Basic procedure library to let you use FP opcodes in
             Basic assembler programs
!LabelChk  = 1.24 Checks Basic assembler program for duplicate labels.
!QuickSrc  = Produces a short Basic Assembler program of a 'Module
             header' and saves you the trouble of remembering the
             correct offset for all those important pointers
SAsm       = 1.70  Multi-File ARM code Macro Assembler. With
             comprehensive manual on disc and examples. with improved
             Macro's and symbol x­ref and can be run from the RMA as a
             Module. Has extra directives to help it to be run from
             within the desktop. Registered version allows the use of
             an external macro library. Can now produce an assembler
             listing file and lists of all labels and the duplicate
             label list can be sent to files. Can now access previous
             or next sets of Local lables. Includes a new Desktop
             front end so it can now operate entirely within the
             desktop.
TASM       = Table driven cross-assembler for 8 bit micros with tables
             for 8048, 8051, 6502, 8085, Z80, 6805, 6800/01 etc. With
             documentation and examples. Note - you need a C compiler
TLA        = A simple procedure based single pass AOF format
             assembler. Primarily intended for writing modules to be
             linked with 'C' without paying the high price for Acorns
             DDE assembler

  Program.Basic

Algorithms = Four short Basic programs demostrating various
             algorithms. These can all be 'hacked' for use in your own
             programs. The first has four sort routines, Heap, Shell,
             Quick and Select, the second three different searches,
             Brute Force, KMP and Boyer-Moore. There are also programs
             to demonstrate the use of the 'simulated annealing'
             technique and searching for the complex zeros of and
             arbitrary function of one variable using the Muller
             method. (Don't ask, I have no idea!)
!BasConv   = From J.harston this converts between standard BBC Basic,
             Z80/PC format BBC Basic and text
!BasCrunch = 1.02 Basic cruncher by Ragnar Hafstaa. Not as
             comprehensive as !BC but it's quite fast and works
             reasonably well, although programs sometimes fall over
             when you try to compress variable and/or function names.
BasEntry   = Basic library Routines by Hugo Mills equivalent to argc
             and argv in C
!Basic86   = Program to convert Basic 86 as used on the RM Nimbus and
             Z88 to true BBC Basic
!BasicLib  = Actually a library of Functions to assemble floating
             point instructions using the Basic assembler. The best of
             these that I have seen
!BasicTask : Application to launch single tasking Basic programs with
             output trapped in a Task window
BasicUtils = Collection of short Basic programs to perform various
             tasks. Includes an assortment of disc readers which may
             be of interest to programmers who need to read/write non
             standard formats
!BBC-GW    = 1.40 Non desktop program that tries to convert BBC basic
             programs to GW Basic. Of course many programs can't be
             converted but this often works with straightforward ones
!BC        : 1.69 Very comprehensive (and fast) Basic compressor and
             cross-referencer. The output is much smaller (which also
             helps it to run faster) and it is almost impossible to
             'hack' because of the methods used. A comprehensive
             manual is provided as a textfile and a Publisher
             document.
!Blib II   = 1.07 Basic Library manager. Comes with a set of libraries,
             full documentation and an example program. The Author
             describes it as 'a sort of Basic linker' as unlike the
             normal Basic Library it only appends the routines
             required to the 'core' program. An essential utility for
             the Basic programmer.
!BSquasher = 1.18 A Basic squasher from Mohsen Alshayef. Unfortunately
             it's billed as 'beta test' and although it works there
             aren't any options, so it's 'all or nothing'. The problem
             is that it sometimes produces code which won't work,
             giving 'missing variable' errors
!DeRem     = Simple app to strip out the REM's from a Basic program
DRWimp     = A series of Basic programming aids and a library of
             routines from Andrew Ayre
!EventShell = 2.02  A major programming tool by Paul Hobbs. It consists
             of the !ShellSys directory which contains various
             'library' utilities which are used by programs in a similar
             manner to the RiscOS !System directory. This lets you write
             Wimp applications in Basic without needing to write all
             your own routines to handle the Wimp, fonts, response to
             Wimp events, etc. If you don't have the PRM's this is
             essential. Has many new features and is much more powerful
             and easier to use than the original. Includes a dedicated
             debugger and several example applications written using
             !ShellSys which not only act as demos but perform useful
             functions. With documentation as text files, an Impression
             document and in StrongHelp format. An extremely useful
             package and is highly recommended to anyone who wants to
             program the Wimp, especially if you don't have the PRM's
!FP_Prog   = A Basic procedure library to let you use FP opcodes in
             Basic assembler programs
!GW-Q      = 1.00 Converts a GWBASIC program to QBASIC format. This
             has the additional advantage that QBASIC files are plain
             text so you can look at them in an Arc text editor
!MakeApp2  = 1.00 Disguises a Basic program to look like compiled
             code. A much improved version by Dick Alstein and is
             based upon Stuart Hickinbottom's original.
MathsFuncs = A series of Basic Functions which can be used to simplify
             complex real number problems
NPLib      = 1.11  A comprehensive Basic Library from Chris Coe of
             Norsoft Productions. This has lots of procedures and
             functions to perform most of the tasks required when
             programming the Wimp. NOT for novices since it assumes a
             basic understanding of Wimp programming
ShadowLib  ^ A nice Basic procedure library from Simon Osborne
!Shrink    = Basic program compactor
!SpeedySWI = Changes textual SIW's in a Basic program to numeric
             equivalents to make the program run faster.
!Squish    = 2.38 Basic 'squasher' by Kevin and Stuart Swinton. Seems
             quite good but is *very* fussy about syntax and gets
             thoroughly confused with multiple-entry FN's and PROC's

  Program.C

AndyLib    ^ A collection of routines to aid writing Wimp programs by
             Andy Armstrong
!ArmMUL    = From Dean Sivell this uses shifts and adds to produce
             multiplication. C source code is included and it would be
             useful to include these routines in your own code for
             fixed multiplication
!BugView   = 0.65 App from Nickvan Someren with a library of routines
             which you can add to your C code. The main application
             then displays debugging info via Wimp messages
C++Lib     = A modified library for GNU C++ 2.4.5.with all the ANSI C
             library routines included as 'extern C' so they will link
             properly with code compiled using C++. I understand that
             source code is available but it is not included.
CCompile   - a desktop front-end for Acorn's ANSI C compiler v.3
C_Utils    = A library of C routines. No real documentation although
             you should be able to work out what's what from the
             header files. Contains a version of getopt and regular
             expression routines from the Free Software Foundation
             plus a profiler
DNSquery   ^ A library of routines to provide DNS lookups
mkproto    = Useful utility for C programmers. Creates a file of
             prototype declarations of all the functions in your
             source files. By #include'ing this file they will be
             automatically declared
HeaderGen  ^ 1.10 By Frank Fohl, generates header files of C and
             Assembler source files
!Imagine   ^ 1.10 A project management utility from R.F.Windley. This
             is intended to be used as a replacement for the Desktop C Make
             utility with lots of extra features to make compiling
             projects easier
IndentSrc  ^ A RISC-OS port of Unix indent, which automatically
             formats C source code.
Makatic    ^ 2.10 A set of command line tools by Julian Smith to
             automate much of the management of C. C++ and assembler
             projects.
!NetLib    ^ Billed as 'the programmer's interface to FreeNet', this
             is a function call libary for C programmers
Rink       ^ 0.10 A much simpler (and perhaps easier to use) run time
             linker from Ben Summers.
Sockets    ^ 3.00 Acorn's C library for Internet TCP/IP sockets
!Stripper  = Removes comments from C source. Useful if you're running
             short of disc space or want to pass on your source code
             but want to make it as awkward as possible for anyone to
             understand it (not difficult with C anyway!).
StubsHack  = Lets you redirect calls to malloc, realloc, calloc, free
             etc. to your own routines at runtime. very useful for
             debugging if nothing else. Also includes ** HeapGraph **
             which makes the program send info about memory allocation
             calls to a file. Source is included
UnixLib    = 3.6e A complete replacement ANSI compliant C library from
             C.Rogers for use with Acorn ANSI C versions 3 or 4.
             Incorporated a subset of the UNIX system call interface and
             some System V and 4.3 BSD C libraries. Absolutely
             invaluable if you are porting UNIX programs to the Arc.
C_Tutor      From Conorado Systems. More than 100 pages of text laid out
             as a book with about a hundred short example 'C' programs.
             Written with the PC in mind and transferred from three PC
             Shareware discs. As it deals with basics rather than
             advanced programming almost everything is applicable to 'C'
             on any computer.
C++_Tutor  = From Coronado Systems. Again ported from the PC but as 'C'
             is meant to be portable this shouldn't really be a problem.
             Comes with lots of short example programs. As the only C++
             compiler at present is the GNU version (B194) and that
             needs a LOT of memory there might not be a massive demand
             for this but if you do have the GNU C++ it's going to be
             much cheaper than buying a book in order to find out what
             all the fuss is about.
DeskLib    = 2.14 A set of ANSI C and Assembler files which add to
             and/or replace parts of the libraries supplied with Acorn
             DDE C. This has been compiled by a team of people
             including Jason Williams, David Pilling, Tim Browse,
             Keith Marlow etc. so it is a professionally produced
             library which will (hopefully) be added to and improved.
             If you program in C on the arc then you NEED this, don't
             struggle with the libraries supplied with Acorn's C
GNU C++     = Version 2.7.2 of the Free Software Foundation C++
             compiler. It's a real memory hog. Ideally you need some
             sort of VMM or 8Mb. However it includes both the C++
             compiler and a 'standard' C compiler. The standard compiler
             works very well with 4Mb and is faster and better than the
             Northcroft compiler (Acorn C). It compiles to standard AOF
             format so can be linked with files produced with other Acorn
             compilers. Comes with Unix libraries and a copy of a RiscOS
             library which was intended to be used with an earlier
             version and is NOT fully compatible, although many parts
             could be recompiled or altered, and so provides much useful
             material.
!Vista     ^ By David Allinson, this is a library of C++ functions for
             both Easy C++ and Acorn C++. Includes full source code
             and examples.
WackyTalky ^ A comprehensive real-time linking system which creates a
             new type of RM that can make assembling/compiling/linking
             much faster and easier.

  Program.DDE

AOF Utils  = Three utilities for Acorn Object Format files. Suppress
             or Retain global names and Analyse the file
!BackThrow = 'throwback backthrower', ie. takes files created by the
             DDE throwback system and feeds them back to the DDE Utils
             module so you can break off in the middle of compiling a
             large program and continue later.
!DataToAOF = 0.07 Useful DDE tool by Paul Fidler to convert most types
             of Data file to AOF format so you can link them with
             other DDE object files
!DisasmAOF ^ From George Saliaris, a disassembler for AOFs which
             produces output in Objasm format. Very useful for finding
             out why some bits of your 'C' program run like a snail
!FDA       = A DDE file disassembler
decaof     = C source from Andy Duplain for a program to imitate
             Acorn's decaof utility that is part of the DDE.
Fronts     = Really three DDE utilities, Data2Asm, Sprite2Asm and
             Temp2Asm. As their names imply these enable Data, Sprite
             and Template files to be converted to a format compatible
             with AOF and so suitable for linking with DDE assembler
             or comiped languages
!Mnemosyne = A set of DDE tools to help find memory 'leaks' in
             programs and to locate memory-hogging functions by
             monitoring malloc/free/etc calls
!OC        = This is a DDE utility to remove most comments and
             whitespace from C source. The resulting code is just
             about unreadable, but it compiles OK. Probably useful if
             you have limited disc space available (but keep the
             original safe!)
!Peek      = Another DDE disassembler.
!Utils     = DDE utility to enable the use of OS commands within the
             desktop.

  Program.Debug

!AmpDebug  : 1.00 A desktop debugger by Ainsley Pereira. Consists of a
             module which enables programs to report their status so
             you can insert calls to this in your code
!DBAssist  = 1.02 Debug Assist from Keith Hall. By adding a special
             routine to your program this will display info about
             critical variables while the program is running. Examples
             are shown for use with 'C' or Basic.
Error      = A module from Armen Software to trap Fatal errors. It
             obviously can't stop the error happening but it will try
             to prevent the Task from quitting. This means that with
             most Basic programs you can still keep your data intact
             which gives you a chance to find out what went wrong!
!Handles   = Displays the handles of the window and icon under the
             mouse pointer
!InfoScoop = When you hit the SHIFT key this displays info about the
             object the mouse is over in a scrollable window. Even
             better, you can save the contents of this window as a
             text file.
IntModule  = 1.10 A module by Steve Hoare which tries to stop the
             current task with a specified keypress. Can be used to
             kill a runaway program without pressing RESET. Complete
             with source code so you can modify the key(s)
!Memory    = Simple but useful desktop MZAP by Peter Millerchip
!Messy     ^ Again, very straightforward but useful debugging tool.
             Displays the last five messages sent around the desktop
!Monitor   = 1.00 A program that allows you to disassemble, search or
             execute machine code programs. Can single step programs
             and alter code with an in-line assembler. No completely
             bug-free but works for most 'normal' code and can save a
             lot of eyestrain staring at your source code trying to
             find out why the %$#@&'ed thing keeps crashing
!Obey      = Simple app which displays the OS variable Obey$Dir in a
             desktop window. Can help to track down problems with
             complex !Run and !Boot sequences
Prot0      = Two simple Basic program to help recover from a crash if
             a program runs wild and corrupts Page Zero
!Snoop     - 1.00 Lets you snoop on various wimp parameters from the
             desktop
!Spy       = Interrogates Wimp applications and finds out window
             handles, task id's etc.
!Status    = 1.03 Monitors Wimp messages and displays them in a
             desktop window
!TaskMsg   ^ Potentially a very useful tool from James Ponder. It lets
             you send messages to tasks, so, for example, you can put
             commands in your !Boot app to load files into editors and
             do other things not normally possible.
!Trace     = A utility from Pete Goodwin which allows Basic variables
             to be output to environment variables. This means that if
             the Task crashes the value of the variable is preserved.
!Tracker   ^ No, nothing to do with music, but a tool which displays
             special debugging information output by a program being
             tested.
!VecScope  = Monitors the machine vectors. Useful for finding out
             what's going on while a program is running.
!WimpAid   = A1.1 Useful little program from Graham Crow to show
             various info about the Window the mouse is over
!WimpDebug = 1.21 Debugging tool for Wimp applications
!WimpInfo  = 1.00 Fron Dick Alstein, another app to give info about
             the object the mouse pointer is over. This one also
             displays various useful things about the icons as well
!WimpLook  = 1.01 Displays info about other windows and icons on the
             desktop. Just move the mouse pointer over any icon or
             window to find out all about it
!WimpMon   = 1.34 An application to monitor events passed by the Wimp.
             Extremely useful debugging tool
!WinLook   = 1.09 Yet another one, this time from David Gilbert

  Program.Hacking

FindBL     = A program to find all the branches to a certain address
             in a program. Can be used to disable all calls to a
             certain piece of unwanted of faulty code in a program
             where you don't have the source
!GHZap     : Searches through program code and disables all those
             'UpdateMemC' calls put in by incompetent programmers
             which crash the machine with RO3.
!Hunter    = Another 'hacking tool'. Searches through code for a
             particular item or mnemonic. Particularly useful for
             those 'UpdateMC' calls beloved of Demo programmers which
             crash the computer with RO3
Strings    ^ Tries to display any text strings in a file. Useful for
             finding messages in code
!TemplRip  ^ 1.00 Grabs windows and local sprites from an application.
             Can save a lot of time when designing your own

  Program.Language

ADA        = A port of the Free Software Foundation ADA translator and
             interpreter based on version 1.11.2. ported by Peter
             Burwood. Includes library and DDE controls. There is
             extensive documentation but this refers mainly to the UNIX
             version, although, there is quite a bit of Acorn specific
             stuff as well
!AForth    = Forth compiler from Mads Meisner-Jensen. Looks quite good.
             Some documentation but familiarity with the langue is
             assumed
!APL       = 1.1 An Archimedes release of the Advanced Programming
             Language. As usual with APL little documentation is
             provided other than system specific items. You are expected
             to buy the Manuals from the Authors
!ARMForth  = A desktop Forth compiler by Rob Turner of the University
             of Hull. Unlike many this has good manuals and some
             example programs. Will even run from floppy disc.
             Compiles to ARM code and has an inline assembler.
!ArmBob    = 1.03 This is a port by G.C.Wraith of David Betz's Bob
             1.5. Bob is an object-oriented language with a syntax
             aimilar to C++. It is really intended as an 'easy
             introduction' to OOP for people alradey experienced with
             C or Basic. Because it is intended as a teaching tool the
             documentation is good
BCPL       = Like the Pascal compiler on B111 this has been released as
             'public domain' as Acorn no longer wish to support it.
             There's no proper documentation and it's CLI driven but it
             does come complete with source code as well as the
             executables. This program is rather old and predates the
             AOF format so unlike Pascal it can't produce 'linkable'
             files but the advantage is that it compiles directly to
             executable code so you can use it on its own. I've never
             used BCPL so I don't know how good it is but I'm told that
             it works well and is fairly 'stable'. As BCPL is actually the
             precursor to 'C' it's probably a very good (and cheap!)
             starting point it you are new to compiled languages.
Bison      = 1.20 A port of the GNU project parser generator which is
             the GNU version of UNIX yacc
FLEX       = 2.30 Fast lexical analyser generator. A tool for generating
             programs which recognise lexical patterns in text. Creates
             output as C source code
!Forth     = 1.20 Implementation of FORTH with a compiler into ARM
             code. Comes with several examples though little
             descriptive text. See also TILE Forth on B095
!Forthmacs = A rather nice looking Forth compiler from Hanno Schwalm.
             This has a good tutorial which dosn't assume any previous
             knowledge of Forth. It seems to have lots of features,
             including a debugger
GAWK       = GNU port of the AWK programming language. Includes full 'C'
             source code
GNUst      = GNU Smalltalk v 1.1.1 Billed as a 'reasonably faithful
             implementation of Smalltalk-80'. Includes a 'tutorial'
             which, although it assumes familiarity with compuer
             languages, would enable anyone moderately proficient to use
             the program
GNU_Scheme = This is version 4e1 of the GNU Scheme interpreter. It
             includes various additional bits and pieces including some
             Archimedes extensions and demos, plus extensions for Turtle
             graphics. Also included is JACAL, which is a symbolic
             algebra package designed to work with GNU Scheme. I don't
             know anything about Scheme but I would anticipate that,
             like most other GNU ports, it will be extremely powerful
             and comprehensive.
!Gofer     = 2.28 The documentation for this says it's 'a Haskell-like
             functional programming language in the style of Orwell
             and Miranda but adds an overloading system and proper
             continuation-based I/O to the Orwell system taught at
             Oxford'. So there! - Oh yes, it's by Mark Jones, this
             port is from Bryan Scattergood and there's nearly half a
             megabyte of documentation plus full C source code.
GRS        = programming language - GRS is an object oriented language which
             supports metaclasses and meta level programming in an
             incremental environment
HOPE       = Imperial Colleges HOPE language. With user manuals.
HUProlog   = Humbolt Prolog. Again with full C source code.
Icon       = An implementation of the Icon programming language for the
             Archimedes ported by Paul Moore. Supports large integers,
             co-expressions, keyboard functions, system() etc. Includes
             about 350K of documentation, mainly by Ralph Griswold plus
             the source code.
!J         = 3.4a The J programming language is very similar to APL.
             Once again very little descriptive documentation is
             provided. However !J does multi task in the desktop
!LittleST  = A port of Tim Budd's Little Smalltalk by Geoff Lane. The
             Author admits it's crude and probably contains bugs but it
             appears to work. C Source included.
!MUMPS     = An interactive interpreter for the MUMPS language by
             H.H.Verweij. This is a database programming language. It
             doesn't multi-task but it does support more than one
             running program internally. With extensive documentation
!PascalS   : A port of the Pascal S compiler/interpretter. Almost no
             documentation (although source code is included) and
             appears to to be unattributed
PERL       = 3.0 Practical Extraction and Report Language.
             An interpreted language optimized for scanning text files,
             extracting information, and printing reports based upon
             that information. Combines the best features of C, SED, AWK
             and SH. Full manual in TeX format plus an ascii version and
             complete C source code.
SBProlog   = 3.1 Archimedes port of SB-Prolog system written for UNIX
             in the Dept of Computer Science at the University of
             Arizona. Comprehensive manual and a few example scripts plus
             C source code.
TILE_Forth - A 32-bit implementation of the Forth-83 Standard,
XLisp      = 2.1d Version of Lisp from Tom Almy.  Based on the version
             on B150 from David Betz with various enhancements and bug
             fixes. Contains full documentation and 'C' source code
XScheme    = 0.22 Version of Scheme programing language for the
             Archimedes by David Michael Betz. Complete with full C
             source. I don't know how good it is because I have no
             experience of Scheme and although there is a good Manual
             this assumes previous knowledge of the language, however
             it looks like a thorough implementation.

   Raytrace

!3DEditor  : 2.16 Provides an interactive front end for raytracers
             like QRT. A major upgrade from the earlier version with
             several example files and a full Manual as a large
             Impression document
DBW_Render = 2.00 Desktop ray tracer. This was ported from the Amiga and
             contains a selection of examples and the full 'C' source
             code. It is actually the program upon which many others
             programs are based.
DKB       =  2.12 The first major 'PD' raytracer. Written by David K
             Buck and ported to the Arc by John Kortink. Many of the
             later programs are based upon this. I was asked for this by
             an ex Amiga user who has seen the light and where this is a
             popular program. CLI driven program so not as easy to use
             as QRT but still highly regarded.
!ECQRT     = 1.02 Converts Euclid files to QRT
FracTrace  - 2.28 displays fractals by raytracing
!QRT       = Quick Ray Tracer 1.5c Easy to use image generation system.
             Comes complete with manual and a number of examples. Not as
             comprehensive or powerful as POV or RayShade but much
             easier to use and so ideal for the less experienced.
!Ray3D     ^ 2.00 This is a new program from Robert Taylor. It is a
             development of the program that appeared in Archimedes
             World last year. It has a graphical front end which
             creates a file for the RayShade program (also supplied).
             It ios therefore very easy to create complex 3D images
             without needing to write complex scripts. Probably not as
             powerful as POV but *much* easier to use
PoVray     = 1.00 Probably the best PD/Shareware ray tracer currently
             available. Follow up to DKB Tracer. Arguably as good as
             similar commercial packages. The docs mostly refer to
             PC/Amiga versions so some of the references, particularly
             to filenames and directory structures, are different for
             this version. Although some complex images can take hours
             to render (particularly with an ARM2) POV multitasks in the
             Desktop so you can carry on with other things while it's
             working
!Model     = 2.00 Used to create scenes for POVray. This lets you
             'draw' a scene and !Model then turns this into a script
             file for POV
PoV 2.2    = This is Acorn version 1.5, equivalent to PC version 2.2 of
             the Persistance of Vision raytracing package. There are so
             many  enhancements and additions that I shan't even attempt
             to list them. The earlier version has been retained, mainly
             because it was a full desktop multi-tasking application
             whereas the new program is CLI driven, ported directly
             from the PC version, so it's not so 'Acornised' as version
             1.0. You  don't need to use it from the command line
             because it has a desktop  front end which does all the hard
             work for you, but this does mean  that it's not
             multi-tasking (although you can stop part-way through  and
             carry on later). Although there are obviously differences
             in the source file syntax  because of the extra features it
             can also accept 'old type' source  files so you can still
             use your old scenes.
RayShade   = 4.00 Now a multi tasking Desktop program instead of command
             line driven. Perhaps not as good as PoV but still very good.

  Screen

!Camera    = Takes a 'snapshot' of the screen as a sprite
!CustomVDU + 1.24 A mode selector and creator(?) but no instructions.
!EasyMode  : A screen mode editor/creator from Gary Lee. Intended for
             people who understand how the Arc screen modes are set up
             and is NOT for the novice. If you want to write a Mode
             Module it can save a lot of time fiddling with parameters
!EasyMode  ^ An improvement on the Mode Picker for the Risc
             PC. Instead of a small window with menus for colours and
             resolutions it gives a 'proper' selection window, plus
             mode selection by 'hot key'
!Interlace - (2.15) Allows the use of multisync modes on a standard
             monitor by interlacing
!MakeModes ^ Acorn's mode creator for the Risc PC
!Mode      = 1.04 Described by the Author as 'the most technically
             advanced screen mode changer known', ie. click on it to
             change mode
!ModeBar   = 1.1 Simple mode selector which lets you choose from up to
             five screen modes
!ModeDef   = 1.00 Mode definer. Creates a RM for a new screen mode to
             your own definition
!ModeMan   = 1.32 A desktop Mode selector
!ModeUtil  = 0.11 Lets you give names to your favourite screen modes
             and select them from a menu.
!ModeView  = Simple program to replace the Palette icon with one which
             shows the current screen mode
!MultiEmul = 1.01 Displays a hi res sprite on a lo res monitor
!MultiScrn ^ Utility from Michael Ellis to extend the desktop. The RO3
             desktop lets you move windows outside the visible area.
             This prog lets you have several 'views' of the desktop,
             some of which can be of this 'outside' part
!MultiSync = Another module which lets you display modes 18, 19, 20
             and 21 on a normal monitor
!OldModes  = For Risc PC users only, add a menu of 'old style' mode
             numbers to the mode picker so you can just select them
             when using badly behaved software then needs a 'standard'
             mode instead of having to type in the number
!Palette+  = Screen mode info
QMC        = 1.00 Quick Mode Change, makes it easier to change between
             modes from the desktop
Schwoosher : Lets you create very large screen modes where the screen
             you actually see is a 'window' onto the full screen. The
             most unusual feature of this program is that although
             it's from SICK as much as 25% of the instructions are
             concerned with explaining the program and it's possible
             to understand them!
!Scrnmode  = 3.00 Opens a window showing all available screen modes.
             You can then select the required mode by clicking on it
!Selector  - 256 colour selector
!SnapShot  = 1.00 Takes a 'snapshot' of the desktop with all the
             windows, menu's etc.
!Switcher  = Just lets you 'switch' between two screen modes of your
             choice. As most people ue one of two modes 99% of the
             time this does what's required with the minimum of fuss.
!UniMode2  : 2.00 This looks like a very comprehensive screen mode
             creator. There is extensive documentation, not only for
             the program but also for the VIDC, including a lot of
             stuff from the PRM's
!VIDCmodes = The program which accompanied the Atomwide Video Enhancer
             now placed in the 'Public Domain' so you can use it to
             enhance your own display if you have a later model with a
             multisync monitor
!WinScreen ~ Lets you have several desktop 'screens' and switch
             between them. Much better than programs like 'Largeness'
             which can get a bit confusing. If you don't have a hi-res
             monitor but want a bbiiggg desktop this will be useful

  Screen.Blankers

!ACHSave   : 1.01 Useful screen saver from Andrew Heckford. Doesn't
             take much RAM and can 'fall back' to the standard RO3
             blanker if there isn't enough RAM available to operate.
BlankCtrl  = Easy control of the RO3 screen blanker. Saves having to
             load !Config to enable/disable it
!BurnIn    = Screen saver
!DarkHorse = 1.03 Nice screen saver with some good graphics screens.
             All functions are 'user configurable' and you can write
             your own screens. As it only loads one screen at a time
             it uses a lot less RAM than most of the alternatives. The
             program contains twelve screens complete with source
             code. Several more 'packs' are available as 'Individual'
             items (see DH_pack...)
!DimWit    - a Desktop screen saver
!Hangfire  = Good screen blanker. Comes with a selection of pretty
             pictures or you can make your own.
!Lifeguard = Another last screen saver. After ages without any there
             are now dozens. Quite nice with some interesting screens.
!Lunch     = 0.32 Out to Lunch - screen blanker
!Saviour   ~ Simple screen saver which displays a starfield when on.
!SmallSave ^ A 'small, fast, screensaver' from Andrew Berry. Works OK
             and doesn't hog either too much RAM or a place on the
             iconbar

  Screen.NewModes

!BigModes  = Four new 800x600 screen modes for multisync monitors with
             2, 4, 12 or 16 colours by Martyn Thorpe
DeskModes  = 2.1 Creates new 16 colour modes with 84, 88, 92 or 96
             columns and 32, 33, 34 or 36 lines. Ideal for desktop
             with standard monitor
ModeMods   = Two modules giving a total of nineteen new modes between
             them in 2, 4, 16 or 256 colours

  Sound

!Compress  = 1.50 A sample compressor/decompressor from David Radford.
             Helps reduce the enormous amount of disc space taken up
             by high quality sound samples
!Control   = Another last program to control the internal speaker
!DSEdit    = 1.04 Raw digitised sound editor. Comes with a selection
             of examples from Monty Python and BlackAdder.
!EasySound = 0.01 Program by G.Lee to play sound samples
!Effex     = Paul Mason's acclaimed sound sample player/editor. Can
             cut and paste, mix, and add special effects
!Flux      ^ 1.30 Billed as a 'sound to light display' this program
             from Peter Knight plays DSym or Tracker/Protracker files
             and then displays some nice graphics effects in time to
             the music
!HDSamples : 0.87 Hard Drive Samples. A sound sample player that works
             direct from disc so it doesn't tie up huge amounts of RAM
             with large samples. Although it is primarily intended to
             work from a hard disc it will work from any type of
             drive, even over a network
             Also included s !HDSmerger which joins samples together
!Play      = 1.01 This appears to be a sample player (no instructions)
             from John Sinclair
!Player    = Non desktop program to play tunes. Also Splits the tune
             up into its constituent parts so they can be manipulated.
!SampConv  = 2.13 Contverts between many commonly used sound sample
             formats. Copes with many 'foreign' types as well as
             native Archimedes.
!SampleChk = Some ported sound samples don't have a length exactly
             divisible by 4, which can cause them to crash. This tries
             to fix the problem
!Say       = Speech synthesis program. Just type the text in a desktop
             window to hear it.
!ShowTrack = 1.02 Combines functions of an oscilloscope and 64 band
             spectrum analyser to display output of background music
             players. Really needs Arm 3 but works with slower
             machines at lower refresh rate
!Sound     = 2.1 From Richard Brain. I think this is a program to
             manipulate sound samples but as the Author couldn't be
             bothered to write any instructions I can't be bothered to
             try it. Hopefully someone will find it useful
SOX        ^ SOund eXchange. This is a CLI driven utility ported from
             the PC. It converts sound samples between different
             formats and can handle Sound Blaster, .VOC, IRCAM, SUN
             .au, DEC .au, AIFF, HCOM, Soundtool, and others. Can also
             carry out various other operations on the files.
             Documentation is a bit cryptic because it's not been
             'Acornised', but is understandable. Includes C source
!SpeakCtrl = Switches the speaker on and off
!Speaker   = Another speaker on/off program
!Speaker   = Very simple program to turn the speaker On or Off. It
             doesn't actually load, just runs from disc and changes
             its application sprite to tell you if the speaker is On
             or Off.
!Spectr+   = Does a rough power spectrum estimation
!STModFix  = Another program to try to fix problems in ported
             Soundtrackers from Carl Declerck
!StopST    = Just stops tracker modules
!STrename  = Renames Tracker modules
!SysBeep   = 1.28 Lets you set the pitch, duration and volume of the
             'beep' sound
!Trk_Print = Again from Tony Gibson, prints Patters, Samples or
             Sequences from a Tracker
!Volume    = Controls the volume

  Sound.Samples

Hundreds of assorted sound samples in a variety of formats from raw
digtised samples to ready-made Modules.

  Technical

!AnyRC     ^ Very useful program from P.E.Marshall. It calculates two
             resistors (E12 or E24) required to make an intermediate
             resistance. Parallel and serial options are given.
!A>B>C     ^ "The concentrations of the three components A,B, and C are
             calculated for the system consisting of two sequential
             non reversible first order reactions during the specified
             time period, and the resulting concentrations can be
             displayed graphically."
ACL        - Linear circuit filter analyser
ArmSI      = 3.46H Improved version of SI which shows the type of
             computer and equipment and calculates speed index etc.
!AutoPCB   = Program by Pete Goodwin to create a Drawfile of a double
             sided PCB with autorouting. The input is in the form of a
             text file. No instructions but the methods can be seen
             from the examples provided. Complete with C source.
BogoMIPS   ^ This displays the machines speed in Bogo MIPS. Probably
             of immense use to the 'my computer is better than your
             computer' mob but no good to anyone else. Still, it does
             come with the C source code ....
!Circuit   ^ Rather good desktop program by J.Robbins for drawing
             circuit diagrams. Can save the circuit as a Drawfile for
             printing. Large library of components. Very easy to use.
!Engine    = An engine power calculator
!IsoMass   ^ 1.30 By Chris Johnson, calculates from a chemical formula
             the abundance of each of the isotopic masses and displays
             the data both as a listing and as a bargraph.
PCB        = A complete PCB designing package
!Resistor  = Draws a picture of a resistor
             with the appropriate colour codes from your specified
             resistance/tolerance from James Hunter
!RasMol    ^ 1.20 A full multi-tasking port of the popular molecular
             graphics program by Roger Sayle. The Acorn version is by
             Martun Wurther. Includes various examples and scripts.
RLaB       ^ Our Lab. A *VERY* powerful package released under the Free
             Software Foundation licence. To quote, it 'brings the power
             of stable matrix maths tools plus a stable data plotting
             facility together' It's CLI  driven (normally run in a
             Taskwindow) that uses a structured language  for input.
             This can be either typed in directly or as a file. There
             are built in functions and these can also be user defined.
             Output can  be either to the terminal (ie. the Taskwindow)
             or can be sent directly  to GNUplot, which will give a
             graphical display. Documentation is  provided as lots of
             text files, many of which relate to other  versions, and a
             50 page short manual supplied as DrawFiles.
RS232Opto  ^ This is an Impression document (with a Text version)
             which explains how to construct a serial port opto-
             isolator. Ideal for school projects, ensures they don't
             blow up the computer if something is connected wrongly
!Spectro   ^ 1.22 A mass spectrometer simulation by Richard Sharpe
!Spectrum  ^ By Robert Seago, shows information about the
             electromagnetic spectrum
!Statisix  ^ 1.02 Program by Robert Seago to perform statistical
             analysis. Can take input data in the form of a CSV or
             Text file or it can be entered directly. Only a limited
             number of functions are supported
!RPCalc    : Reverse Polish Calculator from Circle Software. Anyone
             old enough to remember the original Sinclair pocket
             calculator (about a quarter of a century ago) will know
             what RPN is, and will not thank anyone for reminding
             them. Still, it is a fully functional calculator.
ScanMemory = Scans all available RAM and reports on the location of
             the main areas, fragmentation etc. It *just* works on the
             RiscPC but makes too many assumptions to work properly.
!Spectro   = Billed as a Mass Spectrometer Simulation from Richard
             Sharpe.
!BSpice    = Berkeley Spice 3A6, Arc port by FKW and ETJ van de Pol as
             BSpice v1.24.  The famous ciruit simulator from the
             Electrical Engineering dept of the University of
             California.
!Nutmeg    = 1.00 A program to take the output from Spice and create
             diagrams using the data.

  TextUtils

1wpTXT     = 1.03  by Andrea Gall, convert text to and from 1WP format
!AMFSpell  = 1.76 A 65,000+ word spelling checker, very quick and easy
             to add words to the dictionary which can be expanded by
             the user. A good alternative to David Pillings program
             as it's PD.
!Analysis  ^ Program by Giovani Lo Conti to analyse text files. Can
             produce various outputs, concordances, KWIC, KWOC,
             readability, statistics, etc.
ArcOutline = 1.04 A 'text outliner' which can be used to 'design' a
             piece of writing. Allows up to eight 'levels' of ideas
             which can be displayed as required
!C»Impress - 2.00 Two apps for converting text files and 'C' files to
             a format suitable for use in Impression
!Change    = Changes EOL characters when importing/exporting text
             files from PC's. Can also change the spaces to the
             correct character for 1WP if required.
!ChangeTxt ^ Program by Daryl Sims to convert between Acorn, PC a,d
             Mac formats. Can change CR/LF, character sets, expand
             Tabs, strip special characters, and will try to guess the
             format of an untyped file.
!ColText   = 1.51 Reformats text files into two or three columns
!CSVtoText - Converts CSV format files as used by many spreadsheets
             to text
!CutLF     ^  A fairly crude program by Chris Rodliffe to remove
             unwanted blank lines from double-spaced textfiles.
!Cvrt      ^ 2.01 From Terje Larsen, converts a textfile from one
             alphabet to another. Main use would be for 'Acornising'
             files imposted from PC's, Mac's, etc. It's table driven,
             and conversions are provided for several sets, but the
             table is a simple textfile with a full explanation of how
             it's made up so you can easily make your own tables
!Diction   = Simple Desktop spelling checker. Doesn't check text, you
             type in a word. Easy to add new words
!DrawLink  - Links ASCII text files into a format suitable for
             inclusion in !Draw/!Draw+ as a text area
!Edit2Imp  - 1.00 prepares text to be loaded into impression
EdToAscii  = 1.30 Program to convert text to and from Edword format.
!FanFold  ^: A program by Andrew Ayre to ensure that textfiles aren't
             printed over the perforations of fanfold paper. It also
             lets you set top and bottom margins. This is done by line
             counting so it will work with any printer and paper size.
!FormatTXT - Formats text files with page breaks, headers, footers
             etc. with any page width and length
!FormText  ^ Utility from Tony Houghton to format text files. It can
             insert page breaks, margins, headers, footers, and a
             contents page. Ideal for producing nicely formatted
             manuals. (Subtle hint to PD/Shareware Authors).
!German    - Allows the German accented characters to be entered into
             the keyboard buffer by clicking on them in a small
             window. You could use !Chars but this is much neater
!Han-D     = The Author says that this is called Han-D because he
             thinks it is and because !PuncuationRemover won't fit.
             It removes certain types of punctuation from text files.
!ImpChars2 = 2.20 A version of ImpChars improved and 'jazzed up'
             by Cy Booker. Allows selection of any character from any
             installed font.
!Italicer  - 1.0 Creates an italic version of a font.
JGPsuite   = This appears to be a set of programs including a 'Risc
             compliant' text editor and printing utilities.
             Unfortunately the Author has chosen to write the
             instructions in the editor format which makes it somewhat
             difficult to work out what it does.
!Justify   ^ Makes a text file fully justified with a straight right
             margin by padding the text with spaces. Personally I find
             justified text very difficult to read, but it does make
             it look prettier if you think that's important
!Letter    = Program to create a 'letter on a disc'. Text can have
             fancy fonts and incorporate graphics
!LongRead  ^ 0.44 Very useful program by Ben Harris which displays a
             textfile in a window. Main advantage is that it doesn't
             load the whole file but just caches a part of it, so you
             can read files which are far too big to fit into RAM
!LooknFind ^ 0.5 By Robert Lytton, searches through files of defined
             types for a 'phrase'.
!MakeCSV   = Takes a formatted text file and converts it to CSV
             format. Useful if you want to transfer data tables from a
             document to a spreadsheet
!MakeDict  = Pieces together the files that make up the dictionary in
             !WordHound to let you edit it on a 2Mb machine
!Make_Text = 1.00 Program by John Lageu to convert files with lots of
             embedded control codes (eg. 'Smart' files or WP files) to
             plain text by stripping out all the control codes. Also
             removes leading and trailing spaces.
µemacs     = 3.11 The unix text editor with full 'C' source
             code including the Wimp specific files.
MiniHound  = Desktop thesaurus with over 30,000 keywords, which is a lot more
             than 'Desktop Thesaurus'. OK from floppy but best from a hard disc.
             Will work from a RAM disc but as it takes over 700K of disc space plus
             about 180K to run you need at least 2Mb to use it this way.
             This program is Shareware and when you register (£5) you also get the
             right to use it's 'big brother' Wordhound
!NewChars2 = Improved version of 'Chars' which can also select fonts
!PCconvert = 1.11 Useful app from Simon Osborne to convert Wordstar
             format files into Archimedes style ascii. It can also
             perform other functions (eg. cr/lf transformation) to act
             as a general purpose PC textfile converter.
!PD-Impres = Pipedream to Impression data transfer utility
!PipIn     = 0.94 Pipedream <--> Interword file converter, also
             converts PD files to text and 1WP format. Can be used
             with Z88 as well
PowerSrch  = Based on the series of articles in 'Archive' on
             Searching and Replacing by Michael Houlder. Includes
             sample application to find all the various styles in an
             Impression document.
!Quote     : Intercepts keypresses and substitues other characters.
             It's main purpose, as the name implies, it to try to
             'pair' quotation marks, etc.
!ReadFile  = Opens a VDU window. Useful if you have !Edit loaded but
             want to see what text will look like in a Command window
!RTFreader = 1.1 Extracts text from a RTF (Ritch Text Format) document
!RTFwriter = 1.1 Converts a plain text file into RTF
!Spell     = A simple desktop front-end for CC's !SpellMod. Can check
             individual words or a etxt file, when it produces a list
             of probable mis-spelt words. Obviously you need CC's
             !SpellMod to use it. No substitute for David Pilling's
             program but if you have a copy of !SpellMod...
!StrongEd  = 3.52 "Excellent text editor". !StrongHelp gives lots of
             help on Assembly, Basic, SWIs and more. Now back as
             Shareware after an abortive attempt at being sold
             commercially, hardly surprising as it was £29 more
             expensive than Zap. Now it's only £10 dearer. However, I
             still prefer Zap. Obviously no lessons have been learned
             because there's still no proper Shareware message, just
             'send me a tenner' at the bottom of the Banner window
             (!), and still no documentation, only !StrongHelp, which
             although excellent is no substitute for a proper Manual.
             Also the left hand characters in the StrongHelp menu
             windows are 'clipped' on a RiscPC so you can't read the
             items properly.
!StrongEd  ^ 4.11, plus StrongHelp 2.02. I still don't think it's as
             good as Zap, but this version does seem a bit more stable
             on the RPC.
!Styles    - 1.05 Allows Styles to be set in Impression Junior in a
             similar way to Impression
!Tabs      = Application for intelligently removing or inserting tab
             characters in text files
!TextForm  ^ A text file formatter from Briam Widdas
!TextInfo  = 1.12 Gives info about text files, counts number of
             characters, words, sentences and lines
!TextMax   ^ Puts printer control codes into text so that you can use
             special effects in a text editor (Edit, Zap, etc)
             Unfortunately it's set up for a particular Epson printer
             and there doesn't seem to be any simple way to change it
!Transform = 1.00 Takes a CSV file and transforms it so that each row
             becomes a column.
!Twin      = 1.2 Converts Acorns Twin text editor into a RM
!TXT2Text  ^ Yet another one of those apps to convert between text
             files with CR/LF's and LF's only.
!TxtPrint+ = 2.06 Text file printer driver which can reformat,
             repaginate, print Basic program listings etc.
!unHTML    ^ At last! A utility by Mike Williams to convert those
             useless HTML files to plain text, Publisher/Style, or
             Draw Textarea format so that you can actually DO
             something with them
WordChk    = 0.03 A spelling checker module by Geof Lane. It is mainly
             intended for use with 'technical' words which are not
             included in the data provided with normal spelling
             checkers although it can be used as for 'normal' text.
             It is not particularly user-friendly but it is small and
             because it's a *command driven module you could write
             your own Basic program to interface with it if you wish.
!WordBook  ^ 1.10 Again from R.Lytton, this will 'type' words, phrases
             or sentences. Very useful if you need to repeatedly the
             same phrases. Easy to create lists of words and phrases
!WordCount : From James Freeman, this does what its name suggests, it
             counts the words in a text file.
!Wordhound = The more advanced version of Mini Hound. As well as the normal
             thesaurus function it can find 'sound alike' words and link with
             Impression via the Impulse protocol as well as a dictionary function.
             As with Mini Hound it's Shareware but the  registration fee of only £5
             entitles you to use both programs.
!Zap      =  1.31 Superb text editor from Dominic Symes. In my opinion
             FAR superior to StrongEd. Supports Basic programs, good
             undo, 'learn' facility, handles 'tabs' sensibly, runs Basic
             programs, most features (including keys) user configurable,
             etc, etc. So many features I'm not even going to attempt to
             list them. Can even edit files in byte/word format or show
             them as disassembled code. Very fast. Can edit Basic
             programs as a text file, colour in Basic and 'C' modes, and
             each type of file can have its own, user defineable,
             'mode'. Forget StrongEd, DeskEdit, etc. this is THE text
             editor for the Archimedes. v1.30 has lots of improvements,
             including a large choice of bitmap fonts for you to select
             from. These are especially useful in hi-res screen modes as
             they are much easier to construct (tools are included) and
             faster than 'painted' fonts. The most omportant changes are
             that it's now 'fully' RiscPC compatible and makes use of
             the additional features available on the new architecture
             machines. It can also load extension modules 'on the fly'
             so you don't have to load ones you don't normally use until
             you actually want them, There's even a special Zap mode for
             SAsm now (thanks to James Freeman) so you can edit
             assembler files in glorious colour.
TeX      =   ArmTex version 3.141 with LaTeX 2.09. TeX is a professional
             typesetting program especially suitable for typesetting
             technical or mathematical material. Many technical
             documents are written using TeX and, when supplied on disc,
             are often in TeX format. Not a package for someone who
             needs a 'quick fix' or a WYSIWYG DTP package. TeX was
             'ported' from UNIX and is not particularly easy to use but,
             once mastered, it can produce superb printed output and do
             things that Impression and other DTP packages cannot
             emulate. With a package of this size and complexity you
             obviously need a hard disc and it will take around 15Mb. So
             far as I am aware this version wotks perfectly (even I have
             been able to test it!) and seems OK on the Risc PC.

  Utilities

AC         = Another system usage accounting program
!ACH_ResFS : 1.00  A replacement for the Resource Filer which enables
             some apps (eg Config, Alarm) to be password protected so
             small prying fingers can't thoroughly scramble your
             setup. Would probably be VERY useful in schools
AddSprites ^ Very useful Module from Andrew Clover. This stops other
             applications from overwriting your desktop sprites with
             their own 'improved' ones. Have you ever had your nice,
             hi-res, fancy icons wiped out by someone else's idea of
             how your desktop should look - this will stop it
!Alert     = Gives you an indication when a task that 'hogs' the
             processor has finished.
!AntiTask  - Forces desktop to stop multi-tasking and run a single
             program
!Apphelp   - Provides a Help utility for an application
!ArcTools  : 0.72 General purpose toolkit with memory and disc
             editors, search and dissasembler, plus other functions.
             This seems to be a very powerful package. It's not a Wimp
             program but is a RM and '*' command driven.
Arm3Cache  = Nice module by Mike Harrison to switch the cache on/off
             with hotkeys. Left ALT/CTRL for OFF, ALT-Shift for ON
!Atchoo    = With ARM 2 machines this speeds up the System ROMs,
             with an ARM 3 it turns the cache on or off.
!Autotype  ^ By Nick Smith, this useful app takes any text file and
             inserts the characters one by one into the keyboard
             buffer. As well as it's main purpose of 'typing' pre
             prepared text into a comms program this could have other
             uses, eg. inserting text into a database, DTP program, or
             anything that requires text to be typed
!awd       ^ Archimedes Window Dump. Grabs the window the pointer is
             over as a sprite with a 'hot key' combination
!BitFlip   : Lets you get at some of the bits of CMOS RAM that other
             CMOS editors can't reach
!Blinker   = 1.00 Makes the caret blink so it's a LOT easier to find
!BuffStuff = If you drag a file to the BuffStuff icon the filename
             appears at wherever the input focus happens to be. Most
             editors (well, all GOOD editors) can do this for
             themselves but if you've got one that can't....
!Cassette  : 1.32 Program from Mark Bright/Malcolm Knight to print
             cassette inlays.
!CLIdetect = Very simple program to temporarily disable the CLI. Stops
             students (!) pressing F12 and doing things you don't want
             them to
!CLIguard  = Lets you inspect and get help from Modules if you are one
             of those people who are terrified of leaving the desktop.
!CMOS      = The nicest CMOS RAM saver/restorer I've seen by James
             Hunter
!CMOSsave  = Another program to save your CMOS RAM
!CMOSSave  = Another CMOS RAM saver. Saves the entire RAM to disc
!CoolSwtch : 1.05 Lets you switch between tasks with ALT-TAB rather
             like Windows
!DialCode  = Lets you search for the place name if you know the
             dialling code and visa versa.
!FastTask  ^ This program from Sam Kington is *supposed* to try to
             learn about the tasks you use and let you start them from
             the keyboard or tying in the task name. It seems very
             fragile and I get lots of error messages (it seems to
             leave files open and then complain about it).
!FontSafe  ^ Stops games programs setting the font cache to 0 and so
             making the Risc PC desktop run like a snail
!FreeRMA   = Tries to free up RAM in the RMA
!GHZap     : Searches through program code and disables all those
             'UpdateMemC' calls put in by incompetent programmers
             which crash the machine with RO3.
!IconDel   = 1.03 From Robert Adamson, this is invaluable if you
             constantly open directories on applications and fill up
             the Wimp Spritepool with icon sprites. It opens a window
             shaowing all the sprites and allows you to delete the
             ones you no longer want, thus releasing the RAM
!iconSprtz = I don't know why I hadn't thought of this! Drag
             spritefile to the IconSprtz icon and it's added to the
             Wimp Pool. Saves a lot of messing about when you're
             editing the application sprites etc.
InlayPrnt  = 2.05 Cassette inlays again but this one can be output as a
             Draw file
IntModule  = 1.10 A module by Steve Hoare which tries to stop the
             current task with a specified keypress. Can be used to
             kill a runaway program without pressing RESET. Complete
             with source code so you can modify the key(s)
!KillSprs  = Deletes sprites in the Spritepool duplicated in ROM. Lets
             you restore default sprites if they have been changed.
!LastTime  = Displays the last time the computer was used. Put it in
             your !Boot file and find out if anyone has been tampering
!Letter    = Program to create a 'letter on a disc'. Text can have
             fancy fonts and incorporate graphics
!LineEdit  - 2.30 For editing CLI commands
!MemoryPie = Displays memory useage as a pie chart
!MenuBar   ^ This is s superb new menuing system from Graham Crow.
             Similar (but suerior to) the commercial program Blinds.
             You can have lots of pull-down menus at the top of the
             screen and you can switch between complete sets of menus
             if you wish. Easy to set up and use and lots of options.
             Highly recommended and the best system I've seen.
!ModFiler  = Nice app from Brian Marsden to control Modules from the
             desktop. Can give info, Kill, Unplug, Save, etc.
!ModKiller = Lets you kill some of the least used modules. Don't ask
             me why you can't just press F12 and type RMKILL <name>,
             some people seem to want to do everything with the mouse
!ModuleHp  = Displays the Title and Help strings of a Module.
!ModulInfo = 1.42 Simple program to display info on a Module. Saves
             loading it into 'Zap' to get the version number etc.
!NoIcons   ^ Particularly useful if you only have 1Mb. It stops the
             filer loading all those iconsprites every time it sees a
             new app, which uses up more RAM in the wimp spritepool
!PostCalc  ^ This program is meant to calculate the postage cost of a
             packet but it's out of date and has a few bugs. However,
             if you do need it you may be able to alter the rates as
             they're in DATA statements near the start of the program.
!PtrWatch  ^ There are lots of desktop magnifiers, but this one by Ben
             Dooks is onbe of the best, and unlike many others it's
             very fast and works in Risc PC screen modes
!RemoveDA  ^ This is a utility by Dave Thomas to show any Dynamic
             Areas in use on the Risc PC and give you the option of
             removing them.
!Resource  : From Terry Adams, allows you to put files into the
             Resource filing system and it also lets you 'rip out'
             resource data
!RiscTimer : Keeps track of computer usage. Records the amount of time
             the computer is switched on and the time it's actually
             being used for the last 28 days
RMAManager = Tries to 'tidy  up' all the empty random blocks in the
             RMA left when modules are KILLed or give up their
             workspace so that they can be returned to the main pool.
             Can make quite a bit of RAM available if you have been
             loading/killing various modules
!RMbroom   = Another program to try to tidy up the RMA
!RO2_4all  : This is a bit of a 'bodge' but it might let you run a
             RISC-OS 2 app that won't work with RO3
!rsynth    ^ This is (or so it says!) a text to speech translator
             based on a klatt synthesizer. It does work (eventually)
             but I don't think it will be of any serious use as it is.
             however it contains a lot of material that might be of
             use to someone who wants to try to develop it further
!RUSure?   : Have you ever hit Shift/Ctrl/F12 by mistake and shut down
             the computer? This useful app intecepts the call and asks
             if you're SURE you want to shutdown BEFORE it's too late.
!Saviour   = 1.20 More sophisticated 'auto save'. This simulates
             pressing the F3 key at predefined intervals. As this is
             the 'Save' key in many desktop apps it will either save
             automatically or open the 'Save' window to remind you
!SloFilter ^ This reduces the number of NULL polls received by a task,
             which lets you slow down a task which is carrying out
             background processing of some sort, thereby allowing
             other tasks to have more time to work.
!SlotSize  ^ Forces any application that starts up to use the Wimpslot
             you define and not the one in the !Run file. RiscPC users
             will find this useful to check if the reason a program
             won't run is that the Wimpslot is set too small without
             needing to change the !Run file
!SystemVar ^ Again from Andrew Berry, lets you read and edit any
             System variable
!TaskFront ^ Sits on the icon bar and Runs programs dragged to it in a
             Task Window, so you can use all those old utilities
             without having to set directories etc. Very handy
!TaskKill  = 1.26 Nice Module from Paul Clifford to kill the current
             task. Not only is this invaluable for programmers (those
             who don't have a Risc PC) it's also the only way out when
             you run one of those badly written Demo's or games that
             don't have a proper 'exit' and then remember that you'd
             forgotten to Save chapter 46 of your novel
!task      ^ By Alun Jone, this is a replacement for the TaskWindow.
             Instead of acting within the desktop is works 'full
             screen', and so is a lot faster
!TaskLog   ^ From Graham Crow, keeps a log of how long you spend using
             various tasks. Useful for professionals, especially writers
!TaskMon   ^ By Geoff Williams, monitors the use of tasks and keeps a
             logfile so you can see how much time you've spent working
             (and how much playing Lemmings!)
!TaskMsg   ^ Potentially a very useful tool from James Ponder. It lets
             you send messages to tasks, so, for example, you can put
             commands in your !Boot app to load files into editors and
             do other things not normally possible.
!UniqueID  = Program to read and display the machine ID that A3010's,
             A3020's, A4000's and A5000's have. It won't stop someone
             nicking your beloved but it will ensure you can identify
             it if it's recovered.
!Usage     = 1.00 CPU usage utility that shows CPU activity in a
             window on the icon bar but, most usefully, you can open a
             desktop window showing the percentage of time the Wimp is
             spending with each task.
!UserPort  = Allows rudimentary control of the User Port from the
             desktop
!Virtual   = By Brian Brunswick and Nick Smith. A replacement for the
             TaskWindow which emulates virtual memory so that a task
             running in this window can be made to believe it has up
             to 24Mb available. Obviously only programs which can be
             run in a Task Window can be used so it's effectively
             restricted to CLI tasks but this does mean that 'memory
             hogs' like the GNU C compiler can be run without massive
             amounts of memory. It's not very efficient and you
             obviously need plenty of spare (fast) HD space. With
             C/AASM source code.
WatchMEMC  ^ A Module from Nigel Jones to look out for all those
             naughty UpdateMEMC swi's that incompetent games/demo
             programmers use and which screw up your computer.
ZRegister  ^ A Module from John Kortink. Tasks 'register' their use of
             a Module and when none are using it the Module is
             deleted, freeing up space in the RMA. Often this can't be
             done by the task as it won't know if some other task is
             using the Module
