- CHECKERS - an AmigaBASIC game. You can play against the computer, or
- against another player. Use the mouse to choose a piece to move,
- and click on the place where you want the piece. The game protects
- against illegal moves.
-
- SHOWIZ - a really good program for displaying pictures and textfiles. It
- will display one or a directory-full or a disk-full. If you want to
- write a script-file, you can. Otherwise, it will display each picture
- or textfile as it comes to them, moving on after 30 seconds. This is
- a VERY nice program Shareware, $10 and $15 suggested. Has 23 choices
- of ways to move the frames onto the screen!
-
- LIBCAT12 - uses the Dewey Decimal System to help maintain records of a
- library (personal or otherwise). There are many options to the
- program, even including the option to print spine labels. Options
- permit searches and printed reports based on searches. Except that
- it uses the Dewey Decimal System, now largely replaced by ISBM numbers,
- it appears to be a most useful and capable program.
-
- BMAT - came with no documentation at all. This appears to be a version of
- BFormat, a program that will format disks on which there is a bad spot
- by marking whole bad tracks as used.
-
- CRAPS - written in TrueBASIC, then compiled. Simulation of the casino Craps
- game. There seem to be quite a few options, but someone who gambles
- more than I will have to explain them. It is colorful and appear to
- work.
-
- IBELIEVE - a SONIX tune of the same name. This will need to be moved to
- a disk that has the Player program for SONIX, or else to be used with
- SONIX itself. It will not play as presented here.
-
- VICHECK1 - a virus checker from Germany, said to detect the SCA virus or all
- non-standard boot blocks. No source given. Use at your own risk.
-
- DISKPERF - checks the speed of disk drives. It checks for a number of
- items, number of seeks, speed for each seek, time to load in a file,
- etc. Sample times for floppies and several hard disks are included
- in the documentation file.
-
- VIRUSX1.5 - Steve Tibbet's latest assault on the virii. This one was
- written to add a new strain of the Byte Bandit virus that had come
- to his notice. Comes with both source and a makefile. RECOMMENDED.
