- Digitizing - a general howto on digitizing with considerable detail by
- Ralph Reed.
-
- Fontfacts - a even more detailed and long article on Amiga fonts.
-
- MouseCMd - MouseCMD is a utility that allows you to execute commands or
- enter text at a click of the mouse button. This is done by introducing
- simulated keystrokes into the input stream, appearing to the system that
- commands are being entered from the keyboard.
-
- VirusX_1.21 - One of a growing band of virus zappers.
-
- WhichFont - by Rob Peck that asks AvailFonts() to make a list of the fonts
- that are available and makes a list of them, then opens a separate
- window and prints a description of the various attributes that can
- be applied to the fonts, in the font itself. Notice that not all
- fonts accept all attributes (garnet9 for example, won't underline).
-
- A68k - by Charlie Gibbs. This assembler is based on Brian R. Anderson's
- 68000 cross-assembler published in Dr. Dobb's Journal, April through
- June 1986. I have converted it to produce AmigaDOS-format object
- modules, and have made many enhancements such as macros and include
- files.
-
- Access! - One of a new generation of Comms progs for the amiga. Full
- colour with many options but no zmodem or scripting.
-
- Gif2Ami - These two programs were developed for Compuserve to enable
- different types of computers to exchange pictures. The majority of
- GOOD pictures are done on the Amiga. When the pictures are displayed
- on an Amiga you can very easily tell if they were done on an IBM or
- MAC (the quality just is not there). The program Giffy is used to
- display GIF (Graphic Interchange Format) pictures and the program
- IFF2GIF is used to make GIF files from IFF files. Note how much less
- disk space is used by GIF files. To display GIF files on an IBM
- (EGA recommended) use the program CSHOW which is floating around in
- the IBM section on many BBSs.
-
- Display - a selection of screen hacks. Play around and have a surprise.
-
- Amiga_Early_Days - a talk given by R.J. Mical at Boston Computer Society
- in Cambridge Massachusetts. 6 Pages of notes.
-
- Structures - 2 progs, Xplor scans all the system lists that start in
- ExecBase and prints out their names and the addresses at which they
- start. Also Structure Browser for which there are no notes.
