FONTS - A very clean font called 2001, size 8 x 8, so it works with SetFont.
Another, Boxy, comes in all three standard sizes (8, 9, 11) and can
be used with the FF command in 1.3, and a third is a 26-point font
called Pirate.
DIRK - This program lets you fine tune your screen colors. It can run from
a startup sequence if you prefer, and is a CLI program only.
RXENV - This is a set of AREXX programs that work with Lattice C, making
it easier to edit and compile programs. Three programs are included,
along with instructions.
CONMAN13 - The included ConMan.doc file has a full description of how to
install and use ConMan, but here's a brief summary of the standard
features -
-- Powerful line editing using control and arrow keys
-- Adjustable-sized command history buffer
-- Window control keys F1/F2 ... shrink or "zoom" the window
-- Fast command search keys F5/F6
-- Select window gadgets and attributes like borderless or backdrop
-- Fully compatible with any software using CON- (console) windows
Features and improvements new to ConMan version 1.3 include ...
-- CND- handler ... allows "invisible" (non-blocking) type-ahead
-- CNX- (extensible) handler ... an AUX--type handler for any device
-- Much-improved editing for lines longer than the window width
-- Improved shrink/zoom ... no more problems with rapid toggling
-- Support for "S*" screen ... opens a window on the front screen
-- Support for superbitmap windows
ICN2BRU - Many utilities convert brushes to icons.
This one converts. Icons to brushes so you can edit them with your
favorite paint program. You can then use one of the other utilities
to turn them back to icons.
SHOWBRD - This is a small program that will search the system for all
mounted boards, etc., and report back information about them.
Written by a developer of hardware for the Amiga.
TEXTRDR - Will read and copy text from a window. As you move the mouse
across the text, it will appear at the cursor. Useful - saves
typing!
FORTUNE - A very small example of an AREXX program. This one will read
a datafile of fortunes, adages, etc., and print them out at
random times on the screen. Datafile not included - sorry.
BILLIARDS - This is a very nice game. A billiards table is shown on the
screen, and you control the stick. You can vary the force and
direction with which the ball is hit, using the mouse to control
it. I like this one.
LEDGER - This is a program for keeping up with accounts of any kind -
home records, or those for a small business or a club.
XOPER11 - a tremendous program for snooping out and/or controlling
tasks, processes, and all other structures in use in the
system. It will display the start address of anything in use
in the system, and in most cases, you get some measure of
control over them. VERY nice.
ROCKET - A drawing of rockets - an especially nice one. This is an
artist's rendition of rockets, inspired by the recent space
launch. Overscan picture, so you may have to have a program
that will scroll pics in order to see all of it.
STAT11 - A manual translation of James M. Synge's stat.c to assembly
language.
Synge's stat is more useful to programmers than the AmigaDos or ARP
status commands because it shows where each command is loaded into
memory. All variable storage is on a stack frame so the code is
"pure".
DUTILS - This file contains several utilities from Matt Dillon. Each is
very small, and the source is given.
DIR - A very small utility that enhances the DIR command. Among other
things, it will give you a five-column directory.
KICKFONT3 - This is exactly like the KickFont 1000 users have been using for
a while - comes from Greg Browne just as the other did, but this one
works on a 1.3 Kickstart. The new font is VERY nice.
ICONS - The icons included are- Box.info,Envelope.info, File.info,
Left.info, Middle.info, and Right.info. All are WorkBench fonts.
DMOUSE11 - The popular mouse utility from Matt Dillon, once more improved
and enhanced. Sunmouse, mouse accelerator, pointer blanker, screen
blanker, popcli, etc.
