Musician - This program will show you a picture of a keyboard, on which
you can actually play, using the music system in the Amiga. You
can have piano, or drums, or both. Music can be saved or loaded
and a help screen is included as part of the program. Nice
graphics, and fun to play.
Showfont31 - An improved version of the ShowFont program on an earlier disk.
This program will open a window, read your fonts: directory into
a requester in that window, and you may select any font which
will then be displayed in the window. No need to load a paing
or DTP program to view the characters in a font. Nice.
AmigaForth - The file says, AmigaForth.blk, and is an implementation of the
Forth programming language for the Amiga.
WBDepth - This program will change the number of planes assigned to your
WorkBench screen, and can do it 'on the fly'. With one bitplane,
you get two colors; two bitplanes, four colors, three bit-planes,
eight colors, etc. Interesting program!
m2du371 - This directory utility is extremely capable, and has been revised
since the release of 1.3 so that it now handles the script and
pure protection bits properly. If there is anything this utility
cannot do, there are extra gadgets you can set up to your own
taste - and it is PUBLIC DOMAIN, not shareware.
CR20 - ClickRead was designed as a text file reader for the ".doc' files
that often accompany programs. It is a small program, suitable
for keeping in the C: directory, but has nice features such as a
slide gadget for positioning in the text, buttons for scrolling,
a search mode, and a 'park' mode that gets it out of the way. A
very nice little utility.
SpToy - The original SpeechToy, written by Dave Lucas, has been enhanced
by Rob Peck. It can now read and write its own icon with the
defaults you have set, has a menu item to save the current
speech settings, can be started from either WB or CLI, and
can read the default values in the icon even if run from the CLI.
ZoePlay - A PD-player for the new animation program, ZoeTrope. This player
will be necessary to view the animations for those who do not
purchase the program. Lessee now - you need a player for each of
the animation programs, and I think that is up to about six.
Shall we make a disk of players?
SMORSE - This file contains the source, but it is sparsely documented. I
know only that it sends Morse code, and I think it sends it through
the sound channels from input at the keyboard. An adventure
for you - find out how it works!
TETRIX - This game originated in Russia. It is available in PD forms for
several computers, and the source is in public domain, but there
are commercial versions from Spectrum HoloByte for the IBM and the
MacIntosh. This is an Amiga port of the public domain code.
WARP2.0 - The author of Warp is unknown, but the program will make an
archive of an entire disk, preserving the exact structure in
much the same way as making a backup will do. It is simple
to use: To read it, type "WARP 0 79 Name", and to write
the archived version out, "WARP write name". Can be used for
less than a full disk, too, by specifying the tracks to be
read or written.
KICKTOYS - This set of three programs will let you study the kickstart
routines. Here are some tools to use for exploring the mysteries
of the kickstart-
Kickunload --------- reads the kickstart disk and creats a file ks.bin
which you can peruse with newzap.
Kick_snatch -------- reads the kickstart image resident in memory
and creates a file ram:ks.bin
which you can peruse with newzap.
Kick_split -------- divides the 256k file into 4 64k X 8 files,
suitable for programming into 27512 eproms.
LS21 - A Unix-style list utility that permits various types of sorts
and other options that give many of the features of both LIST
and DIR. A very nice replacement.
