514DRIVE - Here are a text file and a schematic that show you how to adapt
any IBM 5 1/4" drive to work on your Amiga. Requires a bit of skill,
but this tells you how, parts needed, etc.
EXPAND - The source and executables are included here. This is a program
that is compatible with COMPRESS, and is said to be far more efficient.
EXPCPY - ExpressCopy is a new harddisk backup utility - but it is also
useful for copying any directories, disks, etc. It can copy about 1M
per minute, and can alternate between up to 4 drives. It does not
compress the data, so the backup disks are still usable normally in
case of emergency. This is a working demo version of the commercial
program.
FONTS - This is not a collection of fonts, but is a font utility. It will
give you a list of all the fonts in the system (memory or disk) and
all of the information the Amiga has about those fonts. You can
select the information you want to know by parameters at runtime.
IPC - You need a compiler to make this one work, but this is a version of
the IPC software that the Usenet group have been working on for a year
or so. These procedures provide a mechanism for independent processes
to communicate with each other through "IPC ports". This is similar in
some ways to the popular commercial product AREXX. Works differently,
but similar purpose.
IVIEW - "IView" is the first "show" program for the Amiga which can display
normal IFF/ILBM standard or overscan pictures, in addition to RGBN
pictures generated by Turbo Silver (all versions) AND "3DPX" Stereo 3D
pictures that are generated by Turbo Silver-SV and Haitex X-Specs
software.
NATURE - This is a stereoscopic raytrace picture rendered with Turbo Silver.
It can be viewed with either the Haitex X-Specs 3D glasses or the new
Turbo Silver-SV Sega interface. The picture depicts two insects,
some leaves and ferns.
PDMAKE - Another one for those of you with C compilers. This is a public
domain MAKE utility, but you must compile it before it will work.
PEEL2 - Peel is a program which takes a lo-res IFF picture and peels the
image off the screen, while showing the back side of the image. Like
tape being pulled off glass. This peeling starts in the lower right
corner and leaves the background (Color 0) behind.
TREKTRIVIA - Test your knowledge of StarTrek! This is a game that asks
you questions about the series, and gives you a score at the end. There
are 100 questions in this file, and information is given for obtaining
new question files from the author - who lives in Garland, Texas.
XOR2HC - This program will take NFL team files in the Xor "ROS" format and
convert them for use in Head Coach.
XOR2TV - This program will take NFL team files in the Xor "ROS" format and
convert them for use in TV Sports.
