CONTENTS OF March/April 1994 FreshFish CDROM This file contains some overview information about the contents of the CD-ROM, followed by a concatenation of a bunch of individual Contents files on the CD-ROM. Note that not all the material on the CD-ROM appears in a Contents file somewhere, so the list of programs found in this file is only a subset of what is actually on the CD-ROM. In particular, the only detailed contents listed here are for material that is "New" with this CD-ROM. ----------------------- STRUCTURE OF THE CD-ROM ----------------------- The 636 Mb on the CD-ROM is divided into roughly three sections: (1) New material, which includes the material from the new unreleased floppy disks as well as material which does not appear in the floppy distribution, (2) useful utilities that can be used directly off the CD-ROM if desired, thus freeing up the corresponding amount of hard disk space, and (3) older material from previous released floppy disks or CD-ROM's. The portion of the disk dedicated to new material that I've not previously published on a CD-ROM or floppy disk is 59 Mb, broken down as follows: 8 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of disks 951-975 20 Mb Unarchived (ready-to-run) contents of disks 951-975 9 Mb Archived "new material" not in floppy distribution 22 Mb Unarchived "new material" not in floppy distribution The portion of the disk dedicated to a bunch of useful tools like GNU utilities, TeX with lots of fonts, and other interesting software that will be updated for each FreshFish CD-ROM, is 284 Mb, broken down as follows: 2 Mb Content lists of floppy disks 1-971. 6 Mb Content lists (file and CRC lists) of previous CD-ROM's. 4 Mb CD-ROM administration files, documentation, etc. 4 Mb Reviews of Amiga software and hardware 4 Mb Full BSD source for supplied BSD executables. 4 Mb AmigaGuide versions of GNU "info" files. 6 Mb CBM header files, libraries, and developer tools. 3 Mb Binary executables, libraries, and other "runtime" things. 27 Mb Misc useful tools, libraries, etc. 33 Mb PasTeX source, fonts, binaries, etc. 39 Mb GNU binaries, libraries, and other "runtime" things. 152 Mb Full GNU source for supplied GNU executables. The portion of the disk dedicated to old material is 293 Mb, broken down as follows: 12 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of material from Oct FreshFish CD-ROM that was not in floppy distribution. 22 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of material from Dec FreshFish CD-ROM that was not in floppy distribution. 27 Mb Unarchived contents of material from Oct FreshFish CD-ROM that was not included in the floppy distribution. 57 Mb Unarchived contents of material from Dec FreshFish CD-ROM that was not included in the floppy distribution. 175 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of floppy disks 600-975. -------- GNU CODE -------- Here are the current GNU distributions which are included in both source and binary form. In most cases, they are the very latest distributions ftp'd directly from the FSF machines and compiled with the version of gcc included on this CD-ROM.

Author: Felice Murolo Path: New/AmigaLibDisks/Disk955/MuroloUtil/ ========== PFS 6.11 Professional filing system for the Amiga The standard AmigaDos filesystem (OFS) is very slow. Commodore has tried to improve the performance of their filesystem a number of times. Workbench 2.0 added the fast filing system (FFS), and now, with Workbench 3.0, we have the fast filing system with directory caching (FFS-DC). This makes directoryscan faster but writing to disk and directory-operations like delete and rename are slower than ever. This made me decide to write a filesystem that does better. I used all the knowledge I gained from my computer science study to make it as good as possible. The professional filing system (PFS) has the following features: High performance, write: 2-3 times faster read: 50% faster; directoryscan: 10-20 times FFS, 3 times FFS-DC; delete/rename/protect etc: 10-20 times faster; Other features: full AmigaDos compatibility; upto 10% more data on a disk; better faulttolerance; parallel access almost without performance loss; disks NEVER get invalidated. This version of the filesystem is for floppy disks only. Both double density and high density disks are supported. A version suitable for harddisks is being worked on and will be available to registered users only.

This is not a recorder, mouse and keyboard events are generated in real time and so the software adapts itself to changes at a particular execution. Includes example programs and source in C and assembly.

From a programmer's point of view, using MUI saves a lot of time and makes life much easier. Thinking about complicated terms like window resizing or font sensitivity is simply not neccesary. On the other hand, users of MUI based applications have the ability to customize nearly every pixel of a program's interface according to their personal taste. This is part 2 of a 2 part distribution and contains the developer support package. The user system can be found on disk number 967.

PowerSnap will check what font is used in the window you snap from and will look for the position of the characters automatically. It recognizes all non proportional fonts of up to 24 pixels wide and of any height so this should cover most fonts used. Snapping and pasting text is done using the mouse, making PowerSnap fast and easy to use. Author: Nico François Path: New/AmigaLibDisks/Disk968/PowerSnap/ ========== ACE 2.0 FreeWare Amiga BASIC compiler + extras ACE is a FreeWare Amiga BASIC compiler which, in conjunction with A68K and Blink produces standalone executables. The language defines a large subset of AmigaBASIC but also has many features not found in the latter such as: turtle graphics, recursion, SUBs with return values, structures, arguments, include files, a better WAVE command which allows for large waveforms, external references, named constants and a variety of other commands and functions not found in AmigaBASIC. New features in version 2.0 include: gadgets, three standard requester types, serial I/O and menus (with optional command-keys for menu items). New commands and functions for this version include EXIT FOR, PTAB, SPC, DEF FN, ON ERROR and ERR (these last two handle file and serial I/O at present). INPUT and PRINT can now be used transparently for all screen/window combinations. All user-defined windows are now fully-configurable and may be used in conjunction with screens as per AmigaBASIC. Window close event trapping is also a new feature. In addition to event trapping, ACE now supports WAITing for both menus and gadgets. Waiting is more operating-system-friendly than event trapping. A simple graphical front-end (Integrated Development Environment) is also provided with the archive. This is written in ACE.

TeX is a professional freeware typesetting programm. The greatest problem of TeX for the average user was - up to now - TeX's complexity and the resulting difficulty to fast and efficiently create documents. This is where TPP starts to work. Now you just have to load a form sheet, which has to be modified at the respective places only. After this the file is compiled to a TeX- file by TPP, which then itself is processed by the TeX compiler. After both compilations either the previewer or the printer driver can be invoked. TPP cooperates with PasTeX, the freeware Amiga implementation of TeX written by Georg Hessmann, and with AmigaTeX ((c) Radical Eye Software). Among TPP's features are tables, staggered lists, mailmerge, footnotes, inclusion of graphics, an ARexx-port (122 commands) and full OS2.xx/3.xx compatibility. You can make use of all functions of TeX, even if they are not supported directly, e. g. there is no editor for mathematical formulae, yet. TPP combines its user friendliness with the typesetting power of TeX in order to open the world of TeX to a totally new group of users. TPP is not only a TeX frontend. You can also use it as a normal editor and print files via the printer.device. New Feastures: AmigaTeX is from now on supported; user definable menus, keymap, and macros; completely localized (available languages: english, deutsch); clipboard support; AppWindow, AppIcon; 11 new ARexx commands (total number of commands now: 122).

Each record is scanned for keywords.\n Once the database is created, the user uses a search program to do keyword searches to find, and optionally display, records that match the specified keyword(s).\n Multiple keywords can be specified. They can be "anded" or "ored", and "wildcard" specifiers can also be used.\n The A-Kwic was originally developed to index "Fish Disk" content listings. It is also handy for indexing the contents of CD-ROMs. Another use is for companys to index customer files, based on various keywords, or to index customer support trouble reports or product fix descriptions.
