- ========================== Contents of Disk 090 ==========================
-
- This is disk 90 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.
-
- Note that many of the programs on this disk are shareware/freeware.
- This means that if you find them useful, you are morally obligated
- to send a small donation to the author to help support his efforts and
- fund further development. I hope that by including them in this
- library I have furthered the author's goals of widest possible
- distribution and thus maximum return. Also note (for those that
- like to split hairs) that I am distributing this disk as a "freebee".
- To receive a copy, just request it when ordering any other disks from
- the library.
-
- This disk replaces disk number 80, which was pulled from circulation
- due to the redistribution status of files in the directory "tools".
- If you encounter a disk number 80 in circulation, please advise all
- parties concerned that the disk should be erased immediately.

- ========================== Contents of Disk 091 ==========================
-
- This disk contains a distribution of ADL (Adventure Definition Language).
- ADL is a superset of an older language named DDL, by Michael Urban,
- Chris Kostanick, Michael Stein, Bruce Adler, and Warren Usui. ADL
- enhancements were made by Ross Cunniff, who submitted this material
- for inclusion in the library. The disk is essentially unchanged except
- that:
-
- (1) Many icon files have been added to help workbench only
- users get at least some information about this disk
- and about ADL (which is only usable from the CLI
- environment).
-
- (2) The disk name has been changed to AmigaLibDisk91.
-
- (3) The standard library files "GeneralInfo", "Contents",
- and "Distribution", along with their associated icons,
- have been added to the disk.
-
- (4) The directory 'c' has been added, along with a very
- nice text reader program called "less", which is the
- default tool for reading all the text files for which
- there are icons.
-
- Included here are the sources to the ADL compiler, interpreter, and
- debugger. The binaries were compiled by Ross with the Lattice 3.03
- compiler. Ross noted in his letter that currently ADL is a
- CLI environment program only, but that he hopes to offer a more
- Amiga'ized version in the future. Also, the stack size should be
- set to at least 10000 before attempting to run ADL.
