Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. AZComm Modified version of Comm 1.34 that contains Zmodem send, receive, and resume receive. Version 1.00, Binary only. Author: SS. Patel, based on Comm 1.34 by DJ James Maze A couple of very nice demos for the creation and use of single-solution mazes, one of which is practically a stand-alone game. Includes source. Author: Werner Gunther Sozobon-C Atari ST version of what appears to be a full K&R freeware C-compiler, assembler and linker. The compiler main pass and the assembler were compiled and tested on an Amiga A2000 with only minimal changes, and they appear to work (to the extent that they believe they are running on an Atari-ST), so an Amiga port should be relatively easy. Author: Sozobon, Limited. Xoper Very comprehensive program to monitor and control system activity. Monitor cpu, memory usage, ports, interrupts, devices. Close windows, screens, show loaded fonts or last Guru code number. Clean up memory, flush unused libraries, devices, fonts. etc. and a whole bunch more! Spawns its own process. A very handy background task to have loaded. Assembly source included. Author: Werner Gunther ========================== Contents of Disk 172 ========================== This is disk 172 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. DataToObj A utility to convert raw data files (sprites, image data, text, etc.) directly into object code which can then be linked to the main program without the need to go through the compiling process. Includes source. Author: Werner Gunther Handshake A full featured VT52/VT100/VT102/VT220 terminal emulator. The author has taken great pains to support the full VT102 spec.

Authors: Steve Berry, Mark Thompson Print1.2 Another CLI-based printing utility with several nice features including the ability to print in ASCII or HEX, with or without line numbers and a CTRL-C Trap. Includes source. Author: John F. Zacharias Sh Another version of the 'Sh' utility to unshar shell archives. Apparently corrects some problems encountered by similar programs.

Binary only, shareware. Author: Terry Gintz Plot Program to compute and plot 3 dimensional functions. Major revision to PD version on disk number 49 by the same author. Version 4.1, binary only, shareware. Author: Terry Gintz SafeBoot Very handy intuition-based program to read and save custom bootblocks.

(filename, filenote, RWED attributes, etc.) Version 2.5, binary only. Author: Michael Weiblen ========================== Contents of Disk 176 ========================== This is disk 176 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. This disk contains version V23-2A of Glenn Everhart's large and powerful spreadsheet program called AnalytiCalc, submitted to me directly by Glenn for inclusion in the library as an update to the version released on disk 144. AnalytiCalc is presented in entirely ZOOed form because it could not otherwise fit on a single disk. Because the auxiliary utilities were presented on disk 144, they are not repeated here. The ZOO utility is used due to the lack of controversy over the format. The public domain BOOZ program is provided to extract the contents of the ZOO archives provided. With this release, AnalytiCalc has become "Freeware" rather than "Shareware". Thus the only restrictions on AnalytiCalc code are that derivative programs remain freely distributable. HyperNet -------- HyperNet is a small hypertext shell program for Amiga, presented with sources and brief documents. It was also submitted by Glenn Everhart, the author. HyperNet allows a "master" AmigaDos process to control a series of connected processes, where the connections are randomly ordered directed graphs. Permissible "child" processes available at any stage are governed by the links of the graph. The implementation is mainly instructive, but can be used for tutorials or demonstrations and illustrates the simplicity of hypertext concepts on a multi-tasking system. ========================== Contents of Disk 177 ========================== This is disk 177 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. ASpice A version of the SPICE 2G.6 circuit analysis program which has been modified to run in the Amiga environment. The program arrays are adjusted to require one forth the memory of the DEC VAX version. Although this does not usually put much of a constraint on circuit analysis, some users who are used to the full mainframe environment may have to be more aware of the memory demands of their analysis. Requires a minimum of 1.5 MB memory. This version neither supports nor requires the 68020 processor or 68881 coprocessor. Binary only. Authors: Many, see Documentation DiskSalv Version 1.32 of the popular "undelete" and file recovery program. Fixes a few bugs apparently found on the version 1.3 release on disk number 164. Author: Dave Haynie Jask An intuition-based replacement for the ASK command. Will bring up a requester with a message and boolean yes/no type gadgets. Version 1.0, includes source. Author: John Barshinger Marge A simple CLI utility to add a specified number of spaces or tabs to the left side of every line in a file. Includes source. Author: Joel Swank Path An interesting concept in path-searching. This program contains a path-handler that allows you to selectively control or assign your system's search path using script files. Includes source. Author: Rico Mariani ========================== Contents of Disk 178 ========================== This is disk 178 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. AmicForm Creates a phonebook containing only those areacodes and exchanges reachable through PC-Pursuit. Update to the version on disk number 157. Works with the new Finalist BBS format. Version 1.4, Binary only. Author: John Motsinger BlackBox The black box is an 8x8 grid in which several "atoms" are hidden. Your job is to find the atoms. You have at your disposal a ray projector which you can use to send rays into the box from any of the 32 spots around the box. Binary only.
