This NTSC demo version is complete except that it is limited to 600 persons/300 marriages, does not support a text-editor to add free-form reports to records and does not show Digi-view pictures from within the program. The color requester is not included as this entails adding a library file to libs: and is not really needed. A-Gene needs 1Mb of ram, and a printer/2nd disk drive are a big help.

Supports CLI and WorkBench usage. This is version 2.1, an update to version 2.0 on disk 406. Shareware, binary only. Author: Peter Vorwerk CLImax A command like NewCLI or NewShell except that it creates a borderless CLI or Shell window on a custom screen. Now you can use the whole display just like a non-windowing computer. Requires ConMan 1.3 or newer. Release three, vastly improved over the first release on disk 224. Includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz. Dr Another alternative CLI directory lister command. This one features extreme optimization for speed, a variety of output formats, hiding of .info files by default, and AmigaDOS pattern matching. It is pure (residentable). It is intended to outperform all other directory listers. Includes the additional utilities ForEvery and Whichever. Release 1.2, includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz. FixCLI A tiny pure command which fixes problems with CLI's not created by other CLI processes. A new CLI or Shell created by such programs as PopCLI or DMouse gets no path and no current directory. FixCLI very quickly and efficiently gives a path to a CLI that does not have one (it looks for other processes that have valid paths) and sets the current directory as specified if none is already set. Put it in your S:Shell-Startup script. Includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz. MoveSYS Reassigns SYS:, C:, S:, L:, LIBS:, DEVS:, and FONTS: to a new disk or directory in one step. Can be used from CLI or Workbench; just click it and shift-double-click a disk or drawer icon. More flexible and robust than some other programs written for the same purpose. It's small and pure. Second release (the one on disk 224 worked from CLI only). Includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz. RunBack A very compact version of the popular utility for starting a CLI process in the background, without preventing the CLI window from closing. This version is pure and only 468 bytes long. Requires the NULL: device, which is included. Using NULL: makes it more flexible and robust than older RunBacks. Can optionally delay up to nine seconds after starting the command. Includes source in assembly. Author: Paul Kienitz. Scrub A floppy drive cleaning program which automatically detects which drive has a cleaner diskette in it. Spins it for thirty seconds while moving the heads around. Pure. Includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz. Timer The timer device made easy! Example of how to create both synchronous and asynchronous waits. Includes a sample C program, a detailed technical discussion, and modules that you can plug in to your C programs. Author: Timm Martin Tripppin A Workbench game based on an out-of-print board game. The object is a race in which each move you make restricts your opponent's choice of countermoves. Features a computer opponent of adjustable toughness. Includes source. Author: Paul Kienitz. Uedit-Stuff A variety of configuration material for Uedit. Includes stuff for remembering multiple chunks of deleted text, interfacing through Rexx with a terminal program, displaying matching '(' characters when you press ')', expanding abbreviations into phrases as you type, easily shifting lines and blocks of text left or right, improvements to several existing Uedit features, and more. Author: Paul Kienitz. V A front-end for Commodore's More or some other text viewer that can be made resident. Can be used from Workbench, greatly reducing disk loading time because V is much smaller than More, which need not be loaded if it is resident. From CLI, causes More to create a new window, specified with an environment variable, rather than using the CLI window. V is itself residentable. Much improved since the version on disk 224, to which it is only distantly related. Includes source in assembly. Author: Paul Kienitz.
