IdleLED Turns the power LED off when the CPU is idle. It operates using timerA on CIAB. This is continuously reset by the idle task running at low priority (-127). When the idle task is preempted by anything, the timer is allowed to underflow causing the interrupt server to run which turns on the power light. Next time the idle task runs, it immediately turns off the power light. Version 1.0a, includes source. Author: Lindsay Meek Term An update to the binaries released on disks 831 and 832.

Author: Geert Uytterhoeven NullModem A software device that imitates two modems and a phone line, on one machine. I wrote it whilst looking at the WPL script- ing language, so that I could play around without having to spend any money on expensive phone calls, but it can be used for testing various other programs. Version 2.0, binary only. Author: Iain Hibbert TWC Two Way Chat & Send enables you to make use of your modem's full-duplex feature - in fact, it can save you up to 50% transmission time. With TWC you can connect to another guy running TWC, then you may transmit file- AND chat-data at the same time in both directions. GUI-driven, requires OS2.04+.

Requires Nick- Prefs or a similar program to display the backdrop. Version 1.00, binary only. Author: Ross MacGregor MagicMenu Replaces all Intuition menus, supporting both "pull-down" and "pop-up" menus. Menus can be displayed in either the Standard look, or the modern AmigaOS 2.0 style 3D-Look, and controlled exclusively using the keyboard, (no need to grab the mouse anymore!) Configurable handling and appearance. Remembers every menu's last selected item, displaying Pop-Up menus the next time at a position allowing quick selection of the same or neighboring items. Automatically brings the currently active screen (if not visible) to the front for menu selection then returns it to the back after a selection is made. Input timeouts, plus much more! Version 1.27, binary only. Author: Martin Korndörfer Move A compact, fast CLI move command that allows the moving of files over multiple devices. It will perform a "true" move (a la rename) when files are being moved around on the same device, making it very fast, while still being able to perform moves over multiple devices. Move will also allow you to move file links, and supports all standard 2.x wildcards. Version 2.2a, requires kickstart 2.04 or higher, binary only.

It understands all common assembler-directives and can generate not only linkable object-files but also absolute code, which can be written to memory, to a file or directly to disk using the 'trackdisk.device'. In all cases the user has the oppor- tunity to choose between the large and small code/data-model. Version V3.30, an update to version V3.00 on disk number 853. Binary only, shareware. Author: Frank Wille PowerData Patches AmigaDOS, enabling all programs to read and write files packed with PowerPacker in way that is completely transparent to themselves and the system.

Author: Jim Dawson CyberPager The CyberPager software allows one to send alpha-numeric pages from one's Amiga. This is accomplished by dialing into an IXO protocol compliant pager central and uploading messages.

Requires AmigaDOS 2.0+, includes source. Author: Christopher A. Wichura DD A directory scanner, something like DIR or LIST, but it does much more. It can use many different types of file lists, sort file lists, analyse file contents, display statistics, search for identical files and so on. Version 1.0, binary only.
