========================== Contents of Disk 910 ========================== This is disk 910 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. DefPubScreen A little wedge that makes the front-most screen the default public screen. If the front-most screen isn't a public screen, nothing changes. It wedges into the vertical blanking inter- rupt server chain and watches Intuition's record of the front most screen. When the front-most screen changes, the main task is signaled and responds by making the front-most screen the default public screen if possible. This is all totally transparent and happens very quickly, and is very handy for people who have seperate screens for Shell windows etc. Version 2.00, binary only. Author: Matt Francis DSound DSound is an 8SVX sound sample player that plays samples directly off a hard drive, without having to load an entire sample into memory first, making it possible to play samples of any length even under limited memory conditions. Version 1.30, an update to version 1.20 on disk number 729. This version fixes some bugs and adds a display to the DSound window that shows the length of the sample and the amount played so far, both in minutes::seconds format. Includes source. Author: Dave Schreiber IEv4Demo An icon editor which can create and modify icons up to 640x256 pixels in size, up to 256 colors, edit all non-graphical icon parameters including up to 40 tooltypes, import/export IFF images, recolour icons for DOS2.0, write text into icon in any font and style, scale icon images, edit default icons, select screen resolution and magnification for editing, and much more!

Online help is (optionally) available everywhere using AmigaGuide. Installs as a simple commodity and is of course hotkey controllable. Requires at least Kickstart 2.04. Certain bonus features require 3.0 or later. Localized, CatComp source included. Version 37.64, binary only, shareware Author: Michael Berg WBKillAGA Workbench interface for Jolyon Ralph's "KillAGA" program, providing a short program that can be used as the "default tool" for an icon.

Version 36.22 release 1.6 beta, includes source and an example program. Author: Timothy J. Aston GadOutline A shared library intended to provide programmers with a means of describing the general layout of a GUI in a font-independant manner, taking care of the details of determining the exact placement of the individual elements of the display and the drudgery of creating and managing all of the gadgets. In addi- tion, it provides a very generalized mechanism for tracking the state of all of its gadgets to support automatic resizing and closing and opening of a window without loss of context. Includes automatic hotkey support and a vector based drawing module that can be used for everything from drawing frames around groups of gadgets to creating custom images for BOOPSI gadgets. Version 2.0, includes the library, programmer support files and some examples. Author: Dianne Hackborn PSM Yet Another Public Screen Program. It was primarily written as a demonstration of the gadoutline.library, and is thus current- ly very GUIcentric - it does no command line parsing for CLI users or even look at its Workbench tooltypes. On the other hand, it does have a very sophisticated multi-window user interface and allows almost complete control over the creation of screens. Version 1.0, binary only.
