REVIEW: Meeting Pearls 4 CD-ROM

by: Pauli Porkka


CD-Title: Meeting Pearls Other review: Meeting Pearls 4


Meeting Pearls is a 4th in a series compiled by Angela Schmidt. The stuff in the CD has been compiled by many people of which you can find information about in the contrib directory. Basically this CD-ROM contains PD/SW programs, utilities and data files of various nature. Actual files on a CD are divided on a structure quite similar to that of aminet.

For starters you can 'install' the cd. Installer makes some assigns for the programs in the CD, so that you can more easily use the programs directly from the CD. CD provides VERY good search utility for searching with different parameters. Also system called MetaTool is provided so that you can set your own favourite programs to show/view files from a CD (for example jpeg pictures, text files..)

As whole very good compilation, different to Aminet collection in that it doesn't contain all that unncessary datafiles which are uploaded to Aminet. More sorted and filtered by the people using the stuff and collecting it. This CD is one of those creations which are made for the love of the Amiga, the 'more-than-just-computer' which we all love and try to keep up despite the uncertainty and sometimes despair.
