This document contains various bits and pieces that did not belong anywhere
else.

Installation
Simply boot your normal Amiga system up, then extract the archive to
anywhere; ramdisk, blank floppy disk or harddisk.
LHA x EasyCalc2.lha DEST: (Where DEST: is a directory)
The above line will extract the archive.
Any problems then E-mail me at awoods@enigmade.demon.co.uk

Required Libraries
The following are essential to the running of EasyCalc 2.0, and should
already be available in your LIBS: assignment (or in the EasyCalc2.0
drawer):
commodities.library
icon.library
iffparse.library
mathieeedoubbas.library
mathieeedoubtrans.library
mathtrans.library
reqtools.library (<--- This is copyright Nico François)
This one is standard on WB3.0+, and a compatible version is supplied with
EasyCalc 2.0 for WB2.0 systems. This file is required to view the
AmigaGuide® documentation that comes with EasyCalc 2.0. However EasyCalc
2.0 will work without it:
amigaguide.library
Another optional library that is needed to provide the Arexx facilities of
EasyCalc 2.0. Again, EasyCalc 2.0 will run without it, but at the expense
of the Arexx interface:
rexxsyslib.library

What's On The Disk?
EasyRexx (dir)
Bounce.erex SetWidth.erex
A couple of example Arexx scripts (one useful, one not). Can be ran
straight from EasyCalc 2.0 if RexxMast is running.
Examples (dir)
EXAMPLE.calc FamilyBudget.calc
OldEasyCalc.calc STRINGS.calc
Some example files to look at. Nothing very fancy, sorry, but EasyCalc 2.0
is late enough, and space is tight.
ArexxCommands.guide
Describes the ArexxCommand set. If you know Arexx already this should be
easy enough to follow, otherwise you will find it hard going.
easycalc.guide
AmigaGuide® file containing main documentation for the program.
EasyCalc2.0
The EasyCalc Plus program itself.

Credits
As with all my software, I owe a lot to many unsung people out there,
sadly, I've lost my list of credits that I have slowly been building.
However I can mention a couple of people:
Nico Francois for the superb ReqTools.library and the tiny ppMore text
viewer.
Joanna Taylor, my partner for putting up with all the late nights (oo-er)
of programming without too many complaints.
CBM Amiga, for the best computer and the best operating system ever.
Kew=II Software, for all their help over the years.
If you feel you should join this list, then write to me explaining why, and
I'll add you to this roll of honour.

Advertisment Break
DiskManager 4.0
Disk cataloger and organiser. Allows those elusive programs on Utilities
disk 16 to be found quickly. Keeps track of disk space as well as files,
so you can find space for that new BBS download. Amiga Shopper (Britain's
premier serious magazine) gave this 9/10 and said "anyone with a large
collection of floppies should have DiskManager". This is a major upgrade,
see why dozens of users have registered.
Features:
· Search for free disk space. DiskManagerIII allows you to enter an amount
of disk space needed (for that new piece of software) then it finds all the
disks with space available.
· Complex file searches and tagging. DiskManagerIII makes full use of
AmigaDOS wildcards to limit searches, deletes etc to certain files.
· Now needs WB2 to run.
· DiskManager4.0 has lots of special features, such as the ability to skip
.info (icon) files and Amiga system directories like S and DEVS. This
prevents the database being cluttered with repeated files.
· A full disk label generator is attached to the database. You just pick
the disk and files for the label and DiskManagerIII prints off a custom
label.
· DiskManager4.0 allows comments to be attached to disks. Keep track of
that disk with the dodgy sector!
· When adding a disk to the database, DiskManager4.0 will recognise many
common file formats and store the file type in the database. No more
wondering what xyz.dat is now!
· Lists of directories and files that should be skipped from the database
are supported.
