Author: Peter Bain
grep Decus grep (Get Regular Expression and Print). Useful
for finding strings in files.
Author: Unknown
kermit This is an absolutely ancient kermit, who's only
saving grace is that it is small and quite portable.
On the AMIGA, there is no connect mode, only send and
receive. You must log into the remote machine via
one of it's local terminals and point it's kermit at the
appropriate serial line connected to the AMIGA.
Author: Unknown, but it is so hacked up it doesn't
matter by now.
MyCLI Another CLI for the AMIGA.

input.dev In combination with hander.interface.asm (supplied),
lets a user trap keyboard or mouse events before they
get to Intuition and if desired, install new (phony/
generated/other-devices-mouse-simulations) into the
input stream. Handler.interface.asm is needed to convert
the calling sequence performed by the input.task for
the input stream management into something that a
C program can understand.

Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85
print.support Printer support routines. Currently won't compile,
missing a header file "local.h".
Author: unknown
proctest Sample code to create a process, set up message ports,
pass messages, etc. Sample slave code for create process
test (littleproc.c) currently does not link under either
Lattice C 3.02 or 3.03 (unresolved global variables not
in libraries).
Author: Rob Peck 1/4/86

exec support functions for extended IO requests,
CreateExtIO() to allocate and initialize a new IO request
block and DeleteExtIO() to free an extended IO request
block.
Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85
text.demo Sample program that asks AvailFonts() to make a list of
the fonts that are available, then opens a window and
then prints a description of the various attributes that
can be applied to the fonts, in the font itself.
Previous versions were released as "whichfont".
Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85
timer Simple timer example program. Includes dynamic
allocation of data structures needed to communicate
with the timer device, as well as the actual device
IO.
Author: Rob Peck 12/1/85
trackdisk Demonstrates use of trackdisk driver. Useful example of
"raw" disk read/write.
Author Rob Peck 12/1/85
========================== Contents of Disk 006 ==========================
This is disk 6 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.
compress Compress reduces the size of the named files using
adaptive Lempel-Ziv coding. The amount of compression
obtained depends on the size of the input, the number of
bits per code, and the distribution of common substrings.
Typically, text such as source code or English is reduced
by 50-60%. Compression is generally much better then that
achieved by Huffman coding (as used in "pack") or
adaptive Huffman coding (as used in "compact"), and takes
less time to compute. Great for saving disk space, or
reducing transmission time over phone lines! Also includes
"btoa" and "atob" for converting binary files to ascii, and
then back to binary (for transmission over links that do
not support 8 bits).
Author: Thomas Spencer, with improvements by others
dadc A digital computer impersonating an analog clock
impersonating a digital clock.
Author: Perry S. Kivolowitz
microemacs An upgraded version of microemacs originally distributed
on disk number 2. I don't have an exact list of changes
but the new executable is about 25% larger, so there must
be something in there! One enhancement is that some
functions are now also bound to function keys.
Author: Dave Conroy, with enhancements by Jack Roose.
mult Mult reads the input comparing adjacent lines. In the
normal case, the second and succeeding copies of repeated
lines are output, and the remainder of the lines are
removed. Repeated lines must be adjacent in order to be
found. Options are present to output the first of multiple
lines, for comparing adjacent lines by field only, and for
specifying the field separator character. Kind of the
opposite of the Unix "uniq" program.
Author: Dennis Bednar
scales Demonstrates use of the Audio functions in the ROM to
produce four voice sound. It uses a simple waveform
(sawtooth) with no amplitude control (ie, envelope)
or frequency variation (ie, vibrato), but these can be
easily implemented. Also includes considerable
documentation on audio device.
Author: Steven A. Bennett
setparallel Allows the CLI user to dynamically change any particular
parallel port parameter.
Author: Keith Stobie and Tom Pohorsky
setserial Allows the CLI user to dynamically change any particular
serial port parameter.
Author: Keith Stobie and Tom Pohorsky
sortc A quicksort based sort program, using separate driver
and sort modules. Originally from a DECUS C distribution.
Claims to be fast, but when operating entirely out of ram
takes 93 seconds to sort its input file, sort.c, while
AmigaDos's sort takes only 43 seconds under the same
conditions.
Author: Dave Conroy, Martin Minow, and Ray Van Tassle
stripc Strips comments and extraneous whitespace from C source
files. Useful for compacting the C header files to
increase usable disk space.
Author: Chris Metcalf

sparks Graphics demo that draws a "moving pathway", adding
to the front and removing from the tail (sure is
hard to come up with verbal descriptions of these
things!).
