MandelSquare Yet another program to generate images from the Mandelbrot
set, different from most implementations in that it runs
only under AmigaOS 2.x, requires an '020/'030/'040 CPU and a
numerical coprocessor. The calculation routines were
written in '881 assembly language for maximum speed and
precision. Also included is a `movie mode' which allows
generation of long camera zooms to spots in the Mandelbrot
set. The resulting animations can be saved in ANIM-opt-5
format, allowing to replay them using `MandelSquare' or
standard animation software. Enhancements include support
for the AGA chipset (now you can finally create images in
256 colours!) and several bug fixes and improvements in the
image and animation creation code. This is version 1.6, an
update to version 1.3 on disk 589. Includes source in C and
assembly language.

version 1.6 on disk 758, and contains a few improvements and
some bug fixes. Requires AmigaDOS 2.0, includes source.

Mines A game in which you have to logically find out which parts of
the mine-field are not mined. There are many kinds of mine-
fields and you have to be very careful to be able to solve the
most difficult levels. Mines opens its own window on a Work-
bench screen and it's multitasking friendly. This game was
made and tested under Workbench 2.0, so the colors may look a
bit strange under WB1.3. Version 2.0, binary only.
Author: Teemu Sipilä and Marko Malmberg
