========================== Contents of Disk 980 ==========================
This is disk 980 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.
Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents.
APipe The `APipe-Handler' allows you to add the `APIPE:' DOS
device to your system. This device acts as a pipe between
two programs, but in a different manner than the standard
`PIPE:' device does. This handler interprets the text
after the `APIPE:' prefix as a command line to execute,
and the process/command which opens the file indicated by
the mention of `APIPE:' can now read the standard output
or write the standard input of the program indicated by
the command line depending on whether the `APIPE:' file
was opened for reading or writing, respectively. Thus,
the opening an `APIPE:' file is analogous to the UNIX
`popen()' call, but it is more widely available to the
user. Complete source is included and can be used as an
example of a handler. Version 37.5, an update to version
37.4 on disk number 783.

HWGRCS A 3 part distribution of an RCS 5.6.0.1 port to the Amiga,
currently at patch level 8. Part 1 contains the binaries
and documentation in AmigaGuide and "man" format, part 2
contains the source code to RCS, and part 3 contains the
source code and binaries for patch and diffutils. The
Revision Control System (RCS) manages multiple revisions of
text files. RCS automates the storing, retrieval, logging,
identification, and merging of revisions. RCS is useful for
text that is revised frequently, for example: programs, doc-
umentation, graphics, papers, form letters, etc. Included
are RCS 5.6, GNU diffutils 2.6 and an LP utility to support
paged diff outputs. Part 1 on disk 980, part 2 is on disk
981, and part 3 is on disk 982.

ConPaste ConPaste is a 2.0 commodity that allows you to paste clipped
text into anything. Paste into string gadgets. Paste into
any text application. In this new version, ConPaste drops
its priority by 1 when pasting text to allow sufficient
processor time for the receiving task or window to process
the text. When you press a user-defined key or key combina-
tion, ConPaste will take any FTXT found in clipboard unit 0,
convert the text back into input events, and send the input
events into the input stream. The output will go to the
active window or string gadget. This is version 37.25, an
update to the version distributed with ClipWindow by Jim
Harvey, on disk 935.
Author: Carolyn Scheppner
HuntWindows Starting with 2.0 you can make screens bigger than the
visual size of your monitor. On a double-size workbench,
catching windows like requesters etc. can be quite annoying
at times. This little utility hangs itself on the VBI
(Vertical Blank Interrupt) to find out which window is
being activated and moves the screen to show the window in
full view. Version 3.3, an update to version 1.4 on disk
number 774. Includes source in assembler.
