WELCOME TO OTHERWARE 1: Macintosh/Amiga shareware and public domain CD-ROM.
OtherWare 1 is primarily intended for DOS BBS operators who wish to provide
access to Macintosh and Amiga software to their users. No Macintosh or
Amiga interface program has been provided. MegaSearch for DOS and MegaDOOR
(BBS) have been provided for IBM users. All filenames have been converted
to DOS type names with 8 letter names and 3 letter extentions.
All of the files on this CD-ROM have come from the Internet FTP server
wuarchive.wustl.edu.
Most Amiga files have been compressed with LHA, a very popular Amiga
compression utility. Executable copies may be found in \AMIGA\UTILITY\CLI.
Descriptions for Amiga files consist of the original Amiga filename.
Nearly every Macintosh file has been processed by BINHEX and another
compression program such as Stuffit or CompactPro. Read the .INF files
for descriptions and compression information. Macintosh compression
programs can be located in \MAC\UTIL\COMPRESS. Files that are marked
.BIN or .SEA can be run but must be set to MacBinary first after being
copied from the CD-ROM.
Several DOS archivers are in the directory \DOS. They should allow the
extraction of most files contained on this CD-ROM
Enjoy the disc!
