- ADJCLOCK - Adjclock will print out information that will help you if you
- are trying to adjust the trimmer capacitor for the battery backed
- clock. Adjclock needs to be run from the CLI with a fairly large
- (<-precise technical term) window open.
-
- AREXXLOG - The logon.rexx and logoff.rexx programs support a log record for
- any number of users, one at a time, to record computer usage
- sessions, generating a log file showing all logon events per date
- and time, elapsed time until logoff, and accumulated time over any
- number of sessions. This program requires ARexx to be installed on
- your system.
-
- B1SUBS - Part 1 of a (possible) series of sub-routines which either extend
- the power of AmigaBasic, or just save a lot of typing. They were
- gleaned from magazines and books or constructed from bits and pieces
- gathered from everywhere. Most of the sub-routines are presented as
- free-standing programs which can easily be stripped to their essentials
- and incorporated into you programs.
-
- CM - CM is a Celestial Mechanics simulation tool. It allows you to
- construct a layout of Masses (called Bodys) and specify various
- parameters concerning both the bodys and the simulation. All input
- is accomplished through a fully intuitionized interface. CM then
- proceeds to animate the bodys according to the laws of gravational
- attraction ( F = Gm1m2/r^2 ). Setups may be saved to disk to allow
- you later re-inact interesting scenarios.
-
- CWAR111 - Circuit War is a 2-4 player strategy game that involves a great
- deal of strategy! The game requires the victorious player to crush the
- opposing CPU's by draining their energy levels to below zero, & only a
- collision with a gridrunner accomplishes this.
-
- DFC2 - This is dfc, a disk copying and formatting utility written by
- Radical Eye Software. This program is in the public domain. Version 2
- released on 4 Febuary 1989. Supplied default `Empty' name on format
- if no name given. Automatically retries first cylinder to avoid
- `errors' because of too-late diskchange.
-
- GEOVIEW - GeoView is a geoPaint viewer for the Amiga. GeoPaint pictures
- can be viewed in either low resolution (320x200) or high resolution
- (640x400). GeoView can also print out the whole picture or the
- portion of the picture that is visible on the screen. It can be run
- from the Workbench or CLI.
-
- IFFEXISTS - IfExists corrects a problem with the IF EXISTS construct as
- used in batch files or your startup-sequence. The problem was that if,
- for example, the line IF EXISTS DF3 - were used in the startup-sequence
- and DF3 - were not mounted, a requestor would appear and the
- startup-sequence would stop and wait for a click on Cancel.
-
- JGAMES - There are three strategy-type games inj this set - 15 - you must
- align the squares so that the numbers are in sequential order 1-15,
- moving only one square at a time. (2) Concentration - match the same
- picture hidden behind two squares to get a hint toward the 5-letter
- word you are trying to recognize. (3) Tower of Hanoi - move the blocks
- according to the rules in order to stack the blocks on the opposite
- pole.
-
- KBENCH13 - Finally, KickBench arrives for AmigaDOS 1.3! The files included
- in this archive will convert a copy of KickStart 1.3 into a combination
- KickStart and WorkBench disk. In addition to the included files, you
- will need a program called WARP which is available from just about any
- BBS system, Fred Fish, your favorite Amiga users group or from a
- friendly Amiga dealer.
-
- KPTR - Kaleidepointer replaces your pointer with a grid of moving
- pixels. The first argument, if given, is taken as the width, in
- pixels, of the grid. The second, if given, is taken as the height.
- The default width is 16, and the default height is 14.
-
- MD - MD is a simple memory diagnostic program. It allocates as much
- memory as it can, writes a value to it, and reads the value. If the
- value read is not the same as the value MD wrote MD reports an error.
- It repeats the process until each byte of memory has been tested with
- four test values - 0x00, 0xff, 0x55, and 0xaa. The error report
- identifies the address where the bad value was found, the value found,
- and the value expected.
-
- SHOWPATH - ShowPath was written out of my frustration to get a fully
- qualified file listing which I could edit and use as an EXECUTE script
- file to cleanup my hard drive. Shows path to every file on the disk.
-
- WPDESK - This is a printer driver for the HP Deskjet to use with
- WordPerfect. The author of the program converted the driver that HP
- supplies for IBM-WordPerfect owners, and here is the Amiga version.
