Boolean, String, Memo (Text), Date and Time. Number of data-
sets is only limited by available memory. Also included in
the package are some example projects. Version 1.31, an up-
date to version 1.21 on disk 813. Shareware, binary only.

public screen. If the front-most screen isn't a public screen,
nothing changes. It wedges into the vertical blanking inter-
rupt server chain and watches Intuition's record of the front

task is signaled and responds by making the front-most screen
the default public screen if possible. This is all totally
transparent and happens very quickly, and is very handy for
people who have seperate screens for Shell windows etc.

tion, it provides a very generalized mechanism for tracking
the state of all of its gadgets to support automatic resizing
and closing and opening of a window without loss of context.

module that can be used for everything from drawing frames
around groups of gadgets to creating custom images for BOOPSI
gadgets. Version 2.0, includes the library, programmer support

WBvwm With Workbench 2.04 we got the ability to use a bigger Work-

sensitivity is simply not neccesary. On the other hand,
users of MUI based applications have the ability to custom-
ize nearly every pixel of a program's interface according

JustLook A collection of routines for controlling the mouse and key-
board thru generation of 'Input Events'. Implemented as
object code to be linked with your programs. This is for
application writers who like to include HowToDo programs
with their applications. Users can actually see how to do
things, rather than describing them in document files. This
is not a recorder, mouse and keyboard events are generated
in real time and so the software adapts itself to changes
at a particular execution. Includes example programs and
source in C and assembly.

DDLI The Duniho and Duniho Life Pattern Indicator (DDLI) is a
program that asks you questions in order to determine your
Life Pattern. The Life Patterns correspond to the sixteen
psychological types measured by the Myers-Briggs Type

added to the study of Type, this program also checks itself
by asking supplementary questions about other preferences
that correlate with a person's type.

ITF Amiga port of ITF4.01. ITF stands for "Infocom Task Force".
There have been several ports of Infocom interpreters to the
Amiga, but none of this program. The interpreter supports
v1, v2, v3 (Zork1 to Stationfall), v4 (Trinity, Bureaucracy,

more than any other freely distributable interpreter. With
this interpreter you can play ALL the games in the LTOI2

DOS or similar, then just running this interpreter. Re-
quires OS 2.0+. Binary only.

PCal Creates a very nice looking postscript calendar. By
default, PCal simply prints an empty calendar. Its

extraordinary flexibility.

SuperDuper An exciting, high-speed disk copier and formatter. Typical
timings are 99s for a disk-to-disk verified copy, or 38s for
a four disk non-verified format. Also available are buffer-
ing in RAM, on a hard disk image file or on any sector-
based Amiga device, like RAD:, VDO:, FMS:, etc. Real-time
compression using the Xpk standard allows to copy in one
pass most disks on 1M Amigas, especially in conjunction
with a special utility which "hides" external drives to the
system (but not to SuperDuper). Bells and whistles include
high density floppy support, voice, automatic date incre-
ment, a list of the disks copied, and automatic start of
operations based on disk insertion/ejection sensing. Works
on any Amiga under 2.0 and beyond. The changes from version
3.0 are mainly bug fixes and some new features, namely
optional simple refresh windows, the new NoStartup switch,
automatic source disk reads, and better window management.
Version 3.1, an update to version 3.0 on disk number 903.

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.

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
