Latest directory listing from AUTHOR::USER:[MACDONALD.PUBLIC.AMIGA]
A2000.ARC A HI-RES B&W picture of the Amiga 2000 created with
DigiView. (from the March issue of Byte)
ARC23.ARC The latest version of ARC.
BROWSER.ARC A very nice directory and file reader utility.
CALENDAR.ARC A neat Calendar utility.
CANON.ARC New Canon PJ-1080A printer driver along with info on how
to obtain a new character rom for $6.00 that gives you
true descenders and even heighted lowercase.
CHFONT.ARC A font changer that can be run from your startup-sequence
file. Usage is CHFONT newfont_name.FONT
CLUE.ARC The fabulous who-dunnit game with exceptional graphics.
DISPLAY.ARC Allows you to display any IFF standard graphics on
screen, including HI-RES B&W and HAM.
DUIV.ARC Slick multifunction directory utility.
LOGO.ARC An implementation of LOGO for the Amiga.
MCAD.ARC Superb shareware CAD drawing package. A must have!
MELT.ARC Nice graphics demo. Watch your Amiga screen melt away!
MISSILE.ARC Fair to midland nuclear anihilation game for the Amiga.
MORE.ARC Handy utility for display text files in your current
CLI window, or from an icon. Let's you know how much
of the file you've read!
REVERSI.ARC What would life be without a talking game of REVERSI.
RSLCLK.ARC My favorite menu bar clock program that allows you
to display time, date, free chip and fast ram, free
disk space and much more. I would recommend resetting
the task priority to 0 after running the program. It
defaults to 20 which can interfere with other programs,
most notably AmigaBASIC (for some reason).
SHELL_205M.ARC Drew's Amiga shell program. Gives you the feel of VMS.
Be sure to download SHELL.DOC and README.205M.
STARCH.ARC A nice star chart and constellation identifier containing
a large database of star information. A "must have"
educational program.
TILT.ARC Every Amiga needs this one!
UEDIT.ARC A rather sophisticated text processor with more
commands than Wordstar! Even utilizes the Amiga's
voice synthesizer to tell you verbally when errors
have been made. The CHEAT-SHEET file is a quick
reference to all the commands and features.
VC.ARC A reasonable implementation of a spreadsheet that works!
VT102.ARC Another pretty good VT emulator that features 132 and 80
columns, smooth and jump scroll, and double height and
double wide characters.
ZOING.ARC Everyone's favorite. This one uses bouncing heads though!

| 450.1 | HELP ME! | VICKI::CAMPANELLA | Michael Campanella, DTN 261-2595 | Tue Apr 14 1987 02:49 | 11 |
I would like to copy these files on to my amiga, but I've never
used Kermit and/or arcxx.bin before.
Can you give me instructions for transferring files to my Amiga?
I have a copy of kermit_32 in my account, and I copied arc16.bin
into my account too. I'm using a vt100 v2.3 emulator to log in.
Someone care to help a beginner?
Michael

| 450.4 | Still need help transferring files! | VICKI::CAMPANELLA | Michael Campanella, DTN 261-2595 | Fri Apr 17 1987 19:17 | 10 |
I've been trying to copy files to my Amiga thru KERMIT in the VT100
program. I log in thru Tymnet and TSN, and the KERMIT notes file
people think I should try setting the parity to even on each kermit
program, but I don't know how to set the parity on the Amiga.
Has anyone had success transferring files over Tymnet to the Amiga?
HELP!!!
Michael

| 450.5 | We Got Viewers.. | LEDS::ACCIARDI | Fri Apr 24 1987 23:11 | 13 | |
In response to someone's request, (sorry, I forgot who) I have uploaded
a bunch of viewer utilities, including Dave Wecker's 'DISPLAY' (for
ray-traced images from DBW_Render) and ViewILBM and SeeALL. The
latter two will allow viewing of any IFF files, including HAM images.
Also included in the archive is a nifty utility that allows you
to read any ASCII file by clicking on a WorkBench icon.
Yours for the asking at...

The latest entries in the DirUtil wars are in ...
JAKE::USER2:[ACCIARDI.AMIGA]
I have included a neat new version called 'UtiliDir'. This one
is fully Intuition-ized, with pull-down menus etc.
There is also a new version of the popular DUX.
