Several new additions (must haves) in PAULY"AMIGA"::
o DANSPL.ARC A superb print spooler. Actually, it's a new handler for
device PRT: and works with any print command. Simply
do what you'd normally do to print a file. Instead of
being sent directly to PRT: it is copied to RAM: where
it sits in a queue (just like on VMS). PRINTC is the
command provided to allow displaying the queue (just
like SHOW QUEUE in VMS). How did I ever get along without
this?
o QVIEW.ARC Another file viewer. This one is very small and smartly
uses the UP/DOWN arrow keys to scroll through the file.
o AMIDEX.ARC One of the better address books I've seen for the Amiga.
o PRINT2.ARC Set up your printer through CLI rather than through
Preferences. I have mine defined as a function key with
MACHII. This is another well written program from
the Persian Gulf.
o QUADPRT.ARC This utility takes a picture and increases its size 4x.
The "quads" can then be pasted together to create a "poster."
o LEX.ARC Performs a lexical analysis of any text file.
o DIR.ARC Another directory command that displays several filenames
per line.
o ATOMCLK.ARC Automatically dials up the NBS and sets the Amiga's
internal clock to the most accurate time in the world.
o MACH24C.ARC The very latest MACHII utility.
o HELP11.ARC A pop-up HELP screen utility. Very handy.

I'm having problems accessing these file (during and after hours).
I get a node not reachable error (has this node changed areas?).

Not sure why it's happening, but something out there is causing
the node to crash (requiring). A number of people have already
downloaded files.
Just keep trying I suppose.

Has anyone out there downloaded this files onto their VAX ?? I've
been trying for a week now to get some of these files, but PAULY
is always unreachable. If you have these files, please post the
location here so that others may benifit. Thank you for your support.

Re. 4
I have been able to copy qview, amidex, print2, lex,
dir, atomclk and help11 to PUERTO::DISK$PUBLIC:[ALVAREZ.PUBLIC].
They will be there a couple of weeks only. If I am able to copy
any others, I'll tell here.
