4571.0. "Useful Shareware/Freeware for Internet Roadmap CD" by teco.mro.dec.com::tecotoo.mro.dec.com::mayer (Danny Mayer) Tue Mar 25 1997 12:09

        We are looking for some useful shareware or freeware tools to highlight
  for the Internet Roadmap for Windows NT.  We are looking for tools that
  run on both Intel and Alpha NT (and Windows 95).  Some of the more useful
  tools are things like Winzip, WS-FTP, QVTNT, and Polyview.  However, these
  tools were build for Intel only and we need some tools that were build
  for both Intel and Alpha.  If you can put together your top 5 list of
  tools with a brief description as follows and send it to the following
  Email address:  [email protected] and we will collate and
  review the tools.

        Please follow the following general format for each tool:

  Name: MVIEW            Intel Binary: Yes       Alpha Binary: Yes
  Owner: Digital Equipment Corporation
  Location:
http://roadmap.mro.dec.com/RoadmapCD/HTML/SHAREWARE/SHAREWAREINDEX.HTM#Viewers
  Description:
     Mview will play any MPEG file.  If a WAV file of the same name with
     extension .wav exists, and there is a Windows NT wave audio device and
     driver on the system, and audio is enabled on the player, then Mview
     will play the MPEG file synched to the audio.

  Comments:  Seems to be bug free.  I have run it on a number of different
  programs.  The Alpha version really runs well.


        Sending mail to [email protected] is preferable at this
  point rather than responding here though I will collect all suggestions.
