DISK NUMBER 53
--------------
Animations Some animations made with Aegis Animator. Includes
a player program.
Author: Aegis Development
ARCre Creates rename scripts so that files with long names can
be easily archived and dearchived correctly by "arc".
Author: John Hoffman
Arp Some preliminary programs from a program started on BIX
by Charlie Heath to replace all the BCPL AmigaDOS programs
with assembly equivalents. Includes "break", "cd", "chmod",
"echo", "filenote", and "makedir".
Author: Charlie Heath and Scott Ballantyne
Compiler An optimizing C compiler for the 68000. Has successfully
compiled itself on a 68000 based Unix system V machine,
but has yet to be fully ported to the Amiga. It will
currently produce assembly output for simple C routines
on the Amiga, but needs lots of work to be really useful
as anything other than a learning tool for budding compiler
guru's.
Author: Matthew Brandt
SpreadSheet A simple "Visicalc-like" spread sheet calculator. Also
known as "vc" but there is currently a debate about whether
or not that name is a registered trademark. The version
on disk number 36 was based on an earlier version of the
same source. This release also includes source code.
Author: James Gosling, Mark Weiser, and Bob Bond
Amiga port by Dave Wecker
TarSplit A port of the OS/9 program that extracts files from
Unix tar archives.
Author: James Jones. Amiga version by Mike Meyer.
UUencode Programs to encode/decode binary files for transmittal
via mail or other text-only methods. The binary file
is expanded by approximately 35% for transmittal. This
release is an update to the version on disk number 38,
and includes a simple line-by-line checksum technique that
can read and write files compatible with the older
uuencode/uudecode.
Author: Mark Horton with mods by Alan Rosenthal
DISK NUMBER 52
--------------
Assign Replacement for AmigaDOS assign command, written in C.
Author: Charles McManis

fractal terrain.

polygons of any of the possible 4096 colors.
Author: John Olsen

Author: Stephen Vermeulen

user interface, and some other new features including
a color palette mixer and DPaint style brushes, extended
cutting features, area locking, and a flexible printing
interface.
Author: Stephen Vermeulen
DISK NUMBER 51
--------------
Bison A replacement for unix "yacc" command. This is from
the GNU (GNU is Not Unix) effort, and was obtained
from the Free Software Foundation. This is a working
update to the version on disk number 4, provided by
Johan Widen.
Author: Bob Corbett and Richard Stallman
Compress This is an update to the compress version released
on disk number 6. It is tested and seems to work
well except for a couple glitches noticed at the
last minute (see the README file). Compress reduces the
size of the named files using adaptive Lempel-Ziv coding.
The amount of compression obtained depends on the size of
the input, the number of bits per code, and the distribution
of common substrings. Typically, text such as source code
or English is reduced by 50-60%. Compression is generally
much better then that achieved by Huffman coding
(as used in "pack") or adaptive Huffman coding
(as used in "compact"), and takes less time to compute.
Author: Thomas Spencer, with improvements by others
Cos A "Wheel Of Fortune" style game in AmigaBasic.
Author: Steve Michel
DifSsed Dif produces a difference file which lists the
line by line differences between any two text files.
These differences can be fed to ssed (a stream type
editor), along with the original text file, to remotely
reproduce the other (new) file. Binary only.
Author: Chuck Forsberg, Amiga port by Rich Schaeffer
Sq.Usq Portable versions of the CPM sq and usq utilities.
Author: R. Greenlaw, many changes by Bill Swan
DISK NUMBER 50
--------------
Note that many of the programs on this disk are shareware/freeware.
This means that if you find them useful, you are morally obligated
to send a small donation to the author to help support his efforts and
fund further development. I hope that by including them in this
library I have furthered the author's goals of widest possible
distribution and thus maximum return. Also note (for those that
like to split hairs) that I am distributing this disk as a "freebee".
To receive a copy, just request it when ordering any other disks from
the library.
Asm A shareware macro assembler, submitted by the author.
Asm is a 68010 macro assembler that is compatible with
the assembler described in the AmigaDOS manual. This is
version 1.1, an update to the version on disk number 46,
and includes bug fixes, additional standard Motorola
mnemonics and a simple startup code module.
Author: Douglas Leavitt
BreakOut A 3-D game. Requires 3-D glasses.
Author: Tim Kemp
DiskZap Program to "edit" a disk, sector by sector. Version 1.1.

Du Computes disk usage of a file or directory (including
subdirectories). Very handy.
Author: Joe Mueller
MemWatch Memwatch is a program intended to sit in the background
and watch for random trashing of low memory by an
application under development. If it detects a write
to low memory, it repairs it to what used to be there,
then puts up a requester indicating what damage had been
done. Very useful!
Author: John Toebes
Profiler A realtime execution profiler for Manx 3.30E. Using this
you can identify what sections of your program are using
the most time, or being executed the most, and optimize
as appropriate. I was able to double the speed of some
programs by using this tool. Includes source.
Author: Tomas Rokicki
