1812.ARC           DMCS version of the 1812 Overture. Requires some non-DMCS
                   instruments.

ADDRESS.ARC        A useful address book. Easy to use and maintain.

ANIM.ARC           A program for viewing animations.

BACKGA.ARC         A good implementation of one of my old favorites -
                   backgammon.

BERSERK.ARC        Remember the Juggler? Some people think this is better!

BURGER.ARC         Have a Big Mac Attack and get this icon. Use ICONTYPE to
                   change it. Right now its a DISK.INFO icon.

CANON.ARC          Canon PJ1080A printer driver.

COLORCUBE.ARC      A simple way to determine RGB codes for screen colors.
                   This utility makes it easy to set the foreground,
                   background, bold, and cursor colors of Wecker's VT100 or
                   Leibow's VT200 emulators.

COLOUR.ARC         An easy way to set your Workbench to either 1, 2, or 3
                   color planes. (3=8 colors, 2=4 colors, 1=2 colors)

DIFF.ARC           Look at the differences between two files. DeARC the BUILD
                   batch file, then execute it. Everything will be done for
                   you.

EIGHT.ARC          Increase the number of colors on your Workbench screen.

EPSONLQ.ARC        This is a fine LQ800 or LQ850 printer driver that supports
                   the four graphics densities that these printers are
                   capable of. I use it with my LQ850. Densities are set
                   in Preferences through different combinations of the
                   LETTER/DRAFT and 8 LPI/6 LPI settings. The READ.ME file
                   explains it all. A driver for the LQ1000 or LQ1050 is also
                   included. Thanks to Fred Kohler. This is a great driver
                   for V1.2 Preferences users. New LQ driver in V1.3.

GOMF.ARC           That famous Guru basher (V1.0). Shareware!

HAGEND.ARC         This is the now legendary BAGDE Killer Demo Contest winner.
                   A fabulous animation that will run on a 512K Amiga.

HARRIER.ARC        A nice b&w animation of a real Harrier jump-jet taking off
                   and landing. This requires some expansion ram (512K). It
                   won't work without it.

HP11C.ARC          An extraordinary full-function Hewlett-Packard HP-11C
                   calculator. They don't come any better. This one even looks
                   like the real thing!

ICONIF.ARC         I haven't looked too closely at this, but it contains
                   much info on iconification.

ICONTOOLS.ARC      Contains ICONTYPE, ZAPICON, and ALTICON along with docs.
                   All the tools you need to create animated icons and change
                   the function of existing icons.

KAHNANKAS.ARC      An extraordinary animation of clacking steel balls.

LABELS.ARC         A simple labelmaker utility for standard-sized
                   (2 1/2" x 15/16") tractor-fed labels. Selectable for
                   one, two, or three labels across. This utility is
                   ideal for generating labels for monthly bills, since
                   it will optionally print sequential MmmYY in the upper left
                   corner of each label. I use it all the time.

LESS.ARC           An enhanced version of MORE, but larger in size. Reads
                   text files in a full screen with various features including
                   online help.

MACH22.ARC         The latest mouse accelerator, with hotkeys, sun mouse,
                   one or two click click-to-front, call coster, clock,
                   popcli, screen blanker, standard or military time, and
                   much more. Use this instead of PopCLI. V2.2 has a gadget-
                   laden screen for easy setup. I love this one!

MICROVAX.ARC       An IFF and PS picture of the new MicroVAX 3500 and 3600.

MOVIE.ARC          A utility to play all those neat animations like KAHNANKAS.

NAG17.ARC          The latest and greatest appointment calendar that you run
                   as a background task. More features than V1.6.

NEWZAP.ARC         V3.1 of the best PD disk editor around.

ORBITS.ARC         V1.7C or my famous satellite tracking program. Shareware
                   with a suggested donation to AMSAT.

POPCLI2.ARC        V2 of the handiest Amiga utility ever devised. See
                   POPCLI.TXT for sample startup-sequence command.

POPCLI3.ARC        V3 of POPCLI. Blanks the screen with Qix graphics. Pretty
                   neat. I run this AND POPCLI2 concurrently.

POPCLI.TXT         A sample startup-sequence for POPCLI.

PRTGEN22.ARC       The latest printer driver generator program.

RUNBACK.ARC        Use this to execute tasks in the background without tying
                   up a CLI window. Great for running out of your
                   startup-sequence. See START.ARC for a sample.

SHAR.ARC           SH and SHAR (pack and unpack) USENET commands. DeARC the
                   BUILD file, and execute. Everything will be done for you.
                   IT GURUS MY MACHINE ALL THE TIME.

SNIPIT.ARC         A great cut and paste utility that you should have for
                   your Workbench. It even works between a VT200 window
                   and a CLI window. The documentation has an error though.
                   You must hold down the CTRL key and Left Amiga key
                   together when clicking the mouse. The documentation
                   provided by the author erroneously omits the CTRL key.

SOUNDS.ARC         Nice PD sound editor with sample sound files.

SOLITAIRE.ARC      No Amiga hacker should be without this nice PD game.
                   Runs under AmigaBASIC.

START.ARC          My old A1000 DF0:S/STARTUP-SEQUENCE file.

STARTLE.ARC        If you like to use you Amiga for put home videos together,
                   this is a must have program. Reminiscent of Star Trek.

TIMSAV.ARC         Program that you call from your startup-sequence file to
                   automatically set the time on your Amiga 1000 even if your
                   Time Saver is turned OFF. Also sets the time without the
                   need for a warm reboot after starting from power-on as is
                   the case with current Time Saver firmware.

UTILM.ARC          A utility similar to the commercial package CLImate.
                   UtiliMaster comes with an icon and poorly written
                   user's guide.

UUENCO.ARC         UUDECODE and UUENCODE for the Amiga. A way to convert
                   binary to ascii to allow for sending via email. DeARC
                   the BUILD file, and then execute it. Everything will be
                   done for you. These utilities are larger than the
                   UU* files found elsewhere in this directory due to certain
                   enhancements added to their functionality.

VIRUSCK.ARC        Only a fool would say, "I don't need this program."


VSCREEN.ARC        Turn your Workbench into a huge virtual screen that you
                   can scroll up and down and left and right with your mouse.
                   Superb program. A must have!

VT100.ARC          The latest version of Wecker's "Hall of Fame" terminal
                   emulator (V2.8) with lot's of third party extras.

VT200.ARC          Leibow's latest VT200 terminal emulator (V1.1A).
                   This archive contains manual, fonts, and program.
                   FOR DEC INTERNAL USE ONLY!!

WBDEPTH.ARC        Change the number of planes used on your Workbench.

WBICONIFY.DOC      Turn any application screen into an icon.

WHAP.ARC           Jim Stevens superb TapCIS-like program for Compuserve
                   users. Outstanding user interface. This is V1.1D. Its
                   Shareware with a $39.95 tag on it. But Jim will provide
                   a non-Shareware version and updates to supporters.
                   Definitely worth it if you use Compuserve.

WIZ.ARC            A well done CLI utility.

WW.ARC             An excellent public domain word processor with nifty
                   outline feature and TOC generator. Complete with
                   user's guide.

ZOO.ARC            An ARC-like archiver. Very popular.

                   all HAN*.UUE files.

PREPSON.UUE        A nice print utility. Automatically paginates a file,
                   and adds a header at the top of each page containing
                   the date and time, page number, and filename. For
                   Epson compatible printers only. NOTE: This utility
                   does not wrap lines (too bad).

PRINT.UUE          A better printer utility.

SPOOL.UUE          A print spooler.

TCP1.UUE           TCP software for the Amiga. Hams on Packet - get these

TITLE.UUE          This allows you to place your own titles in the Workbench
                   titlebar. Instruction are in the first few lines -- so edit
                   them out before UUDECODEing.

USA1.UUE           Just in case you want to purchase an Amiga 2000 keyboard
                   for use with your Amiga 1000. You'll need this keymap.

STEP.ZOO           Speed up your disk drive head step rates considerably
                   with this fine utility. 1500 ticks is a good choice.
                   It also dramatically reduces drive-head chatter during
                   accesses. I run it out of my startup-sequence.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
