Short: Fish disk 0771 Uploader: Fish Disks Type: misc/fish Architecture: m68k-amigaos This is disk 771 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library. Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. AutoSave A small program which calls an ARexx script at regular inter- vals, controlled through a Workbench window. Although intended to provide an "AutoSave" function for applications, the script can do anything. Includes C source, which demonstrates simple use of GadTools and the timer device. Requires Kickstart 2.0 or later. Author: Michael Warner BBBBS Baud Bandit Bulletin Board System. Written entirely in ARexx using the commercial terminal program "BaudBandit". Features include up to 99 file libraries with extended filenotes, up to 99 fully threaded message conferences, number of users, files, messages, etc. are only limited by storage space, controlled file library and message conference access for users and sys- ops, interface to extra devices like CD-ROM and others, all treated as read only, complete Email with binary mail and multiple forwarding, user statistics including messages writ- ten, files uploaded or downloaded, time, etc, plus much more. Works under Amiga OS 1.3 and greater, tested through 3.0. This is version 5.7, an update to version 5.5 on disk 729. Includes complete ARexx source. Author: Richard Lee Stockton PubChange A commodity for AmigaDos 2.04. It isn't a public screen man- ager, but it is useful when used in conjunction with one. It is designed to make public screens easier to use. Whenever a new screen is brought to the front, this screen is examined. If it is a public screen, it is made into the default automat- ically without having to explicitly do it from within a public screen manager. Thus, the current default public screen is always the one which you have most recently brought to the front, and applications which use the default public screen will appear there. Version 1.0, binary only. Author: Steve Koren PKludge A mode promotion commodity for AmigaDos 3.0. It allows any mode to be promoted to any other mode. Mode promotion keyed from the screen name or title, and resizing and moving screens during mode promotion. It is useful to 1) promote all screens to a single scan rate to avoid re-syncing on multisync moni- tors during screen flipping, 2) use 800x600 or higher resolu- tions with some applications which don't know how to open those screens but can otherwise handle bigger screen sizes, 3) use PAL:Productivity 640x400 mode instead of DblNTSC:High Res Lace mode, since the productivity mode tends to be more visible on some Amiga 4000's. Version 1.0, binary only. Author: Steve Koren NiceMove Some different examples in C of MOUSEMOVE event handling during high CPU or DMA usage. Version 1.00, first release. Includes source and a sample program. Author: Thies Wellpott Sing Sing will read a text file (actually ANY file) and try to "sing" the characters in it using internal simple waveforms in 4 voices. Binary only. Author: Richard Lee Stockton Sound Sound sample player. Will play ANY file as sound. Understands IFF, stereo, and fibronicci compression. Can play direct from disk. Uses only 4k of chip ram. Effects include fade and grow. Works from CLI or WorkBench, all OS thru 3.0. Includes complete C source. Author: Richard Lee Stockton SourcOpt A little assembly language source optimizer. While most assem- blers have optimization, they optimize the compiled code. One disadvantage of this however, is when debugging code thru a disassembler or monitor, the code you see differs from that you have written because of the optimization. By optimizing the source first, you can eliminate some of these differences. Version 1.0, binary only, CLI usage only. Author: Alexander Fritsch
