"WB2 BEST OF FISH" COLLECTION  The following disks are the result of a severe culling of the Fish Disks, which often have numerous updates, obscure text files, many programming source files, etc, of little use to the average user. Leon Jarvis has worked long and hard to reduce the collection to the most useful and interesting items, to make the Fish Collection easier to digest, and less of a problem to hunt through for that particular program. However, the full Fish Collection is always available from us if there is anything omitted which you might find useful. This list is constantly being updated by Leon, so keep updating your catalogue. Disks 1 - 7 cover the Fish disks from 1 - 100, disks 8 - 13 cover the Fish disks from 101 - 150 (amazing how it squeezes down), and disks 14 - 35 cover them from 151 - 210, and 15 - 40 cover from 211 - 236 and so on.  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All of These disks require Workbench 2.0 These WB2 BEST OF FISH DISKS Files have been updated as of December 1993:  WB2 BEST OF FISH 01 Annotate A text editor written for ADos 2.0 and up.

Author: Doug Bakewell  ************ PLEASE NOTE ************ THE WB2 BEST OF FISH DISKS NOW NUMBER 1 to 12, covering Fish 1 - 930.  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF THINGS DON'T WORK... Just a word to everyone that uses any public domain collections. Or If you are new to the Amiga and you are having problems and you are getting a requester saying something like: "please insert volume Best_of_fish" and you know that you just put your disk in the drive then more than likely you have removed a file from your Boot disk and the program cannot find it. Most of the time I have found the file to be Xicon that is missing from the Boot Disk,Also The Arp.Library from the Libs Directory. Use a Copy OF Your Original Workbench - This Should Stop Any Problems.  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
