We ship same or next day by first class mail, or by priority mail on shipments weighing more than 11 ounces. 3]NEW We have added 30 disks to the collection this month: Fish 491 to 500, TBAG 49 to 54, SACC 50 to 54, and new compilations from George Thompson Services in England. The Fish, TBAG and SACC additions are cataloged ahead in this article. There are three multi-disk compilations from George Thompson Services in the U.K. These collections are in the main amassed from other available disks but have the advantage of categorizing topics of interest. These three sets are available only as sets, since some programs call files from other disks in a given set. 1487 - 1488 - 1489 - Simulation games (counts as three disks) Metro, King, Nuke, Imperium Romanum, SeaLance, Truckin', DC10 and Lord of Conquest. 1490 - 1491 - Word games (counts as two disks) Reader, Word Puzzle, Wordhai, WordGame, Cross, CWP, Scrazzle and Disearch. 1492 - 1493 - 1494 - 1495 - Mandelbrots and Fractals (counts as four disks) CPlot, SMan, MandelPAUG, PolySys, CPM, ZPlot, FractalLab, MandAnim, Fractals, MandelBlitz, PolySysExamples, Julia, FCS, MandelMountains. 3]THE DEAL JUMPDISK offers PD/SHAREWARE disks for a basic $3.00 each. Prices go lower for more disks in a specific order: 1 to 4 disks are $3.00 each, 5 to 9 disks are $2.75 each, and 10 or more disks $2.50 each. You may send an order by mail. Personal check is acceptable. See the separate catalog file, which you may print to simplify placing an order. But don't hesitate to simply write out your order, to avoid printing and mailing the increasingly longer order sheet. You may also telephone us your order, if you have a street address rather than post office box, and we will ship your order by UPS COD the next business day. There is a $3.75 additional charge per COD order. COD orders may be paid by personal check. For $3, you may order the two-disk PDLIST set, which contains easily accessible text files that tell what's on the PD disks we have. 3]THE USUAL INFORMATION and HOW TO ORDER The prices given are TOTALS. There are no added-on costs except as specifically noted. You DO NOT have to be a JUMPDISK subscriber to take advantage of the offer. 1. Send orders to: JUMPDISK PD Offer 1493 Mt. View Ave. Chico, CA 95926 (U.S.A.) 2. Payment must be made by check or money order in U.S. funds. Canadians may write "U.S. funds" beside the amount, and the check will acceptable to our U.S. bank. 3. Orders from countries other than the U.S. or Canada must be paid either by international money order, or by check in U.S. dollars drawn on a bank which has a U.S. branch whose name and address are on the face of the check. That's the bank's rule, not ours. 4. California residents must pay 6 percent sales tax. 5. The price per disk (in U.S. funds) also applies to orders sent to Canada, but residents of countries other than the U.S. and Canada must add $1.00 per disk ordered to cover airmail shipment. 6. JUMPDISK reserves the right to refund all or part of a payment, should an ordered disk not be available for any reason. In the case of partial refunds, JUMPDISK reserves the right to refund in the form of its own check in U.S. funds. 7. Telephone calls are accepted for UPS COD orders. No collect calls. 8. Disks are provided with absolutely no warranty. However, we urge you to return flawed disks for replacement without charge. 9. Disks are provided without documentation except that on the disk itself. We cannot provide guidance on how specific activities work on these disks. We haven't even tried some of them except to verify contents. For our part, we promise to make a sincere effort to ship your order the day it is received, so you should be able to obtain desired disks within about one week or 10 days after you mail your order. If you have already ordered PD disks from us, you know we mean this. If you have no printer or can more easily write your own order, please do the following: To order, type or legibly print your name, address, city, state, ZIP (or other postal code) on a sheet of paper. On the same side of the paper, carefully print the code number of every disk you wish by collection. Multiply the number of disks you want by the price per. Remember the PDLIST disk set is only $3. And also remember that multi-disk sets are charged for each disk in the set. Write the total on the sheet. Include payment in the same envelope with the sheet bearing order information. Make check payable to JUMPDISK. 3]FISH 491 bBaseII - A simple database program using an intuition interface. Stores, sorts, and searches for information. Limited to 9 fields in each record.

They include code allowing the spreadsheet to be treated as a series of "pages" so that a cell has a row, column, and (optionally) page, and ranges can be in depth along pages as well as along rows or columns. The mapping is flexible enough so that it can be used to facilitate computing traces of matrices if desired, as well as for more conventional use.

Author: Stefan Sticht. ChangeColors - A new palette tool to change the colors of the workbench or any other public screen.

This provides a method of opening CON: and RAW: windows on screens other than the WorkBench, for example. Includes source. Author: Davide Cervone. wIconify - A program, and number of companion utilities, that allow you to iconify windows on any screen, including custom screens. Iconified windows become small icons on the bottom of the screen, and they can be opened again by double-clicking them.
