CONTENTS OF March/April 1994 FreshFish CDROM This file contains some overview information about the contents of the CD-ROM, followed by a concatenation of a bunch of individual Contents files on the CD-ROM. Note that not all the material on the CD-ROM appears in a Contents file somewhere, so the list of programs found in this file is only a subset of what is actually on the CD-ROM. In particular, the only detailed contents listed here are for material that is "New" with this CD-ROM. ----------------------- STRUCTURE OF THE CD-ROM ----------------------- The 636 Mb on the CD-ROM is divided into roughly three sections: (1) New material, which includes the material from the new unreleased floppy disks as well as material which does not appear in the floppy distribution, (2) useful utilities that can be used directly off the CD-ROM if desired, thus freeing up the corresponding amount of hard disk space, and (3) older material from previous released floppy disks or CD-ROM's. The portion of the disk dedicated to new material that I've not previously published on a CD-ROM or floppy disk is 59 Mb, broken down as follows: 8 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of disks 951-975 20 Mb Unarchived (ready-to-run) contents of disks 951-975 9 Mb Archived "new material" not in floppy distribution 22 Mb Unarchived "new material" not in floppy distribution The portion of the disk dedicated to a bunch of useful tools like GNU utilities, TeX with lots of fonts, and other interesting software that will be updated for each FreshFish CD-ROM, is 284 Mb, broken down as follows: 2 Mb Content lists of floppy disks 1-971. 6 Mb Content lists (file and CRC lists) of previous CD-ROM's. 4 Mb CD-ROM administration files, documentation, etc. 4 Mb Reviews of Amiga software and hardware 4 Mb Full BSD source for supplied BSD executables. 4 Mb AmigaGuide versions of GNU "info" files. 6 Mb CBM header files, libraries, and developer tools. 3 Mb Binary executables, libraries, and other "runtime" things. 27 Mb Misc useful tools, libraries, etc. 33 Mb PasTeX source, fonts, binaries, etc. 39 Mb GNU binaries, libraries, and other "runtime" things. 152 Mb Full GNU source for supplied GNU executables. The portion of the disk dedicated to old material is 293 Mb, broken down as follows: 12 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of material from Oct FreshFish CD-ROM that was not in floppy distribution. 22 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of material from Dec FreshFish CD-ROM that was not in floppy distribution. 27 Mb Unarchived contents of material from Oct FreshFish CD-ROM that was not included in the floppy distribution. 57 Mb Unarchived contents of material from Dec FreshFish CD-ROM that was not included in the floppy distribution. 175 Mb Archived (BBS ready) contents of floppy disks 600-975. -------- GNU CODE -------- Here are the current GNU distributions which are included in both source and binary form. In most cases, they are the very latest distributions ftp'd directly from the FSF machines and compiled with the version of gcc included on this CD-ROM. I have personally compiled all of the GNU binaries supplied on this CD-ROM, to verify that the compiler is solid and that the binaries are in fact recreatable from the supplied source code. bc-1.02 find-3.8 grep-2.0 rcs-5.6.0.1 binutils-1.8.x flex-2.4.6 groff-1.09 sed-2.03 bison-1.22 gas-1.38 gzip-1.2.4 shellutils-1.9.4 cpio-2.3 gawk-2.15.4 indent-1.9.1 tar-1.11.2 dc-0.2 gcc-2.3.3 ispell-4.0 termcap-1.2 diffutils-2.6 gcc-2.5.8 libg++-2.5.3 texinfo-3.1 doschk-1.1 gdb-4.12 m4-1.1 textutils-1.9 emacs-18.59 gdbm-1.7.1 make-3.70 uuencode-1.0 f2c-1993.04.28 ghostscript-2.6.1 patch-2.1 fileutils-3.9 gmp-1.3.2 perl-4.036 Here is an "ls -C" of the GNU binary directory which can be added to your path to make these utilities usable directly off the CD-ROM, once it is mounted: [ diff3 geqn info pathchk texi2dvi addftinfo dir gindxbib install pfbtops texindex afmtodit dirname glookbib ispell pr tfmtodit ar doschk gneqn ixconfig printenv touch as du gnroff ixtrace printf tr awk echo gperf join protoize true basename egrep gpic ksh ps2ascii unexpand bc emacs grefer ld ps2epsi uniq bdftops env grep lkbib psbb unprotoize bison etags grodvi ln ranlib uudecode c++ expand groff locate rcs uuencode cat expr grog logname rcsdiff v chgrp f2c grops look rcsmerge vdir chmod false grotty ls rlog wc chown fgrep gs m4 rm who ci find gsbj make rmdir whoami cksum flex gsdj makeinfo sdiff xargs cmp flex++ gslj merge sed yes co fold gslp mkdir sh zcat comm font2c gsnd mkfifo size zcmp cp g++ gsoelim mknod sleep zdiff cpio gawk gtbl mt sort zforce csplit gcc gtroff mv split zgrep cut gcc-2.3.3 gunzip nice strip zmore d gcc-2.5.8 gzexe nl sum znew date gccv gzip nm tac dc gccv-2.3.3 head nroff tail dd gccv-2.5.8 id od tar df gdb ident paste tee diff genclass indent patch test ---------------------- Other Useful Utilities ---------------------- Here is an "ls -C" of the Useful/Sys/c binary directory which can be added to your path to make these utilities usable directly off the CD-ROM, once it is mounted: A-Kwic ExpungeXRef LoadLibrary Play Vim lha AD2HT Flush LoadXRef PowerSnap WDisplay look ARTM IView MKProto RSys XIcon mg AZap Installer MakeAnim7 SD Xoper tapemon AmigaGuide LHArc MuchMore SnoopDos brik vt Degrader LHWarp NewZAP SuperDuper bsplit zoo DeviceLock Less PackIt SysInfo chksum DiskSalv LoadDB PerfMeter Viewtek flushlibs -------------------------------- Contents of Floppy Disks 600-975 -------------------------------- I've elected to use the BBS ready form of the contents of disks 600-975 to fill the remaining space on the CD-ROM, after everything else was included. For each floppy disk, there is a separate archive of each item listed in the floppy disk contents file, as well as an archive for the floppy disk "overhead" files and a CRC list of the entire disk contents. There is also a beta release of "PufferFish", a utility by Peter Janes, which can be used to recreate master floppy disks from the archives and CRC lists, for further duplication and distribution. ------------------------- New/AmigaLibDisks/Disk951 ------------------------- IconMiser Intercepts attempts by programs to create icons and substi- tutes images or icons you prefer in their place.

This is not a recorder, mouse and keyboard events are generated in real time and so the software adapts itself to changes at a particular execution. Includes example programs and source in C and assembly. Author: Kamran Karimi MUI_dev An object oriented system to create and maintain graphical user interfaces. From a programmer's point of view, using MUI saves a lot of time and makes life much easier. Think- ing about complicated terms like window resizing or font sensitivity is simply not neccesary.

The aim of the game is to spread your civilization through the 26 earth-like planets of the universe map and to defend it from other civilizations by building weapons and war ships. Unfortunately - like all half-realistic simulations and strategy games - Colonial Conquest will reward primitive destructive behavior and colonial instincts without leaving much room for cooperative actions and peaceful living.

Author: Kai Hofmann VCLI This is Version 7.04 of Voice Command Line Interface (VCLI). VCLI will execute CLI commands, ARexx commands, or ARexx scripts by voice command. VCLI allows you to launch multiple applications or control any program with an ARexx capability entirely by spoken voice command. VCLI is multitasking and will run in the background, listening for your voice command even while other pro- grams may be running. VCLI also has its own ARexx port so that internal functions and options can be controlled by ARexx command. This new version fixes a few bugs, plugs a memory leak, improves gadget functions by pro- viding keyboard alternatives, and increases the sensi- tivity of the voice.library recognition functions so that you don't always have to speak so loudly. Documen- tation is provided for both AmigaGuide and Multiview. This is the fastest and most accurate version of VCLI yet, and it fully supports DSS 8, Perfect Sound 3, Sound Magic (Sound Master) and many generic audio digitizers. This is an update to VCLI version 7.0 on disk 898. Binary only. Author: Richard Horne ------------- New/util/pack ------------- PackIt A CLI only PowerPacker data file cruncher/decruncher.
