Installation

Simply  boot  your  normal  Amiga  system  up,  then  extract the archive to
anywhere; ramdisk, blank floppy disk or harddisk.

LHA x EasyCalc2.lha DEST:  (Where DEST: is a directory)

The above line will extract the archive.

Any problems then E-mail me at awoods@enigmade.demon.co.uk

Required Libraries

The  following  are  essential  to  the  running of EasyCalc 2.0, and should
already  be  available  in  your  LIBS:   assignment  (or in the EasyCalc2.0
drawer):

  commodities.library
  icon.library
  iffparse.library
  mathieeedoubbas.library
  mathieeedoubtrans.library
  mathtrans.library
  reqtools.library           (<--- This is copyright Nico François)
                              

This  one  is  standard on WB3.0+, and a compatible version is supplied with
EasyCalc  2.0  for  WB2.0  systems.   This  file  is  required  to  view the
AmigaGuide®  documentation  that  comes with EasyCalc 2.0.  However EasyCalc
2.0 will work without it:

  amigaguide.library


Another  optional  library that is needed to provide the Arexx facilities of
EasyCalc  2.0.   Again, EasyCalc 2.0 will run without it, but at the expense
of the Arexx interface:

  rexxsyslib.library

What's On The Disk?

EasyRexx (dir)
  Bounce.erex                      SetWidth.erex

A  couple  of  example  Arexx  scripts  (one  useful,  one not).  Can be ran
straight from EasyCalc 2.0 if RexxMast is running.


Examples (dir)
  EXAMPLE.calc                     FamilyBudget.calc
  OldEasyCalc.calc                 STRINGS.calc

Some  example files to look at.  Nothing very fancy, sorry, but EasyCalc 2.0
is late enough, and space is tight.


ArexxCommands.guide

Describes  the  ArexxCommand  set.  If you know Arexx already this should be
easy enough to follow, otherwise you will find it hard going.


easycalc.guide

AmigaGuide® file containing main documentation for the program.


EasyCalc2.0

The EasyCalc Plus program itself.

Credits

As  with  all  my  software,  I  owe a lot to many unsung people out there,
sadly, I've lost my list of credits that I have slowly been building.

However I can mention a couple of people:

Nico  Francois  for  the  superb  ReqTools.library and the tiny ppMore text
viewer.

Joanna  Taylor,  my partner for putting up with all the late nights (oo-er)
of programming without too many complaints.

CBM Amiga, for the best computer and the best operating system ever.

Kew=II Software, for all their help over the years.

If you feel you should join this list, then write to me explaining why, and
I'll add you to this roll of honour.

Advertisment Break

DiskManager 4.0

Disk  cataloger  and organiser.  Allows those elusive programs on Utilities
disk  16  to be found quickly.  Keeps track of disk space as well as files,
so  you can find space for that new BBS download.  Amiga Shopper (Britain's
premier  serious  magazine)  gave  this  9/10 and said "anyone with a large
collection  of floppies should have DiskManager".  This is a major upgrade,
see why dozens of users have registered.

Features:

· Search for free disk space.  DiskManagerIII allows you to enter an amount
of disk space needed (for that new piece of software) then it finds all the
disks with space available.

· Complex  file  searches  and  tagging.   DiskManagerIII  makes full use of
AmigaDOS wildcards to limit searches, deletes etc to certain files.

· Now needs WB2 to run.

· DiskManager4.0  has lots of special features, such as the ability to skip
.info  (icon)  files  and  Amiga  system directories like S and DEVS.  This
prevents the database being cluttered with repeated files.

· A  full  disk label generator is attached to the database.  You just pick
the  disk  and  files  for the label and DiskManagerIII prints off a custom
label.

· DiskManager4.0  allows  comments  to be attached to disks.  Keep track of
that disk with the dodgy sector!

· When  adding  a  disk to the database, DiskManager4.0 will recognise many
common  file  formats  and  store  the  file type in the database.  No more
wondering what xyz.dat is now!

· Lists  of  directories and files that should be skipped from the database
are supported.

COST: £10
