It apparently fixes some minor bugs. See ] [ recent posts in comp.sys.amiga.misc for more information. -Dan ] Disks 591-600 were released about three weeks ago. Disks 601-610 were just released this weekend (2/22). All shipping of disks 601-610 to those that have preordered disks should be complete by 2/24/92. Note that you can get a copy of the catalog (2 disks) of the complete library contents by sending $3 for disks, postage, and mailer to: Fred Fish Catalog Disk Requests 1835 East Belmont Drive Tempe, Arizona 85284 USA Thanks to all who submitted new and interesting material. If you submitted something in the past and it has not yet appeared in the library, please feel free to resubmit it, particularly if it was several months ago. I sometimes hesitate to include material submitted more than about six months ago because of some vague feeling that as soon as I include version 1.01 submitted many months ago, I'll see version 5.23 posted on usenet. For those wishing to submit material for possible inclusion in the library, here are a few simple guidelines that will make my job of organizing the material MUCH easier and GREATLY increase your chances of having the material accepted for inclusion: 1. Don't submit bootable disks or disks with any other sort of proprietary material included, since I then have to go examine each file to decide if it is distributable or not, and if not, what effect removing it might have. 2. Organize the distribution in a manner similar to my disks. I.E, place all files related to a particular submission under a single directory on the disk. If there is more than one submission per disk, it's ok to to place each submission in it's own directory. 3. Try to write a simple entry for my "Contents" listing that summarizes your submission. It should be about 3-10 lines, and include the current version number, the version and disk number of the most recent version (if any) that was last included in the library, whether or not source is included, and an "Author" list. 4. Ensure that your submission will run correctly from it's subdirectory and if necessary, supply a script runnable from workbench (via :c/xicon) that makes all necessary assigns, copies fonts and libraries, etc. 5. Send your submission in a sturdy envelope with sufficient padding. Thanks!!! ====================================================================== CONTENTS OF DISK 591 -------------------- Flyspeck A very tiny font, which is more of a gimmick than a useful font.

The command language of RIM is fair- ly close to SQL and documents for it are included. Also sup- ports GnuPlot to provide flexible plotting. A minimum of 2Mb of memory is recommended, of which 750K must be contiguous. Because the full distribution would not fit on a single disk, it has been split onto two disks, with disk 593 containing the executable and needed "keypad" command files, and disk 594 containing the source and documentation.
