Below is a listing of the significant directories and their contents. ABackup A very powerful backup utility that may be used both for hard disk backup and for file archiving. Has a full Intuition interface, a "batch" mode, can save/load file selection, handle HD floppies, use any external compression program, etc... Includes both English and French versions. Version 2.43, an update from version 2.40 on disk 838. Shareware, binary only. Author: Denis Gounelle. DImpWin A GUI interface for Disk-Imploder (included) by A.J. Brouwer. DImp is one of the most efficient disk archivers available for the Amiga. It offers 7 different levels of compression, the ability to create self-extracting archives, MULTIPLE CYLINDER RANGES, ability to work with any floppy compatible device (such as RAD: & FMS disks) and it can also add a text- file to the archive that will be displayed during extraction. Via the GUI interface, DImp-Win will invoke DImp and tell it what to do. DImp-Win version 1.0, DImp version 2.27. Requires AmigaOS 2.04+. Binary only. Author: Colin Bell (DImp-Win) and A.J. Brouwer (DImp) Planetarium An astronomy program which displays and animates the planets of the solar system at specific times.

Author: Jim Schwartz StatRam Stat-RAM or 'SD0:' is a very fast recoverable ram drive that takes advantage of FFS under WB2 or FFS International under WB2.1 or 3. This work is based on ASDG's 'VD0:'. ASDG-RAM has been reliable for many years since it was placed in the PD. However it has always been slow because it uses OFS, or old file system. On an accelerated machines, SD0: is up to 7 times faster, and averages 5 times faster than the original VD0:. It's also 4 to 5 times faster than RRD. It survives the deepest re-boot, even the ColdReboot of rekicking a KS file. Version 1.5, binary only. Author: Richard Waspe TrashIcon A WorkBench 2.x application icon to delete files. Puts an icon at a possibly user defined position on the WorkBench screen, that deletes all files that are dragged onto it. This is version 1.4, an update to version 1.2 on disk number 839. Binary only. Author: Mark McPherson UnivConq A strategy game where two human players battle for control of the universe.

Status information is contin- ually updated to allow the player to concentrate on strategy, not statistics. Includes digitized pictures and sound. Version 1.08. Compatible with WB 1.3 & 2.x. Binary only. Author: Randy Wing
