Also, I fixed a couple of minor bugs and added the ability to use more than one option at a time. The news utility is primarily useful for multiuser GNO systems. It allows the system administrator to place text files containing important information in the /var/news directory. When the user wants to read these, he can simply type "news", and all unread news items will be displayed. Options exist for determining if there are any unread news items and for displaying the names of the unread items.

But you do need them if you intend on writing your own world shattering programs;) You can run the demo from the folder it comes in, or drag it to the desk top. But the demo needs to be with the included graphic file, and shape file. The Demo starts up a simple 320 mode desk top, with full NDA support.

It is smart in that it will erase a disk instead of formatting it if it has already been initialized. Erasing takes two seconds, while complete initialization takes about a minute. It will, though, allow you to force a format of a pre-formatted disk using the -f (Format) option. QInit's unique feature is that it can initialize a disk with Macintosh HFS formatting using the -m (Macintosh) option. This creates "Untitled" 800K HFS diskettes readable by any Macintosh, or with A2FX. It does not require any special "FST" to do this; it simply lays down HFS blocks after the standard GS/OS format (or erase). Public domain, courtesy of the Morgan Davis Group. Use ShrinkIt to unpack.

Written totally in MD-BASIC, a structured Applesoft language, the demo has nearly ten minutes running time of animated user interaction, extolling the virtues of MD-BASIC. (See the May 1990 A2-Central for a brief review on page 6.31 and also in the Catalog). Funny, enlightening, well worth downloading if your an Applesoft BASIC programmer. MD-BASIC allows you to write your Applesoft programs using your favorite word processor or text editor. Use long descriptive variable names, named subroutines (no line numbers), and IF-THEN-ELSE, DO-LOOP, REPEAT-UNTIL, and WHILE-WEND loops. Use all the comments you like (they appear in your source text, but not in your finished program), and don't worry about reserved words in variable names. Use the optimization feature to produce tight, compact Applesoft. Use #include to add pre-written modules from libraries to a program; use #define to create more readable programs that use defined constants and code macros. MD-BASIC translates your text file into standard Applesoft. Since MD-BASIC produces standard Applesoft code, its program are compatible with any enhancement Applesoft can use, such as ampersand packages and the Beagle Compiler. Programs created with MD-BASIC will run on any computer that runs Applesoft.

It was designed for use with TML Pascal so that it would not be neccessary to program with a proportional spaced font, or with Courier. This is an updated version of the one I posted earlier. There is only one change made that if you have already downloaded the earlier version, you can do yourself if you have a Font editor. Change the font size, from 8 to 9. When using the font, you will still want to specify a size of '8' for the font. This will not change the 'bitmap' of any displayed character, but instead will compress some of the whitespace around the characters to allow more characters per line. -RobertHess NOTE: Use ShrinkIt to unpack this font into the SYSTEM/FONTS directory of your boot volume.

Munsen EQUIPMENT: Apple II+, IIe, IIc, IIGS NEEDS: ShrinkIt to unpack OS: ProDOS 8 V1.4 or greater FILE TYPE: Reserved ----------------- Perspective View is a toolkit that allows you to create, edit, and combine three dimensional shapes into a graphics module. Graphics modules can be placed with in your BASIC or 6502 assembly language programs to create impressive graphics and visual displays. Perspective View (PV) places powerfull graphics capabilities at your fingertips. These abilities include: * Real-time animation in excess of 10 frames/second (@ 2.6 MHz) * Simultaneous animation of up to 15 shapes * True 3-D perspective * Automatic 'edge-clipping' * Extended color dithering (16 colors on standard HiRes) * Multiple draw modes (color, B&W fine line, non-destructive) * Fully graphic Shape editor and viewer Additional features: * Executes on standard 64K or better Apple // computers * Non-Copy protected ProDOS version * Mouse and Joystick support during editing * Full Hard disk support To test the Perspective View toolkit for yourself, perform the following operations: 1. Get an initilized blank disk. 2. Set the volume name of the disk to "PERSPECTIVE". (optional) 3. If the disk is to be bootable, copy PRODOS (P8/vers 1.4 or later) to your blank disk. 4. Unpack all of the PV files to your disk using ShrinkIt. 5. If you are using a //gs, create a folder (subdirectory) called "ICONS". Move the file "PV.ICONS" into the folder. 6. You may wish to create a folder called "PV.3D.SHAPES", and move all of the files that are suffixed with ".3DS" into it. (optional) 7. Execute the file PV.SYSTEM to start Perspective View. If PV.SYSTEM is the first system program on your disk, then you may run PV by 'booting' the disk during power-on. Perspective View is Shareware. When you send in the $20 Shareware fee, you will be sent a nice laser printed manual. The PV manual provides a complete description of the toolkit operation. All aspects of creating, editing, and animating 3-D shapes are covered in detail. Additionally, step-by-step programming exeamples show how to create your own BASIC and assembly language programs with 3-D graphics. This file is packed with ShrinkIt.

(You provide the shape table data, and this program will do the work of building the shape tables.) This isn't exactly just another shape table generator. Whenever you make a shape table, you start with graph paper, right? Then you draw a bunch of arrows to decide how to make the shape definition. Then you use a shape table editor and move a cursor around following all the vectors you've drawn already. This program lets you put all the vectors in data and then creates a shape table (with as many shapes as you want) from the data. The program will create the shape table & its index, allow you to look at and manipulate the shapes, save the table if you want it saved, and tell you what to POKE for the shape table pointer. It also has a lot of little niceties that make the program more enjoyable to use. It includes all the necessary documentation (in PRINT and REM statements) as well as a sample shape table in data. There is a small shareware fee of $5.

Dialog Maker will allow you to create a dialog window with controls and reshape & reposition the window and the controls. When you have it the way you want, it will write out a text file to disk containing the necessary template information in Merlin 16 style for inclusion in your source code. You may also save work in progress (in Dialog Maker format) to resume at a later date. Merlin 16+ source code is included in the upload. Things it won't do: It won't do windows (seriously, I believe regular windows are easy enough to make that a program of this type would be of dubious value). If you want to create a non-dialog window with controls, go ahead and use this program and just adjust the window's RECT later. It won't do menus (for the same reason). It won't handle more than one window at a time. It won't do 320 mode (which I think looks ridiculuous). It doesn't support editting a control's details; just delete it and make another. It won't do color; I had to leave something for you, didn't I? ----------------------------- Use ACU to unpack this file.

With it, a programmer can convert any Music Studio song file to a "Sequence" file in a format that can be played directly by the IIgs Note Sequencer tool set under interrupt control. This lets a program start a complex multi-instrument musical piece, then go off and do whatever the program has to do while the music plays in the background. Other features include loading and playing sequence files, playing digitized sound files, a file type changer, and file utilities such as delete, copy, and rename. Full documentation and sequence file format are included. This program is offered as "ShareWare with a BONUS". Source code is available.

Peckham EQUIPMENT: Apple IIGS NEEDS: APW OS: GS/OS FILE TYPE: ACU ----------------- NOTE: This is Version 2.2 of my execution profiler. This has corrected documentation and enhanced timing statistics. This makes Version 2.1 obsolete. ----------------- This is an execution profiler for APW C or assembler. This is a shareware. The source can be obtained by writing the author. The purpose of an execution profiler is to determine where a program is spending the most time so that optimizations can be performed on those areas that will yield the most benefit. With the profile listing and a link map from the linker, the 'hot-spots' in the code are easily recognized. Revision history: The difference between v1.0 and v1.1 is that v1.1 supports assembler programs. Along with that support, installProfile now takes the program's starting address as an input parameter. The output of v2.0 correlates the timing statistics to the link map. installProfile now takes an additional parameter which is the name of the program. Version 2.1 is v2.0 with assembler support.

Subj: TICK - APW File Date Comparison Date: April 23, 1989 From: Greg Queen File: TICK.ACU (13286 bytes) DL time (28800 baud): < 1 minute Download count: 27 Uploaded on: System AUTHOR: Greg Queen EQUIPMENT: Apple II-GS NEEDS: APW (or compatible) shell, ACU to unpack OS: GS/OS FILE TYPE: ACU TICK is an APW (or compatible) shell utility for comparing the dates of a group of files against a "base file". TICK uses only GS/OS calls and will therefore be compatible with any file system that supports file modification dates and has an FST for use with GS/OS. TICK supports both the '=' and '?' forms of APW wildcarding. TICK can be used to automate the process of regenerating an entity after a sequence of changes to the component parts of the entity. By appropriately constructing an EXECUTE file, only those operations that are necessitated by the change(s) are done. TICK can be thought of as an "element" of a MAKE system. The advantage of a standalone utility over an automated MAKE system is that there is no pre-conceived notion of what needs to (or can) be done as the result of any particular dependency; i.e., you have total control of what action to take when a file is older or newer than another file. The disadvantage of a standalone utility over an automated MAKE system is that you, the programer, have to generate all of the commands yourself (no automation) in an EXECUTE file. Comments are solicited and will be welcomed with open arms. I place no constraints whatsoever on the use, distribution, modification, or whatever of TICK.

Peckham EQUIPMENT: IIgs NEEDS: APW shell OS: ProDOS 16 or GS/OS FILETYPE: ACU Make is patterned after the Unix program by the same name. A great assist for developing large programs whether in C or assembler. The source is also available from the author. Additionally, the source for 'Unix-like' time functions is available. --------------------------------------------------------------- MAKE.DOC 'Make' is a much simplified version of the make utility on UNIX. 'Make' takes a file of dependencies (a 'makefile') and decides what commands have to be executed to bring the files up to date. These commands are either written directly to the file EXECMAKE or written to standard output. First, 'make' reads all of the MAKEFILE. It then proceeds through all of the file name arguments, 'making' each one in turn. A file is remade if it is out of date with respect to the files it depends on or if the file is non-existent. Dependencies are processed in a 'tree' fashion, so that the lowest-order files are remade first. An example makefile: # this line is a comment PROGRAM PROGRAM.ROOT @LINK 2/START PROGRAM 2/STACK2K KEEP=PROGRAM @COPY -C PROGRAM /PROG.DISK PROGRAM.ROOT PROGRAM.C PROGRAM.H STDIO.H @COMPILE PROGRAM.C KEEP=PROGRAM In the above example, 'PROGRAM' is a dependent file. It is dependent on PROGRAM.ROOT. PROGRAM.ROOT is dependent on PROGRAM.C, PROGRAM.H and STDIO.H. If the following command is issued at the shell prompt: # make then make will check to see if any of PROGRAM.C, PROGRAM.H or STDIO.H has a newer date and time than PROGRAM.ROOT. If so, then the compile instruction is written to EXECMAKE, then the link instruction followed by the copy command. If only PROGRAM.ROOT is newer than 'PROGRAM', then only the link and copy steps would be written to EXECMAKE. There are two example make files on the disk. I use each when I work on make. The file MAKEFILE, handles all the source files to make 'MAKE.'. I use the file BACKUP, when I use my RAM disk for development. BACKUP automatically backs up any files that have changed.

See the book "The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs", MIT Press, 1982, authors: Albelson and Sussman for details of the language. There is a brief description of the language and 3 (I think 3) sample programs.
