Hi there!  The latest fishdisks are being uploaded to ux1 even as we
speak.  Following my signature is a listing of the contents of these disks.
(Note: This is a recording.  If there are only a few disks listed, it's
probably because this is being done to replace a [some] bad disk[s])

P.S. If you were on the Fishdisks mailing list, you'd already know this.
Send mail to schwager@cs.uiuc.edu to get put onto the list.

		these computers and a monitor capable of receiving its input
		through composite video, no modifications are required to the
		Amiga.  The PBMPlus library of graphics manipulation routines
		is required to make use of this program, as well as a standard
		IFF viewer such as Mostra.  A sample test image is included.
		This is version 1.0, binary only.

IFSLab		An Iterated Function System fractal generator.  This one
		focuses on the "Collage Theorem".  It permits you to draw an
		approximate outline of the planned fractal, then create the
		collage directly, jigsaw-puzzle style, from actual reduced

		the mouse.  The attractors of the resultant IFS codes can be
		rendered in black and white or in grayscale, and saved to IFF
		files.  Version 1.0, includes source in C.

		other programs take up.  Based on a program called Memeter,
		which broke under Kickstart 2.0.  Requires Kickstart 2.0 or

		(e.g. Italics), single or double sided printing, multiple
		copies, and free layout.  Two fonts are available.  DeskJet
		RAM cartridge required.  Version 2.7, shareware, binary only.

		friendly mouse blanking, mouse acceleration/threshold, "Pop-
		CLI", click-to-front/back, "SunMouse", "NoClick", "WildStar",

SCRAM500	The first of a series of Public Domain "KitWare" hardware
		projects for the Amiga.  On this disk you will find the design
		for an 8Meg RAM and SCSI controller for the Amiga 500 (SCsi
		RAM for the 500 = SCRAM 500).  You will also find an order
		form to obtain PCB, chips and whatever you need to build one.
		The SCRAM 500 is easy to build, cheap and should be useful to
		a lot of people.  Included in this distribution is complete
		documentation on how to assemble a SCRAM 500, notes for Amiga
		1000 owners, a description of the custom chips, design notes,
		troubleshooting guide, user's manual, bill of materials, 12
		HPGL plot files for schematics and PCB layout, hard drive
		partitioning software, a mountable device driver, a ROMable
		driver, and more!

		useful in combination with Enforcer.  Output can go to either
		the serial or parallel port.  Includes a new MungList program
		that examines used memory areas for MungWall tag info, and
		outputs a list of who owns the various pieces of allocated
		memory, their sizes, etc.  Can even identify the owner of the
		memory by task name.  This is version 37.52, an update to

		feature is that it uses a new IFF format for it's archive
		files.  Version 1.1, binary only.
