Assorted Progs
Various
This disk contains three very different programs. Stuart Taylor sent in
'TABMASTER' which is a guitar program which if you enter a musical note,
will tell you where to play it on the guitar. It can be set so that the
note is shown on any of the 6 strings. John Kinsella gives us 'HECTIC
II ' which is an addictive puzzle game for 1 or 2 players. The playing
screen is a grid containing red and green numbers, 1 player can only
move horizontally, the other vertically. If you click on a green
square, the number is added to your score, a red square deducts from the
score. It's hard to explain, but it's a great game! Last but not
least, My Dairy is presented by David Meager, age 13. It's a well
presented program which you use to make notes as you would in a diary.
This is a good VFM (Value For Money) disk.

print out the results. The output is very professional. the program is
easy to use and would be useful to anyone who needs decent diagrams of
this type.
GPD189
Gaters Gallery
Gator
This is a tutorial disk for DPaint. Gator is German and so the disk is
bilingual. The English is very good and although quaint in places
presents no problems. The tutorial uses DPaint 3, mainly because v4 was
bugged when it was produced. Gator deals mainly with the creation of
logos for demos, but I am sure that there are verry many handy hints on
the disk which will be of great use to all potential artists. The
picture screens are .iff, so can be loaded into Dpaint and played around
with. This disk comes highly recommended by Peter Paton, a Totally Amos
member, who sent it into us.
GPD213
Guitar Tuner Utility
Lee Gillett
Another guitar utility to add to your collection, this program helps you
to tune up your guitar properly with on screen diagrams and sounds.
Very stylishly presented by Lee. This is shareware, the registration is
a mere 2 quid and for that you will get a voucher which will give you 2
quid off the professional guitar video produced by Lee. Full details
are available in the ads on this disk. Lee sent us a copy of his video
and it was dutifully tried out by our 10 year old who has a small
knowledge of guitar playing and she found it extremly useful. All the
chord for the song are shown before you start a song then you can play
along with the video as it shows each chord change and the song is sung.
The disk is well recommended, the video also, although you will have to
send to Lee for that!

ages! It's an Ansi writer. If you do not know what this is, it is a

some of which have been disables in this version, but there are plenty

it will! Have all the fun of being the next Phil Collins without the

This is a very classy looking word processor/text editor, which is very
easy to use. The options are called from the top menu bar with icons
for the most often used functions. You can change the text style,
define macros, use word wrap and even count the words in your document,
plus many more features. VERY good value for money.
GPD109
Text Plus
This is a word processor with many features including justify, centre,
mark block, etc etc. The program is Shareware as the annoying requester
keeps on reminding you! Useful program if you need to write and print
letters or a book, but cannot afford a full-price processor.

Prototyper V1.1
Derek Pell
Prototyper is an electronic CAD tool specially designed for defining
'Vero' strip board layouts similar to those found in electronic
magazines. Protyper is icon and menu driven making it very easy to use.
The program uses a library of component packages which are pasted on a
section of vero board of 38 matrix hole down and 63 across maximum. The
program also offers several powerful editing features that pen, paper
and rubber could never compete with, making it an essential tool for any
Amiga owner who dabbles in electronics. This is a Private-ware program.
The full version is available from the author, who is also the author of
Electro CAD. Full details on disc. (Thanks to Derek for providing the
description for this program)

This is a PD version of a really great sound sample editor. It does
everything you'd find in a full priced package, and it's really easy to
use. You can mess about with sounds to your heart's content, changing
the octave, cutting bits out, fading in and out, brightening the sample,
making it metallic, and lots more besides. It does the whole job bar

Assorted Progs
Various
This disk contains three very different programs. Stuart Taylor sent in
'TABMASTER' which is a guitar program which if you enter a musical note,
will tell you where to play it on the guitar. It can be set so that the
note is shown on any of the 6 strings. John Kinsella gives us 'HECTIC
II ' which is an addictive puzzle game for 1 or 2 players. The playing
screen is a grid containing red and green numbers, 1 player can only
move horizontally, the other vertically. If you click on a green
square, the number is added to your score, a red square deducts from the
score. It's hard to explain, but it's a great game! Last but not
least, My Dairy is presented by David Meager, age 13. It's a well
presented program which you use to make notes as you would in a diary.
This is a good VFM (Value For Money) disk.
GPD181
AddressPrint V3
Paul Lathwell
This program will run on 1/2 meg machines, but only just, but if you are
reading this, you must have 1 meg anyway! This ute will take in
addresses from a database and use the information to print address
la
bels. There is a second version on the disk which is specifically for
Star printers.
GPD182
Troni-cad V1 Demo
This demo program was sent into us from France to show what the full
version can do. It allows you to design electrical curcuit diagrams and
print out the results. The output is very professional. the program is
easy to use and would be useful to anyone who needs decent diagrams of
this type.
GPD189
Gaters Gallery
Gator
This is a tutorial disk for DPaint. Gator is German and so the disk is
bilingual. The English is very good and although quaint in places
presents no problems. The tutorial uses DPaint 3, mainly because v4 was
bugged when it was produced. Gator deals mainly with the creation of
logos for demos, but I am sure that there are verry many handy hints on
the disk which will be of great use to all potential artists. The
picture screens are .iff, so can be loaded into Dpaint and played around
with. This disk comes highly recommended by Peter Paton, a Totally Amos
member, who sent it into us.
GPD213
Guitar Tuner Utility
Lee Gillett
Another guitar utility to add to your collection, this program helps you
to tune up your guitar properly with on screen diagrams and sounds.
Very stylishly presented by Lee. This is shareware, the registration is
a mere 2 quid and for that you will get a voucher which will give you 2
quid off the professional guitar video produced by Lee. Full details
are available in the ads on this disk. Lee sent us a copy of his video
and it was dutifully tried out by our 10 year old who has a small
knowledge of guitar playing and she found it extremly useful. All the
chord for the song are shown before you start a song then you can play
along with the video as it shows each chord change and the song is sung.
The disk is well recommended, the video also, although you will have to
send to Lee for that!
GPD216
Cool Copier
Someone In Australia!
This is a very good disk copier which was sent to us from Australia a

This program was written with Amos Pro and is a version of the Logo
language used by schools etc. There are ful instructions on the disk and
a Help facility which can be called up at any time. I haven't had time
to put this to much of a test yet, but what I've seen, looks good!
GPD231
BWrite
Ben Ashley
Ben has decided that this proggie is to be PD after holding onto it for
ages! It's an Ansi writer. If you do not know what this is, it is a
utility which allows you to `paint' using characters from the keyboard
to create coloured messages/pictures such are seen on Bulletin boards
etc. It's easy to use and useful for those wanting to design messages.

This is a demo version of a tracker-type program for budding
percussionists. There arre four tracks which can be filled with beats

You can cut and paste rythms, change instruments and load in a couple of
previously saved scores to hear what this program can do.In the full
version, available from Malcolm for a fiver, there is a choice of kit
which will make things even more fun! There are lots of facilities,
some of which have been disables in this version, but there are plenty
here to give you an excellent idea of how much fun you can have. This
program is very well presented and is easy to use and does what it says
it will! Have all the fun of being the next Phil Collins without the
expense of a full drum kit!
