translator 6.60 had some bugs. It has been replaced by 6.61. Many thanks to
John for keeping us up to date!

New software from John:
packdir - directory archiver. About 3 times as fast as Spark. Useful for
selective backups of HDs.


There's a new version of stracker. Description:
Here is the latest version of !STracker (2.77). This version now
uses PM 3.04, and as a consequence plays !Tracker modules as well
as STMs. It also now makes some use of Simon Huntingdon's Interface
Manager module. Now it is possible to save the samples of an STM or
!TM (?) as a raw, logarithmic file, a !Tracker format sample file, or
Armadeus format.

Thanks to Julian Wright.

Finally, another set of utilities:
appl2 - another collection of useful applications.

It contains the following 5 Public Domain applications:

AutoStart  (1.00)  Boot HardDisc applications.
!DirKiller (1.04)  Access/Delete directories and files.
!DualPrint (1.28)  2 column BASIC listing.
!FormSize  (1.02)  Calculate Template workspace.
!RMVersion (1.00)  Examine modules without loading.

Thanks to Mark (surname unknown) who submitted the software.

To retrieve a file from the archive, send a message to

where filename is replaced by the name of the file that you want.
A filename of 'index' will send you the latest index file.
