The AMICUS Network, a national Amiga Computer User Network, has really
taken off.

AMICUS has accumulated several disks of public domain software, including
the MicroEmacs that George Jones mentioned, and a nroff-like program
called 'arrange'.  Lots of ABasic programs from CompuServe and BBSs around
the nation.  Lots of examples of C code for doing menus, etc.

The developer's disk is getting full, too, with downloads from the 
San Jose BBS.  Remember, this disk is only available to registered
developers, who send a xerox of their developer's acceptance letter.

You can write to AMICUS at:

Sight & Sound Music Software, Attn: AMICUS, 16 N. Carroll Street Suite 600,
Madison, Wisconsin 53703.

Just send a self-addressed disk mailer with your disks, and SASEs for copies
of the newsletter.  The newsletter is also available in electronic form,
for user groups that want to duplicate it for themselves.  I hope to post
a copy of the December issue before I graduate.

This is a very non-profit group, so your donations are appreciated.
