replay_harrier3 has now been added to the archive.

New utilities by Stephen Burke. Names and descriptions are as follows.

baslib:

Basic library routines to allow the use of floating-point mnemonics within the
Basic assembler. Previously released through Archive and APDL.

bbctap:

!BBCTape reads files from a tape-based BBC micro to an Arc via a serial link.
Unique in its rather limited market :-) May be able to read disc files as well
(not tested). Originally released through Archive, but seems to have made its
way into quite a few PD libraries.


cycle:

!Cycle lets you cycle through the window stack, bringing the backmost window to
the front, either with a hot key or by clicking on its icon. Not previously
released.


default:

This generates a little utility to reset all those annoying things that demos
and badly-behaved programs mess up; sound voice allocations, mouse speed,
system font definition etc. etc. Not previously released.


keychange:

KeyChange is a module which provides extra "hot key" codes (allowing all codes
between &80 and &ff to be typed), and allows the numeric keypad to simulate the
function keys (including the extra hot keys). Extensive documentation and
source code is included. Not previously released. (Not tested with RISC OS 3).

loader:

This is !Loader, a little utility to trigger file loads from the desktop.
Previous versions have been released through Archive and APDL, but this version
is new.





 
To retrieve a file from the archive, send a message to 
info-server@newcastle.ac.uk with the following content:

line-limit 1000
request: sources
topic: archimedes filename
request: end

where filename is replaced by the name of the file that you want.
A filename of 'index' will send you the latest index file.
A filename of 'tail_index' will send you the list of the last 50 files added
to the archive.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SOFTWARE IS VIRUS FREE BEFORE SENDING IT TO ME
