Arc; several comm programs… Access is the best one to reccomend, though it may require extra memory – Kieth??? A DirUtil – I like III, I also like IV. Browser – unquestionably. IFFENCODE. SuperView, with it's attendant Author program, and nocycle. MAKE them get Dpaint. <grin>. The only animation *I* would reccomend is Probe; the others are just frame flippers, no "spice" at all, excpet for one I saw recently, "Ghost Pool". FixHunk. SetFont II. For Icons, alticon, iconize, itype, zapicon. Blitzfonts, no question. Journal; Playback; memwatch (though I hate it, it's useful) morerows; mkidir (essential – makes dirs w/drawers) NewZap; runback; SetPri (that's a shameless plug, there <grin>) UEDIT; WBlace; GOMF 1.0; ChangeKickStart (assuming they have an a1000) PrtDrvGen (printer Driver Generator) The NEWTEK Demo; If they have or paln to use a 68010, Fix68010 is _essential_; Planes; LED, if they have an 500 or a 2000; SpTil (A print spooler, really fine!) CZL if they have a casio and are into midi; More; The AUX device; ASDG's VD0; Two or more of the neat collections of fonts here in the DLs, or where ever they originally came from; Assembler, compiler, languages of choice. Howzat? –Ben–
