Amiga Utility Disks (Hope this is the right section)

jjsmith · 11 February 2006, 01:43

I am a collector of Utility disks, I would like to request that any NON-TOSEC disks could be uploaded to the Zone (or tell me where i can get some more). Ive already been through the Back 2 roots archive (17-Bit) collection. No matter how virus ridden or problematic i would love to have all of these disks.

As far as i know these are all Public Domain, if some arent please point it out so as to not upset people.

If any of you would like any of these in the list just ask.

The text file is a dir listing of what ive got already..

Edit: BTW the numbers in the disk name are the Number in 17-Bit / Quartz PD Collection

I've got quite a bunch of utils - some of them "selfmade" by friends of mine. However, theyre stored away behind a s...load of boxes so I can't get to them easily. However, I'm planning on getting access to all my old disks (10 disk boxes full ) before summer, and then I will post my collection here in case it turns out I've got something that's not readily available. Luckily I was very anal about maintaining a catalog disk of all my games and utils all those years back when I used my Amiga. Now, if I could only get to that disk...

Upped some into the Zone.IIRC non TOSEC disks.

jjsmith · 12 February 2006, 00:27

Thankyou NOB for the disks

Remember if you want any disks in the list just post here

Do you think it would be a good idea to submit some Utility disks to TOSEC? Can just anyone submit a disk to them?

I made my own custom utility disks back in the day. These were never spread, just contained my own favourite tools etc. I did put a menu / loader on them as they were planned for release, but never did. I've uploaded them to the zone.

[edit] I thought I had some... I never ADF'd them.. best try and find them now

Frog · 21 February 2006, 21:42

i made my own utility disk too with essential tools for me.
To help people to find tool here is a list of Devious Tool 1->212, don't ask me for the disk i don't have them...

jjsmith · 24 February 2006, 06:54

WOW! thanks for the disks NOB. Its MUCH appreciated.

Hello to another Aussie!!

I've got about 50 "MegaDisks" plus some
Ace Utility disks & possibly others.

The Megadisks have reviews,pics,tutorials,articles,hacks,utility
progs etc.

It seems to be all PD (?)

If you want 'em, EMail you address & I'll send you a CD.

PS-I live in Adelaide.

Cheers

Quite a few Aussies on his board

Megadisc was a commercial disk magazine sold in Australia.

I've already submitted a heap for TOSEC (see: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...light=megadisc) You may be able to fill some gaps.

NOB · 25 February 2006, 15:50

Here is a W.I.P list of my Applications and Utility Disks

I am aware that some of the Applications may still might be under copyright
(If something that is copyright is requested, please tell me. I don't want to do the wrong thing by anyone)

Im still in the process of naming these disks properly and as you can see i still favour the TOSEC naming style

Utility Disk List - Utils.txt
