Many of the programs on the second<br />
corer disk are what are commonly known<br />
as Shareware. Such well written programs<br />
take many hours to write and a lot of<br />
hard work and dedication on the part of<br />
the programmer.<br />
When a program is called shareware it<br />
means the programmer has generously<br />
allowed you to try out their program, a lot<br />

of the time with no restrictions and if you<br />
then decide you like it you are obliged to<br />
send the author the shareware fee.<br />
Normally this is no more than ten<br />
pounds and in return the author will<br />
usually keep you supplied with the latest<br />
version of that program, along with their<br />
undying gratitude of course.<br />
So please don't forget to send your fee.<br />
The version of MUI on the coverdisk is unregistered which still allows you to run all MUI<br />
programs which have many advantages over your normal Gadtool interfaces, but you will<br />
be stuck with the standard Gadtools look.<br />
The full version of Magic User Interface allows you to tailor almost every pixel of each<br />
MU1 program to your own taste, and future registration fees will normally be at a<br />
reduced amount. The prices are as follows:<br />
Registering for the full version of MUI will cost you El 5/520<br />
Upgrading from a previous version of MUI will cost EB/S I 0<br />
Readers using the <strong>Amiga</strong> <strong>Computing</strong> MU1 2.2 coverdisk will, unfortunately,<br />
have to pay the full registration fee because it was a special one<br />
off version_<br />

SCOUT<br />
Author: Andreas Gelhausen<br />
Magic User Interlace<br />
Workbench 2.04<br />
Scout is a system monitor which allows you to<br />
find out many things about the state of your<br />
computer such as libraries, windows, resident<br />
commands, tasks, interrupts, ports, memory and<br />
loads of other things. It is also possible to perform<br />
a number of operations on certain parts of<br />
your system, close windows, and freeze tasks.<br />
MUI is not actually needed as all of Scouts<br />
functions can be accessed through the shell, but<br />
this is obviously not as simple You can even<br />
use Scout as an AmiTCP service which allows<br />
you to access other people's machines over<br />
network.<br />
Mtn SCREEN<br />
MODE 1.5<br />
Author: Cyril Deble<br />
Magic User Interface<br />
Workbench 2,04<br />
The nicest thing you can say about the onginal<br />
<strong>Commodore</strong> Screen Mode requester is that it<br />
worked. This MUI version gives you the obligatory<br />
tailored MU1 interface that is font sensitive<br />
and resizable, and it also has the unusual<br />
option of letting you have a Ham screen mode<br />
This potentially allows you to have around<br />
quarter of a million colours on your Workbench<br />
MAD HOUSE<br />
Author Carsten Jahn<br />
Magic User Interface<br />
Workbench 2.04<br />
Blankers on Macs and PCs have started to turn<br />
heads, and this all kicked off from the old flying<br />
toaster blanker that appeared on the Mac by the<br />
After Dark people years ago. Unfortunately, this<br />
has ended up with certain PC blankers requiring<br />
20Mbs of hard drive space as they actually end<br />
up telling a complete story.<br />
If you do not have that amount of space to<br />
spare then Madhouse could be just what you<br />
are looking for. It is a MU: screen blanker, similar<br />
to Blitz Blank, and is very easy to use and set<br />
up. You should use the provided installer icon<br />
to install Madhouse, otherwise you will need to<br />
set an assign by hand so it can find its blanker<br />
modules.<br />
As standard. Madhouse comes with 12<br />
blankers but it can accept SwazBlanker modules,<br />
so if you have this alteady you can extend<br />
your number of blanker programs. Of interest<br />
there is a Sensible Soccer look-a-like blanker<br />
that plays out a full football match, or soccer<br />
match to our overseas friends.<br />
There are plenty of options that separate<br />
MadHouse from other blankers and it comes<br />
with a good number of quality blankers the<br />
snow, soccer and nautical are particularly novel.<br />
This is a shareware program so if you plan to<br />
keep it do not forget to register as this will<br />
insure that it will be continued to be developed<br />
in the future<br />
