MC68881 Test Utilities
These two programs perform a simple test to determine if a MC68881 FPU (Math Coprocessor) chip exists, and if so, if it is working. These programs have only been tested on the MC68881 mapped into memory as a peripheral device (e.g. installed on the ICD AdSpeedST board or on the Atari SFP004 Floating Point Coprocessor board).

PC Format
If your ST uses a TOS older than version 1.4, the desktop format does not format DOS-readable disks. Run PC_FORM.PRG and follow the prompts. If you'd rather run it as a desk accessory, simply rename it PC_FORM.ACC (copy it to the root directory of your boot disk, then reboot).

NBMG 0.2
Benchmark program.

Captain Hook 1.0
Captain Hook "unhooks" other resident programs and accessories in order to eliminate conflicts with the programs you use. This is especially useful with MIDI programs that seem to get overflow problems or simply don't work when some resident software is installed.

LQ-Set
LQSETAC accessory and LQSETPR program allows you to set the different print styles on an Epson LQ printer. The accessory/program allows you to set the pitch - Pica (10 cpi), Elite (12 cpi), Condensed (15 cpi) and Ultra Tiny (17 cpi, superscript). You can also set the print styles, such as bold, double strike, italics, LQ, or double wide. These effects can be combined to produce other striking effects.

LHARC-Shell 1.30

Clipboard CPX 1.0
The Atari Clipboard system is built around two system calls scrp_read() and scrp_write(). They don't actually read or write information to the clipboard, they just let you access the pathname where the clipboard is located. Simply put, this CPX lets you better manage where your clipboard is located (what drive and path) and gives you some other options like clearing the directory on bootup and whenever else you choose.

ARC Shell 3.1
Shell for ARC. Supports the archiving of whole file trees with ARC 6.02. Furthermore, LHarc can now be completely controlled by the ARC shell.
