Hide A small utility to allow you to run old or ill-written
applications on systems with expansion ram. When hide
is running, all memory allocations take place in chip
memory. Somehow, something like this missed making it
onto my earlier disks. Binary only. Author: Francois
Rouaix

ImageTools A set of shareware tools, submitted by the author, to
do various manipulations on IFF images, including
comparison of the color palettes of a pair of IFF
images, filtering an IFF image in various ways,
producing a color usage frequency chart for an IFF
image, reducing the size of an IFF image to produce a
miniature to use as an icon, converting an icon to an
IFF image, and recoloring an IFF image using the
palette of a second image, in a least squared error
fashion. Shareware, binary only. Author: Stephen
Vermeulen

LowMem Another fine freely redistributable product from ASDG.
This one is a low memory server, which is a compact
shared library which allows arbitrary processes to
register their desire to be notified of impending
memory shortages. This allows good citizen programs to
free up memory that they may not need, so other
programs can use it. Binary only. Author: Perry
Kivolowitz

user friendliness, but interesting nevertheless. Also
