New 2068 Library Volumes!

Catalog of contents of CATS library tapes.

Volume 8

• TRACER – A machine-code routine that places a small window in the upper left corner of the screen that displays what I ine of a BASIC program is currently runing! Great for debugging programs.
• RESISTOR – Decodes the banding on resistors.
• SOUNDEFFECTS – A utility demonstrating a number of different effects mode possible by the SOUND command.
• CALORIBURN – Calculates the number of calories burned in a given period of time for a wide variety of exercises.
• SENDVARS – A format for exchanging information between two modems using MTERM.
• VARSLIST – A similar program that allows the ex- change of variables between computers via MTERM.
• ATTR TABLE – A complete table of the possible combinations of PAPER and INK attributes available on the 2068.
• MULTIFILE – A fairly sophisticated database program.
• METRIC CONVERSION – Converts data from standard Measures to metric. Now you can make sense of those European cookbooks!
• HEXLOADER – A hex code loading utility.
• MC-MOVE – Moves the starting addresses of relocatable machine code.
• ASSEMBLER – A rather nice assembler utility!
• DISASSEMBLER – The “flip-side” of the previous program.
• COPYCAT – Here is what many of you have been waiting for – a 2068 version archival copying utility!
• MULTITAPE – A utility for making catalogues of the programs on your cassette topes.
• VARS TRACER – An m/c routine that traces and lists the variables used in a BASIC program.
• BINARY – Demonstrates the use of binary numbers and calculates them from other number systems.
• PHONE DIRECTORY – A telephone number database.

Volume 9

• TRIG GRAPHICS – A program that lets you plot 30 graphic grids using trig functions.
• SPRITE – Don’t let this one fool you! It “pretends” to crash, and then suddenly a free-flying sprite appears!
• COMPLEX 5, 7 & 8 – Three SCREEN# chained together. to demonstrate the possibilities of the next program.
• COMPLEX – Generated the SCREEN$ above. It is a graphics plotter that takes several hours to achieve its results.
• PYRAMID – Generates over twenty perspectives on a 30 pyramid and then performs a slow animation routine with them.
• SPIRAL – A very interesting animated single helix.
• DROPPAGES – Rotates 3 plotted screens of pictures.
• DROP – Another (faster) routine for plotting functions.
• EXP – An animation routine that rotates 4 screens of exponent plots.
• EXP 2 & EXP 3 – These are my favorites of the animated images in this volume. From two different perspectives these pictures PULSATE like heartbeats! Fascinating to watch, interesting to study.
• SADDLE COSINE – Rotating images of plotted cosine functions.
• SADDLE COSINE 1 – Pulsating cosine functions.
• RLE GRAPHICS ENCODER/DECODER – Jack Dohaney does it again! A wonderfully well-wrought. program for working with RLE (Run Length Encoded Graphics, which are downlaodable from Compuserve and other telecommunications services. To download an RLE file, see the related article in this Issue. This program is menu-driven and self-explanatory, IF YOU LIKE AND USE THIS PROGRAM, SEND MR. DOHANEY A CONTRIBUTION! His address can be found by listing one of his programs from Volume 3.
• SPACE – A sample SCREEN$ file for use with the RLE Encoder/Decoder. Load by choosing “screen” at the LOAD menu prompt.
• SPACEFILE – An RLE file version of the some image. Load by choosing “file” at the LOAD menu prompt, and then select the DECODE option.
