Post by: kvasarnomad on August 03, 2004, 01:32:02 PM

I want to know which WB Tools that is almost a must-have
I have installed VisualPrefs and also Toolsdaemon
and now my WB is alot easier to use, but I want more tools like this.
Im running a manual-upgraded OS3.5(I dont have a CD-ROM, so I copied everything where I thought it should be)

DiskMaster2 is a flexible and useful file-manager
program. You can do anything with it.
Check it out!

Most of these little patches can be found in programs like MultiCX and MCP.  Be careful running too many utilities though, my Amiga got pretty darn buggy after running about two dozen of them at once.  :-)

Here are some WB tools I think are must-have:

Directory Tool - ABCDir
Palette Locking - LoadCMAP
Screen Promotion - ModePro
Menu Enhancer - MagicMenu, AddTools
Icon Editor - Iconian (2.9r)
Window utils - WindowToFront, Iconify & TitleShadow
Title Clock - NISclock
Text Copying - PowerSnap
Drive Click Stop - DrivePrefs
Full screen shell - ScreenShell
File finder - SimpleFind3
Disk Salvage - DiskSalv 4
Application Monitor - SnoopDOS
System Monitor - Scout (37.249)
Binary Editor - Hex
Virus Program - VirusZ
Magnifyer - Zoom


They should all be on Aminet.

You didn't look hard enough!

Yeah, you're right. It's not there. But I said it SHOULD be on Aminet. ;-)

With so many good utilities, and with the verge of new users... I think it's lacking a good review system, maybe à lá Wickipedia, so the user can share it's down and plus side and cross referencing with other similar utilities...
