Title: What programs do you use?????
Post by: barney on May 31, 2008, 05:48:22 AM

Hey everybody, I am looking for free useful programs that help me enhance the Amiga OS.  For example, I amd using Magic WB, and "windowtofront".  Before I found "windowstofront", I found it extremely tedious trying to bring the rear windows to the front of the desktop.  What programs do you use on your Amiga to enhance and make things easier?

ToolsDaemon, MagicMenu, MCP (takes a long time to configure before you get a stable config), Executive (on those machines where it doesn't cause problems)

ScreenTab, NoteIt!, Ordering, Born, Hp11c, & MultiDos.  Most, if not all,  of these are oldies but goodies and available on aminet.  

When I have some time, I'm going to search for a simple clipboard enhansement that takes multiple text fields.  This would be great for Mp3 ID tags.

Ordering rocks! One of my favorite Apps. Its still a must have after I do a clean install.

I get the impression that we 2 may be the only ones who know of it.  What a shame, it's excellent!

Another vote for MCP, (If you're lucky enough to have a 3 button mouse, set MCP to cycle windows with the middle button, worked great for me) ToolsDaemon, ToolManager, used KingCon for years, as well.

Oh, completely useless but cool, ReqAttack for requesters... Love the animated 'about' requester...

Oh, PowerSnap too....
