============================== README.list51 =============================

This is disk 51 of the freely distributable AMIGA software library.

Bison		A replacement for unix "yacc" command.  This is from
		the GNU (GNU is Not Unix) effort, and was obtained
		from the Free Software Foundation.  This is a working
		update to the version on disk number 4, provided by
		Johan Widen.
		Author: Bob Corbett and Richard Stallman

Compress	This is an update to the compress version released
		on disk number 6.  It is tested and seems to work
		well except for a couple glitches noticed at the
		last minute (see the README file). Compress reduces the
		size of the named files using adaptive Lempel-Ziv coding.
		The amount of compression obtained depends on the size of
		the input, the number of bits per code, and the distribution
		of common substrings.  Typically, text such as source code
		or English is reduced by 50-60%.  Compression is generally
		much better then that achieved by Huffman coding
		(as used in "pack") or adaptive Huffman coding
		(as used in "compact"), and takes less time to compute.
		Author: Thomas Spencer, with improvements by others

Cos		A "Wheel Of Fortune" style game in AmigaBasic.
		Author:  Steve Michel

DifSsed		Dif produces a difference file which lists the
		line by line differences between any two text files.
		These differences can be fed to ssed (a stream type
		editor), along with the original text file, to remotely
		reproduce the other (new) file.  Binary only.
		Author:  Chuck Forsberg, Amiga port by Rich Schaeffer

Sq.Usq		Portable versions of the CPM sq and usq utilities.
		Author:  R. Greenlaw, many changes by Bill Swan
