Introduction
Below is the list of what is included in a default AmigaOS installation. You can find either programs or a group of "sub-programs" that another program needs. For your convenience they are marked with a "(Dir)" if they represent a directory.
AmigaOS SYS:Utilities
AmiGS (Dir)
AmiPDF (Dir)
Blankers (Dir)
The Blankers drawer contains individual modules which are used to blank the screen, usually replacing the screen's contents with moving patterns or images. Each module can provide a different effect, and it is these modules which are used by the ScreenBlanker commodity. Additional modules can be downloaded and added to this drawer. The modules used are selected using the Blanker preferences program.
bru
Calculator
CatComp
Clock
Commodities (Dir)
The Commodities drawer contains small "commodity" programs - little applications which can add or modify features of AmigaOS in order to adjust its behaviour to your liking. Examples include Exchange for controlling all commodities, ClickToFront for changing how windows are moved to the front of the view on screen, and ScreenBlanker which shows a screen saver after a period of inactivity.
Dockies (Dir)
Ghostscript (Dir)
GraphicDump
HDBackup

MultiView
MultiView is a multipurpose viewer utility. It will display all files for which a datatype is installed. Multiview is capable of displaying different files such as text, pictures, sound and animations. It can be controlled by a GUI, command line arguments and an AREXX interface.
NotePad
Notepad is a utility for editing plain text files. It supports clipboard operation for copying and pasting text to and from other files and applications, and can be controlled using a simple GUI. For more advanced users, Notepad can be used for editing scripts, such as ARexx scripts or the S:User-Startup file.
PartitionWizard
PlayCD
ppp_connector, ppp_dialer, ppp_sample
PrefsObjectsEditor
PrintFiles
RawDisk
SGrab (Dir)
The SGrab drawer contains the SGrab commodity and documentation. SGrab is used for taking screengrabs of AmigaOS screens and saving them in a location and format of your choosing. Many options are available, such as hotkey activation and adjustable image quality. See the enclosed documentation for more details.
