Lately there has been some discussion about a program called SID which seems like a nice beast. But where can I find it? Any FTP site? I assume it is PD/ShareWare/FreeWare, is that correct? Please ... <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> << Tom Rindborg, SoftLab ab Phone : +46 13 21 24 70 >> << Teknikringen 14 Fax : +46 13 21 33 14 >> << S-583 30 LINKOPING Email : tom@softlab.se >> << SWEDEN UUCP : uunet!mcvax!sunic!heffa!tom >> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It was written by Timm Martin, 500 110th Avenue North #102, St. Petersburg, Florida 33716. It is distributed as shareware and the fee is $25. If you can't find SID posted to a local bulletin board you might write Timm direct. --Fabbian Dufoe 350 Ling-A-Mor Terrace South St. Petersburg, Florida 33705 813-823-2350 UUCP: ...uunet!pdn!jc3b21!fgd3

I think that it is a public domain program. I should be aboe to post it sometime today. I don't make any guarantees on how long I can keep it there. I will promise it will exist for at least two weeks, probably longer. -- Bill Murphy murphy@newton.physics.purdue.edu Enjoying my Amiga 2000, but holding out for a real computer: The Amiga 3000!!

SID was written by Timm Martin. Send him a check for $25 (the address is in the program). You'll be glad you did. He is working on version 2.0 now--it was almost ready for release last week. Timm has put a lot of effort into this program and deserves to get paid for his work. Besides, you want the latest version with all the improvements, don't you? --Fabbian Dufoe 350 Ling-A-Mor Terrace South St. Petersburg, Florida 33705 813-823-2350 UUCP: ...uunet!pdn!jc3b21!fgd3

Send him a check for $25 (the address is in the program). You are talking about two different programs. The public domain SID is a simple system monitor, which shows active tasks/libraries/device etc. This is the one available from newton.physics.purdue.edu. Tim Martin's SID is a very nice directory utility, which lets you copy/delete/rename/move between directories, execute scripts, run programs, display files in a variety of ways, automatic archiving/dearchiving etc. It is very comfortable and highly customizable. I downloaded an early version from a local BBS, but I have not seen it at any FTP sites, and it is not in the Fish collection, as far as I know. - Richard Westman, University of Linkoping, Sweden
