Short: SID v2.00 trial, original distribution from AC June '92. Author: Timm Martin Uploader: nbache post5 tele dk (Niels Bache) Type: util/dir Architecture: m68k-amigaos This archive contains the original (almost, see below) distribution of the trial version of SID2, taken from the Amiga Computing cover disk from June 1992. Recently (Jan/Feb '99) a thread has again been running in the newsgroup comp.sys.amiga.applications about SID. Among other things it was asked how to get hold of SID2, and since it doesn't seem to be on Aminet already, I decided to upload it. According to the file "Distribution", it can be freely distributed subject to a few restrictions. The only one which could be discussed in this case is the following: 2) All of the files must be included in their original form without additions, deletions, or modifications of any kind. I have archived all the files from the SID2 directory on the original cover disk plus the drawer icon without making any modifications, except for one thing: Five of the files were crunched with PowerPacker, they have been decrunched before the whole thing was archived. My excuse for uncrunching these files is that PowerPacker is not nearly as common among users today as it was in 1992, and since the whole thing is LhA'ed anyway, it wouldn't have saved any space worth mentioning. I do not regard this as a modification, but merely as a changed method of representation. I assume this is acceptable and in the spirit of the conditions. Finally, I can not take any responsibility for the contents of this archive. I just took it from the old cover disk, virus checked it, decrunched the five files as mentioned above, archived it and uploaded it. Have fun with it! And if you have questions about its use, please try the newsgroups etc., don't ask me. I just happened to have the cover disk lying around ;-) Niels Bache nbache@post5.tele.dk
