Mushroom, beta-tester for Tom Larson's Lysergic Software, here...

Figured somebody out there might be interested in what's happening with
the various products Tom's been developing.  So as of 3/15/97:


2qwk!                                       release: 2.03U a.k.a.
2.04 Available on Ground & Caltech          inworks: ---  (done for now)
   The offline reader with the mostest was completed last October but
   was finally distributed in February (and resent to Ground in March).
   This project is about as complete as it is going to get offhand.

GZPK                                        release: 2.0
Unsure if distributed (I'll fix that!)      inworks: ??
  The util to convert .gz's found on FTP sites to .zip's for unpacking
  has been complete for awhile but has taken a back burner.

QFIX                                            release: 2.0GT
Distributed with 2qwk! (will send solo soon)    inworks: ??
  The most intuitive ProDOS/app patcher to allow MSDOS filename yet
  also has been complete for awhile but not distributed outside of the
  2qwk! bundle.

BSC-It                                      release: 1.0 (bsc only)
Uploaded to Caltech & Ground on 3/15        inworks: 2.0 (bsc + Base64)
  What takes Binscii 1.0.3 nearly a minute to encode takes BSC-It
  seventeen seconds.  The Base64 decoding in beta-7 works, no
  encoding yet; soon to be incorporated if all goes well are
  BinHex and uuencode/decode.

LuFiCeR                                     release: 1.0
Given to comp.bin.apple2 weeks ago          inworks: pending bug reports
  An intuitive LF/CR adder/remover for textfiles.  Will upload
  to the FTPs.   As with GZPK, QFix, and BSC-It, LuFiCeR uses
  browser-menus so the user doesn't have to type path/filenames,
  and is 8-bit for the //e through GS.


Email me for details on any of the above.               << mushroom >>
