Also supplied is a bunch of preset functions and one nested function. Version 2 adds the option of contour plots and constraint functions that can be used in optimization problems, where the user has to identify the region where the function is at an minimum value, etc... Version 2.2 added the feature of producing a quicktime movie of a rotating surface. The current plot position is rotated 360 degrees about the z-axis in one degree increments. The demo is limited to a preset function. The full version can assemble multiple functions (see documentation).

It is based on Chaotic Software's first PCR chemistry applcation, Probe Assistant, but takes it a huge step forward by introducing a whole lot of new features, redesigned interface, and a bunch more. Feedback, as usual, is very welcome at Chaotic Software. In this case, though, applications of this nature must be accurate, and based very much on what YOU, the chemistry (or other life science discipline) lab user, would like to see in such a software package. Therefore, if you find any bugs, or if you have some suggestions for improvement, please let us know. We would love to make BioAssistant work for you in all the ways you expect.

Seashell II Lite is the same as Seashell II, except that it does not have custom folders and trash or seagull windowshade opening sound. It also does not have the custom cursor, icons, Holiday Lights bulbs or Pict for OS8 or Decor. It *does*, however, have the textures I designed for the desktop patterns control panel. Shareware.

I left the regular Kaleidoscope "whoosh" for the closing. It also includes a Seashell cursor I designed, Seashell icons in Icon Archiver format, a Seashell bulb file for Holiday Lights, a Seashell desktop Pict I drew for OS8 or Decor, and desktop textures I did for the desktop control panel. The most complete Kaleidscope color scheme created thus far. Shareware. I'm mailing this in self-extracting format; you should be able to just click to open.

It is distributed as a fat binary application and supports eight different levels of intelligence. You can play against a human opponent, your Mac or just simply watch your Mac play against itself. This brand new version of Super Othello utilizes completely new, 3D rendered 16- & 8-bit graphics, a completely new, less cluttered interface and some new features. Among the new features is the ability to undo moves, autoskip moves, invert the board and switch places with your opponent. The application also supports a larger degree of threading, making it feel overall much faster and more responsive. Super Othello 2.3 requires any relatively fast Mac or compatible (an 030 processor is recommended), 1800kb of RAM and a display capable of showing atleast 256 colors. Super Othello is fully compatible with MacOS 8. Super Othello is shareware $15. Please register it if you like it and continue to use it -- more information regarding registration is included with the program. =46or more information and other shareware/freeware products from Yellow Lemon Software, check out the YLS homepage, located at , or send e-mail to . -- Daniel St=F8dle Yellow Lemon Software E-mail: WWW: [Archived as /info-mac/game/brd/super-othello-23.hqx; 976K] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:29:15 -0700 From: rossowbe@cvfn.org Subject: [*] TristansTexturesVolume1 This collection is the first in a series of textures designed for our son, Tristan Sumner Ambrose-Rossow, who was born October 7, 1997.
