CHANGE HISTORY February 9, 1996
This is an adminstrative page listing each release and the changes made from
the previous release.
Creation and Maintenance of this Web Site
This site was created and is maintained on Amiga 3000T and Amiga 2000/30 computers using a simple text editor (Turbo Text). Images are scanned with an Epson 600c flat bed scanner and adjusted with ADPro imaging software. The pages conform to HTML-1 and -2 standards with the occasional lapse to HTML-3 and Netsacape extensions. Best viewing will be with Netscape 2 (IBrowse or AWeb on the Amiga). File changes are uploaded to ONRAMP.CA using AMIftp software. The computers run under AmigaDOS 3.1, a true 32bit multitasking operating system with a fully integrated command line and GUI interface. The OS was designed and marketed some years before Windows as a multimedia platform with full NTSC video support. Amiga systems are frequently found today as Newtek Video Toasters used to provide inexpensive video editing and modelling capabilities for TV and Cable.
I recommend HTML for Dummies and More HTML for Dummies. They are excellent reference sources for anyone wishing to design or maintain a web site.
