Added compilation section:

In this directory is some of the more well know compilations of software. Below is the description of what they are and where they came from.

The Altman fairware library was maintained by several different user’s groups over time.

Amnion IUG is the library of the International TI User’s Group.

BCS would be the Boston Computer Society library.

Chicago TIUG is the library of the Chicago TI users group.

Tigercub would be Tips from the Tigercub, which showed up in a lot of disks he sent out–and which appeared in many different newsletters as well.

BIG thank you to @Ksarul for the information of the history & description of the compilations (who I shamelessly copy-pasted to the website :)  )

BTW, the Amnion library was maintained after the demise of the IUG by Guy Stefan-Romano until his death. New programs were being added to it up until that point. I have most of the disks from the library as originals received directly from him, although I wasn't able to complete my set before his passing. The last set I received were from an order I made shortly before his passing--an order kindly fulfilled by his life partner in the aftermath (and the accompanying letter letting me know he was shutting the Amnion Helpline down was also how I found out Guy was ill in the first place).

just curious, what year did he pass? I'm going to add to the post on my database about Guy maintaining the database till his passing. he needs to be honored for his efforts.

added @Shift838 store to the store section under other sites.

added hardware section with 77 hardware documents in the documents section. I'm not a hardware guy so I guessed at what was the essentials for hardware. If you know of any other hardware docs you think I might need to add, post it here.

adding just one today because it took a while to clean up the txt based manual.

added J&KH Super Extended BASIC (SXB). this looks like a fairly interesting XB extension that adds database, string and some graphics capabilities. the database subroutines adds elements such a indexing.

Was your manual the final version? ISTR that he put out additions with new routines (and additional manual pages) every quarter while he supported it. That was the main reason it came in a small binder--updates to the manual were easy that way.

I checked it out. the Cyc has a addum that this file I found does not have. I'm going to add just the information of the addum & re-upload the text file. I believe then it is up to date.

On your Google drive for the Scott Adams Adventures "Adventureson1Disk", the disk image that is in that folder does not contain the adventure games listed. Instead, it contains this:

thanks for the catch. that is the Adventurecart-on-disk disk file that enables you to run adventure without the need for the cartridge. it's been properly labeled and the correct file adventure-gamedisk has been uploaded.

Today added some Myarc docs in Hardware Myarc. They are Myarc Memory card, Personality WDS-100 user manual, Myarc XBII manual and appendices (thanks @blackbox on Atariage for all your hard work) and put SpaceSpace II in the Myarc section (yes I know it's not Myarc) since it's used with Myarc XBII a lot.

Cleaned some misplaced files in the Scott Adams Adventure section. The actual disk with all the games was missing and another file was mislabeled. (thanks @majestyx of Atariage for the catch).
