Jonathan Thanks for the info. Barbara
Andrew I not sure, really, if I'm going to use the Amiga for color DTP. But it's getting so that I need color capability more and more. So should I spend $$ on RAM and storage for my DOS box, or on the Amiga? I'd get better usage out of…

Does anyone have a printer driver for a Star SB-10 Printer? It is the 24 pin model? Leave message at 72456,3365.

Thanks for your help, Marlene. New Question. After downloading from Compuserve what is the easiest way to run new programs? /ex
Well sure it's possible. Boing! does it, for one. Though how they do it I don't know. Regards, Larry.
Ken, I just tried that command (though not in a startup sequence) and it seemd I seem to recall you saying that it worked with another name? Have you tried to another disk or to RAM: as a test? On a side note, I see you are using my echo…

Is there a way to open a screen behind Workbench. I want to open windows and prepare the screen before bringing it to the front. Is possible, no? —Mike

I was able to get copies of the 1.2 upgrade package, but my dealer didn't have any more of doc's. In the meantime, could somebody give me a brief rundown on the improvements to Amiga Basic? Thanks. >>Steve.

#Lattice C
Message #44142

We are developers using Lattice Version 3.03, and under both Beta 4 and Gamma 1, any program using printf, sprintf, or floating point conversion functions would die guru-style upon execution. Even the simple program "Hello, World!" would…
