> I have Workbench 3.1 However, I do not have the software. I assume by this you have the hardware 3.1 ROM in your system, and simply need the 3.1 diskettes…? If so, then you _can_ buy just the diskettes & manual from Software Hut (or other various mail order…
#Ext DF1 not ready, probl
Message #216962
I just installed an internal 270 Syquest drive, and I had to remove my second internal floppy to do it. My question: I still have an external floppy hooked up (It was DF2:), but my computer isn't acknowledging that it's there. I get an icon on my WB that says…
> makes all sorts of claims on IBrowses behalf.. I -think- (Don't quote me) they're waiting for MUI V3 —snip— Isn't there anybody out there with enough mercy to make a Web Browser _without_ requiring MUI?? There are certainly enough GUI generating programs out there to do a lot of…
> They have now. There's an A1200-version available with the PCMCIA-thing fixed. Great! Now for Workbench v4.0 to come out w/memory management, built-in networking, aspect-corrected window bar sliders, etc.! Gregory Donner [Internet: 102673.1743@compuserve.com]

Richard, I purchased an old version from a CIS member and then ordered the upgrade directly from Waterloo Maple Software! I got their telephone number from the posting Micheal Shea put on CIS — try (519) 747-2373. I'm pretty confident that if you want to purchase the complete package directly…
Niels, I had problems with AmiTCP v4.2 last spring.It concerned the bsdsocket.library not being found. Upon contacting NSDI tech support I was told that the bsdsocket.library is create dynamically by the AmiTCP binary when the program is started by the 'startnet' script. The startnet script uses the Arexx 'WAITFORPORT' command…

I looking for info on Adspec Programming who produced Aladdin 4D. Are they still in business, does anyone know their current address and phone number. Does any know the status of Aladdin 4D what is the current version etc. Any help appreciated. Roy On AutoPilot from the UK
Gregory, >> but at one time upgrading from 3.0 to 3.1 on a 1200 basically rendered the PCMCIA useless. This was because C= had not developed a version specific to the 1200…
Joe, >> IBrowse needs MUI 3.0. could somone please up load MUI if it is possible. > I look forward to seeing Ibrows here on compuserve because they sait that ith would be Public Domain software.
I don't need my PCMCIA slot anyway because I already have 4MB installed. Is it worth waiting for the next upgrade since a lot of changes are being made now with the Amiga computers? I also want to add to my hard drive memory. I have 80MB. But now it…
Andy, would like to make an offer on your board, and have you ship it on Monday. Am away for the weekend, but you can call me Sunday pm at home, at 703/522-5280, or Monday all day at work, at 202/667-5266. Hope it isn't sold yet. David.

Hi Jim, (again!) The latest version of Personal paint (6.4) comes on a cd called "The personal suite" from Colanto and is -excellent- value for money, for 40 UK pounds not only does it contain PP but it has Sbase, Personal write PFM (Personal Font Maker), oodles of clipart, even…
Jim, Hisoft have written their own software to accompany the Zip, they mentioned it in -tiny- letters in their ad, so I called and begged a direct purchase of it.. the lady said it will be on sale seperately in 2 weeks at 15 UK pounds. I`ll let you know…
Pete, >If I come across anything for the Amiga, I'll let you know. Great! Thanks. When folks were initially discussing the need for this buffing machine on-line, it was assumed that some enterprising Amigan progammer would find a way to duplicate the DOS prog – but I have not seen…
Ed, Where do you order Maple? -Richard
Without being able to go into detail (unfortunately) I have found that it seems to be a combination of which wordprocessor (yours sounds like WP at the moment) and the setting in it, possibly the Workbench settings and it sounds like you're tried these already. The problem seems to stem…
Dale! You left out Australia in your distribution notices again 🙂 regards, Lu on AutoPilot downunder
I am not really familiar with AmiTCP but, if the program is looking for the socket.library in say the `AmiTCP:libs/' directory and you copied it to `libs:' directory that could be the problem. Of course it could be the other way and should be in `libs:' not the `AmiTCP:libs/'. When…
SSA on SCALA
Message #216928
Is there a way to play SSA – animations ( from Monument Titler etc ) with Scala? (Or just start them from Scala) Many greetings, Anton -Anton Gutscher

PAWS
Message #216923
I have uploaded two pictures of the PAWS600 and 1200 into News and Rumours Library. This is how they look today (10/28/95). The PAWS kit will be available for sale in one week for delievery by Mid December to your doorstep. Shawn Silent Paw Productions, Inc.
John, The transitions and animations on the Windows side just aren't smooth when compared to the Amiga. I am hoping the Amiga can grab some attention over here where I work, but I am not pushing anymore. I am finding myself becoming more of a cross-platform worker. Good Luck on…
Chuck, No…I don't think there's a doc here, but yes…Denny checks in now and then. Don
Peter, Hopefully the authors of the program will let us know if the program is specific to NTSC or PAL. But if we do know…we'll try to make sure that information is in the description. Don
Hello David. Sorry I didn't return your phone call, I'm out on the road setting up a sound system for an Arabian gig. I recieved a check today for the 040 board. My client was holding out for an 060 board, but since their release is going to be held…

#Live and Learn
Message #216916
Betty, Asha et al, Thanks again so much. I've been intuitively coming to grips with all of this and discovered that my dearchived downloads were appearing in my Systems directory. I have not figured out why typing "CD RAM" was not working as it did when I dearchieved AP, but…
#disc copy utility
Message #216915
I have for some time been a user of a disc copying utility for all my game discs called PowerCopyProfessional. It has never failed to make a backup of any game disc no matter what form of encryption protection is placed therein by the software writer. Have you heard of…
#information
Message #216914
When browsing through Classifieds or Libraries, there seems to be no indication of wether the game/libfile will work on PAL. We in Australia as well as Europe use PAL not NSTC. Can the system be amended to show this useable distinction?

Bill, It is Asimware 2.0 and the SCSI cable connects to the SCSI port. Do you have a hard drive? If so it would connect to the external SCSI connector on your SCSI controller card. Cheers, Marty ProActive Images Inc.
>Latest word here is Jan'96 on the '060's. Hope that's wrong. Hi Hank. Last word I got was Feb.96, and I just finished speaking to several hopefull 060 manufacturers. Seems as though the last 060 run still has flaws, and it will take another production run to work them out.…
