Robert, Copy it to ram:, go to ram:, type lha138.run it will unpack itself. Then you can copy LHA (the program itself) to your C: directory. I'd also suggest reading the docs. Anytime you forget the commands or options you can type LHA on the shell and it will display…
Alex, No, I think it's 5 hours now. If you have summer time, it'll be six hours for a few weeks until the U.S. goes back to standard time too, when it will be five hours difference again. And yes, EDT/EST is the time used in New York. It's Eastern…
Tim, You're very welcome! Asha Another Day Another Million Colors
Joe, No, that won't work at all. You should be able to view GIFs with a good viewer program, I'd suggest ViewTek, or Superview, both of which are here in our libraries (search using the word viewer, or Viewtek or Superview). If you're running an ECS or OCS machine without…
Joe, I'm not sure what you mean by "Jps". What type of file is this? You need a uudecoder for the UUe files. You can find several here, UUINOUT1.LHA, UUXT.LHA or UUCODE.LHA should all work fine. I use (and have registered) Uuxt. Asha @}–,–`–
Peter, Ok…I'll be here as usual on Saturday, but Friday's are looking better and better…… Maybe next week's will move to Fridays. I will announce it if/when there is a change. Asha @}–,–`–
James, If I were about to by a brand new machine, the LAST thing I'd want to do is stick a Clone or Mac card in the darned thing. If I wanted to run those programs, I'd buy a clone or a Mac. I don't….so I won't… Looks like my…
Andre,
Ian, I'm counting on it! 🙂 Asha @}–,–`–
Ian, The only "west coast" show (WOA) I know of in recent years was the last WOA in Pasedena in '92. There used to be Ami-Expos in San Francisco and Oakland, but I don't remember anything any further north than that. I'm hoping they'll be a WOA in California sometime…
James, You may be right, and if you are, and PC aps don't run on this system, then they're probably not going to get too far with it, especially with no software to intice customers. But the system intrigues me, and I plan on following the information to see what…

Ben,
Ian, >no plans to make an NTSC A1200. What is an NTSC 1200? Never heard of one.> That upper quote was from the message I was quoting from, not my statement…:) There are VCRs that will do that too. I don't know whether AT is doing that but it would…
Alex, There is 5 hours differece between EDT and GMT not taking into consideration any summer time (EDT is Eastern Daylight Time, which will change to Eastern Standard Time [EST] at the end of the month). I don't know who, over there gets summer time (I know the UK does…
Dan, It's a shame there isn't an 800 number one can call when these things happen. I'd love to help someone get the Preview Amiga up and running again, or just tell them it's crashed (which is what I see most often). Ah well…it's always fixed by the next morning.…
Tim,
William, You might want to try Dean Brown (DKB Software) (71333,453). Asha Skimming through the Redwoods on AutoPilot
Kenneth, Since the operating system is copyrighted, you'll need to either get back to whomever you got the system from or to an Amiga dealer and explain the situation. Another option would be to purchase the OS (it would probably be a different OS, as I don't think 1.3, which…
Ben,
Hank, Actually both Dr. Kittel and Gilles Bourdin said that there would be up to 15,000 A1200's shipped to North America. Hopefully that information is in the archive I keep trying to send you. (BTW, if it doesn't work next time I try sending it, I'll just start sending it…
Franz, Actually there have been two conferences per weekend for the last month or so, and I'm getting more Europeans attending on the Sunday CO's than the Saturday ones (even if both are general conferences). What do you think about Friday conferences? Asha @}–,–`–
Sean,
Hank,
Peter, Friday would be quite possible, and possibly even better for me than Saturday! Sunday would be impossible, and would have me online for conferences almost all day (they're tending to last up to two hours, so that would be from 2:00-4:00 and then again from 6:00-8:00…MUCH too much for…
Dan, Sounds like the Preview channel! Seems that almost nation-wide the Preview channel is running on Amigas. I've seen the old "Guru meditations" (black and red screen) several times (mostly late at night or early in the morning), but I've never seen a workbench screen….. 🙂 Asha @}–,–`–
Randy, Virtually all external modems will work with your Amiga. When you buy one you can use a good PC modem cable with it also. I'm using a Supra 14.4 FAX modem, and it works perfectly well. Others prefer USRs, and still others like other brands. As for software, I'd…
Franz, I'm aware that the Sunday conferences are rather late for the European crowd. That's why we started the Saturday ones. It is up to the vendors as to when they want to schedual their conferences, and so far, all of the ones I've contacted want to do it on…

David, < Buy a Zip or a Jaz drive and take it with you to the new Amiga 4000T> There's a possibility……but I think I'm going to try to hold out for the 1 gigger in the T. That, along with the 500 meg drive I've got at the moment…

Paul,
Alan, After you've saved your pictures form the Vidi (hardware) to the software have you tried viewing it on the Amiga? I'm not familiar with that hardware or any software that comes with it. I've converted pictures using OpalPaint, Adpro and ImageFX to JPegs and given them to friends with…
Sandra, Some places have different node numbers for different speeds. Are you sure you're using the correct node? Try typing GO PHONES if you're in doubt. Asha Skimming through the Redwoods on AutoPilot
Stewart, I have been able to run a few things that are described as AGA as well as ECS compatible in the higher color modes (a few shareware games, mostly). But anything labeled as AGA only does not work (Brilliance, DPaint AGA, any AGA only game) as the programs were…
Alan, < i saved the picture on vidi 12 rt. does that help you?> Sorry, but no, that doesn't help me. What is vidi 12 rt? Is it hardware, software, what? I've never heard of it. Asha Another Day Another Million Colors
Michael, Best of luck getting your software together for the PICT conversion. There was a release of the 1.51 (I think) version of ImageFX that came out with one of the european Amiga magazines (unfortunately I don't know either the specific magazine or which issue it came with) that you…
Gary, Ok…you've downloaded the file, which is called Somethingorother.lha, right? Then what did you do? From DirOPus you can (depending on the version you're using) click and click (click on the LHA file and then click on the destination) or drag and drop and it should unpack the file for…

Davey, Reboots the computer…that's all, no requestors, no nothing. As I said it was a quick and dirty program I grabbed off of Usenet. I use it every once in a while and haven't had any problems…yet….:) Asha Skimming through the Redwoods on AutoPilot
Dieter, Thanks for the script, we'll see how it goes. I did re download Xanim so when I get a few spare minutes I'll see if I can get it to work. I really appreciate the help! 🙂 Asha Another Day Another Million Colors
