Barbara, I took a look at the documentation for AmigaUtil and the following address was given: Amiga Team Canada BBS a/s Marc Lafontaine 452 des Pins La Plaine, Quebec Canada J0N 1B0 Hope this helps, Regards, S.P. from Tokyo
Roy, Thanks for taking the trouble to provide the information. I'll take a good look at the doc files. Do you think AmigUtil is superior to the new incarnation of Diskmaster? Regards, S.P. from Tokyo
Gary, Thanks very much for the prompt reply. I hope it proves feasible. If so, would you please provide a few specific examples? That would help non-techie types like me follow what you are doing and perhaps put this feature to good use. Regards, S.P. from Tokyo
Roy, I have just started using AmigUtil and found it to be an excellent utility, much better than DiskMaster which I have been using so far. What is the purpose of inserted control characters in the programmable buttons? What are some of the additional functions that become available? Thanks. S.P.…
Rick, I just downloaded MSH (alias "Messy Dos") yesterday and got it up and working within an hour or so. I appended the sample mountlist used in the msh.man file as is in my mountlist file, but nothing happened. Then I added the line "Mount MSH:" to my StartupII file…
Larry, Pete Gould has just informed me that this bug has been fixed by Innovision. This would make BTII much more useful to me. Regards, S.P. from Tokyo
Larry, I am only an amateur dabbler when it comes to titling packages and have used Broadcast Titler I and II for the last two years. The output of the program is outstanding and I believe it has all the features you require. I got the latest version about three…
Customizing AmigUtil
Message #29760
I have been using AmigUtil for the last several days and find it an excellent utility much better and faster than the current version of DiskMaster which I used to use. My question is this, with all the programmable buttons available, is there some way of entering default values when…
ARexx with HyperBook
Message #12148
I recently came across this reference to what appears to be an easy way to approach ARexx for non-programmers. ARexx may be a relatively simple tool from the programmers standpoint, but I recently purchased the program and looked through the manual. Even though I'm never afraid to get my feet…
#Showmaker Feedback?
Message #28894
You mention you are using Broadcast Titler II. I have it two and its anti-aliased fonts look great. The problem is when I want to save a title to an IFF for use with another program (e.g., AmigaVision) I can only save one of them. If I try to save…
Sorry Michael, I haven't heard about this book. If you find out more please let us know. Regards, S.P. from Tokyo
Thanks for your input. Perhaps you can get the ball rolling by describing the Gold Disk program a little to give people an idea of its contents.
Ben, Thanks a million for the input regarding the two books on Arexx programming. Thats just what I needed. Regards, S.P. from Tokyo
Arexx for Beginners
Message #11993
Would someone be kind enough to suggest several book titles on Arexx programming for Amiga Users with little or no programming experience? I would like to know prices and addresses/phone #s, etc. if available. It's becoming clear that Amiga Users are going to have to get their feet wet if…
Showmaker Feedback?
Message #28193
Has anyone actually test driven Gold Disk's new multimedia program called "Showmaker?" I've seen the ads in Amiga World and one of the sales people at Creative Computers in L.A. spoke highly of it? I'd particularly like to know its strengths and weaknesses compared to AmigaVision, Scala and the others.…
Allan, Thanks for your words of encouragement. As I mention in my reply to Steve Bennett, I'll be contacting the GVP people after the holidays since they are the suppliers of the Ricoh unit and have one hooked up to an AT in their office. Perhaps Western Digital will have…
Steve, Thanks very much for the input on the removable drives. I hope that I won't have to abandon my idea of getting my Ricoh unit to work with my Amiga 2000 and XT clone. The only reason I thought I had a good chance of accomplishing this is that…
#Syquest with 2 machines
Message #9911
Sorry to draw you off the track but your comment about hooking up your Syquest unit to another computer caught my eye. I have been using a Ricoh removable unit with my Amiga 2000 with no hitches and have just purchased a Western Digital Faast 7000 controller hoping to hook…
