If you've downloaded the program LHARC.EXE from library 5, you can type the command: copy LHARC.EXE DF0:c/LHARC and that will copy the LHARC program to your command directory. You can use it just like any other archiving program. If you're unfamiliar with how to use LHARC (or ARC, ZOO, and…

ImagingUpdate
Message #21288
Do you happen to know if there is a new function in the update that works like the SCULPT "fill"? I really hate having do it with splicing the way Imagine works now. (Or is there an easier way to do it?) Steve
If you take a look at the Baud Bandit documentation, I'm sure there is a section that discusses how to set up the program to upload/download programs using one of the protocols you mentioned (xmodem, ymodem or zmodem). The best one to use here on CompuServe is CIS B+ protocol.…
Actually, it means "full duplex, no parity, 8 bits, 1 stop bit". That should be OK for your set up. I don't remeber which terminal program you are using….which one is it? Steve
In order to view the pictures in that file, you must have a HAM-E device which is sold by Black Belt Systems. They have a section over in AmigaVendor. Steve
For AT&T systems, that is correct. It's the same way on our systems at work. Folks that have used BSD UNIX know that program as "rsh". It's also called "rsh" on the Amiga TCP/IP distribution. (I really hate the fact that they (AT&T) named it that way, but I guess…
Welcome to the AmigaForums! If you have a question, just ask! We'll do our best to answer it. Steve
Martin! I didn't realize you were on CIS. Great to see you here! I agree with you about rsh, and that it runs as it should on the Amiga. I was just pointing out the main difference between rlogin and rsh to Ethan, who was asking about it. I'll drop…
It takes a couple of days to approve files because of the volume of files we have to check. You should be seeing it soon. Steve

You can get them from library 5 here in AmigaUser. LHARC.EXE (for .LZH files), ARC.EXE (for .ARC files), and ZOO.EXE (for .ZOO files) are all there. If you've never used programs like this, you might want to download ARCHLP.EXE. It's a tutorial on how to use those programs. It's also…
I know we're talking about Amiga stuff and not about UNIX. You asked what rlogin and telnet give you that rsh doesn't, so I told you. 🙂 The original rsh program doesn't let you mess with tty's across networks. Like I said, it's easy enough to fix, but no one…
I'd be surprised if the reason that the article was rejected just because it was a negative review. I've written reviews for them before, some of which were negative, and they've all be published. There was probably another reason for it. Steve
UNIX OS itself can be in ROM. It's just it's data structures that have to be modifiable, and those are in RAM. Steve
Yes, we have a diff port. I think it's in the programming utilities library. Steve
That suggestion has already been made, and we'll do our best to get the HAM images uploaded. Unfortunately, some images that we try to convert require a lot of memory and some of us (like me) don't have enough to do the conversions. (Guess 3 MB isn't enough!) So, as…
What are you having problems with? Can you be a little more specific, so we can answer your question? Steve PS. Something to keep in mind: The PRACTICE forum lets you practice downloading files for *free*…no charge. It's a good place to figure out how to download things.

There's a upload in the library that's got a player program named "Flick" and the message that comes up says that it's freely redistributable. Do they have a program named "Flicker" too? Slightly confused…. Steve

The program you're looking for is LHARC.EXE. It's in library 5 of AmigaUser. Steve
After it finishes rendering and you're done viewing it, hit the ESCAPE key. Steve
I haven't looked at the file yet, but if the file is approved, we'll post a notice about it in section 1 of the message base. We do that for all our new uploads. Steve
No, nothing like that. Just info on a special on A3000's, the North American DevCon, and the European Devcon. Steve

Professional Video

You should drop a message to Rick in the Impulse section of AmigaVendor. He works at a cable TV station here in Miami. Also, drop a line in AmigaUser in the Desktop Video section. You'll get some responses there! Steve
Is "Animfill" what the name implies? The ability to fill an object on one screen and have it fill in on all the other screens? If not, what is "Animfill"?
You'll probably have to keep calling that number at various times during working hours in the US. The answering machine may have been activated during lunch time here or after working hours. Keep trying, and good luck!
Here's the address. I found it in AmigaWorld magazine's September 1990 issue: Walt Disney Computer Software Inc. 500 S. Buena Vista St. Burbank, CA 91521 Phone: 818-567-5360
I haven't heard of that program for the Amiga…but perhaps someone else here has. Versions of KickStart refer to versions of the operating system. Since you have an Amiga 500, you should have version 1.3…so you're "safe" if you buy those programs. Steve
Sorry, I don't really know if it would work. Steve

Wow! Everyone else get their developer mailing today? Nice surprises inside….discounts on 3000's! Looks like the DevCon is going to be in Denver too! Steve
Well, you could look at the UNIX documentation, but I don't really recommend it, because the online docs are pretty sparse. There is a book called "LEX & YACC" which is part of the Nutshell series published by O'Reilly and Associates. It not only explains how to use LEX and…
Thanks for the clarification about the logo, and I look forward to seeing that list of stores. Steve
