Thanks Gary, I've been linking with s.lib but the scr_ commands still do not clear screen, beep, clear to eol, or any of the other functions. If you can think of anything else I'd like to know. Thanks again… John 73647,1534

From: John D. Sell The Amiga Forum · Programming November 19, 1987 3:49 PM
Hi all, how can I get the scr_ functions in the Aztec C compiler (vs. 3.4b) to work correctly?? The documentation says the programs must be linked using mixcroot or shcroot?? What and where are they and how do I link to them?? Any help at all would be appreciated.…

From: John D. Sell The Amiga Forum · Programming November 16, 1987 8:02 PM
Hi all… I just picked up a copy of Aztec C and am trying to work with the SCREEN functions (scr_beep, scr_tab, etc) but they don't seem to work for me. I read in the manual (lib68.19) that I need to link with shcroot or mixcroot in order for these…

From: John D. Sell The Amiga Forum · Hardware January 28, 1987 5:06 AM
Hi Larry, No, as yet I have not. I'm trying to get some 3.5 drives to work on the system. I picked up the drives from a place called Halted Specialities for $89 each. The drives are bare (no casing) but it will not be too hard to shove several…
From: John D. Sell The Amiga Forum · Hardware January 27, 1987 7:55 AM
Hi all, I've got the internal upgrade functioning ok. I had the downloads from here describing the upgrade but waited til I got my copy of Amazing before proceeding. Everything went very smoothly but watch how much space you put between your stacked memory chips, the daughter board must sit…

I've picked up an external drive from a company called Halted Specialties. The drive itself is the same drive used in the amiga but the company didn't have any documentation on the drive. Can anyone tell me what the pinouts are for the 34 pin connector on the back of…
TDI-Modula2 Message #44110
From: John D. Sell The Amiga Forum · Hardware December 16, 1986 9:03 PM
