INFO.LIBRARY is missing from the LIBS: direcotry on that disk. Simply copy one from another disk (i.e., COPY DF1:LIBS/INFO.LIBRARY DF0:LIBS) Then it will work.

Unfortunately (sorry to butt in) but MS supports ONLY Epson compatible printers. This is a MAJOR drawback to the program – it is a shame that they would port the program without adding Amiga support.

Call Digital Creations (the Gizmoz people – they advertise everywhere). They have a P351C driver. By the way, how much did you pay for your 351 C? I hear they are very expenive. (That's expensive!!)

#19008 Software modem? Message #19138
From: Mark Weddell Forum unknown · Programming May 17, 1986 7:34 AM
Just a comment about your comment about Online!. It does NOT take 10 seconds to "load" the phone menu. I might take that long if your CD is the root of a full disk. When I run Online!, my cd points to a PHONE (dir) and the three files there…

#14607- Scribble! by MSS Message #14674
From: Mark Weddell Forum unknown · Utilities/Other Aps April 13, 1986 6:05 PM
David: I have to disagree with you on almost every point you made. I beta-tested Scribble! for MSS and have found it to be a very good word-processor. (I have extensive experience in the word-processing field including many hours of instruction.) Now I can't say anything about the 'virtual' file-handling…

Just two notes: The Ranger (son of Amiga, etc) has been unofficially announced; it will be a 68020 machine with (I think these #'s are right) 1024 x 1024 resolution. My latest info is that it WILL run A-1000 software.

#12107- #Amiga Price reduction Message #12220
From: Mark Weddell The Amiga Forum · Forum Business March 21, 1986 12:34 AM
Bela: I am a dealer, and believe me, it's true. Amiga $795 with the purchase of a $495 1080 Monitor (or a free monitor w/each Amiga.) That's great!! For end users…but what do we dealers say to those who have recently made their full-price purchases? Any suggestions? Mark Weddell
#National Boycott Message #11956
From: Mark Weddell The Amiga Forum · Amiga at Work March 19, 1986 12:21 AM
To All Amiga Retailers, Developers and Owners: Something extremely important has come to my attention, and I feel duty bound to bring it to everyone's attention, and ask eveyone's help. Electronic Arts, a software publisher of some renown, has decided not to remove copy protection from their Amiga productivity software.…

Did you name them on disk with an extension of ".BAS"? ABasiC requires that extension to be present.

From: Mark Weddell The Commodore Forum · The Amiga from CBM November 14, 1985 11:25 PM
First of all, for the sake of clarity, you really should have this question in SS2, reserved for the 128. But nevertheles…. I have moved out many 1571's to people who use them as a second drive with their old 1541's. No reports of problems. I personally use 2 1571's…
