MSC Version 6.00 on the PC with optimization handles them very differently. It takes about 6 additional instructions to do the array indexing over the pointer based addressing with that compiler, and since I'm attempting to write a multi-term terminal emulator, on a lookup like that, it's going to be…
Thanks for the response… 1. Another question: Can we say temp = &(Emulate->StringDesc + i); and avoid the subscript evaluation? Although I'm not using the Manx compiler (and not writing for the Amiga) from what I've seen, most compilers do a much better job with pointer arithmetic than with subscript…
The code works, but I'd like to change it from subscript-based to pointer-based addressing eliminating the [i]'s. I've tried several ways, but I don't get the hang of it. I'm just learning pointer processing and don't know how to use the pointer addressing to address the i'th occurrence of my…

Yup, I had filled an ST251 to within 700K of the limit. I think on this beast that WORM is the answer.

Got it figgered out, thanks. 73… George
I got it. Thanks to suggestions from you and Don Curtis. I don't have drive specs, but the automatic allocations from PREP can be worked backwards. Here's how… Info on the first (automatic) partition shows 98988 blocks (82326 in use, 16662 free). There are also 2 reserved blocks on the…
That's the ticket. But instead of 17 blocks per track, this thing gets 19. I don't have any info on the drive but info shows 82326 blocks in use and 16662 blocks free on the device for a total of 98988. Two blocks are reserved at the beginning of the…
#Help! with Quantum Q280
Message #124618
Ben, if my memory serves me correctly, you have some experience with a Quantum Q280 disk drive. I have one installed on a C= 2090 controller and I have the first partition working but not the second. Have you any idea how to specify the Q280 to hddisk.device in the…
Thanks for this, Ben. I had requested something similar from Bill for a project I am working on. I assume he knows of its existence?
That's all well, Don. Here's the problem… I don't know how to describe the Q280 (having no papers) to AmigaDos via the MountList. Since PREP takes care of the first (RES2) and the second (DH2) auto-magically, I don't really care how they are described. I told PREP that my first…

I have a Quantum Q280 to replace a Seagate ST251 on my A2000. The Quantum has a SCSI interface and the Seagate an ST506. I have the first partition setup and formatted properly (47Mb) but I can't get the second partition to format. I don't have any information about setting…
