Three important questions in re. WB 2.0: 1.) Does WSHELL work? I'd expect it to depend heavily on DOS internals, and I understand that there have been some significant changes there. Does this break WSHELL? 2.) I was playing around with my dealer's 3000 and I noticed that there didn't seem to be a lot of improvement in the AmigaDOS shell. It still didn't support '|' piping. Is this likely to be implemented in a later version? I never could understand why C/A didn't support it from the start. (Built-in AREXX support in the C/A default shell would also be nice, no matter what it does to Bill's market 😉 3.) Have they fixed the Workbench duplicate? It never seems to matter HOW small a file I have, or HOW much memory I have, doing a duplicate from the workbench uses all but 30k of RAM, and crashes about once in ten times. Not A Good Thing.
