#Opus Upgrade
Just got Opus 5.0 (not an upgrade, first-time user, though I've worked with
Opus 4.0 a bit on other machines). I'm running it under WB 3.1 on an ECS, '030
Amiga and am impressed with the concept and much of what it does. However:
1. You're right. There's some kind of bug with the function commands, though I
haven't diagnosed a pattern. I can read texts, I can play sounds, I can
de-lharc files. It is only intermittently (seldom at that) successful showing
IFFs or JPEGs or GIFs, even though I (apparently) have set up the Filetypes
properly and also have system Datatypes for each. I can see such pictures
using, say, Viewtek. This may partly be a bug in my system or an ECS/3.1
problem, since system datatypes for JPEGs and GIFs seldom work, either.
2. I can get Opus 5.0 to lock up, requiring a soft reboot, by trying to
internally multitask — e.g., trying to reposition a disk icon while a file
list is busy opening. This has happened several times in my first day of use.
