#running PINQ demo
Hi, I downloaded a demo–(PINQ.LHA from AmigaUser Library 7:
"Applications")–that looks promising, but can't get it to run; all I get is:
"File Not Found". Someday I'm_going_to understand the Amiga system better, but
in the meantime…Help!
The program is called "PINQ demo", the docs only say that the program must be
run from "DF0:". The icon says: "Pinq demo.exe". (both names with the space)
This looks suspiciously like a DOS file.. but it's not, or it would show up as
"PC0:", and it doesn't..
Besides the ".exe" suffix, when I look at the "config.pnq" file (using
DirectoryOpus), in the "PINQ_system" drawer I see a small rectangle at the end
of each line: that's a "carraige return" isn't it? I've seen those markings
from time to time, and when the file is viewed from a text editor the marks
show up as "reversed" white-on-black "M"s that_cannot_be "cut" from the doc in
the usual manner.
Now that I've described what to others must be humorously obvious, 🙂 would
someone please help me understand why these things are only occasionally so?
And of course whether and how I might run this demo. Thanks, Greg Reyna
