I'm starving…. I just purchased an Amiga a few weeks ago and have been able to do very little with it. There is no documentation available anywhere around here and the manual provided gives just enough info to aggravate me to the max. I just acquired a 300 baud RS-232 modem so I could download the PUBLIC DOMAIN software here. But…here I am with my C-64 sitting next to a dormant Amiga typing away… Here's what I'd like to ask: 1) How can I convert a sequential file downloaded on my C-64 to a program file on the Amiga (I have been able to link the two together). I figure once I get one decent Terminal program downloaded to my Amiga that supports some standard compuserve protocall, I'll be OK. 2) I've written several Abasic programs using the existing docs but I don't no a thing about CLI. How does one view the directory of SAVED Abasic programs on disk? I've tried trial and error and am to frustrated to continue. 3) How do you put an Abasic program from one disk to another. 4) Are there more Abasic commands that I don't know about. Surely my above requests can be accomplished as direct commands within Abasic. I thank anyone with answers or hints to these questions. As I stated earlier, I'm starving for info…… Ron
