#DL to RAM
2 messages in this thread
Betty,
Thanks for your swift reply….but. More stupid questions. OK, I did the
makedir ram stuff and all seemed to work well, the archive unpacked and all.
However I saw no change in the ram window, I clicked ram off and then double
clicked it back on and there was now a drawer labled "change" (I DLed
CHANGE.LHA), but there was nothing in it. I used to have to reboot when I
downloaded before to the hard drive drawer I had named CIS and all was well. I
know if I reboot with ram all will be lost. Are there any more lines in the
CLI that I can evoke to see the program…I tried but kept getting [CLI 4]. Be
patient and gentle.

Bob,
Most programs will have an icon – but not every one. Sometimes you just have
to use the CLI and type
DIR RAM:CHANGE
and you will see a list of the files there. You can then read the doc file –
could be called readme, or xxxx.doc or xxxx.txt or something similar. It will
tell you how to go about using the program. If you downloaded Changes.LHA for
AutoPilot, it is a text file – no icon. Just read it with a reader. You could
type:
RUN ED RAM:CHANGE/filename (changes.lha or whatever.)
and that will load the text file into the editor so you can read it.
