#prior WUTIL 3.2 upload
5 messages in this thread
I understood your message to mean that you are going to make WUTIL 3.2
available to the DEC PC forum, right?
Willett,
I don't know how to answer your message.
There is *a* version of WUTIL 3.2 that I am going to merge into the
public library very soon now. I don't know if it's 3.2. I have no Rainbow
with which to test it and can't stay up-to-date with the version numbers of
the products I don't use (sorry).
Also I don't know what message you were talking about when you said "I
understood your message to mean…" … if you had REPlied to the message,
I could have looked back, but I have no context in which to figure it out.
Sorry if this message seems "snippy" … that's not what I mean to say,
it's just been a long, long weekend and I'm very, very tired and trying to
catch up on far too much stuff at once…

Sorry for my unclear message. WUTIL 3.2 has now been merged into the
public library, as I had originally expected. I got confused when it
didn't appear, since your prior message could have been read with the
meaning "I can't test it, so I can't make it public". Carl N.'s message
makes the procedure clear to me now. Sorry if I seemed impatient, we
appreciate your support of the fourum!
Willett,
Just checked, and you should find the three WUITL 3.2 files available
now in LIBrary 3. (For those looking on, these files are the latest
version of the Winchester UTILity and work with MS-DOS 3.10b. One of the
files allows slightly faster booting if you have a TURBOW board.)
I'm sorry it took as long as it did, to get those files checked and made
visible to forum users. I'm the one who usually checks Rainbowcompatible
uploads. I had an unusually busy week, and WUTIL required a bit morgo e
looking than most files. (Bill L. has been rvazzing me because I declined
to reformat my haraxd disk to make sure that WUTIL would work.) I difd start
the program up oas well as checking the rutext files and running imt through a
virus-check
er, and it seemed fine, so I passed the word along to the
Bills, and they said the magic words to make the files visible on library
3.

Thanks for the explanation and checkout, Carl. I used it to install a boot
loader under 3.10b, and it worked great (I didn't totally reforamt
either!).
