#BlitzDisk(tm) cache
3 messages in this thread
I wonder if BlitzDisk(tm) will give rise to as many transient 'Disk Unreadable'
errors on my system. I just lost a session due to conflict between Autopoint
(with NoToFront option), DropShadow, and FaccII. I am going to experiment with
Viacom and see if it causes the same sort of sickness; then maybe I can say
'Aha! It is the screen buffering in DropShadow that is to blame.'
Messy Dos has 'referee' products to keep the terminate-stay-resident programs
in line; would it be too much of a confession for AmigaDOS to have the same
thing?
Thomas,
Jim McKracz has proposed a "commodities exchange" that would serve as a
referee for the background tasks, but I don't know what became of it.
unfortunately, these types of programs are ones that should come with the
machine, so that everyone has them and people write programs that use them.
Regards, Larry.
Once again, I wish you luck on finding a way to live with DropShadow and
AutoPoint. Perhaps my bout of "Mousitis" has left me with a anti-Mouse
pro-keyboard mentality. I am very happy cycling my windows and screens using
CHeath's FunKey program, rather than go Keyboard->Mouse->Keyboard->Mouse->etc.
Perhaps I will dig out AutoPoint and "play" with it for a while!
