#Turbotext and You…
5 messages in this thread
Curious,
Has anyone been able to path SAS/C 5.10b to use Turbotext? The turbotext
patch operation works ok, except for an error that TurboText always seems
to give me when it wants to save a backup, but the lc image has a bad hunk
after the patching.
When turbotext wants to do a backup it wants to write it in the
':T/filename', where filename is the name of my file with a .bak
concatenated to the end. I do have a T: in RAM just like all good 2.0
systems have. Has anyone run into this and what was your solution?

Sorry, Mark, but I don't have any real experience with TurboText. It's not
our product.
Oops!
I meant to send it to Oxxi, and they are only just arriving to CIS and even
then I am not sure it is official.

Mark,
':T/filename' says write to 'filename' in the 'T' directory on the
current disk. 'T:filename' says write to 'filename' in the currently
assigned 'T' directory. If your 'T:' directory is assigned to ram: and
your current directory is DH0: ':T/filename' is trying to write to
'DH0:T/filename'. This may not be what you want.

Mark, Look at your .bak file destination string. If it truly is
':T/filename', the reason it fails is that most likely you are in LC: or a
subdirectory.
I believe the .bak location it is looking for is LC:T/filename based on
the destination string you gave above. If you go into the turboText
configuration file and set the .bak destination to 'T:filename' it will go
to T:
