	In the current WB 2.04, look at the first menu from the
Workbench. It should say "   Backdrop", with a space before it.
If there is a check mark there, it is like WB 1.3. Without the
checkmark, it is in a window. Then you have to do a Snapshot ALL
from the next menu.

	In older WB 2.03, you have to find a preferences program
about the Workbench that has only two options; one is for 
backdrops, and the other is for click-to-front.

The kickfile for the A3000 is in the longword format.  You need the
development version (shortword format) for other Amigas with Zkick.

I don't think you can obtain any kickfile from the net.  You have to become
an Amiga developer.

Well, its a "newer" version of lharc, called lz.  Its MUCH better as far
as compression goes.  LZ will handle all lower formats.

Sounds like you're using an earlier version of Workbench, Bob.  The WBConfig
prefs editor was removed prior to 2.04, and its functions were incorporated
into the Workbench menus.

To snapshot the Workbench window's state (bordered vs. backdrop), select which
mode you want, then choose "Snapshot->Window" or "Snapshot->All" from the
"Window" menu.

a trial period you will have to pay the share-fee... All details are in the

On ab20, look in "incoming/amiga/". The file is called LhA_E122.run - it's
a self-extracting archive. To extract, just type the filename from the shell.

How about this.  Put all of your .ZOO files into RAM:.  CD do the disk

I already have done, but here we go again ...

	'Lattice C' v3.03 is available from:

                3 Amigos
                16 Marsett Way
                Leeds LS14 2DN

                Tel: (0532) 733043

                Disk number: U1000

	Presumably it comes with the include files because it was a 
commercial product marketed by a registered developer, which has now 
been placed in the public domain due to subsequent versions being released
(current version is 5, I believe). I could be wrong, of course :-) But
the include files are definitely there - I bought a copy myself.

The A300 file is a true kickstart file. The kickfile is distributed to
developers, and should not be available to anyone other than that, and should
definately not be available from the net.

There are several archivers you can use : LhArc, LZ, LhA

Go to the disk you want to send the files to, then specify the full path to
the original file, like this:

CD DF1:       ;Or whatever the name of the disk you want to extract to is
ZOO x DF0:foo.zoo  ;Or whatever disk/directory the original file is on.

I had loads of mail about this, so I'm just posting this
standard reply to everyone (and this newsgroup!).

	'Lattice C' v3.03 is available from:

		3 Amigos
		16 Marsett Way
		Leeds LS14 2DN
		UK

		Tel: (0532) 733043

		Disk number: U1000

	Their current ad isn't very clear, but the price appears
to be 85p plus the following postage & packing rates:

		UK	85p
		Europe	1.50 sterling
		World	2.50 sterling

	It would be useful to check these on the phone first, though.
As I said in my original posting, it comes with all the 1.3 include
files and a linker. Unfortunately, there isn't any documentation to
speak of (other than how to go about compiling a program), so you'll
have to try and glean the Lattice-specifics from some other source. Of
course, if you're intending to write portable code, that won't matter
anyway :-)

Guess you also switched to V1.3 to boot from your HD?
It's a known bug in v1.3, it sometimes will just boot up in NTSC.
No harm done, just reset

Ah! this is a problem EVERY new HD user will have had sometimes.
Just write something to your HD and wait app. 5 secs...you'll see it writing!
AmigaDOS waits 5 secs after the last write before updating the buffers,
so when you reset just after you've written something to disk, you'll cause
an unvalidated HD, so the disk-validator will load.
Just have patience or use v2.04.

This is easy.  Call CATS, give them your developer number and ask them.  
Works like a charm.

Because the one from the 3000 only works on a 3000.  Yes, you do.  No, 
you can't.  Yes, CATS (see above).

No problem.

LZ is _definitely_ the faster one.  I have noticed significant speed
increases using it--and no CRC check problems!

It will handle .lzh *and* .lha !!!!
