Hi,

Does anyone know of a driver for a DeskJet 500c printer which can take
advantage of the printers color capabilities?

Actually, Dan, I was struck by a flush of inarticularity.  The concern you've
raised is the one I was shooting at.  I think you are likely correct that in
addition to knowing the recipient's GEnie mail address, they must also have
signed up for the "port."  The question which remains in both our minds is
whether we would pay for unsolicited transmissions, i.e., bulk mail.

Hi netriders
I gotta some questions for ya

At the list there were written that AGA chipset has 8 bit sound.
In polish issue of Amiga Magazin I read that it has 16 bit sound.
What do you think about it?

Are there somewhere at the net lists for Amiga programmers who use Kickstart ?
I know lists for Turbo Pascal programmers and I'm looking for sth like for
Amiga.

Third and last question is especially to polish subscribers, but maybe others
may know it too : what  is the address & phone for Commodore-Poland ?

This is actually a common bug that surfaces on unaccelerated (ie 68000) Amigas. 
It's an application bug.  Commodore has added yet another kludge to 2.0 that's
in the 2.05 SetPatch that will trap for this error and do the right thing.  I
suggest that you contact a dealer to get this new SetPatch.  The 2.04 SetPatch
is version 37.10 - I'm currently running SetPatch 37.28.

Hey I know this one.  Arj is a relatively new compression program on the block.
I use it on my PC exclusively now.  It compresses more than PKzip (Versions
I've used) and is almost as fast.  The great thing I have found with ARJ is
it's use of multiply flopppy volumes.  That's right unlike the versions of
PKzip that I have used that state "Disk Full" and then terminate, ARJ asks you
to insert a new disk to continue the backup on.  ARJ will also allow you to
easily seperate a large amount of information in to specific size archives.

Example : Say you want 720k archives of 8 megs of program with subdirs recursed
you simply say.
    arj a -r -v720 <Archive name> *.*

The Author of ARJ is Robert K. Jung.  I'll look up his e-mail adress and mail
it to the list in a bit.  I'm not sure if there is an Amiga version of ARJ or
how well it compares to other techniques available on the AMIGA, but I would
love to see one.  I believe a friend of mine has the source code for ARJ, and
Robert Jung snet it to him.  Hold on I'll be right back......... beep.

Subject:      diskdoubler for amiga?

is there a program (preferably PD) that allows you to compress a hard disk,
but still use it?  Mushintosh computers have a program called autodiskdoubler
that doubles hard drive space by compressing files, but still allowing you to
access these files with your programs.  It works in the background, and is
said to eual or surpass regular access times ( in other words, it won't slow
down your computer because it is decompressing a file )

is there anything out there?  I've got a 40meg HD that's rapidly filling up
and I need somethin to tide me over until I can get a 4000

        If you are short of place, try to use the pre-compiled headers, which
take less room on the disk.  All you have to do is tell DICE that you use them

Amiga hardware (68030 and above) may support virtual memory, but AmigaDos
does not.  The 68010 and 68020 support external memory management units,
where the 68030 and 68040 have them internally.  I know of no 68020
upgrade which comes with an mmu.

>2. How do the Angus etc. custom chips interface with the 68030 in A3000?

You might want to sign up to Ami-hard@umainecs (via listserv) and read there.
That is the echo of comp.sys.amiga.hardware usenet newsgroup, and the
current designers of Amiga systems post there regularly, answering just
this sort of question.

The question you ask is kind of vague.  Through the chip bus, controlled
by BUSTER custom chip.

It depends on what language you are writing in.  Most all C compilers support
a unix stream type of interface to the system, and in that case the handlers
would be the same.  As programming environments, the MAC os and the Amiga
OS are very different environments, AmigaDos supporting pre-emptive
multitasking, re-entrant shareable libraries, and a user interface which
can be as much mouse pushing or keyboard tapping as desired.

the gcc is probably the GNU C++  release for the Amiga, which is object
oriented.

PowerVisor 1.42 should start to appear on FTP sites from now on. This version
is greatly improved (many new features, faster in several areas, and many
bug fixes).

What's flaky about the conditional breakpoints? If you please have some
more detailed information. It is possible that the problem is solved because
I fixed a lot of bugs in the debug routines. There were some severe bugs
for the AmigaDOS 1.3 version of PowerVisor and for PowerVisor on the 68000.
These bugs are all fixed. If you use 1.3 and/or you have an 68000 I think all
your problems should be solved.
