Subject:      GCC problems, please read if you have GCC

Well I have the 2.0 includes installed properly, but for some reason
when GCC goes to link it complains:
   undefined symbol _GadToolsBase referenced ...etc
   undefined symbol _IntuitionBase referenced ...etc
   ..these are referenced from my libamiga.a, created from amiga.lib.

Oh, it did compile a 1.3 program fine (graphics)...any ideas?
 (amiga.lib is for V37):

Paul

p.s. yes, I did do the hunk2gcc, ar qc libamiga.a #?.obj, ranlib libamiga.a.

Ah,
   I've seen ads for Apple Macintrash on prime time TV and during the superbowl
for the last I don't know many years..... In fact I've seen one every other day
on TV for the last semester.  Apple does advertise a lot on TV.  Commodore
can't afford thois grand a scale, but it can advertise a little on TV.

It would pay for Commodore to advertise even once in a whgile on TV.  When it
did a few years ago people actaully started to say what's this Amiga
machine.....

I know this for a fact as friends have said what ever happened to that
Commodore machine ah, the Amiga I saw advertised on TV?

-Nyle

P.S. I love Commodore and the 2-4 page ads in the Mags are great.  How about a
few Ads on TV created on the Amiga none the less.  Just a few, butrun them
every once in a while.  Even non prime time.  Trust me news spreads fast.

Would any one like to send me any relevant hardware info regarding all the

Please reply direct.

Check out Questronix's $25 C=64 emulator on the Amiga.  I'm pretty sure it has
a feature like this.  It's inexpensive and nearly 100% compatible.  It is
phenominal from what I have seen and read, much unlike it's other older
counterparts which did not really emulate a C=64.

-Nyle

P.S. Highly recommended.  IMHO.

A while back I remember getting a program that displayed star fields of

shareware and I don't remember where I ftp'd it from but I seem to have
lost it somehow and I can't remember what the name of it was.  Can
anyone help me out with it's name and/or location?  I can remember
playing around with it and I thought it looked interesting but I did not

 Firstly, I have to thank for all those who have sent help messies
for me to get hold of the archivers.. I managed to get a great
number of them..

 This time I've two more things to ask about; ....

   First one is with the modems... I wanna buy a modem for my old
friend A500. But don't know much about 'em.  And some ppl sell them
for ULTRA-high prices.. Would ya please let me know how much does
a modem cost out there, but moreover I want to learn WHAT SHOULD
BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION AS A BASE WHILE LOOKIN' FOR A MODEM
FOR THE AMIGA (( other than PRICE ))...  Are ALL the modems
compatible with Amiga, if not, which brands should I be looking for.
I found a cheap FAX-MODEM but don't know if it would fit Amiga.

  Secondly,, I'll start  to learn C but as in our department Intel
chip-ed machines are used in teaching, what I'll learn should be
C++ or Turbo C or shortly any B**LAND C. On the other hand, I also
wanna study C on my amiga (as I don't have an I*M at home and lot of
spare time to spend at school), I am looking for a C pack close to
it. Is there anything like I am looking for on FTP ?

   Thanx for your time ..  ALL Giga Best, dReKuSh of ImPulSe

I would like to run some programs, using the supplied icon, from a parent

types and know that I can have an icon in one drawer run a program from a
different drawer using a script file, but there must be a better way.

Anyone out there doing what I'm describing?  Specifically, I want to open
my games drawer and have all of the different game icons show up but
still keep each game in it's own directory.

Any help appreciated!

Awhile back I downloaded a file called scsitape.lzh from either GEnie or
a local bulletin board.  It had drivers for scsi tape drives and a
version of tar which works great for exchanging tapes between my Amiga
and the Suns at work.  I also found that GNUtar works good also using
the driver in scsitape.lzh.  Take a look for that archive and if you
can't find it I can see if I have the full complete archive stored
somewhere.  I know I have it installed on my system but I don't know if
sending you just the pieces I installed would violate any conditions
that the author put in the archive.  I don't think I have the docs
anymore unless I can find the original archive.

Subject:      Is there anybody out there?

Everyone,
   I am writing a program with a dynamically sized graphic-user interface. That
is , it adjusts the size and placement of buttons with respect to the
resolution of the screen.  Unfortunately, the real important aspect of this
program is that is must work on a silicon graphics workstation with a screen
size of resolution of 1024 x 768.  Well, I don't have an AGA machine (A2000 w 2
meg chip/ 8meg fast and the ecs chipset) so I can't get all those nifty
resolutions.  However, I can get a SUPERHIRES INTERLACED PAL screen to test out
the user interface which has a resolution of 1280 x 512.  This is close enough
for government work.  How do I open a screen in SUPERHIRES, and furthermore,
PAL???????? My current statement looks like this:

   #define MAXHEIGHT 400
   #define MAXWIDTH 640
   #define MODE HIRES|LACE

   name="SGP";
   screen = (struct Screen *)
      make_screen(0,MAXWIDTH,MAXHEIGHT,2,0x00,0x01,MODE,name);

   name="SGPwindow";
   window = (struct Window *)
      make_window(0,0,MAXWIDTH,MAXHEIGHT,name,flags,NULL,0x00,0x01,screen);

Note that I've written my own routines make_window & screen to use the
OpenWindow and OpenScreen intuition commands.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Somene may have replied already to this one, but here goes.
Yes , IDE controller built in..... And the 2.5" can be mounted internally.
The last I checked the 2.5" drives were a bit more expensive since they were
originally used for LapTops... :>   But you should check that out in any
catalog.

Queen of Swords,
    Why do so many people jump to the conclusion that everything you say
is pirate-motivated?  If you REREAD the man's question instead of jumping
to conclusion, you'll notice he asked if there was an UPDATE to the
software on FTP somewhere.  THIS IS A COMMON PRACTICE FOR MANY COMPANIES:
They make patches which update your current software.  YOU HAVE TO HAVE
THE ORIGINAL FOR IT TO WORK.
    Go ahead an tell all of the companies from which you bought software
NOT to put their updates on ftp (eg. ProWrite's many updates) and see how
happy you'll make them.  It makes it much easier for them.  Not to mention
the users.  IT IS NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT
PIRATING.
    YES, this IS a FLAME!  I'm sick and tired of people jumping to the
conclusion that every mention of such a thing is pirate-related, especially
when it's obvious that the person has not taken the time to simply reread
the letter in the first place.  People like that must be who decides what
gets ported to the Amiga from the IBM...."nope, we can't do an Amiga port
because every other message on amiga-lists mentions getting software updates
via ftp....they must all of course be talking about pirating it"

They kind of did didn't they?  I thought A500s were given away as prizes
