    Has anyone read any details of the new keyboard chip that's supposed
to be in the Falcon? Is it just a faster version of the one in the ST 
keyboard?( That'd be my guess, as it would be most compatable).

Ok, I finally give in, could someone please (briefly) tell me what MINT will do
for me (will it run GEM apps? TOS programs etc...), where I can get the latest 
version, and what problems does it have.

Thanks!

    Several things of note here. One of the original posters who had
problems,  had a Mega STe. As 11 sector formatting is often a problem at
16mhz, the first thing to try would be to step the chip down to 8. 
Also, zooing the directory tree is only easier for hard drive users. A
third thing to note is that msa 1.41 is a hacked version, as the
original author stopped at 1.39, I belive.
    If chaos is this good, though,, I'll have to grab a copy. Does it run off
the hard drive?

There _is_ an economic reason.

Adding a new product to your line is not cost free. As well as the cost of
the translation (and the cost of administering the translation), you've got
the cost of printing up manuals, duplicating media etc.

Then you've got to inform everyone in your company about the new product,
and train your support staff. Then there's the cost of maintaining the
compiler, managing updates etc. etc.

I work for a company that writes and sells Ada compilers, and this is the
sort of thing we have to think about before porting the compiler to a new
target machine / OS (even if someone else pays for the port).

I doubt that MultiTOS is really going to make the GCC the most popular
compiler, because it takes a lot of memory and such. Pure C will be far more
convenient, both more convenient than GCC and more convenient than the way it
works now: in the future you will be able to use your own editor without any
problems (as long as you don't mix with the built-in editor).

You can multitask any number of TOS/TTP programs, plus 1 GEM program.
(The 1 GEM program restriction will, obviously, be lifted in Atari's
MultiTOS.)

PowerDOS claims to be able to multitask the same as MiNT, i.e. any
number of TOS/TTP, plus 1 GEM. However, from the slew of "I can't
get programs to multitask under PowerDOS" messages appearing on GEnie,
I gather this is extremely difficult to achieve in practice and
involves grovelling through the configuration file.

MiNT 0.95 is easy to set up; you copy mint.prg to the AUTO folder,
and then (if you want to make multitasking really easy for yourself)
you copy TOSWIN.ACC and TOSWIN.RSC to the root directory of your drive.
Then you reboot. To run a TOS/TTP program in the background, you
select "TOS Programs" from the desk accessory menu; a file selector
will come up, you select the program you want to run, and TOSWIN will
open up a new window with the program running in it.

If you're comfortable with CLIs, you could instead download MiNT aware
CLI's like tcsh and bash and use the Unix notation for multitasking
(e.g. "foo &" runs the program "foo" in the background).

I haven't got the archiver (msa_141.lzh) to work either.
It loads OK, but when I try to unpack the chaos1 (2).msa it screws up the disk I 
am unpacking to.
BTW I did *exactly* what the docs said to do and even some guesses!

MGIF doesn't use any floating point math whatsoever.
As an example, the blur function:

int blur (uchar_t *pras, int w, int h, uchar_t *ptrans)
{
   uchar_t *pr;
   uchar_t *pt;
   long x;
   long y;
   uchar_t *ps;

   pr = pras;
   pt = ptrans;
   if (pras != ptrans) {
      copyrast (pr, w, h, pt);
   }
   ps = pt;
   for (y = 1; y < h-1; y++) {
      for (x = 1; x < w-1; x++) {
         ps[(y*w) + x] = (uchar_t) (
            ( (uint_t) ps[(y-1)*w + (x-1)]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y-1)*w + (x  )]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y-1)*w + (x+1)]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y  )*w + (x-1)]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y  )*w + (x  )]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y  )*w + (x+1)]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y+1)*w + (x-1)]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y+1)*w + (x  )]
            + (uint_t) ps[(y+1)*w + (x+1)]) / 9);
      }
   }
   return (1);
}

As you can see this is pure integer math, but still the code produced by GCC
is faster by a factor of six over that by TurboC.
This is all due to TurboC's inability to optimize the array index calculations.
TC actually computes nine multiplications within the loop above. Since the loop
runs (263-2)*(394-2)=102312 times and y is declared long, this adds up to quite
a few calls to the multiplication routines.

Regarding register parameters in GCC, someone posted patches to Minix GCC 1.40
for this last year (I think), but I don't think it's been included in the
normal GCC. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.

Once again, Mr. Kovarski has been spouting off about things he doesn't know
about.  The Atari ABC clone line originally started back in 1987 - shortly
after that, they were discountinued, and sold abroad.  More recently, Atari
introduced a new ABC line with a 386SX, a 40Mhz 386, and a 386Notebook -
these were also sold in America, but for a much longer time period.  I have
heard rumors that they have been discountinued, but i could buy one anytime
I wanted to - they really have a nice case.  At any rate, Atari has no say
in the manufacture and design of these computers - a manufacturer pays
Atari to use it's name......

    Check out init9akp.zoo in the Mint directory on atari.archive. It has
    both history and filename completion.  It's essentially mintshell with
    the other stuff added in.

Acc's are very easy, believe it or not. Get a program you like to
work as a regular GEM program. Add the capability to accept an AC_OPEN,
and AC_CLOSE message, and NEVER EXIT THE PROGRAM. 

AC_OPEN  means you can now open your window. Someone selected your
         program from the DA menu.
AC_CLOSE means you must now close your window, Something else is
         about to run. 

These messages are received via the "message pipe"

To review documentation get a developer's kit, the Mark Williams C lexicon,
the Lattice C Users manual, or the Abacus Gem Programmers book.

Your code compiles fine with Comeau C++ 3.0 With Templates.
An quick eye scan reveals nothing wrong to me either (although you
are better off not using "\n", but instead '\n' or endl).
