I am just sick and tired of how unreliable the bugs are in MM/1 windows.
|
||
|
|
As far as I am concerned, the author, (I know who, but will try and
|
||
|
|
protect the guilty), anyway, the author has apparently included some
|
||
|
|
hybrid dynamic bug generating routine that is based on current clock
|
||
|
|
cycles or something.
|
||
|
|
I have been trying to work with display 1b codes, and the results are so
|
||
|
|
unpredicatable and so varying, that I am about ready to ditch my MM/1.
|
||
|
|
I don't even have to recompile my program, and the results of what the
|
||
|
|
1b codes do changes. This is COMPLETE CRAP!!!!!.
|
||
|
|
Someone really needs to get the source code from the author and FIX
|
||
|
|
THESE DANG BUGS, or force him to. I think there would be more
|
||
|
|
development for the MM/1, if we had a reliable semi-bug-free window
|
||
|
|
environment.

Warren,
|

|
|
|
||
|

You and Al Dages should find a short update on OSTerm 68K arriving by netmail
|
||
|
|
in the next day or so.

WH> what Kved uses seems to be hardcoded in. (Colours)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Yup, KVed's colours are hard coded in, as is the font it uses. However, the
|
||
|
|
colours chosen, and the font used, represent many days and weeks of use, both
|
||
|
|
by OS-9 Users, and by non-OS-9 Users. They represent a good colourset for
|
||
|
|
working for long periods of time, while still allowing the menus to have
|
||
|
|
a distinctive appearance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The font give you the additional symbols, such as the carriage return markers,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the block markers and so on.
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
TTYL. Colin.

|

Yes that should help, I think I heard such a port is in the works though
|
||
|
|
I don't use an mm1 myself.I have an Atari ST with OSK, been down a bit
|
||
|
|
as the hard drive got partially wiped so I left it alone whilst I put my
|
||
|
|
coco3 in a mintower and put nitros9 on the system, nice.
|
||
|
|
I am now threatening to get back to the ST for a bit and lick it back
|
||
|
|
into shape and leave the coco for a while.
|
||
|
|
Ah well!!

Clyde, we now have strong prospects for an alternative supplier. I am
|
||
|
|
very close to taking over the assets of IMS. Paul is working, and I am
|
||
|
|
helping him, on getting board sets to fill all outstanding orders.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I have in the last week contacted Incor and Microware regarding MM/1
|
||
|
|
hardware and OSK licensing respectively. I think we'll see a done deal
|
||
|
|
by the end of November.

Hello all. I've gotten my soundless I/O board back and reinstalled it in the
|
||
|
|
'Ol MM/1 and decided to play with it. While messing with some coco OS9 C code
|
||
|
|
the compiler burped an error about a reference to rand and srand of the
|
||
|
|
Kreider library. The question is, are these functions or similar ones in the
|
||
|
|
MM/1 library? If this sounds like a stupid question then sorry but bear in
|
||
|
|
mind that it comes from a manual-less non-programmer. Thanks...
|
