Re: Simple way to display a notification?

I think the simplest method would be the "TimedDosRequester" function. Check it out in the DOS autodoc.

Re: ESC, ENTER or HELP key used to enter text in Reaction string gadget



Also I would like to know if any other keys were held down such as CTRL, ALT and SHIFT buttons.



I don't know if it will do what you want but you could search for the " peekqualifier() " function in the SDK autodocs. The "devices/inputevent.h" file lists the qualifier definitions.

Re: Preparing a SSD disk with the correct geometry


Sigh... You seem to have the obsession to answer all questions here, even if you don't have the knowledge about the matter! IMO It would then be better to leave answering for those who really know about the subject at hands. There is already enough 'nonsense-information' all around...

I would ...

Re: sii3114ide.device


What do I have to do to load the sii3114ide.device so that the available drives attached to it do show up?

Just to be more explicit about trgswe's suggestion, you can try this:
Connect the hard-disk to your sii3114ide card before turning on the computer. Copy Mounter from SYS:System to ram: and ...

Re: Bug in shell/cli/console


Ouch ... noted.

For your convenience here is a short AmigaDOS script that will list (to a file in ram:) the C: files that have no English help files:

;Script docomp

FOREACH NAME file IN `list SORT N C: LFORMAT "C:%N"`
IF NOT EXISTS SYS:Locale/Help/english/Shell/${file}.help

Re: Bug in shell/cli/console


Sligtly OT, I know, but why don't you just do "help assign"?

Because I was testing if the more command produced the same error reported in this topic for lha in a shell. I normally don't use more for anything. Besides, the help files haven't been kept up to date with all the commands in the OS4 ...

Re: Bug in shell/cli/console


@xenic

What c commands were giving you problems?
And what were your command to make them appear flawed?

I plan to do some more testing once I'm back home.

As far as I can tell all the SYS:Documentation/C/ command docs have a formfeed near the beginning and at the end of the doc. The ^L ...

Re: Bug in shell/cli/console

I tested your procedure using the "more" command to read a text file and did not see the extra characters that appear with "lha". However, when I display one of the C: command documentation files with the more command I do see some extra characters ( ^L ) where there are formfeed control codes in ...

Re: microA1 Serial port(s)


So in regards to, that the build in serial port was somehow a serial-usb-style interface, i think a "real" RS-232C port on computer is needed to actually receive something from the amiga. But nevertheless i can confirm that the on board serial port of the microA1 is working. I still need to find ...

Re: Turbotext problem with OS4FEupdate2


If it really does run out of stack with the system default stack, try raising the system default stack and see if that helps. Maybe Turbotext is using more stack than expected for the search operations, possibly specifically when running under 68k emulation?

Ranger shows Turbotext using about 15 ...
