Re: usbprinter.device problem if printer not turned on

Hypex: can't it be that your USB printer is exposing some other interfaces (scanner?) that Andy's does not ? I don't have a single clue of what I'm saying but just trying to help finding the reason of your printer (mis)behavior... My printer does expose a scanner but if my printer is turned off how...

Re: GadTools STRING_KIND

IIRC HookEntry was in amiga.lib under pre AOS 4, its job was to setup correctly the stack and prepare the function call. Now you don't need it anymore under AOS4 and you can directly set h_Entry to point to dispatchRKMButGad.

Re: Various smaller bugs

I see this differently. The window arrows do not expand the window area - the size gadget does! The arrows (and the scroller) are there to let you scroll and view the window contents that does not fit in the window area. The scroller, then, shows how far beyond you are. If there is no contents beyo...

Re: ScreenBlankerEngine

I have had such situations too where ScreenBlankerEngine refuse to launch even using the hotkeys. However I never noticed it was linked with a crashed app, I'll try to take it with more attention next time.

Re: What I expect on Update3

We have a half-finished draft for a new library to help debugging stuff (basically, a debugger in a shared library) that would be possible to integrate into Grim Reaper. Unfortunately, the actual implementation won't start for some time due to workload and time constraints. That's good news for sur...

Re: What I expect on Update3

gdb and addr2line are developer tools, and completely useless if the binary doesn't contain debug info (which is true for almost any released software), so adding them to anything but the SDK isn't really making much sense :) I already tried many times to explain that to Mrodfr but he does not seem...

Re: AmiFTP French translation

Yep but as the program was included as a contribution I was (erroneously) thinking that maybe someone would have a valid way to contact the author as I was unable to do it since a long time now. Anyway if AmiFTP is to be included in next AmigaOS release don't forget to remove any existing catalog an...
