I suspect that the prediction made to me by Bryce Nesbitt a little more than a month after he joined Commodore (``You know, we'll have to break the way the RRD allocates memory someday'') has finally come to pass. However, please make sure that you weren't running the 2K version of the RRD which was NOT WRITTEN BY US and is known to be much less understanding of wierd memory types than our version. The 2K version was an unauthorised dissassembly and ``optimization'' of my original C code. While it was a good effort, some new ``features'' have evidently crept it. If in doubt - seek Fish Disk 59. pk Also, the RRD is completely PD now - don't send me anymore money! :-) -- Perry Kivolowitz, ASDG Inc. ``We look for things. Things that make us go.''
