You wanna use 1.2 and 1.3 forever? That is the same attitude that would land us with the routines only found in 1.0, right? 8^) I sure am glad that CBM keeps adding functions to the ROMs and supporting libraries, and that programmers use them. The *only* downside to this would be if, as some people in FidoNet have come to believe, Commodore decides that the A500 is not a professional machine and will not receive 2.0. I see this as a moot point, because as far as I can see CBM *will* release 2.0 on the 500. -- /// AMIGA: | Steve Palm, Sysop of FidoNet node 1:11/16 /// FOR THE | UUCP: {gatech,ames,rutgers}!ncar!asuvax!stjhmc!myamiga!smp \\\/// CREATIVE | INTERNET: [not yet available] \XX/ MIND |_________________________________________________________
