You have to *buy* this. It's called "1.3 Enhancer Kit". >Best regards, Dr. Peter Kittel // E-Mail to \\ Only my personal opinions... >Commodore Frankfurt, Germany \X/ {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!cbmger!peterk Excuse me if I am confused, but when I purchased the "1.3 Enhancer Kit", I got 1.3 flat, not 1.3.2. The latter was an incremental patch of some sort distributed as freeware by someone from Commodore. I believe this patch did contain a copyright notice specifying permission to redistribute, under very reasonable conditions. Certainly one is required to *buy* 1.3 before the 1.3.2 patch can be applied; I don't think the original poster meant to imply otherwise. I think I got my copy off PeopleLink's Amiga Zone.
