 Hi netters,

 A few time ago (January '91), I wrote a .PRG that allows
screen dumps on 24 pin printers, thus using the usual
Alt-Help keys. This was is the good ol' days... on my Mega
ST1 (running TOS 1.2).

 But this .PGR refuses to work on my brand new Mega STE/4.

 I fixed it by using Gemdos calls instead of BIOS calls.
Of course, it's slower now.

 So here's my question:
- Why, under supervisor mode, will TOS 2.05 not execute
  Bcostat(0) nor Bconout(0,c)?

 Thanks for you reply.
