Example programs found in RKM are copyrighted, etc. At the same time, they are considered to be in the public domain and you may freely use these programs, or distribute them. If you redistribute them, you should make sure that the header, attributing these programs to Commodore, is not removed. A quick note about cons.c, this program must be compiled under version 3.03 of the compiler. It does not work under 3.02!!! -- + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Randy Weiner -- Commodore Business Machines <> uucp: {ihnp4|seismo|caip}!cbmvax!randy arpa: cbmvax!randy@seismo (or) randy@cbmvax.UUCP@{seismo | harvard} TEL: 215-431-9180
