IMSD, Westlake Village, CA Lines: 16 --- Thanks to the four people who took the time to send me a copy of the source to PUTMSG, a macro calling KPutFmt. The Amigans here are an exceptional group of very considerate folks. Ah, but I do have 'yet another rub'.... PUTMSG calls a macro 'STRINGR' which is undefined. I substituted DC.B for STRINGR and all seemed OK. Secondly, the RKM description of KPutFmt does not explain the syntax of the format string --- it is said that is is similar to K&R's printf(). By experiment, I know that \n doesn't work. If you look at KPutFmt in the RKM, you'll see that someone forgot a paragraph explaining this.
