Hi,
Has anyone used the OpenResource() function?  Did you notice that there
is no corresponding CloseResource() function?  I am currently using the
CloseLibrary() function in its place since the RKM has the
OpenResource() function returning a pointer to a library structure.
Precisely what does the open command do?

When using the disk.resource, none of the functions listed in the
resource section of the RKM are available (ex. AllocUnit()).  They all
come up as unresolved externals.  When you allocate the disk resource,
is the cia resource automatically allocated as well? (the DiscResource
structure includes a ciaresource pointer).

Have I overlooked some documentation somewhere?  I have been
experimenting to find out some of these things, but I am to the point
now where I may need to start disassembling the OS to learn the answers.

Any and all help would be appreciated.

                                        - Rob Ginn (eraps1@nadc.arpa)

ps: Please respond directly to me since the info-amiga mailer is down.
