Among the reasons for a binary only distribution, is the modification of some of the run time library code of Manx in order to get zoo working on the Amiga. While I am posting, I would like to request some feedback on the Amiga version of Zoo. What features would people like to see? I have been thinking of having it automatically save and restore filecomments, would this be a wanted feature? Also, I have been debating about using some of the arp.library commands to add AmigaDos wildcards and to save a little space. The arp.library is part of the AmigaDos Replacement Program. Are enough people adding it to their workbench disk for me to do this? -- Brian Waters !---\ ihpn4!{iuvax|pur-ee}!bsu-cs!jbwaters uunet!---/
