I just got a note (with no USABLE RETURN address--'the unknown user')
from a crestfallen //gs user who said that Boing-II did't work
on his/her (how should I know?) machine.

1) I'm not sure what the deal is on that.

2) I just downloaded it from Apple2-l myself, and it worked.

3) I'm not sure how I feel about support for the
   //gs...those folks have all kinds of nifty
   software that doesn't even run in a reduced-feature
   mode on the ][ or ][+ or //e or //c or anything else.


I can only test this kind of magic on my own machine.  I have a
][+.  If you (the unknown user) think it might help you, I could send
you the source code.


4) I have had it run properly on a //gs, under ProDOS 8.  (booting
   into ProDOS 8, that is...NOT using the //gs SYSTEM disk.)


I hope you can get it to work.  Let me know, and include a return address!

PS.  Anyone else having troubles?  Write to MARK%ISIS@ATHENA.MIT.EDU, not
     to the whole mailing list.  No one but me cares about bug reports
     on my software, right?
