Powell) Organization: Xetwnk Industries, Ltd. Lines: 30 Keywords:HELP! After reading the doc file for surf I wanted to see it in action, there is something sorta like this written in BASIC for my Atari 800XL (no groans please I like my Atari!) but this sounded SOOOOO MUCH better (which it should seeing how it is running on a 68000 machine with 512K!) but I digress... I downloaded the whole kit-and-kaboodle, and happily typed 'run surf' bam! "*Software Error* finish all disk activity (Oh how I wish I had GOMF!) then I hit cancel, bam! *GURU* reboot follows....... everybody here at B.S.U. that has Surf has this problem, I see on the net "set stack to 20000" I happily do so, BAM! (ad nauseum...) Is there anything I AM MISSING? Or should I just recompile Surf? (I have Lattice 3.03b will it work?) Thanks for any and all help! (and/or advice.... PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO BUY THE NEW COMPILER, I am a College Junior and am in debt up to eyeballs and can not afford the new Lattice release (upgrade or NO upgrade offer...) Sincerly, David C.
