Various unrelated questions:

1) (for a friend) Is there a public-domain program to download Amiga fonts
to an HP Laserjet ? On a fish disk ?

2) I have a drive(A1010) which has a tendency to "create" R/W errors if
used to write files and sometimes has difficulty with some disks. Is there
an adjustment that I could make to help this, or failing that can I at
least have it repaired ?

3) In the same vein, IS THERE ANY WAY TO ABORT a write request which has
failed due to a R/W error. I can press Cancel (or Retry) till I'm blue in
the face, remove the disk ... All I generally manage to get is a Guru :-(
And failing that, is it at least possible for your application to regain
control after such a problem ? Would setting pr_WindowPtr to -1 do the
trick ?

That's all for now.
