There IS such a group for this purpose: comp.sys.amiga.advacoy.
Unfortunately, no matter what we have tried to do (having a dedicate group,
posting monthly reminder), there're always some fanatics jumping around
trying to convert the rest of world. My advice, just ignore these people and
the topic (I'm not even following my own advice :-)

Since when. This implies that a Mac is capable of CD quality sound if you
use two eight bit ports as one output. NOT a chance in hell. The Mac
in its standard configuration is limited to 8 bit sound with a max
sampling rate of 22Khz.
BTW - My NeXT can handle 4 channels of CD quaility sound, that is 4
channels at 44.1k and 16bits directly from the harddisk. Two channels
will be multiplexed on one speaker.
Anyway, the only thing inferior to a Mac in the standard sound catagory is
an IBM PC.

If you fell you must do something E-MAIL the posts back to the people who
wrote them. DO NOT repost them into amiga groups, all your gonna do is
expand the war as Amiga users will come back and reply in comp.sys.atari.st.
B.T.W. If you want to read some computer wars tune into comp.sys.amiga.
advocay. Mac,IBM and Next users frequently base the amiga here. Until
recently no Atari users ventured into this newsgroup, hats off to Atari
users. (Some Atari user has already poster something to MOST Amiga
newsgroups, I hope this does not expand the war :(

Well, come on, who cares about the number of users. You must certainly be
using 5 or more processes yourself if you're really taking advantage of a
[yech!] VMS system. Before I came to C=, I programmed on one of these babies
for four months at GE (my shortest job ever, 'cept for summer jobs). You
obviously SPAWN off anything that takes more than 10 minutes to compile. You
run Emacs as a separate process, etc. The VMS license, if anything like a
typical UNIX license, only limits logins, not processes. So if you really
think you don't need multitasking, you're either doing something really strange
on that system, or you don't know how to use it effectively. It's certainly
much harder on a VAX or anything else without a GUI. That doesn't make me
wonder about multitasking systems without GUIs, but it sure made me wonder
about GUIs without multitasking, ever since I first saw a Mac...

So is AmigaOS. VAXen, like it or not, are getting mighty slow and mighty
expensive by modern standards. That's why "cbmvax" here is a DECstation 5000,
based on the MIPS R3000, not a VAX anymore. VMS, like UNIX, is a real
multiUSER OS, while AmigaOS isn't. And it does have some elegance here and
there, but for the most part it's butt ugly, IMHO. Referring to "Rico's Molly
Benchmark Chart" here, I find the VAX 6320 under VMS doing 4.5 mollies, with
the A3000 doing 7.3 under UNIX. Now who's the "toy"? (Answer: the MicroVAX,
which does 1 molly, compared to the PC-AT at 1.1).

I thought we were talking about VMS.... Now, if you put UNIX on that VAX
6320, then it would run circles around that A3000 running its flavor of
*nix. Hardware-wise, the A3000 could hardly run VMS. Just because VMS
is a "dog", one does not need to condem the hardware. VMS is slow.
UNIX is fast. They originated and were designed around different OS
concepts. They can't be compared. But, you seem to fall into the
falicy of Multitasking... Yes, actually, VMS does multitask, just in a
different way than most other OS's... All multitasking on the above
mentioned machines is more like "time-sharing". It is not until you have
MULTIPLE processors, running concurrently that you would get true
multitasking...

Sounds like Atari in the USA is in about the same state as it is in Australia.
The thing is that Atari is not making the public aware the type of machine
the Atari is or what type of work it can do. A recent advertisement in
Australia shows a teenager in his room playing Captain Blood on the Atari ST.
I wonder why the Atari is still tought as a games machine here.
What did Atari in Germany do to get such a good reputation there?

Yes, I can suggest Atari's CACHEnnn program. It works with AHDI
3.01 and large partitions. I don't know how it compares with other
programs, but it certainly does the job of speeding your disk reads.
You can get this as 'utilities/rainbow.arc' from atari.archive.

Subject: GCC 1.39 -g Problems
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
I have got "gcc139b.lzh" containing the GNU assembler for ATARI-ST
version 1.38 from Uni Koeln and the GNU debugger "gdb" from A.A.
When trying to compile a file with the "-gg" option, the assembler
reports an unkown option "G" and starts reading the (compiler) symbolfile
as input file. When trying to compile with "-g", I get a bogon-alert
from the linker. Does anyone know what's going wrong? How can I use
the debugger? Unfortunately I only have docs for GCC 1.37.

Subject: Help with altboot4.0e
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
I need HELP with Altboot 4.0e.
If you know what this program is (it lets you boot alternate configurations
when you hold down ALTERNATE) then please attempt to assist me.
When executing my configuration files, all works well until I try to add
a modifier for another type of file. Ex: To load a different desktop.inf,
you enter a single-digit, such as "0" or "1" followed by return. ALTBT will
then rename DESKTOP.IN0 to DESKTOP.INF and the previous DESKTOP.INF will
have been renamed to what it was previously (DESKTOP.IN1 or some other).
I cannot get it to do this with a list of data (FILE.LST). This data file
tells my Ramdisk copier what files to copy to Ramdisk upon bootup. I
maintain many lists of FILE.LST (so they will give me flexibility with this
programme). One will go with a 52K configured RAMdisk and copy UUD/UUE to
RAM. another FILE.LST copies GIF viewers to RAM.
Here is an example of a configuration file which works.
hd_reset.prg enable hdreset
hdstrt10.prg Pick progs from a menu
codekeys.prg Install codekeys
lgselect.prx Don't want a file selector now
1 desktop.in1 = current desktop.inf
codekeys.acc Make codekeys work too
Now, according to the documentation, I should enter a "#" on an empty line;
then the files with their path in order to rename 'em. So, I add:
#
a \ file.lst 1 file.ls1 will be current file.lst
However -- With these two additional lines, Alt-Boot ignores my configuration
file completely. EXCEPT for the fact that it *does* say, "FILE.LS1 current
FILE.LST" That is, it does *not* modify my programs/accs as specified in
the beginning of the configuration file.
HELP!!!!

Isn't this getting just a little bit silly? I think the `one program per
week' thing is a bit out-of-hand.
1. AltCntlShiftH is more complicated than moving the mouse.
2. Why would you WANT to do it anyway?
3. IF Homey intercepts traps (it probably doesn't though), then
it is another slow-down.
Please, I AM NOT MEANING TO DISCOURAGE, I just wanted to give my opinion.
Small, useful programs are excellent. But really, they HAVE to be useful.

I'll try. :-) I tried this program many moons ago also. It does NOT
work on a color system. I didn't try using it with any of the mono
emulators so perhaps that would be your first move. If you have Mac
emulation, you can try running Maclayers under the Mac OS. It works
better than uw anyway. You can get it through anonymous FTP from
Rascal.utexas.edu.
Good luck.

We don't want it. WE didn't start it. Some person who _happens_ to own
an Amiga started it. It is of no concern to most (if not all) of us, and
we'd rather you deal with your newsgroup problems in your own newsgroup.
Obviously nothing good can come out of this flame war, and it would just
be an annoyance to us. Since we were uninvolved at the start, I don't
see why you should involve us now. Please learn to ignore people who
flame just for the sake of flaming.
Perhaps you should create a comp.sys.atari.st.advocacy. Our .advocacy
group has become quite a place for debate, and flame wars are not so
frequent anymore. In fact, there is sort of a side-discussion about
how advanced the DOS routines in TOS are compared to AmigaDOS'
dos.library. You are welcome to come over join in. Please don't
bother flaming, though. We're looking for real discussion, not trash.

Steven,
Also in the telecomm directory are file to use uw with the atari. I
am currently using it right now.. I will post a message in a couple
days to tell you exactly what files are needed. I set it up 2-3
months ago.. Although I hate using it, cause I only have a color
monitor and it requires mono monitor only.. Anybody out there
thinking of porting it to color? Would be appreciated by a few people
I am sure....
