True but creating a zip on macOS can be done from right click menu, if AmigaOS has similar function then it's just a few clicks more which is bearable until the next WormHole version

Can be added to the context menu - I did a long time ago.

Thanks for the new articles, enjoyed the Sam v A1222 head-to-head. I'm unlikely to get either one, but still an interesting comparison - personally, I would go for the Sam.

Agree, really impressive. I had glanced at your efforts from time to time with interest and even tried qemu myself, but alas found it incomprehensible.

Congratulations and hopefully you'll help grow the community!

Running Status from an arexx script

Posted on: 2025/4/4 3:19 #45

Not too shy to talk

Hi everyone,

A quick question that has got me stumped - can 'status' only be run from a shell? I am trying to use it in an arexx script to determine if a process is running or not.

So, from a shell:


c:status >ram:this

creates a file in ram with a list of running processes.

But the following arexx script does nothing:


/* */



options results



adddress command "c:status >ram:this"

Not even an empty file.

I had a similar issue, I had started but not completed an order with a different email address. Oliver had to delete my old order so I could complete a new one.

Hopefully he sees this soon and fixes it for you.

I was excited to give WormHole a go, but alas it doesn't work for me.

When I start it on my X5000, it just blinks between red and yellow. On my Windows 10 machine, it shows green.

Edit:

Ah, the issue was my firewall on Win 10. Switching it off allowed my X5000 to connect. Now I need to figure out how to configure firewall to allow WormHole.

Which is not the case for my old installation, I had noticed this problem and I currently have on the old installation version 53.21 which does not have this bug.

I've been railing against this stupid bug for years. The Enhancer Time Prefs is just broken.

You could try ffmpeg rather than mplayer.

I remember when I had an Android phone, heic was the default codec for my wife's iPhone, and I couldn't read any of the pictures she sent me. There wasn't even a heic codec for Android. In thd end I changed the default on her phone to jpeg.

Request for help with PortablE code

Posted on: 2025/1/23 2:51 #53

Not too shy to talk

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong with this PortableE code. When I compile it, I get an error:

ERROR: parameter of incorrect type
LINE 19: IF InStr(file,'.lha') <> -1
Hint: parameter has type ARRAY OF CHAR, expression has type VALUE.

I'm guessing its some kind of type error, but I don't know what it should be.


/* Scan Dir*/



OPT POINTER, PREPROCESS



MODULE 'std/cGui', 'std/cPath'



DEF dir:STRING

DEF file:ARRAY OF CHAR

DEF info:ARRAY OF CHAR





PROC main()

  dir := ImportDirPath('Misc:Downloads/DLM_Archive')

  RecurseDir(dir,ProcessFile)

ENDPROC



FUNC ProcessFile(file) OF funcRecurseFile

      Print('Found File: \s\n',file)

      IF InStr(file,'.lha') <> -1

        Print('Is an lha.\n')

     ENDIF

ENDFUNC

Thanks for any help.

Perhaps you mean me?

I can't get Basilisk II v 1.0 to select a hardfile or CD iso. When I select one, it appears in the UI as 0 bytes.

The same files work OK in v 0.9

I had a bit of a play around a few months back. The version currently on OS4 Depot is unusable on my X5000 - I can't select files with the gadgets and the device names are hardcoded so I couldn't select the CD drive (I have a real copy of MacOS 8 which I bought from someone many years ago). Thankfully I still had an older version and was able to get that running, albeit with a hardfile I downloaded from somewhere. Couldn't get TCP/IP working though.

Thanks for the tip, but that method has proven to be equally frustrating. I get the email, open the link, fill in the details - with some difficuly, the buttons are white on light grey - click submit, and then get a blank page (on Safari).

Can I ask how you managed to buy Nova Bridge? I have exactly this issue, but I can't buy Nova Bridge. It opens a page for a credit card purchase, but the Amiga browser (I've tried Odyssey and Netsurf) just shows blank, presumably because they can't cope with a modern web page)

If I'm moving large files by USB, I always plug into the rear ports, seem to be faster and more reliable than the case ports connected to the mb USB. I also prefer DOpus 5, seems more reliable.
