Disk Copying!<br />

WE always say the first thing<br />

you should do when you get<br />

your cover disk is to make a<br />

backup copy for yourself. There<br />

are good reasons for this as I'm<br />

sure You'll understand, but this<br />

month we have an exceptional<br />

case.<br />

The wonderful SWIV demo<br />

uses a special disk format<br />

which means that a standard<br />

<strong>Amiga</strong>DOS copy command will<br />

not work! That's the bad news.<br />

The good news is that you<br />

can copy across all other programs<br />

in the disk, just by dragging<br />

their icons.<br />

I'm telling you this just so<br />

you don't ring up the editorial<br />

offices complaining that you<br />

can't copy the disk. OK?<br />

CURSOR was written in<br />

<strong>Amiga</strong>BASIC and was compiled<br />

with itself. It is Copyright<br />

01990 Jurgen Forster. The<br />

library and small pieces of the<br />

program were written in<br />

assembler and compiled using<br />

A68k from Charlie Gibbs and<br />

Blink from the Software<br />

Distillery.<br />

This program is freeware,<br />

which means you may use it<br />

and give it to any your friends,<br />

but you are not allowed to sell<br />

it except for a small copying<br />

fee.<br />

Please send hug reports.<br />

suggestions for improvements,<br />

or anything else to: Jurgen<br />

Forster, Lintheide 9, 4800<br />

Bielefeld 17, West Germany<br />

If he gets enough feedback<br />

from you Jurgen may well<br />

implement the few commands<br />

and functions Cursor does not<br />

yet support.<br />

are always looking tor original conibutions<br />

for the <strong>Amiga</strong> <strong>Computing</strong><br />

ver disk. If you think something you<br />

have written is good enough to share<br />

with everybody else who reads the magazine,<br />

send it along and we'll have a look.<br />

If we like what we see, it could earn<br />

you up to £1,000.<br />

Please let us know which files, if any,<br />

your submission needs from the<br />

Workbench disk. If it is clickable, feel<br />

free to design an original icon. But don't<br />

make it too large. And please use the<br />

standard Workbench colours.<br />

Bear in mind that a program which<br />

does not run on a 512k machine would<br />

have to be exceptionally good to make it<br />

on to the disk.<br />

Submission size b y t e s in total<br />

We will accept submissions up to 500k in total length, including documentation.<br />

But the shorter your submission, the better chance it stands of<br />

getting on to the disk. If it is a compiled or assembled program include all<br />

the source code, but do not count this in the size of the submission. Write<br />

a brief description of your submission below. If it consists of more than<br />

one file, describe what each file is for. Attach an extra sheet of paper to<br />

this form if necessary:<br />

Sign this declaration:<br />

The stuff on this disk is mine. I didn't nick it off someone else. It hasn't<br />

been published before and I haven't submitted it elsewhere because I want<br />
