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 />
<strong>Amiga</strong> <strong>Computing</strong> to publish it.<br />
