(sorry to post this to the net, but I can't get mail back to you for some
reason)
Hmmm, yes, AUXOUT is a bit dodgy. It should work with
all _existing_ versions of TOS, since this location actually contains a
vector to the actual location, so there is a means for changing the address
of the routine without changing AUXOUT. However, I don't know about TOS
1.4.
I think this is the only effective way of doing it. The trouble with FORCE
is that it dosen't work on all output - functions like bconout would still
output to the screen, causing a bit of a mess. In fact, I think the only
functions that are affected by FORCE are READ and WRITE.
Please let me know if I'm wrong or you have any other ideas
Dave
