[ _does_ the line-eater really exist ? ] A few months ago I seem to recall two or three articles from people who said that they were porting OS9/68000 to the Atari ST. A typical message would imply that they were nearly there, and to stand by for more details. Without exception they seem to have dried up. I keep looking at software lists, and watching the net, but there is no OS9 to be seen. Is there some reason why a port _can't_ be done? Do the Microware hit-men come and shoot your kneecaps ? Or, (as is probably more likely,) have I just missed an anouncement or two. Could someone please enlighten me. Cheers, Frank. -- Frank K Carver "In space ... no one can hear your laser sound-effect" Join the Group Against Gratuitous Acronyms (GAGA) NOW !
