FORTH?? Message-ID: <257@uw-beaver> Date: Thu, 20-Dec-84 23:33:24 EST Article-I.D.: uw-beave.257 Posted: Thu Dec 20 23:33:24 1984 Date-Received: Sat, 22-Dec-84 07:36:05 EST Sender: daemon@uw-beaver Organization: U of Washington Computer Science Lines: 15 From: Mark ZimmermanI've got a couple of quick questions about MusicWorks. It's a fabulous program, but I'm very nervous about running it from my original disk (since my 2-year-old loves to play with it and might clobber it accidentally). Attempts to back it up using a block copier give no complaints from the copier, but the copy tends to bomb out. There are a couple of invisible files that seem to be the offending party. Somebody on CompuServe suggested that if I get rid of them on the copy, things will be fine. Is that true? Any other suggestions? Meanwhile, I'm running using the write-protect tab on the master disk, with my fingers crossed.... Second question: what language was MusicWorks developed in? Some of the features/limitations of the program suggest FORTH to me ... does anybody have any evidence? Many thanks - Z
