The first example in the Intuition guide states that it is really important to know the right rev level of intuition when you make the OpenLib call. Naturally I wondered what version of intuition I had so I wrote: #include#include struct IntuitionBase *ib; main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) { ib = OpenLibrary("intuition.library" , i); printf("rev %3d status: %s\n" , i , ib == NULL ? "A" : "P"); } } expecting that I'd get one P for present and a lot of A's for absent. Well, I got one hundred P's. What gives? Actually, this isn't a really burning issue but I thought I'd start some new conversation in the net (although I really would like an answer). Say, why doesn't the detailed manuals actually tell you how to add device drivers? They sort'a skirt the issue. Perry S. Kivolowitz ihnp4!atux01!perry P.S. I haven't gotten any feedback on my desire to start a New Jersey AMIGA group - wake up!!!!
