Loh) Newsgroups: comp.sys.atari.st Subject: SHADOW / BDT decline in sales Keywords: Shadow bug multi-tasking Message-ID: <1601@sbcs.sunysb.edu> Date: 16 Sep 88 18:57:16 GMT Organization: State University of New York at Stony Brook Lines: 24 I've found 2 instances in which SHADOW always crashes. i) Use GULAM's rx to receive some files. THen invoke SHADOW at some point later. Two bombs (i think). ii) Use UW.prg. Then invoke SHADOW while in UW.prg or at some point later. Same two bombs. And doing a warm-boot will not revive SHADOW. It will still crash until a cold boot is done. Has anyone else been hit by this? I'm using version 1.01 with a monchrome and a 20Meg Supra. ---------------------------------------------- I've used BDT Micro-Cshell and AnsiTerm. Both are good programs. However, there're quite a few public domain programs out now which are equally good (if not better) when compared to SOME of BDT's programs. GULAM and Uniterm comes to mind. I think this might be one reason why sales for BDT has declined. -- if you can dream it, you can do it.
