- Short: Tells the system where AmigaE stack is.

- Version: 1.0

- Programs compiled with AmigaE do not use the stack given by system, but
- instead they create their own. Unfortunately, this is done in non
- system-friendly way, so SPLower and SPUpper pointers in task structure keep
- old values. It cause wrong behaviour of all programs which check the
- stack (StackMon, StackCheck, MCC NList).
- This AmigaE module fixes the problem. It fakes the SPLower and SPUpper
- values.
-
- How to use it:
- At the beginning of the program add following line:
- x:=fakestack() -> Fakes stack pointers' values
- At the end type:
- fakestack(x) -> Restore old values
-
-
- Example:
-
- ----------------------
- MODULE 'fakestack'
-
- PROC main()
- DEF stack
-
- stack:=fakestack()
-
- -> Here's your program
-
- fakestack(stack)
- ENDPROC
- ----------------------

-
- WARNING: This is a hack. It has been tested with registered version of
- AmigaE 3.2e. I don't know how it works with other versions of E.
