- Thats a LOAD of CRAP! I used the Installer and it DIDN'T WORK! I tryed 3-4
- times. I finally trying Installing using the SMALL FONT Option, that time it
- WORKED! SO SOmething is SCREWED UP with the LARGE FONT OPTION! Either it's
- the INSTALLER, or AWEB! I think it's AWEB'S Problem myself, it sholdn't just
- NOT RUN AT ALL! It should at least give you a reson why it's aborting.
- How the HELL should I know what FONT'S it Requirer Installing for the FIRST
- TIME? Doesn't it Install what our NEED? The Installer doesn't TELL you what
- FONT's YOU NEED? You can't read the MANUAL because it's in HTML format,
- that's a Pain in the ASS to read without a WEB Browser WORKING, but since it
- doesn't want to RUN,how the HELL are you suppost to read the MANUAL, Use
- ANOTHER WEB BROWSER! Seems a little silly to me.

-
- I Used the Installer, it copys all the Classes Crap right where it wanted,
- right there to that directory.

-
- Well when something is SCREWED up with either the Installerr or AWEB is sure
- is!

-
- Oh FU*K you, I'm not no fu*ken little KID! I've been using Amiga's for Many
- Many YEARS! I've been been to Commodore Shows when the A1000 was being SHOWN
- along with C-64's and C-128's so get real. I had No problem with AmiTCP,
- IBrowse, Amosiac, TIA, MLINK, SLIRP, THOR, AmFTP, AmIRC, ALYNX, UNIX.
-
- Sorry but when there's a INSTALLER, for the program I just go ahead and let
- it do it's thing, Less problems that way then just moving crap around
- Manually. Seems a little POINTLESS to me doing it that way. I KNOW it was a
- AWEB problem for SURE! If you Didn't Install using the LARGE FONTS options,
- Delete AWEB and ReInstall using that Option and see if it works! Maybe I'll
- try that and see it it'll work NOW, but it sure didn't the 3-4 other times
- befoe I finally told it to use the Small Fonts.

- To let you know, I've HAD a Vic-20, C64, C-128, C-128D, Amiga 500, and a Amiga
- 1200 030/50Mzh system right now. I can to some Basic and AREXX programming,
- never got into C, I have to many things to do and not enought time to do
- everything to learn.
-
- Tryed using DOSTRACE to see what the hell what up with AWEB, the first clue I
- got was I didn't have the Bullet.library for some reson, must of got deleted
- at some point of time. I hot NO other hits using it to see why AWEB didn't
- work, it just STOPED! FOr some people, Not knowing it requiered the
- bullet.library can be a problem, How come No where in the readme file does it
- SAY it need it? Doesn't say Want FONT's it Needs. GIves NO error Requesters
- when it aborts for some Unknown Reson. It's a Release version yet there no
- REAL Manual, HTML doesn't count!
-
- AWEB is NOT Complete even for a HTML 2 ONLY Web Browser.
