I heard that the Commodore stock on
Wall Street fell to $7 per/share
which could mean NO more Commodore by
this summer because the new Amiga is
not selling. If this happens, will
Loadstar continue on with monthly
issues and will Commodore's
Powerplay/Microcomputers
also continue? If this is just a
rumor, then good; if not what will
happen to all of us who own Commodore
computers?

-- Why does my logo.eliza not work?
The following four corrections were
offered to the eliza.logo program by
David Cutler:
On the INPUT.AND.RESPOND(level 2)
section:
(1) The 6th line down reads-
MAKE"PACKED.KEYWORDS CONCATENATE
:KEYWORDS --between the words MAKE
and PACKED, there should be a space
between the E and the ".
It should read: MAKE "PACKED.....
space here ^
------------------------------------
(2) The 12th line down reads--
IF MEMBER? "$ :RESPONSE THEN MAKE
"RESPONSE REPLACE.WORD"$ :NAME
:REPONSE --between the words WORD and
NAME, there should be a space between
the D(in word) and the ".
It should read: IF
MEMBER?........REPLACE.WORD "$ :NAME
space here ^
------------------------------------
(3) The 13th line down reads-
IF MEMBER? "# :RESPONSE THEN MAKE
"RESPONSE REPLACE.WORD"#
:PACKED.KEYWORDS :RESPONSE --between
the word WORD and the word PACKED,
there should be a space between the
d(in word) and "
It should read: IF MEMBER......
...REPLACE.WORD "# :PACKED.....etc.
space here ^
--------------------------------------
--------------------------------------
On the REPLACE.WORD(level 4)
section:
(4) The 5th line down reads-
IF FALSE OUTPUT FPUT FIRST :LIST
REPLACE.WORD :OLD :NEW (BUTFIRST
:LIST ) -- there should be NO space
between the words IF and FALSE
It should read IFFALSE OUTPUT....etc
no space ^
------------------------
There you have it. Remember to press
CONTROL C when leaving step 3 and the
program will work with Eliza
responding with illogical statements.
