Hello Colin,
I went to Aminet to find the programs you recomended. One of them was in a
program called MMULIB. I downloaded this, and the date on the docs was
x/x/2000, but the new OS was not mentioned in them. He did talk about the
setpatch. I believe installing MMULIB and what comes with it does something
to the setpatch. I'm wondering if I should install it. If you would look at
this program and let me know, I would appreciate it. Thanks a bunch.
