- I can't give specific policy, as I'm not one of ones who make the policy
- decisions around here, but...
-
- Your best bet to get the latest set of includes is to get them directly
- from Commodore.
-
- Most people don't need more than what comes on the compiler disks (which
- will always be the latest available when the original disks are made),
- and those who do generally can get them from Commodore when needed.
-
- Yes, we tried to supply the 2.04 headers to some people when they came
- out, since the 2.02 headers were what we had on the disks, and the RKM
- examples required the 2.04 headers, but this very quickly turned into a
- logistical *nightmare*!! We really aren't set up to send out these
- extra things like this, and can't even guarantee that the disk we grab
- to copy will be the latest stuff you could get directly from Commodore
- anyway.
-
- Now, of course, the people who *do* make the policy decisions may decide
- differently, but I don't think we'll supply the includes separately
- anymore...
-
- (They are under Commodore copyright anyway, eh?)
