- Actually, I wouldn't want to waste the space on my hard drive (even though i
- do have 160 megs) with help files for AmigaDos.. consider that all commands
- have a help template which if you understand the basic context, is all that's
- necessary for most of them. Perhaps online help for Ed, and Edit (probably
- the most cryptic line editor i've EVER seen..) but i can't think of much else
- you would need it for.
-
- As it is, i've got freakin (who put the freak in Amigaguide?) .guide files
- coming out my wazoo from EVERYTHING i've been getting lately. PowerVisor, SAS
- C 6 (damn, i still have to get that registration card in..), Mostra, Cerca (a
- file finder), ToolManager, etc.. etc..
-
- I wish someone would come up with a .guide management system... some way to
- put all your .guide files somewhere and be able to view them from a common key
- sequence..
