- I am developping some applications for both PCs and SUNs using the Puzzle
- Systems board and software. The problems I encountered are:
-
- 1. It is often hung up when I quickly toggle the screen mode between
- graphics and characters, or raise a PC window which has slept for
- a long time.
- 2. The device driver accessing to UNIX filesystems does not seem to
- support perfectly CP/M compatible function requests so that I do
- not get satisfactory results on doing 'dir' or 'copy' against UNIX
- filesystems. Instead, I am using 'ls', 'mv', or 'cp' written in C.
