- [various Interface questions]
-
- The Interface system in Pro is not well written. (Sort of like the rest
- of AMOS.) If you can't get something to work right, chances are it's
- because the function wasn't really written.
-
- >5) I haven't actually got any extensions at all (except for the Amos Pro

- >something incredibly stupid?
-
- I think that version of the Turbo extension doesn't work with Pro.
-

- Does that answer your question? :)
-
- Yes, the Intuition Extension does let you create true Intuition programs
- just as easily as you create any normal AMOS program. If you're interested
- in a demo version, I can mail it to you.

- >Sorry about this, I'm sure you've already been through all this crap but
- >I've only just subscribed!
-
- Ask Mike Cox for a copy of the FAQ - it has a list of all extensions
- available for AMOS. (Mike, how recent is that list?)
