Hi,
I've got a few questions to ask, so I decided to group them all together...
-=================-
Are there any printable docs files for the Easylife extension? .Guide files are
all very nice, but you can only print one 'page' at a time, and being a
technophobe, I'd much rather have it on paper. (You can look at the
instructions at the same time as the offending code).
BTW: Easylife is definitely one of the most useful extensions around, but I
can't seem to find the command "El Kitchen Sink" anywhere ...
-=================-
Music and AmosPro: I'd like to be able to have music and samples at the same
time. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be possible with Mods, and Meds, so
how can it be done? (And please don't suggest the Amos Music format, I've tried
that and the "converter" that I had to convert from Mod to Amos format
butchered the tunes horribly.)
-=================-
This isn't much of a problem but a "WHY?" instead.
a = (320-Gr Length( title$ ))/2
doesn't work, while
tl = Gr Length( title$ )
a = (320-tl)/2
does. I haven't got a real problem with the way that Amos does this (I know
about it after all). I'd just like to know why it does it. What strange methods
does AmosPro use to pass variables around? Why does it pass them around in this
way?
-=================-
Is there anyway to force AmosPro to NOT perform it's string tidying functions?
Even for only a limited amount of time, this would be very useful.
-=================-
Is the only difference between AmosPro compiled code for WB and for CLI that
one is auto detaching?
-=================-
Thanks in advance.
Nick

For those of you who are interested, "Eternity" is in a "stable" test version,
with over 300 technology types and (currently) 3 races. Unfortunately I've had
to put it on hold for a bit, due to my final year project and other
commitments, but it will be released soon(ish).
