Well, this is my first posting to the net, so I hope it works!!
1) A few months ago, John Toebes mentioned that he was starting a port of
Hack Ver.1.0.3 to the Amiga. I was wondering if anyone has heard more on
this.
2) A friend of mine (a developer) told me that Workbench 1.2 Beta ??? was
incompatible with the 68010, even with the exception handler instruction.
However, I see companies selling 68010 upgrade kits. Can anyone confirm
this??
3) In issue #6 of 'Amazing Computing', the Amigo stated ( on p47 ) that there
was a company in Connecticut developing a C-64 emulator for the Amiga.
Does anybody know what company? (I have about 30 C-64 programs)
4) When I run vt100 ver2.2, if I enable 'caps lock' before I call vt100,
then the program gets lower case characters. I have to disable 'caps
lock', then enable it again. No big deal, I can live with it, but I'd
just like to know why.

Can anyone confirm > this?? Your friend has his facts wrong. I run 1.2 Beta <the last> on a 68010 with no problems. Some of the software on 1.1 doesn't work with the 680[12]0, but this has all been fixed for 1.2. >4) When I run vt100 ver2.2, if I enable 'caps lock' before I call vt100, > then the program gets lower case characters.

It doesn't know the caps lock key is down (hmmm - I think it can find out. I'd have to look at docs I don't have), only whether it's been pressed and which state it went into. <mike
