In response to Bruce Barrett's comment about what an ideal Amiga program should look like, I for one would like to hear any suggestions that the world at large has. Personally I think that virtually everything that I've seen so far is a poor excuse for .... I am flat out refusing to buy any software which hogs my machine for no good reason (are you listening EA???) and am similarly not touching anything that is copy-protected. It seems that people are writing programs which hide the fact that the Amiga is a multitasking machine rather than emphasize it. I thought that I would decide what programs my Amiga should be running at the same time... I don't need EA or anyone else to decide for me. ---- On a totally different note: How many of you out there hate the CLI as much as I do? (Don't get me wrong here, I'm very glad that I've got the CLI but I wish that it could do a few more things)... And of those how many are writing their own shells? I'd like to hear about'em... and if you need some one to test them on an Amiga with lots of extra memory... Lo Song -Rico {allegra|ihnp4|utzoo|linus|decvax}!watmath!watnot!rmariani
