[comp.lang.forth] ForthMacs, apologies

currier@romeo.cs.duke.edu (Bob Currier - DCAC Network Comm. Specialist) (01/05/89)

Several days ago I posted a request for help with ForthMacs for the
Atari 1040ST.  I seem to have been overly critical, and wish to issue
the following retraction:

ForthMacs DOES work with no problems.  The problem I encountered was with
the Ram disk software I was using, NOT ForthMacs.  I was contacted by
Mitch Bradley (the author of ForthMacs) within 12 hours of posting.
He gave me a patch to "fix" ForthMacs to work with my ramdisk sw.
Please note that I had not paid any registration fees, so I certainly
was not entitled to any support from Mitch.  I subsequently tried a different
ramdisk, and ForthMacs ran without difficulty.  I highly recommend the system,
and will be sending Mitch my registration fee post-haste.

...and so Forth,

Bob Currier
