Snap will also be available on a Fish disk (#274). I don't know if someone has put it on an ftp site. A bug report: Snap dies a horrible death if 'clipboard.device' isn't available. Hard disks tend to do that to programs.

Hard disks tend to do that to programs. I've also noticed that Snap locks up the machine if I am currently in the process of snapping some text and while I have the Left-Amiga+LMouse button down, another program suddenly performs an OpenWindow or OpenScreen on top of the boxed region. I use Snap all the time because it is so useful. But does the graphics snapping mode have any practical utility at the moment? Being able to cut out bitmapped clip-art on the fly into its own window is truly neat, but has anyone been able to do anything with it?

Could someone please reveal to me just what Snap is, whether it is public-domain, and (if so), where it can be had (ie, which Fish disk). I think this is going to be something I would like to get a hold of, perhaps. +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Jeff Bevis | "But I don't like spam!" | | bevis@en.ecn.purdue.edu | Give me Amiga or nothing at all. | +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+

But, I HAVE had a lockup on it. And I do use the WTFPatch3. I've had two lockups with Snap 1.4, but I use it ALL the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ = /// | Jim Perry | Arc@Desire.Wright.edu = = /// Amiga! | ^Communications Consultant| -or- = = \XX/ The One | Arc Electronics, Inc. | Arc@WSU.BITNET = = ____& Only... | Wright State University |"Ouch!
