[comp.sys.amiga] Compugraphic characters

Jim.Priestle@afitamy.fidonet.org (Jim Priestle) (02/27/90)

Can we start a discussion of the compugraphic characters.  I heard that they 
are to be incorperated into WB 1.4 and that Gold Disk will be the exclusive 
source to amigites for the first  year.  Any info floating around out there 
(PS, I've never actually SEEN the output of Compugraphics characters, and am 
interested in their quality)  -jim-

I have what I believe to be the latest version of PPage, but someone told me
that you should be able to save the preferences of the program in a file.
I want to be able to do this because I am having EXTREME difficulty making the
Compugraphic characters display on the screen.  I always get the requester that
says, "Not enough memory to start Compugraphic Task--Characters not already
in cache will not be displayed."  And because there aren't any characters in
the cache (to my belief) I cannot see anything I type.

I know I have more than enough memory for everything to be put in RAM at once
and still do other things with my Amiga at the same time.  9MB should be good
enough for this program to run, process everything and still have tons of space
to hold Compugraphic fonts.  What gives?
The manual I have doesn't even start to mention ANYTHING about this.
