I recently tried to start using mg (MicroGnuEmacs) on my Amiga
(version 1b, I missed a few files in the recent posting of mg2a). At first
everyting works fine, until I am finished editing and try to exit - I am
immediately faced with "Software Error, Task Held ...". Something with my
CLI boot disk is causing this problem. If I boot using the standard V1.2
Workbench disk, everything works fine. The Boot disk that is causing the
problem copies a few files to Ram:c/, then runs Matt Dillon's Shell2.07M (I
can't get Shell2.07LM to work either :-) ). Exiting Shell doesn't help.
Can anybody suggest what the problem might be? BTW, what file (of
editor commands) does mg try to read when it starts up?

Why did this happen though??? mg has an option to create a function called "amiga-set-font" which allows you to change the mg font on the fly. You must have been running a version with this function compiled in. Stephen Walton, representing myself swalton@solar.stanford.edu Cal State, Northridge rckg01m@calstate.BITNET
