This one's for you Does anyone have a copy of the KA9Q sources that will compile properly on the AMIGA using MANX 3.6 . My version (871225.15) will not compile properly since MANX appears not to understand constructs of - #if defined(AMIGA) || defined(UNIX). This I can work around but it also is missing at least two files dir.c and dir.h. In addition the makefile is not properly configured and attempts to link the *dump files multiple times. This to can be fixed but it makes me wonder if it ever worked properly on the AMIGA. I have some modifications (improvements? :-) ) I would like to make. Primarily I want to force an AX25 connection to send all received data to the mailer. Most of my friends not running TCP are in the habit of connecting - leaving a short message - and disconnecting. The only reason I am not running the TCP software is that with the current code the message is thrown away if I'm not present to read it as it comes in. The other modifications are specific to my situation ( 1 tnc, 1 radio, two hams - make it recognize two callsigns, add a CTEXT message to satisfy the AX25 users). At one time I had the executable of a version that ran on the AMIGA, but lost it in a hard disk crash. So I know that it is running on the AMIGA, I just need some help getting the latest version that will compile. Any and All help will be greatly appreciated.

A while back, I added an AX.25 personal mailbox. It gives the user a signon message and menu, and allows him (or her) to enter SMTP mail, page the owner for chat, or disconnect. The code is a bit crude, but does the job. You can find it among the net/rom code in nrbdale.arc on louie. Phil now tells me he intends to merge this stuff in some time soon. 73, Dan, W9NK
