I'm interested in getting the full manual set for the Amiga- AmigaDos 1.2 Hardware Reference Exec- Libs and Devices Exec- (something else... graphics, perhaps) Intuition Anyhow, the 5 reference manuals everyone needs. I'm wondering tho- if I order this from my dealer will I get the 1.1 manuals (except for AmigaDos, which I know is 1.2)? Are the 1.2 reference manuals out yet? Are they easy to recognize (like the AmigaDOS, which has big "1.2"'s on it)? Or, if they're not out yet, will there be addendum sheets for the 1.1 manual sets? Don't be bashful, I know someone knows! Thanks... -mike schwager -- {ihnp4,convex,pur-ee}!uiucdcs!schwager schwager%uiuc@csnet-relay.arpa University of Illinois, Dept. of Computer Science

There is a 1.2 Bantam AmigaDOS manual (clearly marked as such), but the A-W manuals are currently all v1.1. There may be 1.2 manuals is the future, but right now, your best bet is 1.1 manuals + 1.2 Native Developer Update (1.2 Includes, Autodocs, ReadMes, Amiga.lib, etc), a 4-disk set available from: CATS - Orders Lauren Brown CBM 1200 Wilson Drive West Chester, PA. 19380 ("1.2 Native Developer Update", $20 US, +$2.50 Canada, +$5.00 Foreign, check made out to Commodore Business Machines) -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Carolyn Scheppner -- CATS >>Commodore Amiga Technical Support<< UUCP ...{allegra,ihnp4,rutgers}!cbmvax!carolyn PHONE 215-431-9180 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
