Amiga World's review of Cltd's Timesaver clock-calendar/macro gizmo was quite favorable, but I'd like to get a second (third...) opinion on it. The method of setting the date (send a ctrl-D, followed by DATE, and "Execute startup-sequence" when the keyboard is reset) seems like kludge, and I'm wondering how it works with things like VD0: that insist on being the first thing in the startup-sequence. Besides VD0: how does it work with Conman? Is Conman completely redundant with Timesaver installed? Are there any conflicts with ANY programs? What if DATE and EXECUTE don't happen to be on a disk (a copy protected game for example), does Timesaver cause the s-s to die? I hope that it does work since Timesaver sounds like it would be a nice addition to my system, but I won't give up VD0: for anything! -- Blaine Gardner @ Evans & Sutherland 540 Arapeen Drive, SLC, Utah 84108 UUCP Address: {ihnp4,ucbvax,decvax,allegra}!decwrl!esunix!blgardne Alternates: {ihnp4,seismo}!utah-cs!utah-gr!uplherc!esunix!blgardne seismo!usna!esunix!blgardne
