I am having problems with AMC-GDOS in that some Gem programs cause the error :
---------------------------------------
| /--\ |
| |STOP| GDOS-Error : invalid handle |
| \--/ |
| -------- |
| | QUIT | |
| -------- |
---------------------------------------
Having written a program to look into this, it occurs when opening or closing
a virtual screen workstation. This error only occurs with AMC-GDOS and not
Atari GDOS.
Any ideas, anyone?
The versions of GDOS I have are :
AMC-GDOS Release 3.20 CRX ( UK ) { Came with Gemini1.1 - neat program :-) }
Atari GDOS release 1.1 { Came with Opus2.2 spreadsheet }
A solution ( sort of ) would be to use Gemini with Atari GDOS but ...
... How do I convert the Gemini fonts to work with Atari GDOS?
Thanks in advance for any info,
Julian

If you open/close a virtual workstation with an invalid VDI handle AMC-GDOS notices this error and shows the alert box above. GDOS simply ignores the error. -- Dipl.-Inform.
