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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ________________ ________________________ ________________________ _// ## ## ## \\_ | J.D.Coleman@ | | uk.ac.newcastle | |_____ _____| |________________________| |________________________| :[oOOO]----------[OOOo]:-: -o--o- `------' -o--o- :-: -o--o- `------' -o--o- : +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

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.
