I've been unable to make sunclock.prg work on my 1 meg 520 w/TOS 1.4. Yes, I have included sunclock.rsc posted here recently. I get three bombs almost immediately upon double-clicking, regardless of auto/accessory programs. Any ideas? Anyone made it work? Bill Sheppard

I got it running on my ST2. No problem at all. My only complaint is that the screen is 6 hours out of sync with the sun itself. That is because the program is set to agree with the sun if you have the clock on your ST set to Middle European Time. Joep Mathijssen, the porter, (good work Joep) is sitting one fourth of the way around the world from me. I would love to see the sun come up (or set) just as the edge of the shadow moves past thej place on the map where I sit. (*) I think that there needs to be a way to set an "offset" on the sunclock. The offset needs to be in hours and minutes, cause not all time zones are one hour apart. (They say that when you land in Newfoundland, you set your watch back by half an hour and 50 years.) (*) Where does the archive site "terminator" get its name?

Only problem is that if I leave it running long enough for PYRO (my screen darkener) to kick in, it messes up sunclock. Anyone know how to exit sunclock?

However, I suppose that's not the way one should do it because when I restartet Sunclock the world stayed dark. No sun at all. I exited Sunclock again and startet Laser C to do some other work. The first thing Laser C suggested was to reboot the system :-(. Dipl.-Inform. Rainer Klute klute@heike.informatik.uni-dortmund.de Univ.

I haven't tried this yet, but just today i unuucoded it, and i
remember it said something like this:
Usage:
<single-click left mouse button> : show dialog-box with some options
<double-click left mouse button> : exit
Hope this helps!

Hi, I just have a real quick question that I'm sure everyone (except me!) and their brother knows, but how do you know what version of TOS you have when you know you don't have TOS1.4 (and the neat little rainbow thingy that comes with it, absolutely free)? -Mike baffoni I couldn't have said it...ain't no one here but us clouds.... or was that clods ....?

The TOS 1.0 says (C) 1985, 86 in its info box. BlitterTOS mentions 1987 if I remember it right. If you click on 'Hardcopy' in the DESKTOP menu, you will get a safety alert box in BlitterTOS, but not in TOS 1.0. If you worked with both versions, you'll also be able to detect the version just from the speed of window redraw. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Claus Brod, Am Felsenkeller 2, Things.
