This is probably a pretty stupid question, but here goes: How can I get Macsbug the auto-black DA and Macsbug the debugger to work at the same time? Changing the name of one doesn't seem to do the trick... You can mail the answer to me personally if you want, at jay@astro.as.utexas.edu Thanks.

Name auto-black 'macsbug' and name macsbug 'disassembler'. That will
do it.

Changing the name of one doesn't seem to do the trick... Simply rename Auto-black 'disassembler' (or rename Macsbug, I'm not sure which one you rename, but it IS important.) -- ============== xmjschm@harvspha.BITNET ============= "Your soul is mine, Mike Schmelzer xmjschm@hscfvax.harvard.edu fork it over." ===================================================== - Salem 66

Changing the name of one doesn't seem to do the trick... To do this, you would rename Macsbug to Disassembler, and Auto-Black to Macsbug.

Changing the name of one doesn't seem to do the trick... What version of Macsbug-the-debugger are you using? When I switched to Macsbug 6.x from Macsbug 5.4 (also known as Macsbug 5.5, or Macsbug-the- Mandelbrot-Set-Program), I discovered that renaming Macsbug-the-debugger "Disassembler" no longer worked. Presumably, this is because it accesses the Macsbug file on disk for certain resources (the user-defined macro stuff, which I haven't really gotten into yet). With Macsbug 5.4 and previous versions, you could rename the AutoBlack INIT "Macsbug", and the real Macsbug "Disassembler", and they would coexist (only on a 512/Plus/SE, of course). FadeToBlack 3.0, which recently came over comp.binaries.mac, is the only other screensaver I've seen which is the functional equivalent of AutoBlack (actually, it's quite a bit nicer), using the alternate screen for drawing & instant updates. But my hard drive spends time occasionally connected to a Mac II, which means instant death for Auto Black and FadeToBlack... if you only run on a Plus, FadeToBlack might be a better choice than AutoBlack... Now if FadeToBlack could only be a standalone INIT and not have to mess with the System file... :-( -- ========== ....... ============================================= Ken McLeod :. .: felix!dhw68k!thecloud@ics.uci.edu ========== :::.. ..::: InterNet: thecloud@dhw68k.cts.com //// =============================================

Hi, I obtained MacsBug (Version 5.4?) packaged with LightSpeed Pascal (2.0). Now, is MacsBug "free", I mean can I get version 6.? from somebody and not break any taboos ? (What I really mean is "can somebody send me a copy of the latest MacsBug that works on a IIci please ?) If this is a no no, who do I get it from and how many legs will it cost me ? Thanks, Michael.
