I just got the equation library. Objects 266 and 267 are unnamed. One is automatically attached to the HOME directory and one is not, so there must be some purpose to attaching these things, yes? Could somebody tell me what it is? And what is the purpose of objects 266 and 267? -- edp

I never got around to trying a PEEK of any sort. I wish I could play with the Catalog utility directly (ROMID 266): I think it might make some of my own development easier... -- -- dove@ucscg.ucsc.edu Ray Rischpater -- dove@ucscb.ucsc.edu (408) 426-0716 --As usual, all of the opinions contained herein are my own...

Eric, I don't remember where I saw it in the EQ manual, but I do remember seeing somewhere a list of what all the objects were. Basically, if I remember right, those two are just sort of maintenence/utility functions to make the EQ card operate. Maybe batches of subroutines or constants... Take a careful look thru the manual and see what you can find. )>/----------------------------------------------------------------\<( )> Michael VanLoon--Iowa State University of Science and Technology <( )> Bitnet: "TNCU2@ISUVAX" Internet: "TNCU2@CCVAX.IASTATE.EDU" <( )> Hewlett-Packard, Macintosh, and Jazz forever! <( )>------------------------------------------------------------------<( )> "My hair has a mind of it's own.
