Aha! This is how we find out what's goin on inside Commodore; read their job postings! So, we finally have informal confirmation that (a) device-independent graphic libraries are a project underway, and (b) new graphics hardware is under development. And they need new people to help them do it, so they're serious. I'm sure asking for more detail is asking too much. I suppose I could apply for the job and glean what I can from the interview... Heck, maybe I could even get the job... -- First comes the logo: C H E C K P O I N T T E C H N O L O G I E S / / \\ / / Then, the disclaimer: All expressed opinions are, indeed, opinions. \ / o Now for the witty part: I'm pink, therefore, I'm spam! \/

Newsgroups: comp.sys.amiga.tech Subject: Execute() function call Summary: Expires: References: Sender: Reply-To: jdickson@jato.Jpl.Nasa.Gov (Jeff Dickson) Followup-To: Distribution: Organization: Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA Keywords: Hi all! The documentation I have that describes the Execute() system call is very skimpy. It indicates that the Execute command call returns a value, but says nothing further about it. I want to get at the actual return code that the program Execute performed set, but I suspect that the value it returns is nothing more than the success or failure of the Execute() system call itself. Is this a correct assumption? If so, is there an easy way to go about this ? If you supply an input file (to Execute()) from which to additionally submit commands, is the CLI data structure the same as it was initially when the command string argument of Execute() was performed? I am running V1.3 . Much appreciative, Jeff -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff S. Dickson jdickson@zook.jpl.nasa.gov
