This afternoon, after having used my GS for a while, I went to enter the control panel and noticed a "Visit Monitor" and "Memory Peeker" cda's on the list. They were still there after I entered system test and then reset, but were gone after a powercycle. My question is, how did I get them and can they be made permanent? (I had made no modifications to my system disk or other programs (Proterm)). thanks, dave -- David Pirmann pirmann@rutgers.edu Rutgers LCSR Operations pirmann@njin.BITNET

Press return after that of course. Then type >control c to re-enter basic. You should now have these CDAs available. I have a GS init that will automatically install these CDAs when you start up GS/OS. However, I think I first saw it in Call -A.P.P.L.E., so it's probably copyrighted, even though it's only a few bytes long. A better alternative would be to get NiftyList, which does everything these CDAs do and lots of other stuff. (Plus, it has a nicer interface.) -- {_ "It's not how high you are, _} Disclaimer: Ben Rudiak-Gould _} it's Hi, how are you?" {_ Opinions are mine... benji@euler.berkeley.edu {_ -- Mike Sugarbaker _} Mine...

On the rom 3 machine, there is a value you can poke somewhere in the battery ram and the rom will install them during every cold boot. I don't remember where or which value cause I only have the rom 1, maybe a tech note? Anyways, I wrote a temporary init that installs the CDAs when I boot GS/OS. -- ____ Y_,_|[]| Eric Mulholland {|_|_|__| ericm@sage.cc.purdue.edu //oo--OO ...!pur-ee!sage.cc!ericm
