From my point of view there is not much difference between TURBOST and QUICKST. QUICKST is a little bit faster, but only a little! QUICKST is a programme, TURBOST a accessory which can be stopped at each time. Maybe you will need this if you don't have CON_FIX of Karsten Isakovic which corrects a little incompartibility of both! I hope, this will help you Uwe P.S. Have you seen NEWVDI yet? It should be the best solution! -- ================================================================================ Uwe Reder - Kopernikusstr.7 - D8074 Gaimersheim - Tel.: 08458/1239 e-mail: uereder@faui09.informatik.uni-erlangen.de

Please help me. Well, I got out Quick Index and did a little test. Here's the results: (This was run on a 1 meg 1040ST with TOS 1.4 on a mono monitor) Neither Quick ST 2.1 Turbo ST 1.8 TOS Text 100% 327% 315% TOS String 100% 1304% 1255% TOS Scroll 100% 134% 133% GEM Dialog 100% 284% 235% Memory Usage: 0K 23.7K 53.1K I've been using Quick ST II for a couple of months now, and haven't run into a single problem. (And with the CONS_FIX prg, I can run .TOS and .TTP in the Gemini Console window.) Quick ST is also cheaper, and you get a few goodies with it. (QINDEX.PRG, the desktop customizer prg....)

QuickST also has is disableable! The customizing prog allows it to be turned off. Later... -- ||| David W. Schultz ||| ||| uunet[!rutgers!mailrus]!frith!schultzd ||| / | \ Work Phone: (517)-353-8891 / | \ / | \ I want my, I want my, I want my STe / | \

Anybody else out there have Quick ST 2.21 -- on my system, whenever I try and use a command shell (ie gulam, bash) the cursor disapears, and echoing the vt52 command to turn it on makes no difference. Is this a known bug, or is it just me (strange, 'cause this didn;t happen with 2.1) - Todd --- -- Todd C.
