A-render is on Fred Fish disk 99. It can be found at
MVCAD3::user0:[Amiga.FF99]arend.arc

P.S. instuction to unpack the arc are in MVCAD3::USER0:[Amiga]

1135.2 | Already have it, but... | DECEAT::LANDINGHAM | | Fri Feb 05 1988 08:55 | 14 |
| Yup, that's where I got it. I downloaded it, used the "two_drive"
script to make Master and User disks. The script failed near its
end because "startup-sequence" seemed to be missing from the archive.
At this point I assumed that the proper way to run it was to have
the <User Disk> in drive df0: and the <Master Disk> (containing
the executables) in df1:. I carefully followed the installation
and tutorial texts, and had no problems until I tried to use DEFINE.
After some experimentation I found that if I invoke DEFINE without
any argument it prints a usage message and then returns. If I repeat
the DEFINE command with no args I get the GURU. I've tried using
a larger stack size (up to 16K) without success.
I am wondering if anyone else has acquired A-Render and have run
into similar problems. Thanks, all!

1135.3 | Try installing it again. | AYOV10::ATHOMSON | Equal Rites | Fri Feb 05 1988 09:12 | 21 |
| I have A-render from Fish #99 and define works ok. The only differences
are that I had to use the single drive installation procedure and
the <master disk> I started with was straight from a Fish library
and not downloaded from anywhere.
It might be a problem with the dual drive installation procedure
so you could try creating another <user disk> using the single drive
process.
Hmm.... after re-reading your note I see that you are using the
executables from the <master disk> - if you followed the installation
procedure correctly you should not have to do this - the <master
disk> can go back onto the top shelf along with all your other master
copies :-). The installation leaves you with a bootable <user disk>
complete with startup-sequence and after executing "A-render v.3
<user disk>:A-render/programs/delete-docs-and-pics" (or something
like that) you're left with quite a lot of room on the disk as well.

P.S. I didn't like it.

| Would you consider sending me your startup-sequence and
system-configuration files? These do not seem to be present in
the archive. Thanks!
|
1135.5 | Your choice. | AYOV10::ATHOMSON | Equal Rites | Fri Feb 05 1988 10:29 | 12 |
| As I don't have a modem I can't just put it up on the net somewhere.
AND as I'm in the UK, interoffice mail can take up to 2 weeks to
get to the states (where I presume you are), you may be quicker
trying to get another copy of Fish #99 elsewhere........
BUT - if you still want it I can send you either a complete <master
disk> or a useable <user disk> whichever you want, rather than just
the system-startup and system-configuration files.
mail me.

If there is a problem with the ARC file on MVCAD3 I will
re-build the ARC and upload it again. Also I work in
Shrewsbury MA. and I be happy to make you a copy of FF #99.
