Re-released: 3/25/93 - See below for re-release notes. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NAARJEK3.PRG - NAARJEK3.DAT --------------------------- DO NOT write to these files in ANY way or they MAY destroy themselves ! This includes... o Setting the FastBit. o Setting the READ WRITE / READ ONLY flag. o Setting the ARCHIVE, SYSTEM or HIDDEN bits. o Setting the time and date STAMP. o Squeezing or packing for run-time. o Basically writing to them on ANY level. o You CAN (re)compress them for archival storage or transference as this does not actually write to the file(s) in a way which alters them. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - For some as yet undiscovered reason, NAARJEK3.PRG _DOES NOT_ get along with CACHEnnn.PRG from Atari. It MAY run the first time but will almost certainly crash every time after. If you are using CACHEnnn.PRG from Atari you will need to disable it and CLEAR it from memory (disable it and reboot your computer). NAARJEK3.PRG _may_ conflict with other disk caching, so if you're experiencing crashing when the program tries to load, disable your cache. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Naarjek 3 works on ALL ST/STe/TT computers in medium or high resolution and SHOULD work on the new Falcon030. It has been tested with TOS 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 and 2.05 and has worked fine. Since the routines are NOT "hacks" (ie: software that only works under strict conditions or versions of TOS), it SHOULD work on ALL versions of TOS. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - RE-RELEASE NOTES: - - - - - - - - - o You can differentiate this "release" from the last by selecting number 4 from the Naarjek "Skill" menu. o An additional U-WORM (tapeworm) will be activated within Naarjek if it appears you are having inordinate difficulties. PLEASE read ALL of NAARJEK3.TXT before assuming a bug exists...unless, - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - a) the program crashes under conditions which can be consistently reproduced. b) the program "locks up" under these same conditions. otherwise it is HIGHLY likely that Naarjek has discovered your tampering and is playing games on you...:-) The REAL reason for this re-release. ------------------------------------ Michael at Suzy B's Software has mentioned to me that he could only get Naarjek to work if run from the root directory of drive A . I don't have a copy of the file I sent to Michael so I went back and recompiled it. As far as I can tell it works perfectly when run from ANY drive or directory. My best guess is that the copy I sent him was compiled while CACHEnnn.PRG was in memory, and was therefore corrupted. Hopefully this problem has been resolved. My apologies for any inconveniences this may have caused.
