!AWDec94/Goodies/FYE02/Docs/Bugs

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
- Under RO 3.10, the program and all the desktop crashes when all
the settings boxes are on display and a mode change occurs. Certainly a bug
in the Acorn's BorderUtils module. This could be cured either by
loading the BorderUtils 0.02 supplied with Acorn's !NewLook
application or using the 2D templates. 

- The current wimpslot settings (see !Run file) is suitable for 
about 26 pictures displayed at time. 
More picture will cause FYEO exiting without any error message 
due to a lack of memory. If you would like to display
more pictures at time, increase wimplsot (about 32 or 64 K more).
