 Oh lawks - give it a rest, will you David? sam-users would get terribly
 boring if people sent hundreds of messages saying not much more than Yes
 very nice. And why are *you* the one getting up-tight about it?

 I didn't get bucketloads of messages congratulating me on the new-look of
 my site when I moved it to mnemotech.ucam.org and completely redesigned it
 from the ground up. But then I wasn't expecting it - sam-users isn't the
 place for that.

 As for Stewart's site, yes it's a very good site - always has been - but
 I'm not sure I can see a lot about it which has changed much, apart from
 the frameset. A few nice extra logo graphics too, but really worth all the
 fanfare? Maybe I'm missing something.

RE: SAAEmu 0.61

From: Dave Hooper [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm a bit disappointed in Aley's SAAEmu 0.61.

1. Credit on the main screen (as requested!). Preferably 
immediately below the line that says Z80 emulator by FMS
 Aley Keprt, libraries by (c) FMS 1996. If possible, credit
should say SAA-1099 emulator (c)1999 Dave Hooper

Agreed 100%.  Credit should be given where it's due I say...

I was careful not to just say 'the future of windows'!  W2K is close to
complexity critical mass by the sounds of it, so it'll probably explode
before 2001.

Yay!

I finally got my newly created sam disks to work in my real SAM.

Excellent stuff...

That modplayer someone sent me eons ago is pretty cool. Now I've got to
start downloading countless mod-files to play...

Outwrite will be good once I work out how to use it... :) Took me a
while to work out how to load the manual! (I pressed random keys until
something happened!)

Oh, And Chris Pile's Defender. Wow! If you haven't played it, play it
now! (Or was I the last one to do so?) But did he have to make it so
damn difficult :)

Could be!!  But you did have to be a bit of a contortionist in the finger
department to play the original!!  Especially if you were 'unlucky' enough
to find one with buttons for up/down, rather than a joystick!!

Imagine trying to mimic the original twin-joystick control of Robotron-2084

 Bob Wilkinson.

While we're on the subject, I've got a couple of bugs/ideas I was going to
mention too.

First, I still can't seem to get the MOD Player to work.  Was this supposed
to have been fixed?  Or is it still being worked on, Dave?

Another sound bug, playing tunes which have envelopes enabled for saw waves,
etc (eg, a lot of Roger Hartley tunes) the enveloped channels sound out of
tune, especially at low frequencies.  I think it is the frequency of the
channel controlling the envelope frequency being heard as a tone, when it
should be silent?  I don't know, just a guess.

Now an idea for Wincoupe itself: I think it would handy if there was some
indication, perhaps on the title bar, of when the disk drives are being
accessed, so during some long pauses I can tell that it's not crashed.  Hey,
maybe you could even mimic the screen dimming as the drives are spun up! ;-)

David Laundon.

BTW, I think WinCoupe is excellent and I LOVE IT
