Oberon update: I've rewritten the directory listing code for Native Oberon to make use of the built-in sort routine (reverse) to find the most recently saved files and clean up the columns a bit. Looks much better and serves a purpose at the same time.
I've also modified my version of Native Oberon to autodetect the display sizes and increase the default font used when at 1024x768 or larger displays. I have both 640 and 1024 installs and it was annoying so I fixed it. ;-) The code is not as compartmentalized as I had hoped. The `advertised' OOP style got lost a bit me thinks? Finding the right procedure to modify in a way that will not destablize all the other modules takes a good deal of effort. I've also added the W31 install of ETH Oberon Sys 3 here. It's nice to not have to reboot to go from DOS to W31 to Oberon. This W31 version uses the FAT drive to access directories and subdirectories and even uses Winsock for it's telecom. It's a bit behind my other installs in many Oberon specific functions and with the need for Windows accomodations not all of Native is transferable (even though in theory it should be). I now have two Natve/Oberon/Beta installs, one W31 Sys 3, and one Oberon V4 (development environment for writing Windows apps). Each is a bit different from the other with Oberon V4 being _very_ different other than the shared language. I am slowly adding the Alpha modules to my Beta installs to update them as much as possible. For those who are unfamiliar with what Oberon is, it's legacy friendly backwards compatible to `386s with 8 meg of memory and 10 meg of hard drive space available. I think I had guess-timated it at 5 meg, it's actually more like 7 meg with everything installed including games, graphics apps, the compiler, telnet, ftp, email, and a secondary GUI that is much more graphics oriented than the vanilla user interface. If you uncompress ALL of the source code, tutorials, templates and documentation this jumps to about 25 meg total. ETH Oberon is very very small. Charles Angelich The Ghost in the Machine!
