(attr math -ex) That should do it. --- RiBBS v2.10 * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/343) Public Message Message # 2050 *MM1 TECH Echo* To : All Osk Users From : Calvin Dodge Subject : new math module Date : 94/02/16 02:17:45 Folks, here is the latest version of the math module. If you downloaded a previous version please replace it with this one (edition 1.6). The previous versions had bugs in the long int to ascii and sin/cos routines. These bugs are now dead. I hope you find calsmath to be a time-saver! --- RiBBS v2.10 * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/343) Public Message (Rec) Message # 2070 *MM1 TECH Echo* To : Calvin Dodge From : Paul Myles Subject : Re: math all versions Date : 94/02/15 11:11:00 Next Reply is Message 2078 CD> I'll load Basic and see if I get the same error.

Other than that It did make the calculations a lot faster. I tried it with an astromany plotter program called EPHEM from the EFFO_PD# files. Using a freerun mode for screen updating went from 7sec down to 1sec.

Since his doesn't stick I can just unlink it and load MATH.13.

Anyway, the Cal8math.lzh is working 100% Sorry, I tend to assume the worst (plus I had not made the cal6math connection). I'm new at the shareware game and so am not familiar with documentation standards. I'll learn, though. --- RiBBS v2.10 * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/343) Public Message Message # 2078 *MM1 TECH Echo* To : Paul Myles From : Calvin Dodge Subject : Re: math all versions Date : 94/02/16 22:25:27 Previous Reply is Message 2070 On Tuesday, February 15th, 1994 - Paul Myles wrote: CD> I'll load Basic and see if I get the same error.

Once again, I'm glad to see someone who finds my math module to be worthwhile. --- RiBBS v2.10 * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/343) Public Message Message # 2079 *MM1 TECH Echo* To : Paul Myles From : Calvin Dodge Subject : Re: CalsMath Date : 94/02/16 22:27:36 Previous Reply is Message 2071 On Tuesday, February 15th, 1994 - Paul Myles wrote: PM> Warren, PM> I still have the old math MATH.13 and his MATH.14 in my commands.

It does work properly. --- RiBBS v2.10 * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/343) =*= FIDO ECHO MESSAGES MENU =*= <1> Scan \ <2> Read > OS9 Echo mail <3> Leave / <4> Scan \ <5> Read > CoCo Echo mail <6> Leave / <7> Scan \
