ListLib >Pipe:out
grep "dos.library" <pipe:out

works...

@ntromans

Sorry, but I don't understand if the same printing operations works on regular 1.5.2 or in any AROS nightly build. Just to understand if this issue should be addressed to AROS developers instead.

Not really a regression from WIP5, but definitely an issue in it. I just tried to print a 5 page document to my HP Laserjet 5 via par: (document output from PageStream's LJ5 driver). I get a 'not copied' message at the the shell and it only prints 1 and 3/4 pages (with the second part-page having to be ejected via pressing the printer's 'go' button). The same document prints fine via par: on my A1200. Looks like either not all the data is bing sent or it's being sent too quickly for the printer to capture it - I have the printer's parallel interface set to fast and the buffer to a maximum, 2000k (the file size is 1400k). The computer's parallel port is set to 'bidrectional' in bios.

Nigel.

P.S. I had a similar problem when using a usb to parallel interface to the Laserjet - I had to write a little Hollywood program to copy across the file in smaller chunks.

Edit: again, not specific to WIP5 as it also seems to be an issue with ABI1 nightly, but all of the ser: versions just seem to report 'no disk in drive' and send not data; tested on a working serial connection as shown by using the 'term' program. Will report this and the par: issue as a general bug once sourceforge sends me my login authentication e-mail...

I booted the DVD, and copied the file theme.var from
ENVARC: to my harddrive. Now it boots fine

The theme OS3.1 doesn't work, I'm afraid. Maybe it
should be disabled for now?

@Kotler

I guess you just need to boot using the DVD, and copy envarc: to your drive's one.

Hi,

I think there could be a problem with Theme/Decoration
in WIP5 and possibly older releases.

I've switched off Decoration for a more clean look (using
the Theme app). However, this will lead to a stuck boot,
with just a black screen. Something is stopping the start-up.

Could it be a script waiting for something, I don't know.

Is the Boot Menu working with Icaros or is there a Safe Mode,
how can I solve it?

Or do I just install everything again...

Thanks,

Regards,
Kotler.

That seems to be working, giving the output: 0x0113F260 50 65 62 0x4 dos.library

thanx a lot

looking really easy

Can't test this until 6 hours is gone or so, am at work.

But this I did yesterday!

Echo >* "Hello"

This works suggesting that it is not redirection into the CON:

Echo >Pipe:output "Hello" works also, suggesting it is not output from CON: or input to a file.

Echo <Pipe:output or if the file where redirected fromo Ram:output do not work, none of them!

BUT type Pipe:output Works, and also Copy Pipe:output to ram works, both methods remove also file "output" from pipe, suggesting Pipe: works as it should...

Therefore I come to the conclusion it has something to do with files that is open for input when it should be read to CON: redirected input.

It may be something wrong in Echo itself... ? but then again rx SAY do not output anything to CON: either.

This is part of test script I have. It was working about 2 month ago. Please tell me if it is working for you:

LibList >PIPE:output
grep "dos.library" <PIPE:output
