I am now giving up and asking for help here. Hopefully Mike W. you can help me here as you appear to visit these newsgroups. Oh, and I just bought Opus II (even though I already have ORCA/M, ORCA/Pascal, ORCA/ C, Designer, and Talking Toos), so you got a sale! The latest versions are very nice. The included manuals (PDF, Text, and Word docs) are really, really nice. I might even buy the source code. Oh, and I would think the two Johns did their coding in ORCA/M for Softdisk. I saw them hacking the IIgs monitor once but hopefully they actually bought your tools. Your work on the IIgs made a big difference to a lot of people, including me. 1. Is there any kind of scroll buffer or more command in the Orca/ Shell in text mode? Let's say I run "cat", I can't read everything in a large directory. I want to do "cat | more" but there is no "more". There really makes the text shell unusable for me. I can't find anywhere how to do something like a scroll buffer or a pager (more) command. Oh, and I really don't want to just run Prizm to get a scroll buffer. 2. How does one click on a source code file (CC, Pascal, etc...) and have Prizm open it? Prizm is launched (or rather the Text shell is launched and it launches Prizm) but it never opens the file. The same could be said of EXE files if you associate them when the Finder asks. Now that I have a nice MBP and a fast emulator I could actually use the Finder to organize my source files. But, without them opening when I click on them the Finder is useless.
