Interface - A little bit about DOMEN OS.

(C) Kotov CAV Inc. / AURYN / CPU
(C) Music: Davos Soft
As I installed Domen OS or
on some matters not related
to the case.
Please provide some comrades do not take offense to this
article, as the fact had place.
After reading in the ZX-Format, and then in
Spectrum Progress article on Pink Floyd, I
wanted to learn more about this miracle. And it was not a whim
person, not knowing what to spend time and money because iS-DOS
irritated me the order, and wanted something fresh and cool.
After reading that, apart from all other
Leningrad firms (Welcome corp. And so
etc.), distribution deals and PF
Logros, I wrote a letter back (in Logros), because we have had
with them kontakty.Otveta business from guys from Logros' and I
never received (I did not ask to send me PF on a freebie, I was
ready to pay for system. The more so that legitimate users for
a service or some other things; cm ZX-Format). Editorial
ZX-Format 'and did not deign to reply to my letter (and for
good reason).
So would it still lasted unknown
how much time, if by flipping
as a catalog company Scorpion (C. Zonov)
I have not found PF (by the way, there's still something
found that interesting, in connection with
than me and the entire editorial appeared
Questions to Zonov ... ) Ordered the PF, I
prepared to wait, but I do not think that
this is so long (I will not say how much).
As time passed and now, somehow, looking into his
mailbox, I found a treasured notice of the premise. When he
came home and printing message, I except a heap Price and one
floppy disks, found nothing. No documentation or letters (and,
incidentally, it's there should have been).
Joyful, I sat at the computer and
fed the disc drive. My joy quickly vanished (and in its place
came a slightly different sense). Pink Floyd boots, gave all
the signs, which should have been issue, and led the arrow at
the top of the screen. Attempts to press the keys corresponding
to a Sinclair joystick on the screen climbed some shnyaga.
After the fifth attempt, I began to think that when sending the
information has been corrupted on the disk, but by good
fortune, watching the convulsive flickering arrows, I
remembered one more creation, which were similar EFFECTS.
And so, zakonnektiv Kempston joystick
connector, I am convinced that Pink Floyd came to my set up on
the mouse! And no detection of the presence of this devaysa ...
Thinking that there must be at least some SETUP, I began to
look for him (at the time appears on the display "press CAPS
SHIFT + S to SETUP "its too late to press). Climb on the disk
using RDM (By RAY), I dug a lot of interest in connection with
which I have a lot of voprosov.A namely: "How is this going to
read the user does not have a mouse?" and "Why do not you run
SETUP?" . In SETUP I still came in (shrugging right keys
immediately after the command RUN) AND CHANGE (Oh lord!)
Administration on dzhoystik.Perezapustiv PF (that could not
do), I tried to work with applications (was loaded session
"Full load"). I must say that the system generated an error on
inability to write the application tools
on RAMD (RAM Disk). Ignoring the error, I tried to work with
the remaining applications, but nothing except SYSINFO
did not want to boot. Frustrated, I went
sleep. The next day they came to ELF'u,
I tried to run on Pink Floyd
it Pente (512K - COOL!). Great was my joy when the PF start up!
and even the mouse worked properly (ELF recently plugged this
device itself). Having studied the section of the description
on the PF, which dealt with the system settings, I finally
found information on how to get to work on Pink Floyd 128K
machines.
Arriving home, I'm two hours busy with installing the
driver, virtual memory. The driver did not want to put,
I do not know what to do, but finally
I visited the bright idea to remake
STARTUP file in Word 'e (before that I
tried to do this operation in Khokhlovskiy Editor 's). There
has been a regular miracle-Pink Floyd run! And the process of
developing a new system (results, see the "System" under "Test
Chamber")
I honestly do not know who to blame for the fact that I
had the system tuned to the Scorpion (and I'm writing that I
have a Pent 128). But gnawing at me one question-firm Scorpion
was not on the oficial distributors Pink Floyd, which was
published in the ZX-Format 'e. Whether I am a legal user of PF
or not. This is not an idle question (see ZXFormat # 5). And
then, to doubt the integrity of the firm's Scorpion, I have
cause (I'll only be happy if it does not
so). No, you judge for yourself how licensing can be a program
that is similar to a working replica: a lot of deleted files,
the system is set up explicitly a minimum configuration of the
machine. One of the sections in the STARTUP 'e just did not
execute (the "First Start"). How does it all mean? Is firm
Scorpion, and in particular, Sergey Zonov, knocking himself all
angles of heel in the chest and fighting for copyright
compliance, do they sunk to the level of ordinary pirates? I
ready to apologize if it is not. Or
it is still wine domain? So like they
should be responsible for their product (or
how?). No, really need to look into the matter. Every time I
prepare for a new number, give the pledge, do not run into
anybody, because, damn it, does not work ... What to say story
adventyuroy "Robin of Sherlock" ("Robin of Sherlock"),
published in the fifth Format 'e . RAY, when she saw there and
wanted to see how formatovskaya version works with the disk.
His little Kondraty not enough, when he saw his own version. He
disketiroval this game and it was published in ADVENTURER # 2.
In the Format 'e was also the same version, but without
captions and general boot for all three parts.
Mailing address you know (and who does not
know, see "Advertising"). And yet,
if you write, then write to the image do, and phrases like CAV
must die it is not necessary to dirty paper, anyway, I'll do
what I do.
... After writing this article, I
familiarized with the version of PF Welcome
corp. Results you can read in
"System" section. Here I want to say that the version of
Welcome has been configured correctly on boot sistemy.I not
take any perverted to start sistemu.Voobsche if the firm
"Scorpion" more faithfully receptive to their cause, then this
article you would not see. I beg to respond to those
people who ordered something from firms
"Scorpion" and "Form K", and tell whether they are satisfied or
not the work of these firms. I do not want to discredit, just
such statistics will be needed in the first
turn by these firms. After all, people
tend to notice only praise for his
address and nothing else. And I have a question for "Inforkom.
Some time ago and I offered RAY Cooperation Inforkom. "First,
the answer is we do not poluchili.Vo Second, the article RAY 'I
published not entirely, ie, cut off all information relating to
the Adventurer 'y, a converted LAST RAIDER' y (see Adventurer #
3) and our coordinates.
I repeat, no one else want to run down, but it turns out
that I was forced to to do so. You probably noticed that in
At each collision, I am writing this appeal, "Who would not
agree, please write" if you sent a letter to print, it appears
in magazine, this is guaranteed, and if not,
then, with a valid claim, I apologize
in the magazine. In the meantime, do not come
no rollback. It turns out I was right?
Thus, all true, as I write?
Yes, the end of the article is not turned on (or on?),
But, honestly, "grieved.
