- Changes to BUFFER Tooltype
- ==================================
-
- A late addition was added for the BUFFER tooltype. Instead of
- stating an amount of memory, a percentage of memory can be given.
- For example:
-
- BUFFER=50%

- Using REXX With Music-X
- ==================================
-
- The Music-X 2.0 Manual descibes a module called RexxEdit that
- can be used to edit sequences programmatically using ARexx scripts.
- The manual does not detail how get ARexx set-up on your computer in
- the first place.
-
- ARexx is a commercial product created by William S. Hawes and
- is not provided on the Music-X disks. If you have a hard drive and
- AmigaDOS Release 2 or 3 has been installed, you will find that you
- already have ARexx. If you have a hard drive and are still using
- Kickstart 1.3, you will not have ARexx unless you purchased it from
- William S. Hawes directly or from an Amiga software dealer who sells
- ARexx.
-
- If you have a floppy only system, it is still possible to use
- ARexx if you have a copy of the ARexx system files "RexxMast" and
- "rexxsyslib.library". Here is what to do:
-
- 1) Make a copy of the Music-X 2.0 Program disk. Do not modify
- your original disk!
-
- 2) Delete "Format" and "DiskCopy" from the System drawer of
- the copy of the Music-X 2.0 Program disk.
-
- 3) Copy "RexxMast" to the System drawer on the Program disk.
-
- 4) Copy "rexxsyslib.library" to the "libs" drawer on the
- Program disk. This operation may require using the CLI or
- Shell, since there is no icon from the "libs" drawer.
-
- 5) The modified copy should now work as a minimal Rexx
- environment when you boot with the disk. You will not be
- able to format or copy disks though.
