Hi Thomas, I just tried Maelstrom 1.4.0 under Executor/DOS 1.99o4 and Maelstrom 1.4.1 under Executor/Linux 1.99o4+. They both work fine. I don't know if you've successfully run Maelstrom in the past or not. It sounds like you don't have refresh on, which could be the result of a scewed configuration file. Make sure you have the file "4D61656C.ECF" in the CONFIGUR directory that you're running Executor out of. I've included a copy of that file so that you can compare. Let me know how this affects things. --Cliff ctm@ardi.com // This Configuration file (4d61656c.ecf) was built by Executor Comments = "If Pretend sound isn't on, Maelstrom will complain during startup."; // WindowName = "Maelstrom"; BitsPerPixel = 8; ScreenLocation = { 0, 0 }; RefreshNumber = 10; Delay = 0; Options = {BlitInOSEvent, PretendSound, PassPostscript, NewLineToCR};
