-
- Hi Folks,
-
- ftp.cs.unm.edu:/pub/ardi/Executor_DOS contains two files: exldisk1.zip
- and exldisk2.zip. If you take these files over in binary and then
- unzip their contents onto separate floppies, you'll have a two floppy
- installation disk set that will install Executor/DOS 1.99l.
-
- Alternatively, you can unzip their contents onto your hard drive and
- install directly from there (this feature was not present in 1.99k).

- I will download 1.99l as soon as I can, but 1.99k still gives me an error
- mesage when running DNA Strider that the restriction enzyme library must be
- in text file format (it is already, so the message is not useful). 1.99k is
- also very slow on my 386DX/25 with 5 MB RAM. Also, I did install it from my
- hardisk... no floppies involved. Anyone else find this possible with "k"?
-
- Overall, it's much more stable than previous versions, so I think it's
- getting there. And my personal (though perhaps not popular) opinion on the
- Apple logo, etc. is: the priorities are stable, compatible and fast (i.e.
- useful) first, and leave the cute stuff for later (not that those things
- wouldn't be nice, but I want to keep my job first).
-
- Thanks,
