Amiga shopper 25, Volume 3 tools dearchive problem
I want to get Edword running from this disk.
I've made a copy of the disk as it asks you to do in the corresponding magazine. I have formatted another floppy with the name My_prog. I have copied the Edword dearch file into the My_prog disk and run it but it keeps saying arp.library not found. So I ran the arp.library click me and after a load of disk swapping with workbench 1.3 it says the workbench disk is write protected and stops. I don't know what to do as I am new to this, I am running an Amiga A500 with like I said workbench 1.3. |

Try running the disk you made. As it says you will need to copy Shell and Cli from the Workbench disk and then when the disk boots just type edword at the command prompt.
I've attached a working disk if you are struggling with it. Last edited by Arnie; 08 December 2020 at 12:36. |

The My_Progs disk won't boot itself I have to boot with workbench and when I try using the shell and type in EdWord with the My_Progs disk in it asks for workbench then says Edword isn't a valid command.

Edword by Martin Reddy is a Workbench 2 app.
http://www.ai.sri.com/~reddy/edword/OldChanges.html This page documents many of the major changes and additions which have been made to EdWord Professional since the release of version 4.1 up to version 5.6. Changes which are new to V5.6 (and the previous V5.5) are marked with an appropriate icon. MAJOR CHANGE: EDWORD NOW REQUIRES WORKBENCH 2.0 OR ABOVE erm.. hows its written on the page.. not sure if it means 5.5 and above is wb2.. or 4.1 and up.. |

I think the version on the Amiga shopper disk I have is compatible with all versions of workbench since its an old version according to the Amiga shopper magazine.

The EdWord on Amiga Shopper works on WB1.3.
Only tested on WinUAE 4.4 |
