How create new file in amiga os 39 ?
-
I've not used AOS3.9 but , there is something fundamentally wrong with the usability of an operating system if people have to ask questions like this.

Use the appropriate application, create the file and save it.
If you are looking for a "create new file" of any of 1000 given filetypes like Windows offers when you right mouse on the desktop, old OS's aren't for you, in out of the box form anyways.

1) Use ed , and just quit&save.
2) Use GeekGadgets (ixemul.library needed) bin/touch command to create a file
3) Fastest way : from CLI type :
echo "" >ram:file.txt
to create a null file named file.txt located in Ram:
P.S. Just read your reply, you need to know what parameters contains the config file, so if there is none existant, let the game create one on the first run (what usually happens) and then modify it with a text editor.

Love Ed, it's a great little tool :-) Just open up a shell window and type Ed
Then when you close it, it will ask do you want to save, then copy the file to where you want it :-)

Yeah Ed's okay until it decides to overwrite the top line whilst saving the file with a line from further on in the text. This has always happened to me on OS2 and OS3, not sure whether Ed's been fixed for OS3.9 but I never ever trust Ed, so I hardly ever use it.
