No. This includes electronic versions of the RKRMs, IIRC. However, the RKRMs have no section on the dos.library, which is covered in the ADos Manual from Bantam books. Well, sort-of - it's a lousy source with little information whatsoever.

No one interested? I'm saddened, probably a sign that there's only consumers left in the scene mostly now. :'(

Might help if you cleared out your PM drawer?

I would buy it, but there is a problem if it is what I want. The full version.

Ralph Babel saved my ass back in the day. I am not about to disrespect him now by buying a copy of his work, not without him getting a cut.

I doubt he remembers talking, but a couple times when I had an issue reviewing GVP kit, he was at the end of a phone ready to talk me through it. He did that for a lot of journalists and end users at the time, I remember.

I think I will buy the German version and struggle with that instead.

Nothing personal here, but that's the way I feel.

AFAIK R Babels book, the 700 odd page one, was withdrawn from publication in English, but was published in German. Am I wrong about that?
