thanks & wrastop()

[Aaron Zimmerman]

Well, I should thank you all... I had some problems getting my 3b1 doing what
it's supposed to, on account of a lack of documentation, and I'm now running
okay.. It is a drag, though, that there's no way of starting up the machine if
the /etc/rc file is screwed and you don't have the floppies (which was my
case, though that's now rectified).

Still lacking documentation, I've been able to learn nearly everything I need-
ed from extensive experimentation. There is, however, one command which I must
use... The wrastop() command. I'm told it takes seven or so arguments???
I need to be able to get graphics on the screen...somehow... However it's
done, I'm willing to do it. I believe that the 'window' system is supposed to
be fairly straightforward, but, not knowing even the arguments to the
command which puts a bitmap onto the screen (wrastop), I haven't much hope.
If someone would be willing to give me a description, sell me some manual
pages, show me the source code to a program which does graphics, *anything*,
I'd be forever in debt.

Also I'm curious on how to change the system font (I think I remember hearing
that it's possible?) Damn, I really need those manuals...

Oh, yes - one last thing... Where can I get memory expansion? I could really
go for another two megs!
