582.0. "Looking for DiskParam (SPECTRE Utility)..." by TIMAS1::HEFTI () Thu Aug 31 1989 09:47

I am a user of SPECTRE128 ( MAC emulator on the atari) and I am looking
for a program named  "DiskParam" . I know that its on GEnie in the 
Spectre Support Area --> file #50 (DiskParam.SIT). 
But unfortunatly I have no access to the networks in the states.
Is there anybody out there who has "downloaded" this file already? 
Could somebody upload this file to our "EASYNET"?

PS : What does DiskParams

On the MAC, you'vo got a little bit of "battery-backed-up RAM" (Saves 
Setup Parameters). Since the ATARI don't have battery backup, it uses
to be the SPECTRE would think it was a brand new MAC every time it was 
started. In other words it looses his SETUP.
DiskParams saves this setings and restores it during startup.

                                         Thanks in advance
