I noticed there’s a prodos textalker boot disk; I understand that not all disks include textalker because it takes up a good number of sectors and you only have so many to play with on a disk. What I am wondering is, do I have to boot from the textalker pro disk, and then switch disks, using the method described in the read me file with the emulator? Or is there a way I could have it read the image from –flop2 and run the programmes from that? I am trying to recall my own Apple days and I can’t say I ever remember running anything from the second disk drive; it seems like it was for data purposes only. So, am I correct in thinking the only way to access these non-talking disks is to exit the emulator and “switch” disks in drive 1?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> </span><span lang=EN-CA style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='color:black'>Thanks again.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> </span><span lang=EN-CA style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> </span><span lang=EN-CA style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:black'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center></span></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:black'>_______________________________________________<br>BlindApple mailing list<br><a href="mailto:BlindApple@bluegrasspals.com">BlindApple@bluegrasspals.com</a><br><a href="http://jaybird.no-ip.info/mailman/listinfo/blindapple">http://jaybird.no-ip.info/mailman/listinfo/blindapple</a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></body></html>
