;GDOS on the TT.
;
;Well, after a certain amount of thrashing about, here's an ASSIGN.SYS
;that works in all TT resolutions (yes, even TT LOW, but GDOS 
;applications have a certain amount of problems with the 40 column 
;screen width).
;
;NOTE that at this time Atari GDOS 1.1 is the only flavour that 
;works, however G+PLUS/G+FLAIR owners should be able to contact 
;Codehead software for an update to those programs.
;
;This file can be used INTACT as your ASSIGN.SYS. Simply rename it.
;
;NOTE that this ASSIGN.SYS started out in life as the one from the 
;SLM804 GDOS DRIVER disk, shipped with the Atari lasers. It has the 
;SLM804 installed as the default printer. Wherever changes have been 
;made to the original file, comments are inserted to explain.
;
;(Also note that the original file I uploaded didn't work because I 
;had left in TABS....the ASSIGN.SYS file shoulb be plain ASCII, with 
;NO CONTROL CHARACTERS)

;<slap> That's it!
;
;If you use another GDOS program like Timeworks and install fonts with 
;it's INSTALLER, you must edit it before booting into a resolution 
;other than the ST resolutions. The salient point about converting an 
;ST ASSIGN.SYS to work on the TT are that the extra screen drivers 
;must be named, and must have fonts installed. Using an ASCII 
;text-editor, simply copy out the high-resolution screen fonts and 
;paste them back in for the TT-MEDIUM and HIGH resolutions.

;While I've tested this system on our TT, I can not guarantee that it
