Re: Apple IIGS ROM listings and a general OS question

["Mark Cummings" <NOTfigjams@primus.com.au>]

I havn't actually tried it on a ROM-3, because I'm still testing mine. It
has a bit of a memory problem, just like the owner :)
I am trying to remember if there is even a quit button in Photonix, or
Photonix II. I'll have to check my versions again when I'm done on the
ROM-3.
But my main point was not to do with Photonix, but that programmers should,
and most do, use the documented calls if they wanted their programs to be
supported on upgraded Hardware or Operating Systems.
