Title: Couple of Very Simple Questions
Post by: DropPunk on March 24, 2019, 05:11:15 PM

It's been awhile since I've played in Aros and I grabbed a D520 recently.  I'm all installed but I find myself unfamiliear with the Amiga OS all around. 
1st Question:
When a process hangs, how do I kill it (i.e. TOP in Linux).

2nd Question:
When running JanUAE in full screen, how do I exit back to Aros?

3rd:
Is there a way to tie the Januae emulator to an ADF file so when I double slick the ADF, it just runs it in emulation?

Thanks guys and sorry for the dumb questions!!

To kill a hung process you could try the 'remove' option from the tasks tab in Scout (from sys:system/scout), although this doesn't always work and may end up in needing a reboot. To flip between the Janus screen and Wanderer just use left-Amiga (left-Windows for a PC keyboard) and m. As to launching an ADF, if you are using Icaros the tooltype in the default icon should already be pointing to the appropriate script to launch it, although I must admit this isn't something I've ever tried as I don't play with ADFs very often. Anyway, I hope you're enjoying your return to AROS  :).

Cheers,
