Help Magic error

[Guillaume Tello]

I wrote a prog that uses the Trap #6, a user reports that under Magic he
gets:
EXCEPTION PROCESSING 38: Trap #6

Could it be that MagiC uses this trap???

I can not see that MagiC use this Trap, maybe an other program

Nothing about your problem. But if you use some Traps please tell this in some
newsgroups, so that I can add this to tos.hyp[1]

An other thing, please use the XBRA method for change vectors:
http://toshyp.atari.org/en/003009.html

In assemble (example)
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------
DC.b 'XBRA'
DC.b 'RSVE' ; change to your ID
oldxbiosv: DC.l 0
t14_xbios: your new function
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------

Wiht this method can tools like SysInfo show what program are hooked in
vectors.

An example from my Milan
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------
Adr Vektorname Programm-ID
----------------------------------
0070 AVI L4/VBlank NVDI
0084 Trap#1/GEMDOS DYJT->Trpp->EPro->CHN1
0088 Trap#2/AES+VDI MN3D->ICFS->Trpp->NVDI
00B4 Trap#13/BIOS Trpp->CHN1->RSVE
00B8 Trap#14/XBIOS Trpp->NVDI->EPro->CHN1->nTOS->RSVE
0114 STMFP/200 Hz SCKM->TREN
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------

Hi, it looks like the user reported a false error. The problem came
from another thing. So this is solved.

Okay, but the Trap is only used during the execution of Zero-X, it is
not resident.

It is easy to find is Magic uses Trap #6, or any other: with Steem
Debugger .

but the Trap is only used during the execution of Zero-X, it is not
resident.

This should also documented.
