Why would the extension not show at all though? Does AP check the commands of all the extensions and removes any extensions with conflicting commands?
No, AMOS Pro does not check for conflicting names when it loads. SamuraiCrow asked me a few months back to sort out a conflicting name problem with some Blitter commands in 2 extensions, but in the end I didn't need to do it.
If you load 2 extensions that have 2 identical commands, I have no idea which one AMOS would use when compiling or running your program. I would guess the first one in the list, example:
Extension in slot 2 with command Cls Turbo *might* be used before the Cls Turbo command in an extension in slot 5. (NB: There is no such command, afaik, it's purely an example)
This is why many extension commands are preceeded by either the authors initials, or an abbreviation of the extension name (e.g. Jd Pseudo Palette - a command by Joerg Dommermuth from his Jd Colour extension).
Krakerman, when you said, "but when I click to run AMOSPro it says can't find extensions", do you mean it comes up with an error/message?
When you say, "can't find extensions", do you mean all the extensions or just the two(TOME & Range) that you recently installed?
It's usually because of a problem with the last extension you added. You really need to run SnoopDOS to find out exactly which extension is causing the problem, and try to work out what the problem is from there.
