To run a program, you must type the program name followed immediately by a pair of closed parentheses "()", no spaces, and then press enter. For example, if I wanted to run tankers, I would type "tankers()" into the home screen (without quotes of course) and hit enter.

the rison that var-link puts only one ( after the program name is so you can type arguments in befor typing the closing ). asm programs don't usualy take arguments.

Make sure you run the program that has a filetype of "ASM" or something like that, ppg's aren't executable I don't believe. But then again, it's been a while since I held a 68k in my hands.

first of all ghost buster comes whith a read me, read it, it is helpful. no ppg's can't be run by the ams. they are an asm program that has been compressed so they have to be dcompressed and launched and that is what the asm "part" of games is.

type ghostbuster("tdat") it will turn tdat into an ASM progam that will run on the titanium. discard the asm program titled tankers because it is now useless.

sorry you need to put an empty string for the out parameter so it knows to write over the old file.
