Pause the picture
The Amiga can stop reading its screen for a while, so a test, a benchmark or a demo has the CPU and the chip bus to itself. Mouse, keys, commands and files keep working; only the screen capture stops.
- In the remote desktop: Pause the picture for 1, 5 or 15 minutes; Resume ends it early.
- For the AI agent:
amiga_pause_screen. - On the Amiga, by ARexx:
address AMIGENT 'PAUSE 300'and'RESUME'.
Updating an Amiga that runs Amigent already
- From the PC or Mac:
pipx upgrade amigent, thenamigent-setup --update. It puts the new amigentd on the Amiga by network. - On the Amiga: unpack the archive and double-click Amigent-Update in its drawer.
Key, certificate and the start line in S:User-Startup (TLSONLY too) stay. If the new amigentd does not start, the old one starts again. Older PCs keep working with the new amigentd; the pause needs both sides on 1.2.0.
