[Oberon] ET.StoreAscii Native.Tool.txt

Therefore in Native Oberon try to obtain Native.Tool.txt 
by the same method.

Most Oberon users find scrolling better than in Linux.
What exactly is the problem?  The mouse is faulty?

Desktops.OpenDoc Native.Tool ~ is preferable to 
ET.Open Native.Tool ~.

> I am using OLR.

OLR showing "ETH Oberon / Linux X86 2015-04-25" is here.
System.Directory Native.Tool ~ shows that Native.Tool is 
not there.  You must have brought it from N.O.  Why?

The popup menu in this OLR is different from the popup in 
Native Oberon.  The N.O. popup has "EditTools.StoreUnix *";
the OLR popup doesn't have it.  Peter M. removed some 
commands deliberately?

See above.  Study Native.Tool in Native Oberon!

Older desktop and laptop machines are commonly discarded 
these days.  Can you find one and put N.O. on it for convenient 
reference and use.  Study Native.Tool, the compiler, the editor 
& etc. there. 

Harshness not intended but for your own peace of mind and 
progress, try to avoid unnecessary difficulties.  =8~)
