Hey all you communications hackers out there! I have access to a couple of Symbolics lisp machines, including telnet access from my Mac via Unix. Now, the question: do any of you know of any programs that allow Mac to use the X3.64 control codes that the lisp machines use? I am getting tired of the Mac emulating a dumb terminal. Thanks in advance.

Help! I keep seeing messages about all this wonderful software being posted to net.sources.mac but when I look there is nothing! Is this because they are failing to cross the Atlantic to the UK. Whatever the reason can anybody post them direct to me or explain why I am not getting them and a possible solution for the future.

Many thanks to the people who replied to my message requesting help in explaining why I was having problems in obtaining stuff from net.sources.mac. I have now found out why I was having problems. Without informing anyone our site has unsubscribed to net.sources.mac. No wonder I couldn't get anything!! No effort will be spared in reversing this terrible act!!!! uucp: ...!ukc!stc!iclbra!jel John Lockwood.

Here is a strange problem I encountered with my one week old Mac+. One of the first things I did was to install the programmers switch, and try out the mini-debugger. Great! I could return to the Finder with a simple `G 40F6D8`... But after two days (I only had to use it once) it STOPPED WORKING! The only thing that happens is that the mouse freezes up...! So I removed the switch and tried pushing with a screw driver: same result. I tried booting with different disks, but it just wouldn`t work anymore.. I remember reading some messages, but all were implying that the switch was incorrectly mounted, which I really don't think is the case here... Does anybody have any suggestion? -- Eric Mazur _A_R_P_A_-_N_E_T: mazur@harvard.harvard.EDU _B_I_T_N_E_T: mazur@harvunxh.bitnet _U_U_C_P: /----- mazur / /--- _d_a_s_y!mazur {seismo,harpo,ihnp4,linus,allegra,ut-sally}!_h_a_r_v_a_r_d! ------ \ \___ _l_a_s_e_x!mazur \_____ _m_o_l_p_h_y!mazur

Well, well well... I tried my interrupt key again tonight, and (you've probably guessed it) it works again. Every time! The only thing I did was post the previous article!! I really don't understand. Has anybody else had similar experiences. I should add to my previous message that I tried many things last night: booting from different disks, cache on and off, appletalk on and off, keeper "on" and "off", different Systems and Finders (3.1 and 3.1.1; 5.1 and 5.2). And now - all of a sudden - my Mac bombed (I was trying to get Experlisp 1.04 to run on the Mac+; does it work on the Mac+?), and I thought I'd just give it another try. I wish I could find the cause of this strange behavior. What does it depend on? Any suggestions? The various messages I have seen on this subject, suggest that there is quite some confusion. Does anybody have some more detailed information? -- Eric Mazur _A_R_P_A_-_N_E_T: mazur@harvard.harvard.EDU _B_I_T_N_E_T: mazur@harvunxh.bitnet _U_U_C_P: /----- mazur / /--- _d_a_s_y!mazur {seismo,harpo,ihnp4,linus,allegra,ut-sally}!_h_a_r_v_a_r_d! ------ \ \___ _l_a_s_e_x!mazur \_____ _m_o_l_p_h_y!mazur
