Many people at Dartmouth have used MockTerminal during courses to allow
them to run compilers and terminals at the same time. But, as our whole
campus is wired for AppleTalk, MockTerminal is not terribly useful for
the rest. So ... Does anyone have the sources for MockTerminal so I can
adapt it to run on AppleTalk? Networking I know, all the screen management
and DA stuff I do not. Any leads would be appreciated.

the 'vt52' da was public domain, not shareware. if someone knows the
author of it, maybe he might be able to help out.

More MacPus for the MacPlus Today I tried to print a macwrite document on a double sided disk using the new imagewriter file and the new system. It printed fine for about ten lines then it printed a blurb of @'s and then proceeded to feed all of my paper through my imagewriter. I moved the document to another disk containing the old system, old imagewriter file and proceeded to print the document without any problem. Anyone else have this problem?? Another interesting quirk came when I tried to play Enchanted Scepters on my new mac+. The menus had no commands listed on them....just blank menus. I knew a few of the keyboard commands for this game and they worked fine...the game works....it just doesn't let you know what you can do or how you can do it? Comments, criticisms? (Nothing fancy here)

Apple did a lot of work in the new drivers to make more efficient use of the Mac and of the 9600 baud wire. It has been my experience that the new printer drivers, because they are faster, are more sensitive to handshaking than the old drivers. The solution is to make certain your imagewriter is handshaking with the Mac. Check your imagewriter manual: Dip Switch 2, switch 3 should be set for DTR handshaking (I think that it should be OPEN, but the correct setting is given in the back of the imagewriter manual.) Note: this setting is not compatible with the current release of the ThunderScan software -- you have to flip the switch back to Xon/Xoff handshaking to use thunderscan, then back to DTR handshaing to print reliably. Now I've got a printing problem: I have an old copy of MacLabeler. With the new system software, the disk labels it prints are 1/4" to wide to fit on the disk! Anybody else notice anything like this? --- David Phillip Oster ----------------------- ``What do you look like when you aren't visualizing?''

I solved it by flipping switch 2-3 on the imagewriter from closed to open (changing data protocol from Data Terminal Ready to XON/XOFF). I seem to remember having switched it the other way months ago to make some nonstandard program work. Apparently the new imagewriter file can't handle both protocols.

Enchanted Sceptres works on the Mac+ if you run the (Mac+) installer
program on the ES diskette first.
