As the proud owner of a new Mac, I've been catching up on the various
newsgroups. I've got a number of questions that I haven't seen answers to:
1) I'm using macterminal version 1.1. I can't seem to get the posted
versions of macput and macget to work. I haven't worked with it too much,
but has someone got these up and running? How should these things be used?
2) Does someone have the pinouts needed to make a cable to connect the
modem/printer port to a normal RS323 terminal line? I don't remember seeing
them in the documentation.
3) I'm looking for detailed info into programming the innards of the Mac.
Have these things been published anywhere yet? I currently have no
language, but I'm looking for a good C compiler now. I'll even pick up
MacPascal if it has the info on the insides of the machine.
suggestions,pointers?
4) Any recommendations on good C compilers?
5) Anyone out there have any good applications/programs they want to share?
I've got an archive of net.sources, but not fa.info-mac or net.micro.mac
(until now).
6) Anyone have a date when Wizardry will be available?
7) Anyone out there use Macproject? How well does it work?
thanx, as they say, in advance.

A friend of mine is purchasing a Mac in a couple of days and has a few
questions:
1) Where can I find the cheapest 256K chips (I plan on
upgrading when the warranty runs out or I feel like
gambling).
2) Where can I get Inside Mac, how much does it cost,
and what do I get for my money?
3) Where do I get information about public domain software
available for the macintosh?
4) Will a cheap 1200 baud modem (I saw an advertisement for
one at $230) work with MacTerminal? Do I need special
connectors?
If I get sufficient response, I'll post a summary...
Thanks for your time.
