Subject: Posting Programs to Usenet
I have received several requests from people who would like Info-Mac
postings to appear on Usenet as well (in net.sources.mac). Unfortunately,
I don't have time to do this for every program posted to Info-Mac;
therefore, I'm asking people who post to Info-Mac to post to net.sources as
well if at all possible.
If you definitely cannot post to net.sources, and you don't know anyone who
can, please tack a message onto your posting indicating that you can't, and
I'll do it myself.
Thanks.

There is a bug in the Transfer Accessory that I Posted a couple of days ago.
It causes bizarre crashes if you try to use it under Switcher. (Of course,
who needs it under Switcher??) anyway, I fixed it so that it can tell if
Switcher is running, and just beeps if it is. Maybe I will put in a dialog or
something...
I will post the new version in a couple of days, after I Try to break it some
more...

Could somebody tell me what do I need to do to use Aztec C developmetn
system with Mac hard disk ?
I have followed all the instructions given in the manual to install the
console driver in the system file. I can now successfully start the shell
from the hard disk, but it refuses to find other directories in the same
folder as a result, it does not find the cc compiler in bin directory and
so on.

Does anyone know how to obtain (from Apple or others) the file format
for MacDraw documents. I'd like to be able to process graphical
representations.

MacTerminal 2.0 has one "feature" that I cannot stand. When the backspace
key is toggled to a delete key, there is no repeat on it. You have to hit
the mother over and over again and I HATE IT! Sorry for the outburst, but
it gets a bit annoying when you realize that sitting there with your finger
on the key is getting you nowhere, and quickly. Alas and alack, why don't I
have the time to write all my own utilities so that I could go in there and
debug the thing for a couple of hours?
