[comp.sys.apple] Multiscribe GS fonts / GSOS NDAs

MAR21AA@TECHNION.BITNET (Uri Srebro) (05/12/89)

1) What is the maximum number of fonts MSGS can handle ? When I run MSGS with a
lot of font (read: over 250 files in font dir) it frezes in the "Multiscribe GS
 versio..." screen even before the menue bar is drawen.

2) When booting GSOS, sometimes it only loads part of my NDAs. I have 64 NDAs a
nd usally get only 51 to 62 NDAs (I did get the full set once). Note that I all
ways boot from the same vollume, with the same RAM disk config.. Can someone ex
plain this ?

             Thanks in addvance

It sounds to me like you have MSGS 2.0 or earlier.  I think (it's been over
a year since this came up) that MSGS 3.0 will  handle all fonts, but I'm
not sure.

First of all, how do you access all of those NDA's?  With 5.0, there will
be scrolling menus, but with 4.0, neither the Apple menu or the CDA
menu scroll.  Second, I have about twenty in 5.0 and never have a problem.

I have MSGS v3.0...(I can't remember the exact version number) and It still won
t work.

 I'm using TES system's Master NDA (Public Domain scrolling NDA menue NDA)

           Any more help will be appreciated
