*****************[Ignore header path]******************* Below is the portion of the table of contents of the February issue of ANTIC magazine that I think will be of interest to ST owners. The complete TOC is available in comp.sys.atari.8bit if you are interested. -Kit- ******************************************************** FEBRUARY 1987 ANTIC TOC Theme: Word Processing page article 8 I/O BOARD Letters from Readers. 20 SAN FRANCISCO FOGGER A program that checks your letters, reports and term papers for readability. It gives a Fog, Smog and Flesch Index output. Both 8-bit and ST programs are provided. BASIC. 52 COMMUNICATIONS: ATARI'S BULLETIN BOARD An article on Atari's own BBS. They are now running 5 ST's with hard disks and logging 12,000 calls a month. The five run duplicate but separate data bases. The five telephone numbers are (408)-745-5308, -5970, -2642, -4758 & -5664. 60 USERS GROUP: WAACE The featured users group this month is the Washington Area Atari Computer Enthusiasts. This isn't a users group, per se, but an organization that exists to coordinate the efforts of all the users groups in the DC area. It also publishes the user group magazine 'Current Notes' that is highly respected thanks to Joe Waters. If I had to choose between it and ANTIC, I'd drop my ANTIC subscription first! ***********BEGIN THE ST RESOURCE SECTION********** 69 1ST WORD PRINTER DRIVER A generalized article on how to create a printer driver for use with your printer and Atari ST. 73 PRINTSET A short utility routine that automatically sends control codes to a printer when you turn your ST on.
