I tried replying to the original message, but our software
says it never heard of "cnt", so it bounced. I wonder how many
of the replies to the requests for information met the same fate?

I desperately need some source code examples of using the list manager. Could someone please either e-mail the code to me or else post it? I would prefer the code to be in Lightspeed Pascal, but any other language will do. Nirav Patel.

> > > I desperately need some source code examples of using the list manager. > Could someone please either e-mail the code to me or else post it? I > would prefer the code to be in Lightspeed Pascal, but any other language > will do. Nirav Patel. A couple of weeks ago, I desperately needed some too, and I finally tracked down an example written in C in an old issue of MacTutor. Unfortunately, I don't remember which issue, and I don't have it handy. Fortunately, I used the example to write my own routine in LS Pascal, and I do have that handy. My code is used to put a regular list of text into a modal dialog. The interface procedure, LModalSelect1, takes as arguments, the resource ids of a Dialog (DLOG) and a String List (STR#), the number of rows and columns in the list, the size of the cells, and the rectangle in which the list will be viewed. It returns the selected string and that string's index (in the range 1..n where n is the total number of cells). This procedure makes certain assumptions about the first three items in the given dialog's item list (DITL). The first item is the default button. The second is an enabled userItem that will be used to display the list. The third is a disabled userItem which will be used to draw the outline around the default button. What follows is three files: 1. UModalList.p - the unit that we're interested in. 2. Main.p - a main program to test it with. 3. ModalListOther.r - a Rez format file describing the resources that I used for my tests. ----------------file UModalList.p---------------- UNIT UModalList; INTERFACE USES ListManager; PROCEDURE LModalSelect1 (dialogId, stringListId : INTEGER;

xx A couple of questions. 1: I've got a very small localtalk network which is giving me a strange problem. The setup is: Mac SE Mac SE Mac+ LW+ | | | | | | | | |_______________|______________|_______________| The problem is that the Mac+ can't seem to find the LW+. Chooser won't turn up the LW when I choose the LW driver. However, if I cut off the two SEs so that the network is just the Mac+ and the LW, the problem goes away. The two SEs never seem to have any trouble finding the LW. All the software is compatible. I'm baffled. Anybody got suggestions? Next question, I've had a couple requests for a way to set the default font size in WriteNow at startup. I've got Fontonize so that I can set the default font, but how do I change the size?

Check your "AppleTalk Personal Network" manual, to be sure you've got it all cabled correctly. Any dangling cables at the ends? The manual also shows every connection using a connection box; at the ends, one of the two "outlets" is empty. I don't think it hurts to simply omit the connnection boxes at the ends, and just plug in the cable directly (for one thing, I've done it that way myself); but if you're doing it that way, you might try using the connection boxes to see if it makes a difference. Is the Mac+ connector plugged into its printer port? The modem port won't work. Of course, you've already checked all the connectors to make sure they're tight, so I won't even suggest that. :-) You've probably also had all the machines turned on and off several times in your trials; but if you haven't, cycle power on everybody. This has the effect of re-assigning the dynamic IDs, and can resolve conflicts. This is a rare problem (the whole point of dynamic IDs is to avoid such conflicts), but the manual mentions it, so I guess it can happen. You've said that all the software is compatible. That's a common problem, but if you've checked that carefully, then it's not your problem. If all else fails: you just might have a bad cable or connection box. (Connection box, probably, since the SEs and the LW can communicate across the length of the net.) I've never heard of such a thing, but hardware, like the flesh, is fallible. Try swapping the cables and boxes amongst the machines to see if the symptoms change. If *none* of that works, call a witch doctor; you've got gremlins. :-( Extra disclaimer: I'm not a LocalTalk guru; just a daily user. Perhaps an expert will chime in with better advice. ========================================================================== Rick Holzgrafe | {sun,voder,nsc,mtxinu,dual}!apple!rmh Software Engineer | AppleLink HOLZGRAFE1 rmh@apple.apple.com Apple Computer, Inc. | "All opinions expressed are mine, and do 20525 Mariani Ave. MS: 27-O | not necessarily represent those of my Cupertino, CA 95014 | employer, Apple Computer Inc."

Anybody got suggestions? >Check your "AppleTalk Personal Network" manual, to be sure you've got it >all cabled correctly. Any dangling cables at the ends? Good advice. Usually this sort of problem is caused by a broken cable. This is especially a problem if the wiring has been done in-house and the connections are none too good. >The manual also shows every connection using a connection box; at the >ends, one of the two "outlets" is empty. I don't think it hurts to simply >omit the connnection boxes at the ends, and just plug in the cable directly >(for one thing, I've done it that way myself);... NOOOOO! I'm not sure that the Appletalk connectors will even plug into the serial ports directly, but that white box is more than just a wiring splitter. It contains an impedance matching transformer, and termination networks for both the Mac and the network. The worst thing is that it would probably work. Sometimes. With short cabling.
