[comp.sys.mac] Mac - Vax and more

olafur@rhi.hi.is (Olafur Thorsteinsson) (03/25/90)

I need advice on mac - vax connections.  Has anyone out there used or heard
of community, a mac-vax connection package.  I would be interested in hearing
about your experience with this package.

What is CL/1?  What is it good for and where can I get more information about
it?

Has anyone tried doing business with Hard Drives International?  They have
some very attractive prices for hard disks.  I would like to find out what
kind of a company they are.  Are they worth spending a few thousand dolllars
on?

Is there a way to change the font used in White Knight 11.04.  I haven't seen
anything suggesting that in the manual.  I need to Icelandicize the program
and found out that the font used contains the bold version of all the normal
character set instead of having the mac handle the bold part and thus leaving
some room for me to fiddle with installing special characters.

Which resource does one change (from and to what) to change the nationality
of fonts.  We have a few special national characters that have an apostrophe
to change their sound, When we press the apostrohe nothing appears on the
screen until another character is pressed.  If that character is the right
one, the appropriate character is displayed, otherwise, we get an apostrophe
followed be the character pressed.  What is it that controls this behaviour.

I drew a picture on paper and scanned it into my mac with my Tefax fax
machine.  The resulting image was rather course (as it was on an apple
scanner for that matter) owing to the nature of pencil drawings.  Is there a
program out there that will let me improve the picture quality of the scanned
image and color my picture, rotate it (all of it at once even if all of it
doesn't fit on screen at one time) and in general manipulate it?  I own
Canvas 2.0 which will let me read in the image and basically look at in black
and white.  I have tried Pixelpaint.  It will let me read the image but will
only let me rotate the portion that I see on screen (I think.  It wasn]t mine
and I don't really know how to operate it).  Studio/8 had the same problem as
Pixelpaint.  Is there a program out there that will let me read an image and
manipulate it at will and PRINT in color on an ImageWrite LQ?


Please e-mail since the sheer volume of this group is sometimes a little much
for me to keep up with.

Many thanks,
