I am submitting the following file of that contains a first pass at 7.0
compatibility for PD CDEV's/INIT's and other items. The testing was done in
32-bit addressing mode on a IIfx with 7.0b4 and was looking for GROSS
functionality problems. So some subtle problems on an item that is marked
compatible may still be present.

Subject: [*] GambitScheme1.51.sit.hqx
Gambit is a Scheme programming system under development at Brandeis
University. Gambit runs on many M68000 based computers (such as SUN3,
HP300 and NeXT). This version, for Mac+/SE/II computers, includes an
interpreter (GSI), compiler (GSC) and a linker (which can be used to
build standalone Macintosh applications). GSC generates very
efficient code that in some cases is faster than the one produced by
optimizing C compilers. Those of you that are used to MacScheme's
user-interface will feel at home with GSI.
The Gambit system supports the IEEE Scheme standard. Only exact
arithmetic is implemented (bignums and ratnums but no flonums). The
interpreter offers a minimal debugging environment.
You must debinhex and then unstuff (with version Stuffit 1.6) the binhex
document at the tail of this message. A short documentation file and
a couple of sample programs are included.
For those with ftp access, you can get Gambit (for Mac and other systems)
by anonymous ftp to acorn.cs.brandeis.edu (129.64.3.8) in directory 'dist'.

Subject: A Personal Postscript Laser Printer for MAC IIsi
Hi. I'd like to get a good-quality Postscript Laser Printer
for a Macintosh IIsi. Here's the details:
1) I don't need any networking capabilities. In other words,
I want a Personal Postscript Laser Printer.
2) I don't need the printer to be "multicomputer compatible".
In other words, as long as it works with a Macintosh IIsi,
I don't care if it works with an IBM or any other kind of
computer.
3) Speed is not a major concern. I'd even live with 2 pages a
minute, though 4 pages a minute (or more) would be nicer.
4) I don't want a colour printer.
5) I only need one letter sized paper tray and no others. Well,
I guess I could survive with a legal or envelope tray too (-:
6) It would be great if the educational discount price was
under $2000.
Thanks a lot for your help. Sincerely, Marsh

Subject: Arabic, ATM and StyleWriter
I am trying to set up a Mac Classic system with the Arabic system
software and a low-cost high-quality printer. I have looked at the
StyleWriter, and am rather dissappointed with its lack of speed when
printing TrueType fonts. Does anyone know if the StyleWriter is
faster with ATM at the wheel?
I understand also that there is software to convert fonts
>From Adobe type 3 to type 1, and to TrueType fonts. Is there a public
domain package that will do this?
The other printer I am thinking of getting is the DeskWriter: has
anyone made a controlled comparison of the two? The samples of output
I've seen suggest that the StyleWriter has higher quality output.
Is this what other people have seen too, or could this be some artifact
of the paper or ink used?
Finally, does anyone familiar with the Arabic system software know if
a special word-processor is required? Or will is there a public-domain
script-manager compatible editor that will work? The editing
will be done in Microsoft Word, which I know does not support Arabic
editing: I was planning to just copy arabic excerpts from an editor
into Word.
I know this is a lot for one query, but I would appreciate any help.

Subject: A suggestion about the distribution of ResEdit 2.1
Dear Sirs;
I am a regular user of your info-mac archive (about 1 year now) and
I have the following suggestion about the distribution of ResEdit 2.1.
Please think about it first before posting this message or whatever.
First, RedEdit is a great program, many people need it. As I understood,
in order to have it on sumex for people to download, you have to pay Apple Co.
$100(?) to get a site license. It's difficult to ask the university to
pay for this; so I thought maybe it's a good idea to ask regular users to
denote some money to your site *voluntarily*. Each denotation should be at most
$1.
This is just my idea, I don't know if it's workable or not.
Thanks.

I've had no difficulties moving DOS binaries between a U*ix box, my
Mac, and DOS machines via ftp, Kermit, and the Apple File Exchange.
Several times I have download the McAfee virus software from Simtel
to a U*ix box where I UUDecode it, then binary ftp the ZIP files to
the Mac, UnZip them (using UnZip 1.01 for the Mac), run them through
the _default_ translation in the AFE to a DOS disk, and boom,
they're all set to go on a PC. I've also moved the DOS executables
via binary ftp back to the U*ix box, where they are available for
binary Kermit download by DOS users logging into the U*ix box via
asynch lines. (If this process sounds a little crazy, it's because
I've lost my PC Ethernet connection to the U*ix box temporarily, and
have been using my Mac Ethernet connection in the meantime).
Sometimes getting the AFE exchange to work in default mode is not as
simple as one might like - I've found that I often have to deselect
any extra translators so that the AFE reverts back to default mode.
Binary DOS executables and compressed files usually don't confuse
the AFE (since they don't look like something that can be
translated), but the AFE usually assumes that a text file should be
translated. In these cases you need to turn off any filters so that
the file goes through unchanged. This will happen both with
straightforward DOS text files _and_ UUEncoded files, since they are
text as well. You'll probably have the least difficulty with the
translation if you move ZIP files between the machines, since they
are least likely to confuse the AFE (for both executables and text).
UUTool 1.2 and UnZip 1.01 for the Mac are available in the archives:
-r 134545 Nov 9 1989 ./util/unzip-101.hqx
-r 27738 Jan 1 14:26 ./util/uutool-12.hqx

There is a newer version that fixes that bug. I had it, but lost

Depending on the particular model of Tektronix terminal you want many (perhaps
even most) of them do. In particular, I know that Versaterm does 401x
emulation and Versaterm Pro does higher models. I'm certain there are others,
but Versaterm is the program I use, I could check its features more
conveniently.
If you're looking for TCP/IP connections rather than a serial line,
NCSA Telnet does 401x emulation and a subset of the features from higher
models.

To Kee Nethery with the exceptionally large stack (16000 cards). When you issued the command to unmark all cards, I don't know if HyperCard automatically assumes a lockmessages and lockrecent mode. That is, as it goes through card by
card if you don't have the lockmessages and lockrecent set to true condition,
perhaps it's also executing some sort of opencard handler. Just a thought.

Subject: Mildly Misleading & Insulting Revisited
OK, no problem, here is the same message again...
Is the complainant serious? If so, I must express my astonishment that
anyone would let a 14K freeware hack become a stimulus for a 1000-byte,
thinly-veneered tirade, such as he has seen fit to disseminate.
I can appreciate that the "advertisement" in question could be
open to misinterpretation (anything can be misinterpreted). However,
the plaintiff himself admits that said "advertisement" only IMPLIES
that Cubist will work on any small-screen Mac, in much the same way
as his quoting of "advertisement" IMPLIES that I have something to gain
>From this program. At no point have I made any guarantee that this
program will work on ANY machine (a message which is stated quite
clearly on the title screen). I would also point out that
eliminating all programs from these archives which do not run flawlessly
on the machines for which they are intended would come as a serious
blow to the Macintosh community. Not even Microsoft (or perhaps,
especially not even Microsoft) can live up to those kinds of standards.
Further, the complainant states that Cubist has been "designed *not* to
work with small Macs that have been enhanced with a large display";
this statement is at best inacurate and at worst slanderous. It is
easily shown from the source code that Cubist has in fact been designed
to not run on ANY large screen, the implication that a special case
has been foreseen and accounted for vis-a-vis the large-screen-on-a-
small-Mac is rejected out of hand.
As a final note I would point out that in the future Jon's interests
might be better served if he were to adopt a somewhat less "uptight"
posture. As it happens, I neglected to consider the possibility
of his configuration occuring. Had he dropped me a friendly
note telling me of his difficulties, I would have been more than
happy to make the necessary changes to the program and provide him
with a new version; indeed, I would have been grateful to receive the
"user input". Under these circumstances, however, I must confess to
being somewhat reluctant to modify Cubist merely to accomodate an user
of his particular ilk.
Sincerely,
Alan Keahey

Netters,
The only info I have on the new Apple printers I got from the Tuesday edition,

The Stylewriter does sound like the deskwriter, but it sounds so much
slower. The article quotes 2 minutes for some docs. The DeskWriter
isn't that slow.
I agree that prices will probably fall for the HP and the Stylewriter. Up

as has recently emerged, 2.1 has bugs, and is being fixed. How do those

What the heck. Make it 19 and $5 respectively!
[If it was only a matter of getting $100 from somewhere, that's one thing.
But from what I remember when I tried to find out about getting Resedit
here, one extra requirement was that we would need to get a list of the
people who downloaded it. Since we use anonymous ftp, there is no easy
way that I know of to get such a list. The commercial services apparently
keep records of this kind.
That was a while ago, and things could have changed (or I could be wrong),

Subject: System 6 and System 7 on the same drive
Also, System 7 seems to have the need to be in the root (top
level, first to mount) partition of a hard partitioned drive.
This was not my experience. I was able to set up System 7 on the
second partition on a Rodime hard drive that had been formatted with
the Cobra installer. To boot 7.0, I would simply "un-bless" the System
folder on my first (6.0.7) partition. The machine would start up,
try to boot from the first partition, reset itself, and then boot from
the second partition... no problem at all.
Many drive-formatting packages (including the older Rodime installer)
aren't able to set up the second and subsequent partitions as bootable
volumes. I'm not certain why this is. If your drive has been formatted
using one such utility, then your bootable partition _must_ be the first
regardless of whether you're using System 6.0.x or System 7.0x
AND, System 7's Virtual Memory will only work on drives
formatted with Apple's HDSC Setup, which, stupidly enough, does
not allow more than one Mac partition...
Once again, this was not my experience. I had no difficulty running VM
on a Rodime disk under System 7.0b2.
