Does anyone know why ATM 1.2 doesn't seem to be supported in System 6.0.7, or
can anyone at least let me know if they've experienced similar problems and
how you've fixed them? I appreciate it greatly.

Also:
Thanks to everyone who was kind enough to reply to my Hard Drive Blues inquiry.
Mhe resulting information was that,
My problem was that I was hearing strange noises coming from the drive,
but the drive light as not going on and the noise was sporadic. Thanks to
the many experts and experiencers on this, I have learned that this is due
to a ROM routine which Apple installed to fix a lubrication-problem with their
Quantum drives... the ROM routine causes the head to move around in order to
spread the lubricant, and hence the sporadic, non-read/write action.
Thanks again.

Subject: HC 2.0 Upgrade Policy
The following is a summary of my exchange with Kevin Calhoun, lead engineer
for HyperCard 2.0, concerning the upgrade policy for HC 2.0.
He has been an excellent help and took the time to reply right away to my
questions. Some Apple employees still seem to care. Thanks!
1. What is the HyperCard upgrade policy for those who got it with their
computer or who were honest enough to buy it?
If you obtained a copy of HyperCard 1.x either when you bought a Mac CPU or
by buying the standalone HyperCard package, then you are eligible for an
upgrade from Claris, which will cost $49. The upgrade package will include
five disks (HyperCard, HyperCard Help, Stacks, More Stacks, and Your Tour
of HyperCard) and two manuals (a short overview of new features and the new
script language guide).
Claris is not yet taking orders for the upgrade package.
2. What are dealers allowed to distribute? The new Macs apparently only
come with Hypercard, Home, Appointments, Address.
HyperCard 2.0 in an Apple box, which Apple dealers have on their lists as a
real product at a suggested retail price of $49, has been canceled. When
HyperCard 2.0 is available in a Claris box, then dealers can sell it to
you.
It has been the policy in the past to encourage dealers to allow customers
to copy the HyperCard disks free of charge. However, this policy has been
discontinued.
In other words, at this time, dealers have nothing they're allowed to
distribute.
3. What are user groups allowed to distribute?
User groups that have licenses from Apple to distribute HyperCard can do so
at whatever price they set until the end of calendar year 1990,\ which is
when the license agreements expire. User groups that have such licenses
were sent the full five-disk set.
4. What is this user group license? Is it still possible to get one? If so
how and for how much?
I don't know whether it is still possible for a user group to obtain a
license to distribute HyperCard. You might try contacting Apple Software
Licensing, Mail Stop 38-I, Apple Computer, Inc., 20525 Mariani Ave.,
Cupertino, CA 95014.
5. What additional stacks/tools/support is Claris going to provide?
This has not yet been decided.
6. Will these policies change when Claris takes over?
These are the new policies instituted by Claris, which has already taken
over the distribution and marketing of HyperCard 2.0.
7. On a personal note, I think HyperCard is great product. The update
makes it even greater (congratulations to those who worked on it - it was
worth the wait). However, from the feedback I have been getting, I think
many will be disappointed if there is a fee for the upgrade. In my opinion
everyone, including Apple, gains from the free distribution of HyperCard
and the example stacks. I have yet to see one person who is not impressed
by the Train or the Puzzle stacks. I don't want to be sour or gready. I
just everyone to benefit from HyperCard.
You won't get any argument from me.
I hope this helps clarify matters for others as it has for me.
Am I naive to think that both Apple and HC users would gain more from a
free upgrade?

First of all, I should say that a BinHex file does not have to begin with
the line: "(This file must be converted with BinHex 4.0)". As far as I know
the first colon (":") in the file is regarded as the beginning of the
BinHex-encoded information.
Secondly, if you are on a bitnet node you can easily avoid getting files in
LPunch (=Listserv Punch) format by specifying that you want the file sent in
Netdata format (132, 136, 137 or so characters per line). A sample line to
be sent to listserv@rice looks like:
$MACA GET /HELP/ALL-FILES.TXT F=NETDATA
This overwrites the default format for files with lines of over 80 characters.
If for some reason you can get only LPunch formatted files then two conversion
programs written by the author of Listserv Eric Thomas <eric@frecp11.bitnet>
are readily available (one in Pascal, the other one in C). They can be obtained
>From the nearest listserver by sending either of the following commands:
GET LISTLPUN MEMO
INFO LPUNCH
Hope this is of use.

I've been mousing with mouse odometer and found something odd.
If I'm not mistaken there should be about 5280 feet in a mile.
Multiply 5280 by 12 inch per foot , I get -> 63360 inches.
My question is why do I have to travel 100000 inches in the mouse
odometer to get 1 mile ? When I zip a diagonal on my SE/30 it
reads approx 9 inches. So somebody needs to check their
conversion factors.
Funny I never thought I'd travel that much in 2 weeks with a

Subject: OzTeX 1.3
The new release of OzTeX (Version 1.3) is now available for anonymous ftp
>From midway.uchicago.edu (in the pub/OzTeX heierarchy). OzTeX is a free
version of D. Knuth's typsetting language TeX for the Macintosh. Version
1.3 has significant improvements over version 1.2; in particular it
incorporates TeX 3.0 changes and can be configured in "large" versions
that can handle huge macro packages. (In particular, I have tested it
successfully with LamsTeX).
OzTeX was written by Andrew Trevorrow, who certainly deserves praise and
thanks for his hard work on this project and for making the fruits of his
labour freely available!
OzTeX should work on any Macintosh Plus, SE, II or newer model. It will
not work on a 128K or 512K Mac. OzTeX was developed on a Mac Plus with 1
Meg of RAM and a 20 Meg hard disk. This is just about the minimum hardware
configuration, given the large amount of memory required to run OzTeX and
the large amount of disk space needed to store all the font information.
OzTeX uses standard pk fonts and tfm files (easily ported from mainframe
versions) and creates standard dvi files (which are easily ported to other
platforms).
The application includes a DVI previewer, a PostScript
driver, and of course TeX (including IniTeX so it is possible to dump
preloaded formats).
For more information get the README file from midway!
For rudimentary support and additional information, send mail to
oztex@midway.uchicago.edu.

Subject: printing IBM Post script files
Mitch,
Yes, it is definately possible to send IBM-PC generated PS files to a
LaserWriter via the Mac. How this is done is VERY dependant on what software
you've used to create the file on a PC. Some transfer situations would be
blindingly simple.... others would be tedious (but possible).
Give me an idea what software you're using... and a short run-down of the
equiptment (both IBM and Mac)... and I can, hopefully, give you step-by-step
instructions on the particular process you'd have to use.
Our lab, here, has done some rather intriguing translations to help us in
our work. Including ViewPoint screen captures and other Freehand files to Mac,
as well as text files for documentation. I, personally, have had to ponder
several IBM to Mac translations as well.
If you haven't already received information on how to perform the
translation you're interested in, give us a ring.

Subject: Print Server problems
Hello from Miami in Oxford, Ohio.
We have a lab of 25 SEs and a CX. We have two ImageWriter IIs
and a QMS-PS 2210 Laser Printer. We have a Star Controller.
All of our printers are on one leg of the Star Controller
along with the the Spooler. We are using Apple's Print
Server Software version 2.0. Because the ImageWriters
were acting weird, we "captured" them and allowed printing.
So, when a student prints to an ImageWriter, he/she is
actually printing to the spooler, which then prints to
the ImageWriter. Wow, is this slow. We do not have an
alternative, it seems. If printing is not regulated
by the Print Server, the printers will usually print half
a page and then give up.
(In order to regulate laser printing, we
allow spooling, but not printing. Every fifteen minutes,
a consultant will allow printing to the laser printer,
and charge for each page printed. Clunky, but it works.)
We've been running a beta-version of TrafficWatch to see what kind
of activity we've been getting on the network. It turns out that
the spoolers are dominating network activity. Even when nothing
is being printed! We have considered buying a bridge for the
ImageWriters, but this is a rather expensive solution.
I'm wondering if there is some other solution available?
Is this an optimal set-up for the lab?
I'm wondering if perhaps placing the Print Spooler on a
Ram Disk, using the RamDisk+ program is feasible/practical, and
whether it will solve my problem?
Any response is welcome.

Subject: ResEdit
To Graeme Forbes <PL0BALF@TCSVM>:
You are not exactly right, when you say that ResEdit 2.0b2 is available
for free from many Bulletin Boards. The truth is, that many BBSs allow
you to download ResEdit at no additional charge, provided that you agree
to the licensing agreement posted on the same board. In order to be able
to provide this service to their customers, the owners of the BBS must
obtain a license from Apple's software licensing department (which - as
far as I know - costs $100 per year). This license grants the holder the
right to redistibute ResEdit via modem or on disk (it's essentially the
same license, that 3rd party development systems have to obtain in order
to ship ResEdit with their product).
To sum this legal mubo-jumbo up: the moderators of the Info-Mac archives
would have to obtain such a license in order to be allowed to distribute
ResEdit through the archives.
Or in other words: ResEdit is neither freeware nor PD. Some license-holders
simply have chosen to distribute it as part of their products at no
additional cost - but even the end user is bound to the licensing agreement
with Apple.
Hope this clarifies the situation,

It is possible to change the userLevel in the Home stack shipped with Apple
computers.
1. Go to the Home stack
2. Choose "Message" from the "Go" menu (Cmd-M)
3. In the message box type: "set the userLevel to 5"
On the last card ("User Preferences") of the Home stack there are 2 buttons
you can delete ("UserLevel Cover 1" and "UserLevel Cover 2"). With these
buttons deleted you can set any userLevel as ususal.
To my knowledge none of this is "illegal".

Subject: Sound digitizer question
I have just bought a very used "Impulse Sound Digitizer". Unfortunately,
I am told that I also need to buy the accompanying software for it, not part
of the deal. I am unable to find out exactly what kind of software I need,
however. The closest I can come up with is an article in MacUser 4/88,
which reviews "SoundWave". It mentions the Impulse digitizer, and the
hardware/software combo appears to have been sold as a package at one time.
I can't find any other references to the company; maybe it's since gone out
of business or stopped distributing this particular product?
Will the digitizer run only with its own software, or can other software be
used? Can someone direct me to a copy of SoundWave? Maybe the manufacturer
of the digitizer will sell me a copy of what I need, if only I could figure
out how to get in touch.....
As always, many thanks in advance.

Subject: Still No Joy
Hello Mac Users
I recently posted a query concerning a problem I was having with downloading Postscript files to a LaserWriter from a Mac. Despite
numerous suggestions (my thanks to all those who replied) and several letters from other people experiencing the same difficulties,
the problem still remains.
A number of people suggested that FontDownloader was the wrong utility for this purpose despite the fact that it has an option for
downloading PS files as well as PS fonts. I have since tried using SendPS and DistillPS to downloading a modified, 'distilled'
version of the file but still without joy.
I've found that SendPS, DistillPS and FontDownloader all work IF I first print out a document on the LaserWriter from within a
Macintosh application. However, if I restart the printer and then try to use them I repeatedly get error messages about an
'invalidaccess'. I wonder how many people think 'their' method works because they've never tried using it immediately after turning
the printer on.
I've tried downloading PS files that have been created using various methods - option K, MyPageSetup, LaserFix and AddLPrep. I've
also read the article 'Imagen-postscript.txt' in the Info-mac archive and followed its suggestions for editing the PS file. This
just produces other error messages about 'stackoverflows'.
One suggestion was to go back to using version 5.2 of the LaserWriter driver. Which apparently works where the later ones don't. I
haven't yet been able to get hold of a copy to try this!
Am I overlooking something very obvious here or doing something very stupid? I admit that I know very little about Postscript but
then I shouldn't need to. That's not the Macintosh Way!
The background to all this is that I need to know how to do it because although my department, the Computing Service, charges people
for printing out to a LaserWriter, other departments in the University allow their students to print out from mini-computers such
as Vaxes free of charge. Naturally many students would like to use our Macs to produce documents and then FTP the postscript to
other machines.
For their sake..... HELP!

a copy to the archives, as the most recent version there is 11.08.
Thanks,
Kirke
