We are adding an extension to C++ to handle this.  There will be a built-in
object type called indirect.  Any object that is descendant from indirect
will be allocated as a handle and will use the Object Pascal method call
dispatcher.  Object not descended from indirect will be allocated as pointer
and use the standard C++ dispatcher.

Subject: 32K limit, Tech notes, etc.

I'm merely an amateur at developing programs on the Mac, and have run into
what are evidently fairly well-known problems.  Unfortunately, they're not
that well-known to ME, and they've stalled me pretty effectively.  I'm writing
an application using LIGHTSPEED PASCAL, and I've run up against the famous
32K limit.  Every time I run my program, it crashes; and I can't test it
from within LSP, thanks to the limit.  Obviously, the 32K is mostly made up of
various datastructures, etc.  The question is, how can I allocate space for my
arrays and records without running afoul of this cursed limit?  Details will
be greatly appreciated.

Also, while I'm writing, where is the Graveyard of Old Tech Notes?  I've looked
on SUMEX, and I found only one set of them.  Where are the rest hiding?  Some
of them could be quite useful to me.  Thanks a lot.

Subject: Changes to the MacBinary standard

The following text describes some proposed enhancements to the
MacBinary file-transmission standard; authors of terminal emulators
and file-transfer utilities should be aware of the changes so that
their implementations of MacBinary will remain up-to-date.

A new version (2.0) of FreeTerm has been implemented to support the
new flavor of MacBinary.  As soon as I get a chance, I'll download it
from my local BBS and post it to Info-Mac for distribution.

Subject: HYPERCARD-BIRDINFO.HQX

The following is a HyperCard stack for bird watchers in North
America who also happen to own a Macintosh and HyperCard
(probably quite a small set of individuals).  It is essentially
a database of species that one has some likelihood of seeing
in North America, to which one can attach notes and check off
those one has seen.

Non-birders who want a "real" database of about 800 cards to
play with may also be interested in this stack.

Here is Servant version 0.951 - Andy Hertzfelds alternative to multifinder

that it has limited resource editing facilities.

Those of you designing minifinder Hypercard stacks on the Mac II might find
this useful. It's a XFCN external function for controlling the 68020's cache -
setting it on and off, and finding out its status. It's all wrapped up in a

Subject: Questions: System 4.1, Mac II memory, Super Laser Spool

I have a few questions for all you Mac wizards:

    1) Up to now, I've held off on installing System 4.1, etc., because there
    was considerable discussion of problems with it, and I had no pressing
    need for it.  Now I have a product which requires it.  Could someone
    please summarize the current status of the 4.1 problems?

    2) I know very little about the hardware architecture of Macs.  I recently
    read an article which said something about the Mac II not being able to
    support "more than one megabyte per card".  The implication seemed to be
    that this was not a limitiation under A/UX, but is for the Mac's OS.
    Can someone elaborate?  Does this mean that all the wonderful expansion
    boards (e.g. National's for up to 16MB) will be useless except for A/UX?

    3) I recently downloaded Super Laser Spool version 1.01 df (I have an
    XP-40).  It worked pretty well at first, but as I was printing something
    from Excel, first everything froze [i.e., I could move the cursor around,
    but the Mac didn't respond to clicking on anything], then woke up for a
    second or two, and then my Mac crashed.  I've had this happen several
    times now.  Has anyone else seen this?  Is there a workaround [aside from
    "don't use SLS"] or a new version?

Thanks for the help.

from SuperMac. Note that you should definately visit your dealer and obtain
the latest version (at least 1.1, rumored that 1.2 is available). The later
versions work great and are worth the trip to upgrade!  DAVEG ]

Subject: IW II Page Break

Has anyone besides myself noticed a problem printing on the Imagewriter II?
It seems that no matter what I try, or what application I am using, it is
simply impossible to print without page breaks. Typically, most of my print
jobs are text files created using Apple's Edit, and are source for MS Fortran.
I really have no need for the page breaks, they just waste paper and time.
I am currently using IW driver 2.5. Should I hunt around for an older release?
The DIP switches in the printer are set for 'perforation skip inactive'. Any
suggestions?

Subject: BREAK DA

I am looking for a DA that will send a break signal out one of the serial

mainframes here expects a break to get its attention.  Kermit and Red Ryder
are the only packages I've found so far that support the break signal.

I have virtually no Mac programming experience, so there is little chance that
I could construct the DA.  I would like to be able to use Grafterm, but I need

Currently we use Macput/get on our current 8650 using ULTRIX (UNIX). As the

So what I am asking the fellow mac lovers out there is:
Is there a copy of Macput/get for VMS and can some one mail me a copy or

I am sorry I know very little VMS or programing so surgestion about modifing

Subject: PCB Layout/Design Software for Mac SE/II ?


    The Intel-oriented microprocessor lab here at UCC has just
recently gotten its grubby mitts on a Mac SE with 20 MB HD. It's
being used mainly for wordprocessing at the moment, and Tom The
Technician wants some info on PCB Layout/Design.  He is currently
looking at a number of IBM PC packages, grotty and all as they
are (notably smARTWORK and hiWIRE from WinTek).  He (stout fellow)
is quite interested in the idea of dumping the PC-based approach
in favour of a Mac SE (or a Mac II; we're getting one shortly!)
setup.  Of course, I'm all for that!  BUT ...
    All our (feeble) efforts to find any PCB Layout/Design software
has come to nought.  So, if anyone knows of any Mac-based PCB stuff,
would they please respond to me via email, or, if you no-speaka-bitnet,
then (if the moderator doesn't mind), via the pages of this
outstandingly august journal (I hope flattery works).  Please include
details of prices, advertisements, features, and ease of use, etc.
If the response is good enough (> 3), I'll post a summary back to the net.
If the response comes to nought, it'll have to be on a grotty PC after
all, and I'll never hear the end of it ("Huh! The Mac's just a toy!
A glorified wordprocessor!...").  So [italics/bold] please, even if its
just a fifth-hand rumour you've heard, let me know.

    If it's of any use to you, our equipment includes:
    1 MB Mac SE
    2 MB Mac II (eventually, and the sooner the better!)
    LaserWriter+
    ImageWriter II, etc.
    We also have [Calcomp] plotters if that's not a heresy.


    Thanks in advance,

drive it looked very tempting.. anybody out there has experiance with this
animal? They claim to be very fast (dont they all) very quiet (being fanless?!)
and give a one year warranty and a 10 day tryout.

Naturaly I have no affilation with that company but for the interested parties
they are :
Cutting Edge, 1156 Fowler Drive, North Glenn, CO 80233 . 1-800-443-5199

All info (direct or to this forum) will be most welcome..

'now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same
place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run atleast twice as fast
as that.'  /TtLG
