Let's hope this only goes out once! I want to have notes on my HP (like everyone else), can I have them print on the screen like the size of the path or clock? (HP-48) Is this possible? Do tell. Thanks Matthew -- But I still like my ST... GEnie M.DUCEY SOCEUR (A) Bitnet mjducey@suvm "But Sgt. Airborne, look how high we are!" mjducey@rodan.acs.syr.edu Anyone have/use TALK type 4.2?

Read the description of ->GROB on page 342 of your owner's manual. You will need to write a program that uses ->GROB for each line of text and then puts the graphics objects together to fill the screen. -- edp

Try using \->GROB on a string. You can specify which of the three font sizes you want to use. Of course, using the small font will give you problems: - Proportional spacing - not always desirable, especially if formatting in columns or vertical lists - Harder to read characters - especially greek or typographical ones ------- _/__/ ----------------------------------------------------- _| ___| E l e c t r i c a l | Johan Thornton, Esq. | | |_/ E n g i n E E r i n g |------------------------- |/| __| U n i v e r s i t y | jthornto@fs1.ee.ubc.ca |-| |/__ o f B r i t i s h |------------------------- | |_____| C o l u m b i a | This space for rent ---- |__|/_| ------------------------------------------------------
