As Pascal Chesnais wrote, Lighthouse Design has compiled an optical disk of freely copyable software. Because our first production run was quite small, we didn't post earlier--demand initially exceeded supply. A second (much larger) duplication run is now in the pipeline. A summary listing of the contents of the disk is given at the end of this post. The "ls -lR" (full catalog) is about 270 k, so I won't post it. The disk costs $125 (we cover postage), or $75 if you send an optical disk (MD customers, please add 5%). We can't yet take credit cards so payment must be by check, money order, or purchase order.

The list of software for this disk includes macps version 2.1. I have not been able to get 2.1 working for my NeXT, has anyone else? Article 5354 states that 2.2 works. What about it lighthouse boys? Rob maul@asic.nsc.com -- Rob Maul, maul@asic.nsc.com

What about it lighthouse boys? Yup. My fault. I'll be adding it to the master soon. Note that we've been using macps2.1 for quite a while. It has one little problem in that it brackets the file with a save/restore pair that confuses the NeXT, but in general it was quite useful. I'd be happy to e-mail 2.2 to anyone who needs it. Thanks for pointing this out. Roger Rosner Lighthouse Design, Ltd. NeXT Mail: rock@lighthouse.com or ...!uunet!lighthouse!rock
