I'm looking for a program that will display the various ASCII codes for the special characters so that I may insert them into my documents. Does anybody know of one available (preferably PD or Shareware)? Thanks. Stephen Yeoh psyeoh@ubvmsd.bitnet State University of New York at Buffalo psyeoh@ubvmsd.cc.buffalo.edu

They only have ANSI and ASCII tables. I wish support had been added for other fonts, like greek and symbol and dingbats, etc. I like the interface, though. For public domain, I have an ASCII/ANSI table viewer which I think I got from Compuserve. My ftp seems to be somewhat broken. Can someone post the name and number for the windows archive?

There is indeed a PD program that does that. It was written for Windows 2.1, but I used the mark program on it and it works just fine under Windows 3. Here's the problem. I can't post it here (and I'm sure that's a relief to some) as I've not been able to successfully arc/encode/etc any program to date (I don't have a DOS version of uuencode/uudecode and I'm sure that's a bit of a problem). The program originally came from CompuServe so I know it's there someplace (unless it's been deleted or something). -- "What's in a name?

I am in deep trouble. After lots of trouble I got windows running beautifuly on my ps-55sx. But then, I got hooked to the campus net. The tecnicians came and pluged every thing up. Then I tried to reconfigure my sistem so I could use windows or use the net, and I couldn't. Then I tried to make different configure files one for the net and the latter for windows. But i can't get the same nice configuration out of the windows software. If I tried to make a ramdisk for the temp files too large i get a "load too high for configuration" or something like that during booting. If I make the ramdisk smaller and reduce the caches size it might work, BUT the screen apeares all YELLOW. Very wierd. Whats going on?. Notepad was corrupted so there is a chance that other windows files could also be in bad shape. I will run a check up on the memory expantion hardware (I got 4 megas of memory). But I don't know. The worst is that the net doesn't even work right neither. Maybe Himem isn't working right. Any help is thankfuly welcome. Please reply directly to me.

Again, HdC rises to the occasion. One of their "microapps" in their new utilities package (the name escapes me, but I think its "First Apps") is a pull-up high-ascii table for cut-and-paste. By the way, they have updated theier "Windows Express" for Windows 3. This used to be a really nifty tool for Windows 2.11 but now seems superflous with the advent of Program Manager. Can any of the HDC people comment on why one would want to use Windows Express rather than Program Manager? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iskandar Taib | The only thing worse than Peach ala Internet: NTAIB@AQUA.UCS.INDIANA.EDU | Frog is Frog ala Peach Bitnet: NTAIB@IUBACS !
