The following will be several questions related to the apple//e specifically. they range in type from software related to hardware related. For ease of answering, I thought it might be fun to number them. Here goes... 1. I use an Apple//e with SSC in slot 2. I am using Apple Access II v. 1.2. I have things set such that baud = 1200. No parity. 1 Stop Bit (I can't select zero). I primarily communicate with a Spectrix computer (which is a UNIX system. In my .profile we have ^h defined as "rubbout". Unfortunately, although it erases the character from the screen it actually inserts a control character where the unwanted character used to be. Consequently, Speckie NEVER accepts a command in which I have made a typing mistake and attempted to correct it. Does anyone have any ideas for fixing the problem? 2. I am looking for any kind of PD or SW software related to the following: Diagnostics for the //e Diagnostics for Hard disks MODEM software that supports batch transfers ShrinkIt 3. I am looking for a reasonably priced 20 MB Hard Drive that is ProDOS compatible and may (although not necessarily) also support CP/M, Pascal and DOS 3.3. 4. ANY KIND OF VIRUS SCANNING SOFTWARE!!! 5. ANY software that allows 3-D rotation of objects on the screen. I would prefer PD ow SW, but I am interested in ANY. 6. Educational Software (preferably tutorial style), related to the following: Physics Electronics Math Astronomy Chemistry Text Editors/Word Processors (I have AppleWriter 1.X, Format II (ProDOS and DOS 3.3), AppleWorks 2.0, Bank Street Writer and BSW Plus, 7. Any info or documentation for a program called THE ASSEMBLER. I am specifically interested for information relating to its syntax. Well, I guess that is about it for now. Thanks very much in advance. P.S. I would prefer responses in e-mail rather than articles. My address follows. -- Bill Carss bill@braille.uwo.ca (Please Note the Lower case!!) "Apple//e Users of the World UNITE!!!
