[comp.sys.mac.apps] LaserFix 1.0 troubles

bjr@clarity.Princeton.EDU (Brian J. Reiser) (08/21/90)

We are having trouble using the LaserFix 1.0 INIT to get a file of
postscript output.  We have successfully used it with CricketGraph and
MacDraw in the past, but for some reason whenever we try it now we get
an error about the disk being locked.  We have this INIT on two Mac FXs
and get the same error on each one.

Since this has worked earlier, we are suspicious that it is
interacting badly with something else on the machine.  Does anybody
know whether LaserFix 1.0 is messed up by either TOPS or NCSA Telnet?
Are there any other ways to get a file of postscript output that we
should try?

Thanks,

The current version is 2.0. If it's not at sumex-aim.stanford.edu, someone
please let me know, and I'll send a copy there.

(I have no Internet access, and mail to listserv@ricevm1.rice.edu never
comes back, so I have no way of checking what's there...)
