For those who have not yet used dbackup it is a backup program which can use any compression utility (eg. zoo or lharc) to compress files instead of just copying it. It should be media independent (although I doubt tape drives work with it). Unfortunately some compression utilities do not support storing information such as whether a file is a hidden or system file so all may not work. (most notably arc.ttp does not). New options: -y backup only root directory of the source, skipping sub-dirs -e enable use of extended command lines when calling archivers -b "batch" mode operation The new batch mode option makes it a lot easier to use dbackup since dbackup can now be used with more archaic shells or directly from the desktop. When using the '-b' option you just say: dbackup -b and dbackup will then search a file called dbackup.inf which has all the definitions on what to do for that particular mode. There is no restriction (except on RAM) on the number of modes a user can define this way. All the options normally available through the command line is available this way. The '-e' option was added since zoo and others support the extended command line protocol for transfering more than 127 bytes on the command line. This in turn makes it go a lot faster when backing up a lot of files. (it *does* still take some time, though, to backup a 32Mb partition!!) If you have any difficulties in obtaining dbackup via ftp please let me know and I'll consider posting it to c.b.a.st A messy-dos version is planned to be released later this spring. I hope someone finds it useful. I do. pao -- -------------------------------Andrew Olausson-------------------------------- ------------------------------Systems Architect------------------------------- ----------------------------dxper@dtek.chalmers.se---------------------------- --------------------------------pao@proxxi.se--------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: 31 Jan 92 17:03:08 GMT From: noao!ncar!elroy.jpl.nasa.gov!usc!cs.utexas.edu!utgpu!utzoo!censor!isgtec!ken@ar izona.edu (Ken Newman) Subject: Dungeon Master, once again To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu In article <1992Jan23.185805.13272@mailer.cc.fsu.edu>, boyd@sigma.cs.fsu.edu (Mickey Boyd) writes: > In article <1992Jan22.194955.24668@milton.u.washington.edu>, tymbrimi@milton.u.washington.edu (Ben Gilbert) writes: > >My question is simple : HOW do I kill Chaos?

You *don't* have to put up 8 fluxcages, and you *don't* have to go into the little room in the corner and fill it with fluxcages! First, kill off most (or all) the demons, they are quite irritating; can't remember if they regenerate or not. Then, do one of the following, which are both straightforward, but the first is *much easier*! 1) Chaos is scared stiff of the war cry! Honest. Put the firestaff/gem in one champion's hand, and nothing in the other 3 (this probably won't work if you have 1 or 2 champions in your party). Stay out of Chaos's direct line of fire, and manouver so you're facing the side wall near where you came out in the open, and at the opposite end of the level from where the small enclosed room is. Make sure Chaos is between you and the side wall, it's not too hard. In the far corner, there are two one-square alcoves in the wall. Have your 3 chars start doing war cries as fast as you can click, one after the other. Chaos will run like hell away from you. If you do it so you are outside of him relative to the corner, in his panic he will run right into one of the alcoves. Run up 2 squares in front of him, do ONE fluxcage, which traps him in the alcove. Step forward into your fluxcage, and fuse him. Boom - game over. I've done this about 5 times in a row, it's real easy. 2) The other good way, although quite a bit harder, involves putting up FOUR fluxcages around yourself, by spinning in place, not moving off your square. Step back *one* square into one of your fluxcages, making sure you are now facing Chaos. He always moves in the direction he's facing, and will often teleport right in front of you in the middle of your cages. Fuse him real quick, and he's toast. - kn ps. Too bad the ST version doesn't have war cry sounds! The Amoeba version does.

The problem is a bug in the library used to compile tcsh; the ttyname() function crashes when called on a pseudo-terminal. A work-around is to create a symbolic link in u:\dev that points to the appropriate file name in u:\pipe (i.e. the name of the pseudo-tty).

Can > I change this by resetting the console device? pwd isn't built into any version of tcsh (the ST source code is essentially the same as the Unix). It's an easy enough program to write -- I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader :-). I don't know how to change the font; tcsh just writes to the standard output, in this case the BIOS console device. It would be possible to write a new BIOS console that used whatever font one wished, I suppose. -- Eric R.

I know nothing about Notator, but Calamus was developped around a new concept of typesetting. This gives real WYSIWYG, in contrast with postscript, which sometimes gives surprising results (not like you thought you had designed it) and has proven not to be compatible with itself. Especially with high resolution typesetters. I wonder why why why you need an interceptor to convert Calamus output for 300dpi laserprinters to a postscript file, since the creators of Calamus provide drivers for every printer you can think of. But yes, if you really want to go back to oldfashioned postscript, for Calamus SL, there is a module to convert a Calamus document to EPS. I suggest you ask DMC for it.

Wrong. People cazn get by just fine with Word 4.0 on the Spectre. I bet that 90% of all Word users, Mac Atari, PC, and Amiga do not use even close to 30% of it's current features, let alone 5.0. Also, It is quite easy to run all those programs under sys 7 with 4 megs. I know, I've done it. You have to change the maximum alotted memory size for each program, which slows them down a bit, but not much, but they still all work OK. Besides Sys 7 has virtual memory, So just get a bigger hard disk. No real caps there. SuperPaint is a memory hog anyway. It works fine when you force it to run under less memory. It is just greedy.

It is called STunn! and aims to provide a useful and interesting product both for those who can't afford and also want somthing different to the usually glossy ST magazines. It is currently available from the Monochrome BB (at City Uni in London) - which also has a lively ST debate section, mail dg194@uk.ac.city if you want an account there) and soon at lancs.pdsoft. Should anyone want a copy, but not have access to either of these then please mail me, and I will send you a .uue file of the latest issue - it is BIG though (approx 400k). Also, if anyone know the procedure for uploads to places like atari.archive, then I would love to hear from you. Hope someone enjoys it. The issue currently in the pipeline will be the best yet.
