Subject: [*] Bicycle Gear Calculator v4.0

This is a new version of Bicycle Gear Calculator. This stack allows
comparison of various derailleur based gearing schemes. Amoung the new
features are the ability to have more than one calculation card in the same
stack, the ability to have any combination of 1-3 chain wheels and 1-7
"freewheels", and some corrections regarding the values produced for
700c's. Some attempt has also been made to make the stack more responsive.

The stack works best in conjunction with "Pictoids" and "Colorize HC XCMD"
- available here as pictoids.hqx and x/colorize.hqx. The former supplies a
few pictures [currently b/w only]. The latter provides pull-down menus and
colour. These features are optional, and the stack is shipped with them
disabled.

I should point out that copyright of this stack rests with the original
author, but that v3.3 was already in the public domain.

Subject: [*] Dr. Mac

    Dr. Mac is a single player game in which one is to remove all the viruses (smiling-face squres).  The blocks can be removed by arranging them sequences of 4 or more of the same color horizontally or vertically.
    Playing pills drop from the top and are comprised of two random colored blocks. Pills drop one at a time and may be moved left or right, or rotated.
    Any resemblance to other game is pure coincidence.

Subject: [*] finderevents12.hqx

This is also available on ftp.apple.com in /pub/pugh/hyperstuff.

This is the newest version of the Bride of FinderEvents stack
which contains the oh-so-handy FinderEvents XCMD.  This XCMD
allows you to control the Finder as much as it can be controlled
through Apple events.  New changes allow the use of minimal aliases
so that you can now open items on remote machines with only a
pathname, a task previously thought to be impossible.

This is a must have for System 7 and Hypercard 2.1 users.

Subject: [*] FirstClassUser-1.66

Attached is FirstClassUser 1.66, the latest version of
the client program for SoftArc of Canada's popular
telecommunications package.  First Class uses a graphical
user interface (GUI) and the number of systems using First
Class is growing quickly.  This version fixes a variety of
bugs in version 1.65

Included with this archive is a listing of some popular
First Class BBS's.  These are only a sampling of what is out
there.

FirstClassUser is free, though SoftArc gladly accepts
donations.  If you want a server package, however, you must
purchase it from SoftArc directly.

This package is intended primarily for those who have
already acquired FirstClassUser 1.65.  As a result, it does
not include a manual or the generic modem script necessary
for first time users.  Those needing these items are
available in the FirstClassUser 1.65 package, available from
mac.archive.umich.edu, rascal.ics.utexas.edu (I believe),
and other sites.

The manual and generic modem script, for those of you
who have difficulty obtaining these elsewhere, will be
uploaded within the next few days.

I am not the author of this program or affiliated with
SoftArc in anyway.  I am simply a satisfied user.  BTW, any
comments on this posting should not be directed to the
address from which this was sent.  Instead, please direct
inquiries to [e-mail]

Subject: [*] FirstClassUser-1.66-Extras

Attached is a Compact Pro archive with three small
items:  a generic modem settings file, a generic AppleTalk
settings file, and a brief "about" document describing these
two settings files.

If you have just acquired FirstClassUser for the first
time, and don't already have settings files, you need to
download this archive.  It's small--about 2 or 3 K.

Note that I have no affiliation with SoftArc
whatsoever, but am merely a very satisfied user of First
Class.

Mail for me should be sent to
[e-mail], not the above address.

I have attached a number of basic scripts which I am sure it is OK
to post.  They are in DiskDoubler's ".sea" format (binhexed).  Please
archive the submission as:

        "Frontier_Scripts.sea.hqx"

The scripts may be buggy -- in fact some of them definitely are -- and
I do not endorse them in any way.  Caveat downloader.

There may be other scripts on AppleLink that I didn't see.  If you were
talking about something else, I apologize.  If you are looking for
something in particular, let me know.

      > Preferably, someone who won't have to pay the unreasonable
      > download/connect charges :-)

Oh, I pay them all right, but consider it my good deed for the day.

Note that there is a LISTSERV list -- and an FTP site -- dedicated to
Frontier.  Lots of stuff is available there.  The list and the site
are managed by Andy J. Williams ([e-mail]; see
below for details), who can probably answer any questions you may have.


Cheers,
Dhanesh <[e-mail]>

........................................................................

Frontier Listserv Available!

Userland's Fontier is the first System level scripting for the
Macintosh.  With it, users can create scripts to control any number
of Apple Events aware applications (and in conjunction with QuicKeys,
non-Apple Events applications as well).

We have created a LISTSERV mailing exchange to allow people to share
Frontier knowledge with each other. Users are encouraged to post tips,
techniques, questions, scripts or script pieces, and anything else they
think relevant. Accompanying this list will be an anonymous ftp site
where people can place/get scripts, or related pd/shareware software.

If you would like to subscribe to this list send mail to
"[e-mail]" with

SUB FRONTIER <your name>

in the body of the message (NOT the subject!).

If you are new to Listserv or need additional help, send mail to
"[e-mail]" with

HELP

in the body of the message (again, NOT the subject.)

If you have any questions about the list or its uses, feel free to
contact
me (via eMail only please!) If you have any questions about Userland
Frontier, feel free to contact me (but calling Userland itself might
also
be a good idea).

Subject: [*] Sound Manager Package (Sound Mover 1.75 and SndControl 2.0)

Included in the Sound Manager Package is Sound Mover Version 1.75 and
the SndControl cdev Version 2.0 (shareware $25).

Version 1.75 of Sound Mover fixes two bugs reported by Steve Meuse where
several bytes at the beginning of the waveform were being chopped off
when converting between data and resource format, and it will now open
any file dropped onto its icon under System 7.0, not just its own.

The latest version of the SndControl cdev, originally programmed during
my 1989 Christmas holidays. It has so many new features (and several bug
fixes) that I felt it deserved being called 2.0 (a big jump from the
previous 1.1.3). You'll find it's compatible with System 7.0.x, yet
still runs fine under 6.0.4 & up.

SndControl allows you to associate a different sound OR a sound selected
at RANDOM from a suitcase of separate sounds to well over 30 distinct
actions or events, instead of just the beep. Most of the actions can be
assigned a sound by using the Control Panel, while one (having a
specific sound be played whenever a given application is launched)
requires using Sound Mover, the companion program to SndControl in the
Sound Manager Package.

some time ago I asked for recommendations/suggestions regarding
accelerators for a MacSE. Since the topic seems quite popular and I
received several requests to summarize, I decided to do so. The basic
idea conveyed by most replies is that it is probably worth while doing
so, but you are up against more and more incompatibility problems.

Here are the most interesting replies. Hope they are as useful to some
of you as they are to me...

Subject: Corrupted PostScript Files

I have had simular problems before. I looked like this:
If I left postscript file on my disc and create anoder one with the same name,
the resulting file whould consist (not every time) of newly generated
postscript and, after %%EOF, some leftovers from previouse postscript. When I
was printing that file it worked OK until printer encountered %%EOF, then it
flash the job, but since all I needed to print was before %%EOF it didn't really
matters. So, if your problem looks like mine then the solution is easy just
delete your old postscript before making new one.
Hope that helps,
Mike

Subject: KCS# Editor for Resedit [help]

Can someone help me to use KCS# EDITOR FOR RESEDIT to customize
the keyboard icon! Kcs# Editor for Resedit is a rssc resource to
customize your keyboard icons which i got from sumex ftp.
I want to change the icons of the keyboard I have other than US. What I
did was that:
-I copy the Ksc# Editor resource to Resedit Preferences file
-I open the System file and see three new sources: ksc#, ksc4 and ksc8
-I open these and see different keyboard resouce that i have in my
   system (i.e.US, ISO Canadien, Sanskrit Keyboard and Vietnamese). US
   has the US flag, ISO has Canadian flag, the other two have the icon
   of a normal keyboard. What I'am trying to do is to draw the
   Sanskrit and Vietnamese icons to the one I like. THE PROBLEM IS THAT
   IT DOESN'T EFFET when I close everything, save and restart.
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT STEP I DID WRONG or WHAT I NEED TO DO TO MAKE IT
WORK.
I'am using system 7.0.0, with IISi and 13" Apple color monitor.

Subject: Keyboarding and Personal LW Paper Cassette

People,

I have (what I hope) will be two quick questions:

1.  A friend and coworker of mine is looking for a typing/keyboarding
    program for her IIcx, and contacted MacWarehouse (I think).  At any
    rate, they told her that the two popular programs, both Mavis Beacon
    and Type!, wouldn't run on her IIcx because it was "too fast".  Great.
    She bought a IIcx because she wanted a fast computer, and now she has
    to slow it down?!  Does anyone know of a keyboarding/typing program
    that runs on the IIcx?

2.  In our college's "inventory reduction" sale, I bought a Personal
    LaserWriter Letter Paper Cassette for my Personal LW LS -- and I
    can't figure out how to install it.  I tried disconnecting the base,
    but it looks as if I need an optional base which wasn't shipped with
    my printer.  Any pointers?

Please respond by EMail, to cut down the bandwith of the list :}  And
thanks!

You have a number of options, all of them pd programs/modules.

If you have Stuffit Deluxe, get the extra modules stored in the
utilities directory of sumex.
If you have Apple File Exchange, get the 'Macbinary Translators" from
the util directory of sumex
If you want a quick and dirty, one-way transfer, get Unfolder, also from
sumex. It does the job quickly and effectively, though I don't think it
does batch stuff.

Options 1&2 support transfers from either Mac->Macbinary and

For sure you should get a CD ROM drive that supports (or will support with
a driver upgrade) the Kodak Photo CD format of CD ROMs. Believe me, you
will want this if you do anything with photo images. Kodak will charge you
$20 extra to digitize your roll of film onto a CD ROM. The image quality is
excellent. The Photo CD will store up to 100 photos. The newer Apple CD ROM
will read this format. The older one does not so ... there is probably
something about a CD ROM mechanism that makes the drive Photo CD compatible

Thanks again to everybody who responded to my plea for help with

Dick Rinewalt of Texas Christian wins the Brassy Apple award for
suggesting that we run Disk First Aid and then re-install System 7.
Why this never occurred to me I don't know.  But I do know this:
DFA detected an error, which was repaired and did not re-appear
on the second scan.  (I was always told to run DFA until you got
the "No errors detected" green light.)  Upon re-installing Sys 7,
the IIci ran like a pepster.

Sorry for misleading those of you by saying the box had an "internal

one of IIci's "celebrated idiosyncracies" (to use my phrase that

Macintosh Technical Note #268 (MacinTalk-the Final Chapter) reports that the
MacinTalk product is dead.  Although the commercial Talking Moose product
ships with an updated version, Apple strongly reccommends against using
MacinTalk for any purpose.  Here is the text directly from the Technical Note:

"The development of MacinTalk ended with the introduction of the Macintosh in
1984.  Nothing more will be done to this product.  It is a compatibility risk
to use MacinTalk.  It causes the Sound Manager to fail.  It will not work
with the new Sound Manager planned for System 7.0.  This system revision will
also introduce the new feature of virtual memory; it is not expected that
MacinTalk will work while the user has Virtual Memory running.  It may not
work at all with future versions of the Macintosh hardware.  Continued use of
MacinTalk is a major compatibility risk.  Do not operate heavy machinery
while under the influence of this product."

Subject: MacTools Deluxe 2.0

I just received my upgrade to MacTools Deluxe 2.0 on Tuesday and am very
impressed with it. It has a complete set of tools that seem to work well (I
haven't had a problem yet.) The Anti-virus program can be as annoying as
SAM, or can work just as transparently as Disinfectant. (New virus
signatures will be posted on the commercial online services and also on
sumex.)

One thing that bothers me is that the memory overhead for the anti-virus
program, the Mirror program and the scheduler (to tell Mirror and
anti-virus and Disk Fix when to automatically run) uses about 500K of RAM.
This means that 5 MB of RAM is not going to work well for me.

The Backup program is sloooowwww. It took me about 1.5 hours to back up 28
MB to floppies having it format the floppies as it goes.

Another annoying thing is that when starting up and icons are displayed for
extensions, the MacTools ones come up and clear the screen and then draw
the icon, repeating this for each of the 3 inits/cdevs it installs. Central
Point says that this clears memory and prevents conflicts.

I received the High Density disk version, so it came with 4 800K regular
installation disks, 1 1.44MB Emergency Disk with System 7, and 1 1.44MB
Disk optimizer Disk with system 7.
Another thing it includes is a hard disk formatting program called Disk
Maker by Golden Triangle Software that is supposed to format any hard disk.
(Not very useful to those of us that already have good hard drives and
drivers.)

If anyone has specific questions about MacTools, please email me, and I
will post summaries to these questions.

It is not a good idea to reduce the default waittimeout value below 300,

Bitch! Bitch! Bitch!  ;)

Seriously, I am a mere Q700 owner who is anything BUT miffed at apple for
releasing the Q950!  What do you expect them to do?  Not make ANY more powerful
machines?  You did NOT, I repeat NOT, pay Apple to have the most powerful
machine they make.  You paid Apple for a Q900.  And that is what you got.  Did
it suddenly get slower?  And do not confuse discontinuing a model with
'dropping' it.  Apple will still support the '900 for years to come.  I note
that Sys7 still CAN run on a Mac Plus (although painfully).

Why do people keep complaining evertime apple releases a faster machine?  I
would think that they should be cheering because:

a) It helps Apple's market share which means Apple will be around longer to
support me with my slow ancient Q700.

and

b) Eventually, when the Q700 dies or I have saved enough pennies, I will have
something more powerful to buy from Apple.  If they didn't improve their stuff,
then I don't think i would be too pleased with my options down the road!

Oh, by the way, a much cheaper alternative upgrade path already has appeared
(actaully over 2 months ago) from Newer Technologies.  For the tiny sum of
only $349 (list) you can get a clock booster to 33MHz for your puny, slow Q900
or Q700.  No soldering or alterations to lyou system board are recquired, it is
on a simm-type board that plugs into the empty, unused ROM-upgrade slot (don't
worry, Apple has NEVER, to date, released a ROM upgrade).  They also include a
new fan, I believe, to help cool the thing.  It looks like the way to go.  With
this, the only edges the q950 would have are the faster I/O bus (25MHz instead
of 16MHz) and the additional video modes(1024x768 and 16bit color support).
The I/O difference is not likely to mean much except in very rare instances
(such as ethernet access to a ram disk).  Most of the ports attatched to the
I/O bus are just plain too slow for this to make a difference.  As for the
video modes:  Hey!  Let's not get spoiled, okay?

One of the more annoying "features" of Finder 7 is that clean up doesn't
clean up in icon views when files or folders are snapped to grid on top
of one another.  There are however, two solutions: view by name, size,
or date or hold down the option key with clean up and clean up by name,
size, or date.

Frankly, I don't like either solution and hope Apple fixes clean up.
I've got all these nice custom icons, so I rather like icon views most
of the time (at least icons can be shown in the other views).  I don't
like clean up by because I often arrange apps, docs, and documents to my
own liking in a window and would rather just have clean up move things
out from underneath (or from on top of, whatever) one another!

>Maybe this IS the disappearing folder phenomenon?

Macs that can run either System 6 or 7: Mac+, SE, SE/30, Classic, LC, LC

By that logic a Mac+ (which can run System 4 too! :) is functionally
superior to a Quadra 950.  That's a pretty low BTU flame thrower you
have (someone musta slipped some water into the accelerant).  If your
Mac has the RAM and CPU cycles to support System 7, then running 6 is
similar to driving a Porche in rush hour traffic.  Perhaps you'd prefer
an 026 Keypunch machine and a card reader/punch (ah, there was a classic
system ;-)

I've a IIci in the office, but I have had neither the need nor desire to
boot System 6 since last August.  I don't miss 6, but when I go into the
Mac labs on campus which haven't upgraded (and it IS UP), I sure miss 7.

I can understand using 6 on a Mac+ because many people perceive a speed
penalty which offsets 7's advantages.  Apple originally offered the
PowerBook 100 with 2 MBytes of RAM.  Running 7 in 2 MBytes is amusing,
but the memory constraints get really annoying; although it's still no
picnic, System 6 allows room for more flexibility in 2 MBytes of RAM.
The LC II runs 6 because Apple has been tardy figuring out how to get
the //e card to work under 7 (you'd think they never even saw ][ in a
Mac).

Has anyone else noticed that, in Tiger Software's current adds in the July
MacWorld (and also in the catalog they sent me), the section featuring the
Radius Rocket accelerator board has a great big beutiful full color photo of
what is most obviously NOT a Radius Rocket!  Rather, it is some sort of IBM
PC-AT bus compatible card!!!!!!!!

I for one, am definitely hesitant to order from a company that screws up this
much.  I already got burned once years ago by the late Northeastern Software
(anybody remember them?).  Granted, Tiger is much bigger at marketing PeeCee
Klone stuff, and probably won't go under like ol'NE, but then again, NE was big
in PC stuff, too.

Of course, the mistake here was clearly the ad department and maybe
sales/inventory is run much better, but from the complaint Mai Ba Tong posted,
perhaps not.

Advice:  When using mail-order, ALWAYS use your credit card.  Check on the
status of it within no later than 3 weeks.  If you have not gotten some kind of
proof by then that it is being acted upon, cancel.  It is always safest this
way and the various credit card companies seem to much prefer if you register
complaints and cancelations within 30 days.

As to the missing CDs, although these are advertised as a 'free' bonus, the
reality is that you are indeed paying for them.  If your credit card has been
charged for the full price of the package, and yet you have not recieved full
shipment, then it seems to me that they are guilty of charging for items not in
stock.  I am no legal expert, of course, so that is simply MHO.

The only experience I've had with Tiger Software has been a
good one. I ordered two copies of the Word Finder Pro, Elements of Style, and
CheckFree Package and recieved both of them
within two days. One complaint does not a bad reputation make.

Subject: Type -39 Error

I'm having trouble getting one of my programs to run.  Every time I double
click it, I just get a Type -39 error.  This happened to me before, and
more and more applications started having this kind of problem.  What
exactly does this mean anyway?

Subject: WhiteKnight to WriteNow

I use White Knight to download to WriteNow 2.2. I'm connected to
university Hewlett-Packard mainframe. Does anyone have any advice about
downloading (file capture)? The format I read on the screen is not alway



always what I get when I go to WriteNow: columns are no longer columns,
lines are three spaces or more apart, etc.
Thanks for any advice or hints.
