- There is a good German documentation for SAM. But one of the authors
- told me someweeks ago that they work on an English version of it.
- I can't say, if the English documentation has been published already.
- If you want to have detailed info about that fact write a mail to
- hs@cnve.rrze.uni-erlangen.dbp.de .

- Oh yes. I can't speak for accessories I didn't describe in my posting
- but I'm quite sure, that all pull-down commands are in English (and I
- guess that the rest is in English, too - mail me, if you want to know it
- for sure and I will take a look at it at home).
-
- >This CAD program, what sort of screen resolution is it?
- Well, 320x192 (It may be that it is 320x190 or similar, haven't worked with
- it for a long time - xl abstinence)

- I'm not sure. This is because I only have the full description of SAM and its
- utilities (plus some accessories). I have a copy of the CAD program at home
- but no description of it because at the time I got it there was no description
- for it. But now there is one. It may be that this is only a one-screen-picture
- CAD program but if you're able to program in ml you can do it for yourself.
- I have all the details how to program SAM accessories.
- Wanna have them...gimme a hint.
-
- >How much does it cost, and is it available to us U.S. users?
- Okay, there is a company here in Germany selling this stuff.
- SAM (Main program and all utilities) 49 DM ca. $31 +shipping
- SAM accesories (without Designer) 24 DM ca. $15 +shipping
- SAM Designer 19 DM ca. $12 +shipping
- SAM Patcher 12 DM ca. $08 +shipping
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- 104 DM ca. $66 +shipping
-
- If you buy all in one it will be only 79 DM ca. $50 +shipping
-
- If this company has plans to give the distributing rights to an US company
- is not sure but you can ask them for yourself ...
