From my point of view, the major thing the printed docs have that
the online ones do not have is page numbers.  Also an index to go
with the page numbers, although Digital Librarian is an excellent
substitute.

There is no substitute for being able to add ones own notes to a
book.

But finding leaks would only make sense if they had someting *reeeaaaal* good

Well apparently I was right. BackSpace CAN'T work at the login panel mode.  
So...now I am making an official request that the next person who works on  
changing BackSpace try to make it work for the login panel also if  
possible. (Is it possible?)

I got several responses telling me how to make my login screen turn black.  
Thanks for the thought, but the 3.0 "bouncing login panel" beats  
"blackness". Especially now that we know how to add custom tiff files on  
top of the login panel ala' Crazy Greg's House 'o Programmers'  
"SteveJagger".

My point was partly in response to the originator of this thread. Everyone  
responded to him that BackSpace was the solution to his problem. I was  
only trying to point out its limitation to the original poster to avoid  
any confusion. Many people (myself included) think of screensavers in only  
in terms of the login panel, because our machines are publically  
available. In these environments the rule is "When you walk away from the  
machine, LOGOFF STUPID." And then so much for BackSpace. I suggest that in  
the future, when recommending BackSpace as we frequently do on the USENET,  
mention this limitation. It may be important depending on the environment.

This is baloney.  Persistence of Vision ray-tracer takes 9 h 10 m to
render dfwood.pov, which is an example script, on a 486/33.  I rendered
the same script with the same parameters (anti-aliasing being the most
important) and the 040/25 NeXT color did it in 2 h 30 m 10 s.
 
Intel is a joke.  I can see why IBM picked it, given their mainframes.

if you've ever purchased any Adobe fonts, you received an app called 
FontInstaller.app on the floppies. just double click on that app
and select the font package and destination and it takes care of the rest.

It makes it even more worthwhile buy at least one Typeset or typeface from Adobe.

I've uploaded this PostScript font collection to sonata.cc.purdue.edu,
directory /pub/next/submissions/Font

There are a large number of fonts available at ftp sites, but they rarely
have been set up properly for NeXT machines nor are they often fully
PostScript type 1 compatible.  The usual situation is a bunch of randomly
named files with incorrect font names in the afm file and only partially
or erroneously encoded character sets.  I don't like this.  So I downloaded
a huge pile of fonts and sifted thru them searching for correct fonts.
Unfortunately, not many freely available fonts are "perfect", but here is
a reasonably large collection of them (about 1M compressed, 1.8M opened).

To use one font under NeXTstep 2.2, chdir to ~/Library/Fonts (make it if you
don't yet have it) and do the command:
	zcat Font-whatever.tar.Z | tar xf -
for each font you wish to install, then execute the commands:
	buildafmdir
	cacheAFMData .
If you have root access on your machine, you can install these fonts to
the /LocalLibrary/Fonts in a similar way to give access to all your users.

The fonts included in these packages are:
	ArnoldBoecklin-ExtraBold
	Baskerville-Normal
	Baskerville-Bold
	Baskerville-Italic
	Blippo-Heavy
	Bodoni-Normal
	Bodoni-Bold
	Bodoni-Italic
	Brush-Script-Italic
	Cooper-Heavy
	Garamond-Normal
	Garamond-Medium-Italic
	Goudy-Old-Style-Normal
	Goudy-Old-Style-Bold
	Goudy-Old-Style-Italic
	ParkAvenue-Normal
	Slogan-Normal

Still, Intel drives volumes high enough that while their chips may not be
the fastest per transistor, they are often the fastest per dollar. Economy
of Scale is very important here. (Hence the reason NeXT didn't go with the 
88k.) Next is not in the super fast workstation market -- they are in the 
desktop market. They need a processor base that has a reasonable tradeoff 
between speed and price. Motorola cannot not even keep up with Intel in terms 
of chip speeds and Intel lags the Riscs by about a year.

Next could adopt a "low volume" high performance Risc architecture, but they
would have to abandon the low end of the market. The Pentium will sell well and
run far faster than the current 68040 based machines. It will be out probably
a year before the 68060 and Next has already done a significant amount of
porting work to the family. The 80486 is already out and running at higher 
speeds than the 68040. The silicon is probably cheaper.

The 80x86 dominates the applications markets. It will have a huge market for 
the next decade at least. There is too much development invested in it for it
to go away overnight. If Next stays with Moto's 68K they will perform like a dog 
for the next year and a half. If they go to a Risc like the R4000 or the 88K 
they are commiting to paying premium prices for their processors and doing a port to
an architecture that does not have an installed base to insure its survival. 
Their choices seem quite limited and the Intel line seems the best. It is ready 
soon, the work for a "complete" port has been going on for some time, it is
going to be cheap and there will be a "next chip" in the family.

Anyway,
-Chris

Is it all that important?  Especially considering the ease with which
applications are being ported to NeXTstep 486?  And considering their
insanely-great production line that can be reprogrammed in no time?
There's no problem with coming out with a different processor every
year.  Your distributed executables might start to get a little large,
but there would be some utility to keep only the part for your machine
so it wouldn't clog up your hard disk.

DEC has not yet been successful in licensing the current Alpha chip
design.  The chip has other problems, one being sheer physical
mass.  It's a very tough chip to make, and I don't think the design
could be cost effective for a while.

Personally, I'd like to see NeXT (well, anyone actually) make a
hardware box with several slots for several different processor
types.  You like PA-RISC? Plug it in.  Want those same programs to
run faster? Plug in a few more, and power back on.  You decide that
you like SPARC better? Plug it in.  You need that 486 program to
run fast instead of under emulation?  Go buy one and plug it in.

I'd like to see display architectures the same way.  2-bit gray?
One low density SIMM.  8-bit gray or 12 bit color?  One regular
SIMM.  24 bit color?  Another SIMM.  Two to four headed? Add a card
with three more empty banks and start populating them...

If you open up the file using Edit (instead of Preview) you'll see:

   %%DocumentFonts: CoventryScript
   %%+ FranklinGothic-Roman
   %%+ Helvetica-Bold

which is a bit more precise than saying which fonts it isn't...  :-)

(of course, I don't have those fonts either, but with the above I could at  
least go out and order the right fonts  :-)

Ptroff is a shell script which calls pscat. Pscat is the weird program.
It reads the defaults database, but apparently does so for the globals
only. It seems not to know "private" defaults, at least I didn't find them.

> 2. What default can I set to format the manpages in A4 and then print it

Call ptroff with the additional option "-l 11in". This is given through
to pscat and overrides the defaults. I use
	ptroff -man -t -l 11in  xxx.1 | lpr
for man pages. This works fine even if you did a "dwrite -g NXPaperType A4".

Yes, they do, and for good reason. When they had to commit to a disk  
format, it was not yet known whether or not NS486 would read NeXT  
formatted diskettes. (It will.)

Subject: Postscript dumps to Apple printers
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 1992 20:23:04 -0500

I have to take and print a file on my NeXT on an Apple LaserWriter.  The problem
is I do not have a connection to the Apple printer from my NeXT.  I created a
PostScript dump of the file and I've succeeded in bringing on to a Mac connected
to the printer.  My question is do I need to do anything else to it or the Apple
Printer before I send it to the LaserWriter for printing?
