I use the commercial software XBOOT. There you can select and sort your
programs in the AUTO folder and your accessories. You can save many
settings and can switch a default set. You can choose three types of
INF-files (e.g. DESKTOP.INF, NEWDESK.INF, ASSIGN.SYS, RAMDISK.INF) and
select the Blitter on or off.
I think the actual Version is 2.57.

Maybe there is a PD doing the same, but i don't remember the name...

WordPerfect and WordWriter ST both come with thesaurus.  They are 
commercial programs.  I know of no PD or Shareware thesaurus.  If you
want one you're going to have to shell out some bucks, or in your case,
some pounds.

There shouldn't be an english word for it since having multiple spouses

NO ! NO ! NO !..

ZOO is far to bugy and has to many limitations, no output redirection
and no folder creation..

Plus one other, far to hard to use, try it on a 520k one drive machine,
out of all that I have used, LZH201x would be the simplest and the most
versatile to use...

So Please think of the masses, we do have 14 year old's using Internet here,
with free public access...

We have a Atari support BBS here in Wellington New Zealand, all archive files
are of the LZH201x format, this is because Atari users voted this way for it,
its the easyest one to use...


I am a Electronics/Computer Eng, with some 35 experience, and I have had more
problems with ZOO than any other archive format..

Plus have had a Atari since 1986, and what I state is fact and not fiction...

All the Atari users here (New Zealand) will support in what I state here..

Greetings- Personally, I'd like something like this for MIDI files (any

about 15k files (I'd need 100k plus) and about 10 minutes usage. The full
version could do it, but I don't need the other facilities, such as 
permanent recording. All I need is something which churns out data to the
MIDI ports. Anything like this around?

Borland OK, but if big nasty ugly Microsoft and Lotus, or maybe even
WordPerfect Corp would lay their hands on poor Atari, I'd have nowhere
else to go but Archimedes. Look here, people who wish to use dogs like
dBASE, WP or Lotus shouldn't but an Atari. We don't want PC software
clones on our nice computer. We want nice, GEM-using, Atari specific
programs, which can import and export to the formats of WP and Lotus,
for example, anyway. The stupid software available for PC's are one of
the main reasons I DON'T WANT ONE. I can tell, I've had to work with
the programs I mentioned. And as I said before, I'd trade WP for even
the oldest version of First Word Plus. (I bet you're thinking of the
many features that one doesn't have and WP does, but I'm talking about
the user interface. And there are many ST wordprocessors which have as
many functions as WP, for less than half the price. Gee, I just
thought of another reason not to buy PC's. Sure, you get a 786-100GHz
machine for under xxx$, but you'll have to spend about the price of
the machine itself for a wordprocessor. Stupid. Unless of course, you
do as many (almost all) PC users and get yourself an illegal copy.)

A bit of a hasy posting, and I'll probably get flamed for it. But I'll
happily sacrifice myself for getting people to understand that Atari
users generally WANT Atari's and their programs, or they'd have bought
a PC in the first place.

Okay, so perhaps I should be happy to get Neodesk to work with Mint
(run neoload in AUTO then use NEODESK.EXE as autoboot program).

Unfortunately, there are still 3 problems:

- reports out of memory when I want to reorder a directory
  (and I have 3.3 Mb free)
- doesn't back up the directory tree if floppies are changed 
  any more
- crashes sometimes with Mint reporting error in media change code.

And, ironically, I can use Neodesk under Mint but not under TOS,
cause Neodesk crashes when I try to access my single 80Mb BGM
partition. (solution with Mint was to use the ofake.zoo for
the generic U: drive).

Help mush appreciated.

Dave.

	Much as I loved Flash 1, I can't see where the features of Storm
offer any improvement's over STalker3. From the more extensive description
in ST Report, it seems that the background downloading is only workable 
while in the program. What if you don't want to edit your capture buffer 
or program in basic. At least with Stalker, as a DA, you can be down-
loading from any Gem based program. And now, thanks to a real rts/cts fix,
(serialfix1.1), even uploading at 19,200 doesn't screw up the way it used 
to. 
	I get 1660cps regularly with Stalker in zmodem, in the background, 
while reading news with Gus, or Editing in any Gem based text editor.
Even unarcing doesn't kill the download, unless you do it for long enough 
to time out.
	
	Usual disclaimer about my uninvolvment with Gribnif or Eric R goes

I've used STeno, and found it slow - and it didn't do 'everything
FZDSterm does and more' as you say.  It didn't have a great deal more
features than Uniterm. (Apart from Back-ground bits'n'pieces, which is
the real slow bit!)  Also, you need a mono' monitor for it to be
usable! (The other fonts don't fit onto the screen, or they are to
awkward to read etc.)

I may just be being picky - but I'll stick to FreeZe Dried until
something *I* consider better comes out!  Everyone has their
favourites, and you tend to stick with what does what you want, you
like, and is easily usable!

There are a lot of boot-selectors. The most common is SuperBoot, but I

SuperBoot is avaible at atari.archive. /atari/utilities/spbt_7_2.lzh

Get EMACS 18.58 and you dont' have these problems when you dump it

Wow!  I'm afraid you've got this backwards.  A sine wave has a single
frequency, where square waves and triangle waves may be constructed by
infinite sum of sine waves of *higher* frequencies.  This is called a
Fourier series.  A sine wave can be completely described by a single
frequency component.

Situation.
I have a 520STFM (2.5 meg). I will almost definately buy a Falcon.
I might also be given a PC XT from a friend. (I don't really like PC's!)

Question
If I get a SCSI drive, either in the Falcon or more likely, in the PC, can I
get both computers (or even all three!) to run from the same drive?

Thanks,
Phil

Have you taken a look at SuperBoot?  It's an autoboot program which lets
you decide which files in you AUTO folder and which accessories will
load at boot time.  You can have up to 10 different configurations.  It's
PD and should be in just about every library.
