Subject:      Reverse printing - is possible??
Newsgroups: bit.listserv.notabene

I've recently given up my dot matrix and fanfold, and use a bubblejet
and cut sheets which come out face up. Is there a way to make NB print
from the last page backwards? It seems such a silly problem to have to
sort out the pages...

Is there a specialist piece of software which does this?

I offer an additional suggestion: Calvados (or a reasonable facsimile).  A
friend of mine with many apple trees rents a press in the fall, ferments the
juice, and then does some careful distilling, with pleasant, and more
 shippablem,
results.  Let us know what you do with the excess.

I would be happy to add my name to your letter - last I heard (from someone

documentation will not be shipped until then?).  I am now being seriously
held up on two projects because of this.  As far as if complaining on this

My wife assures me (and I think she's right) that I am becoming impossible to
live with as I grumpily await NB4. She has even threatened a suit against NBI
on grounds of alienation of affection. I think my kids are more interested in
the arrival of NB4 than I am---for their own sake. So let me turn to beer and
cider. Last year I was in Copenhagen and of course downed some Tuborg, which I
love. I learned that Budweiser (the American stuff) has a contract in Denmark:
they sell Bud in Denmark and Tuborg in the States. What Dane would drink Bud?
Now to cider, my work takes me frequently to London. The Pub, what an
institution (I neglect the food poisoning I got at a Pub in Hampton Court!) But
I also love cider which we can't get in this country. I live in the midst of
the US's best apple country and we don't have cider! Why? Also my English
friends warn me about the dangers of local village cider in England.  He said
there are several deaths a year from the stuff. I've always been interested in
that toxicology. Why should it be so potent?
        Well back to pacing the floor for the UPS truck and yelling at the
kids.

And another question:  It couldn't really be ORBIS that they are shipping, in
its final version (gamma or omega, or whatever comes after beta), could it?
Last we had heard you had to sign up or call in to get the prerelease beta
version sent "early" (i.e., late, with NB 4.0, but not as late as otherwise).

Newsgroups: bit.listserv.notabene

Thanks for the recipes...

Look, if I might raise a Notabenerial thing for a moment....

This follows on one of I E-Z's suggestions which doesn't work (which
is itself an amazing thing).

Is there a way of putting a line into my .SPL such that the letter i
will be uppercased to I but only where it is the first person singular
pronoun? The reason is that I also have a line "ie i.e.," (plus
italics, not shown here). When I run the speller, it turns into I.e.
because the "i" is also surrounded by separators and is not
distinguished from " i "

In other words, the speller can't discriminate between " i " and " i."
How cure this?

This, incidentally, is sparked off by one of the files in NBGENRAL.ZIP
(not, at the LISTSERV, GENERAL.ZIP as we have been told). This is a
collection well worth picking up.

Cheers,

Mervyn.

Since I intend to keep NB3.1 even after 4.00 arrives, could anyone
help me with the following small matter (directly, perhaps).  There
seems to be small corruptions of my spell checker.  Instead of saying
should it add a word to the personal disctionary "as is" it says
something like "as character-that-looks-like-a-pencil-sharpener-with-a
smiley-on-it s".  More serious, when it detects a double word, it
simply draws a box around a block of text.  I have examined nb.exe and
the wording there is OK.  Does anyone know the date of the 3.1 nb.exe
file, my one on the distribution disk is 1988, but the one on my hard
disk is 1990.

I have been away for a month, so have not followed all
of the recent discussion of the shippment of NB4, which
was supposed to be imminent at the time of my departure.
Is it true, as Dorothy Day suggested in her posting of
Aug. 5, that the program began shipping last week?  If
so, has anyone received it?

If the shipment of NB4 remains, as I suspect, in the
perpetual cycle of imminent release, then I wonder if
some of the more disgruntled customers of NBI might be
willing to collaborate with me on a letter to the company.
I have written several letters of complaint, but have
received no answer from them.  Perhaps as a group we
could state more forcefully our dissatisfaction with this
state of affairs and suggest in a constructive way the NBI
must be more honest with themselves and with us.  Such a
letter might also have the salutary effect of deflecting
complaints against NBI away from this list, where they have
long since ceased to be useful.

I use the personal dictionary replacement feature a lot for inserting
Ventura paragraph tags into text that is to be published with that program.
These are 16 character gobbets of gibbeish that I expect even Paul
Bodin might trip over if typing straight. To avoid conflict with normal
words I begin each tag abbreviation with an upper ASCII character, one of
the ones that NB provides with the Control-Alt combo. In the same spirit,
perhaps one could use Control-Alt-i (which yields i umlaut) as one's
abbreviation for i.e. (with italics). [That was gibberish.]

You get "Print.tmp not found" probably because your 'overflow drive'
as defined in your DEFAULT.SET file is different from the current
drive (for example, you work in C:, and your 'overflow drive' is
defined in D:). Check your DEFAULT.SET, at the DR= line. If this
is the case, don't even bother to do anything, unless your D:

I am about 98% certain that the source of this saying was your favorite

The statement led to an interesting exchange on the floor of the Senate,
with some prodding McCarthy to describe how a Communist walks.  He got

compression utilities.  It is in a file called "compression" in the
"doc/pcnet" directory of ftp site "ux1.cso.uiuc.edu".  It is organised
by file extension (of compressed files), and tells what Unix, Dos, and Mac
utilities exist to compress and uncompress that format - it even tells
you where to get them by ftp.

  Just to avoid any accidents:


--------------------------------
Rhubarb is a perennial herb, Rheum rhabarbarum, commonly but incorrectly known
as R. rhaponticum, and is one of the few vegetables cultivated for the leaf
stalks, or petioles. The broad, leafy portions and the roots contain poisonous
substances, including oxalic acid, and should not be eaten. Rhubarb is a member
of the buckwheat family, Polygonaceae, and is believed to be native to the
region of Turkey. It was introduced into the United States in the late 1700s. A
number of other closely related plants, including R. officinale, are also called
rhubarbs and are raised as garden foliage plants or for their roots, which are
the source of pharmaceutical compounds sometimes employed as laxatives. Several
of the docks, or sorrels, in the genus Rumex of the same family but with edible
leaves are also often called rhubarbs, including spinach rhubarb, Rumex
abyssinicus, and monk's rhubarb, both R. alpinus and R. patientia.
Rhubarb is best adapted to cool climates and is usually grown from crown and
roots rather than from seed. The plants should be located where small children
do not have access to the poisonous parts.

Subject:      help printer: NEC P6+ AND LINGUA
Newsgroups: bit.listserv.notabene

Dear Poul and other beta-printing experts:

It has been extremely encouraging to follow today's discussion on
laser printers. I am waiting for transatlantic shipment of Lingua
and all, but have never seen the information sheets from out late
Dragonfly, and therefore was not aware of the additional font
problem.

My question is: HOW ABOUT 24-PIN MATRIXPRINTERS?
I have been a happy owner of the NEC P6 PLUS for years, but real-
ize that I have a dissertation printing problem. I posted the
following query to the list back in April 28 with no response,
and now wonder whether there is any pending information avail-
able.
So this was the message:
  At my university Macintosh has conquered all, and accordingly
  dissertations are to be printed on Laserwriter. We are required
  to hand in a finished print out, using Times Romans 14 for
  text, 12 for blocks, 10 for notes, and 24 and 18 for outline
  points. The page size has to be 160 x 245 mm, which will be
  reduced to 75 %.
  Here are my questions then:
1. Will Lingua allow me to download anything else than pt 10 and
   pt 12 for printing with my Nec?
2. Is there anything I should order for my Nec in addition to my
   new Lingua?
3. Are there any commercial programs that will allow you to
   imitate post script or scalar fonts on a matrix from NB?

I do appreciate any suggestions - otherwise I will have to borrow
   HPIIIP for the week-ends, which will be a bit of a nuisance

X-To:         FRAC-L%GITVM1.BITNET@pucc.Princeton.EDU

To perform trig functions on complex numbers, it is helpful to recall Euler's
relationship:

	exp(i*theta) = cos(theta) + i*sin(theta)

Here, theta can be a complex number, not just an angle.  Also, remember that

	sin(-theta) = -sin(theta).

Combining the two,

	cos(theta) = (exp(i*theta) + exp(-i*theta))/2
	sin(theta) = (exp(i*theta) - exp(-i*theta))/2i

Note the similarity to the definitions of the hyperbolic sin & cos functions.

To raise a complex number z1 to the power z2 (also complex), let r1 and t1
be the mag and phase of z1.  Then,

	z1^z2 = (r1*exp(i*t1))^z2
	      = (exp(log(r1)) * exp(i*t1) ) ^ z2
	      = exp(log(r1) + i*t1) ^ z2
	      = exp(z3 * z2),
	where z3 = log(r1) + i*t1.

So the key to complex trig and powers is the complex exponential function.

Hope this is useful.

Tim, you said/asked:
> I am currently trying to improve the user defined formulae option since it
can currently only perform many arithmetic functions with non-complex numbers.
Does anyone know how to raise one complex number to the power of another, and
how to perform trigonometry on complex numbers?

* You can do that by applying some simple algebra to the basic definitions, e.g

Subject:      Fractal dimension

I'm a novice in the fractal word and I have the following problem:

I have some experimental data (400x400) in the form of images. The data
contain 2 byte intensity values. This correspond to an square area (LxL) whose
surface is like random image with values oscillates and has a maximum at L/20.
Using the Box-counting algorithm I allways obtain a 2 like the surface's
fractal dimension.
Anyone can point me to any code or algorithm to obtain in a correct form that
surface's fractal dimension.

Any hints will be greatly appreciated!
Please e-mail. Thanks in advance.

Cesar
