Do you use Ethernet?  There are SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGIES, why are you bothering
with it?

Oh, you want to communicate with other people?  How quaint!

Do you post news articles in RFC-1036 format?  There are SUPERIOR MAIL FORMATS,
why are you bothering with it?

And the *format* of its archives is a SECRET, meaning that no-one else can
develop other utilities for other environments that understand its format.
(Actually, Compact Pro appears to have been mostly reverse engineered, but
Stuffit 3.0 format is still a deep, dark secret, and will remain so as long
as they can manage it.)

Would you use an archive utility that encrypted your files so that you had
to phone their customer support to get the key?  Apparently so.

 I've been pretty happy with CE's Alarming Events. It's pricy, but at the time
 I bought it, there weren't many alternatives. The only major hole I can find
 is that there is no Search... commmand, so that it is difficult to determine,
 for example, when someone's birthday falls. However, the events can be
 exported (and imported) as text, so one could search that file.

 It runs OK with System 7, and seems to be compatible with everything I've
 tried.

First, make sure you're not using a high desity disk.  Some of the newer SE's
come equiped with a Superdrive.  Check the capacity of a disk you formatted
of the SE, a high density will have approx 1.4M and it has two holes in it.
One hole is the normal write protect and the other indicates that it's a high
density (same position as the write protect but on the opposite side).

Also check that the Plus has a system version that supports the Hierarchial
Filing System (I don't remember the first version to implement this).  Make
sure that your Plus can also support 800K disks.  Try formatting a non-high
density disk, you sure have a choice between One-sided and Two-sided.  If
you can't format at 800K (Two-sided) then any disk you wish to use on both
machines will have to be formatted as One-sided (400K).

Other than this any non-high-density disk should work fine on both Macs and
you shouldn't need the same system version.

Good Luck

Yes, I had the same problem.  In the Word Commands folder (I think),
there's a file called Text with Layout.  It's certainly in the
directory tree containing Word.  Under S7, you could use the Finder's
FindFile command to locate it.

Anyway, this file is your problem.  Toss it.

At least three LOGOs are now available for MAC.  I prefer Object Logo, but all
of them are nice.

* Terrapin Mac Logo is a fairly standard Logo with a few hooks into
Mac features such as quickdraw.  It also has arrays and strings.
The debugging tools are better than most Logos.  It has multiple
turtles.  You can change the turtle shape to be Mac bitmaps (or
arrays of mac bitmaps which change as it turns).  You can import
MacPaint graphics, etc.  You can have several windows open at once,
and you can control the windows with Logo commands.  You can save an
Edit window as text, preserving comments (if you save a workspace,
Logo reformats everything).

Terrapin Mac Logo lists at $99.95.
It comes with a reference manual and a nice tutorial about
programming in Logo.  Current version supports System 7.

Terrapin's address:  Terrapin, Inc.
                        376 Malden St
                        Malden, MA 02148
                        (617) 322- 4800

* Object Logo is now sold and supported by Paradigm Software in Cambridge, MA.
They can be reached at (617)576-7675.  They have recently released a new
version, Object Logo 2.51, which supports System 7.  Object Logo
 carries a retail price of $149.00.  All the comments for
Terrapin also go for Object Logo.  In addition, it has "object" oriented
extensions to the language.

* ExperLogo is available from ExperTelligence, Inc.  It is a
compiled Logo with 1,2, and 3 dimensional bunnies (everybody else
has turtles...bunnies go faster).  It supports Quickdraw calls,
menu changes, and is chock full of functions and commands.

The cost is $150.

The purpose of grammar checkers is to catch problems with "which" and
"that" as well as a slew of other common mistakes.  I use "RightWriter"
and it is programmable to a small degree.  I can turn off the "passive
voice" signal, or the "cliche" signal, or allow for 40 word sentences
without it bothering me.  I use RightWriter to catch misplaced commas,
periods, "the" for "then," etc.  And sometimes it surprizes me and finds
a mistake in grammar.  It is a great proofreader for typos though and that
made it worth the money.

Sorry to include so much of the original posting but I decided to
cross-post this and alt.usage.english has only received part of this
discussion.

At least two people were able to reproduce the error, and at least one did

There are some interesting patterns (such as adding multiples of 2n, n =
