Hi,

Hey!

Y'all know how to set and find out the expiration date on these here  
posts?  From what I understand, the deletion of old posts is dependant on  
the date that they expire, which is somehow set by the poster when he/she  
posts.  I would like to be able to set the expiration date on my posts  
(I'm posting through NewsGrazer 2.0) and would also like to know how to  
find out when other people's articles will expire.

Can someone explain this to me?

you have a fax modem and havn't try it, check it out from FTP site! 

However, I'm now using the "tip" command to remote login to the school

In the NeXT System Administration and Networking Manual, it mentioned
that I can also set up the UUCP to receive file and mails.
How to do it?

More exactly, I'm confused in the part to setup remote host in the

Is there anybody who set it up correctly could help me out?

Hello!

A while back there was a thread about people having difficulties
registering Mathematica and obtaining a password. Well, we had three
machines of which only two had e-mail access. And so we phoned to
Wolfram to obtain a password. After the initial drawback ("No we do
not have email and fax access...") we got connected to a very
knowledgeable person who gave us our password pretty soon. We also
asked him if he knew why the machines with e-mail access hadn't
received a password yet (after two weeks). He told us to send e-mail
to him directly and after that (within a very short time) we had all
the passwords we needed. I mentioned the thread on Usenet about these
difficulties (and now comes the nice bit!) whereupon he asked me to direct
anyone on the net with these problems to him. Well, in order to save
him a lot of trouble, I will not give his address in this article but
anyone who would like it can send an e-mail to me and I will give it.
Thus my trust in Wolfram has been restored ;-)))

happy Mathematica hacking,
Annard

You might want to check the disk that the news articles are stored  
on...I've got a semi-flakly harddrive that has a few bad sectors on it and  
if NewsGrazer trys to read a file sitting on one of them, it'll bomb with  
no warning.

To check and see if this is the case you could try something like in a  
Stuart or Termial window:

find ~news -name "*" -print | xargs -i cat {} /dev/null 1> /dev/null 2>  
~/junk

That should give you a list of bad files in the file 'junk', your mileage  
may vary, I use zsh, so your syntax may be a bit different depending on  
the shell you use...This will take awhile to run (on my machine, a 25Mhz  
040, and a ~news directory size of 25 megs, it took a little over an hour)   
If anyone knows of a better way to do this, I'd love to hear it.

Subject: 3.0 floppy clobbers AFS subdirectories!
Organization: Stanford University CSLI
Date: Sat, 10 Oct 1992 01:49:24 GMT

For those of you running AFS, here are the facts:
  I wanted just to examine what was on my 3.0 CD, read the instructions  
carefully, taking note of the warning about removing AFS before upgrading  
to 3.0.  But that warning was given *after* the instructions for using the  
3.0 floppy to install the software needed to read the CD, and *after* the  
instructions for inserting the CD and looking for the Upgrade3.0  
application.  So I figured as long as I didn't actually start up the  
Upgrade application, I could have a look what was on the CD.
   Unfortunately, by inserting the floppy that prepares your system to  
read the CD, and restarting your machine afterwards like it asks you, the  
system won't restart, that is, if you were connected to the AFS hierarchy  
on the intenet.  The restart hung at "Starting System Services", and to  
get past this I had to type a control-C.  
  When I finally got logged on, I saw that all the AFS subdirectories were  
no longer functioning (they appeared as broken links).  So all the  
information, literature, and software that was stored on other machines  
throughout the country but which appeared as part of my file structure got  
clobbered.  
  What a loss!  I thought 3.0 was suppose to improve the networking  
capabilities of the NeXT.  If it allows us to connect to Appletalk at the  
price of losing AFS, it is no bargain for me.

What I'm looking for is something where I
would be able to play a passage on my keyboard (Yamaha DX-7)
and have it captured by the sequencing software
in traditional music notation format.  And then be
able to edit the passage on the next by moving
notes around, changing note durations, etc.  And
then be able to play back the edited passages through
my synthesizer.

Am I crazy to believe such software exists??

If this information is in a FAQ, please flame

FAQ archive containing this information.


Any peice of information you may, not matter how
small, would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
A question which has probably been asked a million times before but I get  
little response on this sort of thing from NeXT UK.

Is there a version of Lotus 123 for NeXT? I know about Lotus Improv but  
the key thing is that I have users here who are addicted to 123 command  
sequences and have their brains fried if they try anything more  
sophisticated. Failing that how about a Services utility to convert  
Command-key sequences a-la 123 Into Improv commands (only joking :-) ).

Thanks for responses (in advance).

I use Stuart 2.3 and have some across the following error:

The font Times-Roman of size 14 is not fixed pitch.  Substituting an Ohlfs 10-point font.

I also get this error from Terminal:

The font 'Times-Roman' is not a constant-width font.

I use both 3.0 and 2.x machines, and get the same error from both.  Under 3.0, I have  
Times-Roman as my Fixed Pitch Font (which is obviously a problem if it is not a fixed  
pitch font,) but I don't see why Terminal and Stuart complain on the 2.x machines.

Any comments/suggestions would be a great help,

It was said that Real Programmers Rebuild Their Disks. So I did, after I

this way than if I had used NeXT's upgrader. I may not care. None of my
multifloppy Squash archives can be extracted under 3.0. At least, I haven't
figured out how. When it gets to the end of the first floppy, it says it
received an error from the Workspace, and then asks for the next floppy.
This error, however, seems to result from a failed attempt by Squash to eject
the first disk. Ejecting from the Workspace doesn't help. Does anyone know
what I can do about this?

Aside from shooting myself, that is?

This seemed the most elaborate but perhaps simplest of two solutions. 

Note that MH is in /pub/next/2.0-release/source.  

James Dehnert (zeke@znext.cts.com) proposed a simpler solution that gets more  
to my intention, involving a simple Sendmail-addheader" file. This is my plan B  
and has the advantage of simplicity. I cannot vouch that MH works (I haven't  
played around with it) ---especially in light of the directory in which it was  
found.

Sure. $300 seems like a good upper bound on the price. But for that
price it should be able to run a variety of apps (Lemmings and DPIV would
top my list) and emulate most of Amiga's hardware (sprites, multiple screens,
HAM, four channel sound, ...). I don't care about true floppy disk emulation 
but it would be a plus to be able to use copy protected floppies. It would be 
great for the emulated Amiga to see the NeXT's file system as well.

Seems pretty difficult to me.

I've heard a bit about RightBrain's new music notation app, and I need
a lot more information. I tried emailing Jack Reynolds at the address 
reynolds@hsd.com, but that bounced. If anyone could mail me answers to the 
following, I'd be eternally greatful(and post a summary, as well :)  )
 
1) What is the feature set? Is it suitable for orchestral scores? New music?
2) Is it shipping?
3) What's the price? Is there a student price?
4) Is a demo available? Is it on the archives?

Thanks.
