       Does anyone happen to have some source code (pref. C) for formatting/
 reading Atari double sided 10sectors per track/82 tracks diskettes? I have
 a large amount of data that i need to import to a sparc station and all I 
 have are floppies and a modem. I would like to write a patch mtools or
 perhaps a completely seperate program... Thanks for any help

I agree with this assessment; Calligrapher is a first-class document processor
IMHO (I can't agree with it being entirely "crash-proof", but how much
software is?).

The ability to use standard GDOS fonts is in my view very important for any ST
word-processor. I was therefore disappointed to find that amongst the
features listed in the new version of Calligrapher is the abandonment of
support for GEM bitmap fonts. I phoned Working Title to check this recently
but the person I spoke to seemed not to be in a communicative frame of mind,
so I can only guess at the reason for this change.

only supports its own disc fonts and PostScript type 3 fonts (ones sent by
PageStream for non LaserWriter fonts).  If you are... stop!  Send only fonts

I've bought my Computer, because of the SM124 flickerfree-monochromemode!
The many things I can do with my old MST 4 / TOS 1.2 serve me well, but
since I do a lot of DTP now, I'd love to get a faster Computer, without
changing the Software ;-)

I hate postings like 'I have the best computer'. People who know, what they

Price. It would have made the Falcon030 much more expensive, I guess.
Remember, the Falcon030 is a consumer machine for mass market.

I guess it will not be a CPU, but a 'custom chip', a graphics chip
probably. It being a CPU raises a lot of questions concerning compatibility
with the MC680xx series. Or it should be a MC680xx compatible CPU.... nah,
no way! ;-) (if this all is true, of course!)

Giving such an answer indicates that it is most likely that it will be a
CRISC CPU, in which some instructions are (like in RISC CPU's) mapped
directly into hardware and other ones still have the microcode step. (like
in CISC CPU's)

Help !

I've had a problem with the '*' key on the keypad of my ST whereby the keytop
snapped off (ie: the leg that the keytop is part of snapped).  I made the
fatal mistake of gluing the keytop leg back together without taking the  
rest of the keyboard appart - the result of this was that I glued the
key solidly in place !

I then dismanteled the keyboard, unstuck the key and cut away the plastic so
that the key mechanism worked properly.  The problem is that when I came to
put the keyboard together afterwards I discovered that I was one little
rubber 'bit' missing.  The piece I am missing is about 1cm accross and
contains a small graphite block which makes the contact on the PCB.

In cross section it looks like this:

		ttttttttt
		t  KKK  t
		   KKK
		 KKKKKKK
		 KKKKKKK
	           /X\	
                  /   \
-------------------------------------PCB


where the ttt bit is the keytop and the KKKK bit is the key leg.  The
rubber bit I am missing is the /X\ bit above.

Does anyone have any of these (or the whole key mechanism) (eg: from a defunct
ST they may have lying around) ?  Any help gratefully received as I am having
to push a screwdriver through the hole in the keyboard to make contact below
whenever I want to use the '*' on the keypad (which I need quite a lot as it
is 'escape function' when connected to the computer at work).

Thanks

Subject: The 64-bit CPU by Atari

    On Tuesday evening Bob Brodie showed up to the Delphi conference.  The
following questions and answers are paraphrased a bit, but are as close as
I remember them.
    Q: Can you squash the rumor that Atari has designed a 64-bit CPU?
    A: No, I can confirm that rumor as true.
    Q: Will it be used in a future computer? (non-game console)
    A: Its only logical a CPU be used in a computer.
    Q: Is it RISC or CISC based?
    A: That would be risky to say.  (notice the pun :)

    For me this was the first confirmation from Atari I have heard on this
64-bit chip as fact.  The question still remains to me if this is really a CPU
or a GPU, and that I guess will remain to be seen, as has already been discusse
d a general CPU would be next to unbelievable.

I could be wrong, ...  SPC is a compressed spectrum 512 picture,
 and spu is an uncompressed one.

Spectrum 512 is a commercial package, not PD , but however,
 there are some public domain viewers around.

CS-TeX Version 4.05 ?
Multi-TeX Version 5.04 ?

If you use Lindner-Tex, there is a nice shell which controlls everything.

Have you tried the -k option, skip bad headers.?.



Also I don't think LZH201 supported comments at all..??


I don't have problems with LZH201L at all, well there was one file I cound not

    i also have reported a bug to hisoft with little response. In general
they are very good with on-line support on Cix. Mention was made though of

If it appears on the front of a mag then i would guess they regard it as

I hope to release it for the new year ! I've had report for those CRC
