Speaking of Ansi... The author of AnsiTerm has jus released version 1.0
of AnsiTerm.  This version now supports xmodem transfer, screen dump and
capture and key board macros.  It's somewhat slow, works best at 1200 bd
and does not support color.  If there is any interest, I'll send it to
the Archives.  If you don't have ftp access and want a copy, drop me a 
note and I'll send you a copy.

I just got a working copy of that game Phantom. (last night, actually.  I 
was up at 3am unDiskComming the damned thing!)..  It's a pretty good 
game.  It looks like Gauntlet, has the object of Ghostbusters, and the 
most repetetive music I've ever heard! (next to Tetris on the GameBrat.) 
(the music is it's only bad point)

Very nice graphics.  If Dandy or Gauntlet look anything at ALL like this, 
they'll become a must on my list!

BTW: Bob Woolley has been kind enough to send out a spare copy of Action! 
that he has!!!  And is offering me a 1200xl OS upgrade (that means Quick 
will work!) and a RAM upgrade (he says 256k simms cost about $1!.. with 
that DDIII will work MARVELOUSLY!)... and all for minimal charges.

Damn you 8-bitters are kind souls! ;) 

BTW: (mainly to Jeff McWilliams, but also anyone else interested) Bob 
said that the way HE does 1200xl OS upgrades is to use EPROMs.  Rather 
than pull one of the 2 24-pin OS sockets and replace one with a 28-pin 
socket for the new OS (and the other spare could be used for built-in 
BASIC), he just EPROMs the OS onto two 24-pin chips and plugs 'em in.  He 
said something about 800 OS being on them too, hence no more FIXXL'ing, 
just flipping the OS (how..!?!?) over to 800 mode when I need it.. (to 
play that game "Smush"..hehehe)

Anyways... it sounds really interesting.  Most of what he says is beyond 
me, tho, but all I want is the comfort of having a nice operating system 
;) (and being able to see the BIG Dem, the Das Omen demo, Fred and 
Mission Shark, and Quick...heheheheh)

yeah...ANSI.  I'm gonna start work on a SIMPLE SIMPLE SIMPLE ANSI 
graphics editor.  No text, just ANSI colored spaces.  It'll work in 
Graphics 11 mode (80 x 192 x 16..  with 8 pixel-high pixels to make it 
look just like an 80 x 24 x 16 ANSI screen on them thar IBMs.)

I've just gotten interested in ANSI lately, with my BBS program being 
able to so easily support it and all.

fun fun fun.
It'll be in either BASIC (probably) TurboBASIC XL (if I'm tempted) Quick 
(NOT!..1200xl's not fixed yet) or Action!, if I get it soon enough.

Damn..          I'm workin too hard lately...

Bill,

Bob Woolley's method makes good sense.  It's not hard to put an 800 OS on
EPROM, you run the Atari 800 OS every time you load the Translator.
As for flipping a switch to get the different Operating Systems,
you can either put two OS'es on one set of EPROMS and toggle the Most
significant address bit high, or stack two sets of EPROMS and toggle
the Chip enable pins on both chips.

Chris, the Falcon is a 16 mHz 68030 with a lot of enhancements, much improved
pallet, digital signal processor, etc. It's target price is/was less then
$1000. Unfortunately, I've talked with a local Atari dealer & he says the
1st ones will be PAL versions sent to Europe so..... ARRGHH! 
Well, I guess there aren't enough outlets left in the US to introduce the

Date: Tue, 01 Sep 92 10:40:12 PDT

Yikes... damn.. AMODEM really IS "BobTerm, but in BASIC"!!!  (I got 
version 4.something from the archive, and version 7.52 from a BBS last 
night.  It was described as "having all the features as BobTerm, but in 
BASIC"... which, amazingly enough,  it DOES!  I wish I would've gotten 
this long ago instead of version 4.x!!  I used some of the routines in 
4.x as a base for my modem-using programs.  It's not a bad start, but like
I posted earlier, I had to make a GOSUB'd routine to handle all the "all 
the time" things (clock, chat mode, etc) and then jump to it all the 
time!  AMODEM has an ML routine doing it!  

One drawback though... I (legally) can't use much from v.7.52 because 
it's NOT PD...          So I guess I made that clock handler before i got 
it! haha...

Anyways.. for a good hack, i recommend AMODEM 7.52(or higher...!?)

I'll (evENTUALLY) see if I can upload it to the archive (to get that 
place up to date! ;) )..

oh, one more drawback.... using MyDOS 4.53/4, BASIC (rev.C?), SX Handler 
(by Trent Dudley...same guy I beleive..?), (and with Hyper E: v.2 
installed.. it takes a K or 2), it only has a 2K buffer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It WILL be released here.  Be patient.  Things can't happen overnight.

The first ones are sent to Europe because that's where the bulk of Atari's 
business is.

Quick is sold by Power Per Post of Germany.  (Note: Quick doesn't run on 
un-upgraded 1200xl's..  ie, you need the XL/XE Operating System to run 
it).

The address on the disk says:

Marek Tomyzck(sp?) was good enough to send me a copy of it.

Well, we seem to have some new readers of csa8, welcome.
I've posted how to get Quick a while ago, I guess I should repost
that message.
You must know Quick is a piece of German software, so it's more
difficult to purchase for American users than for Germans.

Therefore I've asked the distributor of Quick and S.A.M.
(Power per Post) about ordering and paying from abroad.

Here's what they anwsered:

1. you have to send your order to

   Power per Post
   Melanchthonstr. 75/1
   Postfach 1640
   W-7518 Bretten
   GERMANY

you do not need to know the ordering numbers nor the price. Simply
write what you want. eg. Quick, S.A.M.
Mention the type of your computer.

2. then 'Power per Post' will send a reply telling how
   much you have to pay.

3. go to your local bank and get an international money-order

4. send your money-order back to 'Power per Post'

5. wait for the stuff to come


Ok, I admit it's quite a lot of work, but that's the way they want
to handle it.

-----------------
BTW: Bill, you said that you got in touch with PPP by yourself.
Did they gave you additional information about Quick and ordering?

You didn't mention what equipment you have. For instance, if you just have
a direct connect modem for the Atari, like a 1030, you can log onto a local
service (like Inter Net) & just mail the files to yourself. Then logon with
the IBM & download them. If you have an 850 or PR:Connection for the Atari
then you can just buy a "NULL modem connector" for about $10. If you have
a modified 1050 disk drive or a double density like Indus, there are a
couple of utilities for the IBM that will read them. If all you have is a
stock disk drive & the Atari, there's a way to hook them up via the joystick
to the IBM serial port, but you need about $3 in parts & a soldering iron.

OK.  Now I'm back after 4 days of hanging 160 feet in the air from a bungee

use hard drives.  I just came across one myself recently and was wondering
about what exactly I can hook up.  I vaguely remember reading a review that
stated that it could use a RLL/MFM w/ aplicable controler.  I also remember
that you could hook up a SCSI drive.  This needs no controller, right?  Just a
case, power supply, and cables.  If this is true then I'll be able to hook up a
sweet little 42 Meg SCSI drive i found in Computer Shopper for $198.

Just had to add that the TG16 has a version of Galaga called Galaga '91.
(or is that '90?)  it is a good "spiffed up" version of the orginal.
They added a few new things, like 2 vertical scrolling areas with "bosses"
(very wimpy) at the end and you are able to go to different levels of
the game.  But even with the added stuff it still feels like Galaga of old.
Most levels have the stationary screen and the bugs fly into formation
and has the bonous screens and the music is great!!!  (I sometimes play
the game to hear the bonus level music!)

Hello!  HELLO!?!?  It's not even DONE yet!!!!!  Sheesh!!!  The PD version 
will be uploaded to these sites by yours truly, but ONLY after it's DONE!

ABACUS BBS (San Fransisco)
BAAUG BBS  (SF Area..)
Key System/SLCC BBS  (San Leandro)
AtariBase BBS   (Sunnyvale)
        (all above sites in San Francisco area, Calif., USA)

These are the only Atari 8-bit supporting places I reach (and at major 
cost as it is!)


Thanx for the total interest...  these things do take a bit of time, tho!

Boy!    For being comp.sys.atari.>8bit< we sure are getting enough Falcon 
traffic flowing through here!  I'll see if I can SOMEHOW post the info. 
that's available on this system (yes! an IBM board!!) about the Falcon030 
onto the 8-bit conference.  Even though it's an ST!!...
As the Sysop here (who's a musician, midi-god, etc..hehe) said: "The 
Falcon is a Midi user's wet dream"... or something very close to that.

Anyways...even if it takes loading BobTerm and jamming the thing onto a 
disk and ascii uploading it as a post, I'll get this done...

just to stopall the "what is it?"'s!!!
