I am thinking of buying a Casio pocket electronic organizer, specifically
the SF-4300, which sells for $70 locally.  This unit can exchance data with
a desk computer using the same interfase as Casio Boss organizers.  Does
anyone use one of these?  What Mac software do you use to organize your
schedules and phone lists?

I'll also add my appreciation for John Norstad's work and service
to all Mac users in developing and giving away Disinfectant.

One System 7 feature I'd like to see Disinfectant support is
drag-and-drop, so that you could virus-check a file/folder by dropping
its icon onto Disinfectant's icon. It would be a lot more convenient
than navigating a Standard File Dialog to find the thing to be scanned.
There is, of course, the issue of whether dropping an icon onto
Disinfectant means merely to scan it, or to also attempt to disinfect
it. That may be solvable with a popup dialog that asks which you mean.

The three you mention are all commercial products that allow you to _mount_

If you just want to transfer stuff from a DOS disk to the Mac and vice-versa,
Apple File Exchange, which is included with System6 and System7 will
do it... it's ugly but it'll work.

As a reasonably happy user of WriteNow (from V1.0) I thought I might throw
my couple of cents worth in:
1. You can navigate through dialogue boxes from the keyboard
2. Endnote is the best way to seriously deal with references as it
maintains a bibliographic database. If you want a work around for endnotes
when you finished your article save it in MacWrite format then reopen in
WriteNow - instant endnotes!
Of course, it is not perfect - Word certainly isn't - so I have a few
suggestions based upon my usge needs  in production of the usual range of
correspondence as well as academic papers for publication (in rough order
of importance):
1. Variable sized headers and footers, without largest determining size  
throughout document.
2. Publish and Subscribe is important as it obviates the need for many
complex tools within an application, ie. you use the right tool for the
job.
3. Graphics wrap - to allow vertical graphics besides text. It does not
have to be sophisticated.
4. Find by Style.
5. Soft Return, eg. Option + Return - useful in balancing sentences
within a paragraph.
6. Boxed text as a Style option - more useful than some of the exotic
Underline styles.
7. Speed up Text file opening!
8. Vertical scrolling ruler - to estimate size of graphics. (Starts at zero
at the top of each page).
9. Import/export style sheets from/to other word processors.
10.Thesaurus could provide guesses if word not found. (Which brings up
question of why Thesaurus and Dictionary could not be combined - saves
space, etc).
11.Stand-alone dictionary editor.

And definitely NOT necessary:
1. Drawing tools - if you need these use a graphics programme and import. 
	(Except the horizontal line is a nice touch; could this be extended to a
vertical line?).
2. Table of Contents, Index, etc - if you need to use these there are more
suitable programmes available, eg. Pagemaker. Anyhow, indexing is 
basically a manual task as a good index indexes concepts not words!
3. Text manipulation, as distinct from word processing, as there are better
purpose made tools for this purpose, eg. Vantage.

Announcing the availability of DarkSide of the Mac 3.2:

You can get the latest version of DarkSide from ftp.apple.com,
found in the /hacks directory.  Feel free to post on other
FTP sites as well.  I will not be posting DarkSide to c.b.m., but
someone else can do so if they wish.

For those of you not aware, DarkSide is a freeware extendable
screen saver with 40 different faders.  It runs as an
application and does not patch any traps.  It works under System 7 - 
and is 32 bit clean.   You'll find that DarkSide has almost all of
the features of commerical INIT-based screen savers...

It is important to note that DarkSide 3.2 requires System 7 to run!
You can obtain DarkSide 2.5 from sumex-aim for an unsupported
system 6 version of DarkSide with considerably less features.

The new features that were added to 3.2 were done at the request of 
registered users of DarkSide.  If you would like to become a registered
user of DarkSide, and receive an offical release disk and printed
documentation, you can find details on how to do so in the documentation.
The documentation also contains details on how to obtain the source
code to DarkSide.

New features for 3.2:
- two new faders: Typewriter, and Particles
- notification scrolling now features application or DA name 
(for those that it can)
- fixed a few minor bugs (with notification)
- a new option to "auto-install" the DarkSide alias into your startup items
folder.

DarkSide 4.0 is currently in the works, and will include a reworking of
windows
and dialogs to be completely modeless, a custom segment loader (shooting
for a memory size of around 48K), some more faders (of course) - including
a special Portable fader, and one other major feature (that I'm not
mentioning).
DarkSide 4.0 will continue to be freeware, and continue to require system
7.

Quite true, and another good reason to use styles for such sweeping format
changes.  Explaining these fully is beyond the scope of one posting (and

Hey, before you do this, check the standard entries in the Glossary:
"file name" and "file name with path" are listed there, so I imagine they'll

  (1) it grows awesomely slow with a few objects and a few
equal-length constraints (links).
  (2) with equal-length constraints, when you rotate one object around
another, suddenly a link flips to a wrong quadrant and the diagram
appears to become disconnected.  Arrgh.
  (3) and sometimes when yu move an object in such a
length-constrained drawing, the constraint-satisfaction program goes
wild and puts some of the objects half a mile off the screen!

 The last time I had this trouble was around 1960 when Ivan Sutherland
was debugging Sketchpad.  His constraint program had some bugs, too,

Nope.  LocalTalk broadcasts do not work like Ethernet broadcasts, and
are not propogated over the ether.  Likewise works only on LocalTalk,
as I understand it (see the appropriate MacWEEK).  When a broadcast is
sent by a Mac on LocalTalk, it specifies which physical network wire it
wishes to broadcast on, so it is more like a sub-net broadcast in
ethernet.  Normal nets have a limit of 32 nodes on a physical wire, but
you can bypass this limit by using a repeater.  Still, there is a hard
limit of 254 nodes per network, so at most 254 Macs can receive any
given broadcast.

And again, any node (Mainframe, Mac, LaserWriter, etc) that gets the
broadcast must be on LocalTalk wiring.  Likewise requires it.

Unless you have LocalTalk cards in all 3000 PCs, don't count on them
receiving broadcasts from Likewise, NBP requests, RTMP responses, etc.
