Now that we know that System 6.0 is the last major system
software release for the IIgs, perhaps (... and this is a
big perhaps!) some of the major software titles could under
go a final overhaul to take advantage of some of the System
6.0 features! (or in the case of AWGS remove some major bugs).

My whole motivation is two-fold:

1. There will never be enough support for a major productivity
   software along the lines of AWGS so the only possibility of
   having a good product would be to fix AWGS.

2. 8 bit Appleworks was upgraded (v 2.0 to 3.0) by letting some
   programmers OUTSIDE Claris do much of the work.  Perhaps the
   same strategy could be used here.

Also, Claris has some technology that is ripe for addition to AWGS
namely XTND file translation. With Sys. 6.0 FSTs for HFS disks and
soon for MS-DOS disks, file translation would be a natural fit for
AWGS. File translation is also part of ClarisWorks so it would make
the GS and Mac products much more cooperative.

Now I KNOW that Claris is no longer updating AWGS but I sure wish 
that a major piece of software like this would get one last shot!!

Other software titles may fall under the same category. What do you
think?

Also, what ever happened to Kevin Harvey, the founder of Styleware and
the "father" of AWGS??

   Are you sure you typed that in right?  You're not even using your

fix this if you make i unsigned, or specify an unsigned output in the
printf by using:

  for(i = 0; i <= 15; i++) printf("i=%10u\n",1 << i);

To my knowledge AppleTalk should have been accessed by using an external
adapter interfaced to the smartport. I'm told that this gizmo even has been
developed, but was never marketed.

In order to avoid mentioning names, let me just say that there is a small but
incredibly vocal minority of GS users who seem to object to free software in
general and MODZap in particular.  Unfortunately, all of 1 person told me they
liked the program (big kudos to Steve Bilgrien if you read this feed) as 
opposed to the 15 or 20 mails I got condemming it as a "piece of shit" and
"the worst thing I've ever had the displeasure to use on my GS".  Therefore,
the nays have it and I'm no longer developing MODZap, and have scaled back
work on other IIgs stuff in favor of my 486.  (note that I personally am 
running MODZap 0.85 which is pretty cool, but nobody else will ever see it 
after the fiasco).

On a ROM 01 IIgs, you must set Slot 7 to 'AppleTalk' and either Slot 1
or Slot 2 to 'Your Card'.

On a ROM 03 IIgs, you must set either of Slot 1 or Slot 2 to 'AppleTalk'.
You can also set Slot 7 to 'AppleTalk', but this is only needed if you
have any programs that assume AppleTalk is in slot 7 (which should be
very rare).  Otherwise, leave it set to 'Your Card' and you shouldn't
have any problems.

	Sorry, its Friday, and I'm in a picky mood. GS/OS is not a program, its  
an operating system. Well, it is a program, but not an application. And there  
is no such thing as GS/OS volumes. GS/OS can handle multiple filing systems,  
including ProDOS, HFS, DOS 3.3 & Pascal (Read Only) and the upcoming MSDOS FST,  
but there is no GS/OS FST. We would like to maybe have a 16 bit GS/OS FST just  
for the Apple IIGS, but nothing yet.

	No, GS/OS is much more than just a 16 bit version of ProDOS. ProDOS  
stands for Professional DISK Operating System. Which means that the interface  
is just for reading and writing to disks and other medium. While GS/OS does  
incorporate ProDOS's responsibilites, the role of GS/OS has greatly expanded.  
GS/OS is a full fledged Operating System including a memory management, the  
toolbox, inits, resources, and other various functions to take advantage of all  
of the GS's hardware, as well as provide the user with a abstract means of  
dealing with that hardware.

in the least bit bitter about the paper it ate, either.

Still, though, the GS my friends are selling looks awfully appealing.
So what are your thoughts? Do I continue pouring money into the
IIc, which isn't really supported anymore, or do I just blow the
big bucks and get a newer (and possibly more reliable) GS? Anyone

Keywords: apple gs hard disk

I have an external hard drive connected to my Apple IIgs via the Apple High
Speed SCSI Card.  The drive has a total of 105 MB of space, which is divided
into 4 partitions, three of 32 MB and one containing the remaining space.
For some reason, the finder has recently decided to fail to recognize any
files or folders on the third partition, and shows the total space to be 1 K.
However, this is of the three 32 MB partitions and does (or did) have some
things on it.  What might have caused this, and what do I need to do to fix
it (hopefully other than reformatting the partition!)?

My system configuration is:

Apple IIgs CPU, ROM Version 1
1.25 MB RAM (AE GS-RAM Board)
Apple High Speed SCSI Card
105 MB Quantum SCSI Hard Disk
System v.6.0

Well, you really don't need DOS 3.3 unless you're really into computing.
DOS 3.3 is considered obsolete (and it _is_, mostly).  It can be fun to
play with, and it's a hacker (not the scumbag type, the real-life computer
geek type)'s dreamland because it's just begging for patches. :)

ProDOS 8 v2.01 is the current version, but isn't currently available
except as a part of the Apple IIGS System Disk v6.0.  Why this is so is
totally beyond me, since ProDOS 8 is designed for 8-bit systems anyway.
At any rate, you should be able to get a copy on ProDOS 8 v1.9 pretty
easily.

I'm curious, too.  Are there any sites for getting 8-bit system disks on
the net?  Also, would it be politically correct to create an 8-bit system
disk for distribution to 8-bit users who need them?  Please, no bashing,
Apple guys... I'm just curious -- the 8-bit people are being left out of
the latest advances in ProDOS, and I don't see why they should be.

What do you _want_ to do with the II+?  That's the important question.
There are excellent word processing, database, and spreadsheet programs for
it.  Games, educational software,etc, too.  You just have to know where to
look.

You should probably check to see if the II+ has a Language Card installed
(it's a board in slot 0 with a ribbon cable to a socket on the motherboard).
If it does, you have 64K, not 48K.

To get software, look in the magazines -- there are places which sell old
and/or "obsolete" software.  If you have 64K of RAM, you can run AppleWorks
2.1 by getting that and PlusWorks, which patches AW to run on an Apple II+.
You can also use AppleWriter or FredWriter for word processing.

PFS: File is a fairly good database program which will run on the II+ (if
you can find it).  The spreadsheet that comes to mind is (of course)
VisiCalc (the grandpappy of spreadsheets).

Most of the early Infocom adventure games will run on a 48K or better abble
II (pardon the spelling -- I don't think well at 3 am).

Try looking for used software, or at discount houses.  Suggestions, anyone?

Good luck!

    In some cases, moral support just isn't enough.  I suspect Pete has

Maybe we could get Perot to give all Apple II developers a $15 million

samples to the SyQuest drive.  SyQuests and other removable media (such as 
DATs) are widely used in MIDI recording and sampling, and I would like to 
do similar tasks without having to invest $14,000 in an Akai digital 
editing deck...

        I know, for example, that you need special hardware on the 
Macintosh to sample directly to a drive (and the drive needs to be fast, 
anyway).  Is such a thing possible on the GS, or should I give up?

        Thanks for any info.

All I can think of to do is to rename the util.system file to Copy.II.Plus,
then get an Icon Editor an edit the application pathname from util.system
to copy.ii.plus.

There may be a different way, but that's all I can think of right now.
