I've had partial success since my last message.  I called
Gateway and (after a five minute wait) I spoke with someone
in their technical help area who was very nice but not very
helpful.  Her only advice was to try it on another BBS to
make sure it wasn't just the machine I was connected to.

Well, I never had a chance to follow her advice.  I discovered
the Unix machine to which I was connected can handle zmodem.
First try ... it worked fine.  Since I don't especially need
Kermit now, I'm satisfied with the modem (I've successfully
sent faxes and I can make 9600 baud connections).

I just have one question.  The transfer went along at about
900 cps.  Is this the faster I can expect to transfer files.
I read somewhere that the compression techniques should bring
my cps to over 3000.  Is this true?

Does anybody know of a phone number and address book for windows that
might also have a DOS TSR counterpart?  It should use the same data
and thus I'd be able to get at it either as a Windows program or not
if I happened, as I am right now, not using Windows.

I have a complicated Stacker setup (two stacked hard drives C/F & D/G and a
stacked RAM drive E) and have run without incident for several months now.
I DO take the following two precautions, however:

(1) Backup everything (the Stacked C & D stuff, and the unstacked F & G
    stuff minus the STACVOL) every week to two weeks.

(2) Run both Norton Disk Doctor (with the /QUICK option) and Stacker's
    SCHECK on all drives from AUTOEXEC.BAT at system startup.

Sure, it means I have to set aside a couple of hours every two weeks and
wait several more minutes for my system to start up, but one can never be
too careful.

I think Stacker is great if one takes care to use the product prudently.

You could use a formula field.  Although WFW2 has the Equation Editor,
there is also a little-known way of generating formulas by typing a
TeX-like sequence of commands.  One of the options allows you to
generate a box of any number of sides surrounding any sequence of
text.  I remember that the command to generate box is \x, but forget
don't have the manuals in front of me for the side generation options.
Unfortunately, I think the formula fields are documented only in WFW1
manuals.

Anyway, first generate a field with ctrl-F9, which will generate a
pair of curly braces for you.  Then type the intermediate text and
get:
{eq \x(This text is in a box)}
and press shift-F9 to evaluate the field.  I use equation fields all
the time for scientific papers.

There is a powerpoint translator script for Apple File Exchange
that you can get from MS and, most likely, from various ftp sites
(I don't know which ones).  I have used this extensively and it
works 'well'.  Sometimes I have to translate a file more than once
to make it work right.

Datastorm Technologies is making a maintenance release of

may be downloaded by anyone - no password required.

This release fixes many things, including the 'resource depletion'
problem, which causes unexpected crashing of the system.

A copy of version 1.00 must be already installed on the system 
to be upgraded.

The bbs' numbers are 314 875-0503 and 314 875-0608.

The Canon model is much different than the Logitech model.  The Logi
camera is digital, downloads to the computer via a digital (parallel,
I think) port, is low-res (B/W), and uses RAM for storage.

The Canon uses analog floppies for storage, can download to the computer
via NTSC video or a special SCSI drive, and has (color) resolution 
similar to that of a consumer video camera.

I don't have the Fotoman specs with me still, but I think it can only
hold around 16 pictures.  The Canons can hold 25 or 50 (depending on
the resolution) frames.

I use a Sony Mavica - same disk technology, but fairly low-res (50
frames of video per disk), cheap (<$300 for camera and playback adapter),
and audio capable (~8 seconds audio - takes up one frame space on the
disk).

Note that the Canon models (especially with the SCSI drive) are much
more expensive than the Fotoman (well over $1000).

I've been trying to automate downloads from the Sony because I like
the ability to have audio associated with each picture.  My hope is
to make a microcontroller that connects to the audio port of the
camera and encodes some data (student ID from mag stripe reader) on
the audio frame to go along with the video frame.  Then, during
download, the video frame would automatically be saved according to
the info in the audio frame.

With 8 seconds of audio, even at 300 bps, a healthy amount of data
could be saved: time, date, ID, position info from GPS receiver...

The Sony model is well set up for hacking.  I have the service
manuals for it.  If anyone is interested, send e-mail.

Sorry, Microsoft has documented this as a "feature" of Windows 2.0
(yes, it did work in 1.1, but then they "fixed it" so that you 
wouldn't be surprised by the output).  I complained on the net about 
this about a month ago, but either no one cared then or I didn't have
an eye-catching subject line.

I purchased this CD-ROM and am extremely happy with it. The new 1992 updated
microsoft bookshelf has more hypertext links between books for looking up
relevant material, a nice "send to" feature to send articles or text to 
your work documents, and it even footnotes the entries automatically!

My only gripe is that it performs a full install of Word 2.00a onto 
the Hard drive.  It would have been nice to have been given a choice.
Howver, I have other clip-art CD-ROMs that I use and being able to run the 
word portion without the CD-ROM is useful at times. The clipart is stored 
as compressed files on the ROM.  I am not sure why, with all that room
available...

The animations and sound effects are also updated and I have had to problems
adding them to my word documents, but they don't print very well ;-).

    Does this happen even if you're not caching the Stacker volume? 
In the Stacker manual it warns against using caching programs on stacked
drives, but I didn't think that the warning applied to non-stacked drives.
I have my Windows 3.1 set up to load from the stacked volume, but the 
swap file is created on my non-stacked C: (which *is* cached using Windows

Can anyone explain why MS insists on putting an ascii 04 character at the begining of its postscript
output? I typically print to file and then use qvt_net to print it. I do have a utility that strips
the characters from the file, but its quite anoying when I forget. I get pages of postscript output
with no way to deque the job from the print server.

Is there anyway around this or to automate the filtering of the postscript file?
