Does anyone know how to make Procomm Plus for Windows startup in a fullscreen

it myself.

Any help would be appreciated.

Go into SYSTEM.INI (whichever it saved info to... PRCOMM.INI... anyway,
under something like

Jeez, I didn't mean to start another religious war between
Mac/anti-Mac folks.  I've just taken on a job that involves
porting a professor
's Hypercard educational stack from Mac to Windows, so
colleges that are mostly Windows can run it, too.  Just
trying to reach the maximum number of people, regardless
of the platform they've chosen (or been given).
  The Hypercard stack is already written; a port of it
into the PLUS environment is almost complete (I made a
lot of UI enhancements as well).  I'm trying to determine
if WindowCraft's not-needing-a-runtime-engine feature is
worth the effort of now porting from PLUS to WindowCraft.
  No flames, please. I have enough of a job keeping up
with worthwhile email.  Thanks.

The limit actually defaults to your maximum virtual memory being 4x your 
physical memory (which means your swapfile is limited to 3x your physical
memory size.)  This is however a soft limit, you can change it by changing
the PageOverCommit keyword in system.ini.  The maximum is 20x overcommit
which allows for huge virtual address spaces but I would want to live with
the performance hit involved.

I see this all the time and it's one of two possibilities. Both are
hardware, one is remediable the other isn't.  First, remove the offending
drive and find a strong - commerical air compressor. There is a sensor on
many drives that gets covered with dust and even though it LOOKS like
you're re-reading the drive when the LED blinks, you're really just
reading the buffer which is why the DIR C: works.

The second possibility is the chip which the sensor reports to. If it's
bad, just throw the drive away and get a new one.  It WILL be in the
drive, not the controller or the system board.

My money's on the sensor.  You can't normally see that it's dusty, but it
probably is anyway.  Remember, just blowing on it won't do it.  You really
need some serious air (or you could disassemble the drive ;-) ).  Good luck.

Subject:      Re: mouse.com in high mem

  You might try using MSD.exe to examine the upper memory area to see if
EMM386 is getting it all.  (MSD.exe is installed with Win 3.1 in the
\Windows directory.)  You may be able to move your page frame around a
little or include memory that EMM386 misses with its default settings.
If you don't understand what I am saying or are leary of UMB's and
their use, check your DOS 5 manual for a pretty decent explanation of
this area of memory.

   When/if you start experimenting with the EMM386 command line arguments
remember two things:

    1.  ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, have a boot disk with a configuration that
        you KNOW will work.  Keep this configuration as simple as possible.
        You don't need to be able to run Killer apps at warp speed with this
        configuration.  You just need to be able to boot-up and edit
        your config.sys and/or autoexec.bat file enough to allow it to
        boot off of the hard disk again.  REMEMBER THIS STEP.  IT IS MOST
        IMPORTANT AND COULD MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUCCESSFULL
        COMPUTING OR AN INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING TIME WHEN YOU WONDER WHY
        YOU EVER BOUGHT ONE OF THESE @#$$%%^^&**( THINGS.

    2.  The next thing to remember, if you have paid heed to number 1,
        is that you cannot hurt the machine by what you type.  Go ahead
        and experiment, you may be surprised at what you will find.

    2a. OK... OK.... So I said two things.  I lied.  The third thing to
        remember is to change only 1 thing at a time, otherwise you will
        have trouble figuring out just what broke or fixed the machine.
        (Figuratively, of course.  ;-) ) And when you find something that
        works, save it somewhere, or write it down before you go on trying
        something else. Otherwise, you will be wishing you had if your
        latest experiment fails and you can't remember what those settings
        were that actually WORKED.  (I have broken this rule many times
        only to find my self pissing away time trying to get back to a
        working setup.  This usually happens in the context of Murphy's
        Law.  You will have a paper due, or someone else want's to use
        the machine, or your boss is watching,  <<insert your own worst-
        case-scenario here>>.

    I know this is not a direct answer to your question, but I saw that
posted earlier.  It's just that there is no substitute for experience.
(Good and not-so-good)

aren't those hosts the hosts that you entered by running custom? we
have only one host so it doesn't matter to us, but, what we do is
create multiple .cfg files in telnet then save them as files. we
can then add multiple icons on the screeen which if clicked launches
the cusomized telnet session. the command line under the icon would
look like this:

c:\netmanag\telnet.exe -f myhost.cfg

  AND NOW,
  to FINALLY end all of these USELESS arguments about Win3.1 memory, Hear Ye!
  In the Win3.1(yay!!) vs. OS/2 2.0(BOO!!) comparison in PCMag, it was clearly
  stated that in 386enh. mode 256MBs of memory are handled. This means that
  Windows uses the 24-bit selector-offset adressing scheme, or something of
  the sort.

Quick, what's 2^24?  Answer: 16 Mb.  So "24 bits of something" isn't the answer.
And 8192 selectors with 64K worth of offset each might provide you with the
number 512MB, but that's not the right answer either.

  Any Questions? Ask PCMAG!

If your question is of the form "How many pages are in the latest PC Magazine?"
it's a fine place to go for reliable information.

Subject:      Interrupting mail/Win3-L archives

I though I would post this as this may also answer some questions are
starting to ask.  Someone has alreadyasked me directly if their
mail messages "vaporized" if they set their listserv account to
NOMAIL.  The answer is that the mail is simply never sent--they are
not held.  When you set your account to MAIL, the listserver simply
just starts sending current messages again.

This does not mean you never see the messages though.  Every posting
is archived on this list.

"Well, how do I get it from the archive?", you might ask.

Send a listserv command to the listserver (LISTSERV@UICVM) in the form of
INDex WIN3-L.  You will receive a file in netdata form giving a list
of the archives.  There is a file for each week.  Just look for the one
that is within the timeframe that you need.  Then send another command:
GET WIN3-L LOG9201A for example.  Note this is a two-part file name--
WIN3-L and LOG9201A.

So, any messages lost while your host is down (with your listserv account

Does anyone know of a site for updated drivers
for a Toshiba 6400sx laptop, the colour or
mono version. The drivers in the box are
for Win 3.0 and don't work at all, as far as
I can determine.

The drivers need to handle a external monitor
in some decent colours although resolution is
not to important (ie. 640x480 256 col.)

I've just bought a 386 with wp51, mswindows and wpwin. The wp51 works
fine, but when I try to get to windows I am told the heim.sys is not
installed or incorrectly placed in the config.sys. I've tried everything
I can think of the fix this to no avail

Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.

Ken Latta asked about Win 3.1 using more than 16 MB.

I cannot tell wether windows really uses the space above 16 MB, because I
was not able to create that many applications (currently my screen is
filled with more than 20 icons...)  but at least the help info screen
tells me that still 28.336 KB are free (and I don`t doubt that).
With WIN 3.0 it was different. The help info only showed 16 MB, although
32 MB of RAM were installed.

With regards

Subject:      UART overrun and Procomm Aggravation

I haven't changed any parameters at all but have had UART overruns and 8,000
crc errors lately using Procomm for Windows.

My settings:

Windows COM 1 19.2
All Procomm settings 19.2 (dialing dir, default baud etc)
Modem is a v.32 9600 UDS modem

Any help curing this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Mike
