We upgraded our machines to NeXTSTEP3.0 this weekend and are having  
problems with TeX.  Basically, we rebuilt our server from the 3.0 CD-ROM  
and installed all the extended packages, including  
/NextCD/Packages/NeXTTeX.pkg.  In principle, our is a vanilla 3.0 system.

Unfortunately, whenever you try to tex or latex a file, you get the  
following:

augustus:/Users/ray%tex temp.tex
This is CTeX, NeXT Version 3.1a
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
augustus:/Users/ray%

Well I'm stymied too.  Given that users with deadlines are clamoring for  
tex (really loudly :-() any help folks can give would be greatly  
appreciated....

A more surgical way to fix this problem is to type the following at  
a command line:

	dwrite Diagram NXSystemFonts Helvetica\;Helvetica

This will allow you to use the Preferences app to set your system  
fonts without effecting Diagram!

Could someone with the knowledge do the same kind of fix with Scene that

Scene s "center" and "size to fit" in printing features are of the most!

I'm curious to here of anyone else with this setup. Which driver
are you using, or did you design one. I'm less than optimal
results with zmodem transfers--about 7000 bits per second which
kind of sucks for a 14.4 modem.

Thanks for any info.

Agreed.  I would also be much happier if it didn't relist a directory when  
you just click on a file prior to getting it.  That means that every file  
you retrieve from sonata's submissions directory requires you to read an  
extra 20K+ of directory information.  I often use GatorFTP+ to browse the  
structure, and ftp in a Terminal window to retireve the files I want.

You should be able to use the system "tip" command
from a Terminal window.  "tip" does the async communication;
Terminal handles the vt100 emulation.

If you want to work on your own, you can get the
source code for "tip" and "tipx" from ftp.uu.net.

Subject: Configuring Mail.app?

Hi,
   I'm trying to configure Mail.app to send and receive mail.  I have a station
on a local non-netinfo network and the one machine that's hooked to the outside
world is not a NeXT.  I can send and receive mail, but only with some bugs.
The bugs are as follows.  When I send mail from the NeXT, my header doubles my
domain name (should be ludwig.pmad.uic.edu ; shows up as ludwig.pmad.uic.edu.pm
ad.uic.edu).  Also, the only way I can receive mail is if I put my entire name
as the host name in NetManager.  That is, if I put "ludwig" alone as the host
name in NetManager, then I get host name configuration errors when I try to
send mail to myself from another machine.  If I put "ludwig.pmad.uic.edu" as
the hostname in NetManager, then I can receive mail, but my prompt in Terminal
shows up as "ludwig.pmad.uic.edu>".  If the hostname is only "ludwig", the
header doubling and Terminal prompt problems go away, but I can't receive mail.

What do I do?

Do I need to create a mailhost with NetInfoManager?

Which sendmail config file should I create a link to?  Right now I have a
symbolic link from sendmail.mailhost.cf to sendmail.cf.

I need help.  Thanks in advance.

   NX_Ishido.app is a tile based game that is basically a port of Ishido
for the NeXT computer.  It is one of the projects that I worked on to
learn how to program the NeXT and I hope you enjoy it.

  It can be found on sonata.cc.purdue.edu and cd.orst.edu.
  On sonata.cc.purdue.edu it's already in the release2.0 directory and
  on cs.orst.edu, it's still in the submissions directory.

Please send me any comments about the game so that I can make it
better/easier to play.  The next version of the game will support
Saving, Loading, Printing(I didn't think people would actually want to
save their games because it IS after all, only a game), atleast.

site.  The notes from the bundle follow:

				Shane

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Crate: A simple new object for use with Stone Design's 3D_Reality(tm)
Application


This is my first attempt to use the 3D_Reality API provided by Stone
Design for use with their 3D_Reality application.  I have created a
simple new RenderMan object and an inspector for it that can be used
by 3D_Reality.  Its use is very simple.  Install the object in your
3D_Reality application (using the following instructions), start up
3D_Reality, bring up the library panel and access the new Shape called
'Crate' just as you would access any other 3D_Reality shape.

The Crate shape is nothing more than a box with a smaller box
subtracted from it (using Constructive Solid Geometry operators).  The
smaller box is centered along the width and depth axes and set so that
it just touches the outer edge of the height of the outside box.  The
result is a hollow box with no top.  A trivial shape, but also a
useful primitive.  In addition, I have provided an inspector panel
that allows choices of width, height, depth, and thickness of the box.

I make absolutely no claims to this code's stability or safety.  It
has always worked on my system, but it might destroy yours.  Use every
precaution you feel is necessary.  I also have no affiliation with
Stone Design whatsoever.  In any case, I hope this object is useful
and fun, and provides fertile ground for other imaginations to
flourish in.


Installation Instructions  

Installation is very simple.  After uncompressing and untar-ing this
package you will have a directory called `Crate.bundle'.  Locate the
pathname of the 3D_Reality.app directory on your system (I'll call it
<base>) and move the Crate.bundle directory and all its contents to
the directory <base>/3D_Reality.app/Library/Bundles.  You may require
superuser privileges to do this.

Installation is now complete.  You may start up 3D_Reality and should
find the Crate object at the bottom of the `Shapes' library panel.

I've been using PowerScan since it came out and have not had any problems  
with it, and regularly use it for faxing documents, justby going to the  
Print panel after scanning in the document in question.

What I would like to do is to be able to print out on Pre-Printed  
forms...For example, an application...which can't really be just be  
re-printed using the NeXT's printer.

I want to fill in the blanks...but whenever I scan in a form, edit it with  
whatever programme I happen to use (Icon under 2.x, Create under 3.0),  
it's always offset from the original an odd amount, and no matter how much  
I fiddle I never get it right.

Hints?

I use MajorDomo instead and got it up and running pretty quickly.  However,  
MajorDomo is basically a bunch of Perl scripts.

I've run into an odd situation. I have a Windows PowerPoint presentation
and I need to print it on a NeXT Color printer. I installed a 
color PostScript printer driver on the Windows machine and printed some
sample slides to disk. I can view these PostScript files on the NeXT --  
but there is NO COLOR. Anyone seen this before -- or solved it?

I pulled down the latest version of the MS Windows 3.1 PostScript printer  
driver, but I could not find any updated Color PS drivers. Any help would  
be much appreciated.

In my experience, what happens is that with 'hide on autolaunch'  
enabled, you don't get notified (unless you have mail waiting at log  
in) until you open the mailbox at least once; after that you get  
notified even if you've re-hidden your mailbox.  This is on 2.1, and  
though I haven't systematically checked the pattern, it has held every  
time that I've remembered to look for it; your mileage may vary.

Ciao, Stefano
