Subject: Freeware editor recommendation wanted
From: djbpitt+@pitt.edu (David J Birnbaum)
Date: 20 Nov 92 14:37:51 GMT
Organization: University of Pittsburgh

Can anyone recommend a good, simple freeware msdos text editor? It
doesn't need a lot of fancy word processing features, but it does have
to be able to produce standard ascii files with no special formatting
codes. The ideal would be something like Qedit, but I really need
something that is freeware (it's for a course and I don't want to make
my students buy it).

Thanks,

David

I do what you're looking for using DR-DOS 6.0.  It's diskcopy command
does exactly this (as well as using any available XMS, EMS, or HD
space to avoid the swapping necassary for that other MicroSludge DOS).
It's not menu-driven as you mention, but it's so simple that I can't
imagine what a menu would do in this case.  All I need to do is type:
	"diskcopy x: path\filename" (where "x" is actually "a" or "b")
Lots of other good reasons to use this DOS as well.

Your problem maybe that you aren't aware of the way that Filename Tokens
(or whatever it's called) works.  You must put all wildcards last in the
list.  For example, if you associate an icon to *.txt and then further
down the list associte another icon to readme.txt, the *.txt overrides and
readme.txt is assigned the same icon as *.txt.  If you reverse the order,
and the first line is assigning readme.txt then it will be specifically
assigned an icon and all other *.txt files will be assigned whatever
association is made further down the list.

Hope this helps.

Since there was no public booth at Comdex, it's fair to assume there was
little or no *new* *public* information given out.  Whatever was talked
about and/or shown in the private suite was clearly placed under the terms
of a non-disclosure contract so I don't think that a whole lot will come
out.

As always, the official online place to get official news of GeoWorks
happenings is on America On-Line (AOL).  Of course you can always call or

Current shipping versions of GEOS(tm) don't utilize the math co-processors
(if present).  There's nothing in them that would use them anyways. :-)

You can be certain that math co-processor support will be in a version near
you soon. :-)

You might want to study the math co-processor's interaction with the main
CPU a bit.  A excellent, but very technical, book is Robert Hummel's _The
Processor and Coprocessor_ published by Ziff-Davis.  The gist of the matter
is that you can only do very limited forms of 'multi-tasking' with the math
co-processors (at least on the Intel 80x86 based platforms) due to their
design (at least where it would be worth it to do).

I think in this case you have to pull down the DISK menu in GeoManager and
select "Rescan Drives" - I have to do that a lot after task-swapped Zmodem
transfers, if I leave GeoManager open.  [I rarely have GeoManager open,
though.]

I don't have a coprocessor (despite my computer being a couple CPU generations
old, the coprocessors still cost almost as much as the latest ones) yet...

What functions of GEOS would be (will be in the future) accelerated by a
co-processor?  I'm not really informed on how math-dependent various aspects
of an OS and GUI are.

I wonder if GEOS supports 'changeline' (ie being able to tell if the drive door
has been opened) if it does, then there must be a setting we haven't set
somewhere... If It doesn't then add it to the 'what we hope for in 2.0' list...
Most modern drives support changeline...

Did the 3.5" disk update when it was changed?? if it did then perhaps the 5.25"
didn't have changeline.... Or perhaps it has to be enabled with DRIVER.SYS or
somthing (on the dos side...)

Right!  And, annoyingly, it has the same file name.  I UNZIPped the fonts in
another directory, renamed the archive font BROADWA2.FNT, and thereby avoided
destroying Superb font when I installed the archive fonts in the GEOWORKS
FONT directory.  If you accidentally put it into the FONT subdirectory with
the BROADWAY name, you will have to restore it from backup or Superb font is

Well I wasn't in a hurry to buy one, just hopeful of an easy jump to fast(er)
performance (my PC is one of those with a essentialy non-replacable motherboard
(ie built in ports, video, etc) and someday it will be replaced (when my money
tree grows back... :-)) but till then....)

I know that the 'mulit-tasking' is limited, bur quatro-pro uses it to good
effect to speed up it's recalcs.  I don't know of any other programs that use
it like that. but you could do things like calculate the position of a
co-ordinare for a redraw, whilst the main processor draws the previous
pixel...).  This may all be simply not worth it in terms of performance gain, I
was just intrigued to know what GEOS actually did... 

>>I would hope it at least means that you save memory by not loading it's own

>
>Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean here.

Ok, perhaps I wasn't very clear.... I assume that GEOS *MUST* have to do
non-integer maths at some point, therefore it must have an emulator library. 
as GEOS programs are so small it is a reasonable asumption that fp maths is
provided as a central object that other programs can use.  If one has a co-pro,
this object is either largely redundant, or could be greatly shrunk by calls to
the built in stuff.
( as you said no co-pro support yet, I assume it doesn't do this..)

As math functions are built-in on the 486 (and, we are told, on the
586/pentium/p-5/whatever), support for it would be a boost in the future.)

I finally got the new icons loaded, and I must say good job to whoever put them
together. Unfortunately there seems to be a problem with some of them.
I can't get the ZIPR icon to work, and it seems that the order you list the
icon matchings in GEOS.INI matters and if you put in a bad name, further matches
don't always work.
Has anyone else had problems with them, or is it just me/my system.
