     I think the answer in both of these situations is yes.  A draw-
 back to using SHAREOPTION 4 is the negative impact on performance
 caused by the rereading of data and sequence set index records for
 each file access request and the requirement that deferred writes
 not be allowed.  Another consequence of SHAREOPTION 4 that you may
 need to be aware of is that CA splits are not possible.

Can someone fill me in on how TIOAL affects a TCT entry defined as
a printer (non-SNA TRMTYPE=3270P)?

The bottom part of a page is ending up on the top of the page and the
top part of the page of output is missing.

Everything works ok when there isn't much output on the page.

   Thank you to everyone who responded to my startup problems.
The error message is gone now; I had to modify the SPOOL parm
in the SIT, as several of you pointed out. I'm still having
the problem of getting from the test signon screen to the VTAM
selection menu. I've discovered now that if I force myself
to be patient enough, I can get from the signon to the VTAM
menu in 10 minutes. If anyone knows why this could be taking
so long, I would appreciate the help. I could get back and
forth quickly yesterday, but then, not everything in my test
region was functioning. I've made so many modifications to fix
the problems, that I don't know what made this one function
stop working properly.
Thanks again for all the help,

 Ken, I would be surprised if the tioal specification is affecting your
 print.  If the Tioal is not big enough, cics justs gets one big enough.

 The data stream itself might lend some insight.  It sounds like the proper
 control characters are not present to 'start' the printer.  You could do an
 abend just prior to writing to the printer to check the output or perhaps
 a buffer dump of the printer would help.

 Hope this helps..Charles

I believe this is related to the SPOOL= parameter of DFHSIT.
You probably have both CICS's with the same 1-character
identifier.  Look up the SIT in the manual, and I think it will answer
your questions.  We made the same error a few months ago.  As
you have observed, it will not prevent CICS from coming up.

Here is a portion of a note that should help getting to Fidonet from systems
that can mail to the Internet.

  - - The original note follows - -

From: kotzo@casbah.acns.nwu.edu (Nick Kotzamanis)
Subject: Re: internet <-> fidonet
Organization: Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois
Date: Mon, 10 Feb 1992 21:31:47 GMT

...
     A) The address of a FidoNode looks like this: 1:105/302.0. Usually
        the 1: and .0 are left off, but they are there by default. (In
        Europe it is 2: and in the Pacific Basin it is 3:.) That
        address can be translated as "Zone 1, Net 105, FidoNode 302,
        Point 0." or p0.f302.n105.z1. Add the FidoNet domain of
        .fidonet.org to the end of that, chop off the p0 (it is again,
        a default) and you have f302.n105.z1.fidonet.org - the "Fully
        Qualified Domain Name" of a FidoNode. Another example is
        1:105/4.3 which would be written as p3.f4.n105.z1.fidonet.org
        (since there is a point number other than 0, we have to specify
        it). Note also that we are only using zone 1.  This will also
        work for zones 2 and 3, just use z2 or z3 as appropriate.


     B) So, lets say you wanted to send mail to Dale Weber at
        1:105/55.0, you would address your letter to
        dale.weber@f55.n105.z1.fidonet.org and you shouldn't have to
        worry about it from there. Note that this address will most
        likely work on the Internet. This address will be automaticly
        interpreted and routed via the correct gateway, so you won't
        have to specify any paths. All you need to know is the FidoNet
        address and logonid of the person you are trying to reach.

My meagre notes and memory produce the following.
John Sturt produced various forms of an edition of the Book of Common Prayer
engraved on silver in 1717 from Golden Lion Court in Aldersdate Street.
He produced a similar engraved edition of Howell's *Orthodox Communicant* from
the same address in 1721.  And he engraved much for
booksellers. He visited Thomas Hearne, who noted in his published diaries
IX:184 under 24 Aug 1726 that Sturt informed him (Hearne) that he was 68 years
old.
Surely there will be much additional information in the Journals of George
Virtue, massively published in I think five volumes by the Walpole Society.
Could the DNB have missed him?  My notes suggest that there were lots of
Sturts, so there may have been several engravers of this name.

Subject:      The passing of Gloria Flaherty

On August 3, Gloria Flaherty, Professor of German, 54, was
found to have suffered a fatal heart attack at her home in Glen
Ellyn, Illinois.  Professor Flaherty received her Ph.D. at The
Johns Hopkins University in 1965 and held positions at
Northwestern University and at Bryn Mawr College, where
she chaired the department of German, before coming to UIC
in 1984.  In 1985-86, she held a fellowship with the UIC
Institute for the Humanities.  She was active in professional
organizations; she frequently organized and participated in
sessions of the Modern Language Association and served as
President of the American Society for Eighteenth-Century
Studies in 1987-88.  Professor Flaherty was a highly productive
and original scholar with broad interests in European
literature, culture, and the arts during the period of the
Enlightenment and Romanticism.  Increasingly, she had come
to focus her research on the irrational undercurrents of
ostensibly rationalistic eighteenth century thought, as
evidenced in her recently published, solidly documented
book SHAMANISM AND THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY
(Princeton University Press).  In describing her teaching
style, students repeatedly used the term "spellbinding."
Professor Flaherty is survived by her mother, Mrs. Jean
Flaherty, in Kearny, New Jersey.

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

Professor Lee B. Jennings writes (September 17, 1992):

To the friends and colleagues of Gloria Flaherty:

I am sure that all who knew her share our desolation at the loss
of our colleague Gloria Flaherty, who passed away suddenly
and quite unexpectedly on August 3, 1992.

Professor Flaherty had virtually completed the manuscript of a
book, to be entitled "Amazons, Women-Men, and the
Enlightenment View of Gender."  We are investigating the
possibility of arranging publication of this work.  Information
about other work she may have submitted for publication will
be appreciated.

Our department has initiated a Gloria Flaherty Memorial Fund
with the University of Illinois Foundation.  Its purpose is to
further scholarship in German literature and culture.  This may
be done through scholarship awards, or through provision of
funds for graduate student conference participation or for the
purchase of reference materials for advanced study.

Checks should be made out to the University of Illinois
Foundation and designated for the Gloria Flaherty Memorial
Fund.  They may be sent to the Department of German.

does anyone know where I might find collections of cheap images in broadside

It is not that I have a dirty mind, but I'm teaching a course on censorship
in the arts and surmise that there must have been such things but that they
probably wore out and disappeared like some of the biblical woodcuts.

I'm no lawyer (thank goodnes) but my understanding of the issue is that
various computer network links are not yet considered 'common carriers'
(like the telephone company, which provides the physical link but which
is not allowed to censor nor is it held liable for what its lines
carry).  Computer networks apparently fall into the category of
"equipment provided by an employer for the purpose of furthering job
performance" (not a real quotation; I'm just distancing myself from that
paraphrase of my own doing).  So your employer may well have the 'right'
to snoop around in your files...

On the other hand, it's simple foolishness to do so if only because it
reeks of Big Brother even if it's done (as I suspect might be the case)
to keep mail server hard disks from filling up with old data.

This is the sort of thing that is often hotly debated on some of the
Usenet news groups.  My impression (repeat: I'm no lawyer) is that this
area is uncharted territory and not until there are some significant
lawsuits about such matters will law be created.

My two cents...

				Introductory Seminar

			Friday 23 October 1992, 10.30am to 4.00pm

The CTI Centre for Textual Studies is part of a national initiative to
increase or enhance the use of computers in higher education. The Centre based
at Oxford University Computing Services covers such subjects as literature,
linguistics, classics, theology, philosophy & logic, theatre arts & drama.

The CTI Centre is holding an introductory seminar to enable lecturers in
higher education institutions to learn about our work. In the morning there
will be a series of talks and discussion sessions about various aspects
of the use of computers in higher education teaching: practical, pedagogic,
political, institutional, etc.  In the afternoon we will demonstrate some of
the hardware, software, and courseware available for higher education teaching.
There will be opportunity for participants to try out some of the packages for
themselves.  No previous knowlede of computing will be assumed and the open day
will be aimed at people unfamiliar with the CTI.

The day's programme includes:

	* An Introduction to Computers in the Humanities
	* Electronic Resources and Electronic Texts
	* Teaching Tools for the Humanities
	* Text Analysis
	* Multimedia in Textual Studies

The cost of the open day will be #35.00 (pounds), #15.00 for staff and
