        I have been using Creator since v2.1.  I purchasd the 3.0 update
at a cost of $80CDN.  The new manual is nice.  Great... it would have been
nice to have had it when I was first starting out.  The new version is fine
except that I bought it for one particular feature - song chain.  This new
feature apparently doesn;t work.  CLAB said 'Oh well'.  Great.  Assholes.
Then v3.1 comes out for $40CDN.  Instead of trusting them, I borrowed the
store copy and sure enough the SOFTLINK feature doesn;t work - it won;t
continue to play the sequencer when you switch partitions - useless.  So,
for $120CDN you get a new manual, but you already know how to use the sequencer
because you spent weeks with the poor translated original manual, and you get
some new bugs.  Damn them.

        There was a Flash 2.0 under development by Antic just before
they dropped all Atari support. The last news I heard on
GEnie was that Lexicore was helping the programmer negotiate
the rights back from Antic and would distribute it wehen it
was done. That was last spring and there's been no news
since.
        I guess either they got to busy with their graphics packages,
which are still not all released, or they didn't reach an agreement
with Antic.

Ok, now for something totally off the subject.
 
I remember reading about using a mega keyboard with an orginal ST. Since
I'm in the process of moving my ST to a PC case, this would help me
instead of adding a cable to my original keyboard and using it bare.
Does anyone have any information they would kindly impart on doing this.
 
And what is the going price for a keyboard?

I don't know about Mac, but PC and Sun 1.44 floppy hardware is the same, or
very similar.  The DOS (and OS/2) ports of GNU "tar" can read Sun (and other
UNIX) floppies just fine.  File systems, of course, are incompatible.  Most
UNIX systems use floppies as if they were small tapes -- no file system at
all (just "tar" directly to the sectors), while DOS systems typically fill
floppies with files.

Subject: Question about SST board from GBS
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
I have never been one to say that Atari's machines are any good pieces of
masterful engineering, far from it.  Most of you know me enough to write
me flame mail on my wise cracks about Atari in general.
 
However, the points you raised about the Mega STE's could be said of
any machine Atari makes.  MEGA's are not immune with thier incredibly cheesy
power supplies, something I am glad to see Atari fixed with thier switching
power supplies in the MEGA STE's.   At least I don't have to worry about adding
a 100+ Megabyte HD and having my power supply literally die from the load.
 
 
I don't know about you, but the MEGA keyboards aren't all that great
component wise either, they are designed with the same screwy under
the river through the woods joystick ports as the 1040ST's.
 
I personally love my keyboard, Dave and it does have a solid feel on
my desk.  The smaller key tops enable you to type much quicker, without
hitting a nearby key.
 
I would also suspect there are some interesting capabilities and products
in the future for the VME bus on Mega STE's also. (Although probably
not available for sale in the US, Europe already has cpu cards, display
cards, etc for people to buy.)
 
The MEGA STE also comes with a bar none onboard host adapter for its internal
HD which blows a lot of equavalent HD setups into the weeds.
 
As for the AdSpeed advantage, I don't know yet, a friend of mine has
recently upgraded his MEGA just as you say, internal HD, plus an AdSpeed
upgrade...as soon as we get together I'll let you know.
 
But all in all, the MEGA STE is a vast upgrade, from the MEGA's.
And considering you get an HD, VME support twice the speed, and a
nice box to fit it all in, its pretty nice.  TWO power cables.  Thats
it.
 
You also get three different serial ports, a LAN port.  4096 colors
standard, stereo sound standard, the capability to add a 1.4 megabyte
drive with a simple chip and drive swap, makes the MEGA STE a very
very strong contender for the new 68K flagship machine.
 
If you look at the price to, for what a MEGA ST/4 use to cost, and what
you can buy a MEGA STE/4 for now, I think its cheaper, but still a bit pricey.
 
I personally can't see with all this going for you, why you would buy
a MEGA 4 and spend mega bucks, and sacrifice features, and then on top
of that buy Mr. Small's SST board.
 
If he is counting on that, which I don't think he is, Mr. Small isn't going
to make as much money as I previously stated.
 
Dave Small is much smarter than that.

        George Richardson, SST designer, said he has started work on
the Mega Ste SST board. It will be a different board, not just an
adapter. GBS was weaiting to see if Mega STe sales warranted the
bother. I guess they do.

As far as I know, the software for the Matrix 19" monochrome monitors
consists of two parts. One of them is GOLIATH, which is a complete
driver with GDOS support. But it is very very slow.
So MATRIX added another driver named DAVI, which is capable to support
some screen accellerators like Turbo ST and Quick ST II. We tried
to install NVDI in several ways, but it broke every time. DAVI is written
by some guys from France and if you know of TURBODOS, you may understand
why this can't work. OK, this is another prejudice like "GFA programs don't
make reliable redraw".
 
On the ATARI Messe in Duesseldorf we asked at Matrix, if they will deliver
a new version of their drivers to run NVDI, but they said "Monochrome is
out of time" and they probably will not support tose screens in the
future.
 
What about Arnd Beissner's PROTAR screen driver, does he support all
screen accelerators or is it fast enough without them. I never saw
an article comparing the quickness of these graphic cards.

Then they should realize, that NVDI 2.0 speeds up the colour display as well !
Atari should ask for a license for new TOS-versions (just dreaming :-)

The perfect one, always reliable with a nice shell. speedy and makes the
best output. It's shareware. Since Metafont is not ported by Stefan Lindner
himself and Lutz Birkhan hasn't ported the version 2.9 to the ST, you have
to run SL's TeX 3.1 combined with old Metafont 1.7

Since Frank Ridderbusch is inside the GNU-project, this could be a
port using GNU C. I've never heard of this one.
 
>bammi-TeX:
 
Should also be ported using GNU.
 
>cs-tex:
 
Christoph Strunk has ported full TeX 3.1 and Metafont 2.9 using Laser C
(As I remember). It's a complete set with a small but useful installation-
program. CS has made some arbitrary modifications to the TeX macros, so
that the output may look a bit different from original versions, but it's
handy ( as a 5 MB systems can be) and complete.

I know of an Amiga version of TeX named PasTeX, this should be that one.

Does nayone know where/how I can get a copy of UUencode.  I've managed to
rx a UUencode'd file from atari.archive, but cannot do anything with it?
 
Everyone I've asked within the UK has never heard of UUencode.  To be honest,
nor had I until Monday this week!

   [Th.Quester] not for zoo. Write to Gereon Steffens (gs@k2.maus.de), he did
   a fine TC port of Zoo 2.1 (including ARGV), and most people I know now
   use HIS version.
 
What's wrong about the version that had been ported to comp.binaries.atari.st ?
Is there any difference (from the user's POV) between Gereon's and the
Usenet version ?
