This looks like a portion of a submission, so forgive if I missed something.
I had a similar problem with my 1040 ST (1 meg) a couple years ago.  I found
out the problem went away when I moved to a house with more dependable
power and I got a better surge protector.  Did you know that on the STs the
sound chip is connected to the peripheral processor?  I don't recall the
details but I remember being suprised that programs "use" the sound chip
without generating any noise.

You are waiting for the left mouse button to be UP, this probably already the
case.  Change this into:
 
        int current_button_state;
        ...
        vq_mouse(0,&current_button_state,&junk,&junk);
        evnt_multi(MU_TIMER|MU_KEYBD|M_BUTTON,
                MB_CLICKS, MB_MASK, current_button_state,
                0,0,0,0,0,
                0,0,0,0,0,
                &junk,
                loword(delay),hiword(delay),
                &junk,&junk,
                &junk,&junk,
                &junk,
                &junk);
 
where MB_CLICKS and MB_MASK are defined as:
 
#define MB_MASK 3       /* both buttons are relevant */
#define NOT 0x100       /* wait until state != current state */
#define MB_CLICKS 1|NOT /* once is enough */
 
or if you trust that both buttons are up when you call evnt_multi:
 
        evnt_multi(MU_TIMER|MU_KEYBD|M_BUTTON,
                1,1,1,
                ...
 
It helps, i tried it yesterday. :-)

Subject: Hybrid Arts Sequencers?
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Has anybody used the Hybrid Arts "EditTrack II" or newer "EditTrack
Gold" sequencers?  I'm thinking of replacing my obsolete sequencer
with something a little newer, and I'm attracted to Hybrid Arts
because I own their EZ-Score software.  My needs are fairly basic, I'm
looking for something that has:
 
   o Graphical sequence/track editing
   o "Song" editing by measures or sequences
   o User-definable quantization
   o Import/Export standard MIDI files
   o Runs on 1040ST (1M RAM) with color monitor
 
I'm also considering Dr. T's Tiger Cub software, but it doesn't seem
to have any kind of song editing, and 12 tracks seems a bit limiting.
 
Please post if you have any comments on the Hybrid Arts packages or
any other suggestions.

There is one German PD program called TeXGRAPH, which is a drawing
program primarily intended for making LaTeX - picture - environments,
either the original ones or with epic.sty.  It can also output
drawings as MetaFont - files.
 
It can import a couple of formats, including HPGL; I'm not sure about
GEM files.
 
The author made some conditions about distribution; I'll check them
and, if possible, I'll post it or upload it to atari.archive.
Note, however, that the docs are completely in German.

Subject: New Version of HacMan II Available
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Since the hacman2.lzh file on atari.archive.umich.edu apparently got munged
recently, I've uploaded the latest version.  It's now an ARC file, to make
those of you who hate LHarc happy.  :-)
 
In any case, this version (1.14) fixes a bug in the previous version
which would crash the game for no obvious reason.  (Quite rare, but a
real bummer.)  Those of you who are fortunate enough to have
GEnie/Compuserve/etc. accounts, please upload this new version to the
online services.  I would greatly appreciate it, since there seem to be
mostly older versions of the program out there and people are still
occasionally reporting problems that I've fixed already.
 
NOTE: If you're wondering whether the version YOU have is the fixed
one, it's not.  This is the first time I've released the corrected
one.  Find it in atari/games/hacman2.arc in the next few days.

Bob,
 
   Thanx for your reply, but I found out what the problem was.  It
seems that prospero C wanted the date set.  It did not like that fact
that on bootup my date is 00-00-128 00:00:00, so I got a program to
set my date automagically.  I have had no problems though using it
with Quick ST 2.10?  It works again...

To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
On the topic of monochrome monitor fading, here's some more information,
received from KREYMER@FNAL.FNAL.GOV:
 
"I have seen this problem on many monochrome monitors over the last couple
 of years. Thank you for the solution to an old, nagging problem !
 I have installed the suggested zener diodes on one of my monitors, and
 the problem has vanished as advertised.  Inspired by this success, I
 tried a similar, simpler solution. I have installed a simple 33 kilohm
 resistor between B2 and ground. It draws just 2 milliamps, which is enough
 to keep the voltage between 68 and 72 volts. The screen is just as stable
 as with the zeners, and 33K resistors are a lot easier to find then 72 V
 zeners.  Any value from 33K to 100K seems to do the job."

SUN-OS V4.1.1 supports reading, writing and formatting 760K DOS/ST
diskettes directly.
 
To format use:
 
fdformat -l -d
 
To use put:
 
/dev/fd0 /pcfs pcfs rw,noauto 0 0
 
into /etc/fstab (usually there already)
 
Then mount with:
 
mount /pcfs
 
Then regular UNIX commands (ls cp mv etc.) will work with the floppy.
 
Problem:
 
You have to su root to do the mount /pcfs.

I'm not sure if this is an unusual or illegal request - if it is
just  ignore it, I DON'T want to start a long  discussion  about
software  copyright.
 
I bought an STE a few months back, and I didn't receive a floppy
disk with it - or a book.  Yes, I bought  it from a dealer,  but
it was trade-in  arrangement,  and he wouldn't give me the book,
or the disk.  I was in a hurry, and I never figured I would need
either, as I have never used the book or the disk that came with
my original 1040ST.  To get to the point..
 
Now, I am worried I am missing  out on  something.  Can  someone
send me an archive of the files supplied with the STE - or point
to to an ftp site that has them?  Any  useful  information  from
the manual would also be appreciated.
 
thanks,

     You may feel skeptical, but as the designer of the two machines
announced, I can tell you that "TOS ... with handwritting recognition" is
FACT, not conjecture. The HCR code will be in the ROMs (and was, in the Demo
at CeBIT), and tied into the operating system and desktop such that a gesture
in the Menu Bar area will bring up a window (as invisibly to existing
applications as possible) into which Hand-written characters are drawn. As you
write, the characters are converted to ASCII; when you are satisfied, the
characters are sent (via the Keyboard input stream) to the application. This
way, _*existing*_ applications will have HCR capabilitites.
 
     The "hooks" to call the HCR system will be available to software
developers, so they may call it directly, to recognize ASCII characters,
special character sets, or even gestures. This will be part of the standard
documentation. In case you're curious, the software is a neural-net
simulation.
 
                                                TRH
 
[ Incidently, "OCR" is "Optical Character Recognition" and "HCR" is
"Handwritten Character Recognition"; the former uses the Bit-Map image; the
latter uses the "pen-stroke" information directly.]

        That's true ! not even in finland.... but that's probably why
        it seems that the most dedicated usergroups, with GNOLEGEABLE
        users have formed around st/TT -here (ST-club with it's PD-
        librarys, monthly diskmagazine, developers meetings etc...)
        I think the st/TT being not the "safest" choice, it has dropped
        out many teenager kids who mostly play games (and used to use c64
        and use amiga now) and PC/MAC type of users.... ST/TT is more
        distinctive type of thing... this flaming about amiga/st/TT being
        better or not is like arquing between cars: wether SAABs(st/tt)
        are better or worst than VOLVOs(amiga) but they both are better
        than LADAs(russian car and (PC/at/386/486) and are in totally dif-

        again... this takes a little brains and coordination, but with that
        the monitor sits nicely on top of the central unit (why would you like
        to open covers and sit it on top of the cpu... for keeping it warm ??)
        -> I imagine that would be a little hard...but then..... ;-) ;-)
 
        I have a feelin the person also wonders about the "pen holder" in front
        of the machine... and what to do with it...?

        What's that problem, while I'm not aware of...?

What an objective comparison!
Do LADAs run twice as fast as VOLVOS?
Do LADAs provide twice the resolution and 16 times the colors of VOLVOS?
Do LADAs go to may places at once while VOLVOs only to one (Multitusking).
Do LADAs use technology that VOLVOS will use 3 years later at best?
Do LADAs go to more places that VOLVOs can (software)?
 
Did you say no?
Well then maybe my 486 is the VOLVO and your TT is the LADA.
Funny thing is we both payed about the same. :-)
Jeez... Your LADA Dealers must be really good!

Subject: Undo key on Uniterm
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
I was using a new terminal program today, and I noticed that the Undo key
sent some kind of character to the DecServer over the phone that allowed me
to run multiple sessions.  Now, on Uniterm the Undo key is bound to the
escape sequence.  I have tried to see if the macros would take a undo, but
it does not seem to work.  Anyone have any ideas how I can get to this
character?  I have tried just about every control combination.

Is there any settings in VanTerm to set up for vt100 style emulation?  I
was having a real hard time getting it to work for logging in.  Also, where
do I get the shadow package?
