The source is written in GFA-Basic and saved as ASCII (SAVEA-Option).
There are two possible options used in GFA-Basic:
1) SAVE:  the source is saved in a tokenised form, which is shorter
          than the pure ASCII-source. Loading is faster too.
          (load with LOAD-option)
2) SAVEA: ASCII-source. Used to save blocks and procedures.
          (load with MERGE-option)
 
In Germany, GFA-Basic is distributed in three different versions:
GFA-Basic 2.02 Development-Kit (about 50.- DM):
    Old version (uses .LST and .BAS as extension). No GEM-functions.
 
GFA-Basic 3.0 Development-Kit  (about 200.- DM)
    GEM-functions included, Turbo C-functions supported (see manual).
 
GFA_Basic 3.5 Development-Kit  (about 300.- DM)
    Like version 3.0 with additional matrix-functions and features.
 
I don't know exactly, but I think that there's a distributor for
GFA-Basic in the USA (see magazines like Antic or STart).

Yes, Atari does well in germany but although it still has the games image here.
If you ask someone who's no real freak he will propably tell you that they're
producing homecomputers. If you'd know Atari's commercials you knew why.
I can't imagine that's even worse somewhere else ...

Again one of these boring comparisons with amiga's 500. Maybe when it
goes for playing games the amiga is better. But when you experiment
with minix, use the st as a terminal (there are great terminal
emulation programs) or other serious things you don't need the extra
features of the Amiga 500, which only are in the way and slow down the
68000.

        In what way do the chips get in the way. If you are using an amiga
for these simple things then the custom wont be stealing cycles.  The only
thing i can imagine you are thinking of is the fact that the amigas architecture
means that the 68000 can only do memory access on even cycles - stretching
very few instructions by one cycle.
 
        The advantage the st has is 8MHz vs 7.1509MHz, along with a lot
simpler operating system and easier integration into a pc world (your dos
format disks).

I am sure I have mentioned this before-- The TT does not have a 16MHz bus.
(nor does it have a 32MHZ bus, either) The 68030 in the TT are reading from
TT-Fastram in the burst-modus, which is as fast as it can be. The SCSI
 controller
writes to memory with 1 or 2 (or more..) waitstates, but this is not important.
 The
main thing is that the controller is capable to cope with even the fastest
 diskdrives.

This is not correct -- the memory subsystem of the TT only runs at 16MHz.
The chips all run at 32MHz, but memory is still half the speed. TT RAM is
faster because you don't have any contention with the video shifter (which
requires bus access to ST RAM to generate the video display).
 
However, since the 68030 burst-fills its caches, you do minimise the impact
of the slower memory.
 
As to the slowness of the paging -- you can fix this by buying more memory.
I know someone who uses a TT under Unix every day as his personal X
workstation and he suggests that 8MB RAM is a minimum configuration.

I have dbman for years. While it is not as elegant as dbaseIII plus as
far as ASSIST, help and form creation are concerned, it does work well
and fast. You can use it in dbman or dbase compatible file mode; the
former is claimed to be faster. I have done a number of "dbase" contracts
on my ST using dbman and the customers have all been happy with the
results. dbman only uses 640x400 pixels on my 1280x960 TTM195.
 
Now if you want a database that is pure fun to use as well as capable
try Superbase Professional (not sure if it is still on the market). You
can mix text and graphics for a great database!!!

Nice list, 'cept that the original ST's had TV Modulators in them.  They went
out with the ST-F's, which were the next version after the original ST came
out.

You could try setting the unixmode environment variable, then re-extract
(most zoo's are unixmode aware) and redump.  You're shell doesn't need
to be unixmode aware to run unixmode programs.  Lets see, a good setting
for what you want to do would be
 
/.,rCLAb
 
(replace C with whatever disk you have this stuff on).
(you may not need L, but I don't know if A will work without it)
 
Better yet, get the unixmode bash and my port of tons of gnu utilities
(futils_jgj or something like that) and pretend you have a unix box.

So can anyone improve on this?  Or is there a C program to do this?
 
Thanks to all,

To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Hi there,
 
'Wizard of Wor' is nearly complete.
I'm planning to release a public domain version without sound and wizard, but
everything else. A Shareware-version with sound and wizard will follow if the
response is big enough.
 
Anybody interested in 'Wizard of Wor' ? Or have I spent my time for a thing
nobody wants to have ?
 
f.

I have here an ZIP for the ST, it an Beta Version which has Problems if you
pack too many Files into the Archiv but it works ,if you know this, quite well
! I can't post it into comp.sys.atari.st.binary ro an other Area, because i'am
not connected, but i think it should be avaible
there:STZIP09.LZH
The Programm is from an France Guy which has debuged the Packets from PKZIP and
has coded the Programm to create such Packets.
 
Bye,Bernd.
