Has anyone seen any .Mod programs that support more than 16 samples?
I've got all this memory to play with...  Even less likely- has anyone
seen any that will support more than four tracks on an STe?

Atari Abaq?  Oh yeah, I remember that piece of junk.
 
The whole idea with that machine was the concept of "processor farming".
 
You could add as many processors you like to get some form of scalable
architecture..(from ATARI, WOW Huh?).
 
Well, it was a cruel joke, and I think only the most die hard of people
ever got one, short of sucking up and kissing Jack's behind.
 
It was an amazing machine though, as far as I could tell.
 
Just another failure thats all.

Subject: DataLink 1.00
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Hello.  DataLink 1.00, a new communications program, has just been
uploaded to atari.archive.umich.edu and will soon be available.  The
filename is currently DATALINK.ZOO.  Following is an excerpt from the
text file included in the DataLink archive.
 
D I S T R I B U T I O N
-----------------------
 
        You may upload this archive anywhere you please, so long as
the information contained within it is not altered in any way.
DataLink *can* be included on User Group disks that are being
sold, but may not be sold for profit.
 
 
D A T A L I N K   F E A T U R E S
---------------------------------
 
        Welcome to the wonderful world of telecommunications!
 
        DataLink is the newest program to hit the market, and
chances are it's just right for you.  Some of the best features
found in commercial telecommunications programs are now at your
fingertips.
 
        An easy to use Group Dialer will let you select a group of
BBS systems to call, and then dial each one in the sequence until
you have connected to every board in the chain.
 
        The normal dialer used by DataLink will dial a BBS system
until you connect, keeping track of how long you have been
dialing, how many "BUSY", "NO CARRIER", and "NO DIALTONE"
messages have occurred, and how many times you have dialed.
 
        Both of DataLink's dialers show the name, the number, a
comment, and the baud rate of the BBS being dialed.  You can
store up to fifty BBS systems, along with the appropriate
information, in each dialing directory.  There is no limit to the
number of dialing directories you can maintain.
 
        DataLink also provides you with a complete set of disk
utilities, including copy, move, delete, rename, print, make
folder, delete folder, touch file, append file, and free disk
space.
 
        Do you ever get tired of typing in your name and password
every time you want to log-on to a BBS system?  Sure you do.
DataLink will allow you to put this annoying problem behind you
forever.  You can enter up to ten strings which DataLink will
search for, and up to ten strings to reply with when the search
strings are found.
 
        DataLink also provides you with a 32K buffer so that you
don't miss important information.  The buffer is saved
automatically when it fills.  Or, if you want to save disk space,
you can set the buffer not to save until you tell it to from
terminal mode.  Using the latter method, the buffer empties when
it fills.  This buffer is also used in disk operations, so it is
saved before every disk operation that uses it.
 
        Can there be more?  Yes!
 
        DataLink provides you with twenty function keys, which let
you send a string with a single keypress.
 
        Have you ever wanted to run a program from inside your
terminal program, but found that the program only gave you a few
spaces to enter a command line, or made it so difficult to use
the execution feature that it wasn't worth it?  DataLink makes
this problem a thing of the past.  With one keypress from
terminal mode, you can run any of ten pre-defined programs.  It's
that simple!
 
        Want more?  So did I, so I kept adding to the program!
 
        From terminal mode, you can look at the date and time, set
the date and time, select full and half duplex, echo mode,
execute a file, load an external editor, and even access
accessories!
 
        DataLink also has a Notepad mode, which lets you make notes
while you are online.  You can save the notes too!
 
        DataLink allows you to use RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF, both, or
neither.
 
        DataLink will even let you select the path where downloads
go!  [Note:  This feature has been removed.  See reason at end of file.]
 
 
S Y S T E M   R E Q U I R E M E N T S
-------------------------------------
 
        DataLink will run from a single sided floppy drive.  It has
been compressed using PFX Pack 1.8 (Thomas Quester) and uses
about 270K of memroy (including the 32K data buffer and the 32K
screen buffer) so it will easily run on a 520ST.  You can un-PFX
Pack DataLink with PFX Pack if you want to.
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The selection of download paths was removed because I changed the way
DataLink handled transfers.  It now allows you to press Alt-G from
terminal mode to call XYZ, and you enter the command line.  This allows
you to use all the protocols, all the options, and even a different
program if you want.  Alt-I calls YMG, for the same reason.  I think that
this method will allow for greater flexabilty, even though you have to
type a little.
 
I mention in the text file included in the archive my address (for
various reasons) and I would be glad to here comments, criticisms, etc.
from anyone who uses it.
 
A lot of people who read comp.sys.atari.st and comp.sys.atari.st.tech
have offered advice on how to utilize certain parts of the ST operating
system, and I would like to thank them now.  They know who they are.

HA!  Toll-free!  :-)  I got a chuckle out of that one.  I wish we were doing
well enough to have a toll-free order line.  Alas, all our money gets spent
on real things like rent and food, and development of more products...

I have an idea.  Call (713)977-6520 between NOON and 6 pm WEEKDAYS and we will
be glad to take your order.
 
Remember, the retail price of Data Diet goes up on December 1, so get your
copy today.  The introductory price is only $59.95.
 
Thanks for asking, BTW.

Subject: Last TeX font question
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Ok, this should be my last annoying TeX question (I hope).
 
Lots of people has responded with good information about TeX fonts.
I need to verify this combination of the information and ask
just one more.
 
The ".tfm" fonts are used by TeX (and maybe Metafont).  These are called
  TeX font metrics.
 
The "pk" fonts are "raster" fonts.  The number associated with them describes
the dots per inch (dpi), so "cmr10\96pk" is a 96dpi format of the computer
modern roman 10 point font.
 
The "flib" facility merely packs in the "pk" files into an archive.  It is
faster and uses less disk space, but is only used by a few types of atari
screen previewer's and dvi printer programs.
 
Please comment on the accuracy of the above.
 
Now is the part I am still confused about.
 
The "flib" archives are store in files like "pk0083", "pk0100", "pk0120", and
other multiplicatiosn of 1.2.  Also, when I loaded the German version of the
24pin fonts, they all were store in directories in the format of
"mag____1.200" and so on.  Now my question is, since these 24pin fonts are
labeled for 360dpi, how do I place them in my font directory.  Should I
put all of these in the form of "cmr10\360pk" and so on.  And since "cmr10"
is repeated in Magstep 1, 1.2, 1.44, 1.72... should I just store the 1
magstep font.  I was thinking of storing these fonts in an "flib" (still
need to learn how to make a flib with the flib.ttp program), because the
"dviatari" fonts are store in the form of "pk0100", "pk0120,..., but that
again brings up the questions of how I am going to let "dviprint" know
that these are 360dpi fonts.
 
Can someone clear up this last question.  Maybe telling me how to create
a "pk" raster font would clear things up.
 
THANKS THANKS THANKS for all of the help so far.  I think my goal now is
provide a document summarizing several peoples experiences installing and
using TeX, LaTeX, and the atari pre-view and printing programs.
(Unfortunately I lost all of my Mail logs when I hit the 300 folder limit
of foldr300.prg, so I am going by memory on much of this.)

I've just received my 3.1 version, and it is very nice.  What you get for the
extra bucks is new manual pages to add/replace in the binder, the new 3.1
disk and and a tutorial disk, which seems very nicely done.  One thing I
should warn you about though, is that Alexander Publishing gave me a lot of
trouble.  They sent me a batch of bad disks and when I complained to them,
they said they would mail out a prepaid postage box so I could have the disks
replaced.  Two weeks later, I called to find out where my box was and was told
that I'd have to deal with C-Lab directly.  So I did, and they took care of it
very quickly and professionally, with the parting comment "We're gonna have
to talk to those guys at Alexander Publishing."
 
3.1's additional features include the ability to export notation as DTP
type files to be used as parts of other documents (.IMG files) plus lots of
other hardware support and display options (page preview, etc.)  It is worth
the money, but you have to get both 3.0 and 3.1 since 3.0 comes with the new
manual and the fonts disk that you'll need.  My suggestion though is to order it
directly from C-Lab instead of those clowns as Alexander.
 
C-Lab's number is: 415-738-1633   That's tech support.  They can answer all of
your 3.1 questions plus how/where to get it etc.  Good luck with it, I'm very
impressed!

Subject: Problems in I/O-Redirection
To: info-atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Hallo!
I have a problem by using I/O-Redirection in a child-process. The
problem is that when I close the disk-file fclose returns the value
-65 (internal GEMDOS-Error), and it consumes filehandels until you
get the "No internal memory..."-message from TOS.
Did I programm anything incorrect? Or is this a TOS-bug?
If it should be a bug then ,maybe, someone knows
a nice TOS-independant workaround or if I made any error then I hope
someone could be so kind and send me a working version of the listing
you can find below.
I use TOS 1.04 (RAINBOW-TOS) and PureC 1.0.
The programm below should redirect any output to the screen to a file
on disk.

DMJ Gif 3.0 should be (I'm praying every night.  I want it THAT BAD!)
released by the end of October or the first few weeks in November.  It will
have batch mode; feed it a bunch of GIFs to convert, and a destination
path, and it will automatically convert 'em.  It's supposed to offer a few
more dithering modes, a totally rewritten interface, and there's an
emphasis on flexibility of options.  Really complete, thorough program.
 
As an aside, if you don't pay your Shareware dues for this program, you
really are the lowest form of life on the planet.  It doesn't take a rocket
scientist to see that Shareware for the ST is being produced in lesser
quantities each year.  By supporting what little quality stuff is being
produced (DMJ Gif is a glowing example), you are ensuring the speedy demise
of the ST.  No computer is useful without continuous software support.

Subject: What are...
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
the fastest SIMMs available for the STe?  80ns?  I've seen SIPPs and
SIMMs, I think, that are as low as 60ns!  Anyone know if these SIMMs will
work at their effective speed on an STe?  By the way, what do SIMM and
SIPP even stand for...?  If I haven't forgotten, then I was never told!
