Subject: Atari for Auction
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Ok, here's the story: I have an Atari ST that I no longer need, so I
will be auctioning it off here. Bids will be taken from 4/8/91 through the
22nd. The highest bid, of course, will win. If the highest bid is a dollar,
than the system is yours for $1!. I will post updates on the bidding
every few days to keep you all informed as to how things are going. By now,
you're saying, all right already, what's the package. Well, here goes:
 
Atari 520ST upgraded to 1Meg RAM
Indus double-sided drive
ComputerEyes color digitizer
Color Monitor
Monochrome Monitor
Mouse
INDUS SCSI hard drive controller (w/software & cable, but no drive)
A double (360K)/Quad (720K) 5 1/4" drive (great for IBM emulation)
A lot of software (mostly games, which I dont feel like listing.)
 
 
So let the bidding begin!

It does indeed. Thanks to Bob and all who responded. My internal floppy
is getting a bit flaky and I was wondering whether to replace it with
a 1.44Mb drive. Now I know --- thanks.

THE programming document for GEM is Tim Oren's "Professional GEM"
article series.  It is available from a variety of sources,
including atari.archive (look for progem.arc or progem.LZH).
 
There is also one excellent German book on GEM programming; send me
mail if you want me to look up the reference.

        I have an a Mega ST2 , a 40Mb hard disk and a Mono monitor, I'm
considering adding a MAC emulation to this setup,  I would be grateful
if somebody (anybody) could let me know what the current capabilities of
these emulators are,  also any known drawbacks vis-a-vis a cheap MAC.

These trackers use a special technique which speeds up the playback quite a
lot. Unfortunately this technique also requires that two copies of each sample
is kept in the memory at all times, eating up the memory of a 520 rather too
quickly.
 
I myself have written a tracker that runs perfectly on 1/2 meg. We've tested it
on a 520ST with TOS 1.2, and it worked straight away. If you want me to I can
upload it to atari-archive.

Hi,
 
After somebody told about the Okami shell, I have seen a lot of
questions where to get it.
Yesterday I found this shell on a local bbs here ("Dutchman").
As it is quite large (200k compressed) I will not post it. As soon as
someone tells me how to MAIL it to atari.archive, I will send it. (I
can not use FTP!)
So if someone is interested, please email.

This is a reply to the message on the Aladin problems.
 
Hello Ralph,
 
I am one of the Aladin users.
I think I have the answer to your problems. I had send my reply to your
address at lucasauto.co.uk twice but both were bounced.
 
Could you please tell me your address again. Preferrably one that I can
reach via BITNET. I still not very good at interpriting the e-mail addresses.
 
My reply is about 2 pages and I don't think that it will be of much interest
to other netters thus I prefer to send it directly to you.

There is one at funic.funet.fi in directory pub/atari/comm (or telecomm).
Someone could get it and put it in atari.archive, and also check my
translation.

Look at forwiss.uni-passau.de (/pub/atari/tex-3.1). There you will find
an implementation of TeX-3.1 for the ST and showdvi, a previewer for
DVI files on various ST screens.

Subject: TOS 2.05 bugfix
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
While testing out my new MEGA STE i discovered a nasty bug in one
of the Xbios routines (I can't understand why no beta-tester has).
 
The XBIOS 5 call  setscreen(logadr,physadr,resolution)
is used to set screen adresses and change screen resolution.
 
However, calling setscreen with -1 as resolution doesn't change
the current resolution.  On monochrome many programs still call
the setscreen function with 2 (monochrome) as resolution and
this works OK on older ST's, BUT on the MEGA STE's TOS 2.05
strange things happend :-(
 
The routine does NOT wait for vertical blank as it i supposed to
but resets the video in the middle of the screen, causing the
picture to wrap around the left edge of the screen in 50% of
the cases.  This does not look good (you get the edge of the
grapic screen in the middle of the monitor screen :-)
 
To get around this problem I have made a VERY small program that
hooks on to the XBIOS 5 if in monochrome, and always sets the
resolution parameter to -1 (no change).  Then things work OK !!
 
I would like an offical comment from Atari Corp on this bug !!!!
How i the world could this pass through the beta-testing ????
In only one day I found 10 programs that goes mad because of it.

Like magic, It's easy to be impressed when you don't know how it's done.
 
If they read a scrolling message for long enough, it's not surprising your
friends have a glazed look in their eye. :-)
When the PC types show me Pakemaker 4 and a good reliable Microsoft Write
I get a glazed look in my eye.

To people who then wonder why only demos ever managed to do those effects.

Nothing. Few of them have a clue about application writing and the only high
level language they ever use is BASIC. (OK :-)

)These demos are great, but..  is anyone involved in creating the demos
)also involved in creating anything useful..?
 
  Actually, many of them are (even if they were not at the time they
made the demo): A few examples could be The Exceptions, The Carebears,
and S.Y.N.C.  (I believe TEX and TCB are working at Thalion GmbH.,
Germany.  SYNC have written Audio Sculpture--we all know what that is,
don't we?)
  Of course, there are even more people NOT working yet, since the vast
majority of these demos are written by youths less than 20 years old.
 
  The simple truth about the scrolltexts is that everybody knows
everybody else in these circles, and the scrolltext is a good way to
boost your ego.  For example, your friends in school might be impressed
if you in the scrolltext claim that you're trading pirated software with
13 famous cracker groups all over the world.  I know, since I've got to
deal with a lot of people like this in the store, even if most of them
have Amigas. And you should see the ads for different groups' HQ BBSs
at Fidonet here in Sweden. "Always the Latest Warez", they claim.
 
Piracy on the ST is getting better here in Sweden I think (less of it,
that is ;-).  On the Amiga things are getting worse, though.  As an
example: When we recived the new game "ELVIRA" from Accolade noone would
buy it.  Everyone had been playing it for months, they said.  Compare
this with the Nintendo market: Whenever a new game is released, we have
*already sold* all the cartridges we expect to get, even before we get
them!  Games won't be a success for a home computer until the CD-ROMs
are real cheap.
 
Hope I didn't tire you,
Daniel

        The VAXVMS directory on SIMTEL contains the following two
files:
 
        "PD1:","<MISC.VAXVMS>","RZSZ9103.README",1,574,7,910329,""
        "PD1:","<MISC.VAXVMS>","RZSZ9103.TLB",1,175104,8,910328,""
 
These appear to be the latest versions of Chuck Forsberg's rz/sz for
VMS (I presume they include rx/sx and rb/sb as well).  The .TLB file
seems to be some sort of VMS library file.  The .README says:
 
 To extract files from rzsz.tlb, issue the following DCL commands:
 
 $ LIB/EXTRACT=EXTRACT_TLB~COM/OUTPUT=EXTRACT_TLB.COM rzsz.tlb
 $ @EXTRACT_TLB rzsz/exit
 
I'm not sure if this will give you working copies of rz and sz, or
source which you'll have to compile yourself.  Probably the latter;
detailed instructions are likely included.  Anyway, fetch the file
from the archives and give it a try.
 
(The ftp address for the SIMTEL archives is wsmr-simtel20.army.mil;
login as "anonymous" and give your full account name as password.  If
you're not familiar with the archive, it's probably a good idea to
read some of the help files in the top directory.  I think there's a
help file specifically pertaining to ftp'ing from a VMS machine; read
it carefully before proceeding, or you'll almost certainly end up
fetching the file in a format you can't use.  To get to the vms
directory you need to type `cd pd1:<misc.vaxvms>'.)
 
Hope this helps, BBB

To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
 
Well, for all of you that asked for it, ZModem for the Vax will soon be
available from atari.archive.  It was uploaded as SZ.EXE and RZ.EXE and they
are both the executable code.  You need to set up a logical symbol like
this (for both files) and put it in your LOGIN.COM file:
 
             $ RZ :== $UTIL:RZ.EXE
                       ~~~~
                         \
                          whatever directory you put it in
 
I would have just told you where to get it, but I can't remember.  Oh, well.
