Text below the bottom of the pane scrolls up with the background. I can't see highlighting on selecting text over the background but functions (e.g., copy) work. When I scroll down, the text that had disappeared off the top now has acquired a gray background. Apparently, there is some kind of redraw problem. Any ideas how to fix? Only OE5 has this problem. winne@sfu.ca ------------------------------ Date: 22 Nov 1999 From: "Denis Birnie" Subject: [*] 500 Cards v2.0.1 500 is a (distant relative of Bridge) card game in which two partnerships play to be first to score 500! 500 Cards allows a single user to partner with a computer player and take on an all computer partnership at a variety of difficulty levels. Version 2 adds optional multi-user play (2-4 users) via Apple's NetSprocket software, fixes a number of bugs and improves the overall interface. 500 Cards should run on almost any Mac, from 68K B/W models still running System 6 to the latest iMacs!

It requires Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 or later for viewing. ------------------------- November 2, 1999, Etna, NH (http://www.atpm.com) - The leaves are turning colors, and so turn is the staff of ATPM - green with envy that is over the Power Macintosh G4 and Apple Cinema Display. Luckily for our readers, issue 5.11 of About This Particular Macintosh isn't as hard to find as the latest hardware from our favorite fruit company. This month, Mac maestro David Ozab continues his insights into the musical side of the Macintosh with the second part of his Midi and the Mac. This issue also sees a bit of a theme - fonts! Publisher Michael Tsai offers a comprehensive overview of fonts on the Mac in his column, Personal Computing Paradigm. Michael also reviews the font utility, Font Agent. David Spencer spins a wicked web of font searching in this month's About This Particular Web Site, and Shareware Editor Bill Lovett presents a plethora of font utilities for your enjoyment. Networking guru Matthew Glidden, of "Three Macs and a Printer," talks about something we all need once and a while - security. His fourth article of the 10-part series is "Dealing with Your Network's Insecurities." We're sure Matthew offers more help than just telling you how to build your network's self-confidence. Robert Paul Leitao returns to close out his tenure this year with Apple, Kids, and Attitude. Robert looks back at some of the predictions he made in ATPM 5.01 regarding Apple's business practices and financial future, and how they turned out. He also discusses the recent Apple flip-flop on shipping G4s, and we look forward to his return in ATPM 6.02. Tom Iovino and Mike Shields tie in some elaborate analogies in their respective columns, Apple Cider, and On A Clear Day... Tom tells us the things he's thankful for in the Mac world, and Mike laments the passing of his French Toast Crunch cereal while bringing us the latest on the Mac in Hollywood. We don't know how they do it, but they manage to pull it off. Scott Feldstein talks about computer buyer types in his column, User Preference, while David Ozab explores the Instrument Interface in a Segments piece. After you check out the staff reviews of the new iBook, Font Agent, Cruise Control, Spy Fox 2, and Auction Action Tracker, make sure you digest our new Update section, where we provide updated information on items we've reviewed in recent issues. ********** ABSTRACT CROPPED ********** [Archived as /info-mac/art/zine/atpm-511-pdf.hqx; 1365 K] ------------------------------ Date: 22 Nov 1999 From: Subject: [*] Alarmclock Alarm Clock 1.1 ¨ 1999 Koingo Software Bug Fixes: - Now only updates the time on each launch, therefore, not accessing hard drive as often. - Live time now in example box.

It allows you to set the volume that the sound must reach to begin recording, and the volume at which it should end recording. It also allows you to set the trigger length for the start and stop values, which helps you to eliminate recording short bursts of sound or ending the recording process during a short pause (such as in normal speach). A start and stop button allow manual recording. In addition, you can create a schedule for up to 50 recordings, specifying the time and date each recording should start and stop, much like a VCR. This makes Audiocorder perfect for automated recording from many sources. Each sound file is stored in AIFF format, a Macintosh standard sound format. The audio can be sampled at 11, 22, 44 kHz, with a sample size of 8 or 16 bits, either monophonic or stereo. The name of each file contains the date and time (down to seconds) the recording began. Audiocorder is used in a wide variety of applications, including digitizing LPs and tapes, recording animals and other natural sounds, and automated recording of radio transmissions.

It is designed to help AD&D DM's (that's Advanced Dungeon and Dragons Dungeon Masters for the uninitiated). It's primarily for character generation, but can be used for other tasks as well. It works by simulating the rolling of six sets of dice. The results are presented, sorted, on the right side of the window. Each set simulates rolling the 'Number' of dice and adding up the 'Count' highest numbers rolled. Each set contains the same type of die and you pick the type using the 'Number of Sides' slider. (Note that bizarre die are supported such as 13-sided.) For example, if 'Number of die' was set to 4, 'Number that count' was set to 3 and 'Number of sides' was set to 6 then the program might roll {2,6,4,3} which would result in 13 = 6 + 4 + 3. Another example, if 'Number of die' was set to 12, 'Number that count' was set to 6 and 'Number of sides' was set to 4 then the program might roll {1,2,2,4,1,3,3,3,1,1,2,4} which would result in 19 = 4 + 4 + 3 + 3+ 3 + 2.

Since the electrical spec for the computer is rated to 240, is all that is necessary a 3-prong adapter? How about the modem? Does anyone know if the internal v.90 modem will work? Do I need only an adapter for the modem port for a different size phone connector? Do I have to replace the modem, or is there a particular modem script required? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 11:56:22 +0100 From: Paolo Bartoli Subject: Teleport 56k thru PBX lines I just bought an external Teleport 56K modem for Macintosh. I'm experiencing some problems with the modem. Time by time the modem hangs up with no reason, and I can't complete file and mail transfer (I use the modem for Internet access). I must say that the problem isn't link to my ISP since I've been using a Teleport 28.8K modem without problems. The connection to the telephone line is thru a PBX with a digital-analog conversion. I think the problem is here. Is it possible to force the modem to work at the maximum speed (33,6 Kbps ?) that doesn't require a normal telephone line - no PBX- via a connection script? What else I can do to achieve the best working condition for the modem, since I can't exclude the PBX to access the telephone line?? Anybody has the same problem with 56K modems and PBX lines? ** Arch.

I am a fan of WordPerfect, and am grateful to Corel for making V 3.5e now available as a free download. There is an updater to v 3.5E on Info-Mac archive. It was designed with the original CD release of 3.5e in mind. I have updated my Mac (G3, OS 8.6) to WP 3.5e, but the newest updater called "WordPerfect 3.5e Updater" V. 4.6.1, which I downloaded from the MIT hyperarchive, won't install. I get the following message: "The default location required for this install could not be found.." While I have partitions on my hard drive, I tried installing WP 3.5e on the system partition and also on a zip drive, but neither would update with the updater. I've rebooted and rebuilt the desktop to no avail. Usenet original discussion about this updater pointed out that the folder and file names had to be the default names. I have not changed these. Has anyone been able to update the free version of WP 3.5e with the updater? TIA. -------------------------------- --Info-Mac-Digest-- End of Info-Mac Digest ******************************
