At least it's more important than Sun. :-) I'm afraid the benchmark measures total volume of intenet news... how is that related to "importance"? It's interesting that NeXTSTEP, with an installed base in the 50-70 thousand range has more than half as much traffic as Windows, with an installed base in the (guesstimates anyone? 20 million?) range.

At what resolution? Everything I've read (after disecting performance results, but no actual board in front of me), shows that at high resolutions, the Ultra Pro outperforms most everything. At lower resolutions (to 800x600), some boards can zip along up to 2x faster. P.S.

With that, I'm hoping they do away with EISA and ISA and build in SCSI-2. Bus arbitration avail with PCI should result in better throughput with multiple local-bus boards. Also there is BIOS that now supports SCSI, but only for the PCI bus and there's apparently a hot new SCSI-2 chip, but again, funded partially by Intel and hence only for the PCI bus. P.S. Does anyone know if I can (currently) get a motherboard like this - with no useless ISA Bus, no expensive EISA Bus, but those savings applied to a PCI Bus, with built-in SCSI and a minimal number of PCI slots (say 4 - who needs 8 slots, when most devices can be chained to the SCSI controller).

It's a two-dimensional package and overall easy and intuitive to use. It is a general-purpose program and there are a few features that I'm looking for (and not finding) to design the physical layout of a circuit board. For one, it doesn't seem to have a function for filling in solid a circle or square (as in solder pads). Secondly, I don't know how to specify line widths, except for the limited preset widths. And thirdly, I'd like to give my circuit traces rounded corners but don't see an easy way to do it, other than specifying a radius for each corner (a hassle). Don't get me wrong, overall the package is great. Compared to Generic CADD....well, there's no comparison. I like being able to browse through the building block files and see a miniature picture of the contents of each file, for instance. Just thought there might be someone out ther who knows a trick to doing these things. Thanks in advance for the info. Rich

I would suggest that the other board manufacturers have huge advertising bugets with the Mag and this influences heavily on their conclusions. Wittness their attack on ATI for keeping up on the leading edge with their development of software drivers. If one is so concerned with stability then they can keep a few versions back, but I for one would like to use the best one I can get, if it works for my environment. They attack them for bit caching which results in ***real*** speed improvments, but because many other manufacturers can't create proper bit caching drivers (probably because of poorly designed hardware - from a software engineers point of view) and because their own testing crew can't dream-up generic enough tests to foil truely pathetic attempts at bit caching, they criticise it. They have constantly recommended products (flying colors) which my ex-employer subsequently brought in to test, only to have the product fail on the first real world sample data the product was given. For more evidence of how their testing is influenced by budgets, look at their latest review of workstations running UNIX. They tested these various platforms (all running state of the art versions of UNIX) against a stale old version 3.0 of SCO UNIX on Intel architecture. I hope I don't sound overly critical of PC Mag, but I think we need someone with the hardware to give us the real breakdown of how the boards run under NS/I. My guess is that when ATI has their own tuned driver for NS/I, it'l smoke. Dennis dmanke@sanjuan.uvic.ca

My understanding is that Phillips supplies to Apple (and maybe Kodak, I'm not sure, but I think I read it in some english mag), wich installs the SCSI interface on it (or gets Phillips to install it, whatever...).

As long as only one person is using either, you're legal. No two persons can use either at the same time. Since you need User to run dev, so that's rather pointless. You coulnd't have 1 _HUGE_ server with 10 netboot client running off of it... (BTW anybody know if you can have an Intel machine be a motorola netboot server? Since the user is not fat, I would guess not, but then maybe just changing "clients/XXX"'s content to be real moto stuff might work.) > Is it a question of how many *people* are using a machine at a time? Yes. Buy as many licences as you need (right now, I guess full price for less than a zillions licences 8^( ), and put only one copy of the dev on your net for everyone to use. That's the legal way.

Thanks to Jim Beauchamp <beaucham@uxh.cso.uiuc.edu> and David Jaffe <david@jaffe.com> for their responses. Also, thanks to Len Manzara, our local NeXT music expert, for his help. There were no conflicting reports; all the answers more or less supported each other. The solution to producing realistic music is _not_ to record it and play it back. It's too troublesome and difficult and can result in funny problems, such as waves getting cut in half and whatnot. Realistic music is, however, very possible. I'm sure all of you have heard demo score files, and Ensemble seems to be the definitive place to play with creating instruments. The music can be generated to very precise amounts of time, restricted by the sampling rate and what David Jaffe calls "envelope break-points times." He estimates 0.0003 second response time, more than enough for my purposes. How did the MusicKit measure up to MIDI. Everyone I talked to claims the MusicKit will give equal if not better control of the sound parameters than MIDI will as well as more flexibility. The MusicKit's one failing point was that there was not a well-made well-packaged set of realistic sample instruments. Following suggestions and the MusicKit manual, the best I could find were some sample score files from which I gleaned the following instrument parameters: clarinet, cello, bell, wind, flute, drum, bass, kalimba, conga, and gong. Unfortunately, to my (admittedly untrained) ear, many did not sound much like the instrument they were named after. This was an important requirement that MIDI was able to meet, and certainly not one I expected the MusicKit to fail. Including good sample instruments in the MusicKit seemed like an obvious thing to do. So, for those of you who are willing to go to great lengths for great music, it seems the MusicKit beats out all but the high-end MIDI boxes. For those of you looking to create simple, but realistic music, the MIDI box seems to provide what you need more easily. Thanks once again for all your help. - David Marwood - marwood@cpsc.ucalgary.ca

I am thinking of putting together a system to run NEXTSTEP, but I would rather buy an S3 928 based video card than an S3 805 card. As I was wondering about PC Expo the other day, an S3 928 card vendor assured me that the 928 chipset was entirely compatible with the 805. He said I should be able to run the current version of NEXTSTEP (3.1) with the S3 928. Is that true? Or will I have to wait for NEXTSTEP 3.2?

In a recent study it was found that the genetic makeup of NEXTSTEP users is slightly different than that of "ordinary" people. Using sophisticated genetic analysis software reveals that, in addition to DNA and RNA, NEXTSTEP users have a chemical component of their genetic makeup dubbed VNA, for VerboNucleic Acid. This appears to be the root cause of the rampant fanaticism and prolific postings of NEXTSTEP advocates. No cure has as yet been found, but studies continue. > -- > Blake W.

Look, what they give you is the right "for one person to use it"/"to use it on one machine" (I don't have NS FIP on front of me, so I can't check). Both mean basically the same thing. Copying it over the net is the same as copying with a CD-Rom drive. If you feel you can buy NS FIP once and install it from the CD-Rom on more than one machine, you will probably feel you can run a number of machines over the net with a single licence. In that case, go ahead. You're no worse doing that than installing it with the CD-Rom! BTW The confusion may stem from the fact that we didn't need to care about licences with black hardware, except for newer versions of NS (But then NeXT sold right-to-use licences for 3.0). Your machine came bundled with the right to use of the version shipping at the time of purchase, and later even with the code (when they started shipping CDs). This is a different ball game. Threat NS FIP just like any piece of software, legally speaking.

NeXT DID have a booth across town at the Securities Industry Association trade show in New York during the same days (June 28-30). Considering that NeXT is NOT pursuing the mass market for now, and IS committing most of its marketing resources to financial services, this was the right choice. I was at the booth (I know, it seems like that's all I do these days), and they got a good reception. At PC Expo, they would have been one among hundreds, and to what end? They did everything at the SIA show that you're talking about, but to the specific audience they want to attract. I'd call that smart marketing. -- Gregory H.

When I boot from the instllation disk, my cdrom drive is not found. I suspect the problem comes from the fact the SCSI bus is reset, since I had that problem under DOS. Under DOS, the solution was to insert a No Reset flag in the CDROM driver. However I don't know what to do in this case. Has anyone succeded in installing NEXTSTEP with a Toshiba CDROM? Or is it not compatible? I would really appreciate some help with this.

As was expected the main point was lack of marketing/advertizing. Most points are minor and one expects there to be problems with all products. Most people where really happy with NeXTSTEP and most people think that the move to software was a good one. Why did I do this summary, especially when it has all been said before? In Australia I hope that NeXT does not make the same mistakes twice. NeXT seems to be poised to sell directly here in Australia. Questions like whether it will offer any sort of academic support/offers are crucial to many academics who would like to use NeXTSTEP themselves. Like many who have beleived in NeXT (because of the MANY things they have done RIGHT!!!!) I have been tormented with not being able to share my knowledge with others (except for the general overseas community). Hopefully here in Australia we can help NeXT find a place especially in the academic environment. Thank you to all the people who responded. I am not including contributors names, but if anyone has a need to ask further I shall be glad to pass on a message. Aris. _______________________________________________________________________________ - weak support for non-netinfo-domaines - no reaction to error-reports (bug reports in NS 2.1 have not been recified in 3.0) - lack of function keys (does this change on the Intel keyboards?) - conflict on international versions with choice of function keys and special keys @,|,[,],{,},\ - better X-Windows (non-third party) support - faster and better response to bug reports - the non-US markets have to be given better attention _______________________________________________________________________________ - more advertising, printed and broadcasted _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXT is too afraid of the mainstream - NeXT should advertise in PC magazines - are too afraid of seeking broader acceptance _______________________________________________________________________________ - inadeqate support for C++ _______________________________________________________________________________ - could write a tome on what NeXT is doing wrong :-) _______________________________________________________________________________ - can't swap to a partition, must be a file - doesn't provide full support for things like shadow password files - the Cube keyboard. All the important Unix keys are on the keypad! - As far as marketing, I have to ask: What marketing? _______________________________________________________________________________ - do not have a market focus - they do not respond in positive ways to people external to NeXT - better service and customer orientation - NeXT deal with people outside as though they do not know what they are doing - you can send NeXT email, and they may never respond - communicating with NeXT is like talking to a Black Hole - NeXT is the best machine I have ever worked on, and one of the most worthless companies I have ever seen - If NeXT Inc. was a resturant, with the service they have given, they would certainly have received no tip and I probably would have walked out. The fact that they have a 5 star chef, and the best food in town does not give anyone the right to be snooty and not respect me as a customer. _______________________________________________________________________________ - charging for developer support _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXT should bundle Posix and the C compiler with the user version of NeXTstep. NeXT should not try to imitate Sun. _______________________________________________________________________________ - the product-placement is poor - the price is too high - Steve Jobs is a poor company leader - speaking for Germany, NeXT was not too friendly to its distributors .The distributors had to pay prior to delivery, got no information or marketing advice, only small margins, very restrictive contracts. In fact the whole marketing was left to the initiative of the distributors. - there is no reaonable break-in on market. They can not charge $800 or whatever for an unknown PC OS. They should dump some 10.000 copies for $100 (only one for each person), keep track of their adresses and let cook it hot. With rise of new applications and the news of successful projects with mission critical applications they may go to $1000 and sell a million. For $1000 is nothing for a company searching for a solution but too much for a student who is just curious. - still there are no ads in computer magazines. _______________________________________________________________________________ - give it a rest and save us from more of this continued nonsense (aris: this was a message to me from a justifiable bored/fed up with NeXT programmer). _______________________________________________________________________________ - Make it easier to buy NeXTStep/I - is it possible to get a diskette from NeXT (free) that would check your system and tell you whether or not NS/I will run on your machine? MS has such a diskette for Windows 3.1. - target the student population - corporate users will almost _always_ choose the most popular ("established" if you like) OS and not the "best" one - For student users, make the pot sweeter..include (at a nominal cost) SoftPC, Improv, WordPerfect and Mathematica. This need be done only for a short time, say a year, till demand catches on. I am sure these software companies could be convinced. Reason: Compare the price: a reasonable NS/installed machine costs upwards of $5K, while you can get a reasonable OS/2 running machine (or Windows, or DOS) _with_ all the software for under $3K. Sure, you get a faster machine, and a great operating system for that extra $2K, but many, including myself, are hesitant. - Finally, like IBM is doing with OS/2 (and MS with Windows) is it possible for NeXT to run "leaner" operating systems for "low end" machines? (This may be difficult, but you would get many more student users.) _______________________________________________________________________________ - Advertising, Advertising, Advertising - offer very attractive deals (with Mathematica and other standard programs, word-processing, spreadsheets) to students _______________________________________________________________________________ - frequent demos in schools will create awarenes in NeXT. - NeXT should encourage third party software developers _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXT has already heard from us.... and has choosen to ignore us. - NeXT officials... are nothing less than arrogant in their response to user critisisms - some of the technically brilliant people at NeXT ought to take a course or something in tactful ethics, and if that doesn't work, hide them from the public! _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXT is perfect, NeXTSTEP is perfect, Steve is perfect. - Any thought about so called errors is a sin against the new religion, the NeXT God. - I don't know what NeXT has done wrong but I know what they do right: shoot themselves in their own feet. _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXT does not appreciate somebody telling it what it is doing wrong - unless it is a bug report _______________________________________________________________________________ - I don't think NeXT are doing anything wrong at all - If NeXT has done anything wrong, it is rushing out NS3.1 for Intel. 3.1 has virtually no device drivers, and the so-called "drivers update" is now dragging into August. I think they could have waited an extra two months to release a slightly more complete product. - they need to write some drivers which will convert postscript to HP PCL - it is important that NeXT talks to as many peripherals as possible - Get the drivers update CD-ROM out *SOONER* than later, or ship 3.2 with SoftPC bundled in September as promised. - provide drivers for non-postscript printers - create an "8-bit color" mode. This will open up NEXTSTEP to virtually thousands of 1MB video cards running 1024x768 with 256 colors. Who uses 65,000 colors anyway? - port, port, port. Get NS onto as many RISC platforms as possible. - partnerships. Need I say more? - marketing and channels. Pull your finger out NeXT, you have the best product, but the worst marketing. Cute videos are not going to reach the mass market. Also, Steve Jobs asking all the user groups to "ask their local computer store to stock NEXTSTEP" is a lame-duck approach, especially since 3.1 is so incomplete. _______________________________________________________________________________ - source code control well integrated with the NeXT tools. This is necessary, if not only a single person is developing, but a team. Many other people have integrated that (HP, Sun, IBM) in their tools. This piece is missing. CVS would be a nice way to go. - good support for heterogeneous projects. Like 1 part dsp assembly, 1 part c++, 1 part objective-c. The makefiles don't support that nicely and it should be possible to just hack a more general set of Makefiles and make subconfigurations more encapsulated, so I don't have to care about building libraries by hand any more. Something like an automatic build for a library would be very nice indeed (without handcoding everything like in the old unix days in the makes). Also the documentation of used flags/variables is lacking. Things like the OTHER_... are not completely done. The .preamble and .postamble are not enough. This will be of increasing concern with a more heterogeneous environment coming up for the NeXT software on all the different architectures! _______________________________________________________________________________ - priced their software too high, or they've failed to explain why it is worth so much, especially to an end-user _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXT has had no interest in setting up in Australia for most of the time it has been in operation - NeXT missed out badly by not getting a toehold in Australia in 1988 - They completly underestimated the level of support that was needed to sell to universities. They assumed it would be massive when in fact it is quite small. If you don't believe me ask Sun. They were selling machines in Australia with a staff of two in most capital cities until the cash flow paid for the expansion and now Sun Australia has better market penetration into business sales that Sun USA - NeXT should not compound the mistake by now jumping straight into the commercial deep end selling developers kits (NeXTSTEP) for $6,000 and run times for $1600 around universities. I mean they should almost be GIVING it away to uni's. Turning out students year in year out that have used your product, know all about it and can be up and running day one for a future employer is priceless selling of your product (NeXTSTEP). The investment in seeding the university market worked well for DEC, worked well for sun and micosoft and apple are both in as far as they can go. It is ironic that Steve's Jobs own strategy in the states was exactly what I am proposing but for some reason in Australia they are not going to bother. IMHO it is a mistake that they don't have time to make. With regards to Cannon and DataGeneral they have not been big in uni's and unless they do an IBM and re-invent themselves I don't see them helping NeXTSTEP much at all. Next should be setting themselves up in Australia just like Microsoft, Apple and Sun. Corporate culture is very important, NeXT has a lot of goodwill which I doubt will filter through when customers are dealing with the likes of Canon and DG. _______________________________________________________________________________ - radically expand distribution channels. Ingram/Micro is a good start, but I wanna see shrinkwrap NS/I in more PC/Mac software stores. Reason: A lot of users would go with NS if they could try before they buy. Unless they can "test-drive" a product in-store alongside other wares (such as OS/2), they'll likely go the cheap, crappy route. NS is addictive. Get people hooked by letting them use it. - NS/I User is an absolute bargain at $US795, and I realize that NeXT's licensing fees for PostScript, RenderMan, Pantone, etc. are high--but, if at all possible, lower the bar as much as possible. The cheaper, the better. - reestablish ties with Universities. In Calgary, where I live, the U of C's Microstore has NO copies of NEXTSTEP, nor are they inclined to order any. They're kinda pissed off at NeXT for spontaneously pulling the plug on hardware, and see no reason to promote NS/I in the future. NeXT still needs higher-ed. Action is critical. _______________________________________________________________________________ - NeXTSTEP 3.1 should be available to Australian academic institutions and students in the same manner as found in the US. I am sure that this will happen. - A combined bundle of Mathematica with the Intel version of NeXTSTEP would be good. Take a moment to notice that departments will often buy a machine in order to run a particular program, and I have seen this done with Mathematica. Some definite X-Windows package deal would be good, to satisfy the standards committees. - Send some advertizing to universities directly. Prove to people that NeXT has the solution to their problems.

Could someone please fill me in on the fix? Is this the > cause of my problem? Having used CVS on NS 3.0 machines on quite a few large projects, we've not seen the problem described above. However, with NS 3.1 prerelease there's the tmpnam() problem when a certain number of the files in a project have been modified. The symptoms are that CVS spits out the source code to your terminal.

NeXT will definitely > generate sales from their presence at the SIA show. > PC Expo is a VERY expensive show.. Well, I disagree. NeXTSTEP needs exposure and credibility, and having a strong, explicit presence at mainstream shows like PC Expo is an important part of that. Otherwise it'll retain its image as an expensive niche product that only a few insiders know about or use. NeXT put Andy Grove on stage at NWExpo and he told them that what was needed was volume volume volume. Clearly they weren't listening. Don't get me wrong; I'm not saying that NeXT ought to pursue the `mass market' as its first priority. Its current focus is correct. But it cannot _ignore_ the mass market. And, IMHO, it has what it needs to make significant inroads very cheaply (you only need to grab a very small proportion of the mass market to increase the installed NS seats by an order of magnitude). That would make developers happy (many more shrink-wrap sales in the `mass' market than the mcca market), users happy (more shrink-wrap apps, more attention paid by vendors to carrying NS-specific or NS-capable products, more people to send snazzy NeXTMail to), and NeXT happy ($$$).

The cause of the problem was that the PS2Mouse driver and the PS2Keyboard driver would not work with the newer versions of the BIOS that Micronics started shipping with a revised system board. Mainly it concerned the new Gateway ROM BIOS PLUS Version 0.10 GJX30-05E (but it also works for the earlier GJX30 versions). For NEXTSTEP for Intel Processors Release 3.1 to install correctly, the new Gateways V-Series systems must have the PS2 style keyboard jumper ENABLED. This jumper is not documented in the Gateway2000 Manuals as the PS2 style keyboard jumper, instead it is listed as W7 - "Reserved". Gateway ships these systems with the jumper disabled, and usually recommends leaving the jumper disabled for use with system and keyboard drivers. However, ou must change the W7 jumper to the "on" position (you will need to find a jumper to use or locate a spare one). The W7 jumper is located right next to the W40 jumper on the motherboard. See the diagram below. Micronics (Motherboard OEM for Gateway) is currently running NEXTSTEP on a new Gateway with the W7 jumper changed. This setup has worked with both serial and bus mice. NeXT's Quality Assurance group is testing this fix now. [This has been tested and verified at the University of Houston with the GJX30-01D verion of the BIOS.] **** The PS2Mouse driver must be loaded for this to work. If [and only if!!] you followed my earlier installation notes, you were told to remove the PS2Mouse driver from the file /usr/Devices/System.config/Instance0.table which was in the line "Boot Drivers". A simple way to do this is to run the Configure.app located in /NextApps and click on "save". The configure.app will automatically add the PS2Mouse driver to the Instance0.table file. Powerdown, then add the jumper and reboot. No need to mess with the turbo switch or anything, it should come up in NEXTSTEP automatically. To quickly verify if your keyboard will work, check if the NUM-Lock LED is off. If it is not, then your keyboard WILL NOT work. The W7 jumper is located next to the first LocalBus slot near the right-back end of the system board. This diagram is for the Desktop configuration only. The jumper may be located in a different location if you have a tower case. -- Paul S.

My > default assumption would be that as long all the copies of the program > were running on ONE machine's CPU, and you had a license for that > machine, everything is kosher. Let's think about this. The licence indicates what you _can_ do, not what is forbidden. Technically, the fact that you need to copy the program in memory might be considered by some computer-illiterate judge to be unallowed copying (Big, I know, but I'm trying to make a point.). Licences have just started allowing people to have copies of the soft on more than one machine, as long as only one is used at any given time (i.e. home and work machine, or desk and portable units, etc...). They can even forbid you from transferring it. NS/i's licence would need to state that you can run more than one computer from one copy (licence). Mesa would need to, too. Otherwise, this is obviously contrary to the spirit, if not the letter of the licence. Software licences are restrictive by nature, and are interpreted that way (i.e. to protect the copyright holder's interest [please no FSF flame. I'm stating this, not saying it's good]). By netbooting more than one machine off a single licence, you'd be as illegal as if you'd directly copied it on every hard drive it's running on over the net. The 3.0 Moto licence states "licence too use the NeXTSTEP software on only one computer at a time" (p. 53), which seems to adress this very issue directly. The NS/i licence should have a similar clause, if not an exact reproduction. Netbooting should be seen as a way of reducing hardware demands, not software. Just like plain networking... As far as running more than one copy of soft on the same machine, unless it is expressly allowed, no can't do... Check the licence, it should state something like "NeXT grants you a personal, non-exclusive [others can use it as much as you are allowed to, under your control. My comment] licence to use the NeXT...". Applied to corporations, this would grant individuals the right to use the soft, not a complete entreprise. Others could come over to your machine and un it there, or even run it from theirs over the net, but they couldn't do so if you were already running it. In addition, the "one computer" clause above could be applied by saying that the app, while not executing on the local machine but on a remote host, has parts (i.e. visual code) being used on your machine (i.e. what is sent the windowserver on your machine to have it display there), therefore falling under it's scope. Also, the act of copying the interface of the app on your screen without having a licence might in itself be enough (i.e. not a la Apple vs MS kind of interface suit, but in the plain old "you copied my interface", and in this case it being totally similar...). Hope this clears it for everyone. Don't hesitate to flame. I like it hot! ;8^/ BTW This is _NOT_ legal advice, just answers to questions. Don't hold me responsible for _anything_ that happens in any way related to it. Also, the fact that I'm adding this disclaimer is _NOT_ admission that it should have been included in previous posts, but simply the express stating of the implied obvious.

In its two page introduction editorial, it provides an overview of hardware and software. In a crescendo, it describes the different Intel family of microprocessors, DOS 6.0, Windows, Windows NT, OS/2, and lastly, NeXTSTEP 486. Excerpts follow: "NeXTSTEP for the rest of us. Another contender for the PC desktop operating system market is NeXTSTEP 486, also to be released this summer. NeXT Computer announced earlier this year it was abandoning the computer hardware business and would concentrate on selling software, where its real expertise lies. NeXTSTEP version 3.0 is a mature UNIX-based operating system that currently runs on NeXT's own workstation hardware. The 486 version promises to bring the powerful operating system to PC users. NeXTSTEP is object oriented, which means programmers can use software code written, tested and debugged by others rather than re-inventing the same wheel over and over again, thus reducing the time it takes to develop a program from scratch. In squaring off against operating system giant Microsoft, NeXT is making a bet-the-company gamble that the benefits offered by its integrated object-oriented environment will overcome the massive momentum DOS-Windows currently enjoys. Indeed, several large corporations have signed on. Also, the operating system is a hit with traders because they can develop proprietary trading programs much more quickly than with other computers (see "Rebel with a Cause: Steve Jobs' NeXT Challenge," Futures, October 199 2)."

Date: 5 Jul 1993 11:11:14 GMT Organization: Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum, Rechenzentrum Message-ID: <21928i$kp4@rubb.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de> Hi- I am out of the country this summer and haven't heard from NeXT regarding my 3.1 upgrade. I called in before the NW Expo to request upgrade information for 3.1. Back then the upgrade price was $99 for 3.0 owners. I guess my move to Europe on June 10th screwed them up. Is there an email address that I can reach them at to ask about how to follow up on this? I've also heard that the price of the upgrade has risen. What is the upgrade price now? And is there an academic price for the Motorola version of 3.1? Has 3.1/Motorola started shipping yet? These are questions that I guess have been asked, but my news server only archives a few days worth.

But what about graphics performance for Colorstations in applications that don't use color? Is text display in Terminal, for instance, slower on a Colorstation than on the greyscale machines? Or does each application/window only use as many bits as needed, allowing its graphics display to be as fast as on the non-Colorstations? Or is there a way to make it do so? Any answers or experiences would be appreciated. I'm considering buying a Colorstation, but want to make sure my normal non-color work isn't slowed. Thanks, - Trent Lange

With the exception of Undo, it has every feature available on every traditional spreadsheet available for NEXTSTEP. It is has the richest set of features available on any NEXTSTEP spreadsheet. Mesa reads all 1-2-3 macros, and executes most of them. Mesa will allow you to create your own 1-2-3 macros (and it always has!). Mesa's 1-2-3 macro capabilities are complete, not simply limited to the 10% of macro commands accessible via bracket macro statements. Mesa also has a powerful scripting language (MScript) which allows the users to program Mesa to perform many functions. One of our users has built an entire double-entry accounting system in Mesa using MScript. Mesa is the only NEXTSTEP spreadsheet that ships with an Object Library (MOLI Mesa Object Library Interface). This allows custom apps to include complete spreadsheet functionality with little work on the part of the programmer. Mesa even has palletized spreadsheet and graph objects. Third party applications (including TimeScape and DBInspector) take advantage of MOLI to enhance the performance and functionality of these applications. In addition, mission critical custom applications (including apps built by Systemhouse's Object Technology Center) are using MOLI to speed development and increase functionality. Mesa also supports AddIn Object Modules that allow custom programmers to add functionality to Mesa. Examples of AddIn Object Modules include: real time stock feeds (Mesa is the ONLY NEXTSTEP spreadsheet that can handle real time stock feeds), data feeds from telephone switching equipment, medical instrument monitoring and reporting, an interface to Mathematica to facilitate the performance of complex mathematics on spreadsheet data, and much more. Mesa is a well-behaved NEXTSTEP application supporting drag and drop color, patterns and fonts. Mesa accepts data dragged and dropped from Stone Design's DataPhile. Mesa also supports drag and drop menu commands, SQL queries, scripts, macros, reports, etc. Mesa has a visual report builder that is the most powerful and flexible of any available for any spreadsheet in the world. In addition, while other spreadsheets are limited to one pre-defined report per spreadsheet, Mesa supports an unlimited number of named reports in each spreadsheet. Mesa is also the fastest NEXTSTEP spreadsheet. On the NeXTWORLD spreadsheet benchmark, Mesa is 30 times faster than Improv and 4 times faster than a beta of Solution. Mesa is 100 times faster than Questor and users remark that Mesa blows WingZ away in terms of performance. As you can see, Mesa is feature-rich. The version of Mesa refered to in the above piece is the first version of Mesa. We released Mesa 1.5 at Expo. The only spreadsheet in the world that is arguably more powerful or feature-rich than Mesa is Microsoft Excel. In terms of its SQL access capabilities and its Object interfaces (MOLI and AddIn Object Modules), Mesa is the most powerful spreadsheet in the world on any platform. Mesa is also the best selling NEXTSTEP spreadsheet. Most of the largest NEXTSTEP customers are using Mesa. Athena Design is committed to NEXTSTEP. We demonstrated this by being the first commercially shipping NEXTSTEP/Intel product. We have been upgrading Mesa continually. Mesa comes with one year of free upgrades, so even our first customers are using the latest version of Mesa with no upgrade costs. Athena Design backs Mesa with unlimited technical support (for commercial customers only) via both telephone and e-mail. Our tech support team has been called the best in the business (one of the Best of Breed Community Service award winners told me that he was going to make sure that all his other software vendors gave the same high quality level of technical support as Athena Design does.) It's no wonder that Athena Design won the Best of Breed award for Mesa. We have the best spreadsheet product available and we back it with top quality technical support. We also care about folks in education by offering an 80% discount on Mesa to educational customers. Thanks. David

Our office currently uses NeXTstations and PCs on Windows or NEXTSTEP, so NEXTSTEP/DOS/WINDOWS solutions are preferred. But, if there is a compelling reason to use a Mac or an Amiga, let me hear it. Are there any NeXTDimension fans out there that could provide info? How about the Amiga Toaster? How about this Video Spigot that I heard mentioned back in the nebulous past? Information that I'd like would be about software, hardware (cards, cables), and any other equipment that is needed. For example, would a standard VCR work? Seems like it, but I don't know for sure. I suppose there should be some sort of time keeping that is precise enough to make position and velocity estimation based on change in position from frame to frame. Please email directly to me at: tybrin4!trey@sci34hub.sci.com as I don't get many of these groups. thanks in advance, Trey McClendon TYBRIN Corporation

Other users on the network do not have this problem. It is baffling. Sometimes, I can press 'Update' and it will start updating, although I have no permission to do so. Pressing 'Stop' then 'Setup' might, after saying OK to the 'You don't have permission to set up' panel, turn the 'I' back on. I've restarted from a clean slate many times, dragging the target folders to the shelf. The 'I' will be visible and it will work. The next day, nothing will work. Any ideas?

Yoo Hoo. I know that NeXT LOVES its customers, especially the new Intel customers who have gone out on a limb to purchase NeXSTEP and evaluate it for future use and recommendation to clients. So I'm sure it must be that NeXT just hasn't seen the slew of posts that crosses these newsgroups on a daily basis regarding the serial port drivers, or LACK of serial port drivers, (the built-in crash and hang the system feature). I find it extremely annoying to first be influenced to evaluate an operating system I have heard nothing but praise for, from a corporation I have heard nothing but horror stories about (that's YOU NeXT), and then to be swayed to try it by gung-ho groups of evangelists who infest MindVox. Congratulations NeXT, judging by the number of rants in the local Forums on Vox you have at least 20 idiots who have purchased your OS and are now stuck. This is the tail end of the 20th century, NETWORKING is very important, people need to hook their computers together and use them to access other computers. They can't do this with NeXTSTEP 3.1 because the serial drivers DO NOT WORK. I'm sure that 3.2 will be a grand masterpiece that rights wrongs and fixes everything that was ever wrong (and there are at least 30 little gripes that come to mind ranging from the washed out appearance of the JAWS and ATI drivers, on systems that display rich and vivid color under Windows, to the countless little details that don't quite work). I am willing to accept all of this in the "beta" public release. What is utterly and absolutely unacceptable is selling an OS that CANNOT be used with a modem and then ignoring the constant cries of outrage. What may I ask is the problem? Does it take the greatest minds on earth years of time to write a serial port driver for a 486? A feat that countless very small corporations seem to have great success with. NeXT, FIX THIS and make it available SOON, as in SOONER than you are thinking about since you have apparently decided its OK to ignore this "minor" oversight. It really is very difficult to appreciate the wonder of NeXTSTEP from a machine that is crashing every 45 minutes. It is equally difficult to even suggest to anyone half-serious about getting any work done, that NeXTSTEP is a viable alternative. Thank you ever so much for your attention, a customer, Joseph Mercke, Vice President, Artek Technologies.

You see, the ZyXEL modem has specific features built-in for doing things with voice -- converting the voice into a data stream that can be manipulated (saved).

If the serial driver is broken, then certainly serial connections to printers are broken, wouldn't you say? :~) I've been told straight out by a NeXT tech support SE, after I phoned in a trouble report regarding PostScript printing via serial port, that the serial driver under 3.1 Intel is "totally broken and will be fixed in 3.2". Whether that means we have to wait until 3.2 to get the fix, I don't know. Presumably a patch could be released earlier... Now, in fact, the serial driver seems to work okay at low speeds (up to 9600 bps), mostly okay at 19.2 kbps, and not at all any faster than that. This is my experience after a limited amount of testing trying to get serial-based printing to work. For printing, at least, there's no point worrying about broken serial support; just use parallel, since it works like a charm. -- Royce Howland, DKW Systems Corp. | "And since OS/2 2.0 is a 32-bit Everything is IMHO | operating system, programs are royce@splunge.uucp (NeXTMail OK) | easier to write and run faster, or kakwa!atlantis!splunge!royce | too." -ad for OS/2 2.0

What the f*** is so critical about it? Serial ports are often a problem for multi tasking systems. This is because of the relative stupidity of the serial port cards, and the interrupt overhead associated with each character that arrives or leaves. It was pretty common that Unix systems in particular would have relativly low baud rate limits. The usual method of getting around this is to put in a smarter, buffered card. The serial ports on a PC have no real smarts and relativly shallow buffers. In addition, the protocols used on a the mach/unix system may require interrogation of every character that comes in. This leads to a relativly high overhead for serial processing (68030 based cubes could barely do 9600). The robustness of the current 3.1 driver is probably directly proportional to the baudrate and general system load. It is my understanding that NeXT is working on new serial drivers that should give better serial performance. The tradeoff is that the rest of the system will probably slow down. -- Joe Freeman FreemanSoft Inc. A NEXTSTEP software and consulting services company.

Datapoint: Linux manages to do pretty well with its serial port drivers, and it runs on the same hardware as NeXTstep, and it's a multitasking Unix too. AND, it manages to stay rather zippy.

As many of you are aware, we were under some pretty heavy time constraints shipping 3.1 by May 25th. We could not slip from this date, so we shipped a buggy serial driver. We haven't been ignoring the problem as some people here have been suggesting. We haven't been ignoring customers complaints. It's probably our #1 priority patch to release before 3.2 ships. We do in fact have a fixed serial driver in house and are in the process of testing it. Making sure we don't release another buggy driver is very important to us, so we're spending a lot of time testing it. The last I heard, the tests were progressing very well, and people are expecting that we'll be able to release it in the next couple of weeks. However, if some aspect of the testing fails, it might take a little longer. Erik p.s. I didn't write the serial driver, just letting you know that we do listen to you in here.

I was swayed by their fancy ad's and the "glowing" reviews they got in PC-Magazine. What I got shipped to me is esentially a $3000 (at the time) paper weight!!! Here's the deal, Their customer services sucks big time. They made a mistake in my order in sending a wrong component and then expected me to give them my credit card number to send the correct part. -strike 1- Then, on the 28th day of the 30day money back gaurantee the IDE hard drive looses the data. I figure, these things happen, I call tech support and after waiting for over 1 hour (fortunatly on Zeos's nickel), I get some help, which is basically reformat the drive and start over. So, I go out and get a standard QIC tape drive so I never have to go through that again. Guess what, the tape drive doesn't work in this machine. I go and have another tape drive installed in the machine and that one doesnt work. So I call Tech support and they don't know what's happening but they say ship the unit back and we'll get it working. So I spend about $60 to get it back to them and they keep it for about 2 weeks and ship it back to me. Guess what, They didn't do a QR%Q%$%@^^% thing to fix the unit!!! the work order says they hooked up one of theirs and it worked so the machine isn't at fault. ---strike 2--- While the machine was back there I had them install the aformentioned Adaptec scsi chip. Oh, by the way, the 30 MBG has long since run out having had faith that the problem with the disk drive was minor.... So, now I want to install NeXTSTEP on this machine, I go to hook up a CD rom drive and start the NEXTSTEP install proceedure and the Mach kernel doesnt seem to be able to register the CD rom drive. So, I figured the scsi Chip that Zeos installed must not be 100% compatible with the Adaptec 1542 that is on the compatibility list. so I go and buy one of those. Seems that something in the Zeos bios is preventing the Adaptec 1542C controller from accessing the shadow rom bios and thus the card cannot function in the machine. Popped the card in another pc and it works perfectly. In short, the Zeos has too many proprietary things going on to be compatible with anything, the memory is non-standard 72pin SIMMS, the bios is apparantly non-standard, and so on and so on. Strike Three. I am seriously considering changing the mother board to a Vega brand to be rid of Zeos and the problems. So unless you are a masochist, don't buy Zeos!!!!

Everything works fine. Also, Photo CD's also work, using the PhotoAlbum.app (or whatever it's called). I'm wondering if NeXTSTEP knows enough to run the CD-300 at double speed, or do I need a special driver for this? I can't tell from observation whether the player is currently running at 1X or 2X. __________________________________________________________________________ I neither confirm nor deny the presence of any disclaimer at this juncture

My main source of information regarding NeXT has been MindVox and The WELL, along with comp.sys.next, which I unfortunately did not read often enough, or perhaps there were no posting prior to those of the last few weeks about the serial ports. Though (justifiably) angry, Mr. Mercke's (sp) well-stated letter summed up the way I'm feeling right now better than I could do it myself, so I'll let it stay with that and add in that I find it ridiculous that FREEWARE such as Linux or BSDI *CAN* have working, robust drivers, cross all kinds of platforms while NeXT says "A couple of weeks for testing." NeXT I would say to you: Make that as fast as you can, nothing you possibly release could be worse than it is. They plain and simple don't work. I am very slightly pacified by at least some response, but if I don't see some ACTION in the form of updated drivers VERY soon, then I'm going to start writing some letters and having conversations with people I consult for, starting with Viacom and moving on to the NeXT forums on MindVox and WELL, and ending with a direct mailing of every single person covering technology and Cyberspace issues on both Vox and WELL, and their number is quite large. Judging by the heat here I'm going to have a lot of comiserators happy to do the same thing. This is not a threat, its a statement of action. If as you claim NeXT is doing, and some new serial drivers come out, I'll be writing the same group of people letters, only this time it'll be how wonderful NeXT is to customer response, and how quickly they solve problems once they are made aware of them. Please give me the opportunity to say nice things, and give your customers what they paid for in the first place.

From what I have heard, all of the Ethernet networking services work just fine. SLIP and modem connections faster than 9600 are broken, yes.

Are : there also Hardware limitations? Will some software not compile/work on : the 030s? Having both a 030 cube and a 040 station (Thanks Ross!!) on my desk I think I'm able to give some advice. First, plain computing performance is s.th between 4:1 and 6:1. Video performance is about 2.5:1 - but still better than many (most?) NSI systems. Also I/O performance seems to be slower, though its difficult to say how much slower. You definitely need at least 16 MB of RAM, which is no problem, cause you have 16 slots and 1 MB simms are very cheap to get - especially in the NeXT community :-). Some further drawbacks: - no floppy disk - serial line lacks harware flow control Advantages: - this great old keyboard with the \ and | at the right place. I loovve it! - OD - 3 m monitor cable - its the 'real' NeXT In my opinion a cube is o.k. as long as you don't want to do serious NS programming or need to use any computing intensive software like in image processing. I used to work with Mathematica, TeX, Framemaker and X windows on my cube and it was o.k. But programming was not very much fun - turn around times and debugging was too bad.

Also, the pipe "djpeg JPGFILE | pnmtotiff > TIFFFILE" does the trick very well without requiring any interaction or mouse-events, so is especially nice when there are many files to convert. I found a (somewhat strange but usable) version of djpeg inside ImageViewer; I believe it is also available as part of the JPEG source code distribution. pnmtotiff is part of the pbmplus package, available on various archive sites. pnmtotiff gives me silly warning messages about "too many colors, using RGB" when used this way, but appears to do the job well despite them under 3.0, so I've not bothered to investigate the messages. Under 3.1, it seems to trigger the bug that fills up the process table; three or four runs of pnmtotiff and the machine will have to be rebooted. Since this is a known 3.1 bug, I'm not blaming pnmtotiff, just warning you. -- Irving_Wolfe@Happy-Man.com 206/463-9399 x101 fax 206/463-9255 Happy Man Corp. 4410 SW Pt.

The expansion dictionary panel does not correspond to the on- or offline documentation. The 3.0 release notes say that: "The user interface for the expansion dictionary was completely overhauled. The escape key expansion now works correctly with European characters." No futher explanation is given as to how the new interface works. By analogy to the old interface, I seem to be able to enter keys and values, but typing the key followed by escape in an Edit window produces nothing but a system beep. Has the method of invoking the expansion changed along with the interface? I perused the latest NeXTanswers and found nothing applicable. I even looked in the docs that come with the NS/FIP developer cube and they still document the old expansion dictionary interface. What's the secret to getting the expansion dictionary to work?

Message-ID: <1993Jul8.201648.18915@informatik.uni-bremen.de> Sender: robocop@lehre24 (Dirk Lehmann + Co) Organization: Universitaet Bremen Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1993 20:16:48 GMT Hello out there ! I have a big, big problem. A few day's ago I want to read some sheets of the NeXT-Documentation on my NeXTstation (NS 3.0), but the Librarian nor Edit.app nor the RTFInspector of the Workspace was able to display the graphics in the text. I only got a NXdefaulticon instead of a figure. I tried some other documents and generated one by myself, but this doesn't worked too. Then I switched from my regular account to an other account, where everything was displayed fine. Opening a rtfd-document on my regular account via NXhost from a shell makes Edit.app displaying all graphics. This event makes me erasing my default-database (~/.NeXT folder). After logging in again, I started Edit and all figures were in place. This might be the end, but it wasn't! After I have placed all the icons back in the dock, I got my deja-vu. No graphics ! After I erased the .NeXT-folder again, I placed an icon one by one and let Edit display a rtfd-document. When I placed ImageViewer in the dock, the same magic appeared. So I started again (get lost ~/.NeXT-folder !) and left my ImageViewer in /LocalApps/Graphics. For a few minutes I was happy : figures placed all around the text and everything on my regular account. But this moment of satisfaction didn't last long and all graphics I saw were NXdefaulticons. So ImageViewer is not to blame for this dilemma. Some other trials were also without effect.... Is there somebody out there who had this problem or is able to solve it ?? Thanks in advance Dirk

Remember, CDPlayer is an unsupported demo app. It's probably some hack that some NeXT employee through together one night, then showed his buddies at work the next day. As a hack, any strange behavior is possible. Maybe the original author had his CD-ROM drive as '/dev/sd1', so he coded CDPlayer to expect that. Who knows. Who cares.

As much as I hate to burst your bubble, the overwhelming need to run MicroPhone is probably NOT the reason that most people are upset that plugging a modem into the serial port makes the system crash. The main reason I know of that people in our department need to use modems for, are to network several floors of office space that are not yet wired for ethernet, using simple SLIP hookups, which give flexible and on-demand networking for many departments. I would imagine others have similar needs. From my own personal perspective I might get a little upset if I had a NeXT and wanted to login to Vox or CIS from home and couldn't do it, but that's not really the issue. Note that this is in no way a disparagement of MicroPhone which is in fact one of two programs (along with CABLES) that we will be looking at in the very near future, its simply the reality that running a terminal program is somewhere a distant second or third, behind running SLIP or shell scripts that make use of rz, sz, etc.

Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.advocacy,comp.sys.next.sysadmin,comp.sys.next.misc From: bruce@TotSysSoft.com (Bruce Gingery) Subject: DFax and FaxModems (was Re: ``Object Oriented Software'') Message-ID: <1993Jul10.073049.2110@ToTSySSoft.com> Sender: bruce@ToTSySSoft.com Organization: Total System Software Date: Sat, 10 Jul 1993 07:30:49 GMT Time to clear up a couple of mis-statements which have appeared in this (csn.advocacy) newsgroup, and inform our present customers and customers to come. -- This message is in response to a migrating name thread last called:...and Telebit modems (was:...) 1. Presently Supported Hardware DFax is currently available in v1.04d - SupraFAXmodem and v1.04k - (BABT approved)-Mistral-FaxModem version. Each modem is supported to the capacity of the modem. The SupraFAXmodem version supports ``Adaptive Answering'' so the DFax-Supra version does too. The Mistral supports Fax OR Data on incoming calls. Outgoing calls on all versions can have any mix of fax and data calls, and intermixed with incoming calls according to setting. Either version may be set to only accept Fax or Data calls, and this behaviour can be varied by system-clock events if desired. With v1.04, an entirely new .app has been included which allows the Superuser, group `Staff' and `Wheel' or any user (handy for private systems) to override the default behaviour on a call-by-call basis, -- allowing receipt of faxen from broken or improperly desined fax equipment which does not produce the distinctive ``CNG'' tone with a manual override. Other administrative functions are also available to the superuser, including a temporary disable which effectively removes DFax interaction from the system for such things as debugging a SLIP connection with a single button -- off -- on. v1.04 also allows ``manual answer'' which allows for switching from voice to data or fax on an established voice call when both the faxmodem and telephone share the same line. ``Procedure interrupt'' (switching the other direction, from fax-to-voice) is under study. v1.04 app displays status on-dock with a backup explanation option when activity is noted but semi-distinct. The app must execute on the server, but may use a remote windowserver. DFax has been designed also, to allow timed behaviour, that-is background (cron) control of its behaviour - answer/no-answer, adaptive (on FaxModems which support adaptive answer), fax-only data-only according to the needs of the administrator. This function does require knowledgable setup. Other items are now GUI push-buttons & selections. v1.04d (Supra) will operate with NEXTSTEP v2.1/2.2, 3.0 or 3.1. v1.04k (Mistral) will operate with NEXTSTEP v3.0 or v3.1 DFax leaves the serial port UNOCCUPIED when it is not actually in use. The only allowance needed by other software is the sending of an ATZ, ATZ1 or other initialization strings desirable to share the modem for outgoing calls. (suid-uucp is also recommended for compatibility with uucp uses of the modem). DFax does leave the modem in a state ready to accept calls if the modem is sent an ATA, and the primary noticable dif- ference between the DFax initialization and other uses is that command-echo is turned off by DFax intialization to enhance processing. 2. Compatibility DFax has been shown compatible with SoftPC usage of the modem (i.e. Prodigy software) with uucp, MicroPhone-Pro, kermit, tip, cu, SLIP, and ppp. When SLIP/ppp is used, DFax is same-line and same-call compatible with telnet, ftp, rlogin, net-shared filesystems, remote Windowserver, gateway operations to other networks, and Net-Backup operations... In short the only thing we've been incompatible with was some Scanner/Tablet software which plays with the DFax port, even when it is installed for the other port. DFax receives outgoing faxen from normal Print-Panel option jobs, and places incoming faxen for the standard NEXTSTEP Fax Reader application. Background generation of faxes by non-GUI Unix tasks has been done, but is not directly supported by DFax or Total System Software. Incoming data calls may be from anything which would work with /usr/etc/getty answering the line, as it actually does receive all incoming (if configured) data calls, which normally passes the login response to the standard Unix login program. 3. New Version available to registered users We have established (307)-635-3751 v.42bis/14400 for a ``Public'' login on one of our NeXT systems. Similar to an anonymous-ftp login, send ``guest'' as the login id, and your E-Mail address at the password prompt. This allows download of a few `public' files, chat with TSS personnel (talk) when available, and quick on-system posting of E-Mail queries, including request for upgrade-login. Registered licensees of DFax, including both pre-release and later purchasers may (after obtaining a secondary login id & password) download the latest version ready to install on their system. (Other extensions are in development which will be free ONLY to pre-release customers). Download will be in one of the following manners Download timings are approximate: Z-Modem 4.5 min (sent with sz -Z) Kermit 9-12 min (default settings, no-swin) X- or Y-Modem 10-15 min ASCII Streamed/UU-Encoded 23-min. Terminal emulation supported defaults to NeXT's termcap XTERM, an excellent vt100 variant, compatible with C-Kermit Terminal.app, PC-Kermit, and nearly all vt-100/-102 -320... emulations. Prompts are presented for use of Z-Modem (or other protocols) under C-Kermit when selected for download. Registered licensees of DFax are invited to login (guest) or E-Mail for upgrade access. Download passwords will NOT be issued on-line. E-Mail requests should be addressed to emily@TotSysSoft.com Upgrade announcement was delayed by equipment problems and the arrival of 3.1-NEXTSTEP. Upgrading from 1.0x to 1.04 does NOT imply a multiplication of license. A registered licensee may use any combination of versions two-modems per license purchased, on one or two workstations. When the second modem is on a second NeXT not the property of the licensee, support is to the licensee only. 4. Under development v1.20 (current designation) is under development which will support Supra, Mistra, ZyXEL, HSD, and if negotiations meet expectations, the new DoveFax 14400 FaxModem. This version may be field-upgradable for other faxmodems, but will support any combination of these four. (two per license). As always, v1.04 and v1.20 are licensed for support of up to two faxmodems on one or two NEXTSTEP systems. If lowest level code (and serial driver fix) for FIP timing coincides, this will be furnished in fat binaries -- thus the two licensed usages will be for any combination of white and black NEXTSTEP. v1.20 will REQUIRE v3.1 NEXTSTEP (or FIP). In either case net-faxing from white or black is the same. We're finally getting into the swing to support other fax modems on a timely basis when reasonable communication is available from the modem manufacturer, regarding exact proper activity of THEIR subset of Class-2 behaviour. 5. Availablility (blatant advertisement) DFax is available Retail or to Dealers or Educational buyers from Alembic Systems Ltd. of Denver, CO and London UK. E-Mail to robbie@Alembic.com for pricing. A Toll-free support and order number is also maintained by Alembic-Denver. 1-800-452-7608 or 1-303-799-6223 Sorry, upgrade downloads and upgrade download passwords are not (yet) available from Alembic. 6. WHAT IS ADAPTIVE ANSWER? Adaptive answer is a feature on some FaxModems which detect the ``CNG'' warble-ringing tone emitted by properly functioning fax equipment during dialing and until connection by the dialed party. FaxModems with this feature will generally answer in Data mode (if the feature is enabled) if this tone is not present when the phone is answered. The modem will notify the computer of the type of call. 7. WHAT IS DISTINCTIVE RING Distinctive ring is two different timings of incoming rings depending upon the telephone number dialed. Current DFax versions count rings as sent by the modem. The most common distinctive ring is as follows... Line-1 RING RING RING RING Line-2 RING RING RING RING RING RING Some modems accept the double-rings as a single ring sending a single ``RING'' message to the host. Others send every ring. You may observe the same behaviour on a variety of answering machines. 8. Modems to be considered for support A. Must have some modicum of developer support from manufacturer B. Should, but does not HAVE to, support adaptive answer C. Must support Class-2, 2., or 2.0 protocols. D. Should be already in production E. Should be operable over standard Serial cu/tty devices F. Must support at least 19200bps DCE-DTE G. Modem must be answerable in Fax/Data mode with ATA H. SHOULD not require NVRAM writes to disable auto-answer 9.

In particular, I recently purchased the TextToSpeech Kit from Trillium Sound Research Inc. of Albertha, Canada. I made the purchase, in part, because of a temproary price reduction; an offer of their User Kit for $95.00 (US). I paid via VISA an later found a shipping charge of $20.00 (Canadian) had bee added to the base cost. I beleive this works out to a US shipping cost of $16.52. I later received a bill from Federal Express for $5.10, not sure what this was but it appears to be some sort of tax. Leaving the latter charge (tax?) out of the equation this means that the shipping charge was aprox 15% of the total cost. Perhaps we have been too hard in our criticism of the U.S. Mail system. Certainly 1ST Class Mail would have been significantly cheaper and I had no immediate need for this app. The bottom line: Please provide alternative (slower and cheaper) means of shipping S.W. product.

From what I know of the Canadian mail system (which I admit is very little), it is better to have it shipped via Federal Express. Do realize that "international" mail, even if it is only from as far away as Canada, will be more exspensive. When purchasing a product you should always ask what shipping and handling charges will be (and any other charges there might be). That way they aren't ``hidden'' charges. When we ship our product, since it only weights 1lb 8oz, we ship it 2-day Priority Mail for domestic packages. This only costs the customer $3 and they receive their product quickly. Personally, I prefer companies to ship their products to me either via US mail or Federal Express. I try and avoid UPS at all costs because their such buttheads about delivery. [They expect you to take time off work so that you can be there during the time that they deliver. I once got them to make a special delivery after their regular hours after several rounds with them which finished with me asking them to mail me the package through US mail.] -- Sonja Jo Krenz-Bush ``Another one of the flock following the herd.''

Rather it is the fault of the US border police who are using every trick in the book to prevent imports from selling there. Perhaps your government should look at its own hidden protectionist ways before chiding Japan. I have sent a lot of hardware/software to the US (some sold and some just as a present and some returned because it was defective- the hw). I typically used UPS ground which is less than Fed Ex, although I did price out the Fed Ex alternative. Here's what happens. Even if goods are not subject to duty, handling, etc... they are typically examined (at random) by your border in order to see if there is something that can be taxed. The cost of this is then passed on to the sendor (me in these cases) and seemed to be random. Roughly $10US->$15US. This is a handling fee just to see if there is something to collect. I was charged this amount for sending back a defective midi keyboard, and am still appealing this. All is not that rosy up here either, but if you want to see hidden trade barriers you need only look no further than your own borders. >Perhaps we have been too hard in our criticism of the U.S. Mail >system.

When I first called up NeXT Connection years ago the cost of shipping a cable was greater than the cost of the cable. You want the costs to go down then you've got to reign in the rabid nationalists on both sides of the border. >Does any one else feel this way, or am I the lone complainer?

Any ideas? A while back I posted in this thread to say that I couldn't get CDPlayer.app to auto launch on the insertion of an audio CD. Well, yesterday I tried it again just for kicks and found that lo and behold it "just works" now. I don't know what happened, I certainly didn't change anything. Oh well... To summarize my experiences with CDPlayer.app... My system: NeXTcube '040 16/349 running NS 3.0, NeXT CD-ROM drive, Apple CD300 drive. With NeXT CD-ROM drive set to SCSI id 2 (sd1) CDPlayer.app will auto launch and work fine on insertion of audio CD, both from the dock and when not in the dock (this being immediately after a reboot). With Apple CD300 set to SCSI id 2 (I swapped it with the NeXT drive) CDPlayer.app behaves in exactly the same manner as with the NeXT drive. CDPlayer.app (as expected) will not recognize a second CD-ROM (ie whichever is not set to sd1). It will however, recognize a single drive regardless of which ID it is at. I did absolutely nothing to get this to work. I checked the existence of the appropriate files which were installed as part of the developer system (install done as root, I might add). Thats it. Now if I could only get pCD.app to run on insertion of a PhotoCD...

Nobody likes to wait a month, but > it's not going to kill anyone. I can limp along with my flaky UUCP until the new driver comes out. But I have to admit the bad taste is there. It Just Doesn't Work. What's worse it crashes my machine and forces an fsck, hanging at an interactive remote kernel debugger prompt just to be sure I wait for the fsck. I could live with occasional line garbage (UUCP will fix that anyway); I wouldn't mind an occasional crash of UUCP (so my mail comes an hour later). OS crashes are just not acceptable. I know that, you know that, NeXT knows that. I don't doubt that general PC serial drivers are much harder than they ought to be, but that's no excuse. NeXT has had 18 months to get one that at least doesn't crash. They've known for 6 months that the serial drivers had real problems. After knowingly realeasing the problems they have no official comment on resolution to their customers.

[] while I would agree with Philip that things sent here from Canada can truly get the run-around, and cost $ in the bargain, based on *my experiences only* (i.e. others mileage no doubt varied) while living in Canada last year the problems going *into* Canada are almost infinitely worse. In addition to the tariffs and various border policies, there are also the various forms of Canadian sales taxes which are so onerous (15% in Ontario, I think ~19% now in PEI and New Brunswick) they try to apply it to everything possible. The best example I can cite is my NeXT Mathematica documentation, which sat at the border for a few days while they "inspected" it, and then was released only after I paid $17 Canadian on a product that cost only $25 US. FYI this was in the Fall of '91, when the exchange rate was running about 88 CA to $1 US. The degree of usuriousness is left as an exercise for the reader :) All my Canadian friends know how much I loved the country --- would seriously consider moving back, to tell the truth --- as in many ways it's a superior society, but protectionist trade policies are definitely an arena in which the US is more "enlightened" (if still eons behind the Australians). Hell, the Canadian have Inter-PROVINCIAL trade barriers, i.e. you can't buy, for example, Moosehead beer in Ontario as it's not brewed in the province. clearly getting off track...... is there an alt.gatt ?? :) []>The bottom line: Please provide alternative (slower and cheaper) []>means of shipping S.W. product.

Others are probably not > audio-command equivalent, even if they have the same basic SONY mechanism. I've got a genuine NeXT CD-ROM, and CDPlayer doesn't work for me. If I simply insert an audio CD into the drive, it horks it back out, and the console log reads (after a bunch of error messages no doubt due to Workspace trying to open the CD as a data disk): Jul 13 00:56:13 Workspace: Mounted scsi disk at /cdaudio cdaudio.util: CANNOT OPEN CDPlayer Double-clicking CDPlayer produces a panel saying "Couldn't open CD-ROM drive, OK?". Inserting the CD at that point does no good. My setup: slab w/ 105MB internal at scsi 1, Fujitsu 660MB external at scsi 0, and the CD-ROM drive at scsi 4 (as sd2). I tend to believe the guy who said that the program is hardwired to expect the CD-ROM at sd1. Is this a FAQ yet? Jim Vlcek molly!vlcek@uunet.uu.net

But I wanted to get your attention. Does anyone have any experience using the ATI EISA card under NS/I. Since it didn't "just work" I tried other numerous settings and other worthless crap just trying to get the entire test program to display something but the card still blanks my Nano F550i at resolution higher than 640x480. I have removed all other cards from my system (Dell 450DE). I tried ATI support but there closed by the time I can get home to play with my system. I tried dell support and 1 guy said that another guy got it working by disbaling the memory aperture in the ATI config but enabling it in the EISA config, but that didn't work either. I also moved the memory aperture location around and tried various power configurations. PLEASE, PLEASE, if you know anyone or you personally have set up this card and had it work please tell what you did, even if you didn't do anything. And if you have this card working and can boot to DOS please run the install programs diagnostics and tell me if everything came up OK, screen doesn't die at 1024x768, because this means my card is most likely bad. I am eagerly awaiting your reponse espicially if you have the answer to my problem. If I can't get this working its back to OS/2 and another very dissatisified customer of NeXT's fabulous service and support. thanks John Stanhope PS. I know I've posted this before but so far nothing has worked and I get just a little tired of this crap especially since everything I have is listed under the compatibilty quide.

CDPlayer.app > autolaunches like it is supposed to work. Now note the phrase "autolaunches". I realize Trey is just trying to be helpful here, but it seems I should clarify my remarks (and repeat the second paragraph) as I also got a number of email messages which hinted that I was confused in thinking that CDPlayer only works when the CD-ROM is device sd1. And, like Trey, they all skipped over my second paragraph (which I find a little annoying). There are two (common) ways to use CDPlayer.app to play music CD's: 1) Start up CDPlayer.app by double-clicking on it. The program asks you to insert the music CD in "external disk 1". If you can do that (if your CD-ROM is device sd1), then you're all set. If some other device is sd1, then it just gives you an error message and quits. 2) Turn on the "Public Window Server" option in the Unix section of Preferences.app (and then log out and log back in again for that change to take effect). With this option on, you can then stick a music CD in *without* starting CDPlayer.app, and NeXTSTEP will autolaunch the CDPlayer program. While this is nicer, it also means you have turned on that "Public Window Server" option, and that option is a serious security hole for any NeXT which is connected to a network. No network-connected NeXT should have this option on. For that matter, NeXT never should have implemented the option the way they did (ie, with zero security). The original poster mentioned that he got the error message when *starting up* CDPlayer.app. They were therefore using method #1. My first paragraph was meant for how that method works (or doesn't work, as the case may be). As far as I know, if you double-click on the application then it will *only* work if your CD-ROM drive is setup such that it's device sd1 (or, to be more precise, so that it can be reached at /dev/rsd1h). My phrasing in that paragraph did not make it clear that I was talking about a limitation that exists only with method #1, but my second paragraph seems to make the point about as clearly as I can think of: "The only option is to turn on the public window server option (which, by the way, I recommend that you *NOT* do, because it's a security risk), and then stick music CD's into the drive. In that case the application will work no matter what device the ------------------------------- CD-ROM drive is. However, if you start up the CDPlayer.app before putting in a music disc, then the application will look at device sd1 and only sd1 (which in your new configuration is a hard disk, and the program can not open that...)." Some of the confusion that has occurred in (the many) usenet threads on CDPlayer.app is because people are talking about different methods. Someone helpfully offers advice for how they are using method #X, and the other person can't get music CD's to work despite that help because they are using the other method. Now, let me say once again that I recommend that no one turn on the "Public Window Server" preference. That seems to leave you with method #1 -- and that limitation where the CD-ROM drive must be sd1. (aside: note that "sd1" does not necessarily mean the device at SCSI ID #1. If you don't know how SCSI ids map to device numbers, then read up about it or something). Well, this limitation sucks, so I futzed around a little last night and figured out how to run CDPlayer.app *without* turning on Public Window Server, and *without* restricting which device the CD-ROM drive must be. It turns out you can specify which device CDPlayer.app should to use when it starts up (in fact, that's all method #2 is really doing). You just have to give CDPlayer.app a text file which contains the name of the device that it should use. Note the text file needs to be *just* that device name (no characters after it, including linefeeds or carriage-returns). Also note that you have to have write access to that file (even though the program doesn't seem to write to the file). If you check the file /usr/filesystems/cdaudio.fs/cdaudio.device, you should see a file with the right format. Unfortunately that file is owned by root, and other userids don't have write access to it. So, what I did was copy that file to a file in my home directory with the command: cp -p /usr/filesystems/cdaudio.fs/cdaudio.device ~/SetUp/cdaudio.device This gives me a file that I have write access to (it'd probably be a good idea to check and see if this file lists the right unix device name to get to your CD-ROM drive, in my case it's /dev/rsd2h). I then created a simple shell script named Start_CD that has the following two lines in it (the second line is probably wrapped in this usenet article, sorry about that...): #!/bin/sh /NextDeveloper/Demos/CDPlayer.app/CDPlayer -NXOpen ~gad/SetUp/cdaudio.device & and put that shell script in a directory that's in my PATH (in my case, it's in /usr/local/bin/Start_CD). Then all I have to do is type Start_CD as a unix command and CDPlayer.app will start up and ask me to insert a disk in "external disk 2". Once I do that, I'm merrily playing my music CD's. Note that this method should even allow you to pick which CD-ROM player to use for playing music CD's (assuming you have more than one connected to your NeXT), but I doubt many people will care about that. I realize this seems like a lot of silly little steps just to play music CD's, but for some people this will be the only way to get CDPlayer.app to work. It'd be pretty trivial to write a NeXTSTEP application to handle these minor details, but I feel too silly about writing an application which does little more than launch some other application. This isn't really a complete FAQ list for the questions that come up with CDPlayer.app, but maybe it'll help clear up some questions for some people interested in using this demo program. I'm a bit of a CD fanatic (with a collection of music CD's to match) myself, so I wanted to figure this out and then pass the info along in case other people were interested. The other most common problem is when CDPlayer.app has lost it's setuid root status, and thus runs as the user who is logged in (and thus can't open any devices anywhere). I covered that in another recent article in comp.sys.next.sysadmin though, so I'll skip it here. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

It is similar going into Europe. In the UK, for instance, incoming software will get a 4.9% duty charged most of the time (it is supposed to apply to hardware only, but floppy disks are hardware :-/ ), and then 17.5% sales tax (VAT). However, you will find that it isn't really the borders that are at fault. US mail carriers encourage shippers to stick an insurance value on the top of the parcel. If you are paying $25 for something insured for $200, it is very hard to convince customs that you shouldn't pay tax on $200. US shippers need to be more aware of the international customer base. In the industry as a whole, non-North America accounts for 40 - 60% of revenue, when it is managed properly. The least that suppliers can do is be aware of shipping costs and times, and try to understand the effect of duties and taxes.

How easy is it to produce a PhotoCD presentation on a : NeXT. i.e. can I dump PS or TIFF images to a floppy and just send them : off to Kodak? I think it is not quite as easy as that. As far as I know, Kodak just can put real (say, old fashioned ;-) ) slides and photo negatives on CD. However, Kodak now offers two tools for processing the CD-ROM images on Apple (MESS-WIN?), which allow you to convert the proprietary format into almost anything (TIFF, PS, ...). I don't know the names of the products, but I remember having read a rather positive review. I think some other products are coming out now, too. (thinking about that, it seems you will always need a PC with Windows, just to run some of the software that is available out there. However, a PC where *both* systems (Win + NeXT) are installed, could be very interesting for many people. The "total cost of ownership" of NeXTstep now has been reduced from a somewhat ridiculous price to the price of a slightly larger HD and $299 for the software. Let's hope for it...) (of course full integration of windows programs into NeXTstep would be the ultimate selling point,... though I doubt it ever will happen) To do what you want, one would need tools for creating the Photo-CD format (which was not published for a long time, don't know the current situation) and writing the Photo-CD format to a CD (probably the newer CD writers should be able to do this?) I think that the Photo CD actually contains the image in 4 different resolutions. Peter

The solution might be to use your EISA utility to set the DPT's IRQ level to 15-edge instead of 14-edge, and to make sure that you set a transfer rate of only 5MB/s rather than 10MB/s (even if your harddisks can do 10MB/s). If this doesn't work, check with someone who has successfully installed the DPT card on an ALR, copy *all* the EISA settings, and try again. Good luck. /ivo welch

Hi here the short description of the bug. If you want to know the whole story read all. I have an EISA/VLB Board with Adaptec 1542B and 486/66Mhz SIS Chipsatz, Award Bios (:-(), ATI GUP VLB and 32 MB RAM When I want to boot, the following message is printed: Floppy Controller Reset: Command Timeout fd0: Sector 0 cmd = Read; fd_ioreq.timeout exceeded: Retrying This happens twice then instead of Retrying Recalibrating occurs. This happens 4 or 5 times then it says failed I get some messages. At the end it says: RDP........(type 'c' to continue) but with c nothing happens. Any idea? I installed NSFIP on an ISA Board with AMI BIOS 16MB RAM and ADAptec 1542B and ATI GU ISA BUS. Everything went fine. I changed the board and card and now I had colours and a fast machine (look above). I could mount floppies and so on. Then I decided to install all, the developpers, too so I had to reinstall everything. I tried, but the message above stopped me. DOes anyone know the problem? Isn't it strange that it works when NSFIP is installed and it works with all other OS? Only the boot disk at boot time. But the disk is ok, with the other board I can boot and install. :-( --- /********************************************************************/ /* Kay Schulz, Rheinstr. 24, 72768 Reutlingen, Germany */ /* 07121 / 60 19 61 privat */ /* 07121 / 35-1341 geschaeftlich */ /* */ /* kschulz@iva.k8.rt.bosch.de */ /* */ /* Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent. */ /* -- Salvor Hardin */ /* */ /********************************************************************/

So, if you've just printed something and now you want to turn off the printer, you type (in a terminal window) : /usr/etc/nppower off. Or just include an alias in your .cshrc file like: alias off /usr/etc/nppower off and then you only have to type "off".

If I remember my hardware list correctly, the SLC processors are NOT on that list so indeed the 700C may not in fact work with NeXTSTEP. Then again, this doesn't mean it won't work either. After try various pieces of hardware, configurations, IRQs etc on my quest to get NS/FIP on a machine for myself, I found the best thing to do was just try it.

I recently installed a 3COM 3C509TP ethernet adapter on my machine. It is setup at IRQ 15 and IO port 360. I know it works, since I have been able to use it under DOS. However, when I run NEXTSTEP/FIP, I cannot reach anything else than my own computer. When I try telneting somewhere, I get a "network is unreachable" message. I cannot ping anything else than my computer either. Another problem I have that might be related to this one happens when I try telneting to my self. It just write "trying *my adress*" and just sits there. Has anyone succeded in getting this network card to work? If yes, what IRQ and IO base address are you using?

I have a NextDimension Cube with two hard drives and an optical drive, internally, CD-ROM and floppy and Modem, externally. When I've been using the cube for quite a while I sometimes get a system panic, after which the NeXT won't restart - when I try to restart it says "failed system test" and hangs totally. This has only happened in the last few weeks, when the weather has been hot. One of the hard drives is a fujitsu, and they run quite hot. So I suspect that the problem is overheating.

It seems to be a standard in the industry to inflate prices of components over and above the normal config. Gateway & I'm sure all the other mail order firms do this also. When I last price checked the system that I would have liked from Gateway, I figured it would have cost the same to order the base system and buy the upgrade components here, but I would also retain the original replaced components.

I believe the Kodak products are ShoeBox (a little photo database) and Rennaisance (sp?), which is a photo retouching package. The cooler thing is the system extension that shows you 5 directories with the images divided up according to resolution, and thumbnails of each image viewable in the Finder. PhotoAlbum.app on the NeXT (bundled in 3.1) does all the conversion a NeXTer needs. Other than the PhotoShop plugin on the Mac (which lets you read the data in LAB) it's the best PhotoCD converter I've seen, especially since it provides a filter service which lets you import transparently into other apps. > > To do what you want, one would need tools for creating the Photo-CD format > (which was not published for a long time, don't know the current situation) > and writing the Photo-CD format to a CD (probably the newer CD writers > should be able to do this?) Well, sort of. The spec still isn't published, though tests I've done show that Hadmut's converter software does (at least for the images I looked at) exactly the same job as any of the Kodak blessed converters. Kodak has been selling a PhotoCD workstation for a year or so, which is basically a SparcStation, scanner, PhotoCD writer, and some other bits of stuff. You still (to my knowledge) can't get in the middle of the process of scanning the film to writing the PhotoCD. Kodak was supposed to be making it possible to write out your own digital data this summer, but I've been off doing other things, and haven't kept up on this. Keep in mind that this is at the high end of the market, i.e. it's possible you might be able to get access to this sort of stuff at a service bureau, but you won't be doing it at home anytime soon... > > I think that the Photo CD actually contains the image in 4 different resolutions. > The images on a PhotoCD are stored in 5 resolutions: 128x192, 256x384, 512x768, 1024x1536, and 2048x3076.

Yeah, that was somewhat harsh... but it is a FACT that there are way too many people who are flaming NeXT for things that are not NeXT's fault (or don't even exist), and this was one of them. It only took me two seconds to stick in the CD and VERIFY that the files were there (it even says so in the docs). This was an obvious case of someone not looking at the CD period. There are some valid concerns about NEXTSTEP at this point, the biggest being the serial driver problem on NS/Intel... but the processes non-problem (which has been addressed by Next as a NextAnswer) and flames about Frame 2.0 (several revisions old, the current is 3.0.1) not working on NEXTSTEP 3.1 are just for the sake of flaming.

I don't have any idea what version of gcc is in /usr/local/bin here, but it's the wrong one. Thanks David! I'd also like to thank all the respondents for helping me out. The correct problem was that the missing include files had been moved into some subdirectories by the friendly folks at NeXT, and that our local gcc wasn't looking there for them. There were lots of helpful hints along the lines of using find to locate the include files and then supplying make with the extra subdirectories, but the compiler supplied in release 3.0 does this by itself. -- Ed_Faught@ssc.gov WA9WDM wouldn't dare to speak for the Superconducting Super Collider Laboratory

I personally think PhotoAlbum.app left out one major feature which I was really hoping they would add. Namely, the ability to crop a photo at a smaller size and then only load in the cropped image when you switch to one of the larger photo sizes. You really need this if you want to look at parts of the largest image size without having 30-40 Megs necessary to load the entire image. I noticed in the Info Panel for PhotoAlbum, it makes reference to version 1.0 of a "PhotoCDKit".

First, I'm in HP multi-media Lab and, altho I don't work with them here, I know a little bit about them :-) I don't want to copy images from the photoCD to a computer, but the opposite. I want to create a presentation on a NeXT or PA-RISC or what have you, copy the resultant images to an electronic medium (not screen shots!), send them off and have a photCD come back that I can then use for a NON-COMPUTER based presentation. I.e. I want to use a consumer grade PhotoCD player and a tv set/monitor. What I did learn was that Steve's presentation was generated using Lighthouse sw (big $$) and that it was actually running on a NeXT because we didn't have a CPlayer available. What confused me was that fact that he appeared to be using a CDplayer remote to control the player.

Thanks to jreiss@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu (Joseph W Reiss), we have a safer and simplier way to handle CD-ROM drives which are setup to be a device other than sd1. He did a "strings" on the application, and deduced that there's a CDDrive option. So if your CD-ROM drive is device sd2 (as mine is), you just need to type the following command in a Unix window: dwrite CDPlayer CDDrive /dev/rsd2h (note that the case is significant in the above). If you have it as some other device, just replace the "2" with the correct number. After you've done this, you should be able to just double-click on the CDPlayer application and it will ask that you insert a disk in the *correct* external disk drive. Put in a music disc, and you should be all set. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

In | addition to the tariffs and various border policies, there are also the | various forms of Canadian sales taxes which are so onerous (15% in Ontario, | I think ~19% now in PEI and New Brunswick) they try to apply it to | everything possible. | Just to make things clear, let me say that the federal government modify it's sale tax some years ago. Now, on almost everything, a 7% sale tax is applied. However, this tax is applied only to the new value of an item in the distribution chain. For example, if a manufacturer sells to a distributor a product $100, the distributor will pay $7 for G.S.T. (Goods and Services Tax). Then, suppose the distributor resell the product, says, $200, to a customer, the customer will pay $14 of G.S.T. When the distributor pays his G.S.T. to the government, he can substract the G.S.T. he paid to the manufacturer from the amount he must send to the government. So, in each step, the tax is applied only to the product added value. The government said it would be much more fair to everybody. Then, if, for example, you live in Quebec, suppose you buy the product $200, the total cost, so far including the GST is $214. To this amount, you must add an 8% of provincial sale tax, or $17.12, which bring the product cost to $231.12. While the GST is 7% on goods and services, the PST (Provincial Sale Tax) is 8% on goods and 4% on services, which make things more difficult! Each province has his own tax rate. However, I know that if you, from the US, buy something in Quebec, the PST is not perceived. If you come to Quebec and pay, on some products, the PST, you can ask for a full refund for the tax paid. I must agree that here, in Canada, and more specifically in Quebec, the taxes are very high, and it costs a lot to live here. However, we have some social advantages, like a health insurance, a higher minimum salary basis and so on... It's really difficult to make true comparisons. Hope this is clearer!

The team general manager has to argument with the border police, telling them that, 30 days ago, they didn't know they would do the playoffs!!! Finally, they were allowed to go. I've heard many stories of that kind, showing a clear decision of discouraging canadians to go or make any other activities in the US. I don't know why, however... I could also give you numerous examples of the US protectionism in trade matters. Even there is a free trade treaty in effect for some years now, the lobby from big US companies is very powerful. As a result, specials surcharge taxes are applied to canadian products, which is contrary to the free trade treaty.

I haven't tried this (I write all my PhotoCDs as single session, just so I don't have to deal with this) but the various drives that implement multi-session do it in slightly different ways. Actually... straight from the horse's mouth (actually, PhotoAlbum.app's Help file): "The PhotoCD standard supports appending more images to your PhotoCD using "Multi-session" technology. Unfortunately, multi-session drives are currently not supported in NeXTSTEP 3.1. (Currently, the driver-level changes to support multi-session drives are vendor-specific) We will be looking into providing this in the future.

I am dying to purchase a page layout app for my machine, this deal is terrific, but I'm getting conflicting reports about PasteUp. Everyone can read the above glowing praise for PU (I probably shouldn't use that abbreviation), but I've heard strong negative comments also. The one that stands out in particular in my recollection is the statement that: "PasteUp is useless for anything more than 1 page layouts." This comment was backed by the fact that PasteUp crashed every time my friend attempted to change something in a two (or more) page layout and then save it. When he attempted to reopen the document, it was a garbage file. I am not trying to start inciteful rumors against PasteUp or RightBrain - I really like their products and the presence of their company in the NeXT universe. I also _really_ want to buy PasteUp. However, even the great prices can't justify purchasing a product that won't do what it says it should do. I'll stick with Virtuoso for 1-page layouts if this is the case. (Now there's a hot/exciting/polished product - and in version 1.0 no less!) Anyway, if anyone can assuage my fears, please do so - I am just looking for a reason (other than the $) to buy PasteUp. -tom nawara nirvana@boss.math.uic.edu (NeXT mail)

Date: 17 Jul 1993 06:59:30 GMT Organization: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Distribution: world Message-ID: <22880i$ob8@senator-bedfellow.MIT.EDU> I am sure this has been answered before, but does NEXTSTEP 3.x have a way of printing multiple postscript files at once? I had a need to do this today when I wanted to print out a batch of .ps documents, but quickly realized I had to resort to printing them one by one. I know NS lacked batch printing capabilities in the past, but if they haven't fixed it by now, they should be ashamed of themselves! Batch printing is commonplace enough for it to warrant being included at the NS/OS level (without going into UNIX). Secondly, while I am at it, is there a version of kermit that will support *multiple* sessions? I would like to download files while reading mail, etc, in another terminal window. If not kermit, is there any other public domain terminal software that allows multiple sessions over a modem? Thanks, Eric

I just bought a MiniDock for my Apple PowerBook Duo 230 yesterday along with the SCSI disk adapter which allows the Duo 230 to act like an external HD to another Mac. Since I ftp files to my Mac at work and then transfer them to the NeXT via serial line I thought it might be nice to try the SCSI disk mode on the NeXT. I set the Duo to ID 3, hooked them up, started them both and voila... there was "HD 120" mounted as an Apple volume (nice little icon of a disk with an apple on it). Copying files back and forth was just a matter of dragging them around as usual and GIF and JPG files could be read by ImageViewer right off the Apple drive. Nice. Much faster than a 38400 serial link. My setup is as follows... NeXTcube '040 16/349 NS3.0, PB Duo 230 12/120 Sys7.1.

I think that swapfile compression and its performance boost are well known in this group, as is the fact that once the amount swapped out exceeds the lowat (usually 16 meg) that the swapfile "grows and grows." Although I am interested in the some specifics of swapfile operation, I am most interested in why the swapfile cannot be reduced to the lowat until reboot. If big processes are exited, why can't the swapfile be re-mapped to reclaim the unused memory... How is swapfile memory allocated and reclaimed? Does the lowat do anything else other than at reboot or restart? Is there a way, beyond getting more RAM (which is a given) and running fewer apps, of managing your swapfile? Lastly, what is the optimal lowat size and why? I have heard that the lowat should be roughly equal to the RAM in one's machine. What is the benefit/costs of a lower or higher lowat?

For what it's worth I really don't see it as a big deal not having NS on any SGI computer. This latest offering is not inexpensive when you take into account all kinds of hidden costs, sw costs, maintenance, HD, peripherals, etc... SGI is a marginal company with a niche appeal. Moreover their multimedia advantage is being chipped away rapidly by others, including the Mac and the PC. They don't have the volume, DEC's alpha may very well hurt them badly, and by the time multimedia is actually well-defined micros will be ready to step in. Everything is volume, and ntel has it. The priority should be getting NS running on Intel PC's and supporting as many peripherals as possible. As a simple example this means getting away from this SCSI obsession for CD-ROM drives. It only adds to the cost and provides very limited benefits, if any. Another would be to support the Sound Blaster which is the sound card for PC's. Seamless integration of Windows is not a priority. Let Insignia work on that. However, inexpensive tape backup support would be great. One of the problems with providing a better DOS than DOS and a better Windows than Windows is that the developers then have only an incentive to develop for Windows. This happened in at least one major application which had been slated for OS/2, but that port is now in doubt. Instead the people chose to move more into Windows (since OS/2 ran the product fine as a Windows' app), port to the Mac and to Unix (under X). That product is well known to many of the TeX users here... -- Philip McDunnough philip@nexus.yorku.ca

I have a QIC-something tape drive hooked up to a NeXTstation and after everytime I reboot, I run the following program if I want to use the tapedrive: #include <sys/types.h> #include <nextdev/scsireg.h> main() { long l; l = 512; ioctl(1, MTIOCFIXBLK, &l); } NOTE: this program just does its stuff to stdout, so you need to compile it (I call it tapefix) and then run it with stdout redirected to your tape drive. For me the invocation is: # tapefix > /dev/nrst0 or maybe it's: # tapefix > /dev/rst0 I doubt that it matters which you do, but I seem to recall that last time I did this I had to run tapefix twice, but I don't remember why. I have no idea whether or not this will help Markus, but I doubt that it will hurt. I got the idea by perusing ".h" files and lo it worked for me. --Cliff[ord T.

Although, I must surely admit, I just haven't seen it happen yet I guess, since as all the mail I've received has been mixed in content, but very straightforward in pointing out that this "new" OS I'm trying to use, was WRITTEN ON the machine I'm trying to use it with (a Dell DGX), and so NeXT has had roughly 2+ years to write a f--king serial port driver for this piece of junk. "Woops, heh heh, who would have thought someone would want to use a modem or a printer?

Don't do that! The reason why system files are refered to by <sys/file.h>, and not by "/usr/include/bsd/sys/file.h", is that a properly configured compiler should take care about internal organization of system headers. Theoretically their layout should not be of any concern to you, unless you are installing a new compiler (this is not always attainable ideal :-)). If you want to see what your compiler is trying to include and why try to run a file with a contents like this: #include <sys/file.h> with 'cc -E -v <other flags>' redirecting output somewhere where it could be checked later. There is likely something screwy with your compilation flags, or file you want is nor really <sys/file.h> but <file.h> ("file" above is used a generic name).

You also know that Canon and Canon Hanbai also have some fundamental "future direction" questions to answer for themselves. Moving from black to white hardware is much easier on other shores than here. But Japanese are Japanese, and nothing will change... Not true. It's a question of perspective and timing. It is well- known here that things MUST change. At the low end of the WS market, Compaq and Dell are moving Pentium systems here well ahead of the major domestic PC manufacturers, and the price points are significant, but the market volume is small, and will remain so, for quite some time. At the high end, NEC's MIPS-based WS rollout is hard to resist for _domestic_ brand-name conscious corporate buyers, and Fujitsu's virtual exit from the mainframe market (they stopped buying IBM's OS) probably portends an enhanced emphasis on the SPARC WS market. Taken together, these elements make for a tight market entry that will take a lot more resources than Canon wants to put in place right now.

In addition (I *THINK*) the 24bit color is virtual, ala the original indigo. What you get on screen is an x bit (where x may = 8 bit) dithered version of the actual 24 bit image. In addition, I'm pretty sure there is no graphics hardware for fast 3D graphics. I'm not saying that this isn't a great system (it blows the socks off a NeXTStation). First of all, for more $$ you can get 24 bit color, and for even more $$ you can probably expand it to various levels of hardware assisted 3D graphics performance (though even the in-software graphics pipeline is WAY WAY faster than anyhting you can get out of an '040 or 486, and probably significantly better than anything you can get out of current Pentium systems). The thing to remember is that getting the base system above is like buying a luxury car, just to find out that the seats are plastic, the engine is a four-banger, and the wheels are optional equipment. Yes, you can buy the extras to make it a NICE car, but it WILL cost you extra (but BOY, can you sure make it a NICE NICE car!). As far as a NeXTSTEP port, it would probably be MUCH easier than the 486/Pentium port, because there isn't a jillion different video cards, i/o cards, etc.. The bottleneck might be the vast multitude of graphics hardware which may be running on the system - if NeXTSTEP is to support the SGI graphics hardware through QucikRenderman. Does anyone know if there is some sort of standardized front end to the pipline for the different graphics engines (that NeXT could use)? -SW

(Now there's > a hot/exciting/polished product - and in version 1.0 no less!) I'd like to address your concerns. First, it is certainly true that PasteUp has had a few problems, some crasher bugs, and some, well, bugs. It is a very complex piece of code, and there have been some bugs in it. We're not happy about that, but it seems to be the norm for page layout apps (anybody remember Quark and PageMaker early releases? :-). The main thing that I'd like to emphasize is that we are working very hard and continuously to address any problems that people find in the product, and we maintain it rigorously. We have been known to do maintenance releases for a single bug for some customers. PasteUp 2.0 is a very solid product, and is getting better every day. We recently found a pathological "recompute" situation that caused text editing to be slow; fixing it (by deleting some code!) caused about a 5x speedup for some operations. Second is the "long document" issue. PasteUp has no problems with what I would call "medium-sized" documents, around 30-50 pages. If you get to several hundred pages, it drags quite noticeably. But our customers routinely prepare 30-50 page documents, manuals, brochures, and other many-page documents with no problems. Since we don't currently support automatic generation of tables of contents, indices, or cross references, it's a bit more work to produce something like a manual, but people are doing it, and PasteUp is definitely up to the task. Our 2.0 version is significantly better than the 1.1 version, and we've already fixed some minor things and phased in the performance improvements that I just mentioned into the "Edit 42" maintenance release, which we're sending to new customers as the current version. In response to the concerns you've raised, I've put up a copy of PasteUp on the "sonata.cc.purdue.edu" FTP server in the pub/next/submissions directory. The file name is "PasteUp.tar.Z" and it's binary. The demo will run for 10 minutes, or you can call or Email us for a temporary key that will enable it for a bit longer if you want to put it through its paces. This demo copy is Motorola only; the fat version is quite a bit bigger and inconvenient for us to upload. To paraphrase Ford, "Have you driven PasteUp lately?" Give it a try. I think you'll like it. And if you want to take advantage of our 50% off sale, hurry, because it's only through the end of the month. -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Electronic Frontier Foundation, member #054

Yes, it's dithered 8-bit, and yes, there's no hardware Z-buffer (according to the traffic in c.s.sgi.hardware and .misc). I'm getting promo lit, I'll post summaries when I get 'em.

This is indeed true, and Indy is supposed to be binary-compatible with the entire SGI line, right on up to the Onyx rockets; so you can develop things and later run them on some maximum hardware. HOWEVER... 1) there was an estimate in one of the SGI newsgroups within the last few days for a "usable" Indy system: (bear with me, I'm quoting from memory) base Indy system + 24-bit color, 32MB RAM, 1.2GB HD, 19" monitor = $11,500. Much less than what NeXTdimensions went for new, I think, but not cheap, either. I don't know if the "Indy Video" board is included in that estimate (no video out?). 2) If you think NeXTSTEP apps are costly, try pricing GL apps. Again, lots of nifty tools are bundled, and this is great (I want to try the games on the free demo CD!!!), and there's apparently lots of PD apps and applets out there, but beyond that the costs balloon. (I'm not speaking from direct experience, but I was at the SGI Expo in San Jose in May, just before the NWE :-)). Some 3D graphics software retails in the <$10K range. 3) there are apparently yearly maintenance fees and software licenses to be considered as well: one figure mentioned was up to 10% of the purchase price! This suggests to me (and I'm willing to be convinced) that entering the SGI world is still prohibitively expensive for individuals, whereas the NeXT world is approachable - even the fabled NeXTdimensions can be had with some strain. Nevertheless, if you have the cash, a 100 MHz CPU is more better than a 33Mhz one! I certainly wouldn't turn one away if offered! > As far as a NeXTSTEP port, it would probably be MUCH easier than the 486/Pentium > port, because there isn't a jillion different video cards, i/o cards, etc..

As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, SGI's new GUI sounds very NeXTSTEP-like. (Imitation as the sincerest form of flattery?) This might be a strong disincentive to port NeXTSTEP, especially since SGI claims that they will be adding the Indigo Magic environment to their entire line next year.

And can I run NextStep without specific drivers for the controller? How is your experience with the Viper? Are 16mb enough to run at reasonable speed?

Message-ID: <22gujt$1k3@hermes.athena.com> Hello, On August 4, 1992, Athena Design released Mesa. In the year since its introduction, Athena Design has upgraded Mesa 5 times adding new features such as 3D graphs, a BASIC-like scripting language, Palletized spreadsheet and graph objects, SQL database access and manipulation, and more. Athena Design has shown its commitment to NEXTSTEP by shipping Mesa as the first available NS/Intel application. Mesa is now the best-selling spreadsheet for NEXTSTEP and it's time to kick back, and throw a party! On Wednesday, August 4, 1993, at 7pm, the Second Annual We Really Did It: Mesa Release Party will commence. It will be at the Athena Design offices at 17 Saint Mary's Court, Boston. Please come. Please bring friends. We will have food, beverages, and fun. Please celebrate with us. Please RSVP to party@athena.com or call 617.734.6372 (MESA). Thanks and we'll see you there! David Directions: T (Subway for non-Bostonians): Take the MBTA Green "C" line to the Saint Mary's Street stop. This is the first above-ground stop on the "C" line. Get off the T and walk across Beacon street. The first street on your right is Saint Mary's Street. Walk down Saint Mary's street until you get to the first alley on your left.

We fixxed the keyboard jumber and booted off the floppy just fine. It loaded the sytem on the harddisk and rebooted. While it was rebooting it said somthing to the effect that it was probing for the mouse and didn't find it. It then came all the way up to the panal that asks what kind of machine you have, but we had no mouse or keboard. If you boot in single user mode, in UNIX, we can use the keyboard, but one we get up in NEXTSTEP it doesnt work any more. ANY IDEAS!!!!

The Default ones look like crud, the dots in the : half-tone patterns are huge-ola. You can play with the setscreen command. To do this you need to hack the postcript code. The default screen frequency on the Next is 50 or 60 dpi. This produces a dither cell that is 8 pixels on a side. The pixels however when printed are much larger than 1/400 of an inch, so the light grey part of the picture is darker than it should be, and blacks are blotted out. By hacking the setscreen command, you are trading fewer grey tones for higher resolution. I find that I like the results best with either an 80 dpi or a 100 dpi resolution. With the latter, I will run the bitmap through a contrast enhancement filter first. The hack: 100 0 {180 mul cos exch 180 mul cos add 2 div} setscreen Put this line after the scale and translate commands. The first two parameters are screen frequency, and screen angle.

I think the caching algorithm for the I-node information won't allow it. You have the advantage that swapping runs on a common fast file system instead of a raw device, which spares you the expense of a fixed disk area unusable for any other purpose. Unfortunately, it is less desirable if the machine is never switched off and/or lots a misbehavin' processes suck memory. You can declare a high water mark, which will guarantee your swapfile never grows beyond bounds. But this means a process gets stuck sometimes. Too much of low water means your disk space is wasted, too few means you spend precious time expanding the swap file into less optimized , probably far off, regions of the file system. The additional head movement won't speed things up. Upon installation BuildDisk allocates contiguous space to the swap file. This advantage will be lost when lowering the low water mark. Things can be faster if you distribute swap space over two or more physical disks. Allocating less swap space than physical memory could lead to rare events that a process doesn't fit into swap space although it fitted into main memory. -- Peter Nitezki | Nitezki@NiDat.sub.org # Blessed art thou who knoweth Staarenbergstr. 44 | Tel.: +49 7251 62495 # not about the pleasure and D-76703 Kraichtal | Fax : +49 7251 69215 # delight of being hooked GERMANY | NeXTmail welcome !!! # up to the Net.

One comment often made is that the swapfile will never shrink. This is not true, at least on a 3.0 station. When I run a music editor with an 80 MB file, do _absolutely_nothing_else_, save, (make tea) and quit, a terrible rattling noise goes on for about two minutes, during which the machine does not respond to anything. Afterwards the swapfile is back at 16MB. Note hat this only seems to work if no other process allocated memory in the meantime - even the scrollbackbuffer of Terminal. It is thus of very limited practical relevance. Geert Jan van Oldenborgh.

Most of the problem was the cables for the on board serial port were crossed. (Thanks Mitch). Well, we got it installed, the configure app came up, and we had keyboard, and mouse!! any way even though we were running a serial mouse, the configure app had ps2mouse selected. We figured "Its working good like this lets leave it alone" BIG MISTAKE! After a reboot, it came up fine except no more mouse. Well later in the evening we got another message from Mitch message detailing his gateway installation that said something like this: PICKING A MOUSE Although I have a Logitech bus mouse, NEXTSTEP seems to want you to use a PS/2 mouse instead. When you get to the Configure application during the installation, only the PS/2 mouse appears in the window, even though NEXTSTEP knows you have a bus mouse and is letting you use it. (The same thing is true if you're using a serial mouse; NEXTSTEP still only shows the PS/2 mouse in Configure.) You *can*, however, add the bus or serial mouse: click the Add button, and Bus Mouse and Serial Mouse appear in a new, bigger list of choices. You can also remove the PS/2 mouse while you're at it. If you don't choose the kind of mouse you're using in Configure (and you're not using a PS/2 mouse), your mouse won't work when you finish the installation. ====================================================== Well the same thing goes with serial mice, but we already screwed up. Does any one know how to reboot the NEXTSTEP so that it starts up with the configure panal like it does on the inital startup instead of going into NEXTSTEP. Maybe we could have mouse control, and reset it to a serial mouse.. If not, does anyone know what files could be edited by hand to set up the serial mouse insted of the PS2 mouse. Thanks Rick

I've been keeping my own list of problems and solutions for an earlier Gateway 66V (one from February, before they started using the new motherboards with Pentium upgrade sockets). Earlier, I read that there was going to be an NS/I installation FAQ, but I haven't seen it. Here are my updated notes, for what they're worth. I've also included the message from Paul Sears about setting the PS/2 keyboard jumper, which is apparently necessary for the newer 66Vs. Mitch Gass mitch@mills.edu ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NS/I Installation Adventures on a Gateway 4DX2-66V Thanks to Lusty Diana and to everyone else who offered suggestions. For the benefit of anyone else trying to install NS/I on a Gateway, here's what's happened during my installation. THE SYSTEM Gateway 4DX2-66V (February 1993). It has the motherboard with 4 72-pin SIMM sockets and no Pentium socket. 16MB of RAM ATI Graphics Ultra Pro VL-bus video card (see below) Phoenix 80486 ROM BIOS PLUS Version 0.10 GLB01 Adaptec 1542B SCSI controller with latest BIOS (see below) Maxtor MXT-1240S 1.2GB SCSI hard drive Apple CD SC CD-ROM drive (and, later, an AppleCD 300) UPGRADING THE ATI GRAPHICS ULTRA PRO I upgraded the Ultra Pro shipped with the Gateway (which had only 1MB of VRAM and the older RAMDAC) with an extra megabyte of VRAM and a new RAMDAC. This upgrade is available from Gateway for $125. It turns out that the instructions sent by Gateway for upgrading the RAMDAC were wrong. There are two different sockets on the Ultra Pro for RAMDACs, one for a rectangular chip with two rows of pins, and another for a square chip with lots of pins. The instructions assume that your 1MB Ultra Pro came with the RAMDAC with two rows of pins, but mine had a square RAMDAC in the same socket that's used for the new RAMDAC that comes with the upgrade. (According to Gateway, the square RAMDAC included with the upgrade *is* an upgrade, not just an equivalent chip, so I needed to replace the old RAMDAC with the new one.) At first, I couldn't figure out how to get out the square RAMDAC. I called Gateway, and they suggested getting a dental scribe (the kind a dental hygienist uses to clean teeth) and use it to pry up the corners. (I found a scribe at a big Pay Less drug store nearby.) The scribe works, but you need to be *very* careful not to get the scribe under the pins at the corners; it's very easy to bend the pins. CONFIGURING THE ADAPTEC 1542B Gateway sells the Adaptec 1542B SCSI controller for $210, which seems like a reasonable price. (It includes a driver kit. You don't need the kit for NEXTSTEP, but it comes in handy if you have a DOS partition and want to run DOS/Windows once in a while. Note that the kit does *not* include the driver for CD-ROM drives under DOS. The DOS CD-ROM driver is included in Adaptec's EZ-SCSI package, which is available as an upgrade from Adaptec (for about half the street price) if you already have the kit from Gateway. If your CD-ROM drive supports PhotoCDs, hold out for the new version of EZ-SCSI--which is supposed to be out by the end of July--that includes PhotoCD support.) When I configured the controller, I used the ASCII version of the NeXTanswers note about the 1542B, which doesn't have a lot of information about the jumper settings. Be sure to get either the PostScript or the fax version of the note, which include illustrations of the correct jumper settings. To use a SCSI disk larger than a gigabyte, the NeXTanswers note says that you need to get the BIOS upgrade for the 1542B from Adaptec. (This upgrade is apparently only necessary for the 1542B; the 1542C supports disks larger than a gigabyte). Getting the upgrade turned out to be easy, fast, and free: I just called Adaptec Technical Support at 1-800-959-7274 and told them what I needed. I got the upgrade the next day. However, the upgrade doesn't do the trick. With extended translation enabled (the mechanism that Adaptec uses to break the DOS 1GB limit for hard disks), NEXTSTEP will not install. Without extended translation enabled (which the NeXTanswers note shows as the correct jumper setting), NEXTSTEP can only use the first 1024MB on the disk. Doing a low-level reformat of the disk with extended translation enabled, as suggested by Adaptec technical support, did not solve the problem. NeXT technical support now knows about the problem, but they don't have a solution. After hearing about the many problems people have with SCSI termination and cabling, I decided to play it safe and get an active terminator (the kind required by the SCSI-2 specification, but hard to find) to connect to the (external) CD-ROM drive, as well as a SCSI-2 cable. (My hard drive, a Maxtor MXT-1240S, includes an active terminator, and I suspect any drive labeled SCSI-2 does, too.) I got both the terminator and cable from CS Electronics at (714) 259-9100 for what seemed like reasonable prices (about $35 for each). Service was quite fast: I got the order (which included a custom cable) in 3 days. Note that if you have both internal and external SCSI devices connected to the Adaptec, you need to remove the Adaptec's built-in terminators (three identical "chips", each with a single row of pins), as described in the Adaptec manual. A little screwdriver with a thin, narrow blade will do the trick. I used an old Apple CD SC (Apple's original CD-ROM drive) for installation, and it worked fine. However, I needed to disable Sync Negotiation on the Adaptec, as recommended by the NeXTanswers note. With an AppleCD 300 (which I got later), I could enable Synch Negotiation. If you're shopping for a new CD-ROM drive, you should definitely consider a double-speed drive like the AppleCD 300; the installation with the older CD SC was *very* slow. CONFIGURING THE SERIAL PORTS As shipped, my Gateway has a Microsoft serial mouse that connects to a 9-pin connector on the back labeled COM2. NEXTSTEP requires the serial mouse to be connected to COM1. Here's the story: the 9-pin connector, as shipped, is connected to COMA (one of two serial connectors, along with COMB, on the motherboard). Althought the Phoenix BIOS Setup program allows you to specify the port connected to COMA and the port connected to COMB, COMA can only be configured as COM1 or COM3, while COMB can only be configured as COM2 or COM4. This means that, to make the 9-pin connector COM1, I needed to --switch the cables connected to COMA and COMB, so that COMA is connected to the 9-pin connector and COMB is connected to the 25-pin connector --use the Phoenix BIOS setup program to make COMA COM1 and use IRQ 4, and to make COMB COM2 and use IRQ 3 --change the switches on the back of my Gateway Telepath modem (formerly set to COM1) to make it COM3 and use IRQ 5. (Note that I couldn't use COM4 for the modem, because COM4 is apparently used by the Gateway video.) OTHER ROM BIOS CHANGES To install NEXTSTEP, the 3-1/2" floppy drive must be drive A. On my computer, this meant switching the floppy drive cables. There is conflicting information in NeXTanswers about whether the 5-1/4" drive can remain installed. It can on my system. IRQ CONFLICTS As shipped, the Gateway uses IRQ 1 and 2. NEXTSTEP requires you to use IRQ 3 for COM2 and IRQ 4 for COM1. This left IRQ 5 for the Gateway Telepath modem (the highest IRQ it can use). The Intel EtherExpress 16 Ethernet board I bought with the Gateway used IRQ 11. Because NEXTSTEP requires the Adaptec SCSI controller to use IRQ 11, I had to use another IRQ for the EtherExpress, but which one? The only other choices that that the EtherExpress setup software offers (besides IRQ 10; see below) are IRQs 3, 4, and 5, all of which are taken. A possible solution--which I'll try tomorrow--is to use a Logitech bus mouse, which will free up one of the COM ports and its IRQ for the modem. In the end, I was able to use IRQ 10 for the EtherExpress (I don't know what changed, but it works now with IRQ 10); I got the Logitech bus mouse (quite comfortable; it comes in right- and left-hand versions) and put it at IRQ 5; I got a new and much better modem (a Practical Peripherals 14400FX internal modem) and put it at COM1 and IRQ 4 (for which I had to disable the onboard COM1 with the Gateway's BIOS setup program). That leaves COM2 and IRQ 3 for connecting my Apple LaserWriter (today's project). CREATING A DOS PARTITION When NEXTSTEP asked whether I wanted to reserve a partition on the hard drive for DOS, I said yes. I later used the DOS format /v:MS-DOS /s command to format the partition for DOS. The /s switch makes the partition a bootable DOS disk. The label you give with the /v switch appears as the name of the DOS partition in the NEXTSTEP workspace. I then copied over all the files from my old DOS drive to the new partition using the Windows File Manager. When I booted DOS and Windows, I got the message that the Windows swap file was corrupted (with a mysterious message about the drive having the wrong format, even though I just formatted it). The easy way out is to open the Windows EMM386 control panel and get rid of the swap file (which you certainly don't need, now that you've bought all that extra memory for NEXTSTEP :-) PICKING A MOUSE AND CHOOSING MONITOR SETTINGS Although I have a Logitech bus mouse, NEXTSTEP seems to want you to use a PS/2 mouse instead. When you get to the Configure application during the installation, only the PS/2 mouse appears in the window, even though NEXTSTEP knows you have a bus mouse and is letting you use it. (The same thing is true if you're using a serial mouse; NEXTSTEP still only shows the PS/2 mouse in Configure.) You *can*, however, add the bus or serial mouse: click the Add button, and Bus Mouse and Serial Mouse appear in a new, bigger list of choices. You can also remove the PS/2 mouse while you're at it. If you don't choose the kind of mouse you're using in Configure (and you're not using a PS/2 mouse), your mouse won't work when you finish the installation.

Sears) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.sysadmin,comp.sys.next.misc,comp.sys.next.hardware,com p.sys.next.bugs Subject: BUG FIX: Gateway2000 incompatability fix for model 4DX2-66V Date: 2 Jul 1993 23:45:26 GMT Organization: University of Houston Lines: 65 NNTP-Posting-Host: thanatos.egr.uh.edu (The rtf version includes a PostScript document that has a diagram of the location jumper that needs to be changed) Gateway2000 4DX2-66V Fix This the "official" fix from Gateway2000 concerning the problem with installing and running NEXTSTEP for Intel Processors version 3.1. The cause of the problem was that the PS2Mouse driver and the PS2Keyboard driver would not work with the newer versions of the BIOS that Micronics started shipping with a revised system board. Mainly it concerned the new Gateway ROM BIOS PLUS Version 0.10 GJX30-05E (but it also works for the earlier GJX30 versions). For NEXTSTEP for Intel Processors Release 3.1 to install correctly, the new Gateways V-Series systems must have the PS2 style keyboard jumper ENABLED. This jumper is not documented in the Gateway2000 Manuals as the PS2 style keyboard jumper, instead it is listed as W7 - "Reserved". Gateway ships these systems with the jumper disabled, and usually recommends leaving the jumper disabled for use with system and keyboard drivers. However, ou must change the W7 jumper to the "on" position (you will need to find a jumper to use or locate a spare one). The W7 jumper is located right next to the W40 jumper on the motherboard. See the diagram below. Micronics (Motherboard OEM for Gateway) is currently running NEXTSTEP on a new Gateway with the W7 jumper changed. This setup has worked with both serial and bus mice. NeXT's Quality Assurance group is testing this fix now. [This has been tested and verified at the University of Houston with the GJX30-01D verion of the BIOS.] **** The PS2Mouse driver must be loaded for this to work. If [and only if!!] you followed my earlier installation notes, you were told to remove the PS2Mouse driver from the file /usr/Devices/System.config/Instance0.table which was in the line "Boot Drivers". A simple way to do this is to run the Configure.app located in /NextApps and click on "save". The configure.app will automatically add the PS2Mouse driver to the Instance0.table file. Powerdown, then add the jumper and reboot. No need to mess with the turbo switch or anything, it should come up in NEXTSTEP automatically. To quickly verify if your keyboard will work, check if the NUM-Lock LED is off. If it is not, then your keyboard WILL NOT work. The W7 jumper is located next to the first LocalBus slot near the right-back end of the system board. This diagram is for the Desktop configuration only. The jumper may be located in a different location if you have a tower case. -- Paul S.

I'll just step in here and defend Jon for a moment by saying: 1) He always has the best of intentions, and certainly did not mean to demean any of our fine friends at NeXT; 2) Avie's JOB is to be in charge of porting (you could look it up); 3) Almost everyone at NeXT reads the Net; a "quiet few" write back. None have written to Jon complaining about his comments. The fact is, Avie would probably be responsible for ports to other platforms at this point. It's understandable why NeXT wouldn't want to spread him too thin or have too many ports going simultaneously. -- Gregory H.

Eric, First of all, it is rarely if ever appropriate to post the contents of someone's Email to you (the helpful person at NeXT who answered your query). Second, Canon has traditionally had rights to the "Pacific" market, including Asia, Japan, Singapore, and probably Australia and New Zealand. If you look carefully at your globe, you'll see that Australia is not part of Europe, nor even particularly nearby. They are different markets, and Canon will not (as far as I know) be participating in the European market.

Keywords: text adventures interactive fiction unnkulian unventure games [New this time: Unnkulia Zero is now available for Macintoshes!] The Unnkulian Unventure Series Adventure Games for the 90's Remember the good old days, when adventure games challenged you with great puzzles and evocative descriptions without resorting to any graphics at all? We really miss that emphasis on gameplay rather than glitz, so we've decided to write our own adventure games along the lines of the early text games we liked so much. If you're looking for top-quality interactive fiction comparable to 1980's commercial offerings, check out the Unnkulian Unventure series, available from an archive site near you! In _Unnkulian Underworld: The Unknown Unventure_ you play the part of Kuulest's slave, and must recover the Orb of Studosity from the evil Unnkulians. Kuulest, the old geezebag, has died and left you with nothing to go on but a cryptic message about saving the planet. You'll encounter amazing Acme products, the infamous Guardian, those witty creatures known as Drolls, a giant beaver, and even the Dread Unnkulian Warrior. <Gasp!> In _Unnkulian Unventure II: The Secret of Acme_ your adventure continues as you try to create some good press for yourself -- wouldn't want to fade into anonymous obscurity, now would you? Along the way, you'll find the answers to these compelling questions, and more: o What happened to the Unnkulians? o Why are Acme products so bad? o What is this cheez stuff, really? Plus, you'll get to explore Dawg Rock, a Duhdist Retreat, Acme's clandestine prototypes laboratory, and even pay a visit to Acme HQ. In _Unnkulia One-Half: The Salesman Triumphant_, you'll play the role of a down-and-out Acme salesman, forced to work out of the Golden Dragon Inn, dangerously near Dread Unnkulia. Will you accumulate enough loot in this frightful backwater berg to turn your fortunes in your favor? And, in _Unnkulia Zero: The Search for Amanda_, will you, the Valley King's most trusted warrior, rescue his Lady Amanda from the gruesome clutches of the evil Unnkulians? Along the way to victory (or, <shudder>, defeat!), you will: o Find out about the ancient days of the Valley, o Meet the King's faithful (but not so bright) Valley Patrol, o Explore *beautiful* Lake Draounheer, o Discover the ancient burial ground of your ancestors, o Become frustrated with the pesky Stoll and his Stoll Bridge, and, of course, o Meet that wondrously wacky Wowsa Willy! The Unnkulian Unventures have already gotten rave reviews from numerous adventure game connoisseurs around the world, so why not give them a try? The games are available for FTP from the if-archive at ftp.gmd.de. (Note that the site wuarchive.wustl.edu keeps a mirror of the if-archive in the mirrors directory.)

The tricky bit is that before you can play the games, you need to get the TADS run-time for your machine. Fortunately, this isn't hard to do. Just grab the TADS executable package for your machine from the if-archive: Atari ST/TT/Falcon: if-archive/programming/tads/atari.tads2exe.arc Sun Sparcstation (SunOS): if-archive/programming/tads/sparc.tads2exe.tar.Z Sun 3: if-archive/programming/tads/sun3.tads2exe.tar.Z DECstation (MIPS) running Ultrix: if-archive/programming/tads/decmips.tads2exe.tar.Z SGI (Iris/Indigo) running Irix: if-archive/programming/tads/sgi-irix.tads2exe.tar.Z Linux (386): if-archive/programming/tads/linux.tads2exe.tar.Z NeXT: if-archive/programming/tads/NeXT.tads2exe.tar.Z Amiga, other Unix: In the works!

NOTE: The source to TADS 2 is not distributable. However, if your machine isn't on the list yet, and you would like to volunteer to port TADS 2 to it, send email about it to Mike Roberts <mroberts@hinrg.starconn.com>. Porting to Unix-like systems is fairly trivial. *-----------------------------------------------------------------------------* Unnkulian Unventures I and II are shareware ($10 registration fee each); registering gets you spiffy maps and agony-sparing hint sheets.

It is quite versatile, and the determination of the best screen for a given picture is still largely a matter of intuition/trial-and-error (there is no surefire algorithm). Since the screen uses DPS, you can also use setscreen to affect the way the screen dithers images. (Some people using scientific apps have complained about wanting to turn off dithering of colors in graphs and so forth. This can be done with the setscreen operator.) See the Red book, _Adobe Accurate Screens_, _Digital Halftoning_, and many recent theses for more than you ever wanted to know about the esoteric art of screens. However, for _most_ pictures (not all--no single algorithm works best for all pictures), I find that the best looking results on the NLP are achieved by scaling up the number of dots in the picture by 400/current DPI with a good scaling algorithm, setting the DPI to 400, error-diffusing the picture to black and white, and printing the error-diffused result. The halftone screen will, of course, not matter if you use this algorithm since half tone screens don't affect black and white images. The same goes for other non-continuous tone printers with 400 replaced by whatever the appropriate DPI is for that printer. This will produce especially good results if you are concerned with small details or banding. Also, note that the gamma of the screen and the printer are not the same. Therefore, as I am sure you have already noticed, an intermediate gray value on the screen probably won't look the same as when printed (this is supposed to be better for some images under 3.x). Depending on the screen or error-diffusion used, your grays may look lighter or darker than you might expect. This is most easily fixed with a gamma correction filter, although this is not the "best" way to do it if you are concerned with ultra-high image quality (the best way is to play around with the setscreen operator or hand code an error-diffusion to come up with an algorithm which implicitly incorporates your desired gamma). -ccwf Charles C. Fu Computer Consultant and "Imaging Expert" :-) a principle author of Pixel Magician author of Pixel Magician's error-diffusion routines P.S. Although the algorithm above will produce fantastic looking results from a linotronic, the linotronic output is not the final result. What happens to lino output usually destroys all high res information so that error-diffusion, while usually not harmful in this case, will result in needless extra CPU time for the printer. This wasn't what you were asking, but I thought it might be interesting, and I wanted to provide an example where the above algorithm wasn't the way to go. -- _______________________________________________________________________________ Charles C.

I believe the $299 evaluation price goes until July 31. Since you're at an edu address, I presume you'd also qualify for a $249 price for the user+developer bundle. The two bundles differ a little, other than in price: With the edu bundle, you cannot sell software you develop commercially, but you get a free upgrade to 3.2 when it ships. With the evaluation bundle, you can sell whatever you want, but there's no free upgrade. > 2) When does this offer expire? Full user system, full developer system. All docs for the user system, on-line docs only for the dev tools (and a coupon for 50% off the printed docs if you want them). The evaluation bundle also includes a (very good) book on NS programming. > 3) Is Nextstep stable (basically bug free) on 80x86? Yes. Remember its version 3.1 of the OS. The single major problem that's been reported is problems with the serial drivers; that's being worked on. Note however that installation requirements are pretty stiff; once you get it working, it works well. Mileage on getting to work in the first place has varied. You shouldn't have any problems if you get one of the pre-installed systems from Dell, Compaq, or several other vendors. > 4) How do I contact Next to order? 1-800-TRY-NEXT is a good place to start. > 5) What does $299.00 get me, X-Windows, TCPIP, NFS? > or what does it not get me? You get all the standard Unix tools, including TCP/IP, but not X windows. There are several commercial and PD X windows solutions for NS; I'm not sure what their status with respect to NS/I is. > 6) What is the price of a complete packages? I believe > it is referred to as the development package. The $299 is for the complete package (as is the $249 edu). Basically, there's a User system and a developer package. I think the street price for both is around $2,000 (roughly $500 user + $1,00 developer; I could be off by a couple hundred, though). So either of the bundles is an amazing deal. -- - Stefano Pagiola Food Research Institute, Stanford University spagiola@leland.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged) spagiola@FRI-nxt-Pagiola.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged)

I recall pledging a contribution to the cause, but apparently the movement never got off the ground. From recent communications with Allen B., it seems like space is still a problem. I'm still willing to contribute to buy more disk space - is there a collection underway that isn't being publicized? If not, can we get things rolling again and restore "free breathing" to the wheezing nova? If 50 people contributed $20 apiece that would buy a used 1 GB drive. I personally get at least that much benefit from nova (or at least I used to before it stopped working) since I'm not on the net and can't access it via ftp.

While this is quite true, I would suggest that the user tell NeXT that they will not buy into NS/I as long as NeXT continues this crazy obssesion with SCSI CD-ROM's, while supporting IDE LB hard drives.

Man of these cd-roms need special drivers, different when run under windows, OS/2 or MSDOS. Thus, next would have to have different drivers (something they are sorely lacking now!) for these different cd-roms. far simpler to just use scsi disks which don't need separate drivers. It's annoying that the cheapo cd-roms don't work with 3.1, but hey, most or the ide cd roms seems to be pretty crummy, none that I've heard of being as nice the cd 300. Of course, the same problem works with scsi. There's a well defined protocal from scsi device to the scsi card, but you need drivers for the damn scsi cards! That's the reason that not many scsi cards are supported, but lots of scsi DEVICES are. -nick

He was very helpful and obviously was knowledgable about NEXTSTEP, which was a welcome surprise. We went through several conversations before agreeing to buy an Intel GX Professional workstation with NS/I preinstalled. We'd made it clear how critical it was that we get a machine before the weekend, so we could use it on a project over the weekend. He assured us numerous times that he would be available for technical support on Friday 23 July. The machine shipped overnight and arrived on Friday 23 July. I was dismayed to discover that there were no owner's manuals or other documentation, no warranty cards, no NOTHING other than the Intel box and a bag with some Intel DOS driver floppies. Mr. Magnusson had told me to call if we had ANY problems. One of the reasons we agreed to buy the machine was his promises to help out and his concern for making sure we were happy with the machine. He had even offered to include an Adaptec 1542C card as a loaner just to make sure everything worked smoothly. We were impressed. We did have problems. The damn machine wouldn't boot. It kept hanging when getting to the Ethernet card (we had bought an Intel EtherExpress card from Magnusson and had him install it). During the NEXTSTEP boot process it would say "Press Control-C" to skip past the network, or whatever the message is. Control-C didn't work. NOTHING worked. So I removed the EtherExpress card and tried rebooting. Now I got system panics and "type 'c' to continue" -- which I did, and it only resulted in more "type 'c' to continue" messages. Well, we called Alpine Computing, and guess what. Mr. Magnusson is on vacation. AFTER HE TOLD US HE WOULD BE THERE FRIDAY TO HELP US OUT. We left messages, we had other people at Alpine leave messages at his home. No luck. We have yet to hear from him. I asked to speak to the manager. He's out too. Something about some state holiday in Utah (Pioneer Day??). And guess what. No-one else at Alpine knows ANYTHING about NEXTSTEP. He also told us we were buying a 340MB SCSI hard disk. That's what it says on the receipt. Well, it's a 329MB drive. That might not mean much of a difference to you, but with NEXTSTEP I need all the room I can get, and he should have told me the real capacity. (I know all about formatted vs unformatted -- I was led to believe it was a real 340MB formatted capacity). We are not happy with Alpine so far. We feel like we got a demo model. We feel like we were lied to. I regret not buying a NeXTstation Turbo Color. They work, Intel equipment doesn't. Sigh. -- brian dear coconut computing, inc. la jolla, ca

I cannot see much logic in it. Its true, sometimes you can see that your swapfile shrinks a little bit (a few MB only). Most of the time this wouldn't happen at all. Do some experiment: Swap away that your swapfile grows. Then log out, go down to the console, thus leaving NeXTSTep and the windowserver. Become root and start killing almost all processes: Still your swapfile is as big (or almost as big) as it was before. It seems that once the lowat has been reached, the swapfile starts growing and growing, even if there is not much swapping taking place. A hiwat doesn't help much: It just crashes the machine :-( I have the impression, that compressed swapfiles are (sometimes) worse: While the compression does indeed prevent swapfile growth for a longer time, once the limit is reached it grows even faster. It seems that there is some kind of 'memory-leak' in the swapfile implementation.

Now that you have destroyed the file, the workspace can not find it, and thus complains that the program can not be executed. You need to change the appropriate value in the defaults database (note that each user has their own defaults database). Start up Terminal.app to get a Unix window, and then type in the command: dread Workspace LaunchPaths If you get back the following: Workspace LaunchPaths /usr/local/bin/DiskEjectFix.daemon then you only have one program in the list of things to execute at login. In that case, type the following command: dremove WorkSpace LaunchPaths You may already have more than one program in that list. If you do, they will be separated by ";"'s. Eg: Workspace LaunchPaths /usr/local/bin/DiskEjectFix.daemon;/Other.one In that case you need to write a new value of the default with the DiskEject daemon removed. To match the above example, for instance, you would have to type: dwrite Workspace LaunchPaths /Other.one It wouldn't surprise me if there are easier ways to do this, but I don't know if you have the programs which would make it easy. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

I have tried many many different settings for the getty process -- using /dev/ttyda and /dev/ttydfa, using std.2400, std.19200, D19200, etc., etc. When I attempt to connect to the modem via tip or kermit, the process hangs as soon as it (supposedly) connects to the modem, and I get no response from the modem, and I have to reboot the machine to kill the tip or kermit process!

There is little chance you can use a NeXT color monitor with about anything else. This is a fix scan monitor adapted for the specification of NeXT. Almost every PC need to work with a multi-scan monitor, since usually, they first boot in VGA type resolution, and then later switch to higher resolution. NeXT color monitor doesn't support that and it does not support VGA resolution for sure. On a mac you would have to find a graphic board that fits exactly the scanning of your monitor (refresh speed, Horizontal an Vertical sync, blanking). Not if you decide to buy such a board, try it before with your monitor, don't buy it just on specification, this can be very, very tricky...

This information is rather vital for some of my uses. Up to now there was an environment variabiable "Workspace" which was set in the first case, but not in the second. It looks like that it vanished. Does anybody know if there is some other clever way to get this information, or I have to write a special program which will muck with an environment and which I will have to hook up with 'dwrite Workspace LaunchPaths'? Also it is me unable to find a proper magic sequence or vt100 emulation in a new version of Terminal is terminally broken? Keypad used to send various escape sequences, but now most of them seems to be gone, and what remains is in wrong positions. I do need a stuff like PF11 when communicating with some machines! For now I went back to Terminal.app from 3.0, which restored an order, but if I would be starting with 3.1 I would be rather unhappy. Or I really do miss something? I wonder what is a purpose of introducing new bugs in a stuff which used to work without any special problems, especially when old, reported bugs seem to linger for years.

This strings can more complicated, including requests for a pause when going through switchboard, and the like. For tip this requires a cooperation of your sysadmin, but it is possible to add in /etc/remote something in this style: this|this corp:\ :cm=atz\r:pn=5555555:hd:tc=dial38400: that|other place:\ :cm=at&k0&n14&m0\r:pn=6666666,:hd:tc=tip38400: If a number is @ then a file phones is searched (from PHONES env variable, default /etc/phones).

Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc,comp.sys.next.sysadmin From: meyergru@Informatik.TU-Muenchen.DE (Uwe Meyer-Gruhl) Subject: sethostid() patch for NS3.1 (black) Followup-To: comp.sys.next.sysadmin Originator: meyergru@hpradigc.informatik.tu-muenchen.de Sender: news@Informatik.TU-Muenchen.DE (USENET Newssystem) Organization: Technische Universitaet Muenchen, Germany Date: Mon, 26 Jul 1993 10:35:22 GMT Message-ID: <1993Jul26.103522.21490@Informatik.TU-Muenchen.DE> Hi Folks, a while back, I posted this article (just to save some typing here): +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Some people have asked me how the mentioned patch to get more than 16 buffers is done. Well, hackers, first I should note that /sdmach is _not_ stripped (sic!). Need I say more? The rest is up to you, happy disassembling... Nah, just kidding (but not quite, I just don't expect everybody to do things like that, even if they're possible). So here we go: The following output was generated by applying 'cmp -l /sdmach.old /sdmach': sdmach.binpatch: ---- CUT HERE ---- 334079 166 116 334080 20 161 334081 43 116 334082 303 161 334083 4 116 334084 11 161 334085 70 116 334086 24 161 579602 0 1 579607 240 217 579608 214 206 604776 0 200 ---- CUT HERE ---- The patch consists of three parts. From offset 334079 to 334086 there were instructions that set the number of buffers to 16(decimal). Those instructions are NOPed out. The WORD at offset 604773 is the number of buffers, which is set to 128(decimal) in this case, so that 1 MByte of buffers are allocated. Only the last byte (604776) has been changed. The third part is the table entry at 579602, which enables the otherwise nonfunctional 'sethostid()' call. This patch has been posted a while ago by Eric P. Scott, if I remember right. For those of you who want to patch /sdmach by means of 'Moni' or 'HexEditor', be warned. The offsets from 'cmp -l' start with '1', not '0'. The byte values given are in octal. For those with less trust in their capabilities (or simply lazy people), here is the 'binpatch' program, which has been posted a while ago together with the 'lpd' 38400 baud patch by Marc A. Ullman. binpatch.c: ---- CUT HERE ---- /* * binpatch.c - apply output of "cmp -l" to patch a binary file * * This simple program takes the output from "cmp -l" and applies it as a set * of patches to a given input file. The input file itself is modified and no * backup file is created. Thus if a backup of the original is desired (highly * recommended), create it before using binpatch. An example of its use * follows: * * Assume that you have the file "lpd.diff" that resulted from: * % cmp -l lpd.broken lpd.fixed > lpd.diff * * Now do the following to apply the patch: * % cp -p lpd lpd.broken * % binpatch -f lpd.diff lpd * * lpd will now be identical to lpd.fixed.

However, for testing purposes this should suffice. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now it is about time for NS3.1 (black)! NeXT has already done half of the work for us, the number of buffers is now calculated from the memory available, I haven't verified this, but at least the number seems big enough for my 32MB color slab.

(I think comp.sys.next should bill NeXT for the Great support provided). :^D Anyway, all in all we only had 2 problems. The first one wa solved by Mitch Glass here is his solution: >I had a similar problem with my Gateway, and it turned out >that the internal cables to the serial connectors were swapped, so that >what I thought was COMA/COM1 was really COMB/COM2. You might >double-check both the cables and the Phoenix BIOS setup to >make sure the COM ports are what you think they are. Sure enough that was it. He posted a "summary of my Gateway installation adventures" a few weeks ago.. Mitch, I think you should repost it every couple of weeks for a while until things settle down!!! Any way between the time we got his first message which solved the problem, and his summary, we got it up. We were able to setup the configuration. When we got to the mouse, we knew we had a serial mouse, and that it was set to a PS2mouse, but it was working, so we decided to not fool with it. Well after the reboot no mouse and no way to set it. We tried editing the config files by hand, but never got it to work. That night we got home and found Mitch's summary which said that you must select the serial mouse on setup... If only we had read it a few hours earlier. Well back to the net to ask advice. Thanks to the countless people who sent the solution. (I guess they read the manual. I myself am a highly principled person, and that's against my principals. :^) [Just kidding] The solution is to type at the boot prompt: config=Default Seriously we had read about it, and even tried it when we had the first problem, but of course it didn't work then. So we forgot about it and never came back to it. Well it worked it puts you in a minimal mode that has mouse control no matter what you are using. You log in as root, set your mouse up reboot, and its all fixed. Again, Thanks for all the help. Now, any advice on those serial ports. Is there any way to use them safely? Any way to get mail up between to machines at any speed without crashing?? Rick

Message-ID: <1993Jul26.152415.17109@linus.mitre.org> Sender: news@linus.mitre.org (News Service) Organization: The MITRE Corporation, McLean, VA Distribution: usa Date: Mon, 26 Jul 1993 15:24:15 GMT Well, for the second time since I got into NeXT, about 4 years ago, I've been screwed by NeXTWorld. The first time, not only did I NOT receive my "free year" promised with my NeXTCube purchase, NeXTWorld terminated the subscription, that I HAD paid for, early. After a years hiatus, I decided to give NeXTWorld another try. I respon- ded to a $21.95 yearly (6 issue) subscription mailing in January of 93. As of March 1 had received no issues of NeXTWorld, but I had received my bill. I promptly paid the bill, hoping that my issues would soon follow. They did not. The first issue that I received was the the April/May issue of NeXTWorld, which arrived in the 1st week of May, fully 6 WEEKS after it hit the newsstand. Furious, because I had long since purchased that issue of NeXTWorld, I called their customer service line and explained the sit- uation. The very courteous lady who took my call agreed that I shouldn't have received that issue so late, and when I asked to have my subscript- ion cancelled and a refund sent, she again agreed and informed me that I could expect a check in about 4 to 6 weeks. The check never came. What did come was my June/July issue of NeXTWorld, 3 weeks after it hit the newsstands, and again after I'd already purchased the issue. (I had naively assumed that my subscription had been cancelled per my request.) Now completely at a loss, I did nothing until after the August issue arrived, last week. On Friday the 23rd I again called the customer ser- vice line, and was informed by a very rude lady this time, that first, they had no record of my original call; second, as far as they were con- cerned it was my word against theirs about the lateness or non-delivery of issues, and that I was obviously in the wrong; third, that if I did continue to insist on a refund, they would send me exactly $7.95; and finally, that according to their computer, I was not entitled to any more issues of NeXTWorld. I strenuously objected to the last two points. I pointed out that even if I had received the Feb./March issue, that still made only 4 issues, and I was entitled to 6, as per the subscription terms. What I was told next boggled my mind. The customer service rep. told me that because of the new monthly basis for NeXTWorld, the first three issues of 1993 were being counted as "double-issues", that I'd received effectively 7 issues (more than I was entitled to), and that my subscription was term- inated. At this point, way beyond wanting to continue arguing with people who obviously don't care at all about their customers, I told them to keep their damn $7.95 and hung up. I guarantee that I will never deal with NeXTWorld again. Although I find the idea of wishing ill on a NeXT related enterprise repugnant, I hope that NeXTWorld goes the way of the NeXT's hardware business, and maybe if we're lucky, NeXTWorld will be replaced by a magazine who's managers are not so arrogant to believe that they can rip-off and piss on their subscribing customers. I've been treated badly by magazine subscription departments in the past, but never as badly as I've been treated by NeXTWorld. One person's experience... - Max | William R.

If the active paritiion is NS, it boots NS, no questions asked in either case. I would guess that there is a hidden file or two lurking about somwehere on the DOS side that handles the dual boot, but does anyone know how to get the bootmanager back to working shape if the DOS partition has been "upgraded"?

Well, I've paid for two separate NeXTWorld subscriptions over the past year and a half and I have gotten a total of two issues. Pretty much I have given up on actually getting my subscription issues as it is simply easier for me to run down to the local computer shop and just buy them on the spot.

There's GISO which is a public domain utility (a front-end to SOX) that converts some Mac sound files as well as many other sound file formats. Our MetroTools package includes a Sound Importer module that converts more forms of Mac sound files, including 'snd' resources. It also handles Mac resource forks under NEXTSTEP 3.x, MacBinary files, sample rate detection, etc. - all automatically. It even creates separate sound files for each Mac 'snd' resource it finds in a file. Drag and drop Mac sound files (or folders of files) into the panel and it does the rest. GISO doesn't have these features. For info on MetroTools, you can e-mail info@metrosoft.com.

This program is supposed to allow you to access AFP volumes on a Mac say while at the same time using uShare. I can get Partner to see a LaserWriter (actually an HP-4M), but I can't ge it to mount an AFP volume ( I could do this with NeXT's Appletalk, and still can if I enable it). What happens if that nothing gets places under the /Net directory ( that is it's empty). If I use NeXT's Appletalk I get all kinds of subdirectories of /Net.

Wow, wow, and more wow! I am pleased to hear all this. This will make working with the Intel GX even more of a joy. However, the thing that would really "top it off" is support for true NeXT resolution (not just 1024x768). I have the GX only 4 feet from a MegaPixel connected to a Cube, and the difference in resolution is very noticable when working with graphics illustration programs where you wind up with lots of windows and inspectors and toolboxes on the screen, all crowding for space.

I have some problem with the Edit in VMS over the modem connection from the NeXTstation. Somehow from the shell window in NeXT the carriage return inside the Edit in VMS behaves crazy. It does not move the curser to the beginning of the next line, but puts at some other weirdest place you can imagine. It just messes up the display, but after I do "ctrl-z" and "c" at the * prompt, I can see in fact things are at the right place. It is fairly annoying that I have to keep doing this to have the normal display. It does not happen with the TPU editor, but it happens with EDIT editor. Of course, no problem with using emacs on any UNIX machines under the same connection. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong and how I can fix it without ruining the other nicely working editors?

And I do not want to even think about a granite-textured keyboard for the Indy. I am no professional typist and I have to look at the keys... Now for the constructive critic, it happened here that the monitor of our beloved (sorry) NeXT cube went dead, so I changed the black monitor for a Sony (16in. also) that came with an 8-bit Indigo that we have lying around. Of course the Sony is much better that the Megapixel, but when I turned on the thing, I had the same feeling that when I saw NeXTStep on a 486 machine: It just looks awful! (of course if you were running windows before, it is great) NeXTstep NEEDS that black monitor (at least the front face). The black one, disappears in the background, the white one is always there emprisoning you! Now, I wouldn't say this is that critical for 19in and up displays, because in that case, the sides of the box start to be in the periphery of your FOV (when your attention is on the screen). So how about monitors with a black front face? They could be quite cool, do not look so dirty as the black ones when you do not clean them, and they are boring enough for a non-yuppie-style office. For the keyboard, DO NOT make them black (that's the only black thing on the NeXT that was wrong). Remember, be it for scientific visualization, publishing or movies, a correct perception of color is of utmost importance to the people using SGI machines, so please keep those textures out of the front! -- Fernando D.

It might be a while because I'm still running around doing 3.1 upgrades and software installation for the new semester, but I'll try to get back to you soon. I wasn't crazy about the "Nova" disk, mostly because it resembled my site more in name than content. Of course the site is too big to fit on a CD, or our 660MB drive wouldn't be (beyond) full. :-) Now that gzip is shipped with 3.1, we are considering using it as the default compression scheme. We will >not< use a version of gzip that isn't shipped as part of a NeXT software release to ensure compatibility with the widest audience. The "widest audience" goal is much more important than tighter compression, which is why we're still using the ubiquitous UNIX compress, tar, and gnutar (when necessary).

Date: Wed, 28 Jul 1993 15:39:19 GMT Message-ID: <1993Jul28.153919.24606@coplex.coplex.com> Keywords: nextstep mach Organization: Copper UNIX/USENET Services Hi, I have a couple of questions concerning NextStep.... I have read a great deal about NextStep's GUI and developer environments. However, I have not heard much about the operating system underneath it all....MACH. 1) How close is MACH to other flavor's of unix? 2) Does NextStep support multi-port serial cards on the pc? 3) Is it possible to run NextStep's mach without booting into the GUI? Our company is considering using NextStep as a development platform for in-house applications. However, we do not have the resources to replace all of our existing text based terminals with PC's (capable of running NextStep) all at once. We would like to be able to develop both GUI and text based applications under NextStep, using PC's (running NextStep) as department level unix boxes. This would allow us to make the transition from a centralized/text based environment to a distributed GUI environment, using a single operating system. However, all of this depends very heavily upon how robust NextStep's unix is. Any help in this area is greatly appreciated. Dannie J. Gregoire dannie@coplex.com

Depending on the problem in the article, NewsGrazer will hang indefinitely when trying to get the articles information, or it will quit immediately when hitting the article. In my experience, if NewsGrazer quits it's because the user is trying to sort the articles in the newsgroup, and there is an article in the newsgroup which has no subject line in it's header. In your preferences, do you have "Sort Articles" turned on? If so, turn it off and then select the news.answer newsgroup. You should then see all the articles in the newsgroup (except that they won't be sorted). You should also see at least one article which has no subject, or which looks wrong for some other reason. Select any articles you see which are like that (just so NewsGrazer marks them as read), and quit NewsGrazer. You should then be able to restart NewsGrazer, and turn the "Sort Articles" option back on. As long as you've read the problem article, NewsGrazer won't display it so it won't have to sort it.

The really important question is: Can swapfile shrink ? Thus if you swap (do some really big in Mathematica) and finish the App, the swapfile should have gone back to its former size (lowat). I guess that NeXT did some improvements in the Windowserver/WM, so it needs less memory than before.

I appreciate that NW may not be a big money maker _yet_, and really appreciate that they have finally gone monthly. they did change their subscription management service lately (dont know if it helped) but please get rid of the non standard paper size. its like a big reminder, that NeXT is different and ignores standards.

I've had zero problems with outgoing faxes. I tried mix as incoming fax machine, and mix itself worked fine, but I just don't like reading faxes on the screen (which is not mix' fault, of course). The answering machine is pretty clever -you can do (at least) simple things like "play message ..push 1 if you call Carl, 2 for Jim, and 3 for Ulla", then depending on what the caller chooses you get more messages and/or you can record the caller's message, which is then emailed to the recipient" So you can have a mix as an answering machine on one continent, and get the messages mailed to you to another continent.

Here is the answer for anybody else who might be interested. Sun OS 4.0.3 stored only raw mulaw files without any extensions. This format is obsolete; however to convert it to a NeXT snd format you can: sndconvert -o nextified.snd -f 1 -s 8012.8210513 -c 1 -r sun-sound Starting with Sun OS release 4.1 they adopted a file format like NeXT's: A comparison of <multimedia/audio_filehdr.h> on the Sun and <sound/soundstruct.h> on the NeXT shows the formats to be compatible-- just rename *.au to *.snd for the NeXT. Also there is a sound converter package called SOX that can be used to convert other sound files. That's about it. Thanks again for those that helped. Brian

It will even allow for the first one to be smaller so that documentation may accompany the first chunk. This is present in 2.1, 3.0, and 3.1 NEXTSTEP distributions (and likely others).

I think that their move to a monthly will benefit the community by having more timely articles, although, fewer per month.

NeXTWORLD is owned by IDG, a large company. I believe that IDG handles subscriptions and circulation via a central location that also does fulfillment for SunWorld, PCWorld, etc. The folks at NeXTWORLD have input, but not control over this process. Let's not flame them for something that they cannot control. In terms of content, I think NeXTWORLD is tops. Yes, I have from time to time disagreed with the content (for example, the latest review of Mesa.) But, the overall quality of NeXTWORLD magazine is up there with magazines like Byte. The content is good. The news is great. The layout is eye-catching (sometimes I like it, sometimes, I don't, but the layout is never boring.) Given the size of the staff and the size of the market, the content is phenomenal (take a look at the Amiga, Atari, and OS/2 journals that look like they were laid out by me or someone else with poor visual sense.) We are all stressing over the NeXT marketplace. Lots of us have lots of heart and soul invested in NeXT and we want it to succeed. The folks at NeXTWORLD magazine work very hard to deliver a very high quality product to our community. They are not perfect, but let's not nail them to the wall over subscription problems (call IDG about that) and let's offer constructive suggestions regarding the enhancement of product quality. Thanks. David

This seems to me to be another NS app where someone wants big money for doing what other major GUI environments have (and in some cases even NS has) for free. Another app of this kind that shoots to my mind is LoadEye. Hopefully NG Pro will be some incredibly powerful newsreader that'll make nn, rn and trn look lame, but I doubt it. I think the best future for this app is shareware. Charge a reasonable rate like Scott Hess and Don Yacktman do for their work and don't insult the customers with such an outrageously priced app. It's not as if there aren't apps that NS needs that are well worth good money. Two for example: a low-cost and reliable word processor that is competitive with MS Word (since NS continues to lose customers to MS Word/Mac, why not make something that does what it does for NS in a NS-compliant fashion and can load/save MS Word and WordPerfect files?) and a small database akin to those you see on the Mac in Microsoft Works and Beagle Bros. apps. Not everyone can afford nor needs Oracle or Sybase, but loading existing data from the popular Mac apps I just named is important. If you need an app to charge $200 for, a newsreader is not it.

The UNIX layer in the mach used in NeXTSTEP emulates 4.3BSD almost to perfection.

On the workstation's screen, log in as "console" and you'll get a nice large static vt100 window and nothing else. No mouse etc. It still looks nice, though :-). On a terminal, you just log in as you would on an other UNIX box.

IMHO, NeXT's UNIX is more stable than most others I've seen, and I've seen many. Those old kernels have grown so complex that nobody really groks their memory management/buffer cache/paging scheme interactions any more, leading to many annoying bugs. Mach has had a clean start. There are some reported errors with the supplied tools, e.g. telnetd and, till the end of the month, the serial driver. But most of these you can fix by installing the appropriate GNU tools. My cube has been running 24 hours a day, 350 days a year for three years now, and it did not even once get so stuck that I couldn't at least log in from a terminal and revive/reboot the machine. The SS2 I use at work crashed three times in two months so badly that not even L1-A (the CTRL/ALT/DEL of the Sun) could revive it, nor could I log in on a terminal. It was just plain stuck. (there was a bug in their X/NeWS server). As I like to put it: If I didn't already own a NeXT I would gladly pay full price for a used one, or full price for NS/FIP plus PC. In fact I would probably pay a lot more.

From: fischedj@ NeXTwork.Rose-Hulman.Edu (David J.

While waiting for it to arrive, I am looking for NS/FIP software to purchase or grab from an archive. I hope to find software with student (edu) prices of < $200. I love edu prices < $50 and shareware/freeware from the net is even better. In my search, I have been testing demo software on the ThirdParty CDROM on a 3.1 NeXT machine and I'll give some comments on what I have seen. I would be appreciate if anyone could suggest some software along these lines: Spreadsheet: I am looking for a Quattro Pro like app. Improv utterly fails by not providing scatter plots. Appsoft's's Solution fails by not providing useful scatter plotting nor fitting functions. Athena Design's Mesa fails by not providing fitting functions, and the interface is still unpolished (as compared to Solution). Also, Solution and Mesa are sluggish when navigating by keyboard. If nothing presents itself I will use Quattro Pro in DOS (ick). Mathematics: I have used MAPLE quite a lot, and Mathematica a small bit. I will get Mathematica if it has a reasonable price ($995 isn't reasonable; $200 is), though I prefer MAPLE. Any other tools out there? Also, if I can't find a spreadsheet with solid data analysis functions I will need another app to do that. MAPLE and Mathematica could do that. Is there any other sort of tool for data analysis? If nothing presents itself I will use MAPLE in DOS (ycuk) Word Processor: Edit meets ~80% of my needs. What I need beyond that is something with which to write scientific papers. This usually requires tiff/eps importing, a powerful equation editor, and page layout controls for making presentation overheads. FrameMaker (on 2.1 NeXTs) has met that need extremely well, but rumor is that Frame won't be ported to NS/FIP. Any suggestions? If nothing presents itself I will use MS-Word for Windows in Windows (ugh). Image Editing: This would be a toy for me. I have played with Appsoft's Image and Pinnacle's WetPaint. Both seem robust and intuitive. What's best? (Or is there something better?) I have also toyed with Appsoft's Perspective. Neat. If it is cheap enough I would also buy it to play around with. Drawing: Draw has met my needs well in the past for making simple charts of laboratory setups for school-work/research. I am now considering buying a more robust package. LightHouse Design's Diagram is powerful, but it seems more for organizational charting than drawing. Could I make an optics palette (that's what I study) with Laser, Lens, and Mirror objects? What about Appsoft's Draw -- is it a stable, powerful package? Telecommunications: Is there is anything to utilize a modem? This doesn't convcern me much now, but I know others who want this support as soon as they get NS/FIP installed. I have heard of SLiPCommander (sp?), but beyond that I am completely ignorant on the topic. Misc: I am always open to new and nifty apps, but the general productivity apps I have seen (Engage!, DarkForest, NoteBook, TaskMaster) don't serve any useful purpose for me. (If I had them, I'd use them. Without them I cope just fine) Pinnacle's VirtSpace is an exception. On a 800x600 NS/FIP display, I think this will be immensely useful. Are there any other "Gotta have it" apps out there? Games: If I want games, I'll probably buy a SNES, or King's Quest type games for DOS. But hey, maybe there is something worthwhile on the NeXT. Don't say Rocks!; $50 for Asteroids is too much. Thanks for your suggestions. I will post a summary. -- David J.

My problem is that we want to use our Mac (IIci, AUX3.0) and NeXT cube as an X Terminal (among other things). For these machines, I can't generate the correct keyboard mapping. In the course of things I became quite familiar with xmodmap and xev, but I don't quite get how the modifier keys are supposed to work. Example (NeXT): The keyboard relies heavily on Alt-something keystrokes, e.g. "1" produces "1", Shift-1 produces "!", and Alt-1 produces a "~". Looking at the keyboard events with xev, the Shift modifier works as expected, but the Meta and Alt modifier (mod1 and mod2) do not generate new keysyms at all, e.g. Alt-1 just generates an Alt-L event and a "1" event. That means, I can generate the correct mapping for unmodified keys and Shift-modified keys (complete with German umlauts and all that), but the rest beats me. On the Mac, the same thing: As long as I run MacX and the clients on the local machine, fine, everything works, Shift-7 produces a "/", Option-7 a "|", and Shift-Option-7 a "\". The usual operation, however, is to start up MacX, and then to connect to a Sun, and to start up the window manager etc. remotely. In that case, same problem as on the NeXT: The modifiers do not work as I expected. I spent quite some time to configure the modifiers and keysyms, but I've been getting nowhere. Am I just too dumb? Somebody help me out, please. Are there any written instructions I can ftp from somewhere (I mean besides the xmodmap manpage)? Books?

Date: 30 Jul 1993 18:09:32 GMT Organization: Center for Seismic Studies, Arlington, VA Message-ID: <23bo4s$5ft@seismo.CSS.GOV> References: <CAyzJB.54K@world.std.com> <CAzFHD.JDI@news.iastate.edu> NeXT said about three years ago that they are not going to re-do Mail.app until NS 4.0. This was in response to strong requests for changes by one of their early adopters (DARPA). -- Glen Foster <foster@css.gov>
Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc From: clr@next_c.pai.com (Charles Robinson) Subject: WYSIWYG PostScript (what the hey?) Message-ID: <1993Jul30.174640.24107@nntpxfer.psi.com> Sender: news@nntpxfer.psi.com Organization: Performance Systems Int'l Date: Fri, 30 Jul 1993 17:46:40 GMT For fun and games try setting the enclosed on your printer. Results to date: Preview under Version 3.0 shows text body ("Cowen/Enterpirse Fund" etc.) Preview under Version 3.1 shows text Printing under Version 3.0 prints text Printing under Version 3.1 does not print text Printing on DEC Claser does not print text Printing on HP Laser Jet 4M does not print text Printing using PC Ultrascript prints text (Both versions we have) Printing using PC RIPS board prints text. Email your results and I'll see if there is a pattern. BTW: The postscript graphs were produced by a local program which picks up a DOS WordPerfect 5.1 postscript output file and uses that as an import for the text body. The only editing of the WP input file was to delete all comment lines and the showpage. I guess I am tripping up on some type of ambiguity in Postscript implementations but I am confused. I'd at least think that Previewer's RIP and the NeXT's printer RIP would be the same!!! What happened was that this is a "production job" that was worked last quarter but doesn't work this quarter. The only difference? I upgraded my NeXT to 3.1 on my color station. -- Charles Robinson Datec Inc. 333 W.

I'd like it if it stored mail in a format compatible with mh instead of Mail. Then I'd be more likely to read my mail from home and other remote situations. Don't. That would truly make Mail.app a toy. Storage of mail messages in separate files is not only wasteful of HD space even under BSD FFS optimizations, but what's much worse very, very slow. Listing a few hundred mh messages in one folder tests the limit of my patience, even when some caching scheme is in effect. Grepping through a folder of 5000 or more messages as I frequently do under Mail.app is unthinkable. Carl Edman

My primary language is French. In my job, we use both English and French on a day to day basis. I know that the problems with Russians are not exactly the same than with French but I want to show you that NeXTSTEP could be a good choice for you. I used to work with Macintoshes, IBM-PC, UNIX systems and others. Today we use NeXT computers. Support for non-English (but using latin alphabet) language is in NeXTSTEP since version 2. With version 3.0 developping and localizing an application in many different (latin alphabet) language is an easy task. Applications provided by NeXT are "foreign language" compliant. That is true with "Edit", that is true with "Librarian" and, that is the most important, that is true with "NeXTMAIL". UNIX-mail is historicaly 7bits/characters based. NeXT has found a way to encode any binary (8 bits) file within the 7bit limit and send it over the wire which is mostly limited also to 7bits/character. That mean that everything that can be created/handled/stored in a NeXT computer could be easly sent over the wire. One of the basic format that NeXTSTEP supports is "rtf". With "rtf" you can mix fonts, size, bold, underline of each individual character. Such character could have accent also. NeXTMAIL uses a super-set of rtf to let you enclose any graphic, sound or document (file) within your message. From latin to cyrilic, the step should be easy. There is in the market some version of PostScript cyrilic fonts. Since NeXTSTEP uses only PostScript fonts, these cyrilic fonts could be installed and used. Remember: both ends of the wire must have such cyrillic fonts. I hope that will help you. -- Yanik Crepeau Programmer Planon Telexpertise E-Mail: yanik@planon.qc.ca (NeXT)

I'd be even more suprised if they didn't, since NeXTWORLD co-sponsored the Expo with NeXT. (NeXTWORLD EXPO, not NeXT Expo, or NeXTReview Expo, or, well you get the point) ^^^^^ I've had bad luck with earlier subscription problems myself. Of course, switching from six times per year to four times, no make that quarterly WITH a monthly supplement, no, we're charging extra for the supplement, no, we'll include the supplement now, hey, now we're back up to six issues per year, with the supplement again, only now it's only 40 pages thick, or whatever... It's no wonder people have a hard time straightening out subscription rates. I suppose that NeXTWORLD has merely mirrored NeXT's own shizophrenic marketing plans, with radical changes every couple of months or so to keep everyone guessing. I like a lot of the reporting in NeXTWORLD (except for the slapped-together articles in this last month's 'pamphlet'), and find their tone a refreshing change from most of the patronistic computer magazine speil. Also, I don't envy their task of trying to give NeXT a favorable spin every month without losing all credability with the other industry pundits. After what NeXT has been through earlier this year, I'm suprised NeXTWORLD didn't finally say, "Hey, how much longer do you think we can maintain our position with the rest of the press when you guys zip through VP's like there's no tommorrow", particularly when that last metaphor might prove correct. I heard that NeXTWORLD has finally switched to a new service to run their subscriptions, indicating that they were aware of the problems, but I agree that the readers have not always been treated all that well in the past (myself included). It's still too bad that there is no other viable alternative for the NeXT community, particularly something as good as MacWeek. -- Don __________________________________________________________________________ I neither confirm nor deny the presence of any disclaimer at this juncture

I suspect that NewsGrazer Pro will be considerably fancier than NewsGrazer, maybe even enough to justify the $200 price. However, *I* can't justify spending $200 on a newsreader, and I can't help but think how much happier I'd be with the regular NewsGrazer if it just had a few bugs fixed (and an Intel version, did a fat binary for NG ever appear?). I wish Millenium plenty of success, but I'm afraid that a $200 newsreader isn't going to be successful. Not with me, at least. I can't help but think that this is mildly depressing, as I like NewsGrazer a lot.

And thanks, Jeff: there's nothing like putting > your money where your mouth is! I don't think Jeff deserves the sarcasm of this post. What he says is simply the truth: at $200 it is not likely that NewsGrazer Pro will sell a lot of copies. This is true even though Jayson is certainly a highly respected NeXT developer. Jeff is also telling the truth when he says that many platforms have much cheaper newsreader solutions available. Hmm, I guess I don't agree with him that NewsGrazer Pro needs to be shareware, but it's got to be more affordable. And I say that with every intention of having Jayson & company end up as one of the beneficiaries of that lower price. NewsGrazer is good enough that I'd certainly pay $50 for it, and I'd like to think that lots of other NeXT owners would too. I could probably go up to $100 for it, but I don't know how many other people would. At $200 I simply can not justify the expense, and I can pretty much bet you that no one in my NeXT user's group will be able to afford it either. That is a statement of fact, and not just a cheapskate looking for a free ride. I guess I'm hoping that the $200 price is some marketting guru's idea of the retail price, and that the actual "street price" will be more affordable. In my case I'd could also hope for an educational price that would get it within my reach, but that's not much help for non-educational users. I'm quite sincere in wishing Jayson the best of luck with this. It will be nice to have a top-notch newsreader which is actively supported, instead of the current status of NewsGrazer (which has been pretty much in limbo for quite some time now). I'd like to see a supported newsreader app. I can understand that NeXT needs to concentrate on the OS itself, and that someone else should therefore come up with an application. Certainly Jayson did a pretty sharp job with NewsGrazer, so if anyone came up with a commercial news reader then I have a lot of confidence that his company would produce a quality program. Perhaps the best results (both for NeXTSTEP users, and for Millennium's finances) would be if there was some introductory offer price. It's too soon to really tell though, as we don't know what NewsGrazer Pro will actually look like. If it's really a best-of-breed Newsreader then it may be a very good deal at $200. Still, it's discouraging. I *want* a supported newsreader, and as a matter of principle I'd like to get that from Millenium (given that I've been using NewsGrazer for so long and have been happy with it). So I *want* to be enthusiastic about this, but it's hard to be excited about paying that much for a newsreader when I can just turn the chair in my office around and run NewsWatcher on my Mac IIci for free. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

I was one of >the first purchasers and TotSysSoft has not been able to provide me a Unfortunately, I too have to report troubles with DFax, or perhaps with the service provided by TotSysSoft. I was also a pre-release customer and I still use DFax on my cube. Service WAS good and Bruce Gingery was very helpful in tracking down some problems (such as an explanation of why I have problems with having a Wacom tablet on Port B interfering with the SupraFax modem on Port A). My complaint, and a rather big one it is, is about the means of upgrading to version DFax 1.04. Sometime ago it was announced in one of the NeXT newsgroups that that they had set up one of their machines so that a registered user can log in remotely, USING A MODEM, and transfer the upgrades. It works like this: you send them mail, they create an account and mail you a possword. Then you dial up their number, login in, and transfer using Zmodem or kermit (or a couple of other protocols). I stopped using kermit long time ago when I went from a Mac to the NeXT soon after the latter came out. (I now use Louis Mamakos's SLIP.) When I did ftp kermit from sonata, installed it, and tried to connect, the line was mostly busy. Finally I managed to connect last weekend. But, after about 15-20 minutes, in the middle of the transfer the modem dropped the line. (I have not had phone line problems in a long time.) Of course, the transfer was incomplete. I gave up since I cannot afford to keep calling long distance until I get a clean and reliable telephone connection. I sent mail to TotSysSoft explaining my troubles and asking for an alternate means of upgrading (I would even settle for floppies). Or, I can accept NeXTmail and pay for any reasonable expenses. While ARDI can provide upgrades for their customers via anonymous ftp, I don't know why TotSysSoft cannot do it. I have heard from them. (I am sure someone will respond soon; but I didn't post this because I didn't get a response so far. I just don't like their method for upgrade. To be fair to them, there are probably other customers who prefer this approach.) I have no experience with NXFax, but when I asked for information while I was waiting for my pre-release version of DFax, I received prompt and helpful response. From what I have read over the net, I would probably buy NXFax if I were to buy the fax software now. govind -- T. Govindaraj +1 404 894 3873 tg@chmsr.gatech.edu,NeXTmail welcome.

WHAT?! Does this mean what it sounds like it means? I have no other floppy controller, only the one on my Adaptec 1742 card. One needs a 3.5 floppy for the install, no? Am I screwed? Will NeXTSTEP not support the floppy controller on this card? (I am assuming that my 1742 will work in 1542 compat. mode... is this an invalid assumption? The 1742 will be fully supported in 3.2, I know.) Tell me I am misunderstanding something here. I have no desire to stick another card in my system just to support a 3.5 drive. In addition, is my Canon BJ-200 inkjet totally useless under NeXTSTEP? Is it, will it be supported, that anyone knows of? Without paying a bunch more money, of course.

The swapfile has been able to shrink since 2.x, as I remember. However, it can only shrink by truncating the end of the swapfile, so the problem occurs when: A) You run Mathematica and grow the swapfile by 60MB B) The WindowServer needs an extra 4k, and grows the swapfile further C) Mathematica ends The swapfile can't be reduced because there's a single 4k block used at the end of it. The space in the middle can be reused by further paging, so it shouldn't grow continuously, but it won't shrink, either. In order to ALWAYS be able to shrink, the OS'd need to periodically compact the swapfile. Ugh.

I bought a Supra modem in January, but haven't had a burning need to buy fax software yet (or the ROM upgrade for the Supra). As a data modem it works fine, although I haven't tried any UUCP stuff yet. Also, besides its decent price, I like the idea of a descriptive front display (rather than trying to decypher an array of LEDs). I tried a demo copy of NXFax, which didn't work and pestered me with alert panels every five minutes. I was hoping that Dfax would be a truly transparent utility that I could set and forget.

It displays from and subject in a small window in the lower left of the screen. You see the importance of incoming mail at a glance. With NS 3.1 a bug has crept in. Updating the display window after emptying /usr/spool/mail/<user> quits MailCall! How nice it would be if MailCall updated itself occasionally, emptying the window when the spool file is gone. As it is now, my workaround is to echo a space to create an empty spool file before upafating, that way at least it doesn't quit. Any one have a better fix? Is there somewone with programming abilities that feels called upon to fix and recompile the source? - Barre Ludvigsen

Everyone has griped about "when will a new release of NewsGrazer be out" and "will NewsGrazer be ported to Intel?" for quite a while. Nobody stepped up to the plate and produced a free NS app for either platform. Now, when the company that everybody KNOWS can produce the product we've all been lusting for finally announces that they will do it, the price flames start within days of the announcement. Sheesh. Give 'em a break. If you can do a NS news reader that people would buy for $50, then more power to you. Go for it. You've got months of advance notice to corner the market before Millennium. It's so tiring to listen to the steak-appetite-with-a-hamburger-budget crowd give the same speech over and over ("they'd probably sell at least 4 times as many if they dropped their price below $50") Sure, and I'd like a $5,000 Lexus too. If it isn't worth $199 to you, tough. Use whatever you can come up with and be happy. Just for the record, I think in this case that you're completely wrong about them selling 4 times as many copies. The people who really want this product will buy it at whatever price. The pinch-penny crowd among us won't buy it at any price, no matter what they claim. John Bartley

I agree with you on LoadEye, but if NewsGrazer and LoadEye seem to be comparable complexity apps in your eyes then I think you need some new glasses. For NG to be so valueless, it would have to be a snap to throw together and support. If that were the case then surely we would see lots of better versions to compete with it before now. That's not the case, and it leads me to the conclusion that maybe it's a tad more difficult to handle the demands of this app then you give credit for.

That way \cal only applies to the L instead of the whole equation. TeX questions probably should be put in comp.text.tex first since it is not NeXT specific.

TIMMS sounds like a vertical product, that is going to make/save money for the companies that buy it. I would hardly say that a newsreader would fit that category. However, to be fair, Millennium is not the only company selling NEXTSTEP software at high prices. Yes the market is small. However, with NS/INTEL available, it has the chance to grow rather drastically. However, highly priced software is a deterrent to purchasing NEXTSTEP. I'm not saying we should be getting NewsGrazer Pro for free. Not by a long shot. Perhaps a threaded and non-threaded version? and how about one price across the board, no educational pricing for a nickel sort of a deal. Microphone is an excellent example. Its reasonably priced, and does alot more than your free unix alternatives. It has an excellent feature set, and to many people probably falls into the "want to buy" as opposed to "have-to-buy" category. Whatever the price, it is obvious that Newsgrazer Pro, with Jayson at the helm, is going to be an excellent product. I guess I'll just have to put that money that I was going to spend on Paste-Up aside and spend it when NG Pro ships! :-) -- - Scott Anguish - sanguish@digifix.com (NextMail) next-announce@digifix.com (comp.sys.next.announce submissions)

I am still looking for a floppy drive for my cube. I have no room left inside the cube, however, so am looking at my options. I can either buy an external scsi drive or an internal one with a separate case. If I buy another case, I can hopefully place other devices into it as well, cutting down the cost of buying a CD-ROM drive, another SCSI HD, etc. Has anyone used a PC case for such a purpose? Good/bad experiences or suggestions? I am thinking of a baby tower or some such box with a power supply. I know little about this, so don't even know if this is ffeasible/prudent. I also have an OD in the cube, which is useless since the 33Mhz 040 board (I believe) doesn't support the OD. If anyone is selling an 030 board *really* cheaply, I am considering purchasing one just to control the OD. Let me know if you have such a beast for sale.

No, it's the customers who decide. I *might* buy it for $200 myself (if it's pretty snazzy), but as the president of a NeXT user's group I just wanted to pass along the observation that few of the NeXT users I know will buy it at that price. They just can't justify that expense for a newsreader. And on the topic of other platforms have more volume, is there *any* platform which has a news reader program that sells for $200? If so, could you tell me how well it's selling? I'd be honestly surprised if anyone is making any sales on a newsreader selling at that price.

Well, I don't have the money right now, because I just faxed in an order for PasteUp, Concurrance, and Microphone Pro last week. I intend to buy the latest version of Executor before the end of August too. Sooner or later people do run out of money, and it's not because they are cheap tightwads who want a free lunch. By the time NG Pro is out I'll (hopefully!) have the money, but that doesn't mean I'm going to spend $200 on a newsreader instead of spending it on some other NeXT applications. Of course, the problem with (me) trying to debate this now is that the announcement came out so far ahead of the newsreader. For all I know it will be sharp enough that people will buy it at $200. I have always been quite favorably impressed with things that Jayson & company have worked on before, so I hope it is good enough to justify the price. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

I, for one, have been trying hard not to seem like I'm just flaming away. I don't believe anyone at Millenium deserves a mindless flame about this. That does not change my disappointment at the price. For a long time I've wanted to see NewsGrazer (or a follow-on to it) officially supported, so I was very excited when I saw the header announcing NewsGrazer Pro. My disappointment at the price was so profound that I just could not help but express it. > Why hasn't anybody flamed the people who created TIMMS (Totally Integrated > Medical Management System) who sells their product for $12,000?

The people who buy something like TIMMS will make money off of application, as it provides something that no other software package provides. Most people who are reading news are just using up time by it, and not making money (this accounts for the signal-to-noise ratio...). What's more, there are lots of alternative ways to read news, and it's not clear that anyone will make (or save) lots of money based on NG-Pro over those alternatives. > Come on, people.

Is this what one wants? Here, here! I spent my years before I got my NeXT on the Atari ST. Hey, don't laugh! It was a good computer, made by yet another company who couldn't market their hardware it they *gave* it away. The Atari was most definitely a low volume platform if ever there was one, yet the price for the third party software was no where near the prices that many NeXT developers charge. Now I agree with many people on the net that I'm willing to spend the money for a piece of software that's worth the money. But when there are umpteen different newsreaders out there that are either free or very low in cost, I couldn't see spending $200 for a commercial one unless it was as revolutionary a newsreader as NEXTSTEP is an OS. That could happen. But I think that it would have been a better decision for all involved if they had held off on the price/availability announcement until the product was almost ready to ship. That way potential customers could have seen what they'd be getting for this rather large outlay of money. All the above is IMO, of course. Just adding some more gasoline to the flames.

Phillipe Kahn and Borland are not quite a good example to use, I'm afraid. True, he was pissing off Bill Gates because he was selling software for such a low price (and Gates felt that the market could support a higher price). But back when some of Borland's "high-end" products were selling for $99, Kahn did some market research and discovered that a number of people were not buying his products, even though they compared favorably to products which were much more expensive, simply because they were so cheap. Many people in the mass market have the impression that greater cost == better product, and Kahn found that he was actually *hurting* his sales by being so inexpensive. Now I'm not saying that everyone (or even anyone) here on the net believes that with software you get what you pay for. But the list price of a product does more than simply indicate what the seller wants in exchange for the product, it also positions the product among its counterparts from other vendors. --- David --------------------------------------------------------------------- David Finkelstein |"Nothing comes out of the faucet University of British Columbia | but strawberry jelly.

The latest gzip (1.2.3) is compatible (in both directions) with the gzip that comes with 3.1 (1.0.7?), except that the older gzip does not automatically recognize the .gz extension. However, the usual usage with tar does not depend on that anyway, so: gzip -dc blah.tar.gz | tar xvf - will work with any version of gzip (so far), and data compressed by the newest gzip can be decompressed by the oldest gzip. There has been no change whatsoever in the compressed data format. For that matter, the compression hasn't changed over the gzip versions either-- gzip -9 will give you the same compression for any version. That may change someday, but you can still have decompresser backwards compatibility. If what you're saying is that you will only use the .z extension instead of .gz because of the version of gzip that comes with 3.1, that's really not necessary. I don't particularily care myself (I actually like the appearance of the .z extension better anyway), but any gzip as a decompression filter doesn't care what the extension is.

High praise, indeed, for a journal claiming to cover the NeXT market exclusively. Much to my surprise and amusement, an excerpt of my posting appeared as a "letter to the editor" in a subsequent issue of the magazine. We all got a chuckle from this, since they had missed the sarcasm in my original posting. Then, much later, I find that a paraphrased excerpt of my misquoted posting, incorrect attributed as a "letter to the editor" appeared on solicitations for magazine subcriptions as an "endorsement"! I was, needless to say, REALLY pissed off that they had used my (good, I hope) name to endorse their publication without my permission. I finally managed to get someone to call me back after many angry email messages, phone messages. They claimed that they had just gone to their "letter to editor" file, and used that material. They said that letters to the editor became the property of the magazine. While I have no disagreement with this, I pointed out they I had not, in fact, EVER sent them a "letter to the editor." They really didn't have a good answer for that. I asked them to immediately cease and desist using my name in that matter, but they claimed they had already printed up all these envelopes... I was left with taking legal action against them, but this didn't seem like a productive approach given what lawyers cost these days, and the fact that I considered that I might actually have to advertise with those *()@%@ people in the future. -- Louis A.

Something that it hints at that bears further examination is that the NEXTSTEP third-party market has a severe multiple-personality disorder. It makes marketing and pricing products extremely difficult. It's not just that the market is small. If that were the case this would be an easier issue. The truth is that there are three main markets: 1) Traditional individual end-users 2) Educational/academic/hacker end-users 3) Corporiate purchasers Attempting to market a product well into these three areas when each is relatively small is no easy chore. I'd invite the critics to try it. Market 1 is actually QUITE small. We (and many other small developers) think we address this market with our products about as well as we can. We offer decent value for the money, run appropriate advertising and have all the trappings of a small company selling into the similar but significantly larger Mac market. Problem is there are really only 10,000 or so people in this market. You do the math. I'd love for this market to be larger. Market 2 is perhaps smaller than Market 1. They have different needs and clearly different purchasing resources. Some people in this group feel software should do everything, come with source code and be really inexpensive. That makes perfect sense, but is difficult to achieve. Sharing one copy of a product amongst 10-50 users is commonplace. Some small companies have addressed this market by offering extreme discounts on their products. Market 3 is going to be the largest market for NEXTSTEP 3rd party apps for some time to come - possibly forever. One sale into this market can eclipse ALL the revenue made in the others. Problem is the needs are different again, both in terms of product content and marketing. The thing that makes this weird in the NEXTSTEP arena is the almost "phantom" traditional individual end-user market. We have a glossy NeXTWORLD magazine that we need to advertise in for exposure. I'd guess that the sales resulting from these ads barely offset the cost of the ads themselves for many 3rd party developers. And now that NeXTWORLD is monthly, this will get even more expensive. But the impact to the MAIN NEXTSTEP MARKET is nearly tengential. Very strange. Products are reviewed in this magazine, typically by people that belong to the academic/hacker merket. So you have hackers (who love UNIX) reviewing what appear to be shrink-wrap products for a phantom end-user market so that corporate purchasers will determine which products to by in large quantities. Truly amazing. The only thing this strange is what the SGI arena will start to look like in 12-18 months. We have a very bizzare little arena here folks. The good news is that we all love the technology dearly, and nifty products are being produced as a result. The bad news is that there is no one solution to product pricing and marketing that will satisfy all the players. Selling software at bargain basement prices isn't the answer. Neither is selling it at workstation prices (side note: I'd love to see what would happen if a 3rd party developer attempted to price a product along SGI product curves).

Shortly after the Expo, I ordered a bunch of stuff from them - some in small quantities just to sample the quality. The results have been somewhat surprising. It has taken until today to fulfill my entire order, which I suppose isn't all that bad - about 8 weeks or so (after all, NeXT took 4 months to ship my CD ROM drives.) It was split up into four different shipments that seemed to arrive every couple of weeks or so, which makes it difficult to keep track of what has been received and what is on order. Naturally there is more shipping cost, although I haven't checked to see if I had to pay it myself or not (possibly not.) I ordered the NeXT coffee mugs and discovered that they were "discontinued." Makes me wonder if they had to be "continued" before they could be discontinued! Does anyone actually have any of the white mugs with color logo? The Koozie MiniSport is OK as a can wrap, but too small to be of much value otherwise. The new NeXTSTEP T-shirts are also OK. Today's shipment brought the biggest rip-off/disappointment though. I ordered one NeXT baseball hat to see what it would look like. Sheeesh. If you want to look like "Floyd R. Turbow, American" (as featured on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson over the years) feel free to buy one of these gems. Pure junk, and shaped in such a way that one can't help looking like an idiot when wearing it! :-) Even the stitching is low quality. The material is not what you might typically expect to find in a "baseball cap." Sort of a cheap, thin, cotton-polyester blend that looks awful. Save your money on this turkey. My favorite is the combo highlighter/pen. Black, with a white NeXT logo. I've given away a couple of dozen so far. Just my $.02 worth. John Bartley

Because it is so small, very few of the fixed costs associated with writing software can be recovered unless the price per copy is very high. This is aggravated be a limited set of people in the community that will pay virtually anything for tools that do the right job. I'm sure that there are 2 or 3 large sites that will by 250+ copies of NG/Pro. There are a lot of students who will be using rn on their NS/Intel boxes. So Millennium is in a bind. If they price NG/Pro for the masses ($49 or so), they will lose the cash that they would have made from the sites that will write the check. On the other hand, the current pricing model is clearly designed to exact the largest amount of money from the larger NEXTSTEP customers and may result in more profits for Millennium (which is good! The more NS developers there are who make money, the more developers there will be who are enticed to create great apps, and ultimately, the NS users win.) With all that said, best of luck to Scott and Jayson. They have created a cool product (Notebook), and they should benefit from the hard work that went into its development. If they have developed a pricing model that will help them continue to develop cool apps, then it is a good thing. David

Gordon's article is a very good analysis of the market, and he is correct -- the 3rd market is going to be the target market for a while, especially for the more commercial NeXTSTEP development ventures out there. However, every commercial product needs to examine exactly what target area they're aiming for. Just because corporate purchasers are the largest market doesn't necessarily mean that you should target all your products solely for the corporate arena. To speak specifics, i.e. NewsGrazer Pro, I think that you would see the market skewed a bit. It is my belief that, for Usenet newsreaders, the "traditional end-user" market is nearly non-existent, the "academic/hacker" market is larger than it would usually be, and the "corporate market" is a bit smaller than it would normally be. The main purchasers of a newsreader are going to be academic and corporate users, and I personally think that you'll see both areas getting large chunks of the pie. Is $200 a fair pricing policy for this? I'm not sure. Corporate purchasers may find it hard to justify the expense, considering that they probably have system administrators who can set up rn/trn/gnus for free for those who want it. Some academic purchasers and hackers will buy it, if they feel the features justify the cost. Many more hackers and academics will simply turn to the free software rather than shell out the bucks. I agree that pricing policies are incredibly difficult in such a fragmented environment such as the NeXT world. However, I think that Millenium may be shooting themselves in the foot with the pricing policy here. I suppose time will tell. Stephen Peters

To use my academic background, proper software pricing fits nicely into the theory of industrial organization, or more to be more precise, into the theory of "discriminatory pricing." The problem is how someone with market power can best extract all rents (profits) from software. A common case is where some users place very high value on a good, others low value. The best choice would allow the producer to charge each person their marginal utility. It can be argued that this is the source of the distinction between academic and commercial pricing, driven by profit maximization not good-heartedness. /ivo welch

I'll agree that it's the corporate users who will pay that amount -- I think they're the only group willing to pay that amount. :-) However, I believe that there will be a non-insignificant number of sysadmins and managers who will balk at the idea of ordering 50 to 100 copies of a $200 product, when a free solution may exist. This of course assumes that there won't be any bulk discounts, nor any multi-user licensing possibilities -- two assumptions that I'm willing to bet will be completely wrong :-). Still, I think these same sysadmins would probably be less reticent with a lower-cost product. > *I* don't expect to buy the product, and I find > rather peculiar (and offensive) that other people who > don't intend to buy it nonetheless find it necessary not > only to broadcast that fact but to call Jayson's > character into question. Ack! I certainly didn't mean to impugn Jayson's character in the slightest. I do think that the pricing is high, but I hold Jayson and Millenium in high respect for thier accomplishments, especially the first Newsgrazer and the excellent Notebook application. I do not think that Jayson is just out to make a fast buck, nor do I see him as the type of person who is out to rape the user community for all they're worth. He's simply trying to fill a need he sees in the NeXT community, and price it so that it is profitable. It is my humble opinion that the current pricing is higher than the market will bear. > Great.

Don't > forget to estimate all your costs! Well, for the same reason that you and I can't agree on the size of the corporate market, I'm going to avoid attempting this. I tend to think that, in this case, cutting the price by 3/4 will result in 4 times the sales, but it is fairly clear you disagree with that assumption. As you said (in part of your posting that I excised), Jayson's "stepping up" to find out if the market can support the higher price. I *do* wish him luck, although I have my doubts. Stephen Peters

Now, however, someone who might buy or recommend a lot of machines for the University has asked me about knowledgable vendors. Man! I would love to be able to get more NeXT's... oops! that's more machines running NEXTSTEP on this campus. So I am asking for the net's help. One of the things I did read about vendors was about one in Colorado (I think) who knew what he was doing. Does this ring a bell for anyone? Can someone send me info on this person? Actually, if people can send me info on vendors that they've worked with and their recommendations, good or bad, I'll summarize them for the net. Everything will be hearsay, of course, but isn't everything we know really just hearsay? (Sorry. I'm part nihilist. :-) So, send me your tired, your poor, your good vendors and your bad.

(I should point out that I'm entering this post with NewsGrazer.) I've always been pleased with Stone Design's pricing policy. When 3DReality first came out, and we'd all recovered from Andrew's party, the price was $99.00 for 'early adaptors' (which would probably include most of the people who are reading this thread), and it then jumped to ~$450 after about 8 or 12 weeks. The short-term low price gives the individual users & hackers an opportunity to get the product, with the caveat that it's a 1.0 version (i.e., probably has bugs), and that they have to move quickly. Then, the price goes up, to extract as much cash as possible from the larger sites, which typically aren't interested in buying a product on heresay on the net. Come to think of it, Microsoft does this too - the price for MS/DOS-6 was ~$50.00 for several months when it first came out, and then it jumped to $99.00 or so. The Win/NT beta is a somewhat similar situation. This makes some sense to me, and I'd love to see other software companies follow Andy & Bill's lead. Just my $0.02 worth...

Well, I don't know that it's profit maximization versus good-heartedness. It's more that it's an imperfect world. Imagine software sales in which you charge the customer based on their marginal utility. If you use the product very little, the price should be low, and if you use the product all day long, the price should be high. Now try to project that into the sales cycle..... Sales: "Hi. You want to buy PasteUp. How much do you think you'll use it?" Customer: "Well, probably 30-40 hours a week. I'm a designer." Sales: "Okay, your price is $7,000" Customer: "Gulp" [hangs up] Sales: "Hi. You want to buy PasteUp. How much do you think you'll use it?" Customer: [same one, two days later] "Hardly at all. I'm an engineer." Sales: "Okay, your price is $38." The difficulty is in verifying someone's "marginal utility". Once people figure out how you price it, the game is over. There is no reasonable way to be fair in pricing based on usage. You have to distribute your pricing across the average customer, and the ones who use the product every day for their productivity will get a great deal, whereas the occasional user will pay too much. This can be mitigated by simple classification, like Educational quali- fications. This is done by almost all software vendors. Anything more elaborate just isn't feasible, and wouldn't end up being any more fair than the way it is done now. -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Electronic Frontier Foundation, member #054

I have a related question about attachment vs. object behavior and interfaces. I love drag and drop and yet I find that NeXT is somewhat ambivalent on the behavioral issues that come with working with ric h documents and attachments. In the case of embedded EPS, TIFF or filtered images, the file is displayed in its native or filtered format. When you drag an addresses file entry into an RTF document, the address is converted to its RTF representation. In the case of bundles/directories, sound files, text-only shell scripts and other RTF documents, however, you only get an icon. Now, obviously, sound files are difficult at best to represent visually except by icons, bundles are tidier when bundled, but the embedded RTF document seems reasonably represented by being displayed in its native format _by_ _default_... So I guess what I am asking for here is the ability to choose how attachments are represented, either in native format or in iconic representation. And by extension, this means when an RTF or RTFD file/bundle/document is converted by Edit.app into its ASCII representation (in the future, Unicode...), that means the text of the rich attachments or embedded shell scripts is also maintained, with other images, etc. represented by their path name or whatever appellation they will have in 4.0.

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups.

A better example, which does not support your position, would be Mathematica which resulted in a lot of sales to the academic world. The same goes for TeX.

The trouble is that there may or may not be "significant demand". There is no absolute relationship between vocal individuals on the net and purchasing patterns of the whole community. What we know for sure is that less than a dozen people are more likely to buy the product at a different price point. Any notion of significant demand is synthetic.

Also tell anyone you know who isn't on the net...) We have discovered a potentially serious problems with some shipments of NEXTSTEP 3.1/fip CDs that makes it IMPOSSIBLE to install NEXTSTEP on any hardware because the CD cannot be read: There seems to have been a defect in the packaging phase during the production of batch of NEXTSTEP 3.1 CDs. These CDs are "fogged." That is, they have a thin film over the back of the CD (side opposite of the label). At first we thought it was due to humidity, but now we are not sure what it is. However, we believe that the defect happened during the packaging phase because all of our 22 copies (from the same shipment) of NEXTSTEP 3.1/fip had this film. Copies from an earlier shipment were fine. We believe that this is not an isolated incident and that other shipments may also be affected. This problem can be fixed if you carefully clean the CD. We sucessfully used "computer screen cleaner" and Windex without any problems. Apply the cleaner to a lint-free cloth and wipe the film off the CD. After the CD is cleaned, installation and use of the CD should be problem free (that is if there aren't any other problems like hardware incompatiblity).

A mission-critical, vertical market application (someone mentioned the $12,000 TIMMS earlier) can cost a lot of money, because it will bring a huge amount of benefit to a customer. A wide-use app like a word processor or a spreadsheet can cost upwards of $200 because there are a million things you can do with either. All you can do with a USENET news reader is read USENET, no matter how many bells and whistles are in the program. USENET is a hobby for me; it's certainly not worth $200, especially when I can get a terminal-based newsreader for free. Even if NG/Pro has a million bells and whistles. It is true that USENET offers a unique forum for technical assistance, etc. If you figure the cost of CompuServe for a year, it probably costs more than NG/Pro. But of course you also would have to consider the cost of an NNTP connection, plus e-mail, etc, in that. I'd be interested to see a list of new features in NG/Pro that make it worth $200. -- Adam Elman ResComputing Tech Support, Stanford University elmanad@deathstar.stanford.edu aelman@cs.stanford.edu "You guys are so talented -- it's such a waste!" -- Some random auctioneer in Woodside, CA referring to the Stanford Band

While several people have expressed their feelings about the price, I don't think anyone has "called Jason's character into question". It seems to me that I've been one of the more vocal folks expressing disappointment at the price, but if you can find anything in any of my remarks (at any time, going back to the release of NewsGrazer) which "calls Jason's character into question", I will most certainly apologize for it. Jason & company have always done a fine job by me, as far as the programs I have used from them. I wish I could express my opinion about the price, without people pretending that I've got some beef with Jayson. I just don't think NG Pro will be successful at that price.

This for the purpose of preserving incentives for authors of object software (and in turn to encourage reusability, efficiency in the software process, etc.). I don't think it's practical.

OK, so I'll do it myself. For documentation, production, and overhead it will cost about $15/unit shipped. Distribution will run 40-50% of the purchase price. You are now seeing $10/unit shipped. There are maybe 50,000 NeXT machines out there. I doubt any third party product for the NeXT has shipped more than 10,000 units (and clearly the NewsGrazer market will be smaller than for some other applications). Therefore your budget for the first 10,000 units is $100,000 which, in round figures, is about what a major company would figure that a programmer capable of producing something like NewsGrazer costs them for a year (the programmer, of course, doesn't see it all is his or her paycheck). Then there's promotion! Out of your corporate bank account you pay a couple of hundred bucks a month times 12 months/year. If all your sales are made in one year, this comes to maybe $2-3/unit sold. And still this overestimates the budget because there is a substantial risk of not reaching sales of 10,000 (a very substantial risk, I would say) for which the entreprenuer needs to be paid in the long run (else it's not a busines). The small business owner is working significantly harder than the company programmer, of course, in between reading messages day after day on this forum from people who are neither producers nor customers offering free advice and occasionally a bit more... Face it, folks, nothing is profitable at $49 in the NeXT market. If the volume were out there, there would be lots of producers and I trust the prices would look like PC prices. But it simply isn't there. And I sure haven't heard of a soul who has gotten rich producing third-party software for NeXTstep. So if anyone thinks they have a way of making a business out of it, and they're willing to step up to the plate, I say "Good for them, and good luck to them." Tom

Well *someone* should call Jayson's character into question :-) Come to think of it, now is probably as good a time as any. *Somebody* needs to do it :-) Seems to me he's a pretty weird guy. He puts Three Stooges sound bites into his examples, knows way too much about old Star Trek episodes, and his mother dresses him funny. I remember a night after NeXTWORLD Expo when several of us NeXT developer types were walking along toward some restaurant, all resplendent in our three-piece Italian suits and everything, when suddenly I realized I had a NeXT-formatted floppy disk in my suit pocket. "What a nerd," I thought. But then I looked around, noticed that I was walking with Jayson Adams, Keith Ohlfs, and Ken Fromm, and on impulse pulled the floppy out of my pocket and said, "okay, how many of you nerds have floppy disks in your suit pockets?!" Of course all of us did, but Jayson actually had several of them, even an Extended Density disk! Sheesh. So I don't think it's completely out of question to call his character into question. I'm sure he'll post something with NewsGrazer Pro calling MY character into question, as well.... :-) :-) for the humor-impaired. -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Electronic Frontier Foundation, member #054

Seems to me this reaction got lost in the discussion of other issues, and I think it's a useful question to ask. I don't see that any newsreader needs to handle FTP, UUCP/SLIP connection management, or terminal emulation (certainly not for a $200 product). Same with news server implementation.

I'd easily pay $100 for a NewsGrazer replacement which was like NewsGrazer, and also: 1) fixed up some article-handling bugs (a few articles cause NG to hang up, a few others cause NG to exit sideways). 2) fix up bugs in article sorting. Sometime the sorts are wrong, and sometimes sorting a newsgroup will cause NG to quit. Also it needs to be less sensitive to minor changes in the subject when sorting. 3) better use of threads -- in the programming sense. Our usenet hub is a piece of, well, let's just say it has some performance problems at times. There are times where NG will hang up waiting for a response from the server (NNTP connection), and thus makes it impossible to type into any article window. The problem here is really with our usenet hub, but it'd be worth $100 to me for an NG follow-on that behaved better over a slow NNTP connection. What would have to be added to get me up to $200? Hmm, not sure. Better integration with email would help a lot. Right now I collect info from both usenet and email (including email which is related to usenet articles I've already saved), and I hate having those end up in two places. This is the main reason I've always hoped NeXT itself would support NewsGrazer to the same extent it does for Mail.app. It seems to me that these are two applications that have very similar uses and benefits. Ability to find things after they are saved would be nice. Millenium has been interested in information-processing questions like this, so it wouldn't be suprising if they have something up their sleeve in this area. I guess I could use WAIStation for both of these things, but I've never quite figured out how to take advantage of WAIStation (I usually give up after fiddling with it for an hour or so). MIME support would be nice, although we haven't really gotten into MIME here at RPI yet. I'm not even sure that MIME is solidified enough to implement, but given that NG Pro is being written from scratch, I'm not sure that it's worth the effort to implement the rich-text support that NG had (unless it's pretty easy to do...). If the rich-text support is done, there are a few rough edges in the current NG implementation which should be addressed. Other people have asked for threaded newsreaders, but I've never used one so I don't know how useful that would be. And to give Jayson *less* work to do (thus perhaps justifying a lower price for NG Pro), what kind of news-configuration options do people need? At RPI we're moving more and more towards NNTP configurations (instead of NFS-mounting the spool directory and using flat files), and all Mac newsreaders work via NNTP. Would an NNTP-only newsreader do the job? In a separate article (on a different topic), Eric P Scott notes: eps| WARNING to NewsGrazer users: NewsGrazer (the free one) doesn't eps| implement the NNTP protocol properly. Any lines you see eps| beginning with .. should only have one . at the beginning. eps| If you copy this text from a NG window you will need to strip eps| the extraneous .s yourself. (For $200 NG Pro better fix this!) I could probably think up a few more things that would make me feel good about spending $200 for a newsreader, but I have to head home sometime soon so I'll post this to see what kinds of wish lists other people have. Similar to the sentiments that Michael and others have expressed, I also wish Millenium the best of luck with this endevor. Note I'm making the assumption of NewsGrazer functionality as a base starting point... -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

I'd like to know if anyone has had experience with the Intel JAWS and Compaq QVision graphics systems running NextStep. The tech support at Dell claimed a marked performance increase over the S3-805 local bus system. Nobody at Compaq had any experience, and some did'nt even know what NextStep was! I tried getting the scoop from NeXT, but they were tight-lipped due to contract agreements, etc. etc... Anyway, I think this is an important question, especially for me, since I've got to make a decision about one system over another practically immediately. So far, our experience with graphics systems has been difficult. We got the Dell 466/ME system, with (I had spec'd an S3-805 EISA card with 2MB) a S3-928 EISA card with 2MB. The local bus video was unused. While NextStep installed and ran, it would only do 640x480 B/W (not surprising!), what was surprising was that window movements (dragging a window, scrolling) was quite (intolerably) slow and choppy. Removing the card and enabling the on-board S3-805 (albeit with 512K std memory), did nothing to enhance this. My conclusion: S3-805 cannot perform satisfactorily as a graphics system for NextStep. Perhaps I am a little hasty, but I can't beleive that if low-res performs poorly, high res will do any better. Also, the screen refresh rates of this system at high-res will ruin your eyes in time. The Jaws system reportedly has 66Hz refresh at 1152x900 (maybe better at NeXT's 1120x832), while QVision has 72Hz at 1280x1024 ( !!!! ). If anybody can elaborate on their experiences with these and other graphics systems, I would be very happy. I would be ecstatic if they would do so in the next 12 hours! I would make a donation to their favorite charity if they called me tomorrow!!! Whew! -bogdan (bogdan@eecs.nwu.edu) (708) 864-9176 Home (-8:00am CDT) (708) 491-1165 Work (8:30am+ CDT)

When will RightBrain and other Next dedicated software houses > abandon the Next platform? Is there still any financial incentive left > for these companies to write innovative third party apps? Few of the large, mission-critical shops buy NextStep for all those seats without considering some productivity apps (spreadsheets, databases, word processors, presentation packages, etc.) as well. Unlike a few years ago, no mission-critical custom application/system can make it without combining with productivity apps. I wonder, though. With NS 3.2 making running DOS/Windows apps a pretty reasonable proposition, will those productivity apps come from that (dark) side and run inside NextStep GUI? Will the innovative, sound, and worthy NS apps all of a sudden be in pretty direct competition with the hoard of PC apps? What will be the edge? What about the (frequently amusing) prices for NS apps? I also worry. When I bid the project I now perform (pre-hardware drop, pre-NS/FIP shipping, pre-NS 3.1) we were to interface to two NS products known for good sales and early NeXT support. Both products are no longer being interfaced because of marketing decisions they have made. Both effectively took their energy in other directions. If the once strong guys are retreating does this mean the newer, more innovative guys have a vacuum to fill or is Glen telling the tale? Our startup, Gemstone Systems, was formed to develop, market, and support world class products for NextStep. When NeXT changed directions and caused problems, we re-evaluated and took off in the contractor direction. We will still release some world class products (at least the one we just about shipped before the February "suprise"), but the writing on the wall appears to say: Go for the mission-critical custom apps in 1993 and 1994.

I gots the new BIOS, so I know about the keyboard thing. I disabled the floppy on the Adaptec board, and plugged the drive into the motherboard. I removed the stupid non-SCSI CD-ROM card, removed the Pro Audio sound card, disconnected the modem and printer, went through the BIOS setup and have tried to get this thing down to a reasonable "bare minimum." I boot from the NeXT floppy. It churns away for a while and gets to Registering: fc0 and hangs. If I eject the floppy after it resets the SCSI bus, it gets past that point, and says root on sd1 rootdev 608, howto 0 and hangs. If I boot from the floppy, and don't mount the CD-ROM in the drive, then whether I leave the the floppy in or not, I get RDP exception blah blah blah ... press 'c' to continue... and it loops endlessly, asking me to press c to continue. It does see the CD-ROM drive and the hard disk when it probes the bus, and does tell me that the CD has a valid label. (I even checked for a "fogged" CD, as someone recently warned about. :-) The CD-ROM has been at ID 1 and ID 6, with no difference in (mis)behavior. :-) I've tried everything; screwed with all the jumper settings on the disk (Seagate 500MB) the CD-ROM drive (a SONY CDU-8012 rev 3.1a, from a Sun shoebox) and the Adaptec board. Of course, I did this *one tweak at a time*, so I've rebooted this damn machine at least 70 or 80 times. (BONUS POINTS: Is there a way to disable the bloody memory test on startup? :-) I even thought that I was just being impatient; it seemed to be making floppy noises, so I left the room, and hoped it was just being slow. Teeth have been nashed, heads scratched, possibilities pondered. HELP!! I *know* there are folks out there that reported this same problem, but I missed the solution (if one was posted). I *know* that there are successful Gateway installs, so hopefully someone out there can give me some tips. Thanks, -- Chris -- Chris Lamb, Sr. Alchemist chris@alchemy.com

This has been an vexing "economics problem" from the GetGo... The NEXT platform is not B D quite a traditional workstation, and it's not quite a PC. Software such as Sybase and ORacle have hefty price tags and users who are former PC'ers scream. Software such as Wordperfect insults the user's sense of value in it being generations behind the current offerings on other platforms and they wonder why it doesn't sell well. Companies recognize that the installed base for NEXT is not huge and that the mix between traditional corporate users and "enthusiast" is a hard one to gage for pricing. I believe that this product is of specific interest to the "enthusiast" segement of the market and given that, there are pricing factors that should be considered. Enthusiasts still have a PC software view of things. i.e. go down to the local EGGhead and plop down your 99.95 and gets your software shrinkwraped package. Another factor is the shareware/ftp archives and freeware mentality prevalent amongst the enthusiast segment of the Next community. I beleive the corporate market for a news reading product would be marginal at best and that the bulk of revenues to be realized for this product will come from non-corporate sources. The resounding response in this forum is that the $299 price is completely out of the ball park of what people would even consider to pay for this type of software and functionality. A few price points ($50 etc) have been mentioned. It seems that this package will sell well if priced under $100. I would guess that upwards of 10,000 copies could be sold of this in the non-corporate segment of the NEXT market. At $50 a whack, that's half a million dollars. I'd say, Jayson wouldn't be starving at that rate. I would estimate around a 500-1000 copies at the $299 price and not primarily among the non-corporate users. So, I would add my voice to the chorus asking that Millenium reconsider it s pricing structure for this product as there is obviously a great interest in this long awaited product, but ONLY at a certain price level. I'm happy to use tin in a terminal window until a good value product comes along.

This is being posted with NewsBase 3.0r2 It compiled just fine under NS3.1, with a couple of tweaks (removing #include<libc.h>) to the jpeg section, which is susposed to be the generic jpeg library. Also, it would not produce a FAT binary version, due to the jpeg stuff, I'm not knowledgable enough to modify that makefile to generate and use both archs.

Gibt es immer noch technische Probleme ? Mir ist das eigentlich > unklar, jeder smail kann das. Das kann nur jemand schreiben, der Mails nicht mit SMTP nach Uebersee ueber- traegt! SMTP ist fuer den Transport grosser Datenmengen denkbar ungeeignet. Solche Datenmengen sind besser mit FTP oder FSP zu uebertragen. Bei den schlechten Leitungen (in Deutschland und ueber den Atlantik) kommt es bei grossen Mails immer wieder zu Abbruechen. Bei SMTP wird dann wieder von vorn uebertragen. Bei einer sehr grossen Mail vor kurzem, wurde die Mail 21 (!) Mal uebertragen, bis sie dann vollstaendig beim Zielrechner angekommen ist. Damit wurde der 21fache Traffic gemacht - besonders auf einer schlechten Leitung ist das schlimm. Ausserdem bleiben alle anderen Mails an den gleichen Zielhost solange liegen, bis diese Mail uebertragen wurde, da nur eine SMTP Verbindung zum gleichen Zielrechner aufgemacht wird. Vera schrieb auf eine Rueckfrage aus USA folgende Begruendung dazu, die ich hier mal wiedergebe: (FAQ-artige Mails darf ich hier bestimmt zitieren :-) Rueckfrage aus USA: --Zitatanfang-- Es gibt Organisationen, die jaehrlich zehntausende von Dollars ausgeben, __eben um__ in der Lage zu sein, schnell und zuverlaessig grosse Packet-Mengen (etwa Farbfotos) um die Welt zu befoerdern, die dann dem Normalbuerger via Presse zugaenglich gemacht werden. Hey, what's the problem with that? --Zitatende-- Veras Antwort: --Zitatanfang-- Wenn diese Organisationen wirklich in der Lage sind, Mails solcher Groessenordnung *zuverlaessig* zu verschicken, dann ist das voellig unproblematisch. Und wenn man - wie in Amerika ueblich - an einer T3-Leitung haengt, dann ist es in der Tat kein (technisches) Problem. Ich bezog mich absichtlich auf die drei oben angefuehrten Leitungs- typen: WiN-Leitung: Das sind bei den meisten Organisationen 64K-Leitungen, die sehr langsam sind und auch gelegentlich (kurzzeitige) Stoerungen aufweisen. Wenn dann sehr viele sehr grosse Mails uebrtragen werden sollen, dann ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit sehr gross, dass waehrend der Uebertragung eine sol- che Stoerung auftritt, was dazu fuehrt, dass die Mail noch mal von An- fang an (!) uebertragen werden muss. Ist die Leitung sehr instabil, so kann es geschehen, dass eine Mail von z.B. 1.5 MB dafuer sorgt, dass so lange gar keine Mail zum Zielhost uebertragen werden kann, bis der Postmaster dies bemerkt und eingreift, da der Mailer ja staendig versucht, die 1.5MB-Mail in einem Stueck zu uebertragen. Transatlantik-Leitungen: Im Prinzip gilt das oben Gesagte auch fuer diese Leitungen, nur dass man zusaetzlich noch mehr Leute schaedigt, da die Leitungen ja von vielen Organisationen genutzt werden und unsinnige (weil dann eben doch irgend- wann abgebrochene) Transfers belasten die Leitungen voellig unnoetig. UUCP-Leitungen: Das sind im Normalfall Modemverbindungen ueber Telefonleitungen. Da ist es nicht ungewoehnlich, dass Leitungen so schlecht sind, dass man nicht stundenlang ununterbrochen uebertragen kann. Auch hier wird (meistens) das gesamte Paket von vorn uebertragen, was ebenfalls verhindert, dass andere Mails/News uebertragen werden koennen. Hinzu kommt, dass hier oft Privatleute oder kleine Firmen betroffen sind, die natuerlich nicht sehr erfreut sind, wenn sie deshalb extrem viel Geld an die Telefon- gesellschaft zahlen muessen. (soetwas kommt immer wieder auch mal in den News zur Sprache, wenn mal wieder jemand ein GIF am Stueck und nicht gesplittet gepostet hat oder aehnliches) Ich bin (einer der) Postmaster unseres zentralen Mailservers und alle dieser Faelle haben wir hier schon erlebt und entsprechend viel Arbeit mit gehabt. Daher bin ich nicht sehr erfreut, wenn jemand zum Versenden grosser Mails aufruft, zumal in den meisten Faellen nicht einzusehen ist, warum der Absender die Mail nicht mit einem der gaengigen Tools gesplittet hat. Leider fallen insbesondere NeXT-User in dieser Hinsicht unangenehm auf, vermutlich weil sie sich gar nciht darueber im Klaren sind, welche Probleme das bei instabilen/langsamen Leitungen hervor- rufen kann. Ich hoffe, diese Ausfuehrungen erlaeutern mein (kurzes) posting aus- reichend.

I'm integrating products from several companies to provide a high-quality embedded controller type of base platform which will serve as the topic of several articles slated to appear in Electronics Now magazine. It's a commercial grade package yet reasonably cheap. It is feasible to offer assembled versions (sans expansion modules) eventually for $250.00 with moderate volumes. The reason I'm writing is that I'm looking for hardware/software developers to help me move the product to market quickly. I eventually plan to design some specific modules myself, but right now my time is mostly tied up in all the other facets that go into pulling the project together. The platform uses an 80C186EC CPU. It's great for hobbyists familiar with the 80x86 family. It's very sophisticated. It has 512K of dynamic, 64-128K of static, and 64-128K of ROM or boot-block flash ROM (voltage shifter for flash programming built in). It's all in a 6" x 8" package. The product is compact, yet allows two other 6" x 8" cards to be stacked underneath the base platform. It can be mounted vertically or horizontally. It is all CMOS construction, and has a top-notch prototyping area. I'm working with several other companies to provide some interesting options; embedded BIOS and a C compiler for example. I already have communication/debugging software. Your company can be responsible for sales of your modules, or they could be bundled with my kit . There is a good opportunity for publication of articles concerning your modules, but I cannot speak for the magazine. If you are interested, you would be required to purchase an assembled base platform from me. This would cost $500.00, and include documentation. I'm not trying to sell you a board so much, but rather I have a small company and cannot afford to *give* systems to interested developers. However, I would be willing to make the $500.00 refundable if you wish to return an undamaged board when finished with the project. I also can offer time-limited technical assistance because it is to my advantage to get these modules developed as quickly as possible. Please drop me some email if interested. Regards, R.D. Warner

Virtuoso is a famous (but slow) software, but there's one LITTLE problem: A Virtuoso-created document, including german umlauts is printable without any problems at the NeXT-laserprinter. But I have to exposure my documets at an external Lino 300. All Linotype-service bureaus around Frankfurt are using funny little MacIntosh's to download printing-jobs to their Lino. So I tried to print my Virtuoso-documents in a file (print - save) to get a "virtuoso.ps". This file I sent to my exposurer and he tried to download it to his Lino-machine. He was able to exposure the document - but without the german umlauts. Instead of them I've got ASCII-codes on my film! The only workaround I know is to change every text to curves in any Virtuoso-document before sending it to an exposure-bureau. That couldn't be the right way! There must be another chance to create "real" PostScript without doing this mess. As I know the same problem apears by transferring Virtuoso-created imgages to FrameMaker documents using "cut-copy-and-paste". Trying this, I get the same result - no umlauts, but ASCII-codes. Is there anybody out there who could give me a hint? Please answer by e-mail - at the moment I'm not able to read News every day - I have to change lots of text to curves!

Extrapolating the speed of VGA mode operation to linear mode operation in a straightforward way will yield incorrect results. The S3-805 has a major problem even when running in linear mode that renders it slower than one might suspect. Namely, it uses DRAM for display memory (instead of VRAM). The slowdown from this is most apparent when dragging a window on screen since you are both reading from and writing to the DRAM video memory at the same time it is being contended for to clock out pixels. The 3.2 window server will probably be better at handling this and make window dragging faster. The S3-805 operates in both 1024x768x8bit gray and 800x600x12 bit color. While its not the fastest, I find it acceptable in either of these modes. A couple of other notes. The DELL DGX (Jaws) runs at 1120x834 and the QVision only does 1280x1024 in 8 bit gray mode. Furthermore, the QVision is currently not available in a VESA or PCI version. The best you can do is an EISA card. This limits its overall performance. In my personal experience, the best performing framebuffers are the JAWS and the Wingine. Unfortunately, both of these are tied to specific machines. That is, you can't just by these in card form and plug them into the machine of your choosing. Joe Pasqua
From: mdd@zeke.Rockefeller.EDU (Mark D. Doyle) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc Subject: Help needed with NeXTSTEP solution Message-ID: <1993Aug4.175217.7081@rockyd.rockefeller.edu> Organization: Rockefeller University Date: Wed, 4 Aug 93 17:52:17 EDT I need some guidance in selecting some hardware to run NS/FIP. The situation is rather involved so here is some background. First, I am a postdoc in theoretical physics who is fortunate enough to own my own NeXTstation Turbo which I love. NeXTSTEP (or however it is spelled these days) provides the ideal computing solution for theoretical physicists who need good networking (email, ftp, gopher, usenet news), friendly user interfaces, TeX, Mathematica or Maple, Unix utilities, etc. Upon my arrival here at Rockefeller I was somewhat chagrined to see that my branch of the theory group subsists by piggybacking itself on the VAX cluster belonging to our experimentalist friends downstairs. Access is solely through VT100 terminals. Needless to say, this current set-up does not really meet any of the needs of the theorists. We are now in the process of moving to another building that will physically separate us even further from the VAX cluster and I think it is the perfect opportunity to divorce ourselves from the experimentalists and to move into 1990's computing especially since computer services wants to charge $20/month/VT100 for use of a terminal server to connect up the VT100's (about 10 of them) to the VAXen. Our problem is that we don't have a lot of money so we can't just buy workstations for everyone. We do have about $6-7,000 now though. Eventually we will be able to put 486 boxes on everyone's desks. Until then, we need an interim solution and this is what I need guidance on. My proposed interim solution is to get one fast 486 server class machine that runs NS and that will be available for general use. The idea is to initially use it as a terminal server. People can telnet to the VAX cluster through the server and then as we find some money, build up a network of machines running NS around this one machine and do away with the VT100's completely. The reason for still using the VAX is that people will need to be weened off of VMS slowly. The plan is to avoid flushing money down the toilet by paying computer services for something that doesn't improve our lot. Anyway, I need some help fleshing out the details since I know little about the PC world. So here are some questions: 0) Is there such a thing as a server class PC? Reliability is reasonably important. 1) What vendors sell server class machines (with edu discounts) and provide good service? 2) What solutions are there for providing up to ten serial ports for such a machine? I have heard of the SLAT-1 (now 2?) boxes that can hang off off the SCSI bus, but are there drivers needed for it, or does the SCSI driver take care of that already? Is there a better way? How many connections can they provide? Will they work painlessly on an Intel machine? 3) The more RAM the merrier. What is a comfortable amount of RAM so that five or six simultaneous telnet sessions won't drag the machine? 32Meg to begin with? 4) I suppose another solution would be to buy some NeXT's, but are there vendors who are selling NeXT equipment with edu discounts and accept purchase orders? One problem with this might be that a fast 486 might be better as a fileserver when the future network rolls around. 5) Are there any vendors who are now selling NS installed? I can probably do it myself, but I don't think I know enough about hardware to talk to some salesperson who doesn't even know what NS is. I would be grateful for any and all suggestions on how to improve this solution and make it work. And please feel free to tell me if I am missing any important considerations. It really would be nice to convert yet another physics dept. to NeXTSTEP. Unfortunately, this is an off year with no more NeXT's being made and no HP's with NS. Please email me and I will post a summary. Thanks in advance. Mark Doyle mdd@zeke.rockefeller.edu P.S. Anyone know a reason why I might not be able to post using NG, but I can post using rn?

Yes - We received 13 copies from NACSCorp - Academic packages. All 13 packages have both user and developer disks fogged. The coating seems slightly sticky, also. I used Windex also and a soft cloth and got the disks to read. I called NeXT and informed them of the problem - I am really disappointed in NeXT - We are not terribly inconvenienced but this incident seems to be one more tiny way in which NeXT is trying to kill its great software.

(in some way) I knew all these PC (or Mac, or Atari) user friendly interupt handlers they use to call OS. I always wanted a decent machine on my desk. And the first moment I had a chance to get something like MacIntosh+UNIX*OOPS I hit the road and went buying one. Cost really did matter, but only to a degree.

He's not talking about AFS, although Alex also comes from CMU (admittedly, it's based on some preexisting Aussie code). Alex is a FTP-to-NFS translator. Same basic goal as Touch, but a much better implementation. Of course, trying to use FTP this way is intrinsically wrong (it doesn't have anywhere near the right semantics), but that doesn't stop people from trying. :-) Look around on alex.sp.cs.cmu.edu if you're curious. -=EPS=-

Is this what one wants? No, this is not what one wants. But yes, that is my implication. This raises an incredibly interesting issue, though (upon which I will elaborate, as is my wont :-) In the world of "general purpose computing platforms", for some reason the tradition has evolved that one company makes the platform (hardware/OS), and other companies, known as "third parties", make the software that everybody uses. This is rather a bizarre situation in some ways, but is necessary because no one company can provide all the solutions. It is important to note that perhaps the ONLY reason that the third-party situation exists is that the platform companies can't do everything themselves. The reason I mention this is that Microsoft may well not be in that position any more, and it's becoming increasingly the case that they provide both the environment and the applications, but that's a digression. NeXT provides a platform, and other companies provide the application software. This is the traditional model. It is a very symbiotic model, in that there is an extremely tight relationship between the growth of the platform and the growth of the third-party applications. Each side affects the others in very compelling ways. Sometimes people find out about the applications (especially if they're unique) and buy the platform to run them (PageMaker in the early days, Photoshop today). Sometimes people buy the platform because it's great, then shop for applications, finding the third party stuff later. Both happen, both are good, but it's highly give-and-take. At the start, NeXT had a computer with no applications, so they set out to get good applications running on their platform. There were many willing players who recognized the value in what NeXT provided. These included Adobe, Lotus, Frame, WordPerfect, Quark (remember, they were up on stage at the 2.0 rollout), and lots of little guys like RightBrain. Apps were built, but it was a time-consuming process. All in all, it didn't happen fast enough, or NeXT didn't grow the installed base fast enough, or something, because after several years, they've all abandoned NeXT and gone somewhere else. The reason? Not enough volume. That's the ONLY reason. If there were volume, they'd stay interested (with the possible exception of Frame, who seems to be enduring financial difficulty unrelated to the NeXT market). That's the way the game works. Volume. Providing a platform is a chicken-and-egg situation, where nobody wants to buy the platform until the apps are there, and nobody wants to develop the apps unless the platform is doing well. In my opinion, NeXT blew it 2-3 years ago by not riding the wave of applications into strong sales. They're not entirely responsible, since the computer market in general was sluggish and hardware was in kind of a slump, but nonetheless, you only get that opportunity once, and it has now gone by. I actually believe it was a lack of sustained marketing, or focused marketing, or perhaps marketing at all. Who knows. It doesn't really matter; it just happened that way. Today there is LESS software available (for Intel, particularly) than ever before. Luckily for NeXT, their strategy no longer depends on it, because they are not as much a "general purpose" computing platform. Your comment was that apps should be priced low so the platform can take off in volume, but it's not as simple as that. They both have to hold hands and take off together. If the apps are priced low and the platform doesn't take off, the app companies all fold up (or cancel their NeXT development) because of a lack of sales. Lotus GAVE AWAY Improv, for example. You can't get much lower cost than that. But NeXT did not give away their hardware, and the match burned out before the fire caught. Lotus is not currently developing for NEXTSTEP any more. Now, in the middle of 1993, the market for third-party applications is especially tough. NeXT has been holding steady with its Mission-Critical App development message for quite some time now, which may be increasing the health and sales of NeXT, Inc., but it's not providing as good a market for third-party applications. NeXT, in my opinion, is behaving in a Darwinian fashion (or perhaps a Lord of the Flies fashion), saving itself at any cost, and part of that cost may be the health of the third-party market. Unfortunately, their health may be short-term, because long-term they will need third-party applications to provide good business solutions for their customers. Again, they can't do it all themselves. NeXT has attempted to marry its mission-critical strategy with a harmonious strategy for third-party apps, but it does not market NEXTSTEP to end users, who are [typically] the primary market for third parties. NeXT does not advertise to, market to, or even encourage individual users. They do not compete against Macintosh, they do not compete against Windows, they do not compete against Atari or any other single-user desktop environment. They compete for large network sales to corporations who develop their own in-house apps. These companies may or may not want a copy of TIFFany or RightBrain Rulers or Lotus Improv or whatever. So yes, you're right that higher-priced software somewhat restricts the ability of the platform to grow, but there are different heads in the noose, so to speak. If you price software high, you might make a little bit of money off the existing customers (those who are not price-sensitive). If you price an app low, you might make more money, but you might make less. And it's much easier to lower a price than to raise it. It's not the responsibility of a third party to guarantee a growth path for the platform, nor is it the responsibility of the platform to guarantee growth for the third parties. It's an organic, symbiotic relationship (usually). -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Electronic Frontier Foundation, member #054

No, I'm not talking about AFS. I'm talking about ALEX. Let's chant together now: * A * L * E * X * I've got a bunch of e-mail asking for this, so I did a little digging and came up a README for alex. You can get the alex distribution from CMU. FTP addresses are included below. I can't believe however that so few in the NeXT community hadn't heard of this. Anyway please post results on the success with using alex and the FileManager. Enjoy! ---- 8< ---- Start: README ------------ Alex is a filesystem that lets users access files in FTP sites around the world just like they access local files. The source for Alex is in the src directory. You can try Alex out by doing the following as root: mkdir /alex mount -o timeo=30,retrans=300,rsize=1000,soft,intr alex.sp.cs.cmu.edu:/ /alex If you can not become root, you can FTP to alex.sp.cs.cmu.edu and do a "cd /alex" (or "cd alex"). However, this is not nearly as nice a demo. If you like Alex and want to use it regularly, please get a local server running so that my server does not become totally overloaded. readmes is a wais database server (also called ftpable-readmes). It has indexed a large number of readme files out in Alex. There are more than 25,000 readme files (I got most of the names from some nice guy on the Archie project but some using Alex). Below is the information you need for your wais client: Host: alex.sp.cs.cmu.edu Port: 210 Database: readmes If you do not have wais take a look at alt.wais on netnews or FTP to wais.think.com. -- Vince Cate keywords: Alex, readmes, filesystem, FTP, database, wais, Alexandria, transparent FTP access master for this file: /alex/edu/cmu/cs/sp/alex/README (alex.sp.cs.cmu.edu:README for non Alex users) ---- 8< ---- End: README ------------ >David Lemson (217) 244-1205 -Mike -- Mike Henry INET : mihe@enea.se /// Box 232 /// S-183 23 Taby TEL : +46 8 792-2500 \\\/// SWEDEN TFX : +46 8 768-4388 \XX/

It works fine for me, responding quickly and correctly 95% of the time. Have you trained Simon well? You might try choosing 4 or even 5 eaxmples of your command during training. Also the built-in mike doesn't work as well as a headset or other external mike (I have a cheap Radio Shack mike that works quite well).

So far it's worked like a charm as far as []printing is concerned but there is one problem with screen previewing []using TeXView.

TeXView []does not generate any warning messages at all. Am I doing something []wrong or is TeXView screwing up ? Any help is appreciated. My guess is you are encountering a bug in the NeXT font cache which Tom Rokicki and I spent (LITERALLY!!) weeks tracking down. It seems that the font Ohlfs has a completely screwy UniqueID, something that someone must have just made up one day, and if you start using too many PS fonts in a variety of applications you will eventually mess up the font cache. I first found this bug because I've switched to 100% Postscript TeX fonts, meaning the corruption was far more likely to occur. It turns out that how the bug manifests itself is extremely context dependent (i.e. it depends on what apps you have running, what fonts they cache and in what order, etc.) and that is why it took us so long to track it down. Since you are using lots of PS fonts in your TeXing then this corrupted font cache is probably at fault. I have a file for generating the bug in a specific way, and also a fix which seems to work just fine, but both are on a machine which will not be up until Monday (we're moving all of our computers to a new room). Will post the relevant information then. In the meantime, if the bug really bothers you I suggest you stop using Ohlfs for any application and reboot your machine. That should solve the problem. By the way, the fact that it is only your screen fonts that are messed up is purely a matter of luck based on your font caching arrangement. I had the same situation for a long time and tolerated it, but one day it was the *printed* versions that were messed up and that was when Rokicki and I decided enough was enough and tracked the sucker down.

(sorry) We're selling a printer-driver, called "Dots", which allows you to output to many non-PostScript printing devices, including the HP Deskjet 500C. Dots uses NEXTSTEP Display PostScript to generate high quality PostScript output. Printers that are connected with Dots are available throughout the network, just like the NeXT Laserprinter. Currently there are four different categories: Dots monochrome supports Epson 24 dot matrix printers (and compatible) NEC 24 dot matrix printers (and compatible) IBM Proprinter XL24 AGM (and compatible) HP PCL II, III, V Canon BJ-300/330 (and compatible) Canon BJ-10/10e/10ex (and compatible) HP LaserJet II, III, IV (and compatible) HP DeskJet 500, 510 Dots color supports HP Deskjet 500C HP Deskjet 550C HP Deskjet 1200C HP Paintjet XL300 Dots CLC10 supports scanning and printing on the CJ 10 Canon Color Copier. Dots CLC500 supports scanning and printing on the CLC300 and CLC500 Canon Color Copiers. All versions require NEXTSTEP 3.0 or NEXTSTEP 3.1. Dots Version 3.3 or higher supports both Intel and Motorola CPUs. Here are the list prices for the Dots driver package (per printer): Europe International Dots monochrome 198 DM 149 Dollars Dots color 298 DM 199 Dollars Dots CLC10 1.398 DM 799 Dollars Dots CLC500 1.998 DM 1,199 Dollars IMPORTANT: If you are using NEXTSTEP on non-NeXT hardware, you must add the cost of a PostScript output license, which is (or will soon be) available from NeXT. Our current information is that the license fee for printers with a suggested US retail price below 1,000 dollars is 50 dollars. The HP Deskjet 500C and 550C are in that category. So the total cost for the printer driver (Dots + PostScript output license) would be 249 dollars. Dots is available from many NeXT resellers and distributors. Our Austrian distributor is Hard & Soft NeXTcenter, Vienna Our US distributor is Alembic Systems International, Englewood, Colorado d'ART Software GmbH Virchowstrasse 17-19 22767 Hamburg Germany (++49) 40-38023-0 (++49) 40-38023-290 fax

We recently discovered we have a huge inventory of them that are just sitting, and Vivid has asked us to offer a huge fire sale to try to reduce the inventory. Here's the scoop. TypeView is normally $129, but we're going to fire sale them for only $25. We've got a lot of them, but they may go pretty fast at this price. Here's a quick overview of TypeView's capabilities: Provides several "views" to look at characters sets of fonts Lets you compare fonts to each other visually Lets you copy/paste characters from symbolic fonts Lets you get at UNENCODED characters that are otherwise unaccessable Provides services for use with other applications This is a really great application.

EDU RETAIL PasteUp: $199 $149 $795 We got a really great response to our 50% off sale last month, and it led us to an interesting observation. We had previously lowered the Educational price of PasteUp to $299, and during the 50% off sale it was only $149. Almost ALL of our sales last month were to educational people, evidently because we broke below a magic price barrier for a lot of people. That made us think that maybe a lot of people want to buy it, but haven't been able to convince themselves to spend the money for it. So this month we're extending the educational price of $149 for one more month for PasteUp, continuing to sell Adobe fonts at 50% off retail, and we're going to try reducing the price of regular old PasteUp from $795 to only $199 for the rest of this month to see whether it's simply price sensitivity or whether there really are a lot more educational people on the net than everybody else. This is a 75% discount! You can't possibly pass it up if you're even remotely interested in PasteUp. Our margins are very thin at this price, but we'd like to have a larger installed base, so we're willing to give it a shot.

One mail was from a user who uses it to move bewteen news articles. One was some smtp forged mail from Hal 9000 who informed me that he could not open the pod bay dor... The third was a particularly nasty piece of mail from Gordon VanHuizen. The four news followups consisted of a user who uses it mainly as a shortcut for those long emacs commands, another uses it for lauching apps, starting sequences of commands, etc.. One person did sound like he used it quite often, but did not enumerate his use of the product. I still stand behind my belief that a simple macro app like QuicKeys would do the trick just as well (much better in my case for some reason) without the environmental limitations. I still think that for the approximately $270 I spent on an Audio-Technica Pro-8 microphone and SimonSays I could have purchased around eighteen music compact discs and immensely enjoyed listening to them at high volume while working. However, because I don't think I am generally a bad-sport who enjoys taking pot-shots at products I will give SimonSays another chance. I'm going to re-train everything 5 times (as suggested by a SimonSays user). I'm going to get a new XLR->head-set jack adaptor just in case this one is adding noise that affects recognition. I am NOT going to play disc 3 of the Led Zeppelen box set while using SimonSays, no matter how tempting. I will post a complete report in a couple of weeks. I'll try to be as objective as possible. The version I have is 1.1a. If there is a newer version I would very much like to get upgrade information so this test can be fair. Also, I would also like to give lots of credit to Greg Cockcroft and all of the other people who worked on SimonSays. It is by no stretch of the imagination a bad product. It's quite nicely done with a slick user interface, and is very stable (I was a beta tester for a while as well, so I used to work with SimonSays quite a bit), and Greg was always quick with fixes, sometimes compiling special versions for me. I just don't think the recognition is good enough to be useful (and it's a tad slow). andrew (In My Time of Dying...) -- andrew@cubetech.com | "We cannot dwell in the time that is to come, Andrew Loewenstern | lest we lose our now for a phantom of our Cube Technologies, Inc. | own design." - Erendis finger me for my pgp public key

There is one little problem left: When I start X as root, everything works; when I start X from a different account, I only have one mouse button available. The settings for root are left button = Button1, right button = Buttonr3, both buttons = Button2. I checked with xev and xmodmap, and somehow the same code (usually "Button1") is returned for everything. The fact that it works for root made me think that this might be a problem with the permissions in /dev. By the way, which one is the driver for the mouse in /dev?

In my opinion, people don't want to talk to their computers, and they don't want their computers talking to them. They don't know this in advance, however, and thus people think voice activation and response is one of the next big things. Only HAL-level interaction is useful. We aren't likely to see that very soon. The key factor is the number of mistakes in interpretation made by the system. It has to be really, really small in order for humans to tolerate it. What if I said "What?" after every 100th or so word you said? It would drive you nuts, and you would avoid talking to me eventually.

Does PasteUp do this or is it an over-glorified Edit? PasteUp is a full-featured DTP page layout application. It has a very sophisticated text engine, full support for imported graphics, full rotation, scaling, and skewing of all objects (including text), hyphenation, spell checking, drag-and-drop paragraph styles, full color support, and lots more. It does not have an equation editor. It also does not automatically number anything except pages (although the page numbering is very flexible). We didn't want to compete directly with FrameMaker at the time, so we didn't implement some of the numbering and cross-referencing kinds of things. Instead, we did a lot of things they didn't, like provide for rotation, use of color, separations, and things like that. It's definitely more than a glorified Edit (if you want a glorified Edit, we're working on that too; it'll be called ExactlyWrite, and it's just a simple word processor. It will ship hopefully in a couple of months). We'll send you a brochure or more information if you like.

Icon works fine under both 3.0 and 3.1. Use a patched Icon and get the 2.1 resources it need. 2. An easier method without Icon: tifftopnm test.tiff | ppmquant 256 | pnmtotiff -none > test2.tiff tifftopnm, ppmquant and pnmtotiff are pbmplus utilities. The above sequence produces an 8bit tiff file that can be opened with NIH Image on the Mac. You have to set filetype to TIFF first. - Barre Ludvigsen

Nope. None. Zero. Zilch. NEXTSTEP (and pretty much all UNIX- based systems) are IMMUNE from computer viruses because they have hardware, memory, and file protection features that "toy" "operating systems" (e.g. DOS, Windoze, MacOS) lack. At worse, a UNIX virus might attack your personal files, but it couldn't touch the system itself, or any of its components. You are at risk if you use emulation software such as SoftPC or Executor, but since those will run the usual anti-virus software as well as the usual viruses, they're no better or worse than the environments they emulate. I would advise NeXT users to create a separate user id to run questionable software under-- that way it can't cause trouble no matter how much mischief it attempts.

True, in the hands of trained professionals, but it must be noted that any package you install as userid "root" can do anything it wants to. The installation instructions for some packages do require the user to logon as root (often for understandable reasons), and if something is running from userid root then it can do pretty much the same kind of damage that a Mac or DOS virus can do. Note that it's anything you run as user root that would have this ability (including programs that are setuid root, of course). Thus you might log into root to install a perfectly valid package, but if you run some other program "while you're there" then that other program could very well do nasty stuff to you -- if it were so inclined. So it'd be considered pretty stupid practice to run freebee games picked up off the net while you're logged onto root. While Unix systems are much less susceptible to viruses, it's certainly not out of the question, despite what the above comments imply. It's just a lot more work for the malicious user, and it requires a little complacency on the part of the "administrator" of the NeXT -- which for many NeXT's is a person who is not a unix computer whiz (and thus may be somewhat complacent). And this is probably as good a time as any to mention that if your NeXT is not on the network, then you should not turn on the Preference called "Public Window Server" in the Unix window of Preferences.app. If that's on, and if your NeXT is reachable via the network, then it's possible for someone to run a program which would do a very adept imitation of a destructive virus. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

I'm pleased to hear that, since we'll be coming out with one this fall. It'll cost significantly less than Simon.

Everybody's mileage varies. Speech recognition isn't a terribly mature technology.

I'd love to tweak a program like Spasm so that students could verbally interact to learn better diction and placement. Simon could even be used to define any word within a book on CD-ROM using the mouse macros to access digital Webster. The main hang up I've had has been in training Simon. Training Simon is a problem since most of my students have limited english speaking and reading skills. Even when I speak clearly I have to be very assertive to Simon or he won't listen up. But then again I don't have the use of a headset mic yet. Its still a problem none the less since one goal is to speak better english in addition to expanding vocabulary. I also wonder how well Simon would work on a DOS 286 machine since most computerlabs in our district are comprised of them. Expecting Simon to work on a network is probably wishful thinking huh. As far as a headset choice goes on black hardware; I don't see the point in getting the "best" mic, especially since the resolution is 8-bit. My concerns are based upon durability, weight, and price. And in that respect I'd probably go with $10 telephone headset--swap meet bargain basement stuff. I suppose one could always go with a chordless top of the line headset in the 1K range but who needs that. Besides, if you drop, sit on or step on--and you will--the $10 headset who's gonna care. Splurge, buy two. See ya, maurices

Until recently, I had always left mine at the very bottom, like a good school boy just doing as he was told. Recently, I finally got tired of the "long trip" all the way to the bottom. I decided to move it up to the fourth position from the top of the dock (black hardware.) My shelf has two rows, so the positioning works out perfectly for the recycler. When I want to recycle something all it takes is a tiny little movement to the right and the deed is done. It took a few hours or so to become accustomed to the new location, but now it feels natural and seems to work out fine. Anybody else experimented with this already, or am I starting a trend? :-)

I wouldn't blame NeXT for a manufacturing problem like that. I've purchased commercial CDs with the same problem. What they could be blamed for is if they let it continue and don't inform their vendor. Plants to make these are most certainly shrink wrapping the whole package. Now - when I looked I saw an area that was not fogged. Sort of eliptical. Lo and behold, on the CD case itself there is a small serial number label. And the placement looks like it could be the same. And my developer disk was okay. The difference is the plastic in the OS was black while the developer was white. I suspect it may be out-gassing from the plastic cases, and the serial number limited the coating in that area. All it takes is a vendor who supplies a chemical to make an insignificant change (he thought) that causes problems with your formulation. I saw this happen when I worked in a recording studio and Ampex came an pulled all of our tape stock because it got sticky. A vendor had changes a component they used to make the binder, and reacted adversely to other chemicals in the binder. Don't blame NeXT, they didn't make the disk, but get them to fix them however. -- Bill Vermillion - bill@bilver.uucp OR bill@bilver.oau.org

Something that's compliant with NS GUI standards would be nice too. I thought Pages by Pages would fill this need, but are they shipping yet? Last I heard it was "coming soon" but I haven't heard a single word from anyone who has it. NeXTWORLD magazine got a version of it (perhaps beta, I don't have the article in front of me) and someone wrote an article about it, but I don't recall it being a full-fledged review. If someone else has an urge to write a regular and long-document DTP app to relieve Frame, I highly suggest supporting Frame's file formats. Supporting old data is a trend I think more NS apps need to start taking up since it only gives people who have something worth keeping a reason to switch to one's app. In my opinion, the better apps can reliably load and save documents in a variety of widely used formats (even formats that don't have direct apps on that platform). I would love to see a DTP program that could at least read Frame, Pagemaker, Quark, WordPerfect (any version) and MS Word 4.x and 5.x documents completely (save Quicktime insertions) and reliably. -- J.B.

From all my indications, Pages does not look like something you'd layout a 200 page manual in, and I would *love* to be told otherwise.

(long, was Chickens and Eggs :-) Message-ID: <CBFMD0.ELv@aardvark.rain.com> Summary: Netters offer advice, NS/FIP now installed! Keywords: hold your mouth right, cross your fingers :-) Organization: Steve's UNIX System, Portland, Oregon Date: Sun, 8 Aug 1993 08:31:46 GMT Well, I'm really happy to say that I managed to get NS/FIP installed on my Gateway 2000! And I want to thank all the kind folks who sent email with suggestions and encouragement: j-weiss@nwu.edu mitch@ella.mills.edu tacchi@cc.umanitoba.ca ridgway@inls3.ucsd.edu cedman@lynx.ps.uci.edu austin@netcom.com ian_stewart@pyrian.com dean@rdcalr.realdec.com gpmenos@firestone.princeton.edu One of the above is a NeXT employee, who very kindly offered to let me call him at work for assistance!! I really appreciate the offer, but thankfully I'm up and running now (but if you don't mind random Fanatics calling up and raving about how NeXT should reopen the hardware division, I'd be glad to call! :-). I had posted the "chicken and egg" problem. If I left the floppy in I couldn't get to the CD-ROM drive, but if I left the CD-ROM out of the drive I obviously couldn't mount it as the root device to do the install... Well, although I'm extremely grateful to those who responded, many with good suggestions, as it turns out, none of you were right. :-) This is one of those "hold your mouth just right, and wait for the planets to align, and try something really *silly* because it just might work" kind of fixes. The CD-ROM drive was just a little odd, or it didn't like my Adaptec board, or maybe NeXT's install floppy was doing something strange. (Not sure if this is something for "bug_next"?) Basically, I had to Put the NS/FIP CD in the caddy, but not insert it; Boot the machine, and wait until *just the right moment*, (right after the second "Resetting SCSI bus..." message), and Pop that sucker in and cross my fingers! As my recollection of SCSI protocol is rather fuzzy, the gist of this problem was that the NS installer wasn't being patient, OR the drive was just a little slow on the uptake. I got errors from the SCSI controller that led me to believe that the drive was essentially "off line", so I gambled that if I popped the CD in at just the right time, perhaps everything would jive. It did. So if you're trying to use a Sun-provided CD-ROM for your NS install maybe this is a useful tidbit. :-) A hunch. Blind luck. Whatever. I now have NeXTSTEP on this damned PC, and for now, Life Is Good. :-) HOWEVER, Is it just me, or does everyone with an ATI Ultra Pro get those horrible lines across the left edge of the display? I've tried all the available resolutions and refresh rates, but there are strange tick marks (and they change when I move or scroll things, they aren't just static) at evenly spaced intervals along the left side... I haven't had any keyboard related problems whatsoever, since I had installed the W7 jumper as mentioned here on the net a while ago. The mouse hung completely after the first reboot from the hard disk, but I managed to sorta almost use just the keyboard to log out cleanly, and that problem hasn't reoccured. (Yes, I crashed the machine and took my chances. :-) I also got bit by one of the documented Pro Audio Spectrum sound card bugs, which was quite humorous: I set my system beep sound to the bullfrog (NeXT still has a marvelous sense of fun, I suspect :-) and launched the 3D Reality demo I'd copied from the Third Party CD-ROM. Welp, they say that in some circumstances the card will get stuck and keep playing the same sound over and over and over again... The croaking bullfrog had me in stitches... but the only workaround I've found is to reboot when that happens, which is kind of a pain. As for speed...well, if I had any money I'd load this thing up with RAM, first of all. But I *really* miss the extra real-estate I enjoyed on our beloved Black Hardware. And even a poor old 25MHz '040 seemed to do a *much* better job shoving the bits around on-screen than this supposedly faster PC... I guess the world is doomed to be memory and i/o bound, like us humans. Time to swap out, head off to bed, and dream of an '060 daughterboard for my cube...

I hardly use Simon, though, since it's almost always faster for me to type things than for Simon to recognize them. The only instance where this isn't true is launching an app that isn't on the Dock or EngageDock.. but I haven't had a lot of time recently to bother setting up Simon to be effective. Now, one thing I've also noticed is that Simon is probably MUCH more effective the higher your voice is (and the more distinctly you pronounce your words). My voice is LOW.. and I get the feeling that Simon is trying to distinguish between a lot of rumbling noises :-) When I tried test-training some things in a higher voice, I had no problems at all. Unfortunately I'm not going to talk in falsetto all the time just so I can talk to my computer :-\ Just some thoughts. Eric

I bought FrameMaker back when it came on OD (2.0 with a free upgrade to 3.0), and have found it to be a very powerful, well documented, portable (i.e. I could share source documents with colleagues on Macs and other UNIX boxes), but it's somewhat clunky interface, crappy eqn editor, lack of rtf understanding, and drift from the NeXTSTEP market have finally driven me to alternatives. I've been at SIGGRAPH all last week, and haven't had a chance to play with my new copy of PasteUp as much as I'd like, but I'm looking forward to writing this semester's papers in it...

I still like the old "spelling" best) on it. Thanks to the many helpful posts about the idiosyncracies of this system, in particular the one by Paul Sears, the installation went pretty straightforwardly. The only problem is that at the end of it all the mouse is completely dead --- odd since it works just fine in the intermediate steps needed to get the OS installed. As per Paul's post, I gave me a password, then became root, used the arrow keys to open a terminal and Edited the file /usr/Devices/System.config/Instance0.table and removed the PS2Mouse entry from the boot drivers, and then rebooted. Still dead. The Turbo button was never ennabled "which I assume means, "pushed in" at any time in the installation or boot process. I'm completely stymied at this point and actively seeking help from someone willing to offer it. Paul's post was from mid-June, and I've not paid much attention to the Gateway related threads in the interim, so perhaps there is an update as to what causes this problem with the Mickey Mouse? Another question: what is the Gateway equivalent to command-command-~ on black hardware? Have needed to do a couple of hard reboots already and would like to avoid that in the future.

Nicholson-Owens And, by the way, whoever decides to write this puppy should remember that software that does ALL of these things won't be worth more than $99 ($49 educational pricing, of course) so don't _even_ think about trying to sell an app that does all of these things for an outrageously high price like, say, $199. A $495 price tag is absolutely out of the question. It better be perfect the first time, and run like a bat out of hell on an 030 cube with 8 MB of RAM, too. For $99, it must also feature 24 hour/day 800 line unlimited support, come complete with a tons of manuals, instructional video tapes, and format templates for every conceivable purpose. Oh yeah, potential developer, please remember that if you're going to charge a whopping $99 for this trivial app, you must be prepared to provide lifetime upgrades for free, including adding support for all future file formats for any app whether it runs under NS or not. Otherwise, I'm sorry to say, it just won't be worth $99 to me. Mr. Developer, if you're thinking about complaining about the impossibility of providing Quark import capabilities for your $99 app, forget it. If I'm going to have to sacrifice THIS amount of money, you damn well better have full Quark capabilites built in to version 1.0. Just remember this: if you try to raise your price too high, I won't buy it because I could write something better for less or just use some of the terriffic free software from the archives. Lots of luck writing this replacement for Frame. John Bartley

Could you list what configuration you purchased and what worked and did not work for running NEXTSTEP. I've been impressed by the features and price of the GATEWAY 2000 computers, but I was not 100% convinced by their tech support that they are certain what will work with NEXTSTEP. And I also don't want to base my purchase on the configuration guide put out by NEXTSTEP. I couldn't use that guide even if I wanted to, since it doesn't even include any information about CD-ROM players. No, I would really prefer some first-hand experience about this. ---- MR_B@LMSC.LOCKHEED.COM Brian Mahoney

True, not 100%, however I've had a pretty good run (I'd estimate 90%) with Frame/Mac reading MS-Word files as well as it's own files. For me, most of the problems had to do with faulty media more than some sort of bug in the program causing it to not read it's own output. It's super-handy to not have to let go of the tons of data I've got in Frame and MS-Word format. I'd like it if Frame/NS read MS-Word files too, but no such luck. From what I've seen, only the Mac port can do that. I think being able to keep your data is a pretty important feature and I wonder if a lot of people that aren't switching to NS apps for their work (even though the competing NS app has a lot more going for it in terms of features and environmental benefits) feel similarly (hence a reason for not switching to NS apps). -- J.B.

Could []you list what configuration you purchased and what worked and did not []work for running NEXTSTEP. [] []I've been impressed by the features and price of the GATEWAY 2000 []computers, but I was not 100% convinced by their tech support that they []are certain what will work with NEXTSTEP. And I also don't want to base []my purchase on the configuration guide put out by NEXTSTEP. I couldn't []use that guide even if I wanted to, since it doesn't even include any []information about CD-ROM players. [] []No, I would really prefer some first-hand experience about this. We (hah! *I*) just finised getting NS installed on our Gateway. I forget the exact numbers that Gateway assigns, but it's a clock doubled 25MHz version, 340 Mb IDE drive, Adaptec (sp?) 1540 SCSI card (which we will be using just for running the CD-ROM during installation, and maybe for something more down the line), with 32 Mb of RAM and the 15" CrystalScan monitor. The installation was an absolute snap once some kind net souls had explained to me how to get the supplied Microsoft mouse to work. The basics are quite simple: put in the Adaptec card, hook up a good CD-ROM (we started with a fairly nice but inexpensive NEC on and that was useless, then we switched to a Toshiba and had no problems) which has had its SCSI ID set to 0. Boot off of the supplied NeXT floppy and follow the instructions (when you are asked to name a boot device, answer sd0). At one point you will be told "eject the floppy disc and hit return", do so, and at that point UNPLUG THE KEYBOARD (for reasons already well documented in these groups). The installation will run along just fine, and you will eventually be asked to specify what device drivers to load at boot time. You need only the mouse for this part, and the mouse will work! But if you do not do the following then when you boot up the mouse will not work. So, at this stage, click on the "mouse panel", click on "Add", add Serial Mouse, remove PS2Mouse, go back to the "Summary" (NeXT Logo) panel, hit save, and then finish the installation. All should work fine. Although I did this with just our one machine, I received the same instructions from several other people with different Gateway set-ups, so I think these are the "generic Gateway instructions." Will be getting a DX66V soon, so I guess I'll know more then . . . . . By the way, the only recommendations I can make at this early juncture about configurations are: (1) spend the money and get a decent amount of RAM. I learned that lesson on my black hardware, and I have no doubt it will be the case on white. (2) Consider getting a larger monitor if you're used to the 17" NeXTstation/Cube one. I'm so used to my roomy monochrome workspace that the white screen, while in beautiful color, seems very cramped to me --- will definitely be looking into Virtspace or some such, since my current work habits are simply inappropriate for this screen size. It may be that someone who has never had a 17" monitor will not notice the difference, but if you've had it, giving it up is very hard. Hope this is somewhat helpful --- Tom -- Dr. Thomas L.

If you are willing to re-install the whole system then that information should work for you, but I **think** you can just do an incremental fix by using the information Rick Jacoby sent me (sadly, I didn't get his note until after I had re-installed from scratch, but that might be better since now I know one *definite* right way to do things from start to finish). Anyway, Rick says: +++++++++++++++++++++++++ The way around it is to reboot and at the boot: prompt type config=Default it will come up in a real basic mode and the mouse will work. Run the Config.app and remove the PS2mouse and add the serial mouse. After a reboot it should be fine... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Thanks again Rick! Add Serial Mouse and remove PS as per my other post. Now, to avoid having to hard power cycle the machine for a reboot, get logged in to whatever account, use the arrow keys to navigate Workspace Manager to get the Terminal.app application in NeXTApps highlighted (perhaps you did not know that the arrow keys could move you around this way?) and if you hit return Terminal will launch. In a shell give yourself a password, then alt-q to quit, alt-q and return to log out, log in as root, bring up Terminal.app again and type "reboot" at the prompt. voila! I was also told by Mitchh Gass that alt-NumLock will bring up the NMI monitor, but have not yet had a chance to check this since I'm at home on my black hardware now.

Do you really want to be personally responsible for ensuring that NeXTSTEP software development is killed completely? Do you really despise the thought of people trying to create software for NeXTSTEP? I can't even understand the reason this was done. SVC sells microphone dirt cheap. It's only 99 bucks, which is cheaper that some utility applications for NeXTSTEP. They have taken a gamble and ported a well known highly important product to NeXTSTEP, and then to NeXTSTEP/Intel. They have gone further than many other Mac/IBM houses to make sure that you the NeXTSTEP user had a stable product. This hurts me on a more personal level also. I went to dev camp with Michael Rutman, the primary author of MicroPhone Pro. He's done a lot for me to help get my NeXTSTEP product out the door. I would gladly give the shirt off my back for him. He's your average programmer, with a wife, a kid, a car, a house, etc. He has to pay for those things, and he does it by spending his time writing software instead of spending his time with his family. He does it to support, cloth, house, and feed his family. He works in a company full of people with similar circumstances. They are trading their time for your your dollars. I implore everyone reading this message to consider the following: NeXT software development is not being done by mindless, faceless corporations. A lot of NeXTSTEP developers have gone into debt to bring cool and new software to our loved black and tolerated white hardware. No one is getting rich from NeXTSTEP development. It's all being done on speculation. If companies like SVC decide to quit updating, supporting or even worse quit selling their NeXTSTEP products, it will not be they that suffer. They have Microphone on other platforms that sell a lot more copies than the NeXTSTEP version. They would lose NOTHING by just giving up on NeXTSTEP. If you pirate Microphone Pro, or use the hacked version, you aren't going to hurt SVC in the slightest. The injured party will be yourself. Because if SVC walks away from NeXTSTEP, there won't be anything to fill the void. Do you really want to use kermit for the rest of your NeXTSTEP life? If you want to use Mircophone Pro, or all already using a friends copy, or a pirated copy, it is in YOUR best interest to cough up the 99 bucks for a legitimate copy. If you don't then it will have a dominoe effect as more and more developers become discouraged from writing software for NeXTSTEP. Isn't it worth $99 to ensure that Microphone continues to be updated, and that new and interesting products are developed for NeXTSTEP? To order a copy of MicroPhone Pro: NeXTConnection (800-800-NeXT) or (603-446-7771) Software Ventures (510-644-3232) P.S. I don't mean to accuse anyone of pirating MicroPhone Pro. In my heart, I believe that people are decent and honest. Some would say that makes me a sucker.

I read a news articule that send to configure it as COM3 with IRQ-5, I did this but then couldn't figure out how to select it from then FaxModem configuration panel. It only gives you a choice of A or B. Next I tried using the rom setup to disable COM2 (COMB) and set the modem to COM2 IRQ-3 (?)(it was 3 or 4 but opposite from the mouse). I then set it in FaxModem setup to 'B', but when I tryed to use it the system hung. So, if you have gotten this working please let me know what you did. Thanks Greg Lindholm P.S. I'll get my own account as so as I get my modem working.

Date: 9 Aug 1993 11:09:26 -0500 Organization: Texas A&M University, College Station Message-ID: <245srm$15j@tamsun.tamu.edu> Just to summarize what others have been saying - 1. Don't touch a cracked product. Somebody who is smart enough to crack a commercial product is certainly capable of turning the product into a Trojan Horse which could eat your system. 2. NEVER INSTALL ANYTHING THAT YOU ARE NOT SURE OF!! This is the primary rule of being on a UNIX system. The system administrator will not shed many tears when you tell him you ran a program that erased your files. 3. IF YOU ARE A SYSTEM OPERATOR (ie root), TRIPLE CHECK EVERYTHING BEFORE INSTALLING. Just because NeXTs are easy to use, in this fashion they can be too easy. Loging in as root and launching the Installer.app, which does all the work of installing, can often hide problems that the system cannot see, such as the fact that the program seems to be missing files or the files aren't named quite right. BE CAREFUL IF YOU ARE ROOT - IT CAN SAVE YOU DAYS OF FRUSTRATION. 4. People who "crack" legitimate programs obviously cannot stand the fact that some people can actually program better than they can. If they can spend the time to crack a piece of software, they certainly have the time to program a new piece of software. They must be weak brained, I guess. 5. Cracked software is a boon to nobody. It hurts the original producer by taking away legitimate sales (aren't there few enough NeXT related sales already), it hurts the consumer in several way, and it hurts the market in general. The consumer is hurt not only in that they are using a cracked product that is unreliable, but in that the developers become wary in a market where sales fall due to pirating, which in turn hurts the market. The market takes the final blow, as companies must either turn to legal suits to make a profit (YUCK!), or they get out of that market. Its that simple. Don't hurt yourself by trying and using cracked software. By doing so you not only help out the NeXT community, you help yourself. If you're really interested in destroying the investment you had in your computer, try doing it some other way like selling it to somebody else. You'll be out of the market and somebody who does care will now have a machine. --Keith kdp9565@zeus.tamu.edu keithp@cs.tamu.edu n245bq@tamuts.tamu.edu

Date: 9 Aug 1993 17:16:03 GMT Organization: University of Houston Message-ID: <2460oj$o0m@menudo.uh.edu> References: <DEAN.93Aug8235441@world.std.com> I have recently read a few articles (such as the one at the end of this post) that discuss problems and fixes to the imfamous Gateway2000 "Dead Keyboard and Mouse under NEXTSTEP" bug. Well..... The problem has been fixed and my old "hacks" no longer apply (I posted the following "official fixes" to these same newsgroups a while back!!) So... If you are a Gateway2000 Owner or you are considering buying one, then please ignore the old hacks and use the following information to install NEXTSTEP!!!!!!! Gateway2000 4DX2-66V Fix (This probably applies to the 4DX2-50V also) This the "official" fix from Gateway2000 concerning the problem with installing and running NEXTSTEP for Intel Processors version 3.1. The cause of the problem was that the PS2Mouse driver and the PS2Keyboard driver would not work with the newer versions of the BIOS that Micronics started shipping with a revised system board. Mainly it concerned the new Gateway ROM BIOS PLUS Version 0.10 GJX30-05E (but it also works for the earlier GJX30 versions). For NEXTSTEP for Intel Processors Release 3.1 to install correctly, the new Gateways V-Series systems must have the PS2 style keyboard jumper ENABLED. This jumper is not documented in the Gateway2000 Manuals as the PS2 style keyboard jumper, instead it is listed as W7 - "Reserved". Gateway ships these systems with the jumper disabled, and usually recommends leaving the jumper disabled for use with system and keyboard drivers. However, you must change the W7 jumper to the "on" position (you will need to find a jumper to use or locate a spare one). The W7 jumper is located right next to the W40 jumper on the motherboard. See the diagram below (only included for RichText). Micronics (Motherboard OEM for Gateway) is currently running NEXTSTEP on a new Gateway with the W7 jumper changed. This setup has worked with both serial and bus mice. NeXT's Quality Assurance group is testing this fix now. [This has been tested and verified at the University of Houston with various GJX30-01 versions of the BIOS.] **** THE PS2Mouse DRIVER MUST BE LOADED FOR THIS TO WORK!!! If [and only if!!] you followed my earlier installation notes, you were told to remove the PS2Mouse driver from the file /usr/Devices/System.config/Instance0.table which was in the line "Boot Drivers". A simple way to do this is to run the Configure.app located in /NextApps and click on "save". The configure.app will automatically add the PS2Mouse driver to the Instance0.table file. Powerdown, then add the jumper and reboot. No need to mess with the turbo switch or anything, it should come up in NEXTSTEP automatically. To quickly verify if your keyboard will work, check if the NUM-Lock LED is off. If it is not, then your keyboard WILL NOT work. The W7 jumper is located next to the first LocalBus slot near the right-back end of the system board. This diagram is for the Desktop configuration only. The jumper may be located in a different location if you have a tower case.

Worms aren't viruses. A worm is a separate program that leaves obvious traces as it messes with files, etc. Worms are harder to write (in general they rely on operating system bugs) and are also more easily protected against (remove or replace the buggy OS utility, don't run things as setuid root). A virus, in the traditional sense, _can't_ work on a system with true memory protection. A virus, to work, needs to be able to patch the running code resources of an application from an infected application. With memory protection, such an attempt would simply crash the infected application. Not very effective. Toy operating systems lack such memory protection, and an infected application can infect every other application running on the system, including the system itself. A trojan horse is a worm built into a carrier application, and has the same limitations. -- Scott Byer NeXTMail: byer@mv.us.adobe.com Adobe Systems Incorporated These are *my* opinions, and 1585 Charleston Road, P.O.

I have tried to buy a complete system from both Dell and Epson without success - both companies seem determined not to sell their computers! Thus, I would like to assemble my own system, and I have looked through the PC hardware compatibility guide. Here are my questions: Video card: what video card gives the best performance & resolution? Does the CPU speed improve performance? How much faster will video be using an EISA motherboard vs. localbus, if any? Does NeXT currently support (or plan to support) any of the following cards: Cirrus Logic Local Bus, Orchid Fahrenheit Local Bus, Diamond Viper Local Bus, Diamond Speedstar Pro, ATI Graphics Ultra Pro? Sound: Which sound card have people used and favor? Is there one that allows you to record voice just like on the NeXTstations? Is there a sound card with a Motorola 56001 DSP that works just like on the old hardware? CD-Rom: Does the CD-ROM have to be a SCSI device? If not, can you still boot from a CD-ROM connected through an IDE controller? Anybody have any experience with multi-session CD-ROMs? Any advantage to buying one of these for a NeXTstep system? SCSI Controller: Anybody with experience with the choices supported have any recommendations? Monitor: Can the original Fimi or Hitachi 17" and 21" NeXT color megapixel displays be used on an intel system? Does anybody have any information/experience with the cable to connect the video card to the above monitors? Bus: ISA vs EISA - does the EISA bus really make much difference with system performance? CPU: How much difference does the system CPU speed matter? Would people recommend spending ~$300 more for a 66 mhz DX2 over a 33 mhz DX? Anybody with experience with a pentium system?

Date: Mon, 9 Aug 1993 21:24:25 GMT The problem: I have a NeXT machine which exports a filesystem via NFS to several other systems. One of the NFS clients is running Solaris 2.x (AT&T SysV-based), and it wants to lock files on the NFS server via lockd. However, I cannot find any trace of lockd on the NeXT, so processes just hang. Is there any ported lockd sources around that can be used on the NeXT? I'm not really concerned as to how close to the SysV implementation they are... if I can't find one I may just write something to basically handle lockd requests by basically saying "yeah, right, whatever" back to the Sun and forgetting about it... so long as the Sun doesn't hang it'll work. Directions, pointers, suggestions, etc welcome. Please reply by email as I don't normally follow these groups... I'll summarize if there's any interest.

Something tells me that this little stunt was pulled by the same kind of pinheads who write DOS viruses, because they don't have either the talent or the social skills to get a real job. Of course, with NEXTSTEP running on garden-variety hardware, and the overall number of users increasing, the odds were that we eventually had to have a few of the kids who used to crack ATARI games pop up in our midst. I think that the fairly high cost of black hardware insulated us from the riffraff for a while. One major hazard I see on the horizon is that MAB's will allow low-budget vandals to invade Any NEXTSTEP machine who's operator isn't paying attention. So. I guess it's time for software delivery by public-key cryptography. When the software is encoded by the author, for the user, and we can be sure where something has been, this kind of crap will become too difficult for the punks, and they'll have to go back to shoplifting to get their kicks. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- John C.

By the way, I am not neither cracked nor a moron (in my opinion 8^)). I am new to the Net, and got those posts at 40 past 1 _AM_. In the morning. When I should have been sleeping.

I afterwards did it privately to all who sent me mail on this. Again, I am sorry about that.

I was not angry -- I was actually being facetious as you'd see if you climbed down off your high horse. Software is following hardware down the rosy path to becoming a complete commodity. Outfits are having a harder time selling anything for more than a hundred dollars. This appears to be driven by the perceptions of the consumers more than any other issue. This issue creates major problems for developers in a market as small as NEXTSTEP right now. I've had a fairly long history of dealing with the vendors of document formatting and page layout software, going all the way back to the beta version of InterLeaf in 1983, and the embryonic Eden Tools (which later became FrameMaker) in 1984. Over this long time, the definition of what is ``entry level'' becomes more comprehensive. A person setting out today to create a document formatter must provide at least the functionality of MS Word. A page layout app must have at least the functionality of Quark. Marketing people say that the ``barrier to entry'' keeps getting higher. One can sell $49 apps in the Windows market because the potential marketplace is huge. But one also has to spend a firtune advertising in that marketplace. The NEXTSTEP community is smaller and one has a better chance of reaching the people in that market place. We (Trilithon Software) have for better or worse made a conscious decision to concentrate on apps that can be created quickly and priced under $100. Time will tell whether this is a good strategy or not. You have made many good points in the past, so as a matter of interest, why don't you tell us all what is your pricing strategy for your applications? ........ Henry

It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP.

NeXT sells the upgrade in the US for $755 (user) + $99 (developer), that was the change reported by Conrad some time ago. In Europe you pay $109 + $109 + VAR profit.

I also bought the AT headset when in the US last March. I haven't been using Simon since (so ordering or receiving an upgrade is in my case not a good indicator), but that is not because I'm not satisfied, just because I haven't had the time to train Simon properly and that was because of mike problems. The AT headset was a real problem. The stupid set is too small for my waterhead so it seems. HSD told me to put the pads on my temples, but the microphone ends up somewhere next to my ear and the pads crush the things that my glasses use to remain in place into my temples (what's that in English?). So I moved the pads to under my ears, which makes the microphone move, whenever I speak. A week ago I saw a trading room on a TV program, and there I saw some fellow wearing the pads on the collar of his shirt (where they are of no use) and the frame did rests on his neck. I immedaitely tried that position and it is wonderful. Now it's time to try Simon again.

If the product happens to be inexpensive due to market forces, then capitalism is at work, and everyone is better off. The DOS/Win/Mac market is enormous and can support lots of competition and low prices in several areas. This is a plus for the D/W/M user, but the market also has it's minuses - namely some of NEXTSTEP's strengths. Prices will be driven by market forces - quantifiable or not. The NEXTSTEP market is not the DOS/Win/Mac market and should not be treated or viewed as such, for doing so may be a grave mistake. IMHO... Your conclusion and extrapolation from the D/W/M market into the NS market is ill-conceived. This does not mean your business strategy is ill-conceived, as I do believe there is a small utility market in NS, but you're kidding yourself if you think that low priced, low functionality in the NS market is the same as low priced, high competition, high functionality in the D/W/M market. Because, as you may find out - if it was created quickly by you, it can be created quickly by someone else.

We have found that NEXSTEP installs without a problem; but leaves us with a portable that is plagued with problems. The following three are the most troubling: 1) When you boot the laptop if you do not hit enter immediately upon seeing that DOS like boot: prompt, the system will not boot; it just errors out and crashes. 2) The system does not shutdown; It just hangs shortly after selecting the shutdown button off the login panel. Powering the computer off at this point makes the boot process even more of a hassel then usual. 3) Apparently no support for any PCMCIA devices. This includes fax/modems and ethernet cards. Is this the type of functionality we can expect or have we missed something? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. thanks, grant -- Objective Business Systems Inc.

The reason that NeXT drives can't read 400 and 800K disks from the Mac is because Apple actually varied the rotational speeds depending on where the head was located relative to the center of the disk. The drives (or the controllers -- not sure which) used in the NeXT do not have that capability. Actually, I just realize that I was talking about black-hardware drives, and you were talking about Intel drives. Oh well -- the same problems apply to them also. Incidentally, if you have a PLI SuperFloppy 2.8 on black hardware, you can read 400k and 800k disks.

I have to print over the network from my NeXT to an HP LaserWriter IIIsi or an Apple Laserwriter through a VMS system. I had a lot of trouble getting this to work. The HP would just blink its lights for a while and then never print anything out. I finally traced the problem to the long lines in /usr/lib/NextStep/printPackage.ps. After carefully shortening lines by hand (mostly by removing the unnecessary leading tabs and spaces), my problems went away (well, the HP still chokes on some long binary PS files). (For a while I thought the problem was the VMS system truncating lines or whatever, but this didn't seem to be the problem.) I am curious to know why appartently standard PS in a NeXT file consistently breaks some printers. (I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the printer is configured incorrectly.) Another thing to try if you run into similar problem PS files to find the utility PSlinewrap (I think from ftp.adobe.com). This sometimes breaks things though (for instance, it breaks the printPackage file). Hope this helps. Mark Doyle mdd@zeke.rockefeller.edu P.S. You will have to fix printPackage each time you upgrade if this turns out to be your problem.

The most effective grocery store method for eliminating bad checks is to post the returned checks on a public bulletin board (and refuse to accept any further, of course).

Let (his) access be restricted to comparable fraudulent schemes which will shortly get (him) caught and (his) hardware and software confiscated.

Although the actual root user is locked out of use, ALL users starting it up are actually root as the program starts -- therefore IF trojan operation has been hidden with the hacks of the binaries posted here, they WILL have unblocked access to your system -- only read-only filesystems (i.e. CDROM or Net-Mounted read-only) will be in any way protected from infection by any enclosed virus, or simple trojan operation.

If a virus infected one program you were running, it could infect other programs *you* were running. Consider debuggers. They can attach to running programs and read and write the memory therein. Normally, this isn't that helpful, since usually you won't leave any programs running when you log out.

I can't afford to buy another motherboard. I'm going to attempt to dissable the on-board SCSI, and put an Adaptec 1542B card in. I've got both an Apple CD-ROM 300 and a Texel CD ROM, so I'm hoping one of those will work... I'd like to hear from anyone else who has had experience installing NeXTSTEP on a Zeos machine.

Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc From: tlm@tantalus.scl.ameslab.gov (Tom Marchioro) Subject: BUG & SOLUTION: Display of fonts on NeXT (usually TeXview) Message-ID: <CBnL0H.5xt@news.iastate.edu> Sender: news@news.iastate.edu (USENET News System) Organization: Iowa State University, Ames IA Date: Thu, 12 Aug 1993 15:43:29 GMT Sorry I didn't get this done earlier, but things have been hectic this week. Here, as per my earlier posting, is a description, as well as a hack to fix, a troublesome bug in the NeXT display postscript fonts. This information is for NeXTstep 3.0 running on black. Although it was detailed to NeXT at great length (they're support people were quite helpful while we were tracking it down) I do not know if this bug has been fixed in 3.1. Basically, there is a bad UniqueID for the Ohlfs font that causes the font cache to get screwed at times, thus the metrics from one font will be used with the glyphs from another. The bug is intermittent, and highly context dependent in that it depends on what fonts you have used and in what order, so you can imagine the fun times we had tracking it down. The following information is cut and pasted from the correspondence I saved 'twixt me, Rokicki, and the person as NeXT, so the logic may wander a little, but I think it's complete. Anyone wiht more questions on the subject is welcome to contact me by E-mail. First, demonstration of the bug: =============================================================== I spent all day trying to track down this problem, but to no avail. As far as I can tell, the NeXT has a problem with its font cache. Specifically, fonts with no UniqueID (perfectly legal) seem to mess things up. Please read this whole message . . . First, to duplicate the problem. Log out of your machine, and then log in as `exit' to restart the WSM. Now, log in. `Open' the following file (Preview will load it), when it displays (a single line), exit Preview.

Select Ohlfs/Medium/18---you will probably see Times Bold instead. Use `Set' and try to use the terminal window; it is using Times-Bold but at Ohlfs spacing. Sizes of 24 and larger are fine. I've performed numerous experiments, and I think that it is the low UniqueID value in Ohlfs that is causing the problem. This is strictly a guess, but it is upheld by experimentation---the interpreter appears to assign an `arbitrary' UniqueID value to fonts that don't have a UniqueID value, and this value is 0 for the first such font, one for the next, etc. Thus, Ohlfs, with a UniqueID of 2, is conflicting with the third such defined font in the system, and the cache gets seriously confused. Changing the UniqueID value in Ohlfs to 3 changes this to the fourth such font, and etc. ============================= So there is a demonstration. The trick is to patch the file /NextLibrary/Fonts/Ohlfs.font/Ohlfs with the one below, which is embedded in a message also containing some more useful info: ============================== Here's a patched Ohlfs that appears to solve both problems, although I still claim it's a bug somewhere, probably in the NeXT interpreter. Specifically, page 17 of the Black book says `The UniqueID is specified with the entry name UniqueID both in the font dictionary and in the Private dictionary. ... If the UniqueID values are not present in both the font dictionary and Private dictionary, or if they have different values, then the font program is treated by the interpreter as if it had no UniqueID at all; caching will then be efficient for the immediate job, but the interpreter will not cache bitmaps for that font across jobs.' So there is no getting around it; the NeXT is broken, because it is not behaving according to the above spec. (Or perhaps the spec is broken.) Because the top-level UniqueID value appears to be used, no matter what, even if it is different from the Private UniqueID. In addition, fonts with no UniqueID are not treated correctly as `lacking' a UniqueID. Anyway, here is the file; install it in /NextLibrary/Fonts/Ohlfs.font/Ohlfs and run and let me know of *any* problems; thanks! (Note that I've used a value in the 4 million range (derived from a random number), which is legitimate for a `controlled environment' as defined in page 18-19 of the Black Book. %!PS-AdobeFont-1.0: Ohlfs 001.005 %%CreationDate: Fri Apr 29 00:55:51 PDT 1988 /Courier findfont dup length 1 add dict /keithdict exch def { % Is it the FontName entry? 1 index /FontName eq { % For the old FontName, substitute the string 'Ohlfs' pop pop keithdict /FontName /Ohlfs put } { % Is it the FID entry? 1 index dup /FID ne exch /UniqueID ne and {keithdict 3 1 roll put} {pop pop} ifelse } ifelse } forall keithdict /UniqueID 4624113 put /Ohlfs keithdict definefont pop ================================== Okay, hope that solves the problems of the original poster, as well as anyone else who runs up against this. By the way, this font has nothing to do with NeXT-TeX per se, it's just that if you are using lots of PS fonts you are more likely to encounter the problem, and because I and a few other people use PS Type 1 TeX fonts, and there are so many fonts in the average TeX document, we tend to run into troubles, but NONE(!!) since doing the patch above.

Well, auto-numbering is easy enough and is in the plan for the future. cross-referencing, indexing, and table of contents are a little harder, but we do plan to implement them at some point in the not-too-distant future.

I can see reading/writing Quark files, Frame files, and PageMaker files for $99, but %%Baseline? That drives the price up to at least $699. That's an advanced feature that would only be used by sophisticated users. Maybe there should be a "Professional" version that supported %%Baseline and also set up UUCP and SLIP connections for you. In fact, it ought to have the feature set of Newsgrazer in there as well. Since Newsgrazer is freely available, knocking off those features should be easy, and I woudn't want to purchase a Professional version of a product that didn't *at least* support that simple level of functionality.

Illustrator files are ASCII, very easily parsed, and the format is public and well-documented. The feature set of Illustrator and Virtuoso overlap to a large degree, so editing Illustrator files is pretty easy. This is not to trivialize the fact that you can read them, but it is only a drop in the bucket. What about single-page Quark files? What about FrameMaker files? What about Corel Draw, Arts & Letters, and other apps with which you directly compete? What about Appsoft Draw, Stone Design's Create? What about PasteUp files? Most file formats are difficult or impossible to support, either because they're binary and not documented (Quark) or because the feature set is different enough from your own app that you'd have to throw away most of the interesting stuff (for example, if you imported Frame files, what would you do with multiple pages, master items, page numbers, cross- references, markers, anchored frames, etc? Supporting one other vendor's file format isn't that spectacular, especially since you needed to do it to compete with Illustrator way back when Freehand was just getting a toehold. -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Electronic Frontier Foundation, member #054

Regardless of what SJ says in the message, the voice really eats up the disk space when you are adding many users to a system, and many new users do not know to use the Compress option to free up the disk space.

I'd much rather do them in a spreadsheet (which is where the data are likely to originate, anyway) and paste or (even better) link them in than use a half-ass bundled table editor like the atrocious one in WP/DOS and WP/Windows.

As a more general solution, I created a symbolic link from /usr/template/usr to the home direcotry of a user called proto.

My experience is that equations are difficult to get right the first time. It seems that the process of launching EqB, editing the equation, saving, going to PasteUp (or whatever), and updating the link to display the current version of the equation would be more of hassle than, say, editing the equation natively within the word processor (e.g. Frame). I also disagree partly with the notion of importing tables from a Spreadsheet. For tables of numbers this is fine. However, there are times when I desire a table of things that don't fall naturally into (what I perceive as) the spreadsheets domain: tables composed of text & equations. Indeed, creating a table of text and equations created with EqB could be challenging. And of course, with the importing of graphics as equations, it is doubly important to allow auto-numbering of graphics to provide for equation numbering. Then again, I could be completely off base and it reallsy is simple. Correct me if I am wrong. -- David J.

If we were using Windoze, I'd agree with you. On a real, solid multi-tasking system like NeXT's though, this has never been a problem for me. I simply keep both EqB and whatever word processor I'm using (and a couple of drawing apps, and ...) all open. Switching from one to the other is a mere mouse click. In fact, having used WP's equation editor heavily under DOS before switching to NeXT, I find the switch from WP to EqB and back much easier and faster than entering WP's own equation editor. Certainly it requires less key/mouse strokes. Plus I then have the advantage that I can have both on-screen at once, so that I can refer back and forth and (for example) look at other equations in the same document. With the embedded equation editor approach, one is often unable to access the rest of the document while working in the equation editor (although this need not be the case with a well-designed app). > I also disagree partly with the notion of importing tables > from a Spreadsheet.

I don't have it, but expect that Concurrence would be good at it. Any drawing app should do a pretty good job too, in cases that involve mixing graphic images such as equations and text. And if such a tool doesn't exist, I hope someone will write one. But it need not be part of a word processing app. > And of course, with the importing of graphics as equations, > it is doubly important to allow auto-numbering of graphics > to provide for equation numbering. Here I definitely agree 100%. Which brings me back to my point: the document creation app should provide the framework that lets me integrate, easily and smoothly, all the separate pieces that need to come together. It need not help me actually _create_ those pieces. -- - Stefano Pagiola Food Research Institute, Stanford University spagiola@leland.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged) spagiola@FRI-nxt-Pagiola.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged)

Message-ID: <24eck9$4j8@hermes.athena.com> Athena Design is starting the first major revision of Mesa. Mesa version 2 (M2) will be the most powerful spreadsheet in the world and will have a series of slick features that will make building and maintaining models easier. We'd like to get all kinds of ideas about where to take Mesa and have created an alias to receive suggestions. The alias is m2@athena.com. Please send mail with ideas and suggestions. We will NOT respond to these, but they will be read and considered. We will ask people with especially cool ideas to help beta-test Mesa2. We will also give out prizes (like t-shirts, etc.) to people with interesting ideas. Mesa version 2 should be out around Expo '94 and will be a free upgrade to all Mesa 1.4 and Mesa 1.5 users. Thanks and we look forward to getting the cool suggestions. David & the Mesa Team P.S. Just as a note, we do not want the suggestion "Clone Excel". If there is a specific feature in Excel that you like, tell us about it. Mesa2 will not be simply a clone of Excel or any other product, but will take the best ideas from the current best spreadsheets and roll them into the worlds best spreadsheet.

Glenn Reid writes: >What about single-page Quark files? What about FrameMaker files? What >about Corel Draw, Arts & Letters, and other apps with which you directly >compete? What about Appsoft Draw, Stone Design's Create? What about >PasteUp files? As high-quality as these NS apps are within their realms of influence, it seems odd to me that bigger companies would look to support the formats of relatively smaller apps like Appsoft Draw, Stone Design's Create and RightBrain's PasteUp. I think it's much more logical for smaller companies to support the formats of the more widely-used apps. Since Quark was brought up, last I recall, PasteUp was said to compete with Quark yet (last I recall reading) PasteUp didn't read Quark files. Has this changed in later releases? Is there an application to convert Quark files to PasteUp files? Wouldn't it be a great way to woo people over to PasteUp if PasteUp had a filter for reading Quark files? This is a good example of what I was trying to get across with being competitive across platforms. NS has the capability to be a wonderful platform for DTP (sometimes I think it was born for it), but if the NS apps that are available only read their own files (even though they are said to compete with products on other platforms) what incentive is there to switch to NS? Perhaps the current users have not expressed interest in converting their work to PasteUp format because the people who were interested (up until they heard it wouldn't read some other format files) all stopped considering PasteUp? >Most file formats are difficult or impossible to support, either >because they're binary and not documented (Quark) Can Quark's file formats be (purchased, leased, reverse-engineered, whatever is legal) for use in PasteUp like WordPerfect formats are in MSWord or vice versa? Perhaps there is a happy-medium format both Quark and PasteUp could read? I realize it probably costs a lot of money to do this, if it's even possible to purchase it somehow, but I'll take a guess that there's already something that's costing RightBrain quite a bit of money; lack of sales. >or because the feature set is different enough from your own app that >you'd have to throw away most of the interesting stuff >[excellent example with Frame removed for brevity] Why not add this functionality to PasteUp? PasteUp seems to me to be in a great position right now since it's advertised frequently, actively supported and the folks who made it are available on various networks (a lot of people can get e-mail to the Internet) and the price is better than other NS DTP apps (former or present). Why not take advantage of this lack of competition to make PasteUp cover the bases formerly covered by Frame, thus giving people who used Frame/NS a reason to stick with NS? >Supporting one other vendor's file format isn't that spectacular [..] It seems better to me than supporting only your own proprietary format.

Why do we have an object oriented system? I would like to see a "magic" link to the originating program. For instance I'm using Paste-Up and I want to edit my equation, I Cmd-click the equation and voila I'm in EquationBuilder (or another program the data originates from) and edit the equation. When I'm finished I'm doing a "Save-and-Return" and I'm back in Paste-Up. One could even expand it in such a way that for instance when doing a spell-check for a table Paste-Up askes the orginating program in which the table was made to spell-check the table and return its results to Paste-Up again. (Glenn, can I get paid for this? ;-))) This would mean that finally some advance has been made using objects for inter-operability between apps, and would mean for the future that the notion of apps would dissappear... Which would fulfill S.J.'s dream (I can remember him saying something along these lines in the first article about NeXTSTEP in a Byte in 1988/9)... -- Annard Brouwer annard@stack.urc.tue.nl (NeXTmail appreciated) People?

I suppose this is one way to handle "tables" if you don't care about details such as page breaks, images inside cells, data content exceeding 250 characters per cell, ability to define multiple cell formats, define precisely where the data will appear in the cell, etc. If you don't need to worry about how things look or if you don't like the ability to build tables on the fly or have xref's or variables or footnotes or figure numbering then maybe doing them in a spreadsheet will work for you. It won't work for me or others who do "serious" things with tables that need to look good. Everyone loves to put down Frame for their lousy user interface. Obviously these whiners have never had to use Interleaf! :-) FrameMaker may be a little different, but complaining about its appearance in 1993 while comparing it to the latest hot-off-the-press gee-whiz app from a NeXTSTEP-only vendor strikes me as typical Monday-morning quarterbacking. FrameMaker for NeXTSTEP was done a long time ago before everybody got so "smart" about just what NS apps should look and work like. Don't get me wrong - I'm not saying it's perfect or even close to being a typical NS app. I just don't think the looks matter very much when using the product - the needed functions are there, and are usable, and aren't that much different from other "more pure" apps. I also think that if you go back and look at some of the gems done in 1989 or so by some of the people who post here, you'll find that they had some UI's that they're not proud of when judged in today's world. It will be a sad day for me if Frame does decide not to do an Intel version. For now, I continue to believe them when they say that no decision has been made. John Bartley

Date: Fri, 13 Aug 1993 03:47:12 GMT I've recompiled my set of Macintosh file format conversion utilities so they run on both black and white versions of NEXTSTEP 3.1, and added some minor features to a couple of the apps. At the moment, I'm looking for folks, *especially* users of NS for Intel Processers, to `beta test' these apps and verify they work properly (since I don't have an machine with an intel processor, I can't do this myself). If you have any interest in beta testing any of these, please let me know at davidjohn@kira.net.netcom.com I'll put the final versions on the net after I've gotten adequate testing on the these betas. The applications are: Convert PICT Convert mac PICT files to NeXT eps files (has a filter to allow pasting of PICT images. (useful if you use Executor), and more support for PicComments (not lots, still)) Convert RTF Converts Mac <--> NeXT rtf files (Support for a couple new rtf commands) Convert FONT Converts Mac bitmap font to NeXT bitmap font Convert TEXT Converts Mac <--> NeXT text files (Now also converts CRLF line endings too) Convert MacPaint Converts MacPaint files to eps files.

A SLIP connection lets you do other things at the same time as your file transfer; the most popular file-transfer-over-a-serial- line protocols don't. SLIP also gives you the ability to transfer in both directions simultaneously. (Similarly for CSLIP, PPP, etc.) The fastest way to transfer a file over a phone line is to have Telebit WorldBlazer modems at each end talking Turbo PEP. If your main concern is the cost of the phone call (particularly long distance or international), this is the way to go. Turbo PEP means something like a 60% performance improvement over V.32bis, but its asymmetric design is heavily slanted toward UUCP and generally doesn't win for interactive usage. So you use whichever is more appropriate (on a call-by-call basis). BTW, the latest C-Kermit handily beats zmodem. (More info: comp.protocols.kermit newsgroup) -=EPS=-

The Rocky Mountain NeXT User Group had a demo of this product. In a word SLICK. One of the more impressive trials was to take a postscript of a fractal tree, one that was generated by only 60 lines of postscript code with lots of loops and attempt to edit one of the branches. Tailor worked on it for about 6-8 minutes and produced a file about 1000 times bigger but you could select any element of that tree and modify it. The program is Swiss, I believe.

If an equation from EqB is "paste and link"'ed into an application that properly support Link Objects, then double clicking on the equation will automatically bring it up in EquationBuilder. "It just works" and has ever since EqB3.0 started shipping back in December Depending on how you have set the link to update, you can either have the equation in the document update when the equation in EqB gets saved, continually (a live link), or update you can update your document manually. The framework for meaningful interapplication communication is there. It is just a question of applications subscribing to the framework that NeXT provided beginning with NeXTSTEP 3.0. Apps such as NoteBook, Concurrence 2, GraphRight, etc. already support object links. I think new version of PasteUp does as well, but I'm not sure.

It is at this point very simple to make a table of numbers coming from a spreadsheet `look good.' Spreadsheets like Mesa include extensive formatting tools. And the word processor should take care of things like page breaks by keeping anything you paste or link in together as a unit. Now it may well be that for the kinds of tables that you want to create, a spreadsheet is inadequate. I suspect Diagram could take care of several of the things you mention. Perhaps not. But what you're saying is that you want a table creation app that lets you do x, y, and z. Fine. All I'm saying is that I don't think this kind of functionality should be hidden inside a word processor; much better to make it a stand-alone app whose output can be pasted or linked into whatever word processor you like to use. The only instance in which having such an editor within the word processor itself might be necessary is if you want to establish a reference to a specific item _within_ the table that might change as you edit. (Cross-referencing the table itself isn't a problem). I'll grant you that at the moment there is no good way of achieving this if you're linking or pasting in a table from another app. -- - Stefano Pagiola Food Research Institute, Stanford University spagiola@leland.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged) spagiola@FRI-nxt-Pagiola.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged)

I can't afford to buy harddrives and motherboards to swap out; a fix would be great. About four or five times a week this will happen. The hard drive will start making a noise that I interpret as it trying to access the same block over and over. "Dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit- dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-diddldiddldit". It's doing it right now, as a matter of fact, so I can give a lot of detail. After the noise, it waits right at thirty seconds and does it again. I happen to know from experience that as soon as I leave this window, the computer will be locked up. When I've been at a terminal window and this happens, it kicks out a "bus error" message. I have reinstalled the 3.0 software, but have not done a complete rebuild on the hard drive. I can try that, but the bus error message to me suggests more of a hardware problem. Now the sound is continuous, instead of stopping and restarting. Better post this message before it completely locks up on me... Rich

Convinced as I am in my own sweet mind that the vendor-supplied login panel for 3.1 is not pretty, and being both a text-oriented and pretend-graphic-design person, I resolved at least for my own consumption to do something about it. Quite a while back I made a series of login panel tiffs for 3.0 (and before) that displayed text from the Chuang Tsu above the login/password text blocks. I've redone these for 3.1. The texts (31 of them) are the same, but the appearance (sorry, no color, just 2-bit grey) is rather different. Plain, but different. The old set and the new one are available for anonymous ftp from yak.macc.wisc.edu [144.92.30.18], under pub/next/images/logintiffs/3.0 and pub/next/images/logintiffs/3.1. In each directory there's a README that gives the texts as a key to the 31 tiffs in each set. There are several ways to install these. As root, you can open the folder /usr/lib/NextStep/loginwindow.app, where you can rename the original LoginPanel.tiff and insert a new LoginPanel.tiff. Another is to set a link to the new image (I've not tested that myself). Another is to do a dwrite loginwindow ImageFile /com/plete/path/to/new_image.tiff *but* (if you installed Upgrade 3.1, rather than doing a complete build for 3.1) if your 3.0 defaults are still present and not quite right, you might (it happened to me) find yourself returned to the login panel when you try to log in. The remedy (see pg. 7 of the Release Notes) is to get out of that pickle by rebooting and replace your .NeXT directory with a clean one, /usr/template/user/.NeXT. This wipes out all your existing defaults, be aware.

The on-line Unix DOCs, even with fill-ins for missing docs run just around 5 megs (uncompressed). Webster and the various literature works can be run from the CDROM, as if hard, though much slower. For a full installation INCLUDING Developers (Single language only) about 150-200mb is enough, so long as much of the Dev kit is executed directly from the CDROM. Swapfile for an 8m black machine -- 16megs is sufficient for all but massive rendering or enormous -pipe'd compiles. My current configuration: CDROM on /dev/sd1a with NEXTSTEP_Dev_3.1 Full (compact) installation on /dev/odoa mounted as /NEXTSTEP_3.1, so that for alternate use of OD, I can merely insert the NEXTSTEP_3.1 CD, and do what I wish with the OD, retaining a full (non-Developers) system. 100m boot disk with swapfile and all ESSENTIAL system components installed. Non-essential or occasional use (non-time-critical) are soft-links to the other disks. 8m RAM mono-Cube. Typical links... /NextAdmin -- only NetInfoManager.app is actually installed, all other apps are soft-links Problems... suid-root attributes do not survive soft-links from removable media. Thus to use ``UserManager.app'' it must be launched from either a GUI root login, or from a Terminal.app login as root. Yes, it's possible to run with only 100m H/D, so long as the CD-ROM can be mounted.

I spent about a week in Redwood City a month ago talking to all levels of people at NeXT to try and understand what's going on. I spent time talking to Julie Saffren (Director of Developer Programs) and her staff about our experiences with developer programs and what we'd like to see in terms of developer programs. NeXT definitely wants to support developers. They know they need software. We are a large NEXTSTEP shop, yet we require little support. Let's list what developer support can do: 1 - Help a developer get their software in front of the sales force. If you have a good product that is *finished*, you don't need to be an official developer to get NeXT's attention. 2 - Answers for technical questions. NeXT has a support program for this. Developers have to pay for it like everyone else. Being a developer doesn't mean much. If you don't want to pay, you can always send the question to next-prog@cpac.washington.edu. I've gotten some very good and insightful answers from the folks on this alias. 3 - "Getting a glimpse behind the black curtain" Being a developer doesn't help here. I get most of my gossip from friends in the NeXT community, not from official developer releases. This is a relationship thing, and you don't have to be a blessed developer to have relationships with others in the NeXT community. 4 - Get stuff cheap. This meant a lot more in the hardware days. If you have NS 3.0, then getting 3.1 and 3.2 is cheap. If you're just starting out, you can buy 3.1 for $299. I believe the edu price is $249. It's likely that you can get NS Developer cheap if you want without being a developer. If you want to develop NEXTSTEP code, Just Do It! Write a killer app. NeXT will take you seriously *AFTER* you deliver. You can be blessed with the title "Developer", but until you ship, it is not meaningful. Thanks. David

Don't get me wrong, I feel that the situation with NeXT is definately going to be improving. Its more Dave's take on things that is upsetting. Many times we have heard from David about how Mesa is the premier spreadsheet on the platform, and how he wrote it by himself... unfortunately not all of us are the programming gods that David must be. I'm not after NeXT to hold my hand while I try and figure out NXBrowsers or anything like that. However it seems very useful to me to have Developer status. It does make it easier to be recognized by NeXT. Not every developer is going to be shipping a 'mass market' product. We've been shipping our Textile software in limited quantities for 3 months now, and I don't think anyone at NeXT would have noticed. Not because they don't care, but because it is not a high profile application. > If you want to develop NEXTSTEP code, Just Do It! Write a killer > app. NeXT will take you seriously *AFTER* you deliver. You > can be blessed with the title "Developer", but until you ship, > it is not meaningful. I know that we've just done it. But thats because we had no choice. There have been times when it would have been easier to have had some support. A small developer doesn't necessarily have anyone to bounce ideas off of, where as a Large NEXTSTEP shop does. Working on an app under NEXTSTEP totally isolated, and on your own is difficult at best. At worst, I'd say damn near impossible. The comp.sys.next.programmer readers are often helpful, but I am finding that the posts are usually answered by the same cluster of people. Without the responses from Greg, Garance, EPS, and others, we wouldn't have shipped. Period. Like I said originally. NeXT's response to my query was positive, answered the question, and helped to lessen the anxiety about the situation. However to be lectured by a successful mass-market NEXTSTEP developer on the situation, and how we don't need NeXT's stamp of approval is not useful. I guess now I can expect the inevitable flames from Dave, and I'm sure that Glenn will jump on me about this too! :-) -- - Scott Anguish - sanguish@digifix.com (NextMail) next-announce@digifix.com (comp.sys.next.announce submissions)

Reading the output of applications like 'ps' and making sense of the results is HARD on a modern os and shouldn't be undertaken lightly. --- > I just ran a ps -aux on my 486/50DX2 with 20 megs of ram. > Guess what? The window server takes up 30% of the system > memory! I just ran ps on MY system, added up all of the "RSIZE"s (real size as opposed to virtual size, which is MUCH larger) and found out that my system, running only a few applications is using 40.152MB of RAM... that's 143% of system memory! Wait a sec... 143% is more than slightly over 100% and my system isn't CLOSE to swapping. How can this possibly be true? Well, for one thing, every application using a shared library reports the size of the shared libraries in both its virtual and real sizes. After all the library IS a part of the app's memory, and some of it is in RAM... but that part can be SHARED between multiple apps. Hence the name. How much of an application is shared libraries? Well, even a simple app created with Project Builder / Interface Builder winds up loading: libMedia: 451,508 bytes libNeXT: 2,145,380 bytes libIndexing: 498,384 bytes libsys: 953,412 bytes ... that's almost 4MB of virtual space, and potentially 4MB of REAL space that isn't actually a part of your application. So when "Solitaire.app" is listed as occupying 4.61MB of virtual memory, it's actually only about 700k! And that's virtual! What about REAL memory? 1.49MB is listed, but most of the is shared library. I wish I knew of a way to check in any depth offhand... but probably not a whole bunch is local to the application, only 56k is malloced, and most of the rest will be, what, stack? I'd guess we're looking at about 128k, total REAL memory, ignoring window backing store (but that's not part of my memory space, anyway). > Between the window server, the kernel, and other little things > my system uses over 60% of its memory! I could understand > NEXTSTEP needing 8 megs to run, but over 12 megs of RAM just to > load the system? Someone needs to trim this thing down to > size. Take it with a grain of salt. Realistically, in real memory it looks like 2MB for the window server, 3MB for the kernel, 1.5MB for shared libraries, 0.5MB for daemons. Net result: You really need about 7MB for the "base stuff". An 8MB machine has about 1MB left for applications and window backing storage without swapping which is quite tight. A full screen of windows on a 2-bit mono 640x480 occupies about .1MB, and an application like interface builder takes about 1.25MB to run... but you can ALMOST do it without swapping! Of course, when running 1120 x 832 with 12-bit color, a screen full of windows now occupies 1.5MB... so a 16MB system can run three "full screen" IB-style applications comfortably. > There is one other very intresting thing. The CPU utilization > for the whole system was under 25%. Nice to see that NEXTSTEP > dosen't really eat CPU time and memory. Get a grip and learn to look past the surface a bit before you start to gripe. Presuming you'd like your system to be properly utilized, 100% CPU utilization would be nice to see for the simplest of tasks, but you're waiting on video / interprocess / disk bottlenecks so 25% isn't bad... and most of that time will be WindowServer CPU (drawing those individual characters and scrolling bitmapped displays around...) now if the rest of the system were actually DOING something, that would be a different matter and CPU utilization would change accordingly. -- Blake W.

Period. Thanks for the compliment--but let me point out that I have never been a registered developer nor I have ever been to Developer Camp--and after talking to numerous people who have, I'm totally convinced that these programs have nothing to offer me. They're great tax deductions, opportunities to meet people, impressive to your boss, helpful to the "motivationally challenged," etc.--all wonderful things--but utterly useless when it comes to My Developer Needs. I came into the NeXT community already knowing my way around UNIX and able to code in C, with some vague idea what "object-oriented programming" was all about. My reaction to Objective-C was basically "so what?"--it wasn't _weird_ like C++--it was just the C I was already comfortable with, with a few adornments. The hardest part was learning the AppKit's repertoire and different ways to approach it. /NextDeveloper/Examples/ did what no single instructor could ever hope to do--it presented a diversity of perspectives. I didn't look at the Examples as raw materials, but valued them as illustrations. When I got stuck, I knew that their authors must have stumbled in the same place, and I could go back and see how they coped. There was no Garfinkel and Mahoney book, there was no comp.sys.next.programmer, there was no one around me who knew any more than I did--even among those who DID go to Developer Camp. NEXTSTEP certainly wasn't overwhelming then, and with all the resources available to someone coming into the fold today, it's probably ten times easier. I believe one of the biggest reasons I can _do_ what many consider impossible is that I've been spared "developer indoctrination." These programs exist to a large extent because other vendors offer them, and customers have been conditioned to expect (and "demand") them. But they're really thinly disguised marketing tools, more concerned with image than substance. So what's in it for me? I should pay to receive NeXT propaganda? As I understand it, NeXT's "improved" licensing terms supposedly bar me (as a user at an accredited educational institution that qualifies for academic pricing) from developing anything commercial, so I should have no expectation whatsoever of fee- waived participation in post-NeRD Developer programs. Awwww... Well, I'm glad that *someone* is reaping the benefits of my work, even if it isn't me. Apologies in advance to any commercial developers that lose sales because of any "four cube products" I might be FORCED TO GIVE AWAY FOR FREE in the future. It's not my fault. Really. :-) -=EPS=- -- Am I bluffing? Only time will tell. I don't spend all my time posting to the net...

I could go on at length about NeXT's lack of support of Athena Design and Mesa, but a public forum is not the place. If you want to hear some stories, call me. Okay, just one. I could not get my developer advocate to return my phone calls until December of 1992. We started shipping in August 1992. I have been lucky because Boston is a hot-bed of cool people. Shawn Broderick and Charles Perkins were both very helpful. Andrew Stone kept my faith up through many dark hours. I developed Mesa in relative isolation (and that may account for the less-than-slick UI) from NeXT. I wish you and the other small developers the best of luck. A year ago, Athena Design was 3 people. We've grown through luck and hard work. I hope that other developers can experience the growth and success that we have. Our success has not come from a baseline of support from NeXT (although since January, NeXT has been very responsive and helpful.) I believe that a couple of guys in a garage CAN do it. Scott and other small developers, if I was insensitive to your needs or your current situation, I am very, very sorry. The NEXTSTEP community is the greatest group of people I have met. I believe that they/we are capable of making a real difference in computing. I also feel that we should look to each other for moral and technical support rather than looking to NeXT to provide these things. I believe that if we work together that we will continue to be a strong, vibrant community that can and will make a positive influence on the world. > > I guess now I can expect the inevitable flames from Dave, and I'm sure > that Glenn will jump on me about this too! :-) > Thanks and I am sorry for any hurt that I caused.

On-line documentation for the library is being added as well. - ld++ Command Wrapper - This wrapper will prevent C++ developers from having to look at mangled names when there is a link error. The errors will be expressed in the native C++ names. Now, I am not as up on GNU as I should be, so I don't know if this means that the newest compiler with both objective-c and c++ is going to be available or not? Is it? Does this mean that libg++ and appkit can be used in the same program? Along the same lines, in objective-c++ (is this the new name, I saw someone post it like this once...) returning one of the data elements through a function call is expensive compared to using an in-line function For example, - (int) rank { return r; } vs. inline Card::rank () {return r;} How well does objective-c++ allow you to do the second thing inside an object whose specification is mostly in terms of objective-c? Also, in the above example, r and rank are distinct for the benefit of c++ but the r in the objective-c could be replaced by rank. How is this resolved in objective-c++? Thanks, Mark Stankus

It presents more patches to disable (nearly) all the power off-type functionality NeXT so kindly provides, brokenly, in NeXTSTEP 3.1, and clarifies some points of that previous posting. It also gives a pointer to where details about what the patches do can be found. **NOTE** **NOTE** **NOTE** These patches apply only to the NeXTSTEP 3.1 distribution for NeXT hardware. Under NeXTSTEP 3.1, 1) the login window has two buttons labeled "Reboot" and "Power" that allow a user to reboot and power down from the login window. 2) the PowerOffDisabled loginwindow default is ignored by the Workspace. 3) the Workspace Manager displays a button labeled "Power Off" in the Log Out panel. All of these features may be undesirable in a public lab. The PowerOffDisabled default can be used to disable the buttons in the login window, but they are still shown and push in when clicked (a bad user interface decision, IMHO). The program below patches the loginwindow.app, Workspace.app, and WM.app to: 1) remove the two buttons from the login window altogether 2) make the Power key ignored by Workspace.app (i.e., when someone is logged in) 3) removes the Power Off button from WM.app's Log Out panel Note that the Power key is not disabled while at the login window. These patches has been applied to the NeXT machines in the NeXT lab at Purdue and no adverse effects have been noted.

In Obj-C++, there are two distinct types of objects, C++ and Obj-C. You cannot inline a method call to an Obj-C object, because until run time, you don't know what kind of object you are sending the message to. It is often quite advantageous to inline a call to a C++ object (speed, etc.). In general, I would only use C++ for operations that are truely time-critical, because the loss of flexibility from dynamic binding, or for objects that are unlikely to need subclassing, such as a vector or matrix class. > Also, in the above example, r and rank are distinct for the > benefit of c++ but the r in the objective-c could be replaced > by rank. How is this resolved in objective-c++? Hmmm. I'm not sure what you mean here. In either example, you have an instance variable named r, and a method named rank. If you mean that you can have both instance variables and methods with the same name in Obj-C, then that is really a non-problem because the two types of objects are distinct. Now, that's not to say that they can't work together. An Obj-C object can have a C++ object as an instance variable, and vice-versa.

I agree with you. NeXT does a pretty good job, though, all in all. You should try Apple's developer support sometime (not that I have tried in quite some time). You're lucky to get any personal attention whatsoever. Apple does have a nice CD-ROM developer product that they send out to developers, though, with sample sources, docs, and helpful stuff of various sorts. The trick to having a good developer support organization (I used to run one, at Adobe) is to correctly balance the needs of the many with the needs of the important few. Many, many, many "developers" never do anything but hack up their own toy programs. Some actually participate in the freeware/shareware community, which is a step up from that, and some few actually ship commercial products. It's tough to simultaneously provide excellent support for a developer like Lotus or Borland and also provide an adequate-to-useful level of support for everybody else. Part of it is being able to tell the difference between a small but serious developer and a dorm room hacker. It's expensive to guess wrong, which was David's point that they'll help you *after* you've shipped a viable product. They'll also help you if you can convince them that you are "worth" helping in the allocation-of-valuable-resources sense of "worth". That's easy if you're a key engineer on a killer product at Lotus, and harder if you're not. But that problem is not limited to NeXT. You'll actually get much better help from NeXT than most vendors, because they have so few large developers to deal with these days :-) -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Electronic Frontier Foundation, member #054

I agree with you that it could use an overhaul. When we wanted to do a mailing to their customer list, they didn't even know who their customers were, for the most part. An outside service maintained the database, and it appeared only to have people who had actually sent in registration cards for NEXTSTEP 3.0.

In both cases, I can't get the resulting file to print on a non-NeXT printer. dont save it, print it to a file. the print panel has several buttons at the bottom so you can do different things with the generated postscipt (preview, fax etc) one of the buttons lets you direct the postscript to a file instead of the printer. there are options in the file-save panel that affect the final PostScript. you probably dont need to change them.

On the Devt side, I put up the three recommended suites: forgotten the names, but they included the full bookshelf set (sysADM and NeXTSTEP Devt docs) and it only consumed 85MB more of the system pack. Feel I must be missing something, or they include the full GNU sources in the 400MB estimate. This is good news indeed. I have tried to get them to send me the GNU source on media. Met with a dead end on the 800-try-next number. Where do I get it? What did I fail to install? Maybe the other 200MB are reserved for swap space.

Good question! Has anyone seen the info on this yet? My group has called NeXT and asked them to send us the full info on this and they told us it wasn't ready yet and that we'll see it in a few months. In the meantime they keep sending us copies of the white papers we picked up at expo. NeXT: Do you want developers on NS or not? We don't need more white papers. We _have_ NEXTSTEP already.

In a public lab, this feature may be undesirable. The PowerOffDisabled default can be used to disable the buttons, but they are still shown in the window and push in when clicked (a bad user interface decision, IMHO). The program below patches the loginwindow.app to eradicate the restart and power buttons. It makes the loginwindow.app's LoginButton class instance method initWithImage:altImage:andString: a no-op (just return nil). This patch has been applied to the machines in the NeXT lab at Purdue (like sonata.cc.purdue.edu for instance), and no adverse effects have been noted. This program must be run as root, since it writes to the file /usr/lib/NextStep/loginwindow.app/loginwindow. An archive with a compiled executable has been submitted to sonata.cc.purdue.edu.

I usually use mathematica v2.0.4 to generate an array of plots and use the "psfix" program from mathematica to save them in an EPS file. This figures will then be included in my documents prepared with FrameMaker v3.0. Since I don't have a printer, I will save a PS version of the document and send it to my school account either with modem or floppy. Most of the figure except the one made with mathematica will print OK. Sometimes I could still print the page if I add a space in the first line of the file, between "%!" and "PS" with unknown reason. But now, It doesn't work any more.....The page contains the figure will just die and never come out. I'm pretty sure it only happen if I include PS figures from Mathematica since other EPS file from Diagram and SciPlots are just fine. The printers in school I used are HP-PA700 with HP-LJ4 and SUN-IPC with HP-LJ3. The NeXT is a 040/25 monocube with NS3.1. Any help would be appreciate, Thanks in advance, Andy

In the meantime, before apps disappear :-), I rejoice in the spirit of the NeXT community! Right now in the c.s.n.* newsgroups we have threads going or starting about 3 shrinkwrapped apps (1 shipping, 2 coming: Paste-Up, NewGrazer Pro, Mesa 2). The market itself is exercising a very real-time influence on the development of these products; the manufacturers are getting priceless, well-though-out advice on exactly what features their customers want! (sure, there's some flamage, but it's trivial campared to the substantive input I've seen posted) Since most NeXTSTEP developers are small outfits, and since we're a small community, this all strikes me as a very healthy, neighborly, democratic way to do things.

Message-ID: <SHIN.93Aug14122507@sgtp.esug.co.jp> Date: 14 Aug 93 03:25:07 GMT Sender: shin@sgtp.esug.co.jp Distribution: comp Organization: SG Total Planning, Japan We, SGPT, happily announces that we have started to deliver Databag. About DataBag ============= Using NeXT computer for the daily work, you often come across information/data which you want to save for later use. In such a case, use DataBag instead of the ordinal NeXTSTEP SavePanel. DataBag is a Personal Data Archiver application, which has the following aspects: (1) DataBag manages your valuable data for you. With DataBag, you can collect data in one place. Collecting them in one place generates many merits. (2) What you have to do is only one thing. Transfer data to DataBag using NeXTSTEP data input operation like Cut&Paste, file dragging, or Services Menu etc.. And DataBag takes care of the somewhat tedious settlement which is commonly associated with data management. For example, you need not to worry about the file name for data, nor about the key definition for later data search. (3) With DataBag, you can save all the data types which NeXTSTEP officially offers. Saving Emacs buffer/region content is also possible. (4) For data search, DataBag uses Librarian. The filter service program, with which Librarian can recognize DataBag data-format, is included. Because Librarian has powerful indexing function, it enables incredible fast search even if the data storage becomes large quantities. (5) You can launch data resided on the DataBag window by double clicking. This feature reduces the necessity of WorkSpace. Requirement =========== DataBag requires NEXTSTEP 3.0 or more. NEXTSTEP 2.* is unsuitable. We are delivering Black hardware version, but if you request, White hardware (Intel) version is also available now. Price ===== US$XXX.XX. We don't provide the educational price. How to Get DataBag Demo Version =============================== We will place DataBag demo version in some ftp-site in a week or so. Besides ftp, we can send it by e-mail(NeXTMail). The e-mail size is about 700Kbyte. If you prefer snail mail to e-mail, sending it by a floppy is also available. Please let us know your address in the latter case. The demo version can save maximum 50 data. Because 50 data is somewhat large quantities for a normal NeXT user, we think that you can experience DataBag thoroughly. Complete on-line manual is included in the demo version. Our Address =========== SGTP Nishi-Shinjuku 3-111-4 Hasuda city, Saitama pref. Japan 349-01 voice: 81-48-769-9560 (We can't speak English. Japanese only!) fax: 81-48-769-5154 e-mail: info@esug.co.jp Any questions/requests are welcome. Thank you. -- Shin'ichirou Sugou (NeXTmail acceptable)

You can jack it right in if you have a cable. The cable is different from the '040 cube cable, but the same as a Mac or Amiga one. It is true, however, that you won't be able to boot from the CD-ROM. If you write a new boot block on an OD as in the instructions, it won't work. The block given in the 3.1 release is wrong. Get one from the 3.0 release. If you don't have the 3.0 release, you might be in trouble. If you just want to upgrade from scratch, write the boot block to an OD, hook up the CD-ROM drive, and boot from OD. Works fine. If you don't, you probably need to run UpgradePrep.app from the 3.0 release first so it can handle CD file systems. I think that's on the 3.1 release too, but it comes on floppy, of course.

You can install a working 3.1 development system on an OD from a machine running 3.1 if you leave out Literature and some of the other stuff (use BuildDisk).

Looking for minimal costs above the upgrade cost. I did ten of these in the last week. Well, I went from 3.0 (I did 2.1 -> 3.0 last year), but It Just Works, trust me. The hardest part will be getting UpgradePrep off floppy. After that, it's cake. Slow, but easy. :-) If you need any gritty help, I might be able to give you suggestions. 3.1 goes faster on '030s than 3.0 did.

The adaptec 1542B with both a large hard disk (1G) and SCSI cdrom works just fine. However if you intend to use sound there are definite problems with the adaptec 1542B and the proaudio spectrum. If anyone has any idea what scsi adapter works with the gateway 2000 4dx2-66v (with scsi disk and scsi cdrom) and also does not conflict with the proaudio spectrum, I would love to hear it.

Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1993 19:15:26 GMT Hi, I am creating a NeXTmail birthday card for my girlfriend who is about to return from vacation. I'm trying to make a really snazzy message with lots of attachments - sounds, embedded TIFFs, and other applications that do interesting things when you click 'em. I'm also collecting voice clips (for Lip Service) via telephone from friends of hers that don't live nearby, so she can listen to birthday greetings from those people. (By the way, does anyone know how to change the lip TIFF that the Lip Service messages use, on a one-by-one basis?) This may seem like a bizarre request, but as Raquel (aka 'Rocky') is a net user and e-mail personality, I'd like to collect a few NeXTmail birthday greetings from people around the country and hopefully around the world. I don't think it really matters that she will not know these people, since it would be meaningful enough just to know that people would take the time to do something like this. (Do people really send anonymous people strange, entertaining e-mail messages on their birthdays? People do.) Also, I'm just beginning to poke around with my MIDI keyboard again, which is attached to my serial port B. Can anyone send me some kind of MIDI demo that would play a MIDI tune on the keyboard, or at least as a normal sound (ideally "Happy Birthday" of course!) when you double click it? Although I can't ask for the world, I would again be very grateful and impressed if a talented programmer could throw together a real quick thing to play a MIDI file on serial port B, if such a thing doesn't already exist. And if you really get a kick out of this idea and have a bunch of people around the computer when you're really bored, sing Happy Birthday to Rocky and send it to me for inclusion in the message! Thanks a lot, and if you have any problems with my message being inappropriate to this newsgroup or something, please send mail to me and not back to the group. Send contributions to the birthday card to me via NeXTmail: eric@whyanext.com. I'll be sure to include them. :-) Eric -- Eric Schwartz eric@whyanext.com (NeXTmail spoken here) Have you ever run into someone who was gruntled, ruly, or peccable?

Wu > bmwu@athena.mit.edu > I installed a floppy in my cube. I got the drive from Cube Route. They supplied the cable but I had to get the mount kit elsewhere. This is no big deal as it's the standard drive mount kit which works on all that PC garbage. Hooking up the drive is simple, but mounting it is not as easy. You have to cut a slot in the cube's faceplate. I arranged my system with the OD on top (full height), the floppy in the middle and a half height HD on the bottom. If you only have a half height hard disk and no OD, you may be able to align the floppy drive without having to cut the faceplate. You won't be able to mount the drive in a standard spot and line it up with the precut slot. Anyway, I'll assume you have an OD and explain how I set up such a system. First a warning. You will be drilling and cutting. Don't do this near any computer parts (boards, disks, power supply...) because metal filings are deadly. Also, this procedure worked for me on my cube. If your cube is different or if you screw up, don't blame me. My job is to shed light and not to master. You have to take the cube pretty much all the way apart. That is, remove the system board, power/disk tower, guide slots, motherboard, etc. It is pretty straight forward and kind of obvious how to do this. Bottom line is you have to remove the faceplate. I did some assemble/measure/disassemble loops until I figured out exactly where everything would fit. The floppy drive slot needs to be slightly above the bottom OD cutout. I drilled two lines of holes, one and two ridges over the cutout. Like this... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> top part of plate - deleted >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>******************>>>>>>>>> (holes drilled) >>>>>>>>******************>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>###############################>> >>###############################>> (bottom OD cutout) >>###############################>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Actually, the holes are drilled in the depression between ridges. Make the lines of holes a little wider than a floppy disk and centered. Measure first, save yourself potential agony. You can't buy a new faceplate and a whole new case (if they are available) is like $400. Take your time and be triple sure before you cut. Use new bits and expect to kill at least one of them. Then I took a file and evened off the new cutout. Probebly I should have used a router for a nice clean factory looking cut. Next time I take the thing apart... You also have to trim the piece that covers the bottom OD slot. Use a drill and whatever gnarly tools you need to remove the four middle tabs from one side of the piece so it looks like... __ __ __ __ /|| || | | || ||\ (O| |##########################| |O) \|| || || || || || || || ||/ -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- This is where I screwed up. I cut this piece a little too close making the damage slightly visible. A bit of black magic marker in the appropriate spot covered this up, but next time I'll be more careful. Clean the faceplate and trim piece to get rid of any metal particles. So now you've got a faceplate with an extra hole in it and a trim piece with a few missing teeth. Put the faceplate and motherboard back in the cube. Mount the floppy in the drive tower. Slide the tower in to see where the drive lines up. You may have to experiment to find the proper orientation for the drive mount. What you are trying to do is get as close to lined up as you can with the predrilled holes. It won't line up well enough to use, so just get it as close as it goes. With the tower and faceplate installed, look thru the new cutout and see how far off you are. You will have to bring the floppy drive forward and either up or down (depending on your drive mount hardware). Mine had to go up about 1/4" and forward a bit more than that. Measure several times. Now remove the drive tower from the cube and take it apart. That is, remove the power supply and all drives so all you have is the metal bracket. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP! You have to drill new mounting holes as indicated by your measures. Drilling produces tiny metal flakes which can wreck your computer so you want the bracket free and clear. Drill the new holes and clean up the bracket. Reassemble. -- Patrick Hester ph@pencom.com 212-513-7777 NeXT Mail OK =8(\/\) -<-@

(Hardware: HP Vectra 486U/66, EISA, 20MB RAM, embedded Ultra VGA video, 240MB IDE drive, 430MB SCSI drive, AHA1740 SCSI-2 adapter, Toshiba XM3401 CD-ROM drive, 3.5" floppy drive;OS: OS/2 2.1 installed on the IDE drive) Well, it seems that NeXT stretched a little bit the list of compatible hardware. (That may bring them a few extra first time sales, but not many friends and repeat customers.) So far, I had no luck installing NS/FIP on my PC. The installation program simply can't find my CD-ROM drive. According to the instructions, you are supposed to set the CD-ROM drive at SCSI address 1. (By itself, this request shows how poorly conceived the installation process is. If you have an internal drive, and it doesn't happen to be installed at SCSI address 1, you have to open the computer box, take out the drive, change the jumpers, put it back ...) So, I installed my drive at SCSI address 1. Next, you are required to disable any IDE drives you have. Another less than intelligent request, but what can you do. So, I disable my IDE drive. Now I have the hard drive I want to install NS on at SCSI address 0, and the CD-ROM drive at SCSI address 1--as per instructions. Ready to try. Insert the 3.5" diskette in the floppy drive insert the CD-ROM in its drive, and restart the computer. The BIOS on the SCSI card confirms that I have an HP hard drive at address 0 and a Toshiba CD-ROM drive at address 1. I get the "loading mach kernel" message, then CPU: EISA id <some value> slot 4: EISA id <some value> (this is my AHA1740 SCSI adapter) slot f: EISA id <some value> (Hmm, I don't know what this is; I have 5 slots and only #4 is occupied) Now a warning: Warning: Using internal backup device configuration tables Then a failure: PCPointer probe: mouseInit failure (Why, it's there!) Some "Registering" messages follow, which seem to succeed, a "Resetting SCSI Bus" message (what's to be reset?), and a few more "Registering" messages for the floppy drive.

At this point there was not much I could do, except send a message to "nextanswers." The information I received wasn't of much help, but it confirmed my suspicion that NeXT was not very honest when they included the Vectra 486U on the list of compatible hardware. I found out, for instance, that they disabled the embedded Ultra VGA video system and used instead the Ultra VGA card. Explanation: "card is required to display color under NEXTSTEP." (One small detail: the embedded video is in no way less capable than the card. Why the request to disable it and force the user to buy an extra card is beyond me.) Anyway, nothing about conditions that might cause the NS install program to not find the CD-ROM drive. (Unless the install program expects the SCSI card to be an ISA card, or to be configured in "standard" mode. If that turns out to be the case, I have no interest in making other attempts to install NS. I'll just write Mr. Jobs to thank him for taking my money.)

Mainly I've chipped in with sys-admin issues, I imagine. In any case, note that I've never asked for any "developer support" from NeXT, so whatever I have picked up I've done on my own. I've gotten a lot farther with NeXTSTEP development on my own than I got with Macintosh development on my own, and I imagine I've spent less money doing it too. It does require a little time though, and time is something I don't have enough of. The most helpful things for me have been example applications that included source code. I just remember where I've seen a feature that I'm interested in, and then I poke around in it's source to see how it did what I wanted. Between that and the General Reference books, and later Simson & Garfinkels book, you can get the hang of a lot of things. Also note that posts are usually answered by people comfortable with answering in this medium.

It can't find your CD-ROM drive because you don't have a supported SCSI card, and yes, you can use the devices listed if they have a bootable NeXTSTEP partition on them. > The information I received wasn't of much help, but it > confirmed my suspicion that NeXT was not very honest when they > included the Vectra 486U on the list of compatible hardware.

It DOES use the onboard video for 640 x 480, in 2-bit monochrome. For color, NeXTSTEP needs a high-performance (EISA or localbus) card that can linearly map itself using 4-4-4 or 5-5-5 RGB mapping within 16-bit color values. Don't try to claim that the "embedded video is in no way less capable..." unless you know what you're talking about. Again, this requirement is specifically listed in the same compatibility guide that lists the Vectra 486U: For color or 8-bit grayscale, you need an EISA graphics card! > Anyway, nothing about conditions that might cause the NS > install program to not find the CD-ROM drive. Except the lack of a supported SCSI card. The adaptec 1540/2 B and C work fine, as do the other cards listed as supported under 3.1. Either of these should let you install NeXTSTEP.

I've seen a lot of postings from people along the lines of "Help! I can't get <x> to work in order to install NEXTSTEP!". Naturally most of what you hear are problems; satisfied customers don't usually post. I just got an Intel GX Professional (are a lot of these selling?) and it is very fast! I basically didn't want to deal with the headaches of being on my own about installation and problems (Dealer: "NEXTSTEP? Wuzzat?"). I bought it from Alpine Computing Microage and it the experience was great! Much like getting a NeXT machine - I called and ordered from a person who was knowledgable about what the requirements for NS were, the machine showed up, I plugged it and it booted into NS! The only problem was that Intel shipped a bad board. The person I was working with, Kris Magnusson, called their Tech Support and got a board FedExed to me the next day. I hope that this message helps those people who've been considering NEXTSTEP and were confused (like me) by the dizzying array of options available. I really didn't want to spec out a system with no help and have to install it myself (plus I didn't have a CD-ROM drive!). I've had *awesome* service and support from Kris (Alpine has a group dedicated to NEXTSTEP and Unix systems) and I think that anyone who is considering getting a PC to run NS should consider calling Kris. He really bent over backwards to make sure I was satisfied. They deal in much more than Intel GX's, also. No headaches!

I believe the partition address is off by one and when Boot Manager runs the NS boot sector, the NS boot sector does not find the partition where NS is installed.

I currently have all the systems you mention running on one machine, but I have not been able to get NS to work with Boot Manager. I believe the partition address is off by one and when Boot Manager runs the NS boot sector, the NS boot sector does not find the partition where NS is installed. What I'm doing at this point is swapping MBRs. Can LILO boot NeXTStep? It's a free solution that may be easiest of all...

It seems that you didn't read the hardware compatibility guide carefully. The Adaptec 1740 is not supported, and does not work under 3.1. It does work under 3.2, but that is not available yet. Note the Adaptec 1740 *should* work in 1540 mode (and many people have expected it to work), but it does not due to a bug in Adaptec's firmware. M Carling President, Bay Area NeXT Group

The usual problem causing failure at this point is an *incompatible* SCSI card. Yours is an Adaptec 1742 which doesn't work yet. Even the 1540 & 1542 cards have problems, especially with Dell ME machines & an ATI GUP Graphics card. Changing the SCSI ID has been known to help, but it is not clear under what conditions, or whether for this particular problem.

Then the "problem" is probably on the NNTP server machine. Open a Terminal window and type /usr/etc/mconnect -p 119 server-machine-name If you see something like connecting to host xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx), port 119 connection open 200 xxx InterNetNews server INN 1.4 20-Mar-93 ready -or- 200 xxx NNTP server version 1.5.11 (10 February 1991) ready ... everything's fine.

Then I discovered later that Mandelbrot.app for 3.1 was compiled to use only 680X0 code on the NeXT, not for the DSP as in 3.0. I guess this was to make the demo MAB compatible with NSI, but it was still annoying. I promptly reinstalled my old 3.0 version of Mandelbrot.app and it runs much faster than a silly Intel-GX 486/66.

Running fdisk /mbr on the MBR installed by NS and reinstalling OS/2's Boot Manager did the trick. The only problem is that NT's boot info gets clobbered by the NS installation. Reinstalling NT (there may be some other ways to get NT back without reinstalling, but NT installation is fast and smooth, so I reinstalled, besides I wanted to change the file system on the NT partition) brought back the ability to boot NT from BM. So, if you want to get DOS/WIN, NT, OS/2 and NS all booting from OS/2's Boot Manager try the following: 1) partition your HD as suggested in the post below At this point I'm using: (1) 1 Boot Manager (2) 100 DOS/WIN (c:fat) (3) 100 data (d:fat) (4) 100 NT (e:ntfs) (5) 90 OS/2 (f:hpfs) (6) 100 data (g:hpfs) (7) 100 data (h:hpfs) (8) 406 free space (NS) 2) Install DOS/WIN 3) Install Boot Manager and OS/2 and add partitions (2), (5) and (8) to the BM menu 4) Install NS into the 406 MBs of free space 5) Boot from DOS and run fdisk /mbr 6) Boot from OS/2 (floppy boot) and reinstall Boot Manager 7) Install NT 8) Boot NT and use Disk Manager to set the BM partition back to active You should now be able to boot all four systems from BM.

Just make drive D: installable and proceed. - After OS/2 has been installed shutdown the system. Do a cold power off boot. - Cold boot the machine with the NEXTSTEP boot diskette. - Proceed with normal NEXTSTEP install and you should get the following disk installation option screen: Type 1 to erase the entire disk and use all 667 MB for NEXTSTEP. Type 2 to set aside some space for DOS and use the rest for NEXTSTEP. Type 3 to keep existing partitions and use the 462 MB free space for NEXTSTEP. Type 4 to use the 184 MB DOS extended partition for NEXTSTEP. Type 5 for advanced options (in English only). ---> Choose option number 3 and proceed with the NEXTSTEP install - After NEXTSTEP has been installed, re-boot the machine and select 'd' from the NEXTSTEP boot manager menu to boot DOS. - When DOS has booted, run the FDISK program to set the active partition to the first partition, the BOOT Manager partition. Then exit fdisk. - Now run the DOS FDISK program again but with the following parameter: fdisk /mbr This command removes the NEXTSTEP boot manager from the DOS partition. - Now re-boot the machine and the boot manager should come up. Select OS/2 - Once OS/2 has booted, run the OS/2 FDISK program and name the NEXTSTEP partition and add it to the boot manager menu. - You should now have a machine with DOS, NEXTSTEP, OS/2 listed in the boot manager menu when the machine starts up.

I wonder if NeXT's MAB format does not allow for additional processors of different types - I wouldn't know, but it seems silly not to show off the DSP a little bit. Why did NeXT say the DSP was a mistake? Mandelbrot runs really fast with it. I only wish we had 96002 DSP's, and someone would write a ray-tracer demo. Based on the ALR Pentium 60MHz numbers I saw, expect a DSP-equipped NeXT to be right up there with the Pentium in running Mandelbrot. I always thought the DSP was interesting, but never bothered to learn the DSP assembly language. NeXT needed more "computation" examples, such as Mandelbrot.

I've seen a lot of postings from people along the lines of "Help! I can't get <x> to work in order to install NEXTSTEP!". Naturally most of what you hear are problems; satisfied customers don't usually post. I just got an Intel GX Professional (are a lot of these selling?) and it is very fast! I basically didn't want to deal with the headaches of being on my own about installation and problems (Dealer: "NEXTSTEP? Wuzzat?"). I bought it from Alpine Computing Microage and it the experience was great! Much like getting a NeXT machine - I called and ordered from a person who was knowledgable about what the requirements for NS were, the machine showed up, I plugged it and it booted into NS! The only problem was that Intel shipped a bad board. The person I was working with, Kris Magnusson, called their Tech Support and got a board FedExed to me the next day. I hope that this message helps those people who've been considering NEXTSTEP and were confused (like me) by the dizzying array of options available. I really didn't want to spec out a system with no help and have to install it myself (plus I didn't have a CD-ROM drive!). I've had *awesome* service and support from Kris (Alpine has a group dedicated to NEXTSTEP and Unix systems) and I think that anyone who is considering getting a PC to run NS should consider calling Kris. He really bent over backwards to make sure I was satisfied. They deal in much more than Intel GX's, also. No headaches! FYI: Alpine Computing Microage Kris Magnusson (801) 268-8877 Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with Alpine Computing Microage or Kris Magnusson, I'm just an *extremely* satisfied customer and I wanted to let everyone else in on the action. - Drew -- +--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Drew Davidson | "Never ask a programmer if he'll have | | Software Guy | another cup of coffee because it's | | First National Bank of Chicago | nobody's damn business how much he's | | drew@fnbc.com (NeXTmail) | already had!" - me | +--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------+

Message-ID: <austinCBy288.Asr@netcom.com> Organization: NETCOM On-line Communication Services (408 241-9760 guest) Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1993 07:31:20 GMT Trying to get CDPlayer.app working on NSFIP I found that not all CD-ROMs work. I first read the articles about CDPlayer.app and made sure that cdaudio.util and CDPlayer were owned by root and had set uid, and turned on the Public window server. 1) Hooked up a Toshiba CD-ROM (in IBM case); inserted my new CD "4 Non Blonds" and .... grind grind grind for about 10 minutes. I ejected the CD and low an behold CDPlayer.app starts. (I then fiddle for awhile with no better luck.) :-( 2) Disconnect the Toshiba, hook up an NEC-74 CD-ROM; insert my CD and after about 30 seconds...presto "Please eject external disk". (I then fiddle for a while with no better luck.) :-( 3) Disconnect the NEC-74, hook up a TEAC CD-50 CD-ROM; insert my CD and presto CDPlayer.app launches and soon I have wonderful music blasting through the room. :-) So if you can't get CDPlayer to work just keep swaping CD-ROMs until you find one it likes.

Here is a sad story about a NeXTSTEP for Intel processor user.... We have installed a NSI on a 486 DX2 66. One night I was doing C programming on that machine (boot up as DOS), and everything goes fine. When I was done, I reboot the machine and it went back to NSI. But for whatever reason, when the SysOp came back, he said he cannot boot up the NSI. Right now (I think) you can only telnet into that machine. So he thinks I screwed up the machine, and he *LOCKED* out my NeXT account.... :( and even now, he still cannot boot up NSI. Is there anyone know what the hack is going on? Or is there anyone have a similar problem with NSI? That night I was using WATCOM C 8.5 doing some 32-bit programming. And I'm sure the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS didn't changed by WATCOMC or ME... What is going on? Are not NSI suppose can boot up as DOS and run DOS programs? Derek (The one who lost his NeXT account this morning....)

When saving as PostScript (by going through the Print panel), make sure you *don't* have the NeXT Printer selected. If necessary, create another printer in NetInfo - make it an Apple LaserWriter. Also make sure you are asking for device-independant PostScript. This should get you PostScript that can be printed anywhere. Experiment with sending that raw PostScript file to another printer to make sure that the PostScript is okay. Note that displaying the EPS on the Mac will not work; the Mac, not having Display PostScript, requires the presence of a preview bitmap. I think there is a program on the archives to add the Mac preview bitmap for you. Even though it doesn't display on the Mac, it should print properly.

I wanted to make a comment about login panel tiffs for 3.1. It seems they did two very nice things with the loginwindow: 1) It centers any image. Not just top/bottom as before, but left/right also. 2) The login/password fields are overlayed on the image *including* the field border. This makes it very easy to use *any* image as a login tiff, as long as it is wide enough and tall enough. i.e. the tiff image does not need any special modifications to be a perfectly fine and good looking login tiff. My few favorite login tiffs are just ordinary images that I didn't modify in any way. Ok, the bad part of loginwindow: 1) The login/password fields are *way* too long. It would be nice if there was some .nib file we could modify to specify for ourselves how to center the fields, how big they are, etc. Maybe we'll see that later. Michael

Not just top/bottom as before, but >left/right also. I think that's how it worked for 3.0, too. I forget for sure if it was different for earlier versions of the OS, but I think 2.1 also worked that way. In both 3.0 and 3.1, the login text fields are positioned wrt the LL corner *of the tiff*. I made dozens of them based on this principle, so I know it worked. >2) The login/password fields are overlayed on the image >*including* the field border. I'm not sure I know what you're saying here. As with 3.0, there is a pair of plain white text blocks. In 3.0, these blocks were disguised by the fact that your tiff also had white rectangles in exactly the right places, bordered or not, as you chose. In 3.1, the plain text fields are covered up by an image of bordered white rectangles that has a transparent (alpha) background. The text (originally, the words "Name" and "Password") is another tiff with transparent background. Finally, since 3.1 has added power and reboot buttons, the images of those buttons (pressed and unpressed) are four more tiffs with transparent backgrounds. >This makes it very easy to use *any* image as a login tiff, >as long as it is wide enough and tall enough. i.e. the >tiff image does not need any special modifications to be a >perfectly fine and good looking login tiff. My few favorite >login tiffs are just ordinary images that I didn't modify in >any way. That's basically correct, though because of the transparent tiffs overlaid on your image (unless you change them too), legibility could be a problem, depending on the colors of your image. As a matter of fact, your image doesn't *have* to be wide enough or high enough; if it's not, loginwindow simply clears enough screen space to accomodate the text and button areas, which will leave white patches sticking out above and to the right of your (too small) image. >Ok, the bad part of loginwindow: >1) The login/password fields are *way* too long. Too long is a relative concept, I think. They are certainly way too long for any reasonable amount of text. But I think they are the size they are for a prefectly reasonable spatial-design purpose in the original 3.1 tiff. >It would be nice if there was some .nib file we could modify >to specify for ourselves how to center the fields, how big >they are, etc. Maybe we'll see that later. As long as we're wishing, what I'd like is a large, well documented group of user-settable parameters in the defaults database, giving all the relevant sizes, positionings, fonts, and so forth. Perhaps even more useful would be to have the windowserver get the login panel stuff dynamically at each boot and subsequent logout, so we who play with these things would not have to exit the windowserver to see the results of our handiwork. This could actually make things more robust; if you screw up and point to a nonexistent file with your dwrite, it could go ahaead and use a system-provided file, instead of hanging loginwindow and requiring a single-user boot to fix it. Just now what I'd like is a complete set of the known defaults that *could* be specified with DefaultManager, for example. I think the time to move is 1800 seconds. Several people have provided hints on how to discover these things, but I've never understood what NeXT thinks the virtue might be of not simply telling what they know. They seem to like their little mysteries around that place. -- [Jess Anderson <> Division of Information Technology, University of Wisconsin] [Internet: anderson@macc.wisc.edu {o"o} UUCP:{}!uwvax!macc.wisc.edu!anderson] [Room 3130 <> 1210 West Dayton Street / Madison WI 53706 <> Phone 608/262-5888] [-----> I've given up bars, rather than be seen as a wag tailing a dog. <-----]

I've always assumed one could switch the image by hanging a script on the LogoutHook, providing that still works under 3.1, or even in .logout, messy as that might be. But that would still leave you needing to restart the windowserver at every logout, which isn't really the right way to do things, I think. loginwindow.app should do its stuff the right way, that's what!

My problems with it are: 1. in most cases the floppy is not mounted using the name of the label, but with something like /no_name, or /boever (or something similar, I don't remember). Under 2.1 it was always /DOS, which is easy when you want to copy files to/from the floppy with scripts. 2. The date of files was under 2.1 set to something like the year 2099. Under 3.0 it is only 9 hours wrong. Has this something to do with the timezone ??? 3. When you copy a file from hard-disk to DOS-floppy the filename MUST be lowercase. While most filenames in NeXTstep are capitalized. Also automatic conversion to 8.3 format whould not have been that difficult. I don't remember how this case-sensitivity worked under 2.1, but I got much less pop-ups with warnings. If anyone has solutions for these problems, or if you can proove that I'm just stupid, please respond. If this is something we have to live with, maybe some NeXT person can tell us why they changed it and when they intend to change it back/again. Willem van Schaik schaik@cnplss5.cnps.philips.nl

Aren't they displayed too?) What I would like to see confirmed is the following: This ~ 300kb/min is compressed when -NXHosting to a remote window server. If so it reduces to 60k, which is below a modem ~ 100k/min (?) speed. Then it seems possible to do the same (use Create as my exemple) via a phone SLIP link. So NEXTSTEP remote is 'comfortably' usable over SLIP links. Suis-je dans les patates?

My 25MHz '040 Cube rated 26k dhrystones, 16.5 VAX Mips. The rating for the pentium is quite impressive in comparisson. I wonder how it rated on the NXFactor - that's where the big is bottleneck likely to be. From what I understand, it may be some time before we see video performance catch up to the Pentium's full potential. The NXFactor measures general video performance, and would shed some light on this. My guess is that this is probably around 2, where it should be much higher (NeXT cube is 1.0). Could someone post these values for various NS/I systems - it would also be very interesting to see the values for each individual test (window, composite,line,userpath,etc.).

They seem to like > their little mysteries around that place. Agreed completely. These dwrites seem like a really useful thing to know, and yet they're not documented *anywhere*. I think that it's high time someone started to compile them and post them regularly to the net. Of course, since blanket comments like my last one inevitably result in *someone* telling me to "do it yourself," I suppose I'll just have to do so. :-) And thus, I have culled the comp.sys.next.* articles for dwrite references, and put together a very preliminary dwrite listing. In the future, I see this expanding to become a kind of "Undocumented NeXTSTEP" kind of posting, filled with tidbits such as the API for the new 3.1 screensaver. I'll try to post the list monthly on .announce after it settles down. I hope that many people are willing to send contributions to this listing. In particular, it needs information on the other loginwindow dwrites (both 3.0 and 3.1), and I would love it if people would like to share anything they would like to see in an "Undocumented NeXTSTEP" kind of posting. My rough first draft follows. Flames to a minimum, please, and please send in ideas and contributions (as well as the inevitable correction). Stephen Peters - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - *** The Undocumented NeXTSTEP Listing *** *** last updated 8/23/93 *** DISCLAIMER: One of the older NeXTanswers had the following line attached to it: "Warning: we cannot guarantee the support of dwrites in future releases, so do not put this in your application or rely on it in any way." That is probably a good way to look at this list. Many of the items here may be useful, but there is *always* the chance that it won't be around in the next release of the software. One blatant example is NeXTSTEP 3.1's removal or rewriting of most of loginwindow's dwrites. In other words, this information is free. When 3.2 or 4.0 or whatever comes out, it may be worth every penny. The Dreaded Undocumented Dwrites All of the following can be specified at a command-line prompt by typing dwrite <app-name> <default> <value> *or* by using a GUI interface to the defaults database. One such possibility is DefaultMgr [available on the archives ??]. DefaultManager 3.0 is currently under development, and will be available commercially. [this is being done by Drew Davidson, correct? any comments on availability, Drew?] [I've heard that someone has put together a PreferencesModule for changing dwrites. Some mention should probably exist here]. For the most part, the only dwrites listed here are the ones that cannot be changed through Preferences or other means. I. Global dwrites a. Changing the default paper type. If you are using a different kind of paper (such as A4) for all your printing jobs, the dwrite GLOBAL NXPaperType A4 will change the default paper type, thus removing the necessity to change the paper type every time you wish to print. II. Loginwindow.app a. Specifying a screen saver. Until 3.1, you could easily specify a way to move the loginwindow around the screen to prevent burn-in. This was done using loginwindow MoveWhenIdle YES In 3.1, this has changed. To prevent burn-in, you can specify loginwindow ScreenSaverEnabled YES This will, by default, setup a screensaver which clears the screen to black, writes the hostname in gray and draws a large NeXT cube on the screen. At intervals, the cube and hostname will move to different positions on the screen. [I need more information on both pre-3.1 and 3.1 screensavers, such as TimeToIdle, etc.] b. Changing the loginwindow image. Use the dwrite loginwindow ImageFile <filename> to change the image on the login window. Starting with version 3.1, transparency can be used in the image. c. Running programs on login/logout If you set up the hooks loginwindow LoginHook <path/program> loginwindow LogoutHook <path/otherprogram> loginwindow will then run the specified programs whenever any user logs into or logs out of the Workspace. The LoginHook programs will be run *before* the Workspace starts, and LogoutHook will be run *after* the Workspace finishes, so these cannot be GUI applications. d. Preventing users from powering off the computer. loginwindow PowerOffDisabled YES should make it impossible for ordinary users to turn off the workstation. This seems to work for well for pre-3.1 machines, but there is some dispute as to it's usefulness for 3.1 [can anyone elaborate on this?]. III. Workspace.app a. Specifying programs to be auto-launched. Using the dwrite Workspace LaunchPaths <filename1>;<filename2>;[...] will set the given programs to launch automatically when the Workspace is started. The filenames should be separated by semicolons. b. Changing the default compression utility. You can change the tools that the Workspace uses to create and read its .compressed files by using, for example: Workspace compress /usr/bin/gzip Workspace uncompress /usr/bin/gunzip Workspace AlwaysTarForCompress YES [Is the last one necessary? I don't think so...] c. Changing the default editor. Some people would rather use Emacs or something similar instead of Edit. To use the GUI version of Emacs (available on the archives), use the dwrite Workspace DefaultOpenApp Emacs d. Limiting corefile sizes. Core dumps by default generate extremely large files for debugging purposes. To potentially save on disk space, you can limit the core file sizes using Workspace CoreLimit <size> [will using 0 eliminate core dumps entirely?] Finding Dwrites There are several ways for finding the dwrites that an application can be used. The brute-force method is to run 'strings' on the executable, which will search the executable for text strings and return all the matches. Needless to say, this returns a great deal more than just the names of the dwrites.

The problem coincided with my copying and playing around with AC CHEN from the Oregon archive. The problem first manifested itself with AC_CHEN dying on start up with the console message "YOU CHEATED", after working for about 2-3 days. Finally, on or about the fifth try, my machine crashed...viciously. It would hang on booting, when starting local services. (This only a day before I was leaving town for three weeks!) It took me a day to get my system back up, finally succeeding after checking some config files, fsck'ing in all 9 possible orderings of the three mounted volumes several times over. I have no idea what finally worked. At this time, the machine still hangs, but manages to stay up for seemingly random amounts of time (ie. 1 hour - 1 day). I have no idea what triggers it. Engage! now seems to hang sometimes when trying to launch certain apps (while it worked more or less perfectly before), and makes it impossible to launch other apps.

As members of the computing community, however, we see that things are never as simple as an article compiled by one author. There is no question that companies in Japan do things differently than the US, but there are three implicit problems I have with the article. First, refering to Japan as a single entity. This gives the wrong impression, keiretsu not withstanding. Second, as damaging to US businesses as Japanese tactics might be, US practices tend to be much more damaging. Consider US encryption policies, the flat-panel screen fiasco, and many others. Third, the notion of blocades to US business in Japan has coutner examples, such as Nippon Motorola. Finally, Motorola itself based its six-sigma policy on its experience with trying to enter the pocket pager market. The story is told that Motorola got specs from Japan which they thought were unreasonable, and impossible to achieve and still be profitable. So they thought they would catch the Japanese in the act of being protectionist. They sent employees to Japan with instructions to buy up several dozen pocket pagers at random from retail outlets. They brought them back to the US to test, and discovered to their surprise that not only did every one pass the spec Motorola was given, nearly all exceeded the spec by huge margins. Thus, they discovered that the ridiculous spec they were given was far from outrageous in the Japanese market, it was CONSERVATIVE. I only bring this up because there is a strong, perhaps coincidental parallel with the arguments we NeXT supporters have to field; that to succeed NeXT should stop trying to be innovative, and start playing along with what everyone else is doing, and the story above. In Japan, innovation is equivalent to success, while in the US, innovation usually means protracted conflict, general misinformation, and derision. Japan may be at war with the US, but so is the US.

Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc,alt.sys.pc-clone.gateway2000 From: dean@world.std.com (Dean S Banfield) Subject: GW 2000 and NeXTSTEP Message-ID: <DEAN.93Aug24102515@world.std.com> Sender: dean@world.std.com (Dean S Banfield) Organization: The World Public Access UNIX, Brookline, MA Distribution: comp Date: Tue, 24 Aug 1993 15:25:15 GMT There has been some discussion about what Gateway configuration to buy, how to configure it, and how well it runs NeXTSTEP for Intel Processors. Below is my set of experiences, which I offer by way of example to show the various trials I faced, and hopefully to reduce those of others who follow. I do finish with a few QUESTIONS, which can be found under the heading QUESTIONS. If you know about Gateway 2000 systems and their vagaries, please see if there are any questions you can help with. MY SYSTEM: Recent Dx2/66V with 16MB memory, 256K cache 424MB IDE WD 'Pihrana' drive (for NS/FIP) 212MB IDE WD " " (for DOS/Windows) 1542C Adaptec SCSI Controller NEC CDR84i CD-ROM (SCSI)* ATI Ultra Pro Graphics Video card w/2MB Gateway 2000 "Telepath" Fax/Modem w/ much bundled DOS/Windows software * Do NOT get the Gateway CD-ROM as it will not work with NS/FIP. It is not SCSI. NextStep won't understand it and you will ultimately have to send it back and get frustrated. I have not yet used the modem as I await my phone line. I understand there are Serial driver problems with NS/FIP, so my phone line and the driver fix may come hand in hand. I recommend that you get the NeXTAnswers index, and then the article about Gateway. This can be done by sending e-mail to nextanswers@next.com, subject INDEX ASCII. At the time it included no information about the currently shipping X30 Micronics motherboard, but has been updated to reflect the manufacturing shift within Gateway. If you are going to jump for a sound card, get the article from NextAnswers about the one you are interested in, as there are some serious problems with the popular sound cards. I am waiting for that to shake out, or someone to make a solid recommendation. ORDERING When I ordered, the Gateway salesperson I had knew nothing about NextStep, and that was fine with me. I'm a do-it-yourselfer when it comes to these things. I now realize that letting Gateway know exactly how you want the system configured will save you headaches down the road: 1) Ask to have the W7 jumper installed. This is a keyboard configuration jumper, which enables 'PS/2 keyboard' operations. It is documented as RESERVED on system charts in the manual, but is easily located on the motherboard if you read the manual. It is critical to a successful installation. You may have to do this yourself, which involves removing the cover of the machine. 2) If you want DOS/Windows at all, choose a disk configuration you like and have them partition the primary disk with adequate space for NS/FIP (unformatted) and a minimal DOS installation. NS/FIP will *not* install in a dual boot mode unless there is both a DOS partition and a NS partition on the primary drive. Here I screwed up. I had them install the DOS/Windows suite on the 212, assuming that I could use the entire 424 as a NS drive. This worked, but left me unable to access the DOS boot, because I had given the entire 424 over to NS. Let DOS have a minimum of about 7 or 8MB on the primary disk if you want no trouble. DOS can be entirely installed in about 7MB and then you can shift to another drive for your DOSsy stuff when booted to DOS. I have now given a miserly 1MB to DOS on my primary, and shift immediately to an 'Extended' DOS partition on my secondary (212MB) drive when booting to DOS. This re-installation required FDISKing the primary and secondary drives and performing a *very* manual install of DOS on the D: drive. DOS SETUP is not designed to let DOS go anywhere other than the C: drive. 3) If you are ordering a modem from Gateway ( I have no experience with mine yet), have them install the modem as COM2 and the mouse as COM1. NS must have a serial mouse at COM1 during install. It can be moved to COM2 as a configuration option, but why bother if you can't operate the configuration program with it at COM2. They set up my system with the modem at COM1, and the mouse on COM2. It took some messing to straighten this out, as they were fast and loose with the ribbon cables coming off the motherboard. Docs said that the 9 pin was COM1, but due to the modem, they cabled my 9 pin up as COM2. Had to trace back to the motherboard connection to figure that one out. 4) NS wants a minimum of 16MB memory to run. That is what I ordered. I now have a minimum NS system with a fully populated set of 4MB SIMMs. If you buy a 16MB system, insist on a 16MB SIMM module. Now, if I want to upgrade my memory, I'll have to start throwing away good 4MB SIMM modules! 5) Gateway is now shipping an ATI card that they regard as new and improved over the Ultra Graphics Pro. The Ultra Graphics Pro is supported, make sure the newer card is before you get frustrated trying to make it work in some compatibility mode. PRE-INSTALL Check that the W7 jumper is where it ought to be. See that your mouse is on COM1. Install your SCSI CD-ROM player yourself (Gateway doesn't sell one!). Check the install of DOS if you care. Do not place a primary DOS partition on more than one disk. NS boot will not understand this and hung my system during NS boot. Use the DOS extended partition for secondary disks. Follow the BIOS setup configuration stated in the NeXTAnswers help on Gateway. It does not cover IDE drives, and I've had mixed success with two IDE drives both Auto Configured and set in Block Mode On (see QUESTIONS below), INSTALL I saw a note in the Release Notes for 3.1 that on some systems you must eject the 3.5" diskette once the banner "Mach Operating System" appears, or things don't go so well. I did this, but don't know whether it was important. Much has been written about installing with the keyboard detached. With the correct installation of the W7 jumper, this was *not* necessary for me. When working through the NS install, you will see disturbing messages about the failure to find the pointing device, but then magically it works anyway. This is a mirage. The default for the install program includes a bogus B/W screen definition and a serial mouse (which works for you!). However, the driver that gets loaded into your permanent configuration is the PS/2 Mouse driver. Once you reboot, your mouse will be lost to you due to the driver that doesn't drive your mouse. All you have to do is configure the serial mouse and drop out the PS/2 Mouse driver within the configuration phase. If you screw up, you can recover. When the 'boot:' prompt appears, you can type 'config=default' and you will boot into the bogus B/W screen and serial mouse used during installation. You can move to the Configure.app and reconfigure your mouse properly. Note: If you have no sound board, like me, NS/FIP loads no sound capbility whatsoever. You must load the 'beep driver' in Configure.app to even get the smallest beeps out of your system. In spite of the dire warnings from NS, I installed the entire User and Dev systems 3.1 leaving off only the literature and Webster packages from the User system and it came to only 205MB. This after hearing that 330MB was a bare minimum and 400MB was recommended. I have yet to actually develop anything so I will see what consumption is like. I am a Unix person, so the native NS install as a standalone system left me a bit preturbed. The root account defaults to no password. The default account, 'me' hangs its directory off the root. You may wish to change this. I created a directory, '/u' and hung my user accounts off that. I also protected my root account with a password and removed the 'me' account from the system. QUESTIONS In spite of all this apparent success, a minor glitch still plagues my system. With two IDE drives, and a two partition primary, I experience *no* trouble booting to DOS. The C: and D: drives appear, and I move easily between them. Boot is no problem. The D: drive is an 'extended' DOS partition, as NS suggests. However, when I boot to NS, there is a troubling delay in the kernel intialization phase as it registers devices on the system. After finding my primary drive (hd0), there is a long delay, and when I get frustrated with the wait, I hit the keyboard. This produces a message: ide: Read error status=0x50,error=0x00,........ Followed by a message that hd1 is not in a known format, and has no valid label. When I enter NS, there is a pop-up that the drive is unreadable and it asks if I want to initialize it. I say no [ignore] and the drive is inaccessible to the system from NS. If I am overly impatient and strike the keyboard many times during this delay, the keyboard may become unavailable to log in. Any ideas? I didn't install Webster or Literature. Are they runnable from CD? How? Too slow to even bother, or tolerable? Other than root, what accounts are wide open on the system. I tried news, which appears to have a password. I will look through /etc/passwd. Any clues? Sound card? With Adaptec 1542C in the system Pro Media 16 can freeze up. This sounds like a show stopper. Where is this being addressed? Other alternatives? Is SoftPC available for NS/FIP? How much and/or when? CREDITS Many thanks to the comp.next.misc group, especially Paul Sears (sears@uh.edu) and Robert Lutwak (robert@argon.mit.edu) for early work on the W7 jumper.

I set up such a scheme for a bunch of networked NeXTs under 3.0, and though I haven't yet set it up again under 3.1 yet, it should work with little or no modification. The idea is add an entry to the /usr/adm/daily script to change the loginwindow's ImageFile entry to a random one in a directory of tiffs. This in itself doesn't change the login window, but if the machine gets rebooted or the window server restarted, you get a different login window. What I was primarily interested in doing was figuring out how to 1) choose randomly from a 'csh' script, and 2) determine from a script whether I was on a black & white or color machine. First these two scripts: /usr/local/bin/random: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/csh -f # Randomly returns one of it's arguments # C.D.lane (lane@camis.stanford.edu) # Wed Jun 30 11:07:25 PDT 1993 if ($#argv == 0) exit 1 set pattern = '^.*\([0-9][0-9]*\) [0-9][0-9]:\([0-9][0-9]\):\([0-9][0-9]\) .*$' set random = `date | sed "s/${pattern}/\1 \2 \3/"` @ random = ( ( $random[1] + ( $random[2] * 60 ) + $random[3] ) % $#argv ) + 1 echo $argv[$random] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 'random' script randomly returns one of it's arguments based on time of day AND day of the month.

This is an area that I think people just forget to cover when they are writing programs. Sometimes I'm almost in physical pain seeing programs that are slow in various aspects when I _know_ from experience that they could be _fast_ in that area. They just need some work. After the majority of the program is done, _all_ developers should spend a week or so running -NXShowPS and _reading_ the output. Look for things like "0 setgray 1 setgray" and other code that is useless. Then look for code that is redundant and can be removed, and look for ways to rearrange other code so that some code is then redundant and can be removed. Then, look for code that can be made more efficient by drawing it differently (instead of "1 setlinewidth 10 10 lineto 20 10 moveto stroke", use "10 10 10 1 rectfill", or better yet use NXRectFill()). In other words, figure out the absolute optimal code for what you are trying to do by hand - and then see if you can make your program generate that code when it needs to accomplish that output. Then, look for things that can be "railroaded" so that transmission time is shorter (instead of two NXRectFill() calls, use a single NXRectFillList()). Don't use multiple PS*() calls, instead put them all into a single pswrap and call _that_. Read the Adobe Purple Book, and then read it again. In my experience, the major debit from sending too much code to the windowserver is _not_ that it takes longer to draw - it's that it takes longer to encode it, send it, and then decode it on the server. Doing "0 setgray 1 setgray" doesn't take very long at all to run on the windowserver, because it really doesn't _do_ anything, but it requires a disproportionate amount of time to transmit relative to the amount of work it accomplishes. This overhead is your enemy. [Often people ask me "How can I improve my app." Me being a benevolent guru, I always answer ... and I always say something on the order of "spend about 16 more hours in InterfaceBuilder." They go "Why? What should I do?", to which I must respond "_Find_ things to do. Look at other programs and figure out what you like and dislike about them, and fix your GUI elements so that the likes are pandered to, the dislikes removed. If you can't spend 16 hours just looking for things to change, perhaps you should look for a different job." This same theory applies to optimizations. No, you should not make optimizations your fundamental core goal of everything. But, you _should_ spend a significant amount of time towards the end of the project reviewing things. Likewise, you should spend a lot of time at the beginning of rewrites or redesigns pondering why the previous version _wasn't_ efficient. At NeXT, I know that in the past that a quarter or so before release they had a month devoted entirely to performance considerations. I don't think this much is necessary for most projects - most projects need merely a week or two - but it does indicate that performance is important.] Later, -- scott hess <shess@ssesco.com> <To the BatCube, Robin> 12901 Upton Avenue South, #326 Burnsville, MN 55337 (612) 895-1208 Anytime!

Then look for code that is redundant and can be removed, >[...description of optimizing PS ...] Optimization of PostScript for heavy drawing areas is a good idea, but I find most applications suffer from misuse of AppKit objects more than misuse of PS. E.g. Browsers/Matrices being loaded and reloaded several times, inspectors doing lots of updates, controls having their values set to the same thing over and over - this can be far more damaging than an extra setgray here and there. A couple tricks I adopted early on (maybe it was because I had an '030) was to: - override Application so that if updateWindows is called it happens only ONCE for that event. - write a couple categories for Cell and Control which has methods like setFastEnabled, setFastIntValue, etc. etc. These will only set the value if it is changing - otherwise AppKit objects redraw everytime you set the value regardless of whether it changed or not. - for things like matrices/browsers I use a change count for the data they represent - only reload them if the data actually changed. These couple of simple things when adopted early on make inspectors and UI components blazingly fast. Depending on the complexity of the application, optimization may be some thing to consider from the start, spending 5 months on core functionality and then trying to optimize it later will give you more bugs and headaches than if you had started from the beginning with optimization in mind. la la la, -- :: Christopher Lloyd :: Yrrid Incorporated :: lloyd@world.std.com :: :: NEXTSTEP Special Forces ::

The job is a 1-year full-time contract position in the Packaging Graphics Department of a major bay area corporation. You must be an absolute expert in Adobe Illustrator and have a portfolio of work which reveals this expertise. You should also have a strong sense of balance and attention to detail present in your design work. These skills are simply taken for granted by our clients (The Marketing Department) and cannot be over emphasized! Packaging experience is certainly a plus but not required. I have set up a mixed platform computing environment of Macs and NextStep/Intel systems and would ideally like someone who can also program the NeXT. Specifically, I'll be developing an Artwork database which must be easy to use by the many computerphobes who must have access to the 1000+ artwork files which are currently nested 6 levels deep on various hard drives. The database must be able to load files from other applications on the system as well as receive data from the graphics programs used to create the artwork. This is a very challenging position and if all goes well, it would most likely be extended well beyond the initial one-year contract. This company really appreciates someone who can make themselves indispensible. The pace of the graphics work required is nothing short of hectic and doesn't easily allow for the time requred to set up, develop and maintain the computer network, however, the work environment is surprisingly relaxed and professional and I've never worked with a better group of people! If this sounds the the challenge you've been dreaming of, please email a cover letter and resume to me asap. Michael Rutchik ludwig@well.sf.ca.us

Judging by how large the piece I get is, it would take 9 pages to tile the whole image. Changing the scale in the PageLayout panel allows me to get to something that fits on a single page. Of course, the image is too small for what I am trying to do. I don't mind the tiling, in fact I expect it because the paper isn't big enough.

Is it so >much technobabble as it sounds or is there really something to it? OK, I'll give it a shot. They (Continental Cablevision and PSI) are going to give a wider audience the capability that most of us reading this already have -- the ability to "get something" out of the Internet. You can subscribe to PSI (Or UUNET, or ...) today and get mostly the same thing. Because of the high "technical literacy" (read: nerd count) in Eastern Massachusetts, particularly Cambridge, they are starting it there. That implies that it will still have a bit more than a Joe Beer Can interface, but I would be willing to bet they will try to "dumb it down", if for no other reason than it is unecessarily arcane as it is. "It" being the current method of accessing email, news, and ftp. Essentially, it is just a way to get connected that doesn't use the phone. See why the phone companies are hopping mad? That is why it takes a special modem -- you are not connected to the phone lines, but to TV cable. I have not read anything that discusses real details, such as "baud" rates or the equivalent. One guy in the Boston Globe today boasted about 10 megabits/second vs ISDN's slower rate. But even local Ethernets don't actually achieve 10mbits/sec in data transfer, so I don't think this will. It is not: 1. Putting TV on the Internet; 2. Putting the Internet "on TV". The price is quoted at $70-$100 per month. There has been nothing said about what that provides. But it doesn't sound like they are going after the low-volume user. They are going to let CompuServe, Prodigy, etc. go after the low end. I just wish I could send uncorrupted PostScript to people on CompuServe. It is hard to believe that a plain text file can be corrupted so readily. To me, that is the biggest barrier to all such systems, in that they don't work well when dealing with external entities. If the CableVision -- PSI thing could take customers away from CompuServe, I think most of the systems would smarten up and realize their barriers prevent increased profits, not protect them. --J Gregory

My business partner is the investment banker who put this deal together, and I have been waiting for weeks to be able to tell the story. Imagine *incoming* 10MBPS digital feeds for the entire Internet traffic, including your mail and all of the newsgroups, to any location in the US that's wired for cable TV. Stop. Close your eyes and think about it. Giddy yet? If your site is like mine, most of your traffic is inbound, not outbound. So you would receive over your cable system at high speed, and transmit outbound over the phones at whatever speed is appropriate for your volume. Of course, this does not help if you need to be directly connected to the net, for example as an FTP site. But how many sites need that? Not many, in the grand scheme of things. Think of how many individual users mostly want to read and occasionally need to write. They don't need a dedicated line or regular dialout times. And there's no need for them to run expensive additional phone lines to get access to the net. They can use a plain old modem with their regular phone number when they need to post an article or email message. Stop. Close your eyes and think about it again. Giddy yet? I wish Philadelphia was the test city. For THIS I would get cable. For THIS I might move to Boston. -- Gregory H.

DOS disks can (and do) have two kinds of labels at different positions: one in the boot sector, and one in the root directory. DOS normally uses the one in the root directory, but NS mounts it using the name in the boot sector (which is mostly not what you want, but it's at a constant location on the disk which simplifies the process). I've already suggested to NeXT that they should do something similar as the GNU tools do on 8.3 systems (at least on an Atari, haven't tried on DOS): They create a file named '.dir', which contains a translation table for all file names which do not fit the 'lower case 8.3' rule (it's a line-by-line format containing 'full' and 'cut' file names with an additional field telling whether it's ASCII or binary (nice for editors, but I don't know whether it is used by anything yet)). -Marcel

PSI and Continental Cablevision Announce Plans to Deliver Internet Over Cable TV San Francisco, CA, August 24, 1993 -- Today at INTEROP 93, Continental Cablevision, Inc. and Performance Systems International, Inc. (PSI), Herndon, VA announced their intention to bring the vast computer data services of the Internet to Continental's cable TV customers. "Our cable systems employ the highest quality fiber optic and broadband network components and are being expanded to support FDDI and Ethernet in our larger service areas," said David M. Fellows, senior vice president for engineering and technology at Continental, who led in developing the agreement with PSI. "Combining our bandwidth and our systems' technical strength with PSI's expertise and Internet market leadership, we will meet our customers growing needs in the complex world of computer communications," he added. The agreement provides several channels of cable TV bandwidth dedicated to PSI's Internet customers in several regions served by Continental. The initial system will be configured as a 100 Mbps Metropolitan Area Network with customer connections available at 10 Mbps, connected to PSI's nationwide widearea network, PSINet, and the global Internet. Follow on services will migrate to an ATM backbone with customer access at Ethernet, FDDI and ATM speeds. Services, to be marketed to both organizations and individuals, were designed by Martin L. Schoffstall, PSI's vice president and chief technical officer. "A variety of technologies are now available or will soon be announced which enable PSI to build a robust, high speed, ubiquitous system serving many hardware and software platforms on cable", Schoffstall said. "Our focus today is on 'standard' Internet access, but will soon lead to advanced applications such as multimedia conferencing and telecommuting." Poised for Expansion "The agreement between PSI and Continental was designed for use with virtually any metropolitan or rural cable TV operator, and would allow any cable TV company to join the Internet data communications community", said William L. Schrader, president and chief executive officer of PSI. "In addition to Continental, we have already held discussions with other operators who are also very interested. We expect in the near future to be announcing similar agreements with other operators to bring the power of the Internet to their customers." "The convergence of the Internet, the National Information Infrastructure and the massive bandwidth of America's cable TV systems, places this approach at a high priority," Fellows said. "This agreement adds critical new services to our extensive fiber optic system and will provide cable operators with access to PSI's nationwide distribution system." Deployment Schedule The initial cable TV-based Internet system will be deployed during late 1993, with services to be introduced in early 1994. Beginning in eastern Massachusetts, the system will be extended to other Continental service areas in the east and is planned to be completed by mid-year 1994. The system will consist of PSINet equipment located within Continental head-ends and some customer premises equipment. PSI will be pursuing agreements, initially, with about fifty cable operators and seeks to deploy its equipment throughout their facilities during 1994. "We have been approached by other cable operators and expect to talk to many more," said Schrader. This service will allow households and businesses with a computer and cable TV connection to access the entire suite of Internet data services. These include access to the Library of Congress, international bulletin boards, and unparalleled access to research quality information and data bases. The Internet, the largest data network in the world, now serves over 15 million people with sophisticated services, and connects over 25 million for electronic messages. Continental, the nations' third-largest cable TV company, operates cable TV systems serving 2.9 million customers in parts of California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, New Hampshire, New York, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Ohio, and Virginia. PSI is the nation's largest provider of commercial Internet access and internetworking services for organizations and individual users of electronic information. PSI's services range from electronic mail products to turnkey integration of local area networks into the PSINet widearea network system and the Internet. PSI operates the world's largest Frame Relay network, using T3 trunks and ATM switching, and delivering TCP/IP-based services to over 60 cities in the U.S., and about 3,500 organizations. PSI is a co-founder of the Commercial Internet Exchange (CIX) Association. #### All Brands, products and service names mentioned are trademarks or registered service marks of their respective owners.

Of course, your inside scoop clarifies this, but why one thing I dont understand, to allow downloading from ftp sites (for instance) they need to allow _some_ control information to flow up the link. at least enough to give the ftp site and pathname. I dont see how you can have only one way traffic be effective. so if it allows some outgoing traffic, why put any restrictions at all. of course, design the protocols, pricing structures etc expecting the great majority of the traffic to be into the home, not out. so what exactly are they proposing to build? -- Alex Blakemore alex@cs.umd.edu NeXT mail accepted -------------------------------------------------------------- "Without an engaged and motivated human being at the keyboard, the computer is just another dumb box."

I guess I'm braver... :-) All this as root, exiting the workspace with the exit login name between trials: 1) I took a nice lighthouse tiff from a Kodak Photo-CD and scaled it to 462x260 pixels with IconBuilder. Then: dwrite loginwindow ImageFile /LocalLibrary/Images/Tiffs/lighthouse.tiff 2) I didn't want the big login fields so after making a copy of: /usr/lib/NextStep/loginwindow.app/TextField.tiff and /usr/lib/NextStep/loginwindow.app/English.lproj/FieldNames.tiff I scaled them down to a 1x1 pixel tiff and saved them. I also played with painting them with transparent paint, but the scaling trick is much simpler. (I've never really figured out that alpha editting anyway!) I got rid of the TextField.tiff this way because I could not figure out a way to make one with smaller fields where I wanted them (see below). 3) Then there were the actual text fields in the nib: Once again, after copying /usr/lib/NextStep/loginwindow.app/login.nib I modified it with InterfaceBuilder. First I selected those fields and made the font smaller with the font panel. Then I resized their lengths (which also reduced their height since I'd changed the font size. I made mine about .5 inches long, arranged them closer together and moved them down to the lower left corner. I also played with the text fields color making mine dark gray with white text (the passwords text color is the same as the background so it's invisible). I'm not sure if I like the color of the fields yet, it will depend on your background tiff. 4) This leaves the Welcome to ... message which I left floating there and the buttons which appear as ghosts on my image.

Lo and behold, it's easier than I thought! However, on a related front, several people have mentioned the gdb script for discovering defaults, including loginwindow's, and I thought I'd pass on a curio I've discovered about that. Wanting (like mad) to get rid of the hostname that by default puts localhost atop the login panel (no cluttering of my art, please!), I thought: "Aha, I'll just set HostName to "" (null). No joy, friends. That hangs the login, time for bsd -s to fix it. But, next best thing, blank works: dwrite loginwindow HostHame " " As suspected, TimeToDim (default 1800 seconds == 30 minutes) is settable without difficulty. Of course, it's kind of a misnomer, since dimming isn't involved, as far as I can tell. Rather, it's the time until the neon NeXT logo replaces the login panel, which it does at no reduced brightness. Seems to me it would be nicer to get that guy to hop around quite a bit more often, too. Well, I liked the 3.0 way of doing this, dimming the screen and moving the login panel tiff around in Backspace sliding image fashion, with all sorts of dwrites that controlled this function (speed, time, etc.) I know you can't have everything, but I liked having something! -- [Jess Anderson <> Division of Information Technology, University of Wisconsin] [Internet: anderson@macc.wisc.edu {o"o} UUCP:{}!uwvax!macc.wisc.edu!anderson] [Room 3130 <> 1210 West Dayton Street / Madison WI 53706 <> Phone 608/262-5888] [---> Fidelity: A virtue peculiar to those who are about to be betrayed. <----]

Message-ID: <199202141505.AA28623@uther.cs.purdue.edu> Sender: mark@cbfsb.att.com (Mark Horton) Date: Mon, 17 Feb 1992 19:43:21 GMT If you call the ``Children's Make a Wish'' foundation, you will find that they are not soliciting any form of card for Craig Shergold or anyone else. Better yet, if you call the Guinness people (US publisher is "Facts on File" @ 212-683--2244 ext. 336), you can get this same story confirmed. You will also find that they will no longer endorse or support any effort to break this record. Many years ago, Craig Shergold had a brain tumor, believed inoperable. He sought to set the Guinness record for get-well cards. The call was well-publicized, and he did, indeed set the record (consult a recent edition of the book --- he has received in excess of 16 million cards to date; he officially set the record as of 17 Nov 1989). As part of this whole story, his plight caught the attention of John Kluge, the US billionaire, who paid for Craig to come to the US and receive specialized treatment. As a result, Craig has recovered completely from his tumor. He is also no longer seven, but well into his teens (you can see how out-of-date the request for cards is from this -- it's like circulating a letter encouraging people to vote for Carter for President). The problem is that the mimeographed sheets and letters seeking cards for Craig have continued to be circulated. As a result, cards continue to pour in to the post office for Royal Marsden Hospital in England. Worse, the appeal has mutated into various other versions, such as an appeal for business cards, one for postcards, and another version that appeals for holiday cards. The Shergold family has publicly appealed many times that people cease to mail them cards and letters, and that no more appeals be made on their behalf. One easily accessible way to verify this is with the article on page 24 of the 19 July 1990 NY Times. People Magazine wrote an article about it on June 1, 1991, page 63. Even Ann Landers has carried an item on this [6/23/91], but people still keep trying to send cards. Both Guinness and Royal Marsden have repeatedly issued press releases asking people to stop circulating requests for cards, as they are creating an undue burden on both the hospital and the postal service. The Guinness people have discontinued the category to prevent this kind of thing from ever happening again, and are doing their utmost to kill any further mailings. The Royal Marsden Hospital is at a loss what to do with the cards that continue to arrive --- most are being sold to stamp collectors and paper recyclers, and none go on to Craig. This appeal for Craig, as well as many urban legends, regularly appear on electronic bulletin boards around the world, and in many organizational newsletters and bulletins. It is both heartening and unfortunate that there are so many well-meaning people who continue to propagate these stories. It is too bad that so many people are unwilling to verify their information before passing such things along, especially when a simple phone call will suffice to do so. In this case, opening a recent copy of a book carried by nearly every library and bookstore would illuminate the situation. If you would still like to do something for a dying child, consider making a donation to a charity such as UNICEF or to the International Red Cross (Red Crescent, Red Magen David).

The technology is not a new idea--this just seems to be the first commercial offering. The idea is that you do have a two-way connection, of course. But it is asymmetric. The incoming traffic comes in the cable high-speed, and the outgoing traffic goes out your phone line at low speed. This is why you need a "special modem". Interfaces like this have been in use in test networks for a while now. The earlier comment was not that you couldn't do ftp, but that you wouldn't (feasibly) be able to set up an anon ftp site. That is, you wouldn't have a connection that was "live" all the time (unless you wanted to pay for a dedicated phone line and the charges associated with having the phone connected all the time), and you wouldn't want to have people downloading much from your machine anyway since the outbound files would be going at, say, 14Kbps. But you will be able to do both outbound and inbound ftp, just faster in one direction. Much faster. -- Prof. Jeff MacKie-Mason internet: jmm@umich.edu Dept. of Economics bitnet: usergc76@umichum Univ. of Michigan phone: 313-764-7438 Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1220 fax: 313-763-9181

I agree with the statement that by buying "inferior" products and by protecting "inferior" buisiness in your own country you help keep the people making those products stay in buisness IN THE SHORT RUN. However, it is more likely that the wrong signals will be sent to the companies making those products, thus causing stagnation. Ever asked yourself why Japan is so good at consumer products? For exactly the same reasons as why the U.S. has the primier military technology on the planet: Focus & Investment. If the U.S. government (including the D.O.D) had put the money they've invested in military technology into civilian technology, then the U.S. would have been way ahead and this would have been a non-issue. You can't have your cake and eat it too. I advocate buying the best product available at the price you want to pay for it regardless of where it comes from, because that way you stimulate progress in your own country too. Yes, structural change in the economy is painful but is necessary for evolution. You can still write your representative in parlament demanding a change of focus and investment. If enough people do then paranoia and militarism will subside and better civilian projects will emerge. >Laurent. -Mike -- Mike Henry INET : mihe@enea.se /// Box 232 /// S-183 23 Taby TEL : +46 8 792-2500 \\\/// SWEDEN TFX : +46 8 768-4388 \XX/

Using the Altech MIDIFace LX (for the Mac) seems to be impossible although the NeXT docs claims that any Mac-interface will do. We ve tried using different cables with no lock (someone mentioned that the cables very often caused the failure). However, utilizing the MTP_II does the trick, proving that the NeXT-MIDI-Driver and the connections we ve made are OK. So there should be no problem except that we don t want to buy a lot of MTP_IIs - they are to expensive, and we don t need the kind of power they offer in the first place - but would like to use a more economical solution instead. Does anybody know which of the many Mac-MIDI-interfaces will work with the NeXT?? Martin Knakkergaard Dept.of Music, Aalborg University

Date: 17 Feb 92 19:43:21 GMT Reply-To: spaf@cs.purdue.edu Organization: SERC, Department of Computer Sciences, Purdue Univ. If you call the ``Children's Make a Wish'' foundation, you will find that they are not soliciting any form of card for Craig Shergold or anyone else. Better yet, if you call the Guinness people (US publisher is "Facts on File" @ 212-683--2244 ext. 336), you can get this same story confirmed. You will also find that they will no longer endorse or support any effort to break this record. Many years ago, Craig Shergold had a brain tumor, believed inoperable. He sought to set the Guinness record for get-well cards. The call was well-publicized, and he did, indeed set the record (consult a recent edition of the book --- he has received in excess of 16 million cards to date; he officially set the record as of 17 Nov 1989). As part of this whole story, his plight caught the attention of John Kluge, the US billionaire, who paid for Craig to come to the US and receive specialized treatment. As a result, Craig has recovered completely from his tumor. He is also no longer seven, but well into his teens (you can see how out-of-date the request for cards is from this -- it's like circulating a letter encouraging people to vote for Carter for President). The problem is that the mimeographed sheets and letters seeking cards for Craig have continued to be circulated. As a result, cards continue to pour in to the post office for Royal Marsden Hospital in England. Worse, the appeal has mutated into various other versions, such as an appeal for business cards, one for postcards, and another version that appeals for holiday cards. The Shergold family has publicly appealed many times that people cease to mail them cards and letters, and that no more appeals be made on their behalf. One easily accessible way to verify this is with the article on page 24 of the 19 July 1990 NY Times. People Magazine wrote an article about it on June 1, 1991, page 63. Even Ann Landers has carried an item on this [6/23/91], but people still keep trying to send cards. Both Guinness and Royal Marsden have repeatedly issued press releases asking people to stop circulating requests for cards, as they are creating an undue burden on both the hospital and the postal service. The Guinness people have discontinued the category to prevent this kind of thing from ever happening again, and are doing their utmost to kill any further mailings. The Royal Marsden Hospital is at a loss what to do with the cards that continue to arrive --- most are being sold to stamp collectors and paper recyclers, and none go on to Craig. This appeal for Craig, as well as many urban legends, regularly appear on electronic bulletin boards around the world, and in many organizational newsletters and bulletins. It is both heartening and unfortunate that there are so many well-meaning people who continue to propagate these stories. It is too bad that so many people are unwilling to verify their information before passing such things along, especially when a simple phone call will suffice to do so. In this case, opening a recent copy of a book carried by nearly every library and bookstore would illuminate the situation. If you would still like to do something for a dying child, consider making a donation to a charity such as UNICEF or to the International Red Cross (Red Crescent, Red Magen David).

The potentially evil thing about this is that all the traffic is being broadcast to everyone, once data is being transmitted on the cable tv line, anyone can pick it up.

Before anybody starts checking their "wired page" count and flipping out, this isn't my experience at all. Pages wired down: 328. Is what I get just after rebooting and opening a terminal. Of course, some of that is due to the number of buffers 3.1 automatically allocates for me, so if you have less memory, you won't have as much memory wired down. NONE of this memory has anything to do with applications. No application can even request to wire a page in memory! After starting another six applications: Pages wired down: 340. "But you said applications can wire down memory!". True. Kernel-level code and device drivers can, though. Since one of the applications I launced was CDPlayer, it loaded a new file system, which wired down memory. The same thing happens if you insert a DOS disk, or a CD-ROM. I just inserted one of the latter, and boom: Pages wired down: 348. ... due to loading a new filesystem. Proof? From a terminal as root, I type "kl_util -u CDROM" to unload the filesystem (after ejecting the disk!) and: Pages wired down: 340. Unloading this stuff won't occur normally, it just isn't loaded at startup time for efficiency's sake, but they stay around after dynamically loading unless you explicitly get rid of them. I am aware of NO wired memory leaks that force you to reboot your system occasionally (other memory leaks are another matter :-) ). Wired memory will go up as more servers are loaded but will reach an equilibrium and stop. All you're doing by rebooting is forcing them to all dynamically reload again and slowing the system down! -- Blake W.

Would you elaborate on this for us? Only 20% of all cable TV households are on systems that provide feedback from individual households, using encoded keys in the converter boxes. Unless the cable network itself is two-way, inbound is the only feed you can get through the cable system. As someone else wrote, think asynchronously about this problem. The technology is not all built, so I don't know the implementation details. And of course there are issues about receiving mail and other presumably private communications over a system that could be hacked by anyone with the coin for a network sniffer. (Yes, that can happen now on Internet communications, but few people have the resources and desire. This raises the secondary issue of how the character of the Internet will change as more and more people gain access to it.) My comment about ftp was that you could not be an anon site this way, although I assume you will be able to place requests. Again, unknown. There's also the issue of whether you need to dedicate a continuously operating computer to catch the feed, or whether supplied equipment will do that for you. Knight Ridder delivers its stock/bond market information services through a satellite broadcast, and a lot of the same issues apply. Time will tell, but the die is cast. -- Gregory H.

Okay, here's my suggestion (and those who know better please steer me!) Gestel Italia's solidThinking Modeler can import DXF files. i'll have to review the lit again, but i think it can save out as RIB files. I think Frontface and Intuitv'3D will do this too. I'll check. I've only been able to screw around with the demo packages (oh, man, do we have nice software for this platform!)

The article indicated that one would be able to access the internet by connecting to their cable company cables and get up to 10Mbits/second bandwidth. Now exactly how this connection is accomplished (probably it doesn't connect to your thin coax connector) and how much of this bandwidth is for data and how much for overhead and commercials or whether they would provide mail spooling or if you would have a permanant ip address was not discussed. It is a good start though, however it is implemented. I look forward to the day that I can connect my NeXT to my Austin CableVision cable and get a "real" net connection. On a side note, I noticed that here in Texas (at least) the telephone company has won the right in court to broadcast programming over telephone lines. This is another good first step toward getting real bandwidth right into my home. Which ever way it comes, I already have the check written. -- ==================================== Alex Currier mycroft@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu Multiple Architecture NeXTSTEP User NeXTmail preferred! ====================================

Maybe you didn't get the point of my question... I am familiar with the services offered on the internet (obviously I can post to usenet and send mail and I also know about gopher, wais, ftp, irc, and most of the other goodies). My point was do you really get all of this or do you get "limited" services as determined by the cable provider and how is the connection implemented? Do I get everything like I get it now via SLIP or is it like being physically attached via ethernet or is it character based only or must you use some proprietary front end like America Online?

Some thoughts... most things you do on the net require outbound information to initiate the event, to begin and end the inflow of information, to provide the remote machine with information about the local machine, continuing requests, changes in status, acknowlegements, etc. Basically a two way communication is essential. What happens when all these people want to use it simultaneously? How many "special modems" will be available at the cable company end to receive the incoming data from customers?

Date: Thu, 26 Aug 1993 19:15:04 GMT Punishing a person masquerading as a seven year old Craig Shergold was seven years old, suffering from terminal cancer. It was his ambition to be included in the Guiness Book of Records for the largest number of business cards ever collected by one person. Craig was grateful because folks like you sent your business cards to the address below as well as sending his request to as many other companies as you can. Craig Shergold c/o Children's Make a Wish Foundation 32 Perimeter Centre East Atlanta Georgia USA 30346 Obviously, Craig got what he wanted. As a matter of fact, Craig was the primary cause of a large Postal Incinerator being installed in his local Post Office. An entire fleet of mail vehicles was responsible for delivering the gigantic boxes of business cards that arrived daily. Welsh postal workers would make deliveries well into the night. The piles of unopened boxes grew in his parents yard, until neighbors finally sought action and had the house condemned as a combination fire hazard and potential mold breeding ground (wet paper is a great place for mold to grow). Craig has reportedly recovered from his terminal illness, and now runs a recycling business with a Tele-marketing offshoot. All those names and addresses that he gets... it's like money in the bank. Rumors abound as to his selling lists of names and addresses to various companies that in return resale the information to those same folks that call you late at night to know if you want to purchase a subscription, or give to their religious organization, or send money to save the rocks, or something else as equally important and time consuming. Not only that, but Craig's past plight has caused many people to spread the faith, much as a religious story... hundreds of years from now, it will be a legend on how business cards cured Brain Tumors in the late 20th Century. No, really, these things get out of control.If we don't stop this now, it may become a custom to just send boxes of business cards off to folks, as a gesture of kindness. Wales, in response to increased political pressure from the Postal Workers Veterans groups, has declared it an act of war to send Craig your business card. Please, don't send anything to Craig, or we may see the imminent commencement of hostilities... and I personally have nothing against Welshmen or Welshwomen (or their cats or dogs or sheep or ferrets or whatever). If you are just dying to send something somewhere, keep the business cards where they belong. Instead, send me a company coffee mug. No, I don't have a terminal illness... but I like coffee mugs. And, if I get too many, there will be a lot of homeless folks in San Diego who can have unmatched coffee mug sets .... "Let them drink from Coffee Mugs!" or something like that... So, the message is clear : People are freaking out about this post i made yesterday. Keep your business cards. Don't make war with Welshfolk. ;-) Sean Church schurch@pages.com (My bust, my company is laughing at me so hard right now, I shall never be kind again, I am going to be evil...)

My advice is... think at least twice before buying an HP drive. I found out the hard way (trying to get my drive repaired) that HP does not warranty the drive to the end-user but only to the distributor. The distributor didn't want to repair the drive since my vendor (Tecor) is now out of business. Eventually, HP took over a month to replace my drive with "expedited" service and only did so begrudgingly. HP refused to deal with me directly but required me to deal with their distributor (middle-man) to have the distributor have HP repair the drive. Furthermore, HP personnel were duplicitous, unreliable, and unprofessional to deal with. They never did ship me a new drive as they promised (instead they shipped a low serial number refurbished drive, I believe). This service nightmare was very recent ("ended" July 29, 1993). Needless to say, I would not buy an HP again without carefully exploring the so-called "HP" warranty. I hope my current HP equipment never requires service again. If anyone would like a copy of the letter I sent to Lew Platt, President of HP, outlining the problems HP has with their customer service, I can forward a copy. Mr. Lew Platt didn't care to reply though I requested he do so. Also, the HP "reply" from Mr. Bruce Spenner, General Manager of Disk Memory Division at HP, did not address the full issues I raised in my carefully prepared letter. Instead, the General Manager's short, cursory letter concluded: If you should have any additional questions regarding our warranty policy, please contact Eric Abrahms [mis-spelled!] ([xxx/xxx-xxxx]), located in the corporate office of our authorized distributor, Arrow Electronics, Inc.; Commercial Systems Group. Even dealing with customer service issues explicitly, my experience is HP stonewalls and isolates itself from the customer. For a premium, mission-critical piece of equipment, a $3,785.00 hard drive at time of purchase, I expected much more reasonable service. If you do choose to go with HP, try to get a copy of "your" 5 year "HP" warranty first and see what, if anything, you get! Then ask what the advertised "5 year" warranty means if it doesn't extend to you! :-) :-) :-) My bottom-line advice is: caveat emptor! (By the way, the DEC drives looked pretty nice to me as I was preparing to buy a replacement drive since HP missed its third return deadline. However, I suppose you should check DEC's warranty too. I never got that far before discovering HP had lied to me about a "shortage" of C3010 drives.) Cheers, = Joe = p.s., technologically the HP drives seem fine (though my original drive did fail). My foremost gripe would be the noise of the drives, especially when seeking. The DEC drives are supposedly relatively quiet.

Even in monochrome, the images are pretty nice. I tried to mount them in a fairly simple but appropriate way. Available by anonymous ftp from yak.macc.wisc.edu [144.92.30.18], directory pub/next/images/logintiffs/3.1, files butterflies.tar and butterflies.README. Quite a few of the earlier tiffs in my collection were not LWZ compressed. I fixed that while I was at it, resulting in smaller files; they don't compress further with compress, which is why the collections are tar files, not tar.Z. Also, for those who've fetched artworks.tar, I've added a to me irresistible image, a photo by Robert Mapplethorpe, to that archive. Despite being a monochrome version of a picture in stunning color, it came out pretty well. It's my current favorite of the entire lot.

The actual PostScript code to do this could be quite complex, taking into account the ``screen'', or simple, merely defining a secondary ``show'' operator which accepts a string and a position, does the first show, a grestore, an rmove (of, say -.33 .33 (point), and another show. This is meant as a direction, not a complete solution. A second way is to set a linewidth and both stroke and fill the type-set strings. Neither of these will give you a true boldface, just as an ``Oblique'' font is not necessarily an ``Italic''. Bruce Gingery bruce@TotSysSoft.com NeXT-Mail preferred, MIME-Mail ok

It does go up as I launch apps, but I have never seen it go down by any appriciable amount -- even logging out, exiting the window server, and going into the raw console doesn't lower it by more than about 20 pages, max. (usually less under 2.1, I haven't checked it under 3.x yet). On the other hand, after doing that, and restarting the window server, no more memory is wired. So this implies three things: 1. The kernel wires memory for its use, 2. It does not release it back to the general pool afterwards in all cases, 3. It does keep track of it for it's own re-use. Either that, or there's a lot more kernel utilities than just (34) % kl_util -s SERVER: slip Loaded SERVER: audio Loaded By rebooting, I am doing two things: 1. Forcing these servers/memory use to be re-allocated. This does slow things down a little. 2. Freeing an extra meg of memory for my applications. This has a big affect on the speed of services, and Improv's Presentation Builder (which is inherently a two application deal, and so, slow on an 8 meg machine. Yes, just changing an active app does paging, but under normal circumstances, thats all the paging I do on my machine. 8 megs does work on 680x0.) I don't know where the leak is. I do know that it is there. Here's an idea: why don't some other people start taking measurements of their wired down amounts, and see what it does over time. -- Michael Gersten michael@stb.info.com NeXT Registered Developer (NeRD) # 3860 -- Hire me!

You need a way to emulate the power-on switch on the keyboard, but this can be done with a simple push-button switch and a db-15 connector.

Otherwise, it is simple to get either a slab or cube to run without a console, at the rom monitor, under "p", say yes to serial "A" as alternate console, and in /etc/ttys, uncomment the commented out console line, and comment out the uncommented one.

If you set the SCSI ID of the CD-ROM drive to zero and start the machine with the CD inserted it will boot from the CD and present you with the option to build a 3.0 hard disk. It will be a complete rebuild though, not an upgrade. If you do the <control><control><`> trick right after "Testing System" to boot in verbose mode it will also give you the same option. It is possible to boot the CD in single user mode by entering b -s at the NeXT> prompt in the ROM Monitor. Of course there will be some things you cannot do since your root device is write protected (but if you are familiar with boot options you could specify /tmp and swap directories on some other, writable volume). -- ==================================== Alex Currier mycroft@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu Multiple Architecture NeXTSTEP User NeXTmail preferred! ====================================

You can get my MacFont program from ibis.cs.umass.edu:/pub/norm/mac-font-tools or from ftp.shsu.edu:/tex-archive/font/utilities/macfont. A summary follows: README for MacFont 1.1 20 Aug 1993 MacFont converts Macintosh Type 1 fonts into standard ASCII format. In order to use MacFont, you must transfer the `resource forks' of the Macintosh font onto your PC or workstation. This can generally be accomplished by archiving the font on the Macintosh and extracting the archive with `macunpack' or a similar non-Mac tool on your workstation. MacFont creates PFA files from the `POST' resource and AFM files from the FOND resource(s). It can also create BDF files from the NFNT resource(s). The AFM and BDF files will be named appropriately based upon the font name extracted from the FOND resource. If your file system cannot create long names, use the `-s' option to name the AFM files sequentially and the BDF files with short names. The PFA file name must be specified with the -p option. Note: the FontName, FontFullName, and FamilyName in the AFM file may not match the corresponding lines in the PFA file. You should edit one or the other to make them the same.

Note that "artificial emboldening" is gross, sick, and should be avoided if at all possible :-) The fonts the Mac produces aren't "true" boldface either, but rely on the same offset printing hack.

You should be able to go to the bookstore and Just Order. Yes, our university bookstore here has an account with NASCORP but ...... "THEY CAN SELL IN WHATEVER PRICE THEY WANT ". That's the answer that I got after talking to the person who in charge of ordering softwares for the store. The price that he told me is $275 which is ~ $25 more than quoted above. Does this mean that there is no control of the student's retail price or it is the store's way of making more profit ? In order to get a special price on the software, some schools require that the person must be a student there. If you know of any place that doesn't have this requirement, please let me know.

I'd like to hear from anybody running NSI on an "August-or-later" GATEWAY 2000 DX2-66V. I'm considering a GATEWAY 2000 DX2-66V to run NSI. However, the latest HW Compatibility Guide I've seen (Aug 10) lists this machine with an ATI Ultra Graphics Pro card, which now has been changed ("August-or-later") to an ATI Ultra XLR (still 68800) card. NeXT tech support wasn't sure if the 68800 driver would crank the XLR, but said an ATI graphics "update" to the Guide was due out the end of the month. GATEWAY said (paraphrased) "You want to run next-WHAT??" (They're in the Guide...go figure...?) I also understand the CD-ROM drive *MUST* be connected to a SCSI card

One of the things that most concerns me is that I didn't start hitting this problem until about a month after I upgraded, during which time I don't think I've changed my routine operations. Yet something obviously *is* different. So far, I can't fathom what, unless it's that I now have ethernet connectivity (rather than modem) between the two machines. Both are 040 cubes. But I don't think that addresses my point in any useful way. It did not happen with 2.0, 2.1, or 3.0; it happens with 3.1. If you look at the 3.1 release notes, you'll find several other *extremely* odd things about this version. I just can't see why a maintenance release has not been made. For one thing, it's not like there were a lot of customers, a few tens of thousands at most. >Funny thing happened the other day. I RAN OUT OF >PROCESSES!!! What was running? Just Preferences, Terminal, >Edit, Preview, Backspace, NXFaxMonitor, kermit and a few >terminal shells. Not than many processes IMHO. At login time, I start four Stuart windows, two browsers, Preferences, AltDock, Backspace, and nothing else. In one of the Stuart windows, I am usually running a telnet to a remote machine. All this so far at home. At the office, there's one more Stuart window, running a second telnet to a different machine. I run out of processes often at home, I never have at the office. The hardware differences are that I have a CD-ROM drive and a scanner at home, no such peripherals at the office. But what I think is the culprit, maybe, is that at home, I often NFS mount my home directory of the office machine, moving things back and forth by drag-and-drop on the browsers, rather than the more cumbersome ftp method. One other difference is that at home I run a lot of shell scripts that run other shell scripts, inside of which awk scripts write awk scripts then run them, and so forth. It's really routine, fairly simple-minded stuff, and this process business is a large pain you know where. -- [Jess Anderson <> Division of Information Technology, University of Wisconsin] [Internet: anderson@macc.wisc.edu {o"o} UUCP:{}!uwvax!macc.wisc.edu!anderson] [Room 3130 <> 1210 West Dayton Street / Madison WI 53706 <> Phone 608/262-5888] [---> I was not born to be forced.

I'm not sure if this fits your case or not, but I reported a "Running Out of Processes" bug to NeXT when I discovered it occurred repeatably for me after multiple drags of files (maybe 30 or 40) from Mail or Newsgrazer. I was told it's a problem with the Workspace leaking processes allotted to each user. You'll need to workaround it by logging out and in again, but they do say it's been fixed for 3.2. Hope this helps. -- ___________________________________ Dylan Kohler Angst Animation Post Production dylan@angst.com (NeXTmail welcome)

This may seem like an intractable problem, since by the time you run out you have no way to start a new "ps" process, but there's a trick you can do. First off, always keep a terminal window around. Then when you run out of processes use the command: exec /bin/ps -ax and watch closely; ps will do its stuff but when it quits the window will go away. You can use Control-S to stop the output in the middle which should be sufficient to see whether what the cause is. It may be possible to set some sort of option in Terminal or Stuart so that it doesn't go away when ps dies, but it shouldn't be necessary. Feel free to play with the exec command right now, but just be aware that after the command is executed, your shell and the window that contains it are history. On a separate note, if you're new to playing around with Terminal and typing commands, try this sequence: mkdir play cd play touch foo chmod 0 foo more foo >& bar mv -f bar foo Now try to see what's in the file "foo" with the cat command or the more command (i.e. "cat foo" or "more foo"). Even though at the end of the sequence the permissions will ostensibly allow to see the contents of the file "foo" neither cat nor more will be as helpful as you might think. Don't worry. There's no need to call the system administrator to get rid of this mystery file. You can just delete it with "rm". I hope someone is amused by the above sequence. It's a little more complicated than typing "gotta light?" to the csh and some people don't find the behaviour as curious as others do, but when you're tired... --Cliff ctm@ardi.com

Not exactly a solution to your problem. But I thought you would be interested in this too: We are selling a product called Screen Machine II for NEXTSTEP. It is a high quality video framegrabber board for NEXTSTEP PCs, which allows you to capture video frames from any video source, like VCRs, video cameras or still video. Screen Machine can also capture small video sequences and comes with software for playback. It doesn't include video out though.

I never run Newsgrazer, I only very rarely run Mail.app (just to send a binary to someone now and then). I suppose Backspace (NeXT supplied it, remember, as of 3.1) or AltDock could be the problem, though after all, I did run those applications under 3.0 with absolutely no problem, and it's *this* change that is at issue, not what *I* do.

Now they're found: Don't throw out your 2.1 shared libraries in /2.1 from your 3.0 machine. Keep Icon.app (which presumably you've already patched to run under 3.0). Now, all you have to do to run it is *seriously* compromise the security of your machine and you'll be all set: In Preferences, open the Unix Preferences window (the one with the diploma icon) and check the check box "Public Window Server". You'll get a warning panel reminding you what you're doing. Go for it. Now it will work. If you're in standalone mode, the security thing is no problem. If you're normally on a network, you should get off it while you're in this configuration. While we're on this subject, somebody check me out on the licensing aspect of Icon.app? I think you have to have a 2.1 license to be legal for Icon.app. Is that right? If you you joined the band at 3.0, this would not include you.

This is useful information about NewsBase, but unfortunately, it didn't answer the question asked. Harry Wan is looking for an already compiled newsreader. I'd guess it's because he has only the User release of NS/Intel. Harry Wan (and anyone else out there without the compiler programs), I highly suggest you look into getting the full NS release since there is a lot to be had on the net for free, but unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of it is C source code. Without a compiler, you're limiting your options to whatever someone else feels like doing for you. I would compile the app for you, but I cannot make NS/Intel binaries. In the meantime, if you have a non-NS partition on your machine I suggest getting one of the free newsreaders for that OS. Perhaps someone could toss a compiled version on the archives for those without the full NS release? If you have access to a Unix machine elsewhere, I suggest compiling nn or trn. I think nn is a great newsreader, quite quick and now there's a version that uses a growing header database standard (instead of using it's own unique header database). NFS mounting the database is easy to do with nn and the interface is quite good for a CLI app.

Hope you can help. Kerry Guise His description of the problem : Date: Wed, 1 Sep 93 17:16 +1200 From: DENIS@waikato.ac.nz I'm involved in a project concerning tuning method(s) used by a cappella singers, and would find it useful to be able to make recordings of several musical passages sung very precisely by male voices. Our attempt to use our own voices and adjust the frequencies by means of a program on the NeXT have not been encouraging, and I am pursuing an alternate path, typing the music into the NeXT using Scorefile language. I will play these musical passages using various sounds, and have learned of "voice" instruments that have been included in the Ensemble package. There are three voices singing five different vowel sounds, and these probably would make very listenable recordings for us. Unfortunately, after reading everything that seemed promising, I still have no idea how to make "BO" really sound like a bass voice singing the "oh" vowel sound. I'm sure it requires that I use the correct waveform, amplitude, frequency, and modulation envelopes, attack and release times, but I haven't been able to find out how these envelopes are shaped. I have found an example specification of a soprano voice in the paper by Jaffe entitled "From the Classical Software Synthesis Note-List to the NeXT Scorefile". This specification refers to waveform, frequency, and amplitude envelopes for which the specifications are not included (at least not where I've been able to find them). It's possible that the appropriate envelope descriptions are packaged somewhere near the timbres, and I haven't phrased my specifications carefully enough to get the correct result. Perhaps I simply haven't found that "most important" document that will tell me what I need to know or give me examples of envelopes that I need. I would appreciate any reply that would push me in the right direction.

I suspect you followed the second half of the advice while missing the first half. In your spare window, type the following two lines: csh exec /bin/ps axuww you could use "sh", "bash", "tsch", or whatever other shell you have around instead of "csh", of course. The key is to start up that extra shell before you type in the exec command. Note that you can't type the exec command in twice in a row, as the first one will kill the extra "csh" process and the second exec will kill the shell that's keeping your Stuart window open.

The problem might be dust. Two suggestions: (1) Try putting the OD into another drive (assuming you've got another system available). Sometimes a disk can read on another system. If this works, snarf your data off it pronto, then... (2) Try cleaning the disk. Open the door a blast it with some high pressure air. DO NOT blow on the disk or touch it with your fingers. If you don't have an air hose handy, you might try checking out a photo shop (or lab). Quite often they have cans of air for cleaning optics. Good luck!

Most of it is text data, so any >CRC errors would be negligible. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- First off: I would like to give a big, hearty THANK YOU to everyone that responded. I should have stated in my original post that the drive was recently replaced (I am not sure how new it was, though), I had tried the disk on another cube, and I had successfully loaded other disks on my drive. The suggestion that worked like a charm was: % fsck -b 16 /dev/od0a After two passes the disk was running like new. What do these (-b 16) options/paramaters do that the default command will not? Once again THANKS! The net IS a wonderful place. Here are the responses, (slightly edited): ------------------- From: Sam_Streeper@NeXT.COM (Sam Streeper) The problem probably is that the OD drive has accumulated too much dust; that drive won't be able to fix the disk without an overhaul. I would guess it just needs cleaning and a new filter. I've never done such an overhaul myself and I can't recommend where you might take it, but these drives are notorious dust suckers. ------------------- From: Andreas Windemuth <windemut@cumbne.bioc.columbia.edu> Try cleaning the drive, the optical head might be dusty. There exist cleaning disks, but I don't know where to get them. After cleaning, use fsck -b 16 for replacing a damaged super-block. ------------------- From: isbell@cats.ucsc.edu >From NeXTanswers: read recover failed optical disk bad block hardware uncorrectable ecc error Q: I cannot read or boot my optical disk anymore. In the console I see a series of READ RECOVER messages followed by a READ FAILED message. Q: I have a bad spot on my optical disk. I tried rewriting over it, then tried erasing the whole disk, but I get an I/O error always at the same spot. Is there a way to mark the bad spot? A: A sudden power off or interrupt can cause the erasure of a half track on the OD. One of the symptoms is a series of READ RECOVER messages followed by a READ FAILED message. It might look like: od0a: read recover (ECC) block 160120 phys block 161992 (14273:0:8) This means that the read was to logical block 160120, physical block 161992, track 14273 of drive 0, at sector 8. The only way to recover is to rewrite the sector, which may or may not be difficult, depending on which file (if any) the sector is located in. Try this procedure. Fixing an optical with "Uncorrectable ECC" errors 1. Go to a machine which is not booted off of optical 2. Insert the optical. 3. Become root 4. Attempt to fsck the a partition of the disk. 5. Carefully record the physical address of the bad block 6. Run the disk program on the device /dev/rod0a 7. Run the command "abort" in disk to turn of abort on error 8. Run the "read" command on the physical sector a. enter the physical block number b. enter 1 for the number of sectors per transfer c. enter 8 for the number of transfers d. enter 1 for the sector increment e. record the number of bad sectors 9. Run the "write" command on the physical sector a. enter the physical block number for starting block b. enter 1 for the number of sectors per transfer c. enter the number of bad sectors from step "e" above for the number of sectors to transfer d. enter 1 for the sector increment e. enter 0 for the random data 10. Repeat step 8 above; you should receive no error 11. Rerun fsck on the a partition a. it may be necessary to run with an alternate super-block b. use -b 16 for this case (additional backups are in NextAnswers, os.293) c. repeat fsck until no errors occur 12. Mount and examine the file system to confirm that it is still intact Note also the 2.0 disk command for repairing bad ODs. QA185 Valid for 1.0 Valid for 2.0 ------------------- From: nico@imani.cam.org (Nicolas Dore) This might be simplistic, but it works for me... Whenever one of my ODs refuses to mount from the worspace, I just log out, type console at login, end up with a command-line interface, and voila! I have (almost) always been able to manually mount the disks, using "mount /dev/od0a" etc... It won't work if the disk is really dead, but always has when I was getting "Eject, Repair, Initialize" mesages. Weird but true. Hope this helps. If not, good luck. ------------------- From: Dick Silbar <silbar@cantina.lanl.gov> Did you try the simple thing of cleaning the drive? ------------------- From: Geoff Kuenning <geoff@prodnet.la.locus.com> What sort of problems did fsck find? Did he attempt to repair any of them? It depends on several things, particularly on whether the errors are hardware (e.g., CRC) or software. In either case, there are some things that can be done. The most important, though, is to first prevent further damage. If the errors are not hardware errors, you can use "dd" to make a backup copy of the current state of the disk; the only catch is that you will either need 256M of scratch disk, a backup tape, or a lot of patience. The first two backups can be made with one of the commands: dd if=/dev/rod0a of=/somewhere/backup_file bs=128b dd if=/dev/rod0a of=/dev/tape-device bs=128b (the "128" should really be replaced by the cylinder size of the OD, which I don't have handy right now. I think you can pull it out of /etc/fstab.) When you type this command (you'll probably need to be root), a window will pop up asking you to insert your OD. Don't insert it before that point. After the command completes, you'll have to type: disk -e /dev/rod0a to eject the disk. If you don't have lots of disk space, a backup is a bit trickier but still possible. The basic idea is to do: dd if=/dev/rod0a of=/tmp/odbackup skip=XXX bs=128b count=YYY disk -e /dev/rod0a dd if=/tmp/odbackup of=/dev/rod0a seek=XXX bs=128b count=YYY disk -e /dev/rod0a repeatedly. The first two commands are done with your (write-protected) damaged disk, while the last two are done with a scratch disk that will contain the backup. YYY should be selected so that 512*128*YYY is close to the free space (in bytes) in your temp filesystem. XXX starts out at zero, then becomes YYY, 2*YYY, 3*YYY, etc., in sequence. You should free up as much space as possible first, to minimize disk swapping. If your problems are hardware-related, of course, none of this will help. Instead, you should first try several other cubes to see if their optical drive will read what yours won't. If that doesn't work, or after you back up the original, I *might* have some software that will help recover at least part of your files, though it would be painful. However, I'm moving this weekend, so I'm not going to be very available very soon. You'd be better off going with another approach if you're in a hurry. Otherwise, contact me again late next week, and I'll see if I can do anything for you. ------------------- From: bbeckwit@carrock.hw.stratus.com (Bob Beckwith) The problem might be dust. Two suggestions: (1) Try putting the OD into another drive (assuming you've got another system available). Sometimes a disk can read on another system. If this works, snarf your data off it pronto, then... (2) Try cleaning the disk. Open the door a blast it with some high pressure air. DO NOT blow on the disk or touch it with your fingers. If you don't have an air hose handy, you might try checking out a photo shop (or lab). Quite often they have cans of air for cleaning optics. -------------------

I apologize. When I saw Jess's problem I wanted to point out the use of exec /bin/ps to look for processes, then, partially due to sleep deprivation, I started rambling. I used to teach C and UNIX short courses and the particular sequence of "touch, chmod, move ..." would really amuse some of the class. However, I'd only introduce it if my audience looked like they'd appreciate it. I actually know someone who almost got thrown out of school for creating such a file. The system administrator that found it was *FURIOUS* that he couldn't look at the file, even when he was root. Then when he found out what had happened was very embarrassed. Of course stuff like this doesn't work well on GUI systems, but back then almost all UNIXs were terminal based. --Cliff ctm@ardi.com

There's an another problem you'll run into when trying to run the machines as print servers is that the window server needs to be running to use a NeXT printer (that's where the postscript interpretation happens for both the screen and the printer). it's not entirely clear to me that the window server ever gets started up if you run the machine without a monitor (or at least without something that looks to the monitor port like a monitor...not sure what that'd be but you get the idea), and without that sserver you won't be able to print to a next printer. -- dan pritts consultant/system administrator dan.pritts@umich.edu um itd/css unix support group

I for one am sure - I have it working under 2.1 Workspace (as well as 3.0), without TickleServices anywhere near my machine. Very mysterious. I don't have a 3.0 or 2.1 machine here, but 'Edit LaunchPaths' appears nowhere in any of the 3.1 files. Are you quite certain that TickleServices is not on your machines ?

To prove to yourself that one can indeed exceed the number of processes allotted to each user (there can be an arbitrarily large number of processes running systemwide), try the following. 1. Copy many files from Newsgrazer, by dragging. I do this to my home directory, which is NFS mounted, but I'm not sure that's pertinent. 2. It takes you more than 50 files, but you'll eventually be stopped by either running out of processes, or by a Workspace Alert panel informing you of an internal error 10000000. This is a bug NeXT has confirmed exists in Workspace.app and will be corrected in 3.2. No disparagement, I hope. Just the unvarnished facts.

In fact, the whole Services->Workspace submenu is from TickleServices and not from Workspace itself. However, you don't have to have TickleServices for the dwrite I originally described to work, because the LaunchPaths default is a feature of Workspace, not of TickleServices. Thanx, Michael P.S.

Those of you who experience it often should try using the command line to move files. As far as I can find out, this Workspace thread leak is fixed in 3.2.

As far as I know all the GNU stuff that NeXT uses (especially gcc and emacs) are under the GNU Public License and as such can be copied incl. source code and NeXT's changes by anyone. So all those with access to only the user version of NEXTSTEP are technically allowed to get this stuff. Also at least some of the man pages should be availlable this way. Why doesn't NeXT include the GNU part of the developer's version into the user version? You would not have to pay royalities, and anyone (including those without even a NS user license) is allowed to get it. Maybe you could even sell some more NEXTSTEP user versions, since you can say that your compiler is included. Anyone knows that he pays much for the Interface Builder etc, and I'm not saying that you should include this one into the user version. Bye, Uli

I have disabled and unplugged the 5 1/4" floppy, and made the 3 1/2" drive A: When the boot starts, I get the boot: prompt, and I hit <return>. The Mach kernel loads, and starts. A few lines are displayed, and the machine reboots almost immediately. After slowing everything down as much as possible, I still can't read what is on the display. I have used various other OS's, including DOS (yuck), MS windows, 386BSD and Linux. Nothing else has had any problems. I've experimented with almost every possible configuration and combination of jumber settings. I tried booting with "config=Default", but this resulted in lots of messages about other Default config files not being found. After pressing a key, the machine reboots again. A call to Northgate Tech Support resulted in the response "What do you want to run???". It seems they only know DOS. 32MB ram is on the way, and I may be upgrading the video card, but I want to know if it is worth continuing trying to get NS/IP running. I'd really like to see it going on this machine. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. -- Theodore S.

Yup. I suffer from the same affliction. More exactly, I suffer from crashing problem whenever--and almost exclusively whenever--I touch the serial ports in NS/FIP. If you think kermit is bad, try putting a getty on one of the ports. You lose. If you're just having the problem sometime, feel lucky.

NeXT never claimed that. Or at least not since the 040 came out (for the 030 it may have been true.) Only a very SMALL number of Mac-style interfaces will work.

I posted this message in the beginning of JULY. I subsequently received about 20 letters saying different things, most of which came down to "please be patient, a patch will be released mid-July." I in fact received these words from TWO SEPERATE people sending from next.com. It is now SEPTEMBER, I have been VERY PATIENT, I have controlled my anger and frustration and not given up on NS even if one of the primary things I need it for is to run SLIP and use a modem to connect to a company system from home. But it is now nearly 2 months after the promised fix date. I keep hearing that the drivers have been fixed and are now being tested. I put forth that NOTHING can possibly be worse than the drivers that exist right now, and I am getting very, VERY tired of being told that they are COMING REAL SOON NOW. I specifically purchased a Dell JAWS machine to evaluate NS after being told that NS Intel was primarily developed on the JAWS system because I wanted to be assured the maximum stability possible. This seems to have been a waste of time and money. NeXT, new serial port drivers are HIGHLY OVERDUE... Sincerely, Tired of the run-around

Well, I've done some more investigating, so I'll make some disparaging remarks. :~) In my investigating, I seem to have reached the conclusion that doing anything in Workspace Manager that results in background tasks being spawned, is a sufficient condition to bring your black NS 3.1 system closer to the wall. If you keep doing things that cause background tasks (e.g. compressing or uncompressing files & directories, copying things to floppy disks [or anywhere else? I haven't specifically tested this yet, but another poster said dragging attachments out of Mail.app will produce the bug.]), you will eventually have an unusable system. If you're lucky enough to have an already-opened shell window, you can attempt to execute a UNIX command and you'll get the "no more processes" error message. This doesn't mean that there are too many processes running at this point, since there aren't. It is a bug with Workspace Manager, near as I can tell, that's hammering the process table somehow. I, too, was skeptical of this whole "out of processes" thread, at first. Then I upgraded a slab to NS 3.1 and starting using it. Didn't take long at all before it start hosing up on me, and for me to determine that, by gosh, it was out of processes! The above comments notwithstanding, I'd be more than happy for somebody to demonstrate conclusively to me that I'm not having the problem I'm having. My challenge is for anybody running NS 3.1 on black to repeatedly compress and uncompress a small directory, for example, and see how many time you can do it before things blow up, or you can reasonably conclude that things aren't going to die. -- Royce Howland, DKW Systems Corp. | "And since OS/2 2.0 is a 32-bit Everything is IMHO | operating system, programs are royce@splunge.uucp (NeXTMail OK) | easier to write and run faster, or kakwa!atlantis!splunge!royce | too." -ad for OS/2 2.0

Legend has it that SGI discussed the matter with NeXT several years ago, but were sent packing. If so, it was a lose-lose decision IMO. Since then SGI has been moving Irix firmly into the SysV and X camp, sad to say. The Indy has it's own Indigo Magic GUI, which sounds like an attempt to copy a few good ideas from NEXTSTEP. Here's a hint as to how advanced the SGI GUI is: they just started to offer multimedia email and digital reference tools. Nice, but several years after NEXTSTEP. As for good video hardware to run NEXTSTEP on, I look forward to the HP-PA RISC port to those studly HP/apollo systems. In the short term, we've ordered a DEC MTE 486 system that features an S3-928 card, which can hold 4 MB of VRAM.

I also want to draw line to show the realations between tables. i.e. emp table is connected to dept table based on dept_id, since both of them is in iconify mode so there is only one or more connecting to the push button. If the table is in expanded form like Salary table the line should be drwan to the actual field, as shown on diagram above. Can you also tell me if I want to use Oracle database kit on Next, does tha oracle RDBMS has to reside on NeXT or I can use it to retrive Oracle data from other machine? Oh ya one last thing, Can any body tell me about the NeXT support ? (is it easy to get support from NeXT, how quickly is the response normaly, etc...). Thank in adavance for the reply.

You've got a couple options here, and things to do at various levels. 1a - Install an Localtalk / Ethernet gateway between your NeXT and your Mac. Shiva used to (and I presume they still do) make a box called the Fastpath that does this, and there may be other, similar products on the market. Caymen used to make one called the Gatorbox which was generally regarded as inferior to the Shiva Fastpath. The function of this piece is to pass the Appletalk packets between the two different LANs. I'm not certain if these devices will also route the TCP/IP packets as well. 1b - Install an Ethernet card in a Duo Desktop Dock or an SCSI Ethernet interface on your brother's Powerbook's SCSI chain. This would directly connect your brother's machine on your local Ethernet. Be forwarned however - the SCSI bus on the Apple machines is set up to give priority to data packets to disk peripherals, so you will not see the same performance with an SCSI Ethernet interface as you would with a direct processor bus interface (NuBus or PDS) 2a - Install CAP or similar software on the NeXT. While NeXT shipped software to provide the Appletalk protocols with NEXTSTEP 3.0, I think they no longer do so with 3.1, so you will need to turn to other sources, one of which is CAP (the Columbia Appletalk Package) available at various sites on the Internet (you might try sumex-aim.stanford.edu in /pub/info-mac directories). Likewise, Mt. Xinu (that's Unix spelled backwards) publishes Appletalk software for a variety of Unix machines, and I think the NeXT is one. Does anyone know if the 3.0 Appletalk stuff still works with 3.1? In any event, this would allow your brother to publish all or part of his disk which could in turn be mounted on your NeXT. 2b - Install Intercon's NFS Share and TCP/IP software (either from Intercon or Apple) on your brother's Duo. This would then allow your brother to mount an NFS-published portion of the NeXT's disk. My recommendation is for 1b and 2b, which maximizes ease of installation and administration. CAP is free, but take much more effort to configure correctly than any of the parts of steps 1b and 2b. I vaguely recall that the Fastpath and Gatorboxes are fairly expensive pieces of equipment (~$1,500?) while something like Asantes Mini EN/SC SCSI-Ethernet interface is about the third of that cost.

The Viper mentioned above, with 4 MB of RAM should theorically be able to do 1024x768 at 32 bits, since 2 MB is plenty for it at 16 bits.

It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi.

Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.)

I've got a two IDE drive system (GW 2K) and on drive 0 I've got NS (400MB) and DOS (5MB) Now, this gives me a neat boot option to use either DOS or NS, so I gave over an entire second IDE to DOS (205MB). That worked OK, but I have no need for that much DOS space, and NS wants to eat space, so I figured I'd repartition the second drive to 50MB NS and 155MB DOS. Sounds great, but the NS boot no longer recognizes my second DOS drive. Thats's no huge problem, as I have little need for it anyway. Problem arises when I place any user account on the secondary NS partition. Initial hardware boot of the system followed by user login to that partition will fail to attach to the startup directory. Secondary logins are OK. I placed the second drive in the /etc/fstab directory to ensure mount on boot, but still no luck. This brings me to my question: Can anyone explain how NS/FIP 'probes' for disks and places them in /etc/mtab and mounts them up properly. When are they mounted if they are not in /etc/fstab? No matter what I did for DOS partitions, they either mount auto- matically (/dev/rhd0h) or never (/dev/rhd1h). The kernel is pulling off much undocumented magic in this area, and I'd like to understand it better. TIA. -Dean -- Dean S.

Presumably the app does an ioctl on the tty thus spoiling my machinations - or no, it must be using its own pseudoterminal. Anyone have any ideas on a fix ? Or is it "hack the code" time ? Thanks in advance, Kerry Guise

I'll never use a >public domain NEXTSTEP driver. Huh? It's a kit, right? What's the point of a kit you can't use? First of all, I agree that NeXT should be very careful about what drivers it releases, but this is a different issue than NeXT advocating third party device driver development. An O.S. I use when I'm not using NEXTSTEP is Linux. Linux has lots of good, reliable device drivers, and it does so because it's developers aren't folks who have been intimidated into believing that there is some mysterious difficulty in writing and debugging them. I use Linux daily for `real work' and use serveral `add-on' unofficial drivers with little trouble (much less than these hilarious NSFIP serial drivers). Linux has more, and in some cases, better device drivers. You'd be insane to casually install unsupported device drivers on a machine you can't afford to have go down, but it's a price I think many end-users/owners, are willing to pay. For any driver of even remotely cool hardware, there would be enough comp.sys.next folks who would try it out and could give new users an idea of a drivers reliability. NeXT should make it clear, though, the possible consequences of using unsupported drivers. Like it or not, this is the PC world. There is such a broad variety of potentially useful equipment we can't possibly expect NeXT and a few blessed companies to develop and support it all. NeXT should encourage all kinds of device driver development.

Why NeXT has to release the driver kit to the whole world: Never mind the fact that I'm stuck with 1024 x 768 resolution. Never mind the fact that I had to buy a $ 300 Adaptec SCSI board to use once. Never mind the thousands of folks who owned 486 machines prior to May,1993. On MY system bus, I have a dsp CAMAC controller, an NI GPIB controller, and two Canberra high speed Multi-Channel Scalers. Now, maybe some entrepreneur will go to developer's school and plunk down $1500 and two weeks time to write the NI driver, but, given that I'm probably the only person in the world who wants them, nobody (but me) is going to waste their time on the others. Sure, I could keep rebooting every time I want to change from taking data to analyzing it, but that ain't what I bought a $5000 486 machine for. Besides, I think data acquisition under NeXTstep could be awesome. Robert -- Robert Lutwak robert@amo.mit.edu MIT Atomic Resonance and Spectroscopy Laboratory ---- NeXTmail always welcome ----

It looks like the fix is long in coming, and when it does, there is no guarantee that it will be up to par. I have always avoided pushing PC serial ports too far under any operating system. They are too limited for high speed transfers. While this may avoid the real problem, I have tried to use outboard serial ports whenever possible, either with dedicated hardware such as Digiboard or Computone offer, or through terminal/communications servers. The least expensive communications box I have seen on the market recently is the Net Hopper from Sea Change. I know it handles PPP, but I don't think it does SLIP. The NetBlazer from Telebit handles both. I know this is an extra, large expense for the single user but small workgroups could profit from putting their serial connections on boxes like these. Xylogics, Xyplex, and quite a few other companies have really nice hardware that offloads the computer from communications duties and puts the equipment on the Ethernet where it can do the most good in a work group.

Xylogics is quite good, Digicom is all right, there are many excellent terminal servers on the market. However, to suggest that in order to use a temrinal program or run a SLIP on a personal NeXT system, one should have to buy an ethernet card AND a terminal server, is nice, but of little practical use in that place called "the real world" where most people would like to just plug in a modem and not have the system grind to a halt. ian ################# @ #Ian Bainbridge # mindvox. # ############################################### phantom. # I am not responsible for my opinons, I don't know or care! # com ###############################################################

Unfortunately, we had to delay the release of Sequence in order to concentrate on other projects in light of the changes in the NeXT market. This was done to insure our survival in a world where NEXTSTEP machines were white and initially didn't support the MusicKit.

I seem to remember at least one NeXT employee telling people on the c.s.n.* groups that the drivers were released in their present form not because the programmers thought that everything was hunky-dory, but because NS/FIP had to be ready by NeXTworld Expo. Given the choice between an OS with buggy serial drivers and no OS at all, I'd say that NeXT made the right choice. I have black hardware, and don't have to deal with these problems, but what some others have already said seems to make sense: Put the (buggy, beta) serial drivers on NeXTanswers with big warnings telling people that these are buggy and might not work. Sure, some people will get upset when they discover that these aren't the "fixes," but if the current drivers cause everything to crash and burn, I can't imagine that the fixes could be much worse.

Obviously *this* ignorant fool doesn't understand why we should be swearing on the net about what a horrible company NeXT is for producing a top-quality system for the PC, with almost no manpower, and coming out with an astonishingly stable first release. Sure they botched the serial drivers. Sure, that bothers me too (I can't get SLIP up and running reliably yet). But give 'em a break, willya? They've only been in the PC scene for the summer!

You're talking another $800 right off the bat for a 540MB drive. I just spoke with my area SG sales rep about an hour ago. Basically if you want what he calls a "useful" system you're looking at a bit more than $5000. Try about $9000. The R4000SC INDY with 16/540, 8bit color (dithers to 24) and a 16" high resolution monitor (he called the 15" a "low resolution" monitor) runs just under $12,000. You could buy the R4000PC which doesn't have the external cache for nearly $3000 less but you lose about 25% to 75% of the speed of the SC (or you could say that for $3000 more you get a 25% to 75% increase.) Quoteth he... MIPS SPECFP MFLOPS R4000PC Processor Cache 64 40 6 R4000SC 1MB Secondary Cache 89 61 14 A PC to SC upgrade is available for about $4000 and he says it makes all the difference for rendering and animation. The R4000SC 16/540 true 24bit color and 19" monitor run around $17,000. He asked me to sit down before telling me that. Basically there have been some smothered hopes when customers find out what it takes to get a "real" system. At roughly 2.5 times the cost of a good used ND system the maxed INDY gives you close to 3.5 times the power. Not a bad deal if you have the money... just don't expect to get it all for under $5K. Of course, I am quoting a *salesman* so the validity of these claims can not be 100% established without further research. -- ==================================== Alex Currier mycroft@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu NeXTcube #1302 / ND and proud of it.

The company I work for is investigating NEXTSTEP, and if I could show them an "SQL client" or front-end for SQL that would let me easily generate queries, reports, and possibly forms, etc., they would probably be sold on it due to the large productivity gains. What programs are available as a solution to this? I have a Turbo Color hooked to the machine the Informix server is on right now, so if there are demo or evaluation products I can test, I would be glad to. The program would have to run on Intel too, however, since that's what they would be buying. Also, do I need a separate "Informix adaptor" or is that something that would be provided with a product like the above? If not, where would I find it (assuming one exists)? Any and all information is greatly appreciated, and I will summarize upon request. I have e-mailed the following companies already with requests for information.. but any information about any products is welcome: info@object.com info@oceansoft.com info@dbsa.com rosebase@BlueRose.com objects@targetdev.com Please contact me at: Eric Thompson thompson@netcom.com Saperstein, et al. 510/763-9800

I'm currently writing a report on NeXTSTEP for the Navy's Graphics Interface Standards Working Group (GISWG) and have a few question that are not addressed in the NeXTSTEP manauls that I have... - Is RenderMan interface standard controlled by Pixar? - How can it be added to (extended), or changed? - Display PostScript - publicly available specs for it? - possible to extend/change it? - Are there any image processing kits? (3rd party?) - Multithreading and event dispatching - is GUI multithreaded, eg. does the interface take one process or does every window have its own process? - Time services - synchronization, such as found in the X-synchronization extension - any real-time kits? - What are the details of the NeXTSTEP Posix extension? - What are the security features of the NeXTSTEP Window Server, eg. can't write into protected object, or does the OS take care of all the security? If you have any answers, or can point me the right direction, please send me an email. jan jan@archimedes.chinalake.navy.mil

Organization: The Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link, Sausalito, CA Date: Wed, 8 Sep 1993 21:21:39 GMT Message-ID: <CD20o3.CM7@well.sf.ca.us> Keywords: serial driver Sender: news@well.sf.ca.us I've successfully downloaded and installed the new serial driver from ftp.next.com. I'm all ready to risk another crash and burn on my system to see if it works. However, I still have yet to receive the copy of Microphone pro that I ordered at the beginning of the summer. Some time ago there was discussion of demo which could be ftp'd from somewhere. If this is a full working demo which will let me connect to the net, I'd love to try it while I wait for the real thing. Additionally, with the old serial driver, I crashed my system attempting to use the fax software that comes with NS/FIP. Since I don't have an urgent need to fax anything, I'm not quite willing to crash this machine again if no one knows for sure that this software works. Anyone have any luck with either of these? If you email me any answers, I'll summarize to the group. Thanks, Michael Rutchik ludwig@well.sf.ca.us

The problems associated with sound are hardware conflicts with other devices and problems with the ISA bus. They are NOT NeXT's fault. Many customers (me included) can get a ton of useful work done without either serial or sound support while waiting for the final drivers. Would I recommend NeXTSTEP to people who need the support NOW? No, although with the new serial drivers I should be able to reverse that decision. Most organizations are already committed to NeXTSTEP and have black hardware to support UUCP links and such, or are just beginning to evaluate NeXTSTEP as a development platform and can do without the drivers until they became available. NeXTSTEP is not yet being advertised as the ideal hobbyist / home user / desktop environment, but should be up to the task by the time it is being pushed into those markets. > Even UNSUPPORTED beta drivers are better than the current crap. ... and customers who expressed a need for the beta drivers should have been able to get them from NeXT. We were able to do so, as were a number of NeXT's larger customers to whom it was an issue.

The *base* system is probably about 7K, though. That sounds right. SoftImage is in the same ballpark. You also can't compare Alias/SoftImage/GIG/Vertigo/Wavefront to any package on NeXTSTEP yet, though. All of the former are complete production solutions: modeling, animating, rendering, compositing/2D stuff. The 3D packages on the NeXT all have RenderMan for free, which is great, but only a few offer innovative modeling tools, and none that I've played with (all but solidThinking, I believe) offer any sort of usable animation tools. Also, given that there is no standard NeXTSTEP digital solution to playing back frames, you're wedged unless you're like me and have your own BetaCam decks (or Abekas, or whatever). I'm not blaming anybody - 3D is hard, and it's a shitty time to be developing third party apps for NeXTSTEP. All the packages on the SGI grew up in an environment where people bought the app and the hardware to run it, and the margins were/are high. Most of these companies have been in business for 5-10 years, exclusively developing 3D software. And if they're new, like SoftImage, they are a spin-off of one of the older ones. > And I wonder, if this isn't one of those mission-critical bottlenecks that > OOP can do so much to clear up?

Not until you have some sort of QuickTime support. Then maybe. The problem with 3D on the NeXT is the same problem that 2D stuff in the 0.8 days. The software is swamping the hardware. On the SGI, the problem has usually been the reverse, but programmers are odd animals, and can hack arounnd that. With the advent of OpenGL, which is going to be as ubiquitous as X on high end graphical workstations, SGI apps will start appearing on other workstations screens. None of this is NeXT's fault, but it certainly isn't bringing the high end 3D folks to look at NeXT, they're busy porting their up-until-now SGI only apps to other platforms that support X and OpenGL. sigh.

Can you imagine the press if NS/I had not been released on time ? Not to mention all the whining on the net about how it was important for NeXT to show that it could meet the deadline, given the cloud it was under, and the outraged cries of "how could they let the serial driver bug keep them from releasing on time; they can always release a fix !" It's a lose-lose situation as far as the net goes, but not when you conside r the implications in the wider marketplace.

I do not know how fast you will get working drivers for all the different third party boards that somebody can configure the machine with. Also, you're missing the 3D hardware which, even if minimal, gives you an edge when you want to do video, sound, direct-to-disk and animation (simple) at the same time. Regarding the Interface Builder, you can get some tool in the same lines for Unix/Motif. GINA is public domain and quite nice. You can develop interfaces for C++ and Common Lisp programs. You can also get a cross-platform GUI development tool. I have yet to hear of one supporting NeXTStep. Another minus. I like the NeXTStep look because it looks "designed by designers" and not by engineers [fill in with the appropriate disclaimer]. But it's bad it's not X-based (even if you consider X a hack). OK, you can get Co-Xist, but it's not bundled. With respect to Postscript, the window system of SGIs used to be PS-based (NeWS), but now it's just X/Motif, but with Postscript extensions, and you can use their window manager (4Dmwm), which is the nicest looking of all X WMs. I guess this would be the way NeXTStep should be built. Finally, I (and the rest around here) hate that "Macintosh style" input focus on NeXTStep.

Probably the kernel is not that far away from something like Mach. It's mostly an interface problem. Mach has a cleaner face, and NS's GUI could be exhibited with no shame at the museum of modern art in NY or Pompidou in Paris. Remember IBM once licensed NeXTStep. That didn't mean they had to throw AIX away (too bad :-) ). It would probably be easier for SGI to sell an NS face as an option, than for NeXT to add the cool missing stuff. They are working very hard in the OS division at SGI any way, so eventually a micro-kernel will be down there I guess. Unless they hire some really good designers (*) to outdo NS.

My problem is this: When I print more then one doc at a time (this means I do not wait until the lsat doc is done) thenm only the first gets printed. I have watched the spool folder on both machines and whi le the first doc is printing both are in the folder. Just after the first doc finishes the second will be in the folder by itself but it gets erased before it can print. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Sprayon will only sell direct to distributors, but has a toll-free customer service number so people can find the distributor nearest them. The number is: 1-800-777-2966. I called the number, and found a distributor in Columbus, near OSU: Boehm Stamp and Printing Company 2050 Hardy Parkway Columbus, OH (614) 875-9010 One 16oz can costs $2.85, plus tax and any shipping. I have not been able to test out the paint, since it was on back order. I was told that Boehm should have it back in stock in about a week. ----- I seem to remember that the firm in Columbus was a bust when I tried them. Instead I called Sherwin-Williams (not Sherman) in Bedford Heights, OH and asked the name of a distributor of their Spray-On product line in my area. Alas, I can now remember neither the name nor the address. But I did go there and ask about it. They could only order the stuff in case lots (which I recall was 48 cans), but they said they could ask for a couple sample cans and when they came they would just give them to me (much to my surprise, of course), and that's what they did about two weeks later. On the cans I have (they're 12 oz not 16), the legend 4NeXT-Black does not appear, but everything else listed above *is* on the label. Since you've asked: sorry, not for sale.

Again, always willing to display my misunderstanding of Makefiles (I've noticed that this seems to flush out better solutions so we all win :-), I've attached a context diff that "patch" would be only too eager to apply to the original Makefile in the Bezier BackSpace view.

All the methods mentioned give the IP address. To my knowledge, the only was to get the ethernet address is to look at it during boot. You need to get to the ROM monitor and set the "verbose boot" flags. If anyone knows of a way to display the ethernet address without taking odwn the machine, I'd love to know it. Basically, the way to get it during boot, is to set verbose flags so that you can watch the /etc/rc script and all the other diagnostics run. This can be accomplished by either halting a boot with Right_Cmd-~ or by going in through the NMI ROM monitor. You can get to the NMI monitor by pressing Cmd-Cmd-~. A little window pops up, and everything else stops. Go to the ROM minitor by typing 'halt'. This will sync and halt the system. At this point it may actually tell you the ethernet address in the form XX:XX:XX:XX:XX where XX is 00 to ff. If not, type 'p' to modify the configuration parameters. There will be several options, just hit return to not change anything. When you get to "verbose test mode?" type 'y'. This will display all sorts of info on boot instead of the spinning hard disk. Early on you will see the ethernet address. Good luck, and I hope you can decipher what I mean here. You can also get more information from Chapter 6 of the SysAdmin guide. I have assumed that you are cleared to do all these steps. If this is not true, get permission and/or help from your sysadmin. -- Christopher Douty cdouty@jarthur.claremont.edu | MIME and | "I ask you, which government christov@tellink.net | NeXTmail OK | is more threat to liberty, the ----------------------------------------------+ weak, severely limited government of 1789, or the mega-state of today that takes 40 to 50 percent of our income, has minions as numerous as the stars in the heavens and

I don't use them because I have nothing better to do with my time, or particularily want to see one company succeed over another due to religious mania. If MicroSoft made software that fit my needs, I would be more than happy using their products, because I don't really care whether Bill Gates is a billionaire, trillionaire, or pauper, what I am purchasing are applications, not magical auras and mission-critical pretty menus. I am on a system called MindVox which is something of a NeXT mecca and everybody from a large percentage of the users, to the owners of the parent company, personally promote and use NeXT's. Part of my descision to purchase NeXT was colored by this. When something does not work, then the local NeXT forums try to offer help with workarounds, make available "under the table" patches from developers who have access to such things, or have reasonable discussion. What seems to happen with a small but very vocal percentage of the people in comp.sys.next, is not only a lack of help in solving problems, but this strange attitude of denial, where someone who points out a problem, even a very serious problem such as the former serial drivers which crashed all the time, is somehow "evil" and "against NeXT" because they want something they've paid for, and depend on, to work. This attitude can be shrugged off and ignored, because I realize that many people at .edu sites have a lot of spare time and little to do with it, so championing NeXT might be an interesting hobby. But letters such as this one, are really puzzling. Is the following supposed to somehow demonstrate that the people who really believe in NeXT are something other than lunatics who border on the psychotic? This was sent to me in response to comments made about faulty serial drivers, which were not even MY comments, I merely followed-up a message, and agreed with its contents: john@wpa.com (John Bartley) writes: > You just don't give up, do you?

I'm tired > of your bullshit, so go shove a DOS disk up your slimey asshole. I'll > be happy to assist if you find that a difficult task. > > If you need a translation, just let me know Mr. Buttfuck. Without even attempting to rationalize where so much hate and anger comes from, which I realize this person is just venting in my direction for lack of another outlet, what on earth is that supposed to convey to somebody who has spent nearly $3000 in support of NeXT's products because they want to convince their corporation to give NeXT a chance? Most people I have talked with do not hate anybody, or have any religious mission for or against NeXT. They have some simple, basic problems with functionality and stability that they need resolved before they can run those "mission-critical custom apps" on a platform. I'm sure NS is fine for playing around, but I'm not interested in playing around, were I, I would have downloaded Linux instead. I have work to get done, and select my software and hardware, based on the needs they fill, not the marketing the parent company does or doesn't do. ian ################# @ #Ian Bainbridge # mindvox. # ############################################### phantom. # I am not responsible for my opinons, I don't know or care! # com ###############################################################

I replaced it within a week with an identical one from Pixelated Technologies. I decided a few weeks later to submit a claim on my computer insurance. My 040 cube with assorted peripherals is covered up to $17,000 by Safeware, Inc. of Columbus, Ohio. I filled out the very short form and lo and behold, today received a $380 check from them - no questions asked. I highly recommend them for their prompt, courteous service. Annual premium for this coverage is $159 and obviously a good investment for me. To prevent a repeat of this incident I installed an AC power conditioner called PowerPack II. This is the lo end model of the PowerWedge line made for hi end audio components. It has two plugs for digital components and four for analog, costs $219 and comes in black.

Myself and a co-worker were talking last night and he was wondering why NeXT simply has not extended the functionality of the Doc? I am sure it may not be high on their list of things to do; but, it would make sense. The point was noted that for some reason, Doc extension programs seem to always have a glitch in them somewhere. It would be nice to have multiple levels on the doc with similar configurations as those found in Engage. This is one problem I see. It would cut Engage's marketplace.

The machine must also be able to run Soft-PC. Someone is looking to buy an Intel box to run DOS/Windows, and I thought this might be a good oportunity to spec out a minimal system that could also run NS. I would imagine a 100-150 MB hard disc, 8 MB Ram (to get started - I'll make sure that the SIMM configuration allows additional chips to be added without losing too much of the original investment), and a 800x600 (approx.) monitor would all make for a tolerable user system - even if only running NS in greyscale. I don't have any information on the chip-upgrade capabilities of some Intel machines (I heard that Compaq offered a motherboard which could get a performance boost by swapping in a faster CPU.) By ensuring a reasonable upgrade path, one might squeek by with a slow machine now, yet spend some money down the road to breath more life into the system when the situation allowed. Again, this system only needs to run Windows for now, so any NS-compatability will be a bonus. I won't worry about how to load NeXTSTEP on the disk just yet. At first I was thinking of taking replies by email, but I think this would be a valid point of discussion since a lot of people are wondering how developers plan to deploy their general purpose apps in businesses that didn't want to invest a lot on clerical desktops. -- Don __________________________________________________________________________ When in doubt, bore it out. - Hotrodder's Handbook pp.6

For example: grep, egrep, fgrep (1) - search a file for a pattern For my local man pages, I could run the following in the directory containing the local /man? subdirectories to prepare them to be used in DL: /usr/etc/catman -w -M /Disk2/LocalLibrary/Documentation/ManPages ixbuild -gv (Of course, .displayCommand, .index.iname, and .index.itype must be properly set up). After doing this, any commands found in my local man pages were always listed with the section following in parentheses, followed by the whatis description. Under 3.1, this seems not to work anymore. In fact, the system-supplied man pages don't use the whatis description, and the man pages are listed like so: man1/grep.1 This looks pretty ugly---I certainly prefer the old 3.0 way of displaying man pages! Am I doing something wrong, or has Digital Librarian changed the way it handles this. I suspect that it has, since the system-supplied man pages don't display the whatis description (at least on my system). Any fixes? Leonard Manzara manzara@cpsc.UCalgary.CA

Message-ID: <274o80$esp@hermes.athena.com> Keywords: Lotus, lawsuit, freedom Dave is out of town and away from net access so I am taking the liberty of posting this for him. Here is what Dave has to say about what he is up to: FROM THE DESK OF DAVE POLLAK: I wanted to bring the folks on this list up to date on my actions and the background. I have filed the petition personally. I am not alleging any harm to Athena Design nor is the company at all involved with the suit. (Athena Design is the company that I founded. We have the best selling NEXTSTEP spreadsheet, Mesa, and until two weeks ago, Mesa could execute macros written in the Lotus Macro Language.) The company will stay within the law. The Lotus v. Borland decision is the first decision to grant copyright protection to a language. Based on the reasoning in the decision, AT&T owns a copyright on the C language and anybody with a C compiler is currently infringing on that copyright. I found the decision and its reasoning deeply disturbing. Somebody had to do something about it. Seeing as I am the only lawyer in the world who has written a spreadsheet that can run Lotus Macros, I figured is was that somebody. I claim that a computer program written in any language is protected speech. This should be a very easy point to win, although there is no case law on it. Further, I claim that the grant of monopoly rights in a language that I use for protected speech infringes my First Amendment right to express myself in that language. The relief that I am seeking is simply to have the Lotus v. Borland decision remanded and decided such that it does not infringe on my rights to express myself in a computer language. Think about a situation in which the government granted monopoly rights to a printing company such that anybody who wrote a Chinese language publication had to have it printed by this company. That would abridge the rights of anybody who used Chinese as a means of expression. I use programs written in the Lotus Macro Language as a means for business and creative expression. Under the Borland ruling, I must go to the Lotus "printing company" and pay a royalty to express myself in this language. This is prior restraint. First Amendment and prior restraint draws the attention of the Court and the issues underlying mandamus should be possible to overcome. You may be wondering why I chose a civil rights tact to what seems to be a business-related issue. For me and the people I associate with, this is our civil right. We have just been told to step to the back of the bus because Lotus now owns the bus. It is very important to me that a community that I saw grow from infancy into a very influential and powerful industry be protected and allowed to continue to grow and thrive. If you don't know me, the preceding sentence may not make much sense. I have been around the computer industry since the days of the garages. I have seen what a few people with a vision and fire in their eyes can do. I do not want this spirit of great creativity to be stifled by a law that will benefit the current owners of computer languages, but harm the creative spirits and consumers who benefit greatly from the tools that the computer nerds have built. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Tracy Kugelman, Athena Design on behalf of Dave Pollak

At first he was showing some charts and comparing the current PC OSes, mainly NT, OS/2, Solaris, UNIXware and NeXTSTEP. He stated that NT was better than OS/2, and that OS/2 will probably die because it cannot sufficiently differentiate itself from Windows nor NT. He said he hoped that instead of dying OS/2 would find a way to differentiate itself enough in this "differentiate or die" market, because the market needed every single competitor to M$. Then he ruled out Solaris and UNIXware because they, too, do not differentiate too much from NT, offering no better interface or applications. With the amount of applications available for windows, M$ would just crash into the market. X/Motif on top of a plain UNIX were not exactly what end users need. Remaining were NT and NeXTSTEP. NS differentiates greatly from NT with it's OO-approach and its other technical merits, especially since the custom-app market is exploding now. All this was taken pretty positively by the audience (ca. 10% NS users, 20% had seen NS before). He went on to show slides of commercial applications (Wordperfect, an Adobe program, and two more I forgot, all big-name ones) and compared the Lines Of Code of the NS vs the Windows versions. In the case of Wordperfect, it was 1,500,000 (Losedoze) vs. 500,000 (NS) LOC, in the other cases it was generally 1:5, i.e. the companies needed to write only 20% of the code they needed to write for the Windoze version. Many Oohs and Aahs from the audience. The "slides", BTW, was a Concurrence demo. He then gave a NS demo, kind of similar to the one at NeXTWORLD. He demoed Mail.app, Wordperfect, PasteUp, drag'n drop, cut'n paste, Objectware (Rightbrain & Pencom objects, pasted together in IB to make a small custom-app without writing a single Line Of Code) etc. He also did the Apha-Channel demo, y'know, the one with the trees and the Ferrari and the rotating cube behind the Ferrari's windows, shining through. This was applauded a lot, people were stunned (at least the ones that had never seen NS before were). At the end, after about 50 minutes, he did the NeXTtime demo. The quality seemed to have improved a lot since NeXTWORLD, and also the speed was very satisfying. There was not a single glitch or lost frame visible during the whole video (ca. 3 min), quite different from the May version, where the film sometimes seemed to get stuck for a moment. He was roared and applauded off the podium, people were pretty much raving at that time. DriverKit was also introduced, and made a lot of people astonishingly quiet :-) After the speech there was some time for questions, and I asked about the number of installed systems. He said 50,000 black and the had originally assumed to be able to sell 25,000 NSFIP in Q3+Q4, 1993. He said it look like they're going to make that goal or even exceed it. They want and expect to sell 100,000 copies in 1994. HP ports will be ready in Q2, 1994 (that'll make it June 30 ;-), and PDO on HP in 60 days. When he was asked about other RISC ports, he explained the following: Clinton had a sign during his presidential election campaign saying "The Economy, Stupid!" to remind him of the main problem. Steve has a sign in his office saying "Intel, Stupid" to remind him of the fact that last year, about 650,000 RISC boxes were sold overall, but 30,000,000 intel boxes. NeXT has little resources and thus needs to make agreements with other hardware vendors for ports etc. "However, we are working in this field, our phones keep ringing, and you can expect one or two announcements this year. From the usual suspects (grinning)." He also said that they had NS running on 88100 and dual PowerPC boxes. Those are waiting in the shelf. I guess when the first PowerPCs ship, NeXT will dig out its port and start writing drivers. The HP port is "almost running in our labs". Nice quotes: "Many people are trying to copy Interface Builder, but it's impossible, since Interface Builder does not generate source code. What Interface Builder does is it basically links objects together. If you don't have objects, then it's pretty difficult to link them together." "It's difficult to teach a secretary to cancel a print job using 'lprm <job-id>'". BTW NeXT has a largish booth at the GUUG Messe, directly next to the main German distributor's, d'Art, which also isn't small. That's all, folks, and excuse my non-native-speaker-english, please. Now I'm looking forward to Bud Tribble's keynote speech at the Object World Germany, Sept. 20 in Frankfurt. -- Volker Herminghaus-Shirai (vhs@qb.rhein-main.de) Computer industry: Industry in which the number of units sold of any given product is inversely proportional to its technical excellence.

Thanks to all who replied. Unfortunately, our particular deal for some headless cubes fell through and so I won't have the chance to try out these ideas after all.

And if so, can I assign, say, /dev/ttya as the replacement console, and just stick a terminal on it? This should probably be in the FAQ. Losing Your Head Instructions for Creating Headless NeXT Servers 1. With a monitor and keyboard attached, change the ROM monitor to use serial port A as alternate console. You can attach a dumb terminal to this port, if you like. 2. If you want to run the machine without using the NeXTSTEP Window Server, edit /etc/ttys and comment out the first real line, and uncomment the second, details are in the ttys file comment field. If you disable the Window Server this way, you cannot use this machine as a NeXTPrinter or FAX server, as those functions need Display PostScript, nor can you manage applications remotely via the -NXHost construct. 3. Build a power switch to connect to the video port. The 19 pin connector is hard to get; you can butcher a 25 pin one, removing the pins that interfere with plugging it in. Install a normally-open, momentary pushbutton switch between pins 6 and 16, as counted on the correct connector. 4. Power the station/cube down, unplug the wall power, remove the mono monitor cable, and install the new pushbutton cable. Then plug it back in, push the button, and it should start up fine! 5. Power it down by executing shutdown -h -p now or /etc/halt -y -p from an rlogin session as root. 6. You can use NeXTSTEP admin applications, as well as other NeXTSTEP programs, by launching them from the command line. Simply add -NXHost <yourhost> to the end of the command-line that execs the application. and be sure to use Preferences to turn on the Public Window Server on your remote host. Note: turning on Public Window Server can be a security risk on a `public' network. See your sysadmin for more information. --- >You should be able to run the cubes headless, but its a little tricky. You >need a way to emulate the power-on switch on the keyboard, but this can be >done with a simple push-button switch and a db-15 connector. There's an another problem you'll run into when trying to run the machines as print servers is that the window server needs to be running to use a NeXT printer (that's where the postscript interpretation happens for both the screen and the printer). it's not entirely clear to me that the window server ever gets started up if you run the machine without a monitor (or at least without something that looks to the monitor port like a monitor...not sure what that'd be but you get the idea), and without that sserver you won't be able to print to a next printer. -- >My experience has been that the WindowServer will panic when >run without a monitor attached.

Nothing more... well, a small box for it all ... -- To function without a monitor, a cube either needs a new style power supply or more than one board in the case placing a load on the power supply. In addition, you'll need a little dongle that you attach to the monitor receptacle which has a push button for booting the CPU board. I remember someone reporting that a headless cube without the window server running would not function properly as a print server when running OS release 3.1. Older versions of the OS seemed to work fine.

You're very wise to check on this. I had to transport my 21" monitor (as well as its matching slab) to my apartment when it arrived at MIT, and imagine my horror when I discovered that we couldn't fit the monitor in the front, rear, or trunk of the taxi that we had called! We ended up putting the box in the trunk, sticking out for the world to see for our five-mile ride through pothole-laden Cambridge and Somerville. (I don't think that we even tied the trunk down.)

A few people have objected to my posting it in groups like comp.os.linux(.misc), commenting that "they're DOS games, not appropriate for {Linux, NeXT cubes, Suns}." I only post this to groups that deal with machines and operating systems *that the games will run on*. Currently, that includes the following: - PC clones under MS-DOS - Macintoshes - Atari ST/TT/Falcon - Sun Sparcstation (SunOS or Solaris 2) - Sun 3 - DECstation (MIPS) running Ultrix - SGI (Iris/Indigo/Indy) running Irix - Linux (386) - NeXT A significant advantage of the all-text format is that the games are easy to port -- trivial, in fact. The machine-independent game files we put on the archive sites will run without modification on any system that has a TADS run-time. Even if your system is not one of those listed above, it should be easy to get the TADS run-time running on it if it is at all Unix-like. Though source to the TADS run-time is not freely distributable, you can generally get it for porting purposes just by asking the folks at High Energy Software and filling out a non-discolsure agreement. (More info about TADS is at the end this message.) Finally, one person felt that the previous posting was too commerical. In an effort to avoid abusing the net, I've removed everything but a brief mention of our commercial game. Dave *-----------------------------------------------------------------------------* The Unnkulian Unventure Series Adventure Games for the 90's Remember the good old days, when adventure games challenged you with great puzzles and evocative descriptions without resorting to any graphics at all? We really miss that emphasis on gameplay rather than glitz, so we've decided to write our own adventure games along the lines of the early text games we liked so much. If you're looking for top-quality interactive fiction comparable to 1980's commercial offerings, check out the Unnkulian Unventure series, available from an archive site near you! In _Unnkulian Underworld: The Unknown Unventure_ you play the part of Kuulest's slave, and must recover the Orb of Studosity from the evil Unnkulians. Kuulest, the old geezebag, has died and left you with nothing to go on but a cryptic message about saving the planet. You'll encounter amazing Acme products, the infamous Guardian, those witty creatures known as Drolls, a giant beaver, and even the Dread Unnkulian Warrior. <Gasp!> In _Unnkulian Unventure II: The Secret of Acme_ your adventure continues as you try to create some good press for yourself -- wouldn't want to fade into anonymous obscurity, now would you? Along the way, you'll find the answers to these compelling questions, and more: o What happened to the Unnkulians? o Why are Acme products so bad? o What is this cheez stuff, really? Plus, you'll get to explore Dawg Rock, a Duhdist Retreat, Acme's clandestine prototypes laboratory, and even pay a visit to Acme HQ. In _Unnkulia One-Half: The Salesman Triumphant_, you'll play the role of a down-and-out Acme salesman, forced to work out of the Golden Dragon Inn, dangerously near Dread Unnkulia. Will you accumulate enough loot in this frightful backwater berg to turn your fortunes in your favor? And, in _Unnkulia Zero: The Search for Amanda_, will you, the Valley King's most trusted warrior, rescue his Lady Amanda from the gruesome clutches of the evil Unnkulians? The Unnkulian Unventures have already gotten rave reviews from numerous adventure game connoisseurs around the world, so why not give them a try? The games are available for FTP from the if-archive at ftp.gmd.de. (Note that the site wuarchive.wustl.edu keeps a mirror of the if-archive in the mirrors directory.)

Is anyone out there experiencing problems similar to: If you copy lots of files at once from SCSI CDROM/OD to SCSI HD (or vice versa) the system crashes If you start more than ONE background processes copying/deleting files, the system bombs. Pretty much it seems like under NSi you cant do more than one thing at a time (involving SCSI I/O), nor can you do any movement of a great number of files without bombing the system.

I don't think this is the "real" message. I think that the condition that must be placed on such a releasing strategy is that it will be quickly followed up. It is also important to remember that there will ALWAYS be bugs in software. But not only bugs, but design errors, feature omissions, etc. So if that's the case, and we accept that, then we should encourage what I call (I'm sure I didn't coin the phrase) "incremental releasing". In this case the developer (NeXT in this case) would incrementally improve their product to (at first) limited audience, and expanding as things go along. By this I DON'T mean incrementally every 6-9 months, I mean every 2-3 months (possibly with patches even more frequently). > Finally, if you are a SOFTWARE ONLY COMPANY with ONE > PRODUCT, then that product has better be damn good, and > damn robust. NeXT, with their one product, demonstrated > that 3.1 was neither of these. I think you're being harsh here. Yes, I hope and strive for my products to be the best ('damn good'). But let's look at an example of quality elsewhere...the automobile industry. It is commonly (though not necessarily completely) agreed that the Lexus LS400 is probably one of the best quality production car in the world (at almost any price). But few people really realize that the way this car came about was not that Lexus (Toyota) woke up one day and said "hey...let's build the best quality car in the world!". In fact the Lexus has been built (through the Tercel, Corolla, Camry, Cressida, etc.) over the last 20-25 years. That kind of quality doesn't happen over night. The lesson here is, while all companies must strive for the best in quality, they must also "get the product out", and into customer hands, where (no matter how perfect they thought they made it), inevitably, there will be problems. Let's get it out there, find the problems and FIX them quickly. So I think your frustration (and all others too) should be directed NOT at having NeXT wait to release, but rather having NeXT hurry up with the fixes. I think they are listening, and I think they are getting better. -- Chris Cuilla --- Opinions voiced are my own and only my own and I defend to the death my right to --------------------------------------------------------------------- "There's no such thing a as 'part-time' perfectionist." ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Can you imagine the press if NS/I had not > been released on time ? Not to mention all the whining on the net about how it No no no! The philosophy is all wrong. What you've said is that it's OK to release a buggy product in order to meet deadlines. There's always going to be a deadline in the future, everyone has a deadline! Does that mean that everyone should feel justified in releasing products with bugs? Now, NeXT's message is "The Object is the Advantage." They ask us to leverage their work, use their reusable objects, use the shared libraries, use the Kits. However, if we all agree that it's acceptable for NeXT to release buggy kits and objects, GIVEN THAT all of our applications use them, then we all bear the pain. Our software experiences the bugs, and our users are the people that get pissed off. If NeXT releases a buggy kit, then it may be YOUR product that gets delayed for a full year while you wait for NeXT to release the bug-fix-upgrade. NeXT releasing a bug is not like Lotus releasing a bug. The developer's dependancies on NeXT to release stable software is much greater. Finally, if you are a SOFTWARE ONLY COMPANY with ONE PRODUCT, then that product has better be damn good, and damn robust. NeXT, with their one product, demonstrated that 3.1 was neither of these. It's a pain to install, and it's not really compatible with 3.0, and it had serious bugs. To say, "Hey, it's fine for NeXT to release a sub-par OS with bugs in it" is not justifiable! Especially something as important as a serial port. If people can release free UNIX operating systems that work correctly, then commercial companies should be able to do the same. What ever happened to, "It Just Works" (TM)? How about, "It Just Don't Work, But May In A Few Months When We Release The Non-Beta Version." NeXT has got to start living up to their own hype, because people are going to stop believing that they can deliver. This isn't meant as a flame to NeXT, but just a reality check. Take it for what it's worth. - db

To say, "Hey, it's fine for NeXT to release > a sub-par OS with bugs in it" is not justifiable! Installation pain is just par for the course in the Rube Goldberg world of "industry-standard architecture." Why do you think Windows is almost always sold pre-installed? On the side of serious bugs, the serial drivers are the only one I know of. Assuming you could get the thing installed, everything I've heard is that NS/I is very robust, modulo the serial drivers. NeXT did try to fix this as soon as they could, though obviously not fast enough for some. Yes, the product had better be damn good. By and large, NeXTSTEP is. Compared to the competition, its light years ahead. But it also has to ship. IMHO, NeXT was already on the late side in shipping NS/I (in particular, a wider beta program a la NT beta might have revealed the serial ports problems a whole lot sooner). -- - Stefano Pagiola Food Research Institute, Stanford University spagiola@leland.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged) spagiola@FRI-nxt-Pagiola.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged)

Here's the short answer: Icon was removed from the 3.0 release. If you save your 2.x shlibs, and point the internals of Icon towards the 2.x shlibs, you will get a 2.x version of icon running on a 3.0 machine. To do this, you can edit the file by hand, or use the program IconPatch. UsingIconAnd3.0.ps is a document that describes how to go about patching Icon. IconPatch is an optional program that allows you to patch Icon by drag and drop, instead of using a hex editor. IconPatch.app and UsingIconAnd3.0.ps should be on orst or nova. I haven't checked lately to see if they are there. There will be limitations to what you can do. It's a frankenstein kind a thing. You cannot save jpeg compressed tiffs, appkit panels will be 2.0 versions. No pantone colors. As is to be expected, things get stranger and stranger when you run 2.x apps with 2.x shlibs, on a system running a 3.x base. Icon won't work under 3.1. This bug can be patched, or you can turn Public Window Server on. This however reduces the security on your network. When I released the details on patching Icon, and wrote IconPatch, I did so because no one was shipping a reasonable bitmap editor, Appsoft had told me "next week" for a month, and no one was willing to show me a beta or demo to prove that they actually intended to release something. I needed a bitmap editor, so did others, and it needed to be done. I still have Icon from 1.0 in my LocalApps, but not Icon.app. I don't have the shlibs installed either. It was meant as a temporary thing. If you need a bitmap editor, consider buying one from one of the following companies: (I have no affiliation with any of these companies) ------ IconMaker BlueSky Software P.O. Box 57096 Sherman Oaks, CA 91403 (818) 989-4928 fax austin@netcom.com (NeXTWORLD review lists: eronike@cerf.net) NeXTWORLD rated this program four cubes. It's a great program for designing small (64x64 ) tiffs, but not for large images like screen shots. What it does do, it does well and in a four cube manner. But it is missing some useful features, and has a limited tool set (no undo, no flipping, rotating, mirroring, etc).

Sunrise Drive #435 (602) 529-1135 (602) 229-9133 fax info@pri.com You can grab a demo of this from orst or nova. It has a few quirks, but other than that is probably the closest equal to Icon. It has a tool set that not only contains all of the Icon features, but also goes beyond. It has a set of filters (which I think has an API (not sure though)), almost all the tools have an inspector that allows you to fine tune their action. Like Icon, it allows you to edit color images on a black and white machine. It does have some quirks, and can be slow sometimes, but these are easy to accept in comparisson to the rest of the package. In addition to all this it uses most the NeXTSTEP 3.0 goodies set.

I'd suggest going with POP since it's publicly available. You do need to install the POP daemon on the NeXT. There are versions available for the NeXT that can just be compiled and will work. By default it will get its mail out of /usr/spool/mail. I have a version that will retrieve the mail out of ~/Mailboxes/Active.mbox instead. We use a Sun mail server so I mount the mail dir. What I wanted to be able to do is receive the mail on my NeXT, but easily get it over to my Mac if it had Mac attachments. Anyway, it's not that hard.

From: labwm@slab.cc.emory.edu (William Morse) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc,comp.sys.next.hardware Subject: ALR Evolution V Review (Part I) (LONG) Message-ID: <4990@emoryu1.cc.emory.edu> Date: 16 Sep 93 14:57:21 GMT Sender: news@emory.edu Followup-To: comp.sys.next.misc INTRO: This is Part I of a planned two part review of ALR and their new Pentium computer, the Evolution V. This part will focus on ALR itself and specifically examine their customer service and technical support. Why bother to review this? Because I firmly believe that how the company behaves towards you, as a customer, is at least as important as how the hardware behaves once you get it. After all, you may very well be dealing with them for the life of your computer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IN SHORT: My experience with ALR (the company) has been almost a nightmare. Without a doubt, this company is the most unprofessional "I don't care" company I have ever dealt with. They made mistakes in my order and told me outright that they weren't going to do a thing about it. This despite the fact that I stood to lose a significant amount of money because of their error. Anyway, it was very apparent that they care much more about corporate accounts and not individual buyers. They have been losing money lately and, after my experience with them, it is easy to see why. My dealings with FastMicro seemed like a walk through the park in comparison. If you want an ALR Evolution V (which is a good computer, by the way) then buy it through a VAR like Alpine or one in your local city. Unlike ALR, these people probably will care about you and won't make mistakes. You may pay a little bit more, but believe me, it will be worth it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REVIEW: I will review ALR's customer service through a narrative. But first, a little background on me: I am not a demanding or "nasty" customer. I realize that there are delays, etc. For example, when FastMicro was a month late with a computer I ordered a few years ago, it did not bother me much... I expected it. They told me they would call when they actually sent it out and they did. But, what happened with ALR was very different. Anyway, I am a Consultant for Emory University's Information Technology Division. I am aware of nasty folks and I don't like 'em. Thus, I don't act like that myself. What I needed this computer for was to supplement my NeXTStation Turbo for a legal project I am working on. I am a 3L at Emory Law so I don't have "tons" of cash... Anyway, here is the story of my purchase of an Evolution V Pentium. ----- I ordered an Evolution VQ at the end of July. I had already spoken to their tech. support folks about NeXTStep and they are fairly knowledgeable about the product. They told me that they had managed to boot NS on both their Evolution V and VQ. They also told me that some of cards they tried did not work and it took a bit of "tweaking" to find a card combo that worked. I was impressed. When I had contacted Dell and Compaq, their sales folks had no idea what NS was and only Dell could connect me to someone who at least knew of NS. But, ALR was different. The sales rep. was knowledgeable and connected me right away to tech. support. There, the engineers walked me through both their torment and eventual success in getting NS to install. I ordered a VQ two days later after reviewing the faxed specs. One thing bothered me, though. Both the sales rep. and the tech. people kept pushing the Evolution V desktop. In fact, they bent over BACKWARDS trying to get me to purchase that machine. When I said no... that I wanted a VQ, they actually got *offended.* I chalked it up to the fact that they did not have the 66 Mhz Pentium chips yet... so my order could not be presently processed. I knew that ALR did not have 66 Mhz Pentiums at the time I placed my order. however. The sales rep. had been quite clear that he did not know when the chips would arrive... But, he did speculate that the machine would be in my hands by the end of September. That was fine with me. I did tell him to call as soon as the machine shipped... and he said he would. Indeed, I STRESSED the fact that he should call... and I told him why. The reasons were: 1) I was paying COD and had to cut the cashiers check; and, 2) I was not buying any of the support cards from ALR. I wanted them ordered at the time the machine shipped so that I would have the maximum 30 days return period to test everything out. (All the support cards came to about 1/3 the price of the machine.) If any of the cards didn't work or I couldn't get the computer to boot... I could return everything from where it came. I was surprised when, 1 week later, a woman from ALR's shipping department called saying they were going to ship the computer within one day. To make sure everything was right, I had her read back the order. It was correct - VQ/66. Thinking back, the salesrep had said the chips (66 Pentiums) could be in any day... so I accepted it. I ordered all the cards and cut the check. Much to my surprise, the machine did not arrive on the anticipated day. I called ALR. After about two hours, I reached my sales rep. He said he would call me back. He never did. I called him 2 hours later and waited another 30 minutes on the phone. When I got in touch with him... he said that nothing was shipped and the VQ/66 was due in one month. He said that there had been an error in the shipping department. I was a bit shocked... so I explained that I had already bought the cards (they had all arrived) and cut a check. I told him my 30 day clock was ticking. He said he would call right back and he would correct the situation. At this point, I was not angry. He had given me excellent service before... why would thing change now. Unfortunately, they did. The sales rep. never called back. I called him and he said, "oh... I forgot. I told my boss about you though. He should call you back within 30 minutes." So, I waited... another 2 hrs with no phone call. I called back and the sales rep. said... "Sorry, time for me to go home. I will talk to you tomorrow." I asked for the boss's name and the sales rep. gave it to me. I then called the boss. The man had no idea who I was. I told him my story. He said he was "sorry about that" and that the VQ/66 would arrive here at the end of Sept. If I wanted, I could take an Evolution V. He gave me a sales pitch. I said I wanted a VQ/66 and offered three suggestions. 1) They could get a Pentium 66 and send me the VQ/66 now. I told him that I did not expect ALR to do that and he said, "Good, because ALR won't." 2) I next suggested him guaranteeing to accept a return of the cards I bought if they did not work. ALR carried all of them so I thought this was at least a possibility... but he said, "Strike two." 3) I next suggested what I thought was the best solution. Send me a VQ/60 and then swap motherboards with the VQ/66 when the chips arrive. He said, "That would be too much trouble with serial numbers. I won't do that." I told him I could go to another vender. He laughed at me and said, "Good luck. You won't be able to find another Pentium anywhere except from us." Unfortunately, he was right too. I had already tried. Plus, no other Pentium had a VL-Bus... which the ATI card required. I told him that as a consultant with Emory U., I had power to recommend or not recommend products and I wanted to recommend his, but... He interrupted me and said, "What's Emory? I don't care." I mentioned that I was very involved with the NeXT community both here in Atlanta and on the Internet. He said, "We got the NeXT community cold. They trust us. We got corporations lining up to buy from us. No one is going to listen to you." I told him he had an obligation to make things right - the world "legal" was never used. (Actually, he did use it. The concept is known as "reliance" in contracts. I relied on ALR's promise of delivery and they failed to deliver.) He became *irate* and said "Sue me, I dare you." He used profanity with ease. At this point, I became angry. As a trained soon-to-be-lawyer, I try never to loose my cool. And, I didn't either... I just let my roommate finish the conversation. I left the room. In all my years, I had NEVER been treated by a computer company this way. But, he was right: they had me. No other Pentium was available for at least two months. No other Pentium had a VL-Bus... So, my choices were: a) send back all cards with a 15% loss, b) keep the cards I could and only send back the $500 ATI with a 15% loss and take my chances with the rest, or c) order from ALR and get a lesser computer than I ordered... I chose c. I did not have the money to play the high ground. But, I ordered the Evolution V instead of the VQ. Why? The VQ was a $2000 premium over the V. Unfortunately, my torment was not over. It took me 4 hours to get through to my sales rep. I thought this time delay most strange. When I was ordering, I was always patched right through... but now? I told him *very politely* to send me the V and everything would be ok. He said he would get a quote and call me back. I asked for next day air. He said he would give me that for free. Things were looking up. But, he did not call me back. So, 2 hours later I called him. He said that he could have it to me no later than... Monday or Tuesday. It was a Friday and that was fine. He told me the price. I went and recut the check. On Monday, the computer did not arrive. On Tuesday, it did not arrive. I called. I was passed to customer service. They said that they had sent it ground on Tuesday and that it would be here in one week.. maybe Wed. next week. I was further told that, "You have to understand, big accounts come first." It had now been 2 full weeks since the VQ was due to have arrived. I could not believe this. Knowing that sugar is always better, I told her nicely to accelerate the package and I asked for the shipping number. She didn't give me the number and she said she would call me back. She also told me that acceleration would "cost extra." I told her, "No, it won't." She did not call me back. So, 45 minutes later I called her. She said the computer would be here on Thursday. It was Tuesday so I had to live with that. I called the shipping company myself and they said no one from ALR had called and no acceleration was done. I again called ALR and, while I waited, she did it. The package arrived on Friday. *After reading this over, I can tell you that this narrative does not come close to conveying what it was like to deal with ALR. I only hope this saves some of you the torture I went through. If you must buy an ALR, use a VAR! END OF PART I. LOOK FOR A TECHNICAL REVIEW SHORTLY.

I was very impressed. (It made me a little happier (just slightly) after my earlier experience (see Part I)). Unfortunately, the machine is somewhat quirky with NS and there are some nasty traps which can trip you up. But, once configured correctly, NS will run smooth and fast. In short, a very good NS system, but for a price. (see Part I and below.) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The case is small and handsome. It looks *much* better in real life than it does in the pictures ALR sends you or in their ads in PC WEEK. The quality continues on inside the case where all the cables are neatly tied together and out of your way. The case is very open and installing cards is easy, most of the time. The motherboard is of decent quality. It is surface mounted (of course) and the mount points are clean. ALR made one error and did not place the board in properly causing some slight warping during their burn in period. I reseated the board and have suffered no ill effects. One unfortunate aspect of the motherboard, however, is that there are "open spots" where optional ICs could be. These "open spots" represent the optional ethernet (not NS supported anyway) and extra cache memory. Unfortunately, these "spots" are not socketed. So, once you select your options from ALR, you better be prepared to stick with 'em. (Indeed, if any chips do fail, the motherboard will have to be factory repaired.) The motherboard can take 128meg in four 72 pin SIMM slots. I ordered two 16 meg. 70 NS SIMMS to make a total of 32 meg. This left two slots open. The SIMM slots are wide apart and make for easy access. The card slots are a little tight... especially the last ISA slot. I was unable to align a card properly so that I could screw it in that slot. The case is just a *wee* bit off. The card does have a tight fit, anyway, so I don't feel too bad about leaving out a screw. The Pentium itself sits under one of the computer's dual fans keeping it cool. However, when the case is on, the whole computer radiates heat. It is not too hot, but it is warm. The case itself has room for 2 half height drives and an extra 3.5 Hard drive in the back. There is also another area where a 3.5 floppy is mounted. I personally installed 2 3.5 inch IDE hard drives. One was a 210 Meg. Western Digital IDE and the other was a 170 Meg Conner IDE. I attached them both to the Multus controller (more on this later.) I used my NeXT CD-ROM drive and an Adaptec 1542(c) SCSI card to install NS. Also in the computer is a Pro Audio Studio 16 and an SMC ELITE 16 ether card. For graphics, I use the flawed ATI Ultra Pro VL w/ 2 meg. of ram. First thing I did was attach the CD-ROM, set it to 0 and pop in the floppy. And... it locked after the second SCSI reset. Nothing I did could fix that. Now, I knew that was going to happen. I had read other's complaints on the net. So, I installed NS/FIP onto my 200meg. WD IDE previously from another computer that would work. I figured (bet... hoped!) that the problem was just the boot floppy... So, I booted up straight from the IDE... it just worked. So, that is how I got NS to use the Multus IDE controller. Clever huh? :) Some extra notes about HD: be sure and set up the IDE drives in bios FIRST. Otherwise, the Adaptec card... takes over. A word to the wise: put in your cards in one step at a time. At this point, I only had the Adaptec and the ATI plugged in. I added the PAS-16 and SMC later. Now, I had built the disk to the boot-up point on the other machine. My next task was to select the devices and language. This I did. I restarted and... it booted fine - almost. I formated my other IDE and mounted it. (See sysadmin. guide for how to perm. mount a device. You will want to perm. mount it.) I tested the CD-ROM and it worked great. Here is the nasty trick number 1: the parallel port's memory address on the ALR is not standard. So, your parallel driver will say "Port not there" and not install at boot up. You could simply deinstall that driver and forget about it, but that would be unwise. Why? The parallel port's address sits smack in the middle of the ATI's address range. ***YOU MUST EITHER MOVE THE ATI'S ADDRESS RANGE OR DISABLE THE PARALLEL PORT IN BIOS*** Otherwise, the ATI will act rather odd at times. One last thing: the parallel driver gives you a range of "addresses" where it thinks parallel ports should be. You cannot go beyond this range with out doing some hacking. I know how to do this hacking (I did it for the PAS-16) but I have simply (for now) diabled the parallel port. Why? I have no parallel printers and... I need IRQ 7. You will see why later. I added the SMC card and configured it. Please, use what NeXT wants you to use... on all cards if you can. It saves you headaches. Here is the nasty trick number 2: The sound card was more complex. I have an ISA bus. Because of that, DMA 5 on up are out. (See install sheet from NeXTAnswers). DMA 0 is also out. That leave 1-4. Unfortunately 2-4 are used (floppy et al) and 1 was not available as a choice in the driver set up. IRQ 7 was listed as open and with the parallel port gone, I selected it. I had run the PAS DMA and IRQ diag. program and it said DMA 1 and IRQ 7 were available and I had selected those. (I turned off Sound Blaster Support altogether. It is not needed or used.) So, what to do... hack the driver choices! WARNING: What I did was and is not NeXT approved. Do it at your own risk! Ok, if you look under /etc/drivers (or is it devices - I am away from my computer) you will see a list off all the Intel drivers. (You can get into the /etc with the Workspace if you select Unix File System under preferences.) Anyway, you open the picture of the PAS-16 as a folder. It lets you see the files inside. One of those files (there are three or four) has the setups in them. Look for one that says DMA "0 2 3 4 5 6..." and simply add a 1 between the 0 and the 2. When you log out and log back in and open the driver install program... 1 will be available! I selected it and my PAS-16 has worked like a charm ever since. I have not had one problem. Now, the parallel driver has the same "allowed setups" in its driver setup too. I suspect that if you moved the ATI's address and edited the parallel driver to allow you to use the ALR's parallel port address range... it would work as well. Since doing all this, the computer has worked like a charm. The WD is fast on the multus and the computer has proved rock solid. I get 55 VAX Mips from NXBench. I get graphics performance of about .75 of a NeXTStation Turbo Color. I intend to replace the ATI with an S3 based board or a Viper when they are supported. (The ATI has a bug in the firmware that inserts waitstates. The new cut of the board is better... I have the old one. See Sept. NeXTWORLD for more info.) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONCLUSION: Would I buy another ALR? No. Not ever. The company does not care about the little guy... like me. The HW is descent, but I suspect that pretty soon, Compaq and others will have HW out just as good and indeed... better. Do I like my computer? Yes... very much. But, it is not the computer I wanted. However, I am happy with it. If you want one... call a VAR like Alpine. (I do not work for or have any connection to Alpine or any other VAR). I hope this has been helpful!

Star Nine is one of the vendors which is known to be distributing broken SMTP implementations. I forget the exact details, but I remember them as doing something egregiously bad and not being terribly responsive towards fixing it. What's more, it's completely unnecessary to go the route of proprietary email technologies. You can get Mailstrom from the SUMEX-AIM archives as a Mac client, and use the IMAP toolkit from ftp.cac.washington.edu (mail/imap.tar.Z) on the NeXT as the server for Mailstrom. Alternatively, you can get a copy of Eudora and use any of a number of POP servers (including the POP servers in the IMAP toolkit and popper from Berkeley). You may have to pay something for the current commercial version of Eudora, but there's also an older freeware version. The less you slide down the slippery slope of proprietary standards, the happier you will be. You won't have to modify sendmail.cf on the NeXTs at all and you won't have non-Internet mail protocols on your network.

Not every user can or wants to become root to install your software (even your demos!) Some users already have /usr/lib/X11, /usr/bin/X11, etc., set up, using the latest and greatest free from MIT -- why do you insist on unconditionally overwriting these directories? Sometimes, all that is needed is the X server, its data files, and a window manager as a local client (and even maybe not the last -- but its nice for performance reasons). An installation option that was closer to an ordinary NEXTSTEP app would be much appreciated for this case. Why can't the X server get its data files out of the .app folder, like every other app? For those who do want NEXTSTEP compiled local clients or X development pieces, an option to install in a user definable location would be great. Putting stuff in /usr is usually inconvenient or impossible at large sites where /usr is shared, or where old versions must be maintained until new versions can be validated for general use.

Please send all replies by email (tenny@symbolics.com) or phone (508-287-1338). The goal here is to move to a PC platform (NeXT's future), for the least cost. NeXT has been very unsupportive in this endeavor (sure, my small business is small potatoes, but surely I'm not the only person migrating from Black hardware...)

I've invested heaps of money maintaining upgrades and functionality on this machine. It's running NeXTStep 3.0, works perfectly. I'm moving to an Intel platform however and need to recoup some of my investment. Price: $3000 or what the market will bear. Two - Buying a NeXTStep Intel License & software distribution I'm looking for an inexpensive NeXTStep license and distribution kit. Maybe one of those NeXTExpo licenses. If you've got one to sell, please contact me. Three - Intel NeXTStep migration war stories If any has any sugggestions about what NOT to buy w.r.t PC hardware for NeXTStep, please let me know. I'm planning on a machine running NS & NT. Four - High performance PC platforms for NS. I'm looking at a 32 MB, 1 Gig 80406 DX2 66 Mhz platform. I'm planning on an ATI Ultra Pro w/2MB vram, since neither NS nor NT support the Diamond Viper at high resolutions (which is what every direct market vendor is pushing these days). Is the ATI workable or hideous for NS? Is there a better alternative which runs on most third party (cheap) platforms? I'm not buying any Dell or other NeXTStep certified (and more expensive) machines. I've found some direct market outfits which will vouch for NeXTStep running on their machines in writing. Perhaps the most confusing thing for me, as a non-PC wizard, is whether I should get a VL-bus SCSI adapter, or an EISA SCSI adapter. I want a high throughput disk system. Any suggestions on what to do, or not to do? Five - Soapbox (Skip this if you don't like NeXT flaming) Frankly, I feel screwed by NeXT. I understand and applaud their move to a software only business. What I'm unhappy about is that they have given me no reasonable (low cost) options for transitioning my investments in their technology. When NeXT upgraded to the 68040, they provided a reasonable upgrade. When they required an external floppy, it was expensive, but not unbearable. When they required an optical drive, (I already HAD a magneto optical drive, which they decline now to support) I paid the $700 for NS upgrade and Sony drive. Damn near robbery, but still bearable. Now they want me to spend $2700 on a new license, when, since my Cube is essentially a dead end, a license migration path is really in order. I've called and called. All inquiries have failed to get an alternative migration path from NeXT. Buying the $299 introductory kit doesn't help, there are no upgrades. They refuse to commit to something like "Well, use your Cube upgrades on the Intel Trial Offer base", as a valid strategy. Face it, NeXT hardware is a dead end. Sure, NeXT hardware will be supported through 1997, and software into 1995 (which isn't far, at the rate it now takes NeXT to do a software release lately). But Cube peripherals will only get more expensive, and Cube software more sparse (even with "FAT" binaries). Anyway, the fact that I feel the black hardware is a dead end is why I'm moving to PC's now. I've never owned one before (deliberately avoided them in fact). But there are just too many compelling reasons to buy one now. Since NeXT declines to "do the right thing" this time, I'm either going to find that low cost NeXTStep migration, or I'm going to bail out altogether. I'd sooner write an Objc->C++ translater or port the GNU software to Windows NT. After spending another (and unplanned) $6K for hardware, $2.7K for NS isn't going to cut it since NeXT is essentially *forcing* me to migrate. If anybody has clues on how to move to Intel less expensively (w.r.t. NS licensing), please let me know. If you want to pool resources on a GNU port to Windows NT and some Objc translation technology, let me know. I do compilers for a living, and if NeXT isn't part of my solution any longer, then they're part of my problem. Besides, the FSF already has a lot of the work done on the Objective-C runtime libraries. My particular application (65,000 lines of Objc code) doesn't use the NS libraries much, only the compiler and debugging environment. Unfortunately, porting my code would set back my product release date considerably, which is why I'd rather migrate to NS on Intel inexpensively, rather than give up NS altogether. But if NeXT doesn't start giving me some customer satisfaction instead of the runaround and unreasonable costs, then I'm getting out of NeXT land. I have the future of my business to consider, and lately, NeXT isn't making me particularly happy as a (appropriately priced) solutions provider. All inquiries for sales, purchases, and general hints to help a fellow NeXT user are welcome, but please remember that I can't read the conference. Thanks.

Before this blessed event occurs, I thought I'd solicit advice from the networld as to the best way to accomplish this task. The configuration is pretty basic: standard mono NeXTstation, NS 3.0, soon to be 3.1 or 3.2, running a high speed modem/SLIP connection on serial port A, and a "beater" modem on serial B which is used just for dialing phone numbers out of SBook. The powerbook will be hauled around, and plugged into the station once or twice per day to move and or print files, and perhaps to telnet out while the SLIP connection is up. What's the best way to do this? Through one of the serial ports? (I could get rid of the beater modem fairly easily) Is it okay to plug into the serial port while the NeXT is up? Is there any particularly useful software to get for either the NeXT or the Mac end of things? Any and all suggestions welcome. Thanx in advance --- Tom -- Dr. Thomas L.

Does this mean there's an NS version (or at least a version that runs on NS) of Limdep? I'd be very interested in it if it exists.

Message-ID: <CDIx8x.ByA@utstat.toronto.edu> Organization: University of Toronto, Dept. of Statistics Date: Sat, 18 Sep 1993 00:26:56 GMT This is an ongoing problem. I have a NeXT on an Appletalk network and I own both uShare and Partner from IPT. uShare sets up the NeXT as an AppleShare server, allows one to print ( if you have uPrint) to an Appletalk printer- and allows a Mac to print to a NeXT printer- and Partner is supposed to allow printing from a NeXT to an Appletalk printer ( ths it does great) and allow a NeXT to mount an AFP volume from an AppleShare server ( or a mac publishing a volume under system 7.x). I have been able to get Partner to print to a printer ( which I already could do in any case) but mounting of an AFP volume fails. One possible reason why mounting an AFP volume from a Mac fails may be that Partner apparently uses NFS to set up mount points. I have the NeXT set up as a standalone computer and have tried every "simple" approach to setting it up as an NFS thing- I simply have no knowledge of NFS/NetInfo. Has anyone encountered this situation? In either case, how would one set up a NeXT so that it could mount volumes via NFS ( and vice versa). I clearly don't want to be a client of an NFS host as there are no NFS computers on the network.

Date: 19 Sep 1993 00:52:30 GMT Organization: California Institute of Technology, Pasadena Distribution: world Message-ID: <27gagfINNlst@gap.caltech.edu> Hello, I play a fair number of (non-computerized) wargames (strategic and tactical level simulations of combat), and I have often daydreamed about creating a generic, distributed-object based client-server system for playing these. Using DO and DPS allows for all sorts of possibilities. The idea would be to create a simple kernel, then protocols for various pieces to communicate with each other. By making use of subclasses and the Objective-C runtime, it should be possible to represent arbitrarily complex combat mechanisms fairly simply. It should be also be straightforward to define pieces with various levels of intelligence, including complete 'players'. I have a fair amount of experience in creating Object hierarchies (though I need to brush up on DO and protocols). I have a friend who is an avid game player and 'game theorist' of a sort. What I really need is a User Interface specialist who plays wargames, to determine what the client side of things would look like. I certainly welcome brainstormers; I'll call for beta testers much later... The project is tentatively called ICP 'Inspected Continous Play', and the goal is to produce a WarGameKit, with perhaps some simple but interesting examples that could be released to the public domain. We will assume NeXTSTEP as a given - I don't even want to consider X or C++ implementations (although we will almost certainly use ObjC++). I have so many other committments, I have no idea when this will happen, but I figure it will be fun to talk about it regardless. Excelsior, - Ernie P. -- Ernest N.

We just want to play games. Xox on steroids. :-) Thanks for playing, Don. :-) But and I *both* know how "good them demo games on the SGI is." What I want to see is SGI and NeXT teaming together. They're both niche players that are trying to move into the mainstream. And they both have technological advantages that the other doesn't have and won't have probably forever. We've got to stop bickering amongst ourselves and hit Microsoft before it clobbers the UNIX market (and in our current state of retreat, it's very probable--don't EVER underestimate them).

Much as I, and many others, love the idea, the harsh reality is SGI's small installed base. Sure, SGI gets a lot of revenue from each system sold, but NeXT needs volume now to make money. If NeXT ported to SGI's, they'd be right back where they were during the black hardware days (sales-wise). Unless, and this would be critical, the actual job of porting to Mips architecture is very easy. (Maybe NeXT will learn some new shortcuts working with HP that will make each additional architecture port less of a task). The one thing I can think of that would simplify an SGI port is the relatively consistent (and high quality) hardware involved. Oh, well.

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.)

The top story is "Novell taps Unix": ``Novell, Inc. is expected this week to outline a strategy for dominating the corporate distributed computing market by hitching together its two system software platforms, NetWare and UnixWare. `` `The intent will not be to announce fundamental new products, [but to] describe the relationship of Unix System V Release 4, UnixWare and NetWare and [to answer] a whole slew of integration questions...' said Bob Davis, vice president of Novell's Unix Systems Group.'' Essentially, the story deals with how Novell will more tightly integrate NetWare and UnixWare, including such niceties as coupling NetWare's directory services and message handling services into UnixWare. And here's the big news: From a page 14 story "Novell may give Unix to X/Open": ``Reports swirled through the Unix industry last week that Novell, Inc. will bow to pressure from its major Unix OEM customers and turn over its Unix interface specification and brand name to X/Open Co., the UK-based Unix standards body. ``The move will let Hewlett-Packard Co., Sun Microsystems, Inc. and IBM to continue buying Unix from Novell without the fear of Novell making the system proprietary. ``The most immediate effect of handing the Unix trademark over to X/Open would be price cuts in the major versions of Unix such as Sun's Solaris, IBM's AIX and HP's HP/UX, industry sources said. With royalty-free access to Unix, vendors would no longer have to pay Novell for the right to use the Unix name.'' `` `This is Novell's trump card to get the fractious computer industry to rally begind Unix and Novell's volume Unix strategy - to wit, UnixWare,'' said Maureen O'Gara, publisher of the "Unigram-X" weekly newsletter, which first reported the Novell activities last week.'' Overall, I can't think of better news to receive on the Unix situation. The release of the Unix interface spec to X/Open will, I believe, go a long way toward alleviating the fears that Novell will either try to take Unix proprietary, or might let it languish in some confined role. I feel quite confident that Novell will take an active role in encouraging the unification of Unix under the SVR4 banner - does anyone _really_ think that UnixWare and Solaris x86 are going to be direct competitors? As with the COSE deal, NeXT is once again out of the picture. NeXT has some useful technologies (but dwindling in value with time) that are needed more by the Unix world than any other platform, but NeXT doggedly insists that it's Steve's way or no way. It's floptical deja vu all over again. NeXT still has a chance to jump on the SVR4 bandwagon, but I have a feeling that a foolish pride will goeth before their fall.

Well, whenever I've cold-booted (like when powering up), I've noticed that it boots to whatever partition is listed as the active partition under DOS FDISK. This is the right way to do it, I think. When I've warm-booted, it uses some arcane ritual involving the phase of the moon to figure out which partition to boot. Heh, I've removed NS/FIP from my system (with only 8M RAM it's just not worth it for me to use it), but I'm keeping the boot manager on there because it's pretty good for choosing between DOS and Linux. -- Doug DeJulio ddj+@cmu.edu

Keywords: PCI, expansion bus, SCSI support, driver support Message-ID: <6840@darmstadt.gmd.de> Date: 21 Sep 93 22:03:57 GMT Sender: hoff@darmstadt.gmd.de Organization: German National Research Centre for Information Technology Hello NeXT world! In issue 10 of the german computer magazine "c't" there are reviews of various PCI motherboards and graphic cards which are starting to appear in the wonderful world of PC hardware (a.k.a 'Clone Zone' :-). These boards _really_ look promising, both in price and esp. in performance (the PCI bus is easily about 30-50% faster than VLB). Since many of these PCI boards already contain a good SCSI adapter (NCR 53C810 PT), my question is simply if NeXTSTEP 3.2 will support this hardware or not. Does anybody know how difficult it is to write PCI drivers ? Any announcements from hardware manufacturers ? It would be a real shame if NS 3.2 wouldn't run (fly :-) on such a PCI clone only because the drivers for SCSI or the (wicked fast) PCI graphic boards are missing.. Please say it will be so! Pleeease! I have that money _now_ and since I have seen NS on the GUUG (Unix Expo) here in Germany last week, I'm totally hooked..what a beautyful system! (I've avoided INTeL hardware for the last few years (they forced me to do x86 assembly in the university! *blush*), but NS and PCI are the best reasons to give those zombies a second chance :-) Holger -- /// Holger 'Holgi' Hoffstaette, aka: hoff@darmstadt.gmd.de /// German National Research Centre for Information Technology \\\/// Integrated Publishing & Information Systems Institute / PaVE \XX/ 'I'm gonna get myself connected..' - Stereo MC's

Sadly, I am afraid this is the case. Just as SGI considers NeXTSTEP a software lightweight, NeXT considers (with somewhat good cause) the R4000 not a major chip contender. Market droids can sometimes miss obvious advantages of a product, concentrating instead on sheer volume. My kinda-informed prediction for emerging NeXTSTEP platforms in the near future (in order): 1 HP PA/RISC (definitely coming) 2 SPARC (known to be in the works) 3 POWERPC (widely rumored--but just rumored) ...say, does anyone note a tendency to go all-caps in chip names these days? :-) __________________________________________________________________ Sean Luke MILK: It Comes From Cows Brigham Young University sean@digaudio.byu.edu NeXTmail now welcome :-) __________________________________________________________________

I occasionally have multiple background processes going...not too often, but I don't consciously avoid it. I usually leave the CD-ROM powered down, but I use it fairly heavily when Electronic AppWrapper comes out, and I've never had a problem. I am using an Adaptec 1542B on an ISA bus in a Dell 450/L. The disk is a Quantum 700LPS. I have never had a crash that I couldn't attribute to the old serial driver. Since updating that, I have yet to crash, just the occasional reboot to Windows :-(.

The SGI has some wonderful graphics capabilities that you are obviously referring to but some people fail to realize that HP's graphics is about the the same speed and quality. The two companies have been competing in the accelerated-graphics arena for many years and both have been ahead at one time or another. The place where SGI has won perhaps more often that not is in marketing and general awareness. We'll have to see how much leverage comes from the HP graphics systems on the HP port of NeXTSTEP. ________________________________________________________________ __ Dan Schmidt DGS&A, Inc. -- A software consulting services company dschmidt@NeXT.com ________________________________________________________________ __ -- NewsGrazer, a NeXTstep(tm) news reader, posting -- M>UQR=&8P7&%N<VE[7&9O;G1T8FQ<9C!<9G-W:7-S($AE;'9E=&EC83M]"EQM M87)G;#$R,`I<;6%R9W(Q,C`*7'!A<F1<='@T-#1<='@X.#E<='@Q,S,T7'1X M,3<W.5QT>#(R,C-<='@R-C8X7'1X,S$Q,UQT>#,U-3A<='@T,#`S7'1X-#0T M-UQF,%QB,%QI,%QU;&YO;F5<9G,R,%QF8S!<8V8P($EN(&%R=&EC;&4@/#$Y M.3-397`Q.2XR,#0W,S$N,C<S-$!Y=F%X+F)Y=2YE9'4^("!W<FET97,Z7`H^ M($EN(&%R=&EC;&4@/'(R)$!B>74N961U/EP*/B!Y86-K9$!O<F5G;VXN970N M8GEU+F5D=2`H1&]N(%EA8VMT;6%N*2!W<FET97,Z7`H^(%P*/B`^(%P*/B`^ M($EN(&%R=&EC;&4@/$-$.4%-=BXW,T%`8W!S8RYU8V%L9V%R>2YC83XL(&AI M;&Q`8W!S8RYU8V%L9V%R>2YC82`H1&%V:60@2&EL;"D@=W)I=&5S.EP*/B`^ M(%P*/B`^(#Y)="!W;W5L9"!B92!I;G1E<F5S=&EN9R!T;R!K;F]W(&IU<W0@ M=VAA="!T:&4@<')O=&%G;VYI<W1S(&EN('1H:7,@9&5B871E7`H^(#X@/F%C M='5A;&QY('=A;G0@=&\@9&\@;VX@=&AE:7(@26YD>2UW:71H+4ER:7@@=F5R M<W5S($EN9'DM=VET:"U.4RX@($E<"CX@/B`^=V]U;&0@9W5E<R!T:&%T($EN M9'DM=VET:"U.4R!W;W5L9"!B92!P<F5F97)A8FQE(&9O<B`B<F5A;"(@6R`X M7BE=7`H^(#X@/F1E=F5L;W!M96YT(&]F('-E<FEO=7,@6R`X7BE=(&-U<W1O M;2!S;V9T=V%R92P@:68@<')O9'5C=&EV:71Y(&%N9%P*/B`^(#YE>&-E;&QE M;F-E('=E<F4@8F]T:"!I<W-U97,N7`H^(#X@7`H^(#X@3V@L(&YO+B`@5V4@ M:G5S="!W86YT('1O('!L87D@9V%M97,N("!8;W@@;VX@<W1E<F]I9',N(#HM M*5P*/B!<"CX@5&AA;FMS(&9O<B!P;&%Y:6YG+"!$;VXN("`Z+2D@(%P*/B!"

I think this is smart. COSE may become a standard interface, but so what? It's my understanding that Far more important to me than COSE compliance is that 1) NeXT's comply with object standards to retain compatibility and mindshare in the coming object wars; 2) NeXT continue to refine its object library and add significant technology (like an object-oriented file system) to keep it superior to other vendors' future offerings; 3) NeXT maintain superior integration of its object kits with its tools; and 4) NeXT generalize NEXTSTEP to run on whatever OSes become popular in the next few years. The Novell competitor I'm concerned about is AppWare, not COSE. AppWare has some RAD capabilities and has a greater potential to become a standard RAD toolkit due to the combination of its acceptable performance in the RAD market and its cross-platform compatibility. I know at least one big company using NEXTSTEP as a RAD/cross-platform tool that is considering dropping it in favor of AppWare, and I'm sure others may follow. The solution for NeXT is to cut NEXTSTEP loose from Unix and port it to whatever OSes become popular in the next few years. But that's a big job, and sales from NS/I and NS/PS-RISC will have to pave the way. Time will of course tell. /Kris -- Kris Magnusson <kris@magnusson.uucp> Alpine Computing NeXT sales/SLaNG --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ``It's a Unix system!

May I make two observations: 1) Lotus' acquisition of their language does indeed set a dangerous precedent. All of us could be using an illegal compiler because AT&T owns the copyright to both the C and C++ languages. Adobe could go after other companies for making PostScript interpreters. The only truly safe language would be Xbase, since Dbase lost its day in court. 2) I have to disagree with your take on the judgement as violating your freedom of expression, because the only thing computer languages and natural language have in common in that they both use the word "language". A natural language is a method of expression. A computer language describes a process by which some action is carried out. The decision does not prevent us from writing our action down using this process, only in performing the action using the process. In other words, it doesn't prevent writing 1-2-3 programs, only in interpreting them. Processes can be patented quite nicely. Likewise,the BNF of a language (which is essentially the process by which programs written in that language are carried out) can be patentable. I suggest a possible alternate way to attack the decision is that the 1-2-3 macro language (and C, and C++, and PostScript) was *copyrighted* but not *patented* (I think). Coppyright protects freedom of expression, but not the integrity of a process--that's a patent's job. And since the language is used in the public domain, it can no longer be patented. Hence, it should be legal to use the language. (Yeah, here I am, mister big law-expert :-) ) Anyway, it's an idea. __________________________________________________________________ Sean Luke MILK: It Comes From Cows Brigham Young University sean@digaudio.byu.edu NeXTmail now welcome :-) __________________________________________________________________

A natural language is a method of expression. > A computer language describes a process by which some action is carried > out. This is not true. Or, at least, it is not entirely true :-) Computer languages do describe the process by which some action is carried out. But, they do much much *much* MUCH more. Witness the recent proliferation of "Object-Oriented" languages. OO languages do not offer more "computational power" than other ones. What they offer is a different perspective on traditional programming tasks. A new way of looking at problems and new ways of solving problems. In short, what language we use affects our thinking processes (and our ways of solving problems) to a huge degree. Much the same thing happens when you start to think in foreign languages. Even though the languages have the same "communicative ability", your whole "mental map" changes and you think about things in a slightly different way (okay: you think about some things in a different way. Nobody ever gains a new perspective on "milk" when they learn to speak French). Blahblahblah. I have no idea what this has to do with freedom of expression (in fact, I'm perfectly comfortable with the Lotus decision), but I think it's important that people realise how much their choice of a programming language affects the eventual solution.

Well, Adobe says it has the Copyright for the "list of operators and the written specification for Adobe's PostScript language." But they specifically "give permission to [...] write software to interpret programs written in the PostScript language [and] copy Adobe's copyrighted list of commands to the extent necessary to use the PostScript language for the above purpose" (as well as for writing programs in it...). This is a change from earlier policy, outlined in the Level 2 reference manual (red book.) Marcel

What should I do? Would it help to run the upgrade.app a second time, this time selecting the external disk for upgrade (although it is NOT the book disk and it only has some system directories on it)???

There's a whopping-big difference between having access to the Unix *name* and access to the Unix *code*. If vendors have been paying a separate license fee to use the Unix trademark and that fee disappears, the cost of Unix could come down, but I doubt such a fee - if it exists at all - ever amounted to much.

Double-clicking will bring up a sort of specialized workspace view which displays names and group instead of files and folders. These have content inspectors which allow you to keep an address book. The icons follow the standard move/copy paradigm. DANGER: I've had some problems trashing names when trying to link them to group entries. It's a neat start, but it's not clear to me where it goes. Is the Workspace extensible so I can create my own hierarchical concepts and manipulate them with a browser/inspector paradigm? Is there a protocol to allow me to reference the address book from Fax programs or word processors? I don't know.

The problem that you see is that bitmapped graphics are stretched and truncated on the right edge, or have discontinuities running the length of the long axis of the plot. The problem appears when the long axis of the plot, as measured in pixels, is oriented in same direction as the long axis direction of the paper. Thus the problem can be seen either in landscape mode or portrait mode, depending on the plot. I have confirmed with NeXT that this is a bona fide bug. They say that it is fixed in OS 3.2. Their suggestion: 1) downgrade printer servers to 3.0 2) wait for 3.2, which is due to be released sometime between now and December. They don't have a workaround. :-( Hope this helps.

I am curious whether anyone would be interested in purchasing a device to convert digital audio from a CD player's digital outputs to the NeXT's DSP format, for recording through the DSP port. This would allow you to record digital audio from a CD player or DAT deck, at any sampling rate from 32 to 50kHz. The basic concept would be a little box with a cable to the DSP port and a jack for a fiber optic or coaxial digital cable. The cost would be somewhere around $100. I'm not sure if such a device already exists commercially. I've just worked out the design for this and am in the initial stages of prototyping it. It is based on the Crystal Semiconductor CS8412. This was initially intended as just for my own use, but I realized that other people might be interested in it as well. By the way, if anyone has questions on the 8412 or the other chips in that family (the 8401, 8402, and 8411), I have done quite a bit of research into them and related stuff, so I can try to answer such questions. Anyway, I'm basically doing a feasability study for this idea. If I get at least ten people interested, I'll probably start building these in a month or two. Also, if anyone would prefer to build it themselves, I'd be happy to send a schematic and parts list; this is not some big commercial venture, but I thought it would be convenient for many people to buy such a device preassembled. 1. Would you be interested in buying one of these at the $100 price point? (All necessary hardware would be included except the digital audio cable, be it coax or optical.) Somewhat over half this price is parts, and the remainder would pay for my time in assembling it. 2. Would you want to use a coax input, optical input, or both? I might make them all with both, or I might make two models, one with optical and one with coax. The optical would probably be slightly more expensive. 3. Would you be interested in a "bag o' parts" including everything you would need to build this device, and my schematics, and some very rudimentary instructions, for about $70? 4. Would you be interested in just the schematics, parts list, and basic instructions, for just the cost of postage, or free over the net? Please note that some of these parts are rather difficult to obtain. Also, naturally, I cannot provide this until the prototype is built, tested, and working! Please feel free to provide any relevant feedback. -- Martin

Computer Languages do not express a process, that is, they do not express an algorithm, unless you wish to say that they (inherently) describe a process by which an algorithm may be expressed. It seems to me that this is analogous to saying that english inherently describes a process by which (some) ideas may be expressed. This would seem to be best captured, in both cases, by the concept of grammar, and a notion of expressive power. BNF, of course, is a way to specify a grammar. A computer language, until it is used by someone, does not itself express any algorithm explicitly. That is what programmers do. A programming language is the primary means by which a programmer expresses his or her ideas. Thus, I think one might frame the debate better by noting that it is a grammar and system of expression for which protection is being sought, and then asking what the resolution should be when this comes into conflict with the needs of people to express their ideas. Could one copyright or patent a natural language ? Having learned this language, what are my responsibilities, if any, to the holders of the patent or copyright ? Have they surrendered any of their rights to the language by permitting it to be published freely (if this is the case) and thus allowing me to learn the language ? What if I merely inferred the language by looking at examples, a sort of "clean room" approach ? I think there are some interesting questions to be resolved here. In practical terms, I think it would be an extremely detrimental precedent if the ruling is allowed to stand. -- -Michael

According to what we heard just last night from a NeXT representative at the Elm City NeXT Users Group meeting, 3.2 should be shipped some time in early October (i.e. just a couple of weeks). A demo version SoftPC will be included, but it will only work on white hardware. SoftPC will work some period of time (30 or 60 days, I can't remember the exact figure), and then you'll have to fork over cash to get a real version. They showed us the demo version of SoftPC. It reminded me how bad 486 software really is (not SoftPC, the stuff running on it). -- Jim Horne jhh@waldzell.physics.yale.edu "We Americans, we're a simple people... but piss us off, and we'll bomb your cities." -- Robin Williams

Internet Public Access Project Distribution: usa Date: Fri, 24 Sep 1993 14:15:43 GMT The community college which I attend is fortunate to have a physics lab with five NeXT Stations set up and networked. The problem is that none of the faculty have a clue on how to utilize them. Currently, I have taken charge of the mission to do so. (Sadly, the most common question asked of me is 'can it run DOS apps?') I think one of the best ways to use them is to do demonstrations. If the server could export windows to be displayed on the other four (which are dispersed throughout the lab), it would be an excellent way to show how to use software, etc. I seem to remember some mention of the NeXT having this capability, but I don't know where to begin. If anyone has set up such a window server, answers to the following questions would be much apprec: 1. Do I need to attain extra software to do so? If so, is it available on the Internet? 2. Can only one portion of the screen be exported over the Net? i.e. one window? 3. When such a system is in place is there a major delay in seeing the images on the clients? 4. Where can I find more info on setting up a window server? Any help would be much appreciated by myself as well as the clueless faculty members I am trying to assist.

NeXT did NOT vehemently oppose a SPARC port. They vehemently opposed a BUYOUT offer by Sun Microsystems that would inherently lead to a SPARC port. NeXT is not so stupid as to believe that having their software run on yet another platform would be BAD. The only thing that would prevent them from doing a port is that they are probably already too busy trying to improve the Intel port, while getting the HP port out the door by June. Sorry to clutter the sgi newsgroup with this one, but I wanted to clear up the common misconception. Eric

As someone purchasing machines, the only important issue to me is that I don't want to ever (again) be forced to buy hardware from a specific vendor because of an operating system or software choice made previously. The scenario is (1) you buy the most competetive combination at one point in time, (2) the vendor adds proprietary enhancements, (3) you develop something that takes advantage of them. Now you need to add or replace equipment. Do you throw away what you have developed or pay whatever that vendor wants for the new items? What we really need to make unix a sensible choice is a way to ensure that enhancements made on one platform will be available on the others, perhaps in the form of optional libraries.

RDP errors are a message that indicate that remote kernel debugging is enabled. They invariably follow a panic; telling your support person the RDP error code is very frustrating (for them). Always look back a few in the messages. In my experience with Intel systems, they have mostly been associated with network card problems of one sort or another; in general, suspect the hardware.

The San Jose Police Department has stated quite categorically that they released no such statement, and to their knowledge there has not been one reported case that this has happened. This message was originally posted to some e-mail networks, and has now spread to nearly every company in the valley, has been printed out and faxed all over, and now has apparently turned up on Usenet. :-) On the other hand, the SJPD now suggests that it *would* be a good idea not to flash your lights at other cars now, in case this fake announcement gives any gang members some *ideas* for a great new initiation rite...

Has anyone successfully built a Franz Allegro CL 3.1.20 image under NextStep 3.1? I am having problems. I just upgraded Nextstep 3.0 to 3.1 and noticed the patched version of Franz Allegro CL 3.1.20 I built that ran under Nextstep 3.0 would no longer work. So I rebuilt CL using the ucl.o and lib (e.g. libdsp.a) patches that worked for NS 3.0. That SEEMED to work at first but something is flaky - because when I rebuilt CommonMusic (basically a dumped lisp image) it no longer could successfully access libdsp.a. Now there are alot of things that could be going amiss here and, as the 3.0 patch suggested, the fix may be arcane. So I was wondering if anyone had got this to work and, if so, how? On a related note, where can I find an akcl that works (my 3.1 developer kit is backordered so unfortunatelt there is a limit to what I can do in this regard at the moment) And to think I was happily composing just yesterday - Thanks for any help Stacy Marsella marsella@ruccs.rutgers.edu

However, things have improved considerably since I found that I had an improperly terminated SCSI chain. Checking the obvious has never been one of my strong suits :) Just one more data point. My system still crashes quite often even though in theory its all configured correctly. The point is that NSi right now is NOT robust in handling systems other than are NeXT blessed for compatibility, even if you use all the Blessed peripherals. I.E. non supported motherboards will give you problems. Additional devices on your SCSI chain like OD's may give you problems. Personally I think that the motherboard situation is unacceptable and hopefully NeXT will make future versi ons more robust. Their OS shouldn't be SO dependent on a motherboard layout, but I guess its more complicated than I imagine... The moral of this story is, either get a blessed system (or a system with the motherboard from a blessed system) or wait until, those like me, who are toiling with non supported hardware get things running smoothly... This may be a while. I tell you, 3.2 cant come fast enough... Considering the incredible amount of time for its release (march until probably january, 3/4 of a year) I am hopeful that NeXT with its incredible talent will have made NSi INCREDIBLY MORE STABLE! Luckily I have a ND that I will use while my intel system collects dust (besides my playing Wolf3D :). Although it only occasionally crashes (the intel) the crashes are quite ghastly and unlike on black hardware, FSCK cannot gracefully recover from these bombs. The bright side is that many people who are using supported hardware are reporting ROCK solid reliability which hopefully will extend to other platforms as well. At least popular boards like NICE & HINT. One thing that has to change is NeXT's service. IT SUCKS BIG TIME. IT IS STUPID THAT PEOPLE CANNOT GET ANY HELP IN INSTALLING A PRODUCT WITHOUT PAYING!!! I understand that this is a neccessary evil while NeXT is still small, but this ought to be changed ASAP. Especially for a product that is priced so HIGH -- 2500 bux for software and no help??? Funny, Corps couldn't sneak in a base NeXTstation for 2999, but will pay 2500 to use an OS on stinkier hardware??? Aye, I guess in some sick way it serves us right to have to deal with this crappy hardware. Later, John

But I tend to think the law is going to look at this in a much more theoretical sense. Theoretically, because OO languages do not offer more computational power than others, and because they can *also* be expressed in grammars, the are in essence algorithmic descriptions which one can use to write down a process--in other words, a process by which we create processes. However, you have a good point...languages do vary widely in their methodology. Nonetheless, I think a court would not prevent us from writing stuff in 1-2-3's macro language...that would be in violation of the first ammendment.

Yes. But we have to remember that Dave's not comparing a computer language (or its interpreter) with, say, English. He is comparing a computer language with a _statement_ in English. These two things are not analogous. As I mentioned above, I think that it's legal for us to write stuff in 1-2-3 macro language (freedom of expression), but it's not legal for someone to perform our programs since this would entail following the process laid out by the 1-2-3 grammar. > Could one copyright or patent a natural language ?

Another bizarre take on this is: if I could patent a natural language as a process, would that mean that someone without permission could freely speak in that language, but not listen? Listening is interpreting! > I think there are some interesting questions to be resolved here.

Here's to Dave winning his case, whatever way he chooses to go about it. __________________________________________________________________ Sean Luke MILK: It Comes From Cows Brigham Young University sean@digaudio.byu.edu NeXTmail now welcome :-) __________________________________________________________________

Untrue--NeXT opposed a Sun takeover. However, there are some OS deals in the works.

RS6000: It is my understanding that NeXT won't do this one again (it was done long ago), because IBM is moving to the PowerPC in the particular market NeXT is after (that vague area between scientific workstation-class machines and high-end PCs). MIPS: I don't think NeXT thinks MIPS machine owners (including SGI) have a large enough demand for NeXT's OS. Oh, well. I'd like to add to this my opinion that if the Alpha takes off, NeXT *will* take DEC's offer eventually. This means that if NeXT doesn't die anytime soon, in a few years we should see NeXTSTEP on: 680x0, I486/Pentium, PA-RISC, SPARC, POWERPC, Alpha And, of course, there were those NeXTSTEP has-beens: RS/6000 under AIX, and the dual-88110 design. __________________________________________________________________ Sean Luke MILK: It Comes From Cows Brigham Young University sean@digaudio.byu.edu NeXTmail now welcome :-) __________________________________________________________________

The NeXT ceases login procedures before launching the WorkSpace Manager I think. The logo NeXT icon in the upper right has the three dots, I assume because whatever it is hasn't launched. At this point I typed command command ~ and tried several things one of which was gdb. It gave me: dbg_panic: debugger screw-up I tried msg to dump msg buffer to screen and the system didnt return anything but two blank lines. Typing command command ~ returned me to the Mini-Monitor. As I think about events leading up to this I tried to compile a C program; iwf.c using the command cc at the shell. It told me I needed a header table.h in the sys folder. I moved one there, tried again, and was greeted by more, but different error messages error messages. I have since replaced all the files to their original directories, rebooted, but the results are the same. I've been through as many directorys as I can think to go through, complarin the contents on the HD with those on the OD, they seem to be the same. At least that is there are no files missing, though there are extras on the HD. I'm assuming at this point that by attempting to compile a program (originally writen for NeXTStep 2.x I later learned) that I inadvertantly altered the contents of a vital file somewhere. Oh yeah, one other thing. We hooked th cube up temporarily to the internet using a connection at my university. We changed the IP address, and while it was on the net, as a matter of curiosity, we (the sysadmin and I) telnetted a connection to the cube. I logged in to the NeXT from a terminal as /seth/ (my account) and it seemed to work allright, though of couse not with any graphic interface, just a command prompt. If aanyone out there has had a problem anything like this one, can you tell me waht in the world i did wrong? I'm fairly ne to unix, and som even the most basic things are probably escaping me.

NeXT Kernel Flags (black h/w) ----------------------------- Here's a list of some of the kernel flags. Some are commands invoked from the NMI monitor (e.g. "halt"), others modify kernel parameters (e.g. "nbuf") and the rest I have no clue about. If anybody finds out what these others do then let me know. Flag Abbrev. Description ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- astune_rate a ? big b Enlarge NMI monitor window breakpoint br ? continue c Exit NMI monitor and resume execution cache ca ? dspicr d ? debug de Start debug mode (extended kernel messages) gdb g Start GNU debugger help h,"?" Print list of NMI commands halt ha Clean shutdown and go to ROM monitor init i ? kdb_ipaddr k ? monitor m Dirty shutdown and go to ROM monitor (try halt first) mem me ? msg ms Display kernel message buffer nbuf n Number of kernel buffers od_frmr o ? phz p ? pagesize pa ? reboot r Clean shutdown and reboot rootdir ro ? stay s Make NMI window stay on screen after continuing sb sb ? scc_buffer sc ? I'm sure my list is incomplete (I found it by trial and error while looking for something else) but there doesn't appear to be a list of kernel flags anywhere in the online documentation. From "Loadble Kernel Servers, Appendix B: The ROM Monitor and NMI Monitor" (NeXT's spelling mistake, not mine :-) > NMI Mini-Monitor Commands > > The following NMI mini-monitor commands aren't currently useful for > developers outside of NeXT. > > Set or Examine Any Kernel Flag > > The command > > flag=[value] > > lets you examine or modify internal system flags (most internal system > flags are of interest only to system developers at NeXT). > > Example: > > nmi> debug= > kernel flags debug = 0x0 The debug flag has the value 0. > nmi> debug=2 > kernel flag = 0x2 Change the value of the debug flag to 2. > > Set the IP Address > > The command > > kd_ipaddr=value > > lets you set the IP address used by the computer for kernel debugging. > It's useful only to system developers at NeXT. The "nbuf" Flag --------------- The "nbuf" flag sets the number of buffers used by the kernel. Some people have found that increasing/decreasing this value improves system performance. If anybody determines the optimal number of buffers for a particular memory size, processor speed, etc, then let me know. Buffers use up memory space and increasing the number of buffers decreases the available memory (this info is displayed early in the boot process). If nbuf is less than or equal to 96 then each buffer uses 8K. For example, 32 buffers = 0.25MB, 64 buffers = 0.5MB, 96 buffers = 0.75MB. If nbuf is greater than 96 then the additional buffers use up less memory, to a maximum of 0.79MB. For example, 128 buffers = 0.79MB. Any kernel flag can be made a default boot parameter in the ROM monitor using the "p" command. For example, to change the number of buffers to 64, go to the ROM monitor and type: > Next> p > boot command: sd? sd- n=64 > ... When you next boot up, nbuf is automatically set to 64. Alternatively, you can boot up immediately from the ROM monitor with a different nbuf value by typing: > Next> bsd- n=128 Note: The "nbuf" flag can be abbreviated to "n". Therefore, more buffers can be assigned without going over the 12 character limit on the boot command. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This info was collected on an 25MHz '040 mono cube w/ 16MB running NEXTSTEP 3.1. The ROM version is 2.5 v66 (if it matters). Gareth Bestor (bestor@cs.wisc.edu) 09/25/93 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone have any idea why I can't get an 030 CPU board to boot up in a cube from a slot other than #0? I want to get the 030 running with an 040 to do background rendering and don't want to try Felix Lugo's approach of re-numbering the backplane slots. This might risk blowing drivers on the 040 board because the slot pins are used to generate system-wide unique memory addresses (at least that's the impression I get from reading the online documentation "Operating Systems, Part 2: Writing Loadble Kernel Servers, Section 7: NeXTbus"). The 030 board doesn't have an NBIC. The board comes up fine if I plug in into a different slot (say #4) and the ROM monitor correctly detects which slot it is in and doesn't complain. However, if I actually try and boot up from either the SCSI disk or OD, the drive chugs away for a couple of seconds and then the boot process hangs. Pressing Command-Command-~ to get back to the ROM fails and I have to pull the plug :-( Why would booting from a SCSI drive be affected by the slot number of the CPU ?!?! The online documentation makes several references to multiple CPU's in different slots, so I don't see why this is a problem. Any ideas? Any NeXTbus expects out there? Do I need an NBIC chip (where can I get these now)? BTW: I've been trying this with *just* the 030 board in slot #4 with the 040 board unplugged. After powering up I would immediately go to the ROM monitor and try to boot (which hangs). I also tried this with just the 040 board in slot #4, which *immediately* hangs after powering up and I cant even get to the ROM monitor. - Gareth Bestor (bestor@cs.wisc.edu)

I have nntp all compiled and running, as is Cnews. I get my news feed fine, rn works and so on. The problem appears when I try to post news using Pnews. After typing in the message, Pnews fails to post the article, saying something like "NNTP server out of space, try later." But there is plenty of space on my disk, so somehow the amount of space on the disk is not getting read/computed correctly. Has anyone else seen this problem? If so, how did you fix it?

All of my software runs fine under 3.0 and since we're not developing anymore just yet I'd like to know why NeXT insists on making users pay twice for an upgrade. I assume we are purchasing a license to use NeXTSTEP so why can't we decide to skip a few versions and upgrade when we feel like? I've been pondering this since seeing all 2.0 users having to upgrade to 3.0 and then 3.1 instead of just 2.0 or 2.1 to 3.1. Buying upgrades in between seems a little strange when we'd never use those upgrades. NS 3.1 will never leave its box and that seems wasteful to me. Any other thoughts? maurices

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups.

Message-ID: <1993Sep28.124528.4670@selway.umt.edu> Organization: University of Montana Date: Tue, 28 Sep 1993 12:45:28 GMT I like the fact that the clients and servers in X windows can be distributed over a network. Where I work, it would be great to access a remote database using a graphical interface, and X lends itself well to this. My question, is can the same thing be done on a NeXT? It'd be great if a NeXT program on my machine could be accessed by another NeXT on the Internet for example and have the receiving machine do all the window management so that only data was sent across the network. If this is possible now - where can I go for more info? Also, here's another thing I like about X. I can open a window and connect with one remote machine and do some work. Then I can open another window with another remote machine concurrently. I can open numerous windows to remote machines all over one connection to the Internet. Is this a service provided by X or by TCP/IP or both? If my NeXT were connected to the Internet via SLIP, would I be able to do this with it, using multiple Terminal windows? Rich

Touma, Ph.D. > Publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers This book is a must read for Engineers, Economists, Scientists, CEOs & Managers of high tech corporations, or anybody interested in acquiring a new computer system--whether a mainframe, a workstation, or a portable; it is written with such style and clarity that a computer illiterate could find it interesting to read and easy to understand. In my opinion, this book will be a worthwhile addition to a computer owner's library. Chapter 2, for instance, presents the most comprehensive and detailed analysis of the computer industry and all the components that make the computer workstation what it is today. All the technology drivers affecting the attributes (ex: cost, performance...) of the computer and the attributes of all of its components (ICs, Hard Disk, Display, and Operating System) are presented. Furthermore, the book will help the reader make a better choice of a computer platform in the future, and what kind of performance features to look for, instead of the computer jargon that all the newspapers and magazines keep confusing us with. From the results included, one would be able to estimate how much would a megabyte of DRAM or Magnetic Hard Disk cost in 1993, 1994.. and how much would a CRT with a 10,000 pixels/sq.inch resolution cost in 1993,1994.. The sheer amount of data collected made this book worth my while, and at a very affordable cost (with a 30% discount--see below--I paid $48.96 + TSH) when compared to the cost of reports that a professional data collection agency charges (> $8,000). > BOOK INFO: > > THE DYNAMICS OF THE COMPUTER INDUSTRY: MODELING THE SUPPLY OF > WORKSTATIONS AND THEIR COMPONENTS, by Walid R.

VW indeed does exist on moto NeXT. it does not currently exist on intel NeXT and they have not committed to doing that port. i would seriously talk to them about support of black hardware. they have not indicated definitively one way or the other on this, but it's for sure not on the top of their priority lists. organizations with multi-platform products will add and delete platforms over time. my read on the situation (OPINION!) is that they won't do the NSFIP port until they see NSFIP selling oodles of copies. my guess is that the black hardware port was either a grass-roots effort or a Goldberg/Jobs agreement, and i doubt they've made a bundle on the black version. i'd guess that the black version didn't do much for them so they're not going to feet-first NSFIP like they did moto. VW is a great smalltalk. those NS programmers out there will probably be a bit frustrated by the UI architecture though. there's a new version coming out in the near future that is purported to address some of those issues (and others). general caveat: any software vendor who is not NS specific is going to be questioning the value of supporting black hardware (35K-50K units - declining). shawn -------------------------------------------------------- Shawn Broderick Monitor Company / Information Engineering shawn@monitor.com (617) 252-2090 -------------------------------------------------------- FADE IN A tenement building on Manhattan's Lower East Side.

All the functions print fine now (thanks to _nxfinalform!), except for Ledger printing. Since we do a lot of poster graphics, and abstract layouts, the ability to print ledger is very important. I have narrowed it down to two basic problems: 1) The PostScript output seems to generate landscape mode where the 17" edge of the page is top/bottom. The DEC printer seems to think landscape mode is perpendicular to 'common use orientation', which in ledgers, well, common use of ledgers is with the 17" side defining the top/bottom. This may very well be a problem with the DEC printer firmware, however. This is no problem for my graphics program (Diagram!), as I can easily draw in one dimension and then rotate the whole beast into portrait... BUT... 2) NeXT can't print Ledger sized pages in NeXT portrait mode. Even in Preview mode, the page gets chopped off at 11 inches top to bottom, so you end up with 6 inches of whitespace at the top of your postscript window... This is consistent in Draw, Diagram, and WordPerfect... A) Does anyone know of a simple workaround? B) Does anyone know if NeXT admits to this problem?

Touma is an extremely difficult professor, so his grad students seek to butter him up by kissing his ass in a public forum? Perhaps he is influential in tenure decisions and nervous junior colleagues are attempting to curry favor by praising his book? Maybe he is beginning a consulting business and is using the "good reviews" of his book to impress clients and/or investors? I find it hard to dismiss that every single remark made in favor of this book, has eminated from persons employed by the University of Texas. The predecessor Usenet article included written remarks from three U. of T. professors, plus those of the (wisely) anonymous UT poster. And now this article makes five. Now MAYBE it is indeed a wonderful book, perhaps even a classic text whose destiny is to outsell Charles Darwin, Linus Pauling, Stephen Jay Gould, William Davidow, Tom Peters, and Paul Samuelson combined. Perhaps it is worthy of the praise that vomits forth from Austin Texas at prodigious rates. But if so, wouldn't you expect to find a favorable review of it from somewhere OTHER than the University of Texas? Not surprisingly, you can buy this book at a 30% discount.

And no one runs gcc, gas >gld and binutils. Strawman argument #1: the FSF code isn't a "real" program. Stock defense #1: go to an embedded developers' conference sometime, where crosscompilers are considered necessary applications. Ask around about GNU tools and Cygnus Support. Note that the embedded market is several times larger than the unix market, making it more "real world" than anything SCO does. Strawman argument #2: Oh, who cares, it's only a compiler, it's not a real application. Stock defense #2: Excuse me? What makes a "real" application? I picked gcc and company because those are the ones I'm most familiar with. gcc does everything a "real" application needs to do: it reads input, it starts up commands, it processes input, and it creates output. It even spits out messages to the user a bit. Also, the latest FSF ar can be interactive, to a degree, again using only an ANSI or POSIX environment. Free software tends to be most conforming to standards simply because it gets ported to the most environments -- and the standars, such as POSIX, help free software much more than most other software. But how dare you decide what is "real world"? Oh, did you also know that Cygnus has been discussed in Fortune and the Economist? Both of those, perforce, discuss free software and "GNU." So are you going to stick to your rather foolish comment that "no one [in the real world] knows who the FSF is or what GNU means"? Such arrogance.

Jan-Feb, Mar-Apr (completely containing the Jan-Feb issue, and containing Linux stuff I really don't need), and May-Jun (with Linux again). I didn't 'know' about the Linux stuff when I subscribed. I understand that I rather wait a bit for a new issue than get a CD that holds not more than there would fit on an ED disk. As long as I get 12 CDs for my 2 years subscription that should be ok. Now what I don't like (but it seems neccessary with all these complains here) is that Jay has announced that there will be a disc soon that holds 80 MB of software. Isn't there more? Haven't checked ftp for a while. I presume that these 80 MB will go onto the next issue too, since there's so much room. When my two years subscription is used up, I'll probably have CDs with about 100 MB of new software, 100 MB old software and 100 MB useless (Linux) software. Well, at least the subscription is quite cheap, something that probably can only be achieved by enlarging the customer base with Linux users. So I'll accept the Linux part. Uli

I apologize if the message reached some wrong groups, however, all I did was send a follow up to a message from a previous post I had saved. Second: M. Johnson suggests in his posting <MJOHNSON.93Sep28093908@netcom5.Netcom.COM> that there is some conspiracy going on at UT-Austin, and that we are out to floud the net with reviews about a book that happened to be written by a UT graduate and that we are writing about it just because it is written by a UT-graduate and not because the book deserves any merit!! Well, Mr. Johnson I have some news for you: since it is such a good book and written by a UT graduate, I am proud to write a good review about it, and the more of Dr. Touma's stature this University graduates the better it is for all of the graduates of UT. Not that Dr. Touma or the book's publisher needs you to buy the book or read it for that matter, because I did some checking on whether your conspiracy suggestions had any validity and found the following: a) W. R. Touma is not a faculty at the University and never has been. From his author info in the book, he was one of the distinguished graduates at UT, an Engineering Scholar with High Honors, and his dissertation was nominated for the Outstanding Dissertation Award at the University of Texas. After checking with the Austin company selling his book (Technologies & Computer Consultants), Dr. Touma is currently an Honorary Fellow at the IC2 Institute (A world renoun think tank), the president of a multinational consulting firm, with three offices wolrdwide, and senior partner in the Tomaco Group of companies. 2) As mentioned in a previous review (last month) which gave me the incentive to purchase the book, the reviewers of the book are world class consultants and leaders in their field and they happen to be UT-Austin Faculty, and I am sure they are as proud as I am. Frankly, not very often does a book get written and so many people from different disciplines aggree on its outstanding contents: Computer Engineering, Business, Economics, Mathematics, and Engineering Economics. So Mr. Johnson, just to let you know, down here in Texas we have a rule: Conspiracy Theory = True <=> Intelligence = Ignorance but in your case, I'd rather not comment or vomit (as you've written in your article). Third: I sincerely recommend that book because it is the first time that I read about both sides of the computer industry (Technology and Economics), merged in the most eloquent and clear way possible. Thank you all for your time, and I bid you peace of mind. S. T. Nathalie UT SB&C

Toronto, Ontario If you are lucky, you'll experience Well, I started using gcc on SCO Unix around the time I noticed that the stupid compiler that SCO included could not compile this expression correctly: hp->devTable[id][lun] = 1; where id and lun were unsigned chars. To get the compiler to generate correct code, the above had to be written like this: hp->devTable[(int)id][(int)lun] = 1; because the stupid compiler did the index calculations *before* converting the chars to ints unless explicitly told with the cast, and so would overflow and truncate. Fortunately, my code was portable, and so when I noticed that the DOS version worked (built with Borland C), and the Netware version worked (built with Metaware C), I got suspicious and looked at the compiler output. I've heard that this has been fixed, but I've never went back and checked. --Tim Smith

I also find it interesting to note that the README that came with the new driver does not mention the availability of 1120 X 832 @ 16-bits, but the new driver seems to provide it; i.e., it's a choice in the Configure options (but does it really work?). It must either be a driver problem, or else the monitor just won't properly synch at 1120 X 832 @ 16-bits, in which case it's a monitor problem. The lack of mention of this resolution choice in the driver README would tend to imply that NeXT doesn't consider this choice to be an option, which in turn implies the driver just won't do it, which in turn might be either a limitation with the driver, or a limitation with the ATI card. And, the fact that NeXT didn't remove the choice from the driver implies that they think they can get it to work-- at least with some cards and some monitors-- at some future date, or that it might even work now for some minority of cards/monitors. But that's a lot of "implies". Anybody know for sure? Nevin

Parabase sent me some software to supposedly accomplish this using their API, but it crashes after 60 records. Even though they agreed in writing to provide conversion software to handle this specific case, they are now renegging and refuse to support this. The kicker was today when I told them that the Parabase-supplied code crashed Parabase and they replied "sorry, we don't support customer C code." Sheeesh. I didn't write one word of code, it all came from Parabase. Is ANYBODY out there using Parabase? Does anybody know anything about the Parabase API? It's a little irritating to buy $4,800 worth of Parabase products and be told that they refuse to honor a key element of the reason for buying the new version of their software (i.e., the automated conversion program.) Not to mention paying by cashier's check months in advance of actually receiving bug-ridden software. Most NeXT software vendors I've bought from would bend over backwards to make sure things work right, but my experience with Parabase has been the exact opposite. If anyone has solved the blob-extraction process in Sybase and knows how to do what I'm talking about, get in touch with me ASAP. I'll make it worth your while$. John Bartley john@wpa.com PS - I'll apologize in advance for not using the Parabase user group e-mail list. Since Parabase runs it, I doubt that a request such as this would be allowed to pass through.

Date: 30 Sep 1993 21:33:36 GMT Organization: Center for Human-Machine Systems Research - Georgia Tech Distribution: world Message-ID: <28fjbgINN7nt@news.gatech.edu> I plan to buy a computer within the next three months. I have been a NeXT user ever since the cubes first appeared and still use them at home and school. (I was one of those academics that had a chance to meet with Steve Jobs when he was going around the country discussing the things that people wanted to see on their machines. Then I waited eagerly for what appeared to be a long time before I could see a machine.) Even though I have become somewhat pessimistic about NeXT, I still believe that NEXTSTEP is the best. I would like to buy machine for myself soon, even though I will continue to use the NeXT cubes. I just don't like the Intel machines that are derivatives of the '86 family, having been a VAX, Mac, and Sun person earlier. I would like to buy a real Unix machine that has a decent processor, that will also run NEXTSTEP. I can wait until NEXTSTEP becomes available even though I may want to buy the machine before the end of the year. So, here is the question. Would you recommend the low end HP (PA)RISC machine, which I believe is 715? Cost is important, of course. With a color monitor and about 24 or 32 Meg/1 gig hard disk, I would like a machine that costs no more than about $6,000. Am I crazy, or what? Also, what about "hummingbird"? While I know people who own Sparcstations etc., I don't really know anyone who owns an HP machine. I would appreciate hearing from people who own the 715's. Both good and bad experiences are welcome. (One reason for thinking of this option is that if everyone else ditches NeXT, I will at least have a decent processor etc.) One more question. Are software upgrades expensive? Thank you. govind T.

I think I've got this sucka figured out now. I called NeXT again today and finally got through--it seems that their call volume was so high that the system would hang up after putting me on hold for a while. I was kinda panicked since I was told on Tuesday that I had to receive the upgrade and call back to register before Friday. My upgrade arrived Wednesday and I immediately called back to register. Today I called one more time to verify my registration and there was no record. It seems someone else has claimed my registration number so the system kicked me out. None the less, I was told late today that I've got nothing to worry about since the deadline for registration has been extended to the end of October. However, the deadline to purchase the upgrade appears to remain the same. Also, while I had NeXT on the phone I asked why I needed to upgrade to 3.1 when I was willing to wait a year or two for 4.0 which is rumored to be the last upgrade to support black hardware. The answer I got was that upgrading from 3.0 to 3.1-3.2 to 4.0 would be cheaper than going from 3.0 to 4.0. Kinda the same situation 2.0 and 2.1 users now face I suppose. Well, thats it. Hope the above is helpful. maurices Oh yea, for the record, not all registration cards say the deadline to register is October 31. My user card says September 31 while my developer card says October 31. bye........

The chair that I put together (with a screwdriver) represents application builders. Professionals build chairs (and applications) using tools. I consider the GNU tools to be just that, tools. take a breath, before you flame this. There are many companies out there that are building applications using the GNU tools.

It has been used less than 20 times. The last level 0 dump that we did it won't restore. Now we are told that the heads are screwed and Wangdat want $500 to repair it. A new DAT drive costs around $1,000. Can anyone recommend a new drive which would read tapes recorded on the 2600 (compression off) - we really *need* to restore the level 0 dump :-) but which is not manufactured by Wangdat? I view a two year lifespan of minimal usage to be near PC levels of reliability and therefore unacceptable. I'd appreciate early replies via Mail if poss. Thanks.

The price has just been raised, so I believe, to $299. I have never even installed the software. I wish to sell mine for $235. Mail from an academic site is proof enough of academic status, I suppose, as it is more than was required from me at my univ. bookstore.(i.e. nothing.) NeXT seems to not care at all about just plain users. I'm not a business, I'm not a developer, and I am no longer a NeXT customer. Some hints, guys... answer people's questions, bundle PRINTER SUPPORT for the few of us who don't have laser printers sitting around (ha.), and try to eliminate the need for such ridiculous kludges on the part of people owning SCSI controllers as having to buy a separate floppy controller when there is a perfectly good one on the SCSI card. (aha 1542, and I assume 1742 for 3.2, in particular.) Yeah, I really need another card for just a floppy making heat in my system. I really need to spend, what was it, $75-$100 on a printer driver for an OS I bought for $250. Hell, I really like NS on black hardware and wanted to run it on my 486, but I really don't even see why an academic deal is being offered for all NeXT seems to care about such users. And for god's sake, do you have to make those damn FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE announcements sound so damn pompous? This is the net, not a press conference. I hope NeXT can learn to deal with "just users." With the prices on NeXTSTEP ready systems coming down (fast) and the OS being as good as it is, one would think there would be a market with "just users." Just users at home help make decisions at work. It's sad that incompetents like Microsoft are so good at the stuff NeXT seems to be lacking in. And if developers have any sense and are in it for the long haul, they oughta get stuff out there for less of a profit at the moment.

Yes, a POSIX-compliant curses library is certainly a valid thing to do. And carrying it with you is certainly a valid option, in the days of free software. But you hit the key word: VisiCalc *was* an application. It doesn't do the things the world expects spreadsheets to do today. >WordPerfect. No networking, no IPC. Yet it is an application.

While your examples are more and more real-world products, your understanding of their use is not, and your claim of my appeal to authority is simply nonsense. I know that when we tried to port *existing* real-world applications and development tools (Ingres, Oracle, CAD packages) to a POSIX-restricted environment (Mips' first cut at a POSIX systype), it simply couldn't be done. The pieces simply aren't there. Nobody's arguing against standards. Or open standards. I'm a tremendous fan of the idea. But POSIX is simply a bad cut at one, because it instititionalizes a committee's notion of a minimal environment, rather than *real* prior art's idea of a useful one. -- ROGER B.A. KLORESE rogerk@QueerNet.ORG 2215-R Market Street #576 San Francisco, CA 94114 +1 415 ALL-ARFF "There is only one real blasphemy: the refusal of joy." -- Paul Rudnick

In the so called real world w/ real applications there are more than 6% of users working on a Linux PC, using it as a Terminal and for other work. There are even "real world applications" (commercial) running under Linux. And thats only the Linux market (which is growing enourmosly). I know several SW companies developing their "real world applications" with gcc, since its the best and most stable compiler. GNU software is very reliable and highest quality. GNU support is better than support for many commercial apps. And more and more companies are beginning to realize this fact. And, of course, its free. So expect a growth for this market you will never see in the company you're working for. SCO will have a very tough time to compete with Linux. And concerning quality and OO they'll never be able to compete with NeXT. I cant predict, if NeXT will outlive SCO or when NeXT might or ever will have a market share bigger than SCO.

I'm working in the 'real world', doing million dollar applications in the industry, and they definitely use a lot GNU tools.

I agree that there are some compilers that beat gcc on a specific platform in terms of execution speed. For example, Sun's $800 ANSI C v2.0.1 compiler is a little better than gcc for SPARC machines. However, gcc is a better compiler than a large number of vendor-supplied compilers, and gcc costs a lot less than $800 :-)...

You've picked a particularly bad data point (for gcc); the Intel line of chips are designed in a manner that violates gcc's assumptions about what a "good" CPU should look like. Specifically, gcc wants a RISC CPU with lots of equal registers, and the Intel x86's simply don't match this assumption. Among other things, your USL compiler probably has a good set of inline expansion templates that do a good job of peephole optimization, which is crucial for Intel chips. The FSF *could* do more work on the 386 inline templates that gcc uses, but I'd imagine that they have other priorities.... -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*crunch*! | 1.

If this is the same melt that Glenn Reid had originally posted in NewsGrazer, you can stop it any time simply by clicking on the mouse button. I've never heard of it coming up unannounced except through NeXTMail or NewsGrazer, though. In fact, I would very much like a copy of that melt if someone has it (I'd prefer one that only started when I wanted it to, though :-). I also miss the old Scene movies.

It sounds like you have three of them, not just one. One does the melting, one moves your dock to the bottom of the screen, and one flings all your windows around. All three of these are buried inside PasteUp and are typically only invoked if you option-click weird things, so you shouldn't stumble on all of them at once and not know it. However, if you accidentally selected the .eps files inside the PasteUp app wrapper and launched them in Preview, you'd get the behavior you describe. Do you have a copy of PasteUp?

Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc From: lutzray@ERE.UMontreal.CA (Lutz Raymond) Subject: Working with imported images, Q&S Message-ID: <CECHIE.93K@cc.umontreal.ca> Sender: news@cc.umontreal.ca (Administration de Cnews) Organization: Universite de Montreal Date: Sun, 3 Oct 1993 23:35:01 GMT The soup is hot. Here's a question followed by some suggestions (probably neither are quite original). I was reading my PasteUp manual (nothing else to do, I'm still on NS 2.1... 8^) and came to think about how inconvenient it is to work with a document that imports things from outside apps (eg a PasteUp document containing a drawing made with Create): if I'm in PasteUp and want to modify my drawing, I must pass through the cycle find drawing.create open it in Create make modifications SAVE AS drawing.eps return to PasteUp A lots of clicking an TWO copies of the same information, drawing.create + drawing.eps ... From my readings I guess things work better with EquationBuilder equations. They are saved in eps AND contains info that makes them the native file format too, so you have only ONE copy of the file: it can be viewed by other apps AND edited by the creating app. In PasteUP all you have to do is use an inspector to launch EquationBuilder et voila! no more open/edit/save-as-eps cycling ... It should work like this for all imported stuff: the native format (editable by the creating app) should be viewable. Documents are objects, No? Why can't PasteUp send a message like [drawing.create giveMeSomeEPS]? Don't WorkSpace content inspectors work like that? Or filters? Question: How far are we from that functionality? And while we are at it, why not a giveMeSomeAscii for indexing small blobs of text in Create, and a giveMeSomeTIFF, etc... ? But those methods are always the same for all objects created by an application (drawing1.create, drawing2.create) so to avoid duplication a 'rendering' object is designed and put in a place like ~/Apps alongside Create.app, and used each time PasteUp wants an eps version of drawing.create . If moved to another system, the importing documents grabs a (free) copy of the rendering object along with the imported drawing so the other user could see the drawing in PasteUp AND still edit it if he's a proud owner of Create.

A few years back, I attended Developer's Camp, and never really had the time to work extensively with the system after that. I have access to a (mono) '040 cube, and now want to spend some time working on it. I need a jump-start on a few issues, and would appreciate whatever advice anyone can give. 1) The thing is still running version 2.x, but I have the upgrades to 3.0 and 3.1. I first need to decide whether or not to upgrade. Does any of the software installed on the 2.x system (Improv, WordPerfect, WriteNow, Sybase, Lisp, Co-Xist, Mathematica) still work with 3.x? For which of these do upgrades exist, and how costly are they? 2) How much of the development environment has changed? Should I toss my camp notes, or is most of the stuff still applicable? Or should I re-do the exercises under 2.x, and *then* upgrade? 3) If the move to 3.x is really dire, is it possible to partition my disk (it's big) and have *both* systems installed, booting each as needed? 4) I may also have access to a NeXtDimension board and display. Is this even supported under 3.x? Is it worth installing? How does it impact performance of the rest of the system for "ordinary" tasks? 5) Finally, what's the current wisdom on FAX modems and software ? The state of play the last time I looked was that NeXT had put FAX services into the system, but there was a lot of net traffic about problems, bugs, etc. What's the deal now? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with advice and/or pointers! Greg - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Gregory H.

With Create 2.0, just copy the image, and any application that supports object linking, just Paste and Link the image in. Set the update mode to "continuously", and you can edit it in both the importing app and the original Create document in real time. Currently, Diagram2!, Edit, and Mesa support object linking, I'm sure PasteUp2 will have it, and other ISV's should post if their app supports object linking. > And while we are at it, why not a giveMeSomeAscii for > indexing small blobs of text in Create, and a > giveMeSomeTIFF, etc... ? > > But those methods are always the same for all objects > created by an application (drawing1.create, drawing2.create) > so to avoid duplication a 'rendering' object is designed > and put in a place like ~/Apps alongside Create.app, and > used each time PasteUp wants an eps version of > drawing.create .

So, we had to opt for either providing object linking [which required a serialized file format] or the filter service of Drag & drop Create documents to be translated into Ascii, RTF, EPS or TIFF. We selected the former, since NEXT can always fix the bug, and thus we'll provide the filter services when this happens.

As far as I know (ask your computer dealer for verification), the difference between the DeskWriter and the DeskJet ist that the DeskWriter has an RS 422 interface and a different cable. Since your black NeXT machine has RS422 output, this should be no problem. The first thing you should check out is attaching the printer to a serial port, setting an appropriate baud rate, stop bits and other stuff using the stty command, and simply try to output a couple of bytes. If this works, get the djf_for_3.0.tar.Z package from the archives, e.g. sonata.cc.purdue.edu. It should work without any modifications. Feel free to contact me by mail if you have any problems.

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups.

You have to format the floppy from the workspace or use a pre-formated one. You can format it as either NeXT or DOS. When you write it will wipe out the filesystem format. Don't forget to "eject" the floppy from the workspace first. If you don't have the floppy in the drive before you issue the command you get a prompt to insert it, but since the auto-detect-floppy logic doesn't work on Intel it can't tell when you did it and you have to abort. I haven't tried multi-floppy tar's or cpio's yet, but some of the mail I got suggested it was difficult to get it to work. Thanks to everyone who contributed. : : Greg Lindholm : : gsl@netcom.com

Based on the original poster's comments, I would guess he got the "Tekton for TeX" package Erik Sowa was nice enough to provide and post to the archives, and the reason it doesn't "look at all like it should" is that the poster does not own the actual font, hence TeX substitutes Courier or Ohlf's for Tekton.

Thefore foo.tar.Z is foo.tar in Z format, is how that convention worked. Opener (I believe) has to look at the whole filename to determine the format, while .compressed doesn't.

At the firm I work at we already have a DG AViiON, so DG is pushing hard to sell us the 486s too. Apparently their machines perform about as well as the Intel too (depending on which boards/ components you go with, etc.) The Intel/GX appears to be the consensus choice, however. A couple of people mentiond the DEC, and I would like to hear more about it if it is indeed as good or better than the Intel or DG. Thanks to everyone who contributed! I left off everyone's names just in case--but if I didn't thank you individually, let me thank you now; you know who you are :) Eric thompson@netcom.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I use the Intel GX with 32 of RAM plus the DEC 1 gig drive. The machine is the best that I have tried from your list. The sound via the motherboard is a little bit poor until 3.2 and the video is slow. Other than that a great machine. Bear in mind that NeXT was going to OEM the box before the Feb night of the long knives and that the Intel port was written and tested on GX's. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I set up a Dell/Jaws system for my wife. Everything seems to be working great. The only complaint so far is not with the machine itself, but rather with the 3Com ethernet's throughput. Get the Intel, if you're going to set up ethernet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We've tested a Dell 50 Mhz/ JAWS, an Epson NX Progression, a DEC MTE and a Compaq 5/60 Pentium. My infomral impressions are these: Dell Slowest of the group - around 29 MIPS. Graphics run smoother than any of the others. However, I would never buy one until I was convinced that Dell had solved the fuzzy screen problem. You can't view the 17" Dell monitor for more han a half hour without getting a headache. Epson (66 Mhz. 486) Best price of the group. About 10% faster processor and 10% slower graphics than the Dell. This is a reasonable machine for the cost. Compaq (60 Mhz. Pentium) The CPU benchmarks at an excellent 54 MIPS. (The old black slabs are about 18 MIPS.) The graphics speed is irregular. (When the CPU speed is most important it does fine, but moving windows around the display causes considerable ghosts and tearing.) We like them because most of our use is CPU-intensive, but they aren't pleasant if you do a lot of window opening, closing and moving. Of course, the Compaq is very pricey. DEC (66 Mhz. 486 w/ S928 graphics) This machine is my personal choice for the money. It benchmarks at 40 MIPS, has the fastest disk of the bunch and has graphics speed that is roughly equivalent to the Dell. I don't have time to give you all of the details of our tests. However, all machines are roughly the same configuration - that being about 24MB of memory, 240 MB hard disk, and 17" monitor. Some suggestions... Don't buy a non-recommended configuration unless you have plenty of time for trouble loading NeXTSTEP. (We wasted two weeks on a Zenith machine.) Look carefully at the monitor. (We like the NEC 5 FG, but not the FGE's, not the Dell Ultrascan's, not Compaq's monitors, etc.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My brother bought a DEC PC and is quite happy with it. The display resolution is 1280 by 1024 and he says it's pretty fast. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We've got all four. Out of the four Epsons that we purchased two of the hard drives have died. The Dells were terribly late in arrival and the support is terrible. I would recommend either the DG or the Intel. The DG is your basic eisa machine just like the Dell (just with better support). For us, the video is a little slow in the DG and DG insists on selling 3comm ethernet cards. They're terrible. If you plan on doing anything network intensive, your machine will consistently panic. If you're going to buy a DG, just buy an Intel ethernet card instead. Now the Intels will be much better once on board sound and on board scsi drivers are released. And Intel support is excellent. The only problem I have with Intel boxes is that you have to find a decent company to buy them from: one that installs NEXTSTEP for you, and one that delivers on time. So far, this has been a bit elusive for us. But you do get the choice with Intel of IDE or scsi, although IDE drives are a pain to work with. In fact, if you have an IDE drive, you can't use a DPT 2012/90 to do your install. The whole machine just hangs. Monitor wise - I have a viewsonic 7, which I like. My developers, who are more picky, like the Wyse or the NEC. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have had all of the above on my desk for evaluation purposes, running NeXTSTEP. DG Dasher II ------------ Fast enough the best CPU performance of the machines you'd listed in the configurations we tested, but not outstandingly well designed in any particular way. It's expensive and looks and feels like a PC clone. Epson NX / Progression NX ------------------------- Well designed machine overall but they're ISA only! That means you'll be locked into slow peripheral stuff forever. The video is blazingly fast, but CPU performance was poor compared to everything else at the same clock speed. I'd rate it as a good user machine, but not for developers or power users. Intel GX/Professional --------------------- I love the machine! It's the one that STAYED on my desk. Phenomenally well designed, sleek machine that performs well (CPU performance bested only by the DG box, and not by much). Once the on-board sound and SCSI are supported (both to be included in 3.2), I'll be supremely happy. Only drawbacks: - Only three slots, but given that everything but ethernet is integrated, that's not a big issue for most people - Video is NOT upgradable, as there are no localbus slots, just the integrated localbus controller Note that this is the machine Steve used on stage at Expo '93. With the new ATI drivers, better resolutions become available, but mine couldn't handle 1120 x 832 in color properly (the newer ones using the rev 6a Mach32 chipset MIGHT fare better), but 1280 x 1024 grayscale is a sight to behold! Dell DGX -------- Poorly engineered, slow CPU, but blazing video performance. Originally "the box to turn to" because of the 1120 x 832 color graphics with decent performance, this machine doesn't have much else going for it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I use a Dell 450/L, configured with 28Mb RAM, 1Mb VRAM, 230Mb IDE, 670Mb SCSI, Adaptec 1542B SCSI card, Dell 15" FS monitor. This is a solid, dependable machine. I bought it primarily because it is a supported NEXTSTEP configuration, and that has saved a lot of headaches. I have had no trouble installing any of the NEXTSTEP release software. Were I to change anything, I would go with an EISA configuration. I have no comparison data, but I don't think the ISA takes full advantage of the SCSI and it requires memory buffer games to use I/O in memory addressed above 16Mb. I don't have a network, but I think that would also fare better with EISA. I run the monitor at 800x600 color. It's a bit cramped, but I've gotten used to it. I used to switch to 1024x768 gray for programming, when I have lots of windows in use, but don't bother anymore. Color is nice and that resolution really needs a larger monitor. Video performance is acceptable...not as snappy as the Wingine-based options but OK for general use. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I am looking for a machine to run NeXTSTEP also. I thought DEC MTE was the best choice for me to get an fast EISA/SCSI PC to run video communication. However, DEC uses Adatptec 1742 as the controller that is not supported by 3.1, but 3.2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'm using Dell 450DE/2 DGX which has the best graphic performance (even better than Epson Progression.) This machine is the primary machine NeXT port NS too. It's a EISA machine. So, you can get a EISA SCSI controller such as DPT 201X or 202X to increase the disk performance.

I'd just like to make a quick mention here, since there is some (sort of) disinformation about this format. A compressed folder is not precisely a .tar.Z file as has been said. It is actually a .gnutar.Z file. In most cases, this distinction makes no real difference. However, if you plan to untar and uncompress one of these on a vanilla UNIX box (ie non-NeXT) you should use GNU tar rather than tar. (The reason is simple...tar limits the file name and path to 100 characters; gnutar works around this limitation to deal with long file names, which are the norm on NeXT systems.) If you use regular tar, you'll end up with a bunch of files that have MaNgLeD names at the top level, and you'll have to figure out what the real path/file name is. (That info will be in another file that unpacks with everything else.) It's just simpler to let GNU tar fix things for you... So use GNU tar, not plain tar. Of course, using the Workspace on a NeXT machine is always the safe way to handle things... -- Don_Yacktman@byu.edu Nepotism is a relative thing.

PasteUp is a serious app. We wasted 3k on PostScript code that does silly things if you hold down certain keys and click in certain places. Hardly a new concept. You can delete the .eps files if you don't like stuff like that. I, too, am not entirely fond of such things, but our VP of Sales at the time, Jack Reynolds, was truly disappointed that PasteUp didn't have any "easter eggs" in it, so I tossed some in to make him happy. It's not a big deal, nor does it detract from the seriousness of the app. Almost every mainstream app has these easter eggs in them, whether you know about it or not :-) Lotus Improv had one, several of Lighthouse's products have them, Apple's system software, and lots of other stuff.

Among what other problems there may be, there is the usual rush to make sure that everything one wants purchased with FY93 funds gets here, ON-SITE!, by September 30th. I had taken on the chore of ordering two Intel-based NEXTSTEP machines for one of my colleagues. Bearing in mind that the Intel marketplace was hardly a settled affair in June, I decided to put off the purchase process until mid-August. Should be no problem, I thought, with six weeks to buy a PC. Meanwhile, we'd look over the marketplace and decide what it was we wanted to buy. By mid-August we had decided that first choice would be an Epson NX. Also, it by then had become clear that Kris Magnusson of Alpine Computing/MicroAge was offering the best price, along with some likelihood that the machine would work as configured out of the box. Or, if not, that Kris was available and eager to help make it work. So we ordered from Alpine. And waited. Being an "academic institution" (University of California), we wanted to install (or have installed) NS at the academic prices. Not the standard-priced User and DevKits that Epson would automatically put on the disks at the factory (and charge us accordingly for). Unfortunately, that was a kind of market that Epson didn't realize existed, even though Greg Nieman of Epson had visited LANL and knew very well what kinds of machines we would want to order. The factory only made pre-installed NS machines and our order became a special-order situation that they couldn't find time to get around to making. Time flies by, and despite his daily nagging, Kris seems to be getting nowhere with Epson and his "special order": an NX machine, but diskless and with only 20 MB of RAM. (I have no idea why they simply couldn't take twenty minutes of some tech's time to open up two of their production boxes and just _remove_ the HD and RAM! They don't even need to throw anything away.) There was also some nagging going on here at LANL, since the end of the fiscal year is a very busy time for our purchasing department. I was more than a bit non-plused to learn, on September 20, that my assigned buyer was out sick and hadn't yet been in contact with Alpine to authorize this order. (He actually had, but I didn't learn that until later.) Fortunately, the buyer recovered from his cold and the paperwork process got back on its appointed path by about Thursday the 23rd. About the middle of September Kris and I re-evaluated the situation and decided to switch our order to two Intel Professional machines, which he knew he could get in the desired configuration in two or three days. (This would up the ante for us to get into the NeXT/Intel game, but by this time Mike and I were getting desperate, what with the year-end deadline looming.) Well, naturally, as soon as Bret Getzky (sp?), the Epson product manager for the NX, heard he was losing this set of orders -- ours were not the only such machines Kris was trying to extract from Epson for this lab -- he said he'd expedite the matter. And he did (although we had to pay for the expedited shipping). The machines did arrive at Alpine soon after. OK, now the matter was all in Kris's hands, and there were about ten days left to deadline of September 30, when everything had to be here at LANL. But the 525 MB hard disks were not (in his hands); that took another few days to arrive. In the meantime, on Monday the 27th, he shipped off the monitors and the rest of the order by Federal Express Overnight (he thought). On Tuesday he installed the HD's, the extra RAM and Adaptec card, partitioned the disks and loaded in NS for us. Around 5:00 PM, when we spoke on the phone, he was just about to screw the covers back on the machines and cart them off to Federal Express -- overnight, to be here on Wednesday, presumably with a whole day to spare. I hung up the phone, feeling good about the situation. It was soon after my call that Kris was told that the monitors had actually been sent out the night before for shipment by UPS Groundsaver. Which would mean they'd get here about October 5th. Kris says he didn't scream at the person who made the error, but he did count to fifty. Then a whole lot of people at Alpine and UPS, some wearing blue suits and ties, went into high gear and found they could recover the situation. The monitors, it turned out, were still sitting in a pen in Salt Lake City, waiting for some truck to come by. By merely holding up the delivery truck that was taking UPS things out to the airport and also holding up the airplane, they were able to get them in the air, UPS Overnight, on the way to LANL Receiving. Everything got here on time, even though it still took a bit more paperwork at this end (something I had never heard about, called "an accrual memo") to make sure everything got charged to FY93. I thank Kris Magnusson and his colleagues for his efforts in consummating this sale. I suspect that it hardly makes much money for Alpine, but it sure does make goodwill. Now all we have to do is get the machines to stop crashing with "RDP exceptions", whatever they are. Dick Silbar (an Alpine customer, not an employee)

I also don't agree with the use of the word standard as if it had any meaning these days - like the word protocol! The NEXTSTEP environment blows the widgets off of X and MS for that matter. I've worked under both and somehow can't see your reasoning that any "real" development environment would require conformity with AT&T's tired system or X for that matter. Further, /etc/passwd is a dinosaur compared to the new backbone systems like Yellow Pages and Netinfo. It's time to put down the clay tablet and use a more modern approach. The market today requires a fresh perspective on application development - no, I don't mean DOS - and curses doesn't cut it. > Remember, the target market UnixWare is aimed at is that sort > of end-users.

The "UnixWare" market is aimed at the same place all other systems are - the wallet. The money comes out when a system offers a cost-effective solution. To provide this you have to use current technology and pack curses and the idea of "standard file placement" in the attic. Judging from the difficulty in getting organizations to move into the Unix mode of operating, I sincerely doubt that they would settle for lookalikes like QNX - this contradicts your previous statement concerning the need for standardization. The chrome in UnixWare, as you put it, is all there is to bring people to see the light; without the "irrelevant" windowing capabilities, Unix would find itself in the same fossil record that your ideas of software engineering solidified in... I find it terribly disheartening to see old-boy, old-hat philosophies plaguing a newsgroup for such a revolutionary system. I thought we had "standards" here! Christopher Traynor

It lets you "look at" geometric structures (uses Renderman, I think). They also write a "kit" called "DynamicKit" and a program called "CRSolver" that are NeXT specific.

To me there's no question whatsoever which compiler generates the better code ... There's just no comparison. Perhaps USL has improved the compiler in 4.2, but somehow I seriously doubt it. Nevertheless, the SVR4.2 compiler is significantly improved. Mainly in the way it uses registers. I hadn't tried using the -O2 -m486 -funroll-loops options with gcc 2.4.5 (just -O), but even with those options, the SVR4.2 compiler *still* beats gcc by 9%. The tests I use include a highly CPU intensive image processing application, where every extra instruction or wasted register in the inner loops will cost you dearly. The SVR4.2 compiler also has a -K cpu switch (i386, i486, and P5). The speed of the code is about the same for i386 and i486 (when run on a 486). I don't have a Pentium to see how much faster the P5 code is. The P5 code runs slower than -K i386 or -K i486 when run on a 486. Here are the program sizes, for comparison: i.gccO2unroll: 131528 + 170044 + 33876 = 335448 i.gccO: 122556 + 170044 + 33876 = 326476 i.uwP5: 122529 + 176384 + 33876 = 332789 i.uw486: 121601 + 176384 + 33876 = 331861 i.uw386: 120281 + 176384 + 33876 = 330541 Hey, guys, would I lie to you? I, for one, am happy to see that USL finally has a compiler worth the SDK price.

Message-ID: <jwdb.749989533@dutnak2> Summary: after installing Cub'X mouse no longer has menu button Keywords: mouse preferences Cub'X Sender: news@news.tudelft.nl (UseNet News System) Organization: Delft University of Technology Date: Thu, 7 Oct 1993 10:25:33 GMT I've seen strange things, but this one beats me. After I had installed the Cub'X-Window software, although I must say I don't know if this is the real cause, the mouse no longer had a menu button. Trying to change this back again with the Preferences.app, causes the latter program to crash. There is no way to configure the mouse with a menu button anymore. Also the Volume and Brightness sliders keep on moving back to their minimum and maximum positions respectively, no matter what you do. The Key Repeat Rate is reset to its slowest position, and although you can click on the buttons in the Keyboard Preferences panel, this has no effect. Does anyone have an explanation, or even better a remedy for this?

With tcsh, I just use: set prompt="%M:%/ %h%# " and for csh (this does _not_ produce the same prompt): set host=`hostname` set prompt="${user}(${host}) \!% " which may print the fully qualified hostname on some machines I guess, but not on mine. :-) Anyhow, you could try them first and use sed only if absolutely necessary. --david deininger

There are a few of things in Librarian in NS3.1 that seem to be screwed up. The first and most important is that I don't get a one line summary of the files, like I used to. This makes looking things up in the FAQ, NeXTAnswers, NewsGrazer folder, etc., very difficult to do. I have to guess which one is useful. Is there an option that I can set either in the indexing script or in the searching script? ixbuild.1 and ixsearch.1 don't seem to help. Does Librarian use these? I assume so. The second thing is that I can't seem to index links to NewsGrazers folders correctly. In 2.1 I created a bunch of links to each *.nfold file and put the links into Librarian. This worked fine. But now if I put in the link it passes through the link and puts in the name of the file, e.g. faqs.nfold instead of faqs-news. Then when I try to index it says that it works, but it doesn't. I have appropriate permissions and a .index.store file does exist. The *.nfold files are actually on another mounted filesystem in a subdirectory of Library which I have linked to ~/Library. (Does this make sense?) This is exactly the same setup as in NS2.1 and it worked there. The third thing (and least important, but still annoying) is that I have the "Open in Librarian" checked for Text Files in Librarian Preferences. However, it still opens these in Edit. Is this proper? Am I misunderstanding what this means? I greatly appreciate all help. I rely on Librarian a lot. If I could use it correctly now, I probably wouldn't have to ask this.

These boards cannot cleanly display scanlines longer than 1024 pixels at a depth of 16 bit per pixel. Symptoms of the older controller running at 1120 x 832 include periodic video 'noise' down the left or right side at all times. Some boards may exhibit tearing or noise to the right of windows when the windows are being dragged. This is due to video transfers of pixels being dropped while the frame buffer is being read by the Window Server. The problem is less severe at lower vertical refresh rates. Before selecting higher resolution or higher refresh rate configurations, you should verify that your monitor is capable of synchronizing with the video signal. Refer to your monitor's manual for details. For example, the NEC 4FG monitor cannot syncronize with the 1280 x 1024 non-interlaced 60 Hz signal produced by the highest resolution graycsale setting. Many 'generic' SVGA monitors cannot synchronize with 800 x 600 noninterlaced signals beyond a 60 Hz refresh rate. The horizontal and vertical timing used matches VESA guidelines and standards for all VESA modes. Note that 1120 x 832 resolution is not a VESA standard or guidelime mode.

This chip is not capable of supporting 16 bit per pixel NEXTSTEP video output for scan lines longer thatn 1024 pixels. If the display appears to have periodic video 'noise' down the left or right side at all times, then the system almost certainly has the older Mach32 chip, and does not support 1120 x 832 color. As of this writing, we know of no reliable way to differentiate between the older 68800-3 chips and the newer versions from the NEXTSTEP driver environment. Video Memory Systems Some video display systems may not reserve sufficient bandwidth for the VRAM to RAMDAC data path. These systems may show sparkling or video dropout when large numbers of burst reads are done from the video memory by the CPU. This effect is most visible when dragging windows. The severity of the sparkling or video dropouts can be reduced by selecting a lower refresh rate (e.g., 60 Hz instead of 68 Hz) or a lower resolution display. Monitor Capabilities Before selecting higher resolution or higher refresh rate configurations, you should verify that your monitor is capable of synchronizing with the video signal.

The solution is that I didn't know enough about gnutar. While it is true that gnutar complains about long file names and saves them in files like @@MaNgLeD.9, it also has a mechanism where it records these files along with their proper paths and eventually places them in the correct location.

I'm trying to use an HP SCSI DAT drive connected to an Adaptec 1542B. The Adaptec driver doesn't seem to be detecting the DAT drive (this is a drive borrowed from a friend's NeXTStation Turbo, so I know it works with NeXTSTEP). I've already checked the obvious things, i.e. termination, cabling, etc. I know the Adaptec is good, I usually use it with a NeXT CD-ROM. I tried the DAT at SCSI ID's 0, 1, and 4. I get "no such device or address" when I try to access /dev/rst0 (this is the device my friend uses on his NeXTStation). There are no other SCSI devices on the bus (I have IDE hard drives). Any ideas? My other question is this: How does one set the hostname on a standalone machine? I tried using Hostmanager.app, but the machine just hung when I rebooted it. On NeXTStep/Motorola it will complain about not being attached to the network, but then continue without a network. But on NS/I I can't seem to get past this. Any help is appreciated. -- Tim Buck "If I don't do anything I'm ashamed of, I won't timbuck@borg.lib.vt.edu have anything to worry about.

Well, you generally only need to upgrade when the minor version number changes: like from 2.3.x to 2.4.x. Changes in the third digit, which should be what RCS calls the branch digit, typically represent specific problem fixes for a few machines or gcc support for a new system type. You generally don't need to bother going from say 2.3.1 to 2.3.2 unless you have a machine which is effected by these changes. I don't speak for the FSF, of course, and your milage may vary, but I've found that rebuilding gcc only when the minor number changes is a reasonable tradeoff between forever getting & building new versions of gcc and missing new features that have been added.... -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*crunch*! | 1.

Would like to put it up using 10Base-T. Am looking for any advice a current user might have. Specific question: the brochure I have seems to indicate that some sort of set up software needs to be run to get the printer to know its TCP/IP address. Can this software just be run (once) from a DOS PC on the net (utilizing FTP's TCP/IP package)? Am I totally confused? Our salesman seems to be suggesting a "PocketPrintServer" from Extended Systems. This seems designed for getting parallel printers onto a TCP/IP net but ... Any other comments would be welcomed. Thanks -- Charles Robinson Datec Inc. 333 W.

What would happen is the mach kernel would load and start OK, but as soon as it started to register devices/drivers, it would spontaneously reboot. I only got one reply from someone that had a similar problem where a system would hang (one of his friend's). Replacing the Phoenix KB controller that was installed with an AMI fixed the problem. I suspected this could also be MY problem. I have a Mylex 486 EISA motherboard with a Phoenix 8242 keyboard controller. Luckily, I had access to another system with an AMI 8042 keyboard controller. I popped out the 8242 and popped in the AMI 8042. Wouldn't you know it? NS/IP booted fine. I am now placing my order for a replacement KB controller (AMI). Since I did get one other "me too - same problem", I though others may like to know that at least some Phoenix KB controllers are not compatible with NS/IP. I originally ordered my system from Northgate (pretty nice machine, BTW, but a little on the expensive side. *Excellent* service (if you need it) more than makes up for the slightly higher pricing). I will try obtaining a replacement directly from them. If that fails, I will try a local distributor (Liuski International, with locations around the US), which is where the system I "borrowed" the AMI chip from originated. -- Theodore S.

I tried to get a NEXTSTEP-based Oracle server from our local office for an abortive project I was working on a few months back. The word I got back was that Oracle 6 was unsupported on black hardware, would not be ported to Intel, and that there were no plans to bring Oracle7 to NEXTSTEP, due to Steve and Larry agreeing that database servers belong on server hardware, and NEXTSTEP is a client OS. Bottom line, they wouldn't sell me Oracle for NEXTSTEP, or even supply an old version 6 kernel for evaluation. Sybase, of course, has been unsupported since 2.x. It runs on 3.0, and on 3.1 with some apparent client library incompatibilities (NeXT upgraded the Sybase client library under 3.1). People on the net have said you can grap the library from 3.0 and use it under 3.1. My suspicion is that the info that Neil got back about "pending investigations" of the NeXT market was just market-speak for "forget it". :~) If 3.2 breaks Oracle or Sybase, you're probably out of luck.

Well, actually... Some of it's because I've used so many pre-release compilers, but I've always got that little piece in my head every time I go after a strange bug that says "maybe it's a compiler bug".

From: burton@pion (Joshua W. Burton) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc Subject: Digital texts (LONG!) Date: 11 Oct 1993 16:03:09 GMT Organization: Brown University Center for Fluid Mechanics Message-ID: <29c03t$bpi@cat.cis.Brown.EDU> Back in late 1991, I posted about a dozen interesting books, including the Qur'an, the Book of Mormon, Grimm's Fairy Tales, the Book of Hiawatha, and some Lewis Carroll, to the archive at Purdue. Some of the texts were in rather poor shape (raw scanned-in text), but since there was no central clearinghouse for such things on the net at that time, I thought it was worthwhile having a well-stocked Literature directory on the NeXT archive. Well, in the last two years the Gutenberg Project, the Internet Wiretap, and the Cleveland Freenet have all been hard at work, and as a result there are a lot of texts, mostly of decent quality, available here and there. Unfortunately, most of them are single flat files, which is not the optimal arrangement for Digital Librarian searches---the DL seems to bog down on single files more than about 200kB long---and none of them are RTF. The Gutenberg project likes minimalist ASCII, with all-caps for italics, -- for em-dashes, and " for open- and close-quotes. The Wiretap has a markup format that preserves this RTF information, but which is not easy to read from. The Cleveland project has a different, incompatible markup format, and the Oxford project's few PD texts are very professionally marked up with yet a third scheme. I really enjoy having beloved books in machine-readable form, for all the obvious reasons, but since I don't like reading vanilla ASCII, with or without the markup, I have devised a fairly complete set of sed scripts and by-hand heuristics for breaking up texts by chapters and RTF'ing them as they appear at the various sites. I've been spending a few hours a week on this for over two years now, and have accumulated about 48 MB of good NeXTish etext. NOT all of it is completely RTF'ed, and NOT all of it is spell-checked to my satisfaction, but all of it is broken into chapters, and ALL of it has been improved in some substantial way from the way I got it---at least a cursory spell-check and a machine-heuristic search for left- and right-quotes, but in many cases much more (small fonts for footnotes and in-text newspaper extracts, italics for foreign words, ligatures and diereses and accents---in a few cases such as Sherlock Holmes I've actually READ the books online, and have fixed every typo of any sort that I noticed). This trove of just under 100 books should be available to everyone who wants it. It may not be of general net interest, since there are a lot of people who can't handle RTF and prefer ASCII. But for those of us who can benefit, I think it represents substantial added value, and I would hate to think that others will duplicate the effort. I don't think that any of the freetext projects object to this sort of use of their texts, as long as they are still acknowledged and the texts remain freely available. My quandary: who will take the texts and give them a home on the Internet? I wrote to the chap who was in charge of the Purdue archive in 1991 last week, but he has not responded. So I'm making it an open offer to the net.world: I shall upload all my texts to any public FTP site that is willing to keep them for at least a few years, and to allow for expansion to at least 100 MB over that period if others choose to add more RTF texts to the pile. I'm on a standalone machine, so I'll have to do the upload by kermit at 14.4 kbps (a one-night job even with gzip), and I can't keep tens of megabytes of stuff on my university account for more than hours without bringing down the wrath of the sysop, so the texts must have a home ready to receive them before I do anything. I would love to put them on both Purdue and Oregon State, as well as some gopher-accessible site...but I haven't heard back from the archive managers. Is anyone out there? Does anyone want this stuff? Oh, two more things. (Sorry about the length of this post---I hope that the topic is of sufficient interest to justify the bandwidth.) First, I don't promise to maintain, improve, or do anything further with these texts; I improved them for my own amusement, working hardest on those I cherished, and I may continue to do so or I may decide to have nothing more to do with them. They're being offered as is, but with no further obligation. Second, I can _not_ honor private requests for particular texts; this has taken too much time away from my physics research already. If you want the texts, help me to find an archive that will take them. Here's the current list, for the curious: Almanac: a Latin grammar, the CIA World Fact Book (divided by countries), the 1990 census (ditto), State Dept. travel advisories for 170+ countries, the Big Book of Mischief, and world area code, US zipcode, and world airport code lists. Children: Aladdin, several Dr. Seuss books (these might not be PD, so I'll delete them if the archiver says so), Flatland, Grimm's Tales, Alice, Looking Glass, Snark, Peter Pan, and the Wizard of Oz. Classics: Aesop's Fables, the Oath of Hippocrates, Plato's Republic, the three Theban plays of Sophocles, and Vergil's Aeneid, all in English. Essays: Daedalus, by Haldane, two lectures by Einstein, Bierce's Devil's Dictionary, Descartes' Discourse on the Method, Fred Douglass's autobiography, Darwin's Origin of Species and Beagle log, Thoreau's Civil Disobedience plus extracts from Walden, Wollstonecraft's Vindication of the Rights of Woman, some snips from the Kama Sutra, and 16 assorted essays by Twain, all from his last decade. Government: Articles of Confederation, Declaration of Independence, Constitution, Mayflower Compact, Federalist Papers, 16 assorted great speeches, the Communist Manifesto, the Israeli Declaration of Independence, the PLO Covenant, the Magna Carta, the UN Charter, and the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen. Hacker Jargon: both the current 3.0.0 file and the venerable 1.0 JARGON. Novels: Christmas_Carol and two stories by Dickens, Stoker's Dracula, E.R.Burrough's Gods_of_Mars, Princess_Of_Mars, and Tarzan, H.G.Wells's Invisible_Man, Time_Machine, and War_of_the_Worlds, London's Call_of_ the_Wild, Sea-Wolf, and White_Fang, Austen's Pride_&_Prejudice and Sense_&_Sensibility, Verne's two moon books, Kipling's Jungle_Book, Conrad's Heart_of_Darkness, Lord_Jim, and Secret_Sharer, Hardy's Far_ From_the_Madding_Crowd, Twain's Connecticut_Yankee, Huck_Finn, Tom_ Sawyer, and Tom_Sawyer_Abroad, Melville's Moby_Dick (a clean edition from the Oxford Text Archive, not the piece of scanned-in crap that I put on the archive in '91!), Hawthorne's Scarlet_Letter and House_ of_7_Gables, Bunyan's Pilgrim's_Progress, Crane's Red_Badge_of_Courage, Stevenson's Jekyll_&_Hyde and Kidnapped, Orczy's Scarlet_Pimpernel, Walter Scott's Ivanhoe, plus the Canongate and Keepsake tales, Emily Bronte's Wuthering_Heights, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Recipes: a 1.4 MB archive, in a man-pageish format that the DL can read. Scripture: The King James, the Qur'an, and the Book of Mormon. Tales: The complete Sherlock Holmes, 28 of Poe's best short stories, the Gift of the Magi, the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and 23 Jack London stories, about equally divided between Klondike and South Pacific. Verse: complete Sandburg and Crane, lots of Dickinson, Robinson, and Millay, Hiawatha and three more by Longfellow, a few each by Poe, Frost, Auden, and Whitman, the complete Bob Dylan lyrics; from across the lake, Beowulf in the Dryden translation, the Canterbury Tales, Marlowe's Faustus, Milton's Paradise Lost and Regained, complete Marvell, Keats, and Yeats, the Rubaiyat, Prufrock, five by Kipling, and a few each by Housman, Tennyson, Shelley, Sassoon, Blake, Wordsworth and Wilfred Owen.

If the latter, is the mounted volume also visible to the foreign system? - Do any "read a Mac HD Disk" utilities exist for Unix or Mach? If so, do they preserve the resource fork and finder info? - Is the Mac Operating System's File Manager re-enterant? Can it work on several outstanding requests?

Maybe you're not aware of this but the ability to manage .tar and .Z files is built into NS 3.X. All you have to do is double click a .tar.Z file and the Contents Inspector will open up with a button for Decompress. Once the .Z has been undone you reselect the file and un .tar it the same way. Creating .tar.Z files is just as easy, select the folder or file you wish to archive and pull down <File> <Compress> to create a .compressed archive which is identical to a tar.Z archive (so you can rename it as such to prevent confusion). -- ========================================================================= Alex Currier | I get no kick from champagne... mycroft@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu | mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all NeXTmail capable! | but I get a kick out of UNIX. =========================================================================

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work under NS3.1, since playscore is no longer around that I can see. Not that I care (I never even noticed that it wasn't working anymore until this thread). Perhaps someone smarter than I knows how to fix that and will post the information here (_don't_ post it to me, as noted, I don't really care :-). Read the directions below to see how to unshar this (NewsGrazer probably has some automagic something that will do it for you). #! /bin/sh # This is a shell archive, meaning: # 1. Remove everything above the #! /bin/sh line. # 2. Save the resulting text in a file. # 3.

This program X * was inspired by a similar program called hourly by Malcolm Sanders X * (mms@aretha.jax.org). In fact, the skeletal scorefile used in X * bong() is directly from the scorefiles used in hourly. X * X * To compile: X * X * cc -O -g -object -o chime -s chime.c X * X * Perhaps toss in a -pipe flag if you've got alot of memory (doesn't X * affect the program, just lets cc compile faster sometimes - as if X * it makes a difference here :-). The -object and -s flags make X * sure the executable is pretty small. Small is good in this case. X * X * Usage: X * chime [-a amp] [-c count] [-n note] [-r rest] X * X * The amplitude (amp) is a floating point number which specifies X * the fraction of the real amplitude (as set by the sound X * level keys on the keyboard, for instance) which chime plays X * at. Default is 0.2. X * The count is the number of chimes to generate. If count is not X * specified, the number of chimes is dependant on the time. X * If the current time is within five minutes of the hour, X * then the number of chimes is the hour mod 12. At all other X * times, a single chime is generated. X * The note is specified in terms of how playscore expects it. I X * don't know! Malcolm's original program used d6 (I assume X * that's a d in the sixth octave). I like c3 much better - X * it's got a more "Big Bennish" sound to it. X * The pause time between chimes is specified by rest, which should X * be a floating point number. Malcolm's default was .75, X * mine is 1.5. X * X * Suggested usage: Place chimes in crontab.local so that it goes X * off all of the time and lets you know that even though you are X * absorbed in your work, time still passes. There are a couple X * alternatives. Assuming chime is placed in /usr/local/bin: X * X * 00 * * * * root /usr/local/bin/chime X * X * rings in the hour every hour. On the other hand: X * X * 00,15,30,45 * * * * root /usr/local/bin/chime X * X * rings in the hour every hour, and also chimes once every 15 X * minutes. Like some of those annoying wristwatches - expect chime's X * beep has _authority_. If you like, play around with the source X * (or crontab.local) to make sure that chime doesn't chime at X * unreasonable hours (like 10am for me :-). X * X * In any case, chime _must_ run as root. Otherwise, chime cannot X * access the DPS unless the user in question has set Public Sound X * Server on in Preferences. Of course, that might be an advantage X * in some situations ...

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.)

Date: Mon, 11 Oct 1993 13:34:13 GMT I have finally finished getting all the information together to complete the circuit diagram for connecting a Dell DG/X 486 system to the NeXT MegaPixel Color Display. If you would like a copy of the circuit diagram then please email one of the accounts below, I shall then email you the PostScript file. If you have any queries please email me back and I shall attempt to answer your question. Since this is a NeXT MegaPixel Color display to what is essentially a standard VGA connector, it may indeed work with other video adaptors on 486 systems. Perhaps someone would like to try this out and relay their discoveries to the Internet.

If you live outside the USA, insist that a technician double check the modem before it is sent to you because the clearing custom process in both way is time and money consumming. The modem is "plug and play" on the Mac but the cable provided works only with NeXT 68030. You should make you own cable to work in hardware handshake (mandatory at speeds higher than 2400 bps).

I repost them for the benefit of those following this thread: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- There has been some discussion about what Gateway configuration to buy, how to configure it, and how well it runs NeXTSTEP for Intel Processors. Below is my set of experiences, which I offer by way of example to show the various trials I faced, and hopefully to reduce those of others who follow. I do finish with a few QUESTIONS, which can be found under the heading QUESTIONS. If you know about Gateway 2000 systems and their vagaries, please see if there are any questions you can help with. MY SYSTEM: Recent Dx2/66V with 16MB memory, 256K cache 424MB IDE WD 'Pihrana' drive (for NS/FIP) 212MB IDE WD " " (for DOS/Windows) 1542C Adaptec SCSI Controller NEC CDR84i CD-ROM (SCSI)* ATI Ultra Pro Graphics Video card w/2MB Gateway 2000 "Telepath" Fax/Modem w/ much bundled DOS/Windows software * Do NOT get the Gateway CD-ROM as it will not work with NS/FIP. It is not SCSI. NextStep won't understand it and you will ultimately have to send it back and get frustrated. I have not yet used the modem as I await my phone line. I understand there are Serial driver problems with NS/FIP, so my phone line and the driver fix may come hand in hand. [Update: I have now used the modem with the bad serial driver, and does, in fact crash the system. I have yet to install the upgraded serial driver from ftp.next.com] I recommend that you get the NeXTAnswers index, and then the article about Gateway. This can be done by sending e-mail to nextanswers@next.com, subject INDEX ASCII. At the time it included no information about the currently shipping X30 Micronics motherboard, but has been updated to reflect the manufacturing shift within Gateway. If you are going to jump for a sound card, get the article from NextAnswers about the one you are interested in, as there are some serious problems with the popular sound cards. I am waiting for that to shake out, or someone to make a solid recommendation. ORDERING When I ordered, the Gateway salesperson I had knew nothing about NextStep, and that was fine with me. I'm a do-it-yourselfer when it comes to these things. I now realize that letting Gateway know exactly how you want the system configured will save you headaches down the road: 1) Ask to have the W7 jumper installed. This is a keyboard configuration jumper, which enables 'PS/2 keyboard' operations. It is documented as RESERVED on system charts in the manual, but is easily located on the motherboard if you read the manual. It is critical to a successful installation. You may have to do this yourself, which involves removing the cover of the machine. 2) If you want DOS/Windows at all, choose a disk configuration you like and have them partition the primary disk with adequate space for NS/FIP (unformatted) and a minimal DOS installation. NS/FIP will *not* install in a dual boot mode unless there is both a DOS partition and a NS partition on the primary drive. Here I screwed up. I had them install the DOS/Windows suite on the 212, assuming that I could use the entire 424 as a NS drive. This worked, but left me unable to access the DOS boot, because I had given the entire 424 over to NS. Let DOS have a minimum of about 7 or 8MB on the primary disk if you want no trouble. DOS can be entirely installed in about 7MB and then you can shift to another drive for your DOSsy stuff when booted to DOS. I have now given a miserly 1MB to DOS on my primary, and shift immediately to a DOS partition on my secondary (212MB) drive when booting to DOS. This re-installation required FDISKing the primary and secondary drives and performing a *very* manual install of DOS on the D: drive. DOS SETUP is not designed to let DOS go anywhere other than the C: drive. 3) If you are ordering a modem from Gateway, have them install the modem as COM2 and the mouse as COM1. NS must have a serial mouse at COM1 during install. It can be moved to COM2 as a configuration option, but why bother if you can't operate the configuration program with it at COM2. They set up my system with the modem at COM1, and the mouse on COM2. It took some messing to straighten this out, as they were fast and loose with the ribbon cables coming off the motherboard. Docs said that the 9 pin was COM1, but due to the modem, they cabled my 9 pin up as COM2. Had to trace back to the motherboard connection to figure that one out. 4) NS wants a minimum of 16MB memory to run. That is what I ordered. I now have a minimum NS system with a fully populated set of 4MB SIMMs. If you buy a 16MB system, insist on a 16MB SIMM module. Now, if I want to upgrade my memory, I'll have to start throwing away good 4MB SIMM modules! [Groused to GW about this, asked for a 16MB SIMM, and they came through for me. I have returned my 4 4MB SIMMS.] 5) Gateway is now shipping an ATI card that they regard as new and improved over the Ultra Graphics Pro. The Ultra Graphics Pro is supported, make sure the newer card is before you get frustrated trying to make it work in some compatibility mode. PRE-INSTALL Check that the W7 jumper is where it ought to be. See that your mouse is on COM1. Install your SCSI CD-ROM player yourself (Gateway doesn't sell one!). Check the install of DOS if you care. Follow the BIOS setup configuration stated in the NeXTAnswers help on Gateway. It does not cover IDE drives, and I've had mixed success with two IDE drives both Auto Configured and set in Block Mode On. INSTALL I saw a note in the Release Notes for 3.1 that on some systems you must eject the 3.5" diskette once the banner "Mach Operating System" appears, or things don't go so well. I did this, but don't know whether it was important. Much has been written about installing with the keyboard detached. With the correct installation of the W7 jumper, this was *not* necessary for me. When working through the NS install, you will see disturbing messages about the failure to find the pointing device, but then magically it works anyway. This is a mirage. The default for the install program includes a bogus B/W screen definition and a serial mouse (which works for you!). However, the driver that gets loaded into your permanent configuration is the PS/2 (Bus?) Mouse driver. Once you reboot, your mouse will be lost to you due to the driver that doesn't drive your mouse. All you have to do is configure the serial mouse and drop out the PS/2 Mouse driver within the configuration phase. If you screw up, you can recover. When the 'boot:' prompt appears, you can type 'config=default' and you will boot into the bogus B/W screen and serial mouse used during installation. You can move to the Configure.app and reconfigure your mouse properly. Note: If you have no sound board, like me, NS/FIP loads no sound capbility whatsoever. You must load the 'beep driver' in Configure.app to even get the smallest beeps out of your system. In spite of the dire warnings from NS, I installed the entire User and Dev systems 3.1 leaving off only the literature and Webster packages from the User system and it came to only 205MB. This after hearing that 330MB was a bare minimum and 400MB was recommended. I have yet to actually develop anything so I will see what consumption is like. I am a Unix person, so the native NS install as a standalone system left me a bit preturbed. The root account defaults to no password. The default account, 'me' hangs its directory off the root. You may wish to change this. I created a directory, '/u' and hung my user accounts off that. I also protected my root account with a password and removed the 'me' account from the system. If you are not familiar with NetInfo, you will be surprised to see that /etc/passwd is completely bypassed by these user changes QUESTIONS Sound card? With Adaptec 1542C in the system Pro Media 16 can freeze up. This sounds like a show stopper. Where is this being addressed? Other alternatives? Is SoftPC available for NS/FIP? How much and/or when? CREDITS Many thanks to the comp.next.misc group, especially Paul Sears (sears@uh.edu) and Robert Lutwak (robert@argon.mit.edu) for early work on the W7 jumper. Their notes were critical in getting through a smooth install. -- =============================================================== Dean Banfield Real Decisions Corporation Voice: 203.656.1500 22 Thorndal Circle FAX: 203.656.1659 Darien, CT USA 06840 e-mail: dean@rdcalr.realdec.com ===============================================================

I am looking for others with similar problems. Currently, there are three of us that I know of - we all share the following system installation problems: System boots, and refuses to recognize the SCSI card, and thus, the SCSI CD-ROM drive. I have tried every possible combination of interupts and drive IDs, termination, and such, with no luck. Nextanswers have been read for this equipment, and their suggestions produce nothing. Our configurations are as follows: Two of us have Gateway 2000 machines, one is Micronics MB, and the other is the newer 'JX' series, one month old. All of us have Adaptec cards - the two with Gateway MBs have 1543cf cards, the other has a 1540b. All of us have Toshiba CD-ROM drives - all 3401TA drives, though I have also tried a 3301TA drive. ---- I have called Gateway, Adaptec, Toshiba, Maxtor, and Next. Noone has a solution, and Next has put me 'in the queue', and not stated when they will call back. It is my hope that if we get together, we can get some results. Next has agreed to 'log a complimentary service call' for me. I don't think we should have to pay for INSTALLATION support on hardware that should be compatable. If you have had problems like these, please either email me, or better yet, post a 'me too' followup to this message saying what system setup you have, what error you get (mine never finds the SCSI card, which it should do right befor it finds fd0, etc), and what you have tried to resolve it. Perhaps we can get this solved - I've spent two full days trying every possible hardware configuration, and I don't see a lot of response from Next. Dane Jasper (707) 524-1750

Unfortunately you can't do this with puppet, because it requires that you effectively log into the NeXT, and pop up a window on the NeXT screen.

For example, there is a 3401 that will work only on Suns. Ditto for SGIs--I have one that SGI ships, the label says it's a 3401, but when I plug it in to a black box, the NeXT actually thinks it's a disk, and since it can't mount it, NS offers to initialize it for me! Then there's a 3401 that will work with Macs, PCs and NeXTs. Larry got this info from Toshiba, BTW. The bottom line: Make sure you've got a 3401 that supports your system.

Is there any switch telling the compiler that a char is unsigned. Few compiler has one (gcc and borland I know). This is unfortunate because this breaks many software playing with 8bit internationnal code. Of course, you can define those strings (that may contain those 8 bit chars) to be unsigned char * instead of plain char * and of course you just have to rewrite all those strxxx() function and printf function for unsigned string. And off course you have to cast all litterals strings to unsigned char *. Every way around you are screwed :-( This is the kind of completness I like with GCC. This is why I have promote the use of this compiler on all platform except DOS 16 bits at the office. -- -------------------------------------------------------- Jacques Gelinas (jacques@solucorp.qc.ca) Maintainer of US4BINR jacques@us4binr.login.qc.ca

For relational (SQL) database servers which run on NeXT hardware itself, there's also QuickBase from SofDesign Solutions (no "t" in "SofDesign"). This is a good product for my databases, but my databases are probably not the same as yours. You might want to try it out for yourself instead of believing anything I say about it. (I do like it though). They have a demo version available, but they are in the middle of upgrading/changing that. If you ask for the demo right now you end up getting nothing, I think. I'll try to remember to post another article when the demo version is once again available. Both their server and clients are targetted for both Motorola and NS/Intel platforms. I suspect the Intel version isn't quite as stable yet, but really that's just a guess on my part (I don't have an NS/Intel system yet, so I have no way to test anything on NS/Intel). -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA

One thing I've often wondered about... The people who have written games so far on the NeXT seem to concentrate on "video" games, involving more intensive graphical animation... These tend to be a little slow, especially when sharing my system with other processes. But this is unessessary. Some of my favorite games are not video games. For example, on the macintosh I've played: SimCity, Civilization, Spaceward Ho, Strategic Conquest, and lots of others. I have spent countless hours playing all of these, and often go back to give them a go just for fun. (I'm not great at Civilization yet, but someday...) Some of these seem very easy to implement, especially for NeXTStep. So I'd like to see some games of this nature... They tend to have much more staying power for me. Michael

Actually, this whole thread got started with me saying two things: 1) We use gcc here for many things - supporting GNU 2) The SVR4.2 cc can produce better code than gcc - supporting USL It turned into: 1) I can't believe it, the SVR4.0 compiler stank - berating USL 2) Have you tried this option on gcc? - supporting GNU I don't think anybody was slamming GNU's gcc, per se. If anything, USL got some (currently) undeserved slams. BTW, gcc isn't free, its just less expensive. In the real world, someone has to compile and support it. In our case, we pay Cygnus to do that. In other cases, the system administrator has to do it. If you like to live dangerously, you ftp a binary from some archive. -Rick -- Rick Richardson Senior Staff Engineer Writing X Widgets?

Puppeteer is just a way of remotely controlling NeXT applications and the Webster puppet uses the Webster application. There's no way to run NeXT applications if the Workspace Manager isn't running. I hope NeXT address this in a future release and allow applications to run without the WM in a similar way to redirecting the output of a Unix command to /dev/null. Dave Griffiths
From: windemut@cumbne.bioc.columbia.edu (Andreas Windemuth) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc,comp.sys.next.hardware Subject: Working Pentium system: ALR Evolution V/60 (desktop) Date: 14 Oct 1993 18:18:31 GMT Organization: Columbia University Distribution: world Message-ID: <29k55n$1ej@apakabar.cc.columbia.edu> Dear searchers for white hardware, A few days back there was a request for experience with Pentium-based NEXTSTEP systems. Well, I finally managed to get my ALR Evoultion V/60 running this week, and I decided I should share my experience with the net. I have no other relations to ALR than being a satisfied customer. If this comes out to be overly positive it is because of my genuine enthusiasm. The system works great, and is very stable. I would buy the same again, give or take some disk or memory. It feels much faster than NeXT hardware, and the screen looks really good, in native NeXT resolution at 68MHz. In short, installation is somewhat tricky, but once it is up and running it is a wonderful machine, for a reasonable cost (about $6000). I ordered an ALR Evolution V/60 Desktop Pentium system directly from ALR. They told me it would take about six weeks; it came within four weeks. I ordered it with a 340Mb IDE drive, 32Mb of memory and an ATI GUP 2Mb video card. I ordered a Nanao 550i Monitor, a MediaVision PAS 16 soundcard, an SMC Ethercard Ultra (which did not work) and an Adaptec 1542C SCSI Interface from a local vendor. I used a NeXT CD-ROM drive for installation. I had to return the SMC card and promptly got an Intel EtherExpress 16 for it, which seems to work great (since yesterday). I had no problem integrating the new machine into an existing network of 5 black machines. The machine benchmarks at 56 VAX MIPS, the floating point performance is about 60% of our Iris Indigo (the 100MHz R4400). I am very pleased with that. The IDE drive works fine, it never broke seriously in the few cases when I had to cold boot (always for some known reason unrelated to the machine itself). The NXFactor is around 0.8 at native NeXT resolution, as expected from an ATI card. Big windows do not move smoothly, but It isn't bad enough to be a problem for me. It is not possible to directly install NS 3.1 from CD-ROM onto the IDE drive. When I found that out, I ordered an additional SCSI drive (which went bad and is currently being exchanged). Meanwhile, (before the arrival of the SCSI disk), I managed to install a minisystem on a Bernoulli removable SCSI drive (Very tricky, let me know if you want to attempt that), and using that I could load the IDE drive from the CD-ROM. You could get the ALR with a SCSI drive, which costs somewhat more, to circumvent that problem. I do think, however, that SCSI drives are more prone to loss of data from power failures or cold boots. Another way that has been successfully tried is to format and build the IDE drive on another NS/Intel machine. If you don't have the resources (SCSI drives, other computers) it might still be best to get the IDE drive and buy or borrow a cheap ISA IDE controller for use during the installation. I used some of the tricks posted on the net to get the sound card running, it worked like a charm on first try. I connected it to the little speaker that comes with the ALR, the sound you get from that is very low, just audible at the highest volume setting. Since I am in an open office space, that is good enough for me. For better results you should connect a set of speakers to the card, I haven't tried that yet. I got the new drivers from the net for the ATI card, the serial ports and the EtherExpress card, and all of them seem to work flawlessly. I am now ready to give up my NeXTstation to an eagerly waiting office mate and use the ALR exclusively. I hope this helps, Andreas Windemuth +-------------------------------------------------------------------- |Columbia University, Dept. of Biochemistry and Biophysics, BB-221 |630 West 168th St. | tel: (212)-305-6884, fax: 6926, NeXTmail |New York, NY 10032 | email: windemut@cumbne.bioc.columbia.edu +--------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, just imagine that I would buy that computer, we have two NeXT Stations with 8 Mb RAM and 105 Mb HD, and one NeXT Cube, 16 Mb RAM, and 1.7 Gb HD, all running system release 2.1, my questions is, NeXT Step 3.0 fits in those 105 Mb hard disks to upgrade?? Someone told me that 105 Mb isn't enough for NeXT Step 3.0. TIA, Daniel PD: Please reply directly to my account! -- Stardard disclaimers applies...

I was one of their 'pre-release' customers. I use DFax with a SupraFax modem. Even though the original release was delayed several times, I was reasonably happy once I received and installed my copy. Now I am not happy with DFax, and am very reluctant to recommend it to anyone. I have had several problems that I will list here. The first problem is that it is often unreliable. I am never sure if a fax I sent out was delivered. If it has graphics (done in Virtuoso, which I really like, or other software) it sometimes sends it but not always. (I don't even try it now.) Support used to be prompt and good, but I guess they have other problems to worry about. The second problem concerns upgrades. A few months ago there was an article here announcing version 1.4 and how one might be able to download it. Since I use SLIP, I have not need for kermit or other such protocols. However, since kermit was the easiest option that I could use to dial up their number, after I received a special account for downloads, I installed kermit and tried to move the files. After a couple of failed attempts, I connected but the line dropped before the transfer was complete. Having already wasted time and money, with no guarantee that the telephone connection will stay intact, I gave up. I sent mail to Total Systems Software immediately, explaining the problem and asking for other options (such as paying for the upgrade disk and reasonable charges for shipping and handling). This was few months ago, and I am yet to hear anything. While they may have their reasons for using this method of downloading, which seems rather antiquated, especially when ARDI does such a nice job with ftp accessible upgrades for their nice product, Executor, I cannot see why DFax cannot be similarly upgraded. Perhaps the time has come for me to give up on DFax and get a copy of NXFax from Black and White Software, about which I have only heard good things. (When I paid for (not received) DFax, NXFax was not available for SupraFax, and I already had the modem.) govind I hesitated to post this, since I have been very reluctant to say anything bad about *any* NeXT developer/ISV. I even bought a copy of PasteUp several months ago, even though I didn't have an immediate need since I felt I had to support it.

DFax worked fairly well for me under NS 3.0, although it would have been nice if the program were able to notify me when faxes weren't sent. I have tried to download the upgraded software many (about 10) times, and haven't yet been successful. I've tried kermit, ASCII, and Zmodem, and not once has the transfer completed successfully. My e-mail to Total System Software asking about these problems has gone unanswered. I don't have a pressing need to send faxes from my computer at home. But it's nice to know that I can, especially when I paid about $100 to people who were working on such a program. It's not yet clear what I'm going to do about this, since it's clear that the TSS folks don't answer their e-mail. I guess I'll just have to fax things the old-fashioned way for now (printing and faxing from a "standard" machine). Which is really too bad. Reuven

I'm not sure how many formats Sun's .au files can be (1 maybe?) but I know that .au formats are a subset of .snd formats. Therefore you can rename foo.au to foo.snd to play Sun files on the NeXT but not necessarily the other way around.

Since the consulting pays the bills, and nearly no one bothers to register the shareware I've released, I have to go with the one that puts food on my table. I hope to get a game like crossfire done (sooner the better, I'm sure you'd agree) and out, but NX_Invaders and NX_Defender are also high on the list. Two others I'd really like to do: Lemmings, and, since the SimCity port isn't appearing anytime soon, I hope to do my own version with my own little twists in it. Ironic that I have done all those arcade style games when I much prefer to play Sim* games, isn't it? Also, I have a game called PipeWorks that I almost put out a year ago, but didn't due to the pleas of someone else who was developing a similar game (the same folks doing the SimCity port, as I recall) but since that game has yet to show up, I might just clean it up and release it after all. (The game is like xpipeman, or the Nintendo "Pipe Dream" if you know what those are...) Also, I've done some work on an advanced version of a game like LodeRunner. (It's better than GoldDigger, I assure you.) That one's about 40-50% done, but has sat for over six months due to lack of time... And all this stuff is GameKit based, of course. Geez, I've got a lot of stuff in progress; guess I oughtta release it, eh? :-) Oh, I'd give the games higher priority if someone would be willing to finance me to write them. $15 and hour, let's say. If I could have a steady 10-20hr/week at $15 and hour, I could afford to work like a _demon_ on GameKit stuff. Any takers? The only reason I've backed off right now is need for income; I'll work on whatever gives me the necessary income. Problem is, if you look at how many registrations have come in for my current crop of games, we're talking about <$1/hr of dev time, which just don't cover expenses unfortunately. So, if you like those games, please do take the time to register. I know that the market for the PillBottle and Columns types of games is limited; most would prefer an adventure, a Sim* game, or a flight simulator...and, believe me, I hear what you're asking for and eventaully hope to give you what you want. :-) Happy gaming, and do keep e-mailing me with suggestions of what you would like to see; it may take a while to get to all of it, but I do archive every suggestion I get, and work on the most popular ones first...they all remain in the "to do" queue. Those who know me personally will vouch for that... Know what else I'd _really_ like to have? A NeXT version of xpilot. :-) :-) :-) :-) What a great game! -- Don_Yacktman@byu.edu Nepotism is a relative thing.

We didn't make upgrades available via FTP until we canned our separate demo copy and merged the ability to run in demo mode (for 10 minutes at a crack) into Executor proper. It may be that DFax can't do that. We still send upgrades out by floppy, although a few percent of our customers will be getting them via FTP instead. NOTE: 1.3 is *not* ready yet.

Hello, net.world. I am looking for others out there who have had similar problems on similar Intel-based platforms with the NeXTStep 3.1 install. I have been experiencing random system lockups (sometimes System Panics, but more often the system just freezes). The specifics of my configuration: ALR Evolution/IVe EISA 66MHz 486/DX2, 256k RAM cache, 32MB RAM ATI 68800 Vesa Local Bus video adapter SMC Elite/16 ethernet adapter ProAudio Spectrum 16 sound adapter DPT 2022/90 EISA SCSI adapter (note: DPT says 2022 replaces 2012, and that the 2022 _is_ compatable with NS/i) Viewsonic 17 1600x1280ni monitor DEC internal 1GB SCSI-2 disk NEC CDR-74 CD-ROM drive I am running the system on a line-conditioned UPS, so I can rule out any electrical problems. Similarly, the machine works great with DOS and Windows. Things I have tried: 1. Install updated ATI video drivers 2. Remove sound card 3. Remove ethernet adapter 4. Check and recheck all SCSI parameters, cables, and termination. 5. Re-install (twice) 6. Replace system motherboard 7. Replace SIMMs I am about ready to give up and wait for 3.2. I am tired of these system freezes; they happen with regularity but not predictably. The system freezes both when I am and am not working on the system and seems to be independent of any particular application. These problems are particularly troublesome because I am trying to convince the powers-that-be to use NS/i in our Graduate Data Analysis labs as low-cost Unix workstations -- at this rate, that will never happen. Of course, ALR and NeXT have been of little help (ALR Tech support said that they did not even know that NS _ran_ on their machines!). Has _anyone_ out there either had the same/similar problems, or maybe has gotten a similar configuration _working_? If so, I'd really like to hear from you. -- Andrew White, Systems Manager : 351 McNeil Building : Two wheels good.

I realize that it's not entirely appropriate. I just compiled the gnu textutils on my NeXT. I'd like to use csplit on a file that has paragraphs all starting with "entry". When I try variations on csplit commands all I get is 2 files : One containing all the text up to to the first "entry" and a second with the remaining text, with many "entry"'s. Forgive my ignorance but how do I get this csplit to work, i.e. split the starting file many times? Here's an example of what doesn't work: csplit <theFile> /entry/ Thank you for your attention to this matter, ------------------------------------------------------------ Brian Osborne Plant Gene Expression Center bosborne@nature.berkeley.edu Albany CA USA ------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to be informed about the NeXt environement but since last Monday I've never used the "Magic Black Box". Actually, last Monday I bought (at a very very interesting price) probably one of the first NeXT. The configuration I have is : A NeXT with a 68030, 8Mb RAM, 600MB HD and an optical disk drive. No floppy, no CD-ROM. I have the NeXT environement 1.0, Interface Builder 1.0, Mathematica 1.0, ... Of course I'm happy because I realized a dream with this system, but I need some help. Because I'd like to upgrade my NeXT, I have so many questions : Is it possible to upgrade ? is it more expensive to upgrade this kind of configuration than to buy a PC and NEXTSTEP 3.1 ? Is it possible to find used parts ? For you who know very well this environement could you please send me some advise ? Thank you very much. ---------------------------------------------------------

Hacking around one evening I opened the Mail.app for a peek. Inside I found some interested objects and classes that are clearly meant to provide key encryption for NeXTmail. So have a look for yourself. Open Mail.app in your workspace using <command + shift + o> or use NextDeveloper/Demos/AppInspector.app for a look under the hood. Find the "EncryptKey" panel, the "cryptor" and "cryptbundle" objects and others. Interesting. Has anyone out there hacked a 'fully featured' NeXTmail using pgp23 as an encryption driver? Paranoid minds want to know. -Doug Goodwin -- -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.3 mQBNAiyrzRYAAAECAOzG1UphDyP7LFZes6/e7dy62lEH0MbpYsevT9GX+hTy5GzJ d47GQ3nxI7REYOMLnY/VGymDJINZco5EwWsE4l0ABRG0OERvdWdsYXMgUi4gR09P RFdJTiA8ZGdvb2R3aW5AY2FyYm9uLmRlbnZlci5jb2xvcmFkby5lZHU+ =9Hcz -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

The "solution" is either to make the package with 3.0 (which i > not possible for NS/FIP), or to manually install the archive, by > concatenating all tar files before extrcating them. The 3.1 Installer "package" script is not the problem. Installer "bom" (bill of materials) files changed from a textual format used in 2.X and 3.0 to a binary IXStoreFile-based format in 3.1. However, in 3.1 there is a bug in IXStoreFile that leaves a file descriptor for the backing file open after the IXStoreFile object is freed. This open fd prevents the ejection of the first floppy disk. Unfortunately this bug was not found until it was too late to fix for 3.1. It is fixed in subsequent releases. As mentioned in the included text above, NeXT recommends that developers use the 3.0 package script *in the case of multi-floppy packages.* The 3.1 package script does work whenever the package will not be distributed as a multi-floppy package. There is a downside to the workaround: m68k/i386 "fat" multi-floppy packages that are generated using the 3.0 package script must be installed fat by the customer since there is insufficient information in the textual bom to allow Installer to "thinstall" such a package. BTW, the 3.0 package script works OK under NS/FIP.

I was campus NeXT support until NeXT pulled their support from underneath me, so now I get along as best I can. I have a user who just called with a problem with Marble Teleconnect. He had a NeXTstation at home running 3.0 and decided to upgrade to 3.1. After he did so, the only thing he couldn't get back up and working was the M.T. software. He followed up with Marble, and they informed him that there was a problem with their software and the 3.1 kernel, so he was basically out of luck. They did not give him any indication that either a patch existed or that they would be fixing the problem. He called me in a panic, because he and others do real work on that system, and now he has no SLIP access anymore. Does anyone out there have either a patch for this problem, or know of alternate software he can use instead of Marble Teleconnect? If this is in a FAQ somewhere, just point me in the right direction.

I am wondering if there is a way (other than slip or PPP) to run X over a serial line (at 2400 baud). It seems to me that SLIP requires each user to be a IP node. This seems unnecessary since during telnet I am automatically given an IP number anyway...and running TCP/IP over serial line represents a lot of overhead for essentially graphical information. Is there an alternative that acts like,say, kermit in that it merely runs a serial session sending and receiving graphical info only? Thanks in advance Simon

I am not having any problems with incoming calls. However, I do have problems with outgoing calls that I initiate using e-mail. I must initiate the call with ftp, rlogin, or ping. I also re-installed Teleconnect but I am not sure that is needed. I've talked with Marble,too, and have gotten the impression that they will not be updating the Teleconnect product anytime soon, if ever. I have also talked with an engineer of the product who has been working on a v2.0 release. A much better product, more flexibility, good for dynamic IP addressing. Anyhow, Marble's consulting work is a higher priority than v2.0 of Teleconnect so work has stopped. Those are my impressions having talked with him. At this point, Marble needs some heat (phone calls etc.) and bad press on the Net to force them to complete the project. Also, another SLIP product needs to offered to compete or replace Teleconnect. Marble has been unsupportive, vage, and unreceptive to the needs of Teleconnect users. I do not recommand or support the purchase of their Teleconnect product for the NeXT community. DO NOT BUY THE TELECONNECT SLIP PRODUCT. I don't know about other Marble products, but Teleconnect is DEAD until we see some action from Marble. I would like to see updates of Teleconnect, as its GUI simplifies networking and is the reason I bought it. Is Teleconnect's failure a reflection of Marble's committment to other Marble products for NeXT community? - Tim - P.S. Marble bought the Touch.app from NeXT awhile ago. What ever became of it? Is it sitting on their shelf collecting dust? The Touch.app was a very intriguing piece of software that had lots of potential of making ftp sites transparent. Marble is fumbling the ball on this one. Looks like it'll never see the light of day. P.P.S. Marble gives me a bad taste in my mouth.

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to Michael Ross at antigone.com, the main NEXTSTEP groups are now available as a mailing list digest as well. next-nextstep-d next-advocacy-d next-announce-d next-bugs-d next-hardware-d next-marketplace-d next-misc-d next-programmer-d next-software-d next-sysadmin-d (For a full description, send mail saying LISTS to <digestif@antigone.com>).

This has been my experience with Marble in the past. A MUCH better implementation is Louis Mamakos DialupIP. Once DialupIP is set up, it just works. I've not had to tweak anything. New upgrades have been free and have also 'just worked'. If you want/need a commercial version of SLIP, get MorningStar PPP. It supports SLIP too, and they don't seem to be a 'Marble'ized company. If you just need SLIP use dialupIP. If you need CSLIP pay for dialupIP. -- - Scott Anguish - sanguish@digifix.com (NextMail) next-announce@digifix.com (comp.sys.next.announce submissions)

It seems to me that SLIP requires each user to be a IP node. This seems unnecessary since during telnet I am automatically given an IP number anyway...and running TCP/IP over serial line represents a lot of overhead for essentially graphical information. Is there an alternative that acts like,say, kermit in that it merely runs a serial session sending and receiving graphical info only? Yes, there is an alternative protocol which does exactly what you need called XRemote. The good news is that it is significantly faster than X over SLIP or PPP so that conceivably it might be usable for some simple applications even at rates as low as 2400 bps and that many of the more common terminal server already implement this protocol. The bad news is that I'm not aware of any XRemote client for the NeXT either as a standalone product or for use in conjunction with one of the available X servers. On the other hand it is worth pointing out that X over SLIP is surprisingly usable at 9.6 or 14.4 bps at least as far as text based applications like Emacs or Xterm are concerned. Carl Edman

I'm guessing that the real issue is quality (i.e., documents > scanned by fax machines usually come out pretty bad), but I'd love a > definitive answer. Offhand, I'd say the big issue is resolution. Fax resolution is at best 150 x 200 dpi, often unusable for any image save text. The Canon CJ-10 Color BubbleJet Copier can act as a scanner and color printer (and GS Corp., formerly Goldleaf, sells a NeXTSTEP driver for it). As a color printer/copier it's got the highest resolution in its price range (say , under $12,000): 400 dpi. Trouble is, that's its maximum scanning resolution, too. If you're going to work with high-resolution imagery for scientific analysis, computer graphics, or DTP, that's not enough. the pixels are too big. Dedicated scanners easily give you 800 dpi, and resolutions up to 2400 dpi are available. My $0.02, Steve Weintz scwg0600@sumter.cso.uiuc.edu

Message-ID: <155878@netnews.upenn.edu> Date: 20 Oct 93 00:41:11 GMT Sender: news@netnews.upenn.edu Organization: UPENN I was rather surprised and quite delighted to find that when I attempted to copy a large file on to a floppy disk, rather than telling me that there was not enough space the complete the operation the computer asked me whether I would like to create a compressed multi-volumed archive. Naturally I clicked yes and watched it go. I found two files (on two separate disks) with a .chunk extension and with a new icon. However, I could not figure out how to un-chunk these files. Double clicking only gave me the file inspector and unfortunately, there was no button like the ones which will uncompress and tar in the contents inspector. My uneducated guess is that a .chunk file is possibly a tar'ed, compressed and split file, but I didn't investigate that far. Does anyone know anything about this? I wasn't in the man pages nor in the little user manual which came with my 3.1 upgrade. Please email responses as I often miss articles on this group for some reason or another and I will summarize if anyone expresses interest. Thanks, Sam schoi@ccat.sas.upenn.edu -- "Die?

They continue to advertise Teleconnect in the magazines, but in my last conversation with them, I got the indication that there was to be no further development of Teleconnect. I like Louie's product, and his pricing philosophy, very much, and when used in conjunction with SlipCommander, it works very nicely indeed. I've not tried Morningstar's PPP as it is quite expensive. Has anyone tried the public domain PPP that's on the archives? However, like Tim Pugh, I liked Marble's interface, especially for monitoring log files. I think it would only have been polite to post to the net that Teleconnect was dead. Again, like Tim, I wish that "Touch" had been finished. I still use it (very gingerly, as you can completely hang your machine). However, if they don't want it, why not sell/give it to Millenium or Anderson to finish? I dunno.

Telemonitor generates some error messages in the console, but without any harmful effect. There are also some UI bugs but they don't effect the functioning of the software. I'm dissappointed with Marbles software support too. I prefered Marble Teleconnect over some public domain or shareware implementation of SLIP because I expected a commercial product to offer more support. Only one of three faxes with request for support was answered. Questions were answered only partly and support ended with the suggestion to read a book about TCP/IP network management. Also the answers to some questions were just wrong or at least very misleading. After days of reading about the black arts of sendmail and NetInfo and digging in the FAQ's of the comp.sys.next, I found out that two extremly simple actions (linking sendmail.cf to sendmail.mailhost.cf and getting a public domain POP mail client called PopOver) were sufficient to solve all my installation problems. This were the answers I had expected from their support engineer. If Marble is no longer interested in continuing the development of Teleconnect, perhaps they can sell their software to a company who is really committed to NeXTSTEP, produces outstanding NeXTSTEP software, writes fine manuals and gives real support.

We are using the normal array of NeXT's objects, including DBkit. During development and beta testing, we have been using Sybase as the database engine. Our group currently deploys all of it's DBMS efforts in Ingres. Some of our relevant 'enterprise' information is in these Ingres databases, and we have good Ingres support within our group. While Sybase is workable, Ingres offers more to us for this application and has some strategic importance in other areas. As such, we would like to port our NeXT DBkit applications to an Ingres Server engine as soon as possible. We are aware of the DBConnect for Ingres adaptor from Pentultimate: Development (and/or Rathe Inc., depending to whom you talk) and have evaluated it for our purposes. The current release of the Ingres adaptor from penUltimate only runs on the black hardware. Given the fact our client requires Intel support, we have had discussions with penUltimate and it's partners to provide support for Ingres code. Due to pressures within our own project timetable and other factors too lengthy to address here. We are attempting to reevaluate our options in locating/developing technology to address the need for a suitable Ingres adapter. Another option is of course to remain with Sybase as a database engine within this project but that would require significant effort to bridge the Sybase and Ingres repositories here. We are seeking answers from the net to the following questions: Is there another Ingres (version 6.4 compliant) adaptor available or nearly available for NeXTSTEP for Intel? If so, can someone comment on their functionality? Is anybody interested in building an Ingres adaptor? Are you holding back because there is purportedly one on the market? Are you looking for some purchase commitments before undertaking development? Are there other users of penUltimate's Ingres adaptor that are looking for Intel support, or other enhancements to the adaptor? Please email me with the responses... I will summarize and repost if there is enough interest. ------------------------------------------------------ Robert R.

Date: 21 Oct 1993 01:33:12 GMT Organization: The Ohio State University Distribution: inet Message-ID: <2a4oso$fmk@charm.magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu> About 2 months ago, I had posted requesting info on putting together an Intel system for NeXTstep. I received a lot of helpful replies, and I have successfully built a great NeXTstep system. I would like to share my experiences and hopefully help out some people. Please note that these are just my experiences and opinions, and that all information may not be correct. First, I tried buying systems directly through Epson and Dell. Epson would only sell a complete system, fully loaded without any flexibility, for over $5000. Dell was willing to break up their system, but their prices were uncompetitive; for a DGX system with 50 Mhz 486 and JAWS graphics, 16 MB memory, no hard drive or controller, no floppy, and no monitor, they wanted over $3100. I decided to take the plunge and buy a clone system and install each component separately. Please note that this is NOT a trivial undertaking. No matter how carefully you plan, you should be prepared for the worst. You can save yourself a lot of problems by researching carefully into exactly what components will definitely work with NeXTstep. I bought a copy of Computer Shopper and subscribed to the misc.for-sale.computers newsgroup. Here are the components you will need: 1. motherboard with CPU and cache memory 2. memory 3. hard disk controller 4. hard drive 5. video card 6. monitor 7. Floppy disk controller (may include serial/parallel ports) 8. Floppy disk drive 9. Serial/Parallel card 10. Computer case 11. keyboard 12. mouse Not necessary but recommended: 13. CD-ROM drive 14. Sound board Here are the specific components I bought. I will describe each in turn: 1. AMI Enterprise VESA/EISA motherboard with 256k cache 2. 32 MB 70NS 4x9 SIMM memory 3. DPT 2022/95 EISA SCSI controller 4. Maxtor 1240S 1.2 GB SCSI-II hard drive 5. STB Pegasus VL graphics card with 4MB VRAM, using the S3-928 6. Monitor ?? 7. GSI Model 21 16 bit IDE/Floppy/Tape controller 8. Toshiba 2.88 MB floppy disk drive 9. 15550 UART 2 serial/1 parallel card 10. Mid-tower case with 250 watt power supply 11. IBM/Lexmark keyboard 12. Logitech PS/2 Mouse 13. Toshiba 3401 CD-ROM 14. Pro Audio Spectrum-16 1,2. Motherboard & memory: Be very careful which motherboard you choose. NeXTstep/Intel will not work with some makes. Make sure you know how many slots the board has, its physical size, BIOS, and the type of memory it uses. You should be wary of ultra-cheap motherboards from little-known companies in Taiwan. You get what you pay for. I ended up purchasing an AMI Enterprise motherboard populated with 32 MB of memory, used, through the net. It is a full size motherboard with a 486DX2/66, American made, with 256k cache, ZIF slot, and 16 SIMM slots arranged in 4 banks (just like the original cube) which accept standard 30 pin 70 NS 1x9 or 4x9 SIMMs. It even has a PS/2 style mouse port directly on the motherboard. I highly recommend this motherboard. It has worked perfectly, the documentation is clearly written, and everything is carefully marked. NXBench gives performance figures of: 57034 dhrystones/s 36.21 VAX Mips 3,4. SCSI controller and hard drive: Currently, NeXTstep only supports three SCSI controllers: Adaptec, BusLogic, and DPT. SCSI is not required since IDE will work, but SCSI has the advantages of speed and expendability (with up to 7 devices on the SCSI chain). In addition, a SCSI CD-ROM is REQUIRED in order to install NeXTstep. I bought the DPT 2022/95 controller new through the internet. This controller replaces the DPT 2012 controller, and has options for daughterboards for disk arrays and disk caching with up to 64 MB of memory. It actually uses a Motorola 68000 on the board. Another new model, the 2122, is available which uses a 68020, I believe, and which gives even faster performance when 3 or more heavily used devices are connected on the bus. The 2022/95 includes a built-in floppy interface; the 2022/90 does not. NeXTstep does not support this built-in floppy controller. It is a 32 bit SCSI-2 controller and takes full advantage of the EISA bus with bus mastering. I bought the Maxtor 1240S SCSI-2 hard drive through the internet. It is a small 3.5" drive with a speed of 6300 RPM and very good performance as reported by several PC magazines. Together, the DPT controller and the Maxtor drive have given excellent performance. Disk access is extremely fast and reliable. DrivePerformance.app gives figures of: Write: 1.0 Read: 3.6 - 4.0 This is a relative index compared to the performance of a Maxtor P1-17 drive on NeXT hardware. Note that read times may be spuriously high because of the memory I have installed on the system (48 megs during testing). I am very happy with the speed. I had problems with RDB exceptions when first installing the system. It turns out that the DPT 2022 controller needs a ROM upgrade to work with NeXTstep, and DPT tech support was able to send me the chips through the mail (but only after promising to send the chips twice and eventually shipping it overnight). I also was having intermittent problems with errors for a couple of weeks, which actually corrupted my NeXTstep partition and forced a clean rebuild. I suspected the SCSI cable and slowed down SCSI transfers to a maximum of 5 MB/sec through the Eisa Configuration Utility program, and I have not had any troubles since then. Performance subjectively feels just as fast, and DrivePerformance gives similar figures compared to before this change. 5,6. Video card and monitor: NeXTstep currently supports a number of different local bus video cards with the exception of the Diamond Viper. The ATI Ultra Pro VL is a popular choice, but many people have commented on its lackluster performance. Using VESA local bus for video is faster than EISA. When looking for a video card, I was pointed to a new card from STB called the Pegasus VL. It uses the S3-928 chip, BrookTree 485 RAMDAC, and comes with 4 MB VRAM. I contacted STB directly, and they said they had already given NeXT an evaluation unit and support for the card should be available by October '93 (this was in September). I was assured that it was 100% compatible with standard S3 drivers and SVGA drivers. I decided to buy it through mail order. With the Pegasus installed, in NeXTstep, the updated S3 driver shows resolutions up to 1280x1024 color. Selecting any resolution other than 800x600 color or 1024x768 grayscale produces a horizontally and vertically unstable image, though the login panel can be vaguely seen. A NeXT tech support person recently said that the Pegasus VL should be supported under 3.2 or soon after its release in early November. Under Windows, it works perfectly at all resolutions up to 1280x1024 65K color and 1600x1200 in 256 color. Here's what the Nov. '93 Windows Sources magazine says about the STB Pegasus: "This VL-Bus board uses the S3 928 accelerator chip, and also contains 4 MB of VRAM and a Brooktree RAMDAC. Multimedia text, graphics, and video simply sizzled across the screen. In our graphics benchmark test, the Pegasus posted a score of 44,414,105 at 800 by 600 with 65,000 colors and 52,809,061 at 1,024 by 768 with 256 colors. It was barely edged out by the Matrox board for top honors (but only by about 4 percent) and blew by the hot Viper board by 17 percent." In this same article, they reviewed the ALR Evolution/Pentium system with an ATI Graphics Ultra Pro VL and gave figures of 13,952,904 at 800x600x65K and 22,389,222 at 1024x768x256 colors. The Gateway 2000 with the ATI GUP XLR had a Winmark of 17,524,120 at 1024x768 256 colors. I hope NeXT provides a driver to take full advantage of this card. Currently, running NXBench with the S3 drivers at 800x600 4096 color gives figures of: line: 0.67298 (Index compared to a 68040 NeXT cube with 2 bit gray) arc/bezier: 0.64987 fill: 0.51508 transform: 1.36327 composite: 0.53671 userpath: 1.44120 text: 0.49018 window: 0.26341 Overall: 0.74159 I don't have a final choice of monitor for my system. I need to sell my 21" NeXT Megapixel first before buying a monitor. Currently, I am using a 15" flat-screen monitor by Comtel (?), which gives very nice color. The picture at 800x600 color looks great, though a little cramped. 800x600 on a 15" monitor is definitely very usable for NeXTstep. 7,8. Floppy controller and drive: Any generic floppy controller and 1.44 meg drives are supported under NeXTstep. 1.2 meg 5.25" drives are not supported. There is no provision for 2.88 meg drives or auto-eject. I purchased a GSI model 21 hard/floppy controller and a Toshiba 2.88 meg drive through the internet. The GSI controller has intelligent firmware that can be set while booting the computer to handle up to 4 floppy drives, 2 IDE hard drives, and 1 tape drive. Under DOS, it accepts 720k, 1.44 meg, and 2.88 meg floppy disks. Under NeXTstep, it serves as a 1.44 meg drive. However, putting a NeXTstep formatted 2.88 meg floppy into the drive brings up the Initialize panel. If and when NeXT updates the floppy driver to support 2.88 meg floppies, this controller will hopefully be supported. The GSI is a 16 bit card, and reading and writing to the floppy disk subjectively feels faster on both DOS and NeXTstep than when using another controller. Configuring the GSI controller hardware was very difficult. The memory addresses used by the GSI controller have to be at a lower address than the DPT SCSI controller, and the 2.88 meg drive has to be attached to the connector on the card that does NOT have media autosensing. Only then would it work under NeXTstep. From talking to GSI tech support, this is a problem with every unix system. It took me about two weeks to get this to work, and I had to use a generic floppy controller in the meantime. If I were doing it again, I would probably buy a cheap generic floppy disk and controller without all the hassle. 9. Serial/Parallel card: I bought a UART high-speed serial card with 2 serial and one parallel port through the internet. UART (15550) serial cards will work reliably at higher speeds, 19200 and faster. With the updated serial drivers from NeXT, it has worked perfectly with my modem at 19200 baud as well as with a serial mouse. 10. Computer case: I bought the computer case from computer shopper. I made sure I picked a case that was designed for my full-size motherboard. I also looked for one that allowed easy access to the inside, and the one I chose is an extra-wide mid-tower with one side that hinges out. The front face-plate also pulls off easily, and by removing 4 screws, the entire mount assembly for the disk drives pulls out through the front for easy installation. It also has a hinged door on the front to hide all the drive bays when not being used. I'm very happy with it. 11. Keyboard: I originally bought a Lexmark slim keyboard directly from Lexmark mail order. The keyboard has a great feel to it, and a distinctive "click", but that's personal preference. It was expensive, but I was happy with it until it broke down after about 2 weeks during routine transportation. Lexmark was EXTREMELY UNHELPFUL in exchanging the keyboard. With their policy and attitude, I would never recommend anybody buying ANYTHING from Lexmark. Since then, I bought an original IBM keyboard locally - and at much lower cost. 12. Mouse: Although serial mice will work under NeXTstep, a bus mouse or PS/2 mouse gives MUCH smoother performance. It is definitely worth the cost difference. I bought a Logitech PS/2 style mouse from a local computer store. I connected it directly to the mouse port on the AMI motherboard after drilling a hole in the back of the case for access to the port (thanks, Chuck!). It works great, and I personally like the feel of the Logitech mouse. I would also recommend the new Microsoft mouse for its shape and feel, though it is expensive. 13. CD-ROM drive: NeXTstep works with SCSI CD-ROM drives as well as wit IDE. Again, NeXTstep can only be installed from a SCSI drive. Double speed drives give faster transfer rates (300K/sec), and PhotoCD, multi-session drives are supported by NeXTstep using the included PhotoAlbum program. I bought a Toshiba 3401 double-speed SCSI CD-ROM through the internet. I connected it to the DPT SCSI controller, and it works superbly with both NeXTstep and DOS. It is front-mounting with a caddy, and is auto-eject. It has a very conveniently located set of jumpers on the back of the drive for changing the SCSI id. The only trouble I've had is in using audio CDs under NeXTstep. Inserting an audio CD launches the CDPlayer program, but the track display is incorrect, no music plays, and none of the buttons work except "Stop" and "Eject". It works fine under DOS for audio CDs. I've tried changing the SCSI ids without avail. Hard drive as id 0, CD-ROM as id 1 failed; HD as id 1, CD-ROM as id 2 failed; HD id 0, CD-ROM as id 6 failed; HD id 1, CD-ROM as id 6 failed. 14. Sound board: Currently, the only board supported under NeXTstep is the Pro Audio Spectrum 16. Under NeXTstep 3.2, there should be support for additional cards. Many people have had great difficulty getting audio to work reliably under NeXTstep. I bought the ProAudio Spectrum-16 through the internet. I have been very fortunate in that it has worked without any problems ever since initial installation, using IRQ 5 DMA 7. The ProAudio Spectrum also has a mini amplifier and speaker built in, so it even works when not connected to external speakers. The sound quality under NeXTstep has been excellent. I've been very happy with it. Every internal CD-ROM has a custom cable for connecting the audio output to the sound card. MediaVision sells the cables for each type of CD-ROM separately through mail order. This cable routes the sound output from the CD-ROM through the sound card out to the speakers. I bought this cable directly through MediaVision. Impressions: I am very pleased with the NeXTstep system I put together. Every component of the system was carefully selected and works well. It would have been very difficult to have this system made through a company in Computer Shopper. Believe me, I tried! Once NeXT has drivers available specifically for the STB Pegasus, video should be faster under NeXTstep, at resolutions up to 1280x1024 12 bit color. 1600x1200 8 bit grayscale could also be very useful. With 4 MB VRAM, it is capable of 1024x768 24 bit true color. I have the 1.2 GB drive partitioned into 400 MB for DOS/Windows, 800 MB NeXTstep. I use both on a daily basis. Cost: Now for the important information! I won't include the vendor names, and I won't include tax and shipping, but just give general figures. AMI Enterprise VESA/EISA with 32 MB RAM (used) $1850.00 DPT 2022/95 EISA SCSI controller 270.00 Maxtor 1240S 1.2 GB SCSI-II hard drive 1100.00 STB Pegasus VL graphics card with 4MB VRAM 650.00 15" Flat-Screen Comtel Monitor 415.00 GSI Model 21 16 bit IDE/Floppy/Tape controller 65.00 Toshiba 2.88 MB floppy disk drive 65.00 15550 UART 2 serial/1 parallel card 35.00 Mid-tower case with 250 watt power supply 110.00 IBM/Lexmark keyboard 70.00 Logitech PS/2 Mouse 50.00 Toshiba 3401 CD-ROM 400.00 Pro Audio Spectrum-16 125.00 Audio cable for Pro Audio Spectrum 10.00 NeXTstep 3.1 eval 300.00 -------- $5515.00 TOTAL Add some money to upgrade to a 21" monitor. Subtract some to take out the CD-ROM, sound card, high-end video card, 2.88 meg floppy, and 8 MB memory, and you still have a very usable NeXTstep system at a great price. Summary: Overall, NeXTstep is an absolute joy to use on this hardware, and the people at NeXT should be commended for their creation. If there is any justice in the computer world, NeXTstep should succeed. It's that good! There is no comparison with Windows; NeXTstep is a hundred times more fluid and intuitive. I hope this will be helpful to some people planning on putting together their own system. It's a rocky road, but the end result is well worth it. Believe me!

First, I need to buy an external optical drive for my color slab. I'm looking for a 128meg capacity for under $1200. I've heard of companies like Pinacle, Fujitsu and PLI, but I don't know which one is best, where to get the better price, and what that price is. Also, the drive I get has to be plug and play from the SCSI port. Second, I am currently using PSI for my mail service, but I want to go to another service that offers a local telephone number in Connecticut. I am shopping for a service that would preferably be live internet access, but mail is OK. If the number was local I would be willing to pay up to $200 per month for live access. If anyone knows of a service either on the east coast, in Connecticut, or through a university, I am open to suggestions. Is there a list somewhere that has service listings? On the optical drive question, I would appreciate responses as soon as possible as I need to purchase the drive by the end of the week. Please send all replies directly to me. Thanks in advance for any help...and please excuse me if my posting is not appropriate for this newsgroup. Cheers, Christopher Traynor

From: tg@chmsr.gatech.edu (T. Govindaraj) Newsgroups: comp.sys.hp,comp.sys.next.misc Subject: HP/PA-RISC or 486/Pentium for NEXTSTEP, responses Date: 21 Oct 1993 15:02:27 GMT Organization: Center for Human-Machine Systems Research - Georgia Tech Distribution: world Message-ID: <2a68a3$v2@news.gatech.edu> Summary: Get 486; cheaper, NS already available. HP too expensive. Keywords: NEXTSTEP, PA-RISC, 486 Several weeks ago I sought net-wisdom to help me decide whether I should buy a 486/Pentium machine or an HP PA-RISC to run NEXTSTEP. I realize that NS is not yet available on the HP machines, of course. Since I am not fond of the '86 architecture, I thought I would buy an HP risc machine and take a chance on its running NEXTSTEP running well etc. After receiving several responses, which are appended to this article, and thinking over it, I am leaning towards buying a 486 machine. Among the reasons for my choice include: (1) NS is already available and has been running on it for a while, (2) architecture doesn't matter since I don't plan on doing any low level coding, (3) the extra price premium for Pentium is not worth it, since I can always upgrade latter, (4) HP is too expensive for me, and I don't know when NEXTSTEP will run on it, and (5) HP software is quite expensive. Therefore, unless some miraculous announcements from HP, NeXT, DEC, IBM, etc. come out soon, I will probably buy a 486 machine. :-) I appreciate all the help I received from the net. I thank Mark Hahn, Michael Graven, Craig Rasmussen, Steven McGrew, Nicolas Dore, Mark Sienkiewicz, Clay Goret, Peter Urka, Fons Rademakers, Derek Woolverton, and Olof Westman for taking the time to write. Your comments and ideas have been informative and useful. govind ______ Here is what I received from the folks mentioned above: _______________________________________________________ we've got a 735 and like it a lot. excellent FP performance, which I understand NS's display postscript uses a lot of. HP's frame-buffer implementation is also quite fast. don't buy one of the current machines, though, because there are probably quite a few nice low-end machines about to come out. > machine, which I believe is 715?

Am I crazy, or what? 1G -> 1000 32M -> 1200 display -> 1000 leaving less than $3800 for the computer proper. shouldn't be a problem. note that x86 machines make dandy unix boxes, especially running Linux. we have a $2000 gateway that's faster than the Sparc IPX's on campus. > Also, what about "hummingbird"? I haven't heard anything about it, even though it was described long ago in Microprocessor report. I'd think it would permit HP to make a nice $4000 machine to compete with alpha 21066-based machines and ppc. ..... (continuation in response to my question about 486/586) > options. If I don't mind the '86 derivatives and current > NEXTSTEP availability, I probably can't beat 486/Pentium > machines. Let's see what happens. with a 586 machine, you're paying a large premium for the newness. BTW, HP just increased their educational discount from 30% to 50%. _______________________________________________________________________ I've heard some rumblings around here that HP will be announcing some new machines based on PA-RISC in the *very* near future, i.e. before the end of the year. Supposedly, they'll blow the socks off the current 9000/7xx line at comparable or lower price. My source is a systems developer doing support for that new architecture. She wouldn't tell me more, but she was /very/ enthusiastic about this new machine's capabilities. It might be worth your while to wait a few more months: the prices on the current 9000/7xxs may be slashed in anticipation of the new release. That said, a fast EISA 486/50 with an accelerated card (ATI, etc.) and SCSI-II drives performs quite nicely, thank you very much. _______________________________________________________________________ The HP is a great machine with very nice software and is very fast. Definately beats a Intel machine. However, I don't think you can get one for much less that $10K, even with university discounts. _______________________________________________________________________ I have decided to go with a pentium machine. the ALR evolution V it is really quite nice. I have a Gig drive 16" flat monitor, 40 megs RAM and a 2 meg ati video card and get it all for around 7g's. Of course you could drop this by about 1000 by leaving out the graphics adapter and nicer monitor and perhaps going with a bit less RAM. I got the base configuration for a little under 2500$. It came with no drive no graphics adapter and 8 megs of RAM. Not a bad product at all. I have VERY few complaints. ....... (continuation in response to my question about monitor, disk, etc.) I have a Nanao F550-i-w and I like it very much. It has wonderful controls and a very flat anti-glare screen. I do think that the colors are a bit muted however that is a very minor problem. For the money I don't think that there is a better monitor out there (with the possible exception of the 5FG from NEC) however there is a large glare problem with that monitor. As far as drives go I have a toshiba (because of price mainly) I picked up a 1.2 gig for under 950$$. I think that maxtor drives are very nice as well as quantum drives. As far as the price primium for the pentium machines I think that you do end up paying a little more for the newer chip however as I said before I got a pentium machine for under 2500$ (stripped with 8 megs of RAM) that is not a bad price for 486 x66 machine with an ultra fast bus and design. I only have good things to say about my machine ALR evolution V. I wish it had an EiSA bus however you can't have everything. _______________________________________________________________________ Two comments: 1) Wait 'till Ns HP-PA is out until buying an HP machine: NeXT and HP have said all HP-PA machines will _NOT_ work with NS, so you might end up with an orphan after all. HP-PAs look nice, performance wise, thought... 2) By the time NS HP-PA comes out (Q2 94), NS should have been announced to other platforms (Alpha has been _forcefully_ confirmed to be by people who seemed knowlegeable, and PPC is always waiting in the wings...). That may widen further your horizons. But then, if you wait all your life, you'll always have reasons to continue waiting, and something better will always be around the corner. Ain't computers fun?!? Hope this doesn't confuse anymore. _______________________________________________________________________ > I would like to buy machine for >myself soon, even though I will continue to use the NeXT cubes. >I just don't like the Intel machines that are derivatives of the >'86 family, having been a VAX, Mac, and Sun person earlier. I would I don't like the Intel architecture, but I will admit that the 486's are pretty fast. I bought a 486 based PC to run a Unix-like system on and it works quite well. I use my HP710's and HP715's at work and I don't notice the difference in speed when I go home. I don't write machine code for either the HP or the 486, so the weird architecture doesn't bother me too much. 486 based Unix-like systems use only 1 segment of 4gb anyway, so you don't even see the worst of the architecture except when hacking VM code in the kernel. >So, here is the question. Would you recommend the low end HP (PA)RISC >machine, which I believe is 715? Cost is important, of course. With >a color monitor and about 24 or 32 Meg/1 gig hard disk, I would like >a machine that costs no more than about $6,000. Am I crazy, or what? If you want a color HP 700, you will spend far more than $6000. I considered buying an HP before I bought the PC clone. What I found was that I could have a grayscale HP 705 for roughly $6000, *assuming* the university could get me one at the educational discount. The color 710 was around $14000. Instead, I bought a 50 mhz 486 for $3000 and got the same amount of memory and disk as the HP, a color screen instead of grayscale, and expansion slots that you can plug cheap hardware into. I suggest you try Nextstep on whichever computer before you buy it. I tried Nextstep on the Next 68020 box, and it was just horribly underpowered. For example, it takes nearly a minute to log in. This may be bad configuration on the part of the local workstation labs, but you want to make sure the machine you are buying doesn't have similar problems. :) > (One >reason for thinking of this option is that if everyone else ditches >NeXT, I will at least have a decent processor etc.) You also might check out comp.os.386bsd.* and comp.os.linux for info on free unix-like operating systems for 386/486 machines. >One more question. Are software upgrades expensive? HP software was way expensive. It was $1200 or so for the C compiler for HPUX. Of course, educational discount is 90% (!). Good luck, whatever you go with. _______________________________________________________________________ I own (well, my office owns it actually) a HP 715/33. I have nothing but good things to say about it. It is extremely reliable and it SCREAMS. The machine I had before was a 425 (68040) and the 715 is easily twice at fast. There are also some 715/50 around the office and they are even faster. The prices for a 715 start around $5000, I believe. If it is in you budget, I could certainly recommend the 715 and the PA-RISC. As soon as the HP port is released, I plan to purchase one to give my color 'station at a home a helping hand. Hope I can afford one then :-). I have no affliation with HP or NeXT other than being a satisfied customer. _______________________________________________________________________ Hi, I read your thing in the c.s.n.misc and I thought I would regale you with fountains of advice and ask for a summary of your answers. 1. You might think about having to learn hp-ux, as that's what it's going to be based on, as opposed to bsd 4.3. 2. I saw an HP for $4000, but it had a puny hd and was mono about 4 months ago. 3. Please send me a summary or estimate of whether you think the HP route is the way to go, I'll be faced with the same decision soon. I wonder if NS/powerpc will be out by then though, if they release it. _______________________________________________________________________ a colleague and I both have bought privately a HP 700. I bought last year a HP710, 32MB, 19" color, 420 MB internal and 1.3 Gb external disk + DAT and my colleague both two months ago a 715, 16MB, 15" color, 525 internal disk. Personally I am very happy with the machine. At work I use a 720 with the same configuration as my 710. In the evening I take a DAT home with the latest version of my current project (not that I work every night -:)). A 710/715 is an extremely powerful single user WS. However, 32 MB are a minimum (third party upgrades go for about $1000 per 16 MB). Concerning software, the whole GNU suite works without problems. We both managed to get a 30% dicount. My colleague paid in the order of $7500. I paid quite a bit more (but I had a good sponsor). _______________________________________________________________________ There are several problems with the hp 715/33. First is price. You will not be able to get the system you listed for less than $10,000 and compiler/development tools are another $2,500. I don't know when or how much NeXT step will be for the HP either. There are options, but they require a lot of extra effort, and or friends who manage HPs and can load extra equipment (like CDROM drive) and offer advise. The only upsides are that a monocrome HP can be upgraded to a color system with the flip of a switch (not publicised by HP), and they are pretty fast machines. Less than an R4000 though. Maybe an ACER would be better. (running WinNT). _______________________________________________________________________ We have two four 720:s and two 715:s here. The 720 are 50 MHz and the 715 33 MHz. The processor in the 715 is younger and supposed to superscalar. If guided by the specmark figures of the two machines you can easily come to the conclusion that they have similar performance. 715 24.2int 45.0fp 720 36.4int 58.2fp Unfortunately there seems to be a LARGE difference in cache sizes. A 720 has 256/256kBytes but I do not have the specs for 715. Anyway the program I run which mainly consists of evaluation of sinus and fft:s takes between two and three times as long time to execute on a 715 as it takes on a 720. So maybe the 715 has not got such mean killer of a processor as you thought. If you just need integer performance I guess a 66MHz 486 is a potent rival.(I wouldn't know really). Our 715:s are configured as follows: 19" color (Trinitron) 32 MByte 525 MByte HD We paid something like $7,200 a piece. And I am under the impression that that was a pretty good deal. Universities have special discounts and the swedish universities had a deal that made it possible to use the pricelists from before the swedish crown lost 20% of its value. If you want to get a 1 megabyte harddisk and still pay only $6,000 I think you will have a hard time negotiating. My strongest argument against buying an HP is that you have to run HP_UX. But now that Next- Step will be available the 715 is probably a very nice machine. _______________________________________________________________________ T.

Gateway 2000 Motherboard Date: 21 Oct 1993 17:20:14 GMT Organization: Massachvsetts Institvte of Technology Message-ID: <2a6gce$ao7@senator-bedfellow.MIT.EDU> Let me tell y'all about my installation on the Gateway 2000 DX2/66 that I received two days ago. First of all, I saw a post about two weeks ago from Stefano Pagiola warning us that the newer Micronics motherboards that Gateway is now using are NOT NeXTstep compatible. I called Gateway at that time and they assured me that the only difference was a connector, so I let them deliver it anyway. So, the new machine arrives and I open it up to check out the motherboard. The new motherboard uses the same BIOS as the old one (Phoenix GJX-30), but all of the jumpers and DIP switches are different. The documentation that Gateway supplies is for the old one, so it is useless. So, too, is the NextAnswers Guide to the Gateway DX2/66. In particular, DIP switch #1 has exactly the opposite behavior as the manuals suggest, and Jumpers 6,7,and 20 have completely new assignments. Without changing ANY jumper settings or DIP switches, I tried to install NS on the machine. All I did was install my Adaptec 1542C and boot from the NS floppy. The installation went flawlessly. The system came up with the PS/2 keyboard and PS/2 mouse working. The ATI GUP - 2 MB VRAM does 1024 x 768 x 16 with no problems (note that I had to special order the VRAM version since Gateway is by default shipping a DRAM version now). I haven't tried the new ATI drivers yet. I ran it for about two hours, running all the demos, etc. without any RDP exceptions. With this simple configuration (Gateway DX2/66 + ATI GUP + Adaptec 1542C) I believe there are no problems. Before you get too comfy though, check out my next post.

If you read my previous post, you know that NSI installs flawlessly on the latest Gateway 2000/Micronics motherboard. However, whenever I try to add my 3COM Etherlink III to the system it fails miserably due (apparently) to problems with the Real-Time-Clock. Shortly after the boot process registers en0, I get a message like: en0: Timeout - IRQ8 After 5 or 6 of these, the machine generally seizes on an RDP exception. At first, I was tempted to blame either the new Micronics motherboard, or the particular one that I received. Then I swapped my NS Harddrive into another machine which was previously running OS/2 with no problems. The second machine was a Gateway DX2/66 with the PREVIOUS version of the Micronics GJX-30 motherboard, ATI GUP W/ 2 MB VRAM, and 3COM Etherlink III. This machine displayed exactly the same symptoms. Note that the only hardware moved to the new machine was the harddisk, so I know that none of the hardware is "bad." Hence, I conclude that there is a problem with the combination of the Gateway GJX30 board (new and old) and the 3COM Elink3. This is why I was unreserved in recommending the new board in my previous post. Now, the older GJX30 boards have been around for a while, so I must not be the first to run into this problem. So I beseech of y'all, Has anybody gotten ANY ethernet board to work with the GJX-30 Micronics motherboard? If it's just a problem with the Elink3, I'll go out and buy a different board. By the way, I also have at my disposal an older Gateway DX2/66 with the MCM2 chipset. On that system, the 3COM Etherlink 3 works well. If anyone out there has a GJX-30 motherboard working with an ethernet adapter of any sort, please E-mail me. I will summarize to the net once I get the system working. Thanks in advance. -- Robert Lutwak robert@amo.mit.edu MIT Atomic Resonance and Spectroscopy Laboratory ---- NeXTmail always welcome ----

The NeXT mail encryption system was finished and ready to ship. (It may have even been in a beta release). It turns out the government has export restrictions on cryptographic material under some kind of defense clause in trade laws. This means that NeXT could not ship the FEE based cryptographic system unless it was weakend in some way. I think there may have been a patent issue since the FEE key encryptio was done using some derivative of DES. NeXT could have shipped in the US but that would have required two seperate releases , one for US and one for the rest of the Galaxy. -- Joe Freeman FreemanSoft Inc.

Too many messages to reply to individually, I'm afraid. So I'm posting this summary to the dozens of folks who asked me to summarize my findings. Bottom line? I heard nothing but positive comments from real users who have bought and installed the product. The consensus seems to be that the GUPTA SQLBase is better than SYBASE. I was glad to hear this because our company has been considering buying the $2995 "Workgroup" package deal from PARABASE. The only complaints I got were of the following nature: "as with any high-level tool, every now and then you wish it was more flexible (i.e., programmable)" and a couple of complaints about being tedious to arrange format/fonts, etc. But as far as I am concerned, I am more interested in quickly cranking out some basic database applications for our NeXTSTEP network that don't force me to hire a database contract programmer. Everyone who uses the product seemed to praise its "programmerless" qualities and seems to put up with a few design flaws here and there. More important, really, than a committment to PARABASE for us is a committment to NeXTSTEP. We've enjoyed and benefitted from using it in our office environment for a few years. But with all the topsy-turvy stuff going on in 1993, we were beginning to question whether it was safe (or better yet, sane!) to stick with an OS that only 50,000 people use. The feedback we've gotten regarding PARABASE, plus the hope for products like PAGES, give us enough confidence to want to stick in there with NeXTSTEP for another round. So... bottom line -- we're ordering it. I hope others do too -- I like it when companies we buy from are getting lots of orders. That creates warm and fuzzy feelings, rather than RightBrain/ AppSoft anxieties :-). So, PARABASE, here we come! - bd brian dear / coconut computing, inc / brian@coconut.com

My university computer store carries NEXTSTEP but only the Intel version. They do not carry it for NeXT Computers at all and can't order upgrades for them (so they say). Apparently, NeXT or the distributor will not let them order it for NeXT Computers. Then I call the upgrade center in Buffalo and they say that there is no academic pricing on the upgrade at this time. Academic must pay $195 + $495 to upgrade to 3.1. I thought academic pricing for the entire thing was $249. What the hell is going on? Did I wait too long and now am doomed to this kind of pricing? Does $249 only apply to the Intel version?

There is no mouse movement and no response to the keyboard. ALT-NUMLOCK doesn't work either. I just have to power down and reboot. On a couple of occasions I have also seen RDP exceptions. I have a serial mouse on com1 IRQ4 and the modem is on com2 IRQ3. This is a hayes compatible 2400 bps modem. Has anybody experienced similar symptoms?

Yes, other people have the same problem and it has nothing to do with the NOVA cdrom. You say it only happens with the NOVA but the fact is that it happens with all the cdroms. Including a regular ISO-9660 PC only cdrom. I have similar problems with all the cdroms in my collection, including cdroms that worked great with 3.0 but no longer work properly with 3.1. These include the Internet Unplugged, The Big Green disc and even Walnut Creeks GIF Galore cdrom which is in ISO-9660 plus many others. For your information, these problems are with NEXTSTEP 3.1 on Intel and on Black hardware. Is use the NeXT hardware cdrom with exactly the same type of problems you are talking about. Let's hope that 3.2 will fix these problems. Eric "E.T." Tremblay Walnut Creek CDROM eric@cdrom.com or erictremblay@genie.geis.com (Author of the Nova CDROM)

The man pages for ntp talk about a driftfile (/etc/ntp.drift) so my guess is that I can set the driftfile manually and let the ntpd do the clock adjustments for me. I used strings to look at /etc/ntpd and my best guess is that the driftfile should contain 5 floats and an int. Can anyone verify this? What do the numbers mean and what's a good initial setting for clock that is slow? You are correct. The drift file consists out of five floats encoding the drift of the clock in the last five hours (newest first), followed by an integer specifying how many hours ntpd has been running. Positive floats describe a slow clock, negative floats a fast one. The size of the daily drift (in seconds) is the float multiplied by (86400/4096). Does anyone remember a similar post in the last year? No. So it can't possibly have happend. Of course considering that the great guru of NeXTdom, author of dialupip and ntp, Louis Mamakos himself is known to read this group, maybe I should not have answered this question. Darn.

Message-ID: <22534@news.duke.edu> Date: 25 Oct 93 18:30:49 GMT Sender: news@news.duke.edu Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find the answer there or in NeXTanswers. Involved here are two NeXTs--a 68040 Cube (my husband's) and a Turbo Color (mine), both running NS 3.1. My husband has SAS for NeXT running on the Cube. "SAS System" is one of the options available from the Services menu of the Workspace. For awhile we networked the two machines together with the Cube as a server and the NSTC as its client. Now that my husband and the Cube are both gone :-( and I've reconfigured the NSTC to be a standalone machine again, I'm puzzled as to why "SAS System" still shows up in the Services menu. I do not have the SAS software on my machine, so if I select one of the SAS services I eventually get an alert panel stating that the service cannot be provided. I've looked in /Library/Services and /LocalLibrary/Services, and don't see a sas.services file. I tried disabling the SAS services from the Workspace preferences, but they seem to re-enable themselves when I log out and back in. In pre-3.0 days there was a way of un-registering services like this altogether from the command line, and I tried that, too. Same difference. Can somebody tell me how to make my system completely forget about SAS?

So I wanted to give an update on the status of our printer driver DOTS. The latest version is DOTS 3.4.2 It supports both Motorola and Intel, as well as seriell and parallel interfaces (and SCSI for certain printers). In 3.4 we have dropped support for some low end printers (Epson and IBM proprinter compatibles) since the demand was very low. But the older version 2.0.3 that supports these printers is still available for NeXT Hardware. We are planning to add more printers in 3.5 (like most Canon bubblejet printers) and are considering to add the Epson and IBM proprinter drivers again. 3.5 should be available in Q1/94. Here is a list of the various printers that are supported in the current release (separated by pricing categories): monochrome printers: HP Deskjet HP Deskjet 500 HP Deskjet 510 HP Laserjet I, II, III, HP Laserjet 4 HP Laserjet 4L low-cost bubble jet color printers < 1,000 dollars: HP Deskjet 500C HP Deskjet 550C bubble jet color printers < 5,000 dollars: HP Deskjet 1200C HP PaintJet XL HP PaintJet XL300 special high quality color printers < 10,000 dollars: HP Designjet 600 HP Designjet 650 Seiko PhotoMaker Mitsubishi Shinko CHC-S445 color copiers < 10,000 dollars, incl. scan-module: Canon CJ-10 color copiers > 10,000 dollars, incl. scan-module: Canon CLC 300 Canon CLC 500 Pricing for DOTS starts at $149 (or 198 DM in Europe). When you buy DOTS you must specify, which printer you want to use. Licenses are sold per printer. Note that the pricing categories are similar to the pricing categories that NeXT has defined for the PostScript Output license, which is available from NeXT (pricing starts at $75). Our distributors are selling this PostScript Output license as a separate item to those customers, who want to use DOTS on non-NeXT Hardware. Please be aware that it is illegal to use DOTS on Intel-Hardware without the PostScript output license from NeXT/Adobe. This output license was originally included in the price of the black hardware. So NeXT Hardware customers don't need to buy one. Our U.S. distributor is: Alembic Systems International Ltd. 14 Inverness Drive East, Suite G-228 Englewood, Colorado 80112 303-799 6223 303-799 1435 fax info@alembic.com In Europe and Asia DOTS is available from most NEXT distributors and resellers. d'ART Software GmbH Virchowstr. 17-19 22767 Hamburg Germany (49)40-38023-0 (49)40-38023-290 fax (c) DOTS was written by Federico Heinz

Date: 25 Oct 93 22:50:14 GMT Organization: QUALCOMM, Incorporated; San Diego, CA, USA Message-ID: <jhough.751589414@herbie> Keywords: swap Hello! I have recently added another, much faster, hard drive to my NextStep system (3.1 for Intel). I would like to move my swap file off of the main drive, which is slow, to the new one, which is fast. I know that I can name the new drive swapdisk and it will use it, but this is a 329 meg drive, and I'd really prefer not to use the whole thing for swap. So, can I partion it somehow to have perhaps 60 megs for swap? I noticed some partitioning options in the DiskBuilder, but then a message came up recommending I don't partion it, and I thought I'd ask here first. So, how should I do this? Should I build the whole disk as swapdisk, and then just create a link in the private/swapdisk folder so that I can put other software out there? Also, when I run DiskBuilder, not calling the drive swapdisk, it wants to install about 76 megs of software on the drive. I really dont want to do this. Is it really necessary? Or maybe DiskBuilder isn't the program I want to use? HELP! Thanks in advance... Jason -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason Hough | jhough@qualcomm.com

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.)

I have a standalone Turbo Color at home running NS 3.1. I just bought a DoveFax modem, but I don't think the modem has anything to do with my problem. I have the latest version of kermit. I have my .kermrc file set up as follows: set file type binary set file name literal set prompt NeXT-Kermit> set line /dev/cub set modem hayes set sp 2400 dial tnnnnnnn <--- where nnnnnnn is the dialup number I want to use connect If I'm logged in as myself and enter "kermit" from a shell prompt, I get some message about "access permission denied for device /dev/cub" (that's the port I've got everything set for and that the modem is plugged into). If I change everything to use /dev/cua, same difference. If I login as root and try it (same .kermrc file), it works okay. But having to login as root to dial out is unacceptable. The owner of /dev/cua is uucp, group wheel, and permissions are set for owner read and write only. I experimented by changing the permissions to give group and other read and write access, and that worked--but once again, this is not acceptable since I shouldn't have to do this. I've dinked around with PrintManager but nothing seems to help. Can somebody give me a clue?

What I am concerned about is the support that I could expect to receive, if I need any. Does NeXT still support the hardware in terms of service, or is it Cannon? I would also appreciate any coments about the amount of software available, the quality of the software, etc. If I bought a machine with OS Release 2.x, how much would it cost me to upgrade it to 3.x Developer? I have read somewhere that all machines come with ALL software on a CD ROM, even if the installed hardrive allows for the 'small' release only. Does this mean that I could simply buy a larger harddrive and install the complete developer package from CD ROM, or would this be in violation of the licence? Finally, I was curious if the GDB debugger is the 'plain vanilla' version or if NeXT has provided a graphical front end for it... Thanks in advance for any responses. Please reply in email if possible, since I don't follow this group very often. Pete. ---------- Peter Twarecki b7ns@musicb.mcgill.ca petet@emf.lan.mcgill.ca

So i'm hoping some kind soul will supply me with the proper pricing for the 3.1 upgrade. What I need, is to upgrade 10 machines from 3.0 -> 3.1. What is the educational price on this? What does it include? Is it the developer + user all bundled together, or are they separate. If they are separate, what is the pricing? The idea of having 20 different CDs sitting around and cluttering my already small computing area isn't very appealing, so is it possible to buy 10 licenses and only get 1 set of CDs? Is there someone at NeXT I can e-mail for all this info? Thanks alot for the help!

Can someone tell me how to use the DOS partition created by the NS/FIP installation ? I just installed NS/FIP and told the install program to create a small DOS partition. Everything else went fine. Then I tried to use the DOS 6.0 icon in the Workspace Manager and .... it failed ! the ugly "abort retry fail" in the command.com window. I then eventually shut down and rebooted, chose dos and .... it failed! First it said "Starting MSDOS..." and it just stuck. So I tried to reboot and the boot prompt would not accept ANY keyboard input etc..... I am currently re-installing NS (68% done!) and hope someone can tell me how I can use the tiny little DOS partition that NS created. Any help is greatly appreciated. -- Dave Duling net. duling@niehs.nih.gov tel. 919-541-3381

Using the boot floppy from 3.1 and the CD rom drive and the 040 mother board configuration to try to build my hard disk, the peripherials are recognized (the disk name, cd rom drive name and the 3.1 developer disk appear in the intial boot up sequence), but after building the disk from stratch the moniter says "sc: message REJECT RECEIVED" numerous times. Next it returns "This is going to be a build from scratch? yes or no. And then there are several other questions about the installation. Once these are done and the disk is initialized the upgrade process begins. I can see the CD drive reading and the hard disk attempting to write. It starts by writing usr/standalone/boot but it never successfully completes this procedure. The reading writing sequence goes on for several minutes but never gets past usr/standalone/boot. 2. Next an attempt was made to build a disk using a 2.1 optical to the hard drive and the orginal 030 motherboard. The build was successful, but when the default device was changed to the hard disk for bootup the system would not boot up all the way and eventually went into the mini mach window. 3. Using the 040 motherboard the system would not boot up completly using 2.1 from the optical. the system checks were successful but the login panel would not come up only the mouse. The system will boot up in single user mode. The same OD would boot up correctly with the 030 board installed. I have checked the SCSI termination and I think it is correct.

Is it worth it? I am relocating to NY. My roommate will use his machine (MAC) online quite a bit and so will I. I have a NeXT, BTW. So it seems to use that ISDN could be quite nice. The Nynex salesperson said that an ISDN line (both data channels and the one voice) is less expensive than with two regular telephone lines. Does anybody know if this works out to be true? What about internet service providers? I am on Netcom now with a personal account and had been considering a SLIP PNC. Netcom is not in NY yet but they told me "soon". I don't see anything about ISDN in any of their materials. Is the cost similar (let's say to a SLIP PNC)? What about other service providers in the NY area? Panix? What about equipment? I understand that Hayes has an ISDN Extender (?) for the NeXT. Does it work? What software does it use? I currently use Microphone Pro and NXFax with my ZyXel modem. So, also, what about Faxing? Sorry about all the questions but I need to decide quickly and I can't think of a better place to ask. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

We do not have prices for participating but want to get an idea as to the interest level. ANDI members will receive special discounts but catalog submissions will be accepted from any interested party. Since our experience at tradeshows has been one that indicates that there are a lot of people who are interested but not currently using NeXTSTEP we plan on putting out a print version. We will put an electronic copy on the ANDI InfoServer. We are looking at producing this 4 times a year with publication centered around our tradeshow schedule. The goal is to produce a good looking, but low cost (for both ANDI and you) catalog in print that we can afford to give away by the 1,000's. We have found that people want to pick up something which will let them read about NeXTSTEP as well as what 3rd party Apps and services are available. As part of the catalog we would look for a member price, list, and "other" (such as educational, government, etc.) price. We are also working with a company who is interested in acting as a wholesale distributor/fulfillment house. Paget Press and NeXTConnection are setup to handle the current retail buyer. We are trying to help set up a channel for the reseller and help direct the buyer to a reseller or wholesaler, which ever is appropriate. To this end, we might also ask for a separate wholesale price which would be a separate document to go only to resellers. If you are interested send mail to:marketing@andi.org In the subject field: ANDI catalog - yes You may provide us with any feedback you like. We will put you on our list to receive more info as it becomes available. --- Bill Strehl Executive Director Association of NeXTSTEP Developers International For information about becoming an ANDI member: reply to:membership@nextsrv1.andi.org or call: 301-681-0613

The problem occurred because the term measures time in 20ths of a second, so it multiplies the seconds since 1/1/70 GMT by 20 to get internal time. What happened? You guessed it! Yesterday, near 12:08 am PDT, 20*time wrapped and became -MAXINT, throwing the program into chaos. I had an exact patch from the author for this, but, unfortunately, I threw it away since I had already fixed my version myself. Your second choice is to get the newest version, 1.08, rushed out to fix the time problem. It also has some new features. Beware that it uses a slightly different protocol and I don't know how much testing it was able to receive in light of the emergency. v1.08 can be found at tartarus.uwa.edu.au:/pub/oreillym/term/term108.tar.gz I didn't check to see if it has been copied to the other archive site.

We really miss that emphasis on gameplay rather than glitz, so we've decided to write our own adventure games along the lines of the early text games we liked so much. If you're looking for top-quality interactive fiction comparable to 1980's commercial offerings, check out the Unnkulian Unventure series, available from an archive site near you! In _Unnkulian Underworld: The Unknown Unventure_ you play the part of Kuulest's slave, and must recover the Orb of Studosity from the evil Unnkulians. Kuulest, the old geezebag, has died and left you with nothing to go on but a cryptic message about saving the planet. You'll encounter amazing Acme products, the infamous Guardian, those witty creatures known as Drolls, a giant beaver, and even the Dread Unnkulian Warrior. <Gasp!> In _Unnkulian Unventure II: The Secret of Acme_ your adventure continues as you try to create some good press for yourself -- wouldn't want to fade into anonymous obscurity, now would you? Along the way, you'll find the answers to these compelling questions, and more: o What happened to the Unnkulians? o Why are Acme products so bad? o What is this cheez stuff, really? Plus, you'll get to explore Dawg Rock, a Duhdist Retreat, Acme's clandestine prototypes laboratory, and even pay a visit to Acme HQ. In _Unnkulia One-Half: The Salesman Triumphant_, you'll play the role of a down-and-out Acme salesman, forced to work out of the Golden Dragon Inn, dangerously near Dread Unnkulia. Will you accumulate enough loot in this frightful backwater berg to turn your fortunes in your favor? And, in _Unnkulia Zero: The Search for Amanda_, will you, the Valley King's most trusted warrior, rescue his Lady Amanda from the gruesome clutches of the evil Unnkulians? The Unnkulian Unventures have already gotten rave reviews from numerous adventure game connoisseurs around the world, so why not give them a try? The games are available for FTP from the if-archive at ftp.gmd.de. (Note that the site wuarchive.wustl.edu keeps a mirror of the if-archive in the mirrors directory.)

Message-ID: <16196@ceylon.gte.com> Date: 27 Oct 93 20:51:02 GMT Sender: news@ceylon.gte.com Followup-To: comp.sys.next.advocacy Organization: GTE Laboratories, Waltham, MA when you're comparing Windows and NEXTSTEP development, don't do the "apples vs. oranges" thing. be realistic; look at the best each has to offer. straight Windows SDK stuff with a C compiler and a text editor is probably quite miserable compared to something like Interface Builder, Project Builder, the on-line RTFD manuals, hyper help, etc. but take a look at Visual Basic (or Visual C++, if you can stand that "other" non-standard C language). :) you don't quite drag and drop controls; you select a desired control from a palette (like MacDraw) and then drag out a rectangle where you want it, then move it, resize it, etc.. you have an interactive property/value sheet that lets change any of a control's exported properties. if it's not a string-settable property (like a color or a picture) the "right" tool comes up to let you set it. you click "view code" and an object browser comes up, where you can go to any object and add code to its public event handlers. you can send a message to any object in your app, set and get its variables, and invoke methods, all from an INTERPRETED environment (speaking here of Visual Basic); you don't compile until you're ready to ship the app. as you type each line, it gets checked for proper syntax and often semantics (like, "object X doesn't have a property called Y"), and any errors are immediately pointed out. comments show up in green, keywords in blue; nice. if you forget how to talk to an object, pop up the on-line hypertext help system. pop back and forth between specs using hot buttons embedded in the text, make your own bookmarks, etc. this is analagous to the new NeXT help system, but it is simply more widespread in the Windows world; practically every app and even Windows itself use this feature. you can also extend the environment with perhaps 300 independent 3rd-party add-ons, custom controls, and libraries. yes Virginia, an object marketplace! need embedded spreadsheet functionality, a la Mesa? no sweat, there's a custom spreadsheet control with support for formulas, embedded controls, pictures, formatted text, etc, and a few hundred properties, events and messages so you can customize it like crazy. need a multi-format image viewing control? no sweat, there's at least three such controls listed in the VB "catalog." these add-ons just appear in your tool bar, ready to drop into new apps. you can also load dynamic link libraries (DLLs) at run-time, and call compiled C functions from your Basic code. there's even an OLE 2.0 control for embedding native productivity-app documents (Word, Excel, etc.) inside your VB app. then there's the fact that MS is embedding little object-oriented basic-derived scripting languages inside its productivity apps, and will soon (someday!) integrate them all as "Object Basic" as a slight superset of the Visual Basic language. my understanding is you can do multi-app automation right now from inside Visual Basic. there's also built-in support (in the Professional Version) for relational databases, either local or remote (using ODBC). the "native" format is of course Microsoft Access, but others such as dbase and Foxpro are supported. you can also talk to remote servers over the net, for databases like Oracle. you get a consistent table and record oriented view of these databases independent of vendor. you also have "data control" objects and "bound controls", that automatically update themselves to show information pulled from the "current record" in the attached database as you scroll back and forth. you can make SQL queries to any of the supported DBs. now, don't get me wrong; there's no doubt that NEXTSTEP and the AppKit and DBKit are far more powerful, can do a lot more, are more versatile, and of course look and feel better. but in the easy ramp-up category, I think NeXT could learn a few things here to reduce time to market on those MCCA's. :) in particular, having a SIMPLE interpreted language that is COMMON to all apps and runs inside the development environment (IB) is a very big win. HyperTalk doesn't cut it, but a true object-oriented language even as simple as Basic is a step in the right direction. NeXT itself must set the standard here to avoid confusion! I believe something like GNU Smalltalk would be great, although it is probably too awkward for the beginning programmer to un-learn the traditional if-then-else, do-while type of control blocks. I understand the difficulties of creating an Obj-C interpreter, and am NOT suggesting that at all. take a look at Xanthus' Craftman language as an example. very important to have full access to AppKit objects via the standard Obj-C messaging interface. also, must be able to dynamically load foreign C libraries and call in and out from the interpreted layer. and of course, full transparency with Distributed Objects is a must. also, the indexing kit and DBKit are fabulous; but there needs to be a VERY INEXPENSIVE record-oriented dbase-type library (or possibly server!!) that comes bundled with the developer system so you can try stuff out and develop simple db apps without investing several thousand bucks in a professional-class database server product from Oracle or Sybase (that has to run on yet another machine, too!). my apologies here if the latest indexing kit can do this; I haven't had time to upgrade yet. Visual Basic comes with a very simple form that lets you create and edit a Microsoft Access database (but with multiple tables, multiple indexes) right from the main menu. to do anything more complex, you need to buy the Access software; but you can get started without it, right out of the box. the key is to provide a library, but no user interface. just wanted to get a few more plugs in before that NS 4.0 feature freeze ... :) --Russ rs05@gte.com

Is it worth it? ... After quite a bit of start-up hassle I have been happily using my ISDN line for a few weeks now. 38.4K is noticeably better than 14.4K, especially for ftp's. My setup: NextCube, 68040, 25MHz, NeXTSTEP 3.1 AT&T 7506 ISDN phone (about $800, I think) Louis A. Mamakos SLIP (Dial-Up IP 920904) [Available as SLIP_920904-A.tar.z at cs.orst.edu] Things are not as smooth as I'd like, mainly because I have to go through a SecureID interface when logging in. Also, I still haven't been able to get the AT&T phone to take the line down when I take the connection down (I am trying to get more doc's on the phone). Right now, I am in a trial (Bellcore), so I don't have any out-of-pocket $$. I will consider picking up the line when the trial ends, but NJ Bell doesn't make it too attractive at the moment. The line costs $35/month, which would be OK (my regular line is <$10 + tax), but they also charge message units since it is a business line. They apparently don't think there is any residential market for ISDN -- I hope to change their minds. What didn't work: Marble Teleconnect Not certified for 3.1 (seems to work, but gives errors during booting) Can't be configured to get through SecureID A new version would solve my problems, but has no projected date. Hayes Extender Designed to work under the PhoneKit, which NeXT has dropped. If someone picked up PhoneKit & upgraded it to handle National ISDN-1 (which is now the standard), this would be a great way to go. The Extender uses the DSP port & so can (I think) exceed the 38.4K limit of the serial ports. It is also a lot cheaper than the Adapter or the AT&T phone. I haven't explored faxing options yet. Does anyone know if you can communicate faxes with non-ISDN phone cites? > The Nynex salesperson said that an ISDN line (both data channels and the one > voice) is less expensive than with two regular telephone lines. There are various ways to configure ISDN, but I think the lowest level (cheapest) service is one D channel + 2 B's. Mine is configured with one B for voice and one for data. The D is not for voice, but can, I understand, but used for faxing. So, I don't think you can run two data sessions at the same time & still talk on the phone. I am no expert on this & would welcome corrections and more info. jim burns -- :::Note!! Please send any replies to burns@nova.bellcore.com James E.

CS Dept, Ithaca NY 14853 Date: Thu, 28 Oct 1993 16:38:23 GMT Individual Nextstep users who run on a Gateway box are the select few, the brave, the proud... But increasingly we're feeling a little isolated, and sheer bravery and pride don't seem to suffice to get a system running smoothly. Since Gateway does not know anything about Nextstep, and the folks at NeXT can't keep compatibility information up to date with a quick and nimble clonemaker like Gateway, I thought it might be useful to organize and share information among Nextstep/Gateway users. For example, who knows which ATI Graphics Ultra Pro variant really works best under Nextstep? What happens next week when ATI releases Yet Another Chipset? Which CD ROM players work with Gateway and Nextstep? Has anybody installed a sound card that works? Why do machines fail to boot up sometimes; is something configured wrong? Why doesn't my new high speed modem work? NeXT won't answer these questions unless we pay. Gateway can't answer these questions at all. But all of us users seem to be going through the same process, over and over again, so invariably some of us can answer these questions for each other! So I'm putting together a mailing list of Nextstep Gateway users. I'm willing to initially collect and share email addresses, and I will try and set up an ftp site of useful files for anybody who sends me a note, but I don't have the expertise to set up any fancy automated listserver or any such thing. Anybody else willing to help? If you're interested in being on the list, send me a note, and in a week or two, I'll send you all back a list of all the email addresses and a summary of any interesting Nextstep/Gateway comments I've gotten.

The process seems completely straight-forward. I must have something incorrect, although I cannot see what it is. When I start X using Xfe, the screen goes dim (black) but nothing happens. If I use the dimmer control button to "undim" it, I can see that the spin cursor continues for 10-20 seconds and then the App stops and disappears. I can find no msgs in /usr/adm/messages. This sound familiar to anyone? How can I see any error msgs that are being generated ? I am using the default options to Xnext (-bs -su). Yes, I did the chmod to /dev/vid0. The .xinitrc file has almost nothing in it. It works with the co-Xist demo. I'd appreciate any ideas you might suggest. Thanks

Using that and dremove Mail MailMarker will put you back to your original settings (well, it did for me so I assume it would for you). MailMarker and MailFilter are _not_ listed as part of a dread -o Mail unless you set them, so there are defaults which Mail.app will use if there is no specified MailFilter or MailMarker, just in case something goes awry. You can remove the changes if they do not give the desired effect, and just go back to your original defaults.

When I wrote the code that maintained the /etc/ntp.drift file, the intention was to have the ntpd daemon process read the file when it was started, rather than having to recompute the drift from scratch everytime the system was booted. This allows the logical clock's phase-locked-loop to lock faster with the result of much less jitter on the local clock offset since there are fewer frequency corrections that would need to be applied. It never occured to me that you would want to use ntpd to read this file and maintain your clock, without actually peering with a remote system. I don't know how well this would actually work and I know that *I've* never tested it to work that way. >You are correct. The drift file consists out of five floats encoding >the drift of the clock in the last five hours (newest first), followed >by an integer specifying how many hours ntpd has been running. >Positive floats describe a slow clock, negative floats a fast one. >The size of the daily drift (in seconds) is the float multiplied by >(86400/4096). Carl's explanation is correct. If all you want to do is apply corrections to your clock, you might just consider hacking a 10 line program that just invokes adjtime() periodically.

I would like to digitize some CD samples, but hanging a microphone over my stereo speakers seems awkward at best (and low res at worst). CD samples are _already_ digitized. Going through a DAC and then a ADC is not going to improve sound quality. Fortunately some CD drives, notably the Toshiba 3401, the Apple CD300 and the NEC [78]4-1 (and presumably the latest tripple and quadrupple speed versions hitting the market now) can read digital audio data right off the CD and transmit it digitally to the host computer over the SCSI bus without any extra hardware needed. Unfortunately these drives implement that ability incompatibly so that you'd need a different program for every one of them. To the best of my knowledge example code on how to do this is only available for the Toshiba 3401 in the play3401 package to be found on cs.orst.edu and nova.cc.purdue.edu. Carl Edman

First, after booting off of the next floppy (installation), I have to hit return after the "boot:" prompt, and then unplug the keyboard, or it won't work later (or so i've found - someone told me that you had to do that on the old Gateways to get the keyboard to work). After booting, i've got to eject the floppy disk as soon as "Resetting SCSI bus..." appears, or installation won't go through. NS then recognizes the cd rom. Then, it tries to "Register: hc0". It hangs there for a long time, _unless_ i plug the keyboard back in, when it will immidiately say "ide: Read error: status=0x58 error=0x0 cyl=0x0 sec=0x1 drhd=0xa0" and then it will try to "Register: hc0a", where it will one again hang, until i plug the keyboard back in, and the same ide read error is then displayed. After all this, it finally gets to the part about the language & the options. I answer all of the questions, and then allocate either all of the hard disk space or some of it to NeXT (i've tried both). During this process, i get the same "ide: read error" a few times (when selecting the disk, and in another spot). After it attempts to initialize the hard disk, i get the ide read error again, and the system closes up, saying that the hard disk can't be initialized. I've got a plain ol' IDE card, and a western digital 340mb hard disk. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be the problem? thanks a lot, dan

I've never understood why folks don't frame their request by asking who would be willing to send something rather than asking that something actually be sent.

NextStep hosted by Richard Hart (I think that's his name). While it is (IMHO) an interesting show, it is *not* a program about NEXTSTEP. It *is* a program about (all sorts of things) high tech things. The funny thing is that this program originates from the S.F. Bay Area (channel 4, I think).

I believe the problem is that tmpnam() is broken on NS (correct me if I'm wrong here...), and that's why you wanted to override it. Since tmpnam() is only called twice in all the tcl 7.0 sources, it's easy to fix (i.e. change compat/tmpnam to some unused name, and change the two calls to call it appropriately). Note I only run tcl under NS, not Tk. If anybody's interested in getting Tk-like functionality into IB, drop me a line.

In order for a patent to hold, you must have a patent in each country that is involved. Even if you apply e.g. trough the European Patent Office for a European Patent, it decays after it is granted into a bundle of individual patents each valid only in a particular country. While copyright protection may be a supplemental protection, it is independent of the patent and cannot protect ideas or concepts but just a particular incarnation. If copyright could do what you imply, you could be sure that Lotus would be suing every single company producing spreadsheets, not just the ones that copied Lotus' menu structure. >> b) NeXT was stupid enough to develop the stuff here rather than >> in Europe.

While there exist technology export restrictions for high technologies in the countries you mentioned, which also may be applicable to other parts of NeXTSTEP, the export between the different member counties is not restricted other than that the ultimate destination has to remain with the treaty countries. The encryption export laws of the US are particular and have hardly anything to do with said association and has more to do with unnamed 3-letter organizations in this country. Export of encryption technology, in particular software, between member countries is legal. That's why GNU crypt, which was developed in Denmark is available freely in the whole world as long as you get it from a ftp site outside the US. You are also allowed to import it into the US, however once on a US ftp site, it may never again leave the borders of the US. Obviously this is exactly the situation I was talking about, it's publicly known and perfectly legal. Even the OSF had to do similar tricks to implement certain OSF/1 features, otherwise they had been restricted to castrate OSF/1 in the international marketplace. Even worse, US laws officially don't even allow the export of encrypted documents and files. So watch out when you carry these encrypted love letters on your laptop's harddisk over the border... > A US company could not use its branches abroad to violate a US law. > For instance, it is illegal for IBM-Canada to sale something to the Cuba. > Once, the Canadian Government has been an intermediate between a Canadian > susidary of a US company to sale to Cuba but for the US Governement that > constitute a violation of US laws and any person (including > the Minister that have conducted that affair) is subject to be emprisoned > for that violation.

This is part of US American hybris that makes them so unpopular in many countries around the world. By definition the sovereignty of a country ends with its borders. The US constantly try to extend their jurisdiction to where they should shut the fuck up. This is what I'd call abusing super power status when there are more than one measure of what's right and what isn't. Ever though how the US would react if e.g. Switzerland (which is so tiny that most Americans don't even know to distinguish it from Sweden) would try to enforce it's laws on US territory??? A foreign company is and should be subject to the countries laws where it is located in. The fact that a US company holds the majority or the total of the shares of such a company is none of the USA's business. -- Ronald ============================================================================== "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

First of all, you need to grab tcsh from the archives. Once you have it, try it by just executing it and decide if you like it. If you still would like it as login shell, then you need to change entry in the password file which says /bin/csh You can change this entry using niutil or Netinfo Manager.

Message-ID: <1993Nov4.201436.10918@news.nd.edu> Sender: news@news.nd.edu (USENET News System) Organization: University of Notre Dame Date: Thu, 4 Nov 1993 20:14:36 GMT I have a Next Cube (040 turbo, ND board, color) running NS 3.1. My problem is that when I reboot, the machine sometimes hangs after the message 'NBIC present' is displayed. The way I usually get around this is to completely power off and this seems to fix the problem. I think I have also gotten past the problem by rebooting without powering off. Is my NBIC chip about to go? Is it something with the SCSI stuff (the next thing to be checked in normal boot are my SCSI devices, I think). Under normal conditions, my boot display is as follows NBIC present fc0 at 0x2014100 (other stuff about my SCSI devices comes next) The online help doesn't give much info on this except to say the NBIC controls the NextBus. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. -george George B.

Do I need any other software to do that, or should I create sort of a script file for that? In fact, the main trouble is because the Gopher has hostnames built in and I cannot change them into IP addresses because it came without the source.

I didn't do the CPP thing nor the MATH_LIBS... for the tmpnam problem, I did the following: I added '#undef L_tmpnam' in tclUnix.h just before the '#ifdef L_tmpnam' -line.

I have run across a problem with support of Macintosh file systems. This problem manifests itself on 3.0 and 3.1. I have a Macintosh disk full of font files. The file names are all variously GraphiteYakYakYak.bmap or names like that. All the information in either Type 1 font outline files or in bitmap (screen font) files is stored in the resource fork, so when I wish to access the data in the resource fork, I must access the above mentioned file using the name GraphiteYackYack.bmap.#rsrc#. There appears to be some limit [looks like 31 or 32 characters] imposed on the length of the file names. The limitation doesn't normally occur with a name like GraphiteRegularOblique.bmap, because this name is less than 32 character long, but when I append the .#rsrc# the name exceeds the limits, and then I can't access the resource fork, either from the command line, or from an open or fopen from within a program.

I got a strange problem with my Wangtek W5525ES. Normally it works ok, but sometimes I get into the following situation: writing to tape gets very slow, the tape is winding back and forward (I don't know for sure but it sounds this way) in short intervals. In the meantime it is nearly impossible to do any other work because every disk access is very s.l.o.w. (more than 10 seconds each access!!!). I tried several things like - CTRL-C, mt rewi/mt rewoffl and starting again - changing the tape... The only thing that helps is power-cycling the streamer. After that, everything is fine again (same tape, same command). I suspect the drive getting in trouble internally, but can it be caused by the driver? What can I do to avoid it? A solution could be to reset the tape drive programmatically, but how? Any hints appreciated. PS: I was using gnu-tar to write on the tape. -- Axel Habermann \\|// "Wenn Du nicht kiwi@belly.in-berlin.de (NeXT-Mail) )o o( weisst was Du kiwi@cs.tu-berlin.de (NO NeXT-Mail) \ | / tust, mach's FaxFon: +49 30 4543046 \~/ mit Eleganz!"

That's all she said, AND IT WORKS FINE. In fact, better than I expected. In the first place, I KNOW that my modem can only go at 14.4 KBd, so I was doubtful. But, it works and the reason, as stated by Jim Burns is "The modem will negotiate the rate to 14.4." Peter Kron said much the same thing: "Tip only controls the rate at which the port talks to the modem, not at which the modem talks on the phone line." OK, so it negotiates downwards. So, time to experiment. Transferring a text file that took 70 seconds at 9600 now, at "19200", took 35 seconds. Wow! Great! But WHY? How can it DO that? My second take on this was that it should only have been 50% faster. And, a clue from Michal Jaegermann, who saw and understood much the same: "My computer talks to my modem always at 38400. On recent zmodem transfers, via tip, of zipped(!) files I got something like 16.5 kBytes/sec of effective transfer rate. Of course compression at work, but I was surprised. Nominal line speed was 14.4k." Good!, compression on a text file might well be better than on a zipped file. (But, EXACTLY twice as fast?...hmmm. Maybe a coincidence?) Actually, the first message I looked at was from Steve Hayman, who said to fix my /etc/remote file to handle 14400 baud. Well, I had done that, although not quite completely (as discovered after reading Steve's note). Fixing it, nonetheless, it still complained about "bad baud rate". So I checked where else in the /etc directory baud rates were being set ('grep 9600 *' did the trick). And saw that I might also have to add 14400 info to the gettytab file. Doing that, tip STILL gave the same error message. Baffled... Michal also explained that: "Sure, such rate [14400] is not supported on NeXT." Dick Silbar WhistleSoft, Inc. (NeXTMail OK)

It provides compression up to 1:14. Has anyone thought of writing a software for using it on the NeXT? I think it is very useful, if you use 16-bit-44.1kHz-sounds. It makes about 5 MB for 3 minutes of music. Think of what 3 minutes are as a snd-File at this quality. OK, it's a lossy compression, but it gives better sounds than ulaw 14 times smaller! Would be great if the software could play it without decompress the whole thing (on-the-fly-decompression :-)). Another interesting point would be recording/playing to a tape drive. A 250-MB-tape would give more than 300 minutes of digital music - wow :-) Think what that means on a 2-GB-DAT drive! Plan a whole night of music without changing the tape :-) Bye...

For the plain telnet I simply make aliases in .cshrc, so no problem. Please let me know any of you know how to take care of this? What you need is at least one nameserver entry in your /etc/resolv.conf. Your university almost certainly has more than one of them, but you'll have to find out what their IP addresses are yourself.

This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted.

Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.)

Changing "MATH_LIBS = -m -lm" is actually quite a hack: The "-m" just tells the linker "ignore double defined symbols". Why we need this ? Because NeXT's strtod() is broken, one has to include the function from the compat-directory - but then we have 2 strtod()s: The new one and the neXT-version from the shared library (which is always included). A less hackish solution would be: Define CFLAGS= .... -Dstrtod=tcl_strtod and forget the MATH_LIBS hack. BTW: You definitly need to redefine CPP before you run configure. Configure will not work otherwise ! It would incorrectly define some types (I forgot which, pid_t or so) as int instead of short.

As with all things at NeXT these days it was not has decision!!! Conrad's role at NeXT over the last five years has changed greatly. In the beginning Conrad was the System Engineer for the northwest region. He was responsible for the five northwest states plus Alaska. He then moved onto help developing the campus consulting program. Which in the beginning was very important to NeXT because they were marketing only to University's and Colleges. After the program was up and running Conrad moved onto his current assignment, that of User Group coordinator. As coordinator, Conrad has been in charge of managing over 400 User Groups worldwide. Conrad has been an important resource to many in the community. One of his responsibilities is to make sure that all the user groups are kept up-to-date with the current goings on in the NeXT realm. He's also responsible for all the User Group activities at NeXTWORLD EXPO. Over the years Conrad has been one of NeXT foremost evangelist! It seems to me that Conrad's guiding principle for his work has been "I have never met a man/woman I did not like!" While telling one of my friends about this. He replied,"I thought has was a valuable resource for them?" I also thought that this was the case. Another individual described Conrad as, "The voice of NeXT on the internet!!!" I think this best describes how people fell about him. Conrad was one of the ONLY people in NeXT who posted regularly to the net. I know that this sounds like an obituary for him. And maybe it should because with his absences from the NeXT community it will fell that way. His loss will be greatly missed in the community!!! I wish him well in his next endeavor!!! - Michael -- --------------------------- Michael McMahon SHL Systemhouse Inc. mcmahon@ny.shl.com (NeXTmail) 212.303.5500

OPTIONS -<n> This option controls the compression amount for lossy compression. Specify <n> as an integer: 4 <= n <= 8. Higher numbers give greater compression. -l This option specifies lossless compression. A subse- quent decompression will reproduce the original sound exactly.

Pk., MD 20742 Distribution: world Message-ID: <2boa47$444@ringding.cs.umd.edu> There is a bug in Edit. I'm not sure what invokes it, but the scenario always goes like this: I keep an Edit Windows menu off to the side as I open and shut many files. At some point, I click on one of the entries in the Windows menu to pop that window to the front, at least that's what I try to do, but instead Edit closes all the windows and quits, losing everything that wasn't saved. Arrrrggghhh!! I'd say this has happened to me about four times now. I've tried to duplicate this bug, but can't. Is this a known bug? Is there a work around? Please email to me directly. I will summarize and post if there appears to be general interest. Thank you! Anne Wilson

I used Fontographer to * save them in the NeXT format, but my machine says they are * unusable. Any hints? There are several possible reasons: One possible reason is that the fonts are not installed properly. You need to place each font in the correct structure. If your font is called GripTite, then in either /LocalLibrary/Fonts or in ~/Library/Fonts [where ~ is your home directory], you need to: o make a directory called GripTite.font o make sure it has read permissions for everybody o place the font program in a file called GripTite inside the GripTite.font directory o place the AFM file in a file called GripTite.afm inside the GripTite.font directory o repeat this procedure, substituting appropriate names, for all your fonts o and finally, run buildafmdir and cacheAFMdata. If you've done all this, and you still have unuseable fonts, then you have other problems. Probably THE major cause of << Unusable Font >> from the font panel is incorrect AFM files. This shows up frequently with ``Public Domain'', ``Free'', or ``Shareware'' fonts (further re-inforcing the notion that ``Free'' software is worth all you pay for it). We [Trilithon Software] provide native NEXTSTEP applications which convert between Mac or PC fonts to NEXTSTEP format, and install the resulting converted fonts. Our Mac->Next and PC->NEXTSTEP font converters perform a significant amount of sanity checking on AFM files, including generating missing fields if needed, and generating the AFM files from the font in the last resort. Common problems that result in << Unusable Font >> include: o carriage returns at ends of lines (because of DOS CR-LF line terminators). o spaces at the ends of lines (I think this was fixed in 3.1) o missing fields such as FamilyName, FullName, and so on. o incorrect Weight fields. o mismatch between stated number of CharMetrics and actual number of CharMetrics.

Apparently, you can also do the same to tmpnam too. In tcl7.1 (/usr/tmp has been changed to /tmp) in tmpnam.c Since this is probably about the 5th time I've seen this come up in the last 2 weeks. I suggest that Thomas amend his tcl FAQ entry to include the strtod and tmpnam hacks. BTW: tk also has a strtod call too and apparantely it's better to use the compat version so you should apply the substitution in the tk distribtion and link with strtod.o from ../tcl-7.1 Note: depending on which window manager you are running tk's raise test may fail. I found it to fail with tvtwm whilst fvwm and twm work fine so I put this down to a tvtwm thing. Hey, but who uses tvtwm anymore :-)

Message-ID: <1993Nov10.084533.9655@ifi.unizh.ch> Sender: news@ifi.unizh.ch (USENET News Admin) Organization: University of Zurich, Department of Computer Science Date: Wed, 10 Nov 1993 08:45:33 GMT I working often with WordPerfect and I want to print my document with two pages on one sheet. With Nextstep 2.2 i have used the program PSNUP or QUARTO to reformat the postscript file. With the Nextstep 3.1 its not longer possible: Using psnup results in a new postscript-file, which looks right if i view it with Preview, but the output on the printer is not what i see in Preview (only one page per sheet comes out or with other versions of psnup only blank sheets come out). I think i know the reason, why psnup does not function any more: in 3.1 the a new PostScript version is used and the output in the .ps file is completely different from the 2.2 version: the pages in the file are in reversed order (and a flag is therefore set to -1 at the beginning of the file). I think this is a BUG (or a new version of psnup is needed). I know that i can change the output order of the pages in the PDF file, but that isnt a good solution. is there a workaround for this problem? is there somewhere an new version of the psnup program? and last but not least: is it FIXED in 3.2 ? peter

Date: 11 Nov 1993 13:52:27 GMT Organization: University of Bergen, Norway Distribution: world Message-ID: <2btg2r$sga@due.uninett.no> Hi. I'm buying a printer for my NeXT, and have come down to a choice between two printers - the HP DJ550C and Canons new BJC600. They cost the same at the offers I've received. Easy question - does the BJC600 work on NeXTSTEP? Here's why I wonder... I know that there are PD support programs (drivers) for the HP, but the quality of the Canon looks much better, both output, use of ink, and cost per page. I have verified with Canon that the engine is _better_ tha the BJC800 used in the NeXT Color printer. However, although Canon said that the 600's control language was compatible with the 800, they beleive that NeXT has designed their own controller for the NeXT Color printer. I have looked at the printing package and modified a PPD and pmdb file for use with a 600 on a serial port (slow, I know) through the standard NXColorBJ driver. I haven't a printer to try - but if the controller is Canons standard in the NeXT printer, it _should_ work with the 600 as well... So - I _really_ want to buy the Canon. Is there: 1) existing drivers in 3.1, 3.2, or available PD/Shareware to controll this model? 2) anyone out there who has used this printer with NeXTSTEP? 3) anyone out there who knows that a driver is under way? I would buy the printer today and use it in Epson (B/W) compatibility mode for 6 months if I knew a driver was being written... I'd write it myself if I had the faintest idea how to :-) I imagine with all the Intel users getting NeXTSTEP _someone_ must have a BJC600 they have hacked to work with NS, no? Please e-mail replies.

Apparently rpc.lockd works fine in the simple file open case: e.g. edlin and other simple DOS apps. Apparently lockd crashes if a "sophisticated" DOS program uses the explicit locking call.

Well, the BJC600 is a very nice color printer. But in my opinion, Canon compromised black print quality in order to get good results with color. The HP 550C, on the other hand, gives you very good color without compromising black only output. So I would say that if you need only a color printer, buy the BJC600, but if you want a color printer that will also give you good black print quality then take another look at the DJ550C. Another option would be the DJ1200C which is a great color printer with great black print quality and it supports Postscript.. i. -- PS. I tried to make a fair comparison, but of course I am very biased... I work for HP, AND I worked on the HP550C.

The following survey is being conducted by Kidder, Peabody & Co. Kidder, Peabody & Co. was founded in 1865. We are a global investment banking firm headquartered in New York City, and a wholly owned subsidiary of General Electric. Our Equity Research Department currently has 50 analysts following various industries. Kidder's Technology Group currently has five analysts covering Small Computer Systems, Enterprise Systems, Enterprise Software, Packaged PC Applications, Semiconductors, Internetworking, Storage Devices and Semiconductor Capital Equipment. Users' opinions regarding the products, companies, and industries we track are critical to assessing the future fortunes or misfortunes of technology companies and particular industry trends. Individual responses are kept strictly confidential. If you would like a copy of the results of this survey, include your address below. Although we take paper surveys regularly, last summer we tried an Internet version for the first time. Thanks to your overwhelming response, it was a resounding success. We wanted to give everyone a rest and follow-up with an even more extensive survey. Because of its length, we wanted to give away more attractive prizes. If we receive at least 300 responses, we will award three prizes. First prize will be an Apple MessagePad. Second prize is an HP Palmtop. Third prize is a copy of Microsoft Office 4.0. We will award prizes to survey respondents selected by random drawing. If any of this violates any rules of the network (and we couldn't find any rule that prohibited this survey), please forgive the intrusion. Otherwise take a stab at the survey that follows and have a shot at one of the prizes. To be eligible for the drawing, your completed questionnaire must be received by November 22nd.

I have a Nextcube 16/660 and am moving in with a friend who has a Centris 660AV. I would like to setup a network between the two machines and use my Next as a print and file server for his Mac. He does not have a printer. I also plan on getting a slip account and would like to let him go through my modem. What I know is this: I've already started figuring out the Next side of the networking. I have Mamakos' (sp?) slip package. As soon as Netcom get to NY I can get my domain name registered and get an IP address. I'll start figuring out NFS soon. What I don't know is the mac. No clue (and don't really care to know :) Anyway, Apple says that A/UX is not supported on the AV systems. Fine. They say that MacTCP is available from them. My question is: What works and what do people recommend? Does Intercon's NFS and print server software work. What about the usual TCP/IP stuff: telnet, ftp, gopher... Are there public domain versions of these utilities? I understand there are Mac newsreaders available. What kind of problems should I watch out for? Oh, and I would like to get at his CDROM drive. Do these NFS programs for the Mac allow me to setup his machine to serve the drive to our net? If this question interests others, let me know and I will post a summary of the responses.

Message-ID: <CGDFHJ.Ep6@cs.utwente.nl> Date: 12 Nov 93 08:56:07 GMT Sender: usenet@cs.utwente.nl Organization: Twente University, Dept. of Computer Science I've send a report to [supplier] that I can not get 3 logical mouse buttons to work under their X product. The documentation (and their reply) states that I must set the proper preferences, which, of course, I had already done. You can not set preferences for a third mouse button on a NeXT computer, but you can enable/ disable the right mouse button and accourding to the X package documentation by pressing both buttons simultaneously you should be able to simulate a third mouse button. Well, from my first message we know that this can never work because when I press both mouse buttons the cursor on the screen is locked. This is true also under NEXTSTEP. Now what?

Date: 12 Nov 1993 09:59:47 -0600 Organization: The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas Message-ID: <2c0btj$lfu@daisy.cc.utexas.edu> I've been trying to get SLIP to work from my Linux (0.99pl13) box at home to my NeXT (turboColor running 3.1) at work. The Linux box appears to be behaving very nicely. The NeXT box isn't. I've got Mamakos' TransSys DialUp-IP SLIP software installed on the NeXT. If anyone else has used this SLIP package (or another which works better which you can recommend to me), how in heavens did you get SLIP to work? I can get to a stage where I can ping the NeXT's SLIP interface. I can not do anything so exciting as telnet in or ping anything outside it. The NeXT's were installed largely out-of-the-box. They are on the Internet, and we have a class C address assigned to us. I would just like to use two of those addresses for the local and remote enpoints of the slip connection. Normally, I understand you want to use a separate subnet on the interface. I have tried this as well, splitting up those few 8 bits so that two of them are used for the slip local and remote endpoints and the rest for the ethernet. NOTHING WORKS. By the way, the NeXT does not run gated or routed or anything clever like this. Is that recommended? Shouldn't I be able to add an entry to the static routing table and get it over with? Thanks for any help.. Just a step-by-step of how you pulled it off would be *most* welcome. =-ddt->

They sent out a replacement board with eight meg of RAM on it so I could get a working system _before_ sending back anything. The board they sent out had a newer ROM than my old one (this ROM supported switching parity on and off). Curiously while the NBIC and 040 was socketed in the old board, the new one had them both soldered in. The only socket left was for the ROM. Out of all the copy-protected software I've bought (12), only three failed because of the board swap and the resulting hostid change. Paul Verket (NeXTmail ok)

ISPW was begun in August of 1988 with a team of engineers at the IRCAM research organization in Paris, France. The basic ISPW system includes a pair of 80 MFLOPS intel i860 RISC processors, 16 Mbytes of memory, a Motorola DSP56001 for additional real-time I/O, the CPOS/FTS real-time operating system and the GNU i860 C compiler. (...) IRCAM has also developed additional applications (...). CPOS/FTS is a real-time multiprocessing and multitasking operating system offering a set of UNIX-compatible commands, debugger and compiler support. FTS supports event handling and synchronous/asynchronous data flow. (...) *Max* is a graphical programming language suited to real-time applications such as musical synthesis and instrumentation. Max runs on the ISPW in a distributed fashion: the user interface runs on the NeXT Cube and the signal procesing tasks are distributed as CPOS tasks. (...) One can interconnect signal generators and filters, build custom controllers modules and simulation units, all from a core of signal processing objects.(...) Are these products still available from Ariel? Hmm... I doubt: you know, "the DSP was a mistake"... 8^) info sources: -[1] Science et Vie Micro, fevrier 92 (France) -the Computer Music Journal, vol 15, # 3 (Prob.

He then tells us how great NeXTSTEP is... Well, let me tell you how NeXTSTEP for Intel 3.1 really is. Well, it installs easily, and uses a lot of disk space for things like an on-line Webster dictionary, quotations and Shakespeare plays. Seems to me it would make more sense to leave the dictionary etc. on the CD. (BTW, It's easily done with a symbolic link but you have to delete the dictionary etc. after loading...) You need at least 300mb. A very good chunk of that is taken up with the above mentioned dictionary, quotations and plays. I'd rather use a real dictionary on my desk. Well, to each their own. The 3.1 release I was evaluating would not hold a serial connection long enough to do any uucp transfers. It would hard lockup the PC forcing a hard reboot which would crap disk files left right and centre. 3.1 for Intel is useless without the serial port driver update. It should never have left the factory with a bug that serious. (3.2 for Intel is available now, and is delivered with the serial driver update) The uucp system is worse than that available on linux or NetBSD/FreeBSD. They would be better off putting Taylor uucp on their system. They are using a lot of the GNU stuff already... It would mount a ISO9660 CD, but NFS clients could not use it when it was exported via NFS. Makes it kind of useless for a small office for resource sharing doesn't it? We queried NeXTSTEP about it, and was told that although other unix systems did it (After all there _is_ the VFS layer in most modern unix, except for NeXTSTEP) that the other systems were using a "work around." pfftthh Yeah right. A "work around." BTW, They are working on adding it.... They have no VFS layer. wow. It is display postscript. No X11 support at all. X11 support costs you extra. So you can't use code right off the net. You also can't use any of the X11 servers such as an NCD X term to add another low cost seat... I know, X11 *sucks* eggs and we all want dedicated workstations, but it is a consideration. To be fair, everything above can be worked around or is being addressed in a later release. Though paying extra for X11 support which comes bundled in with other versions of unix for the same price seems a bit stupid. The kicker was when NeXTSTEP wrote back to our complaints and told us not to compare it to a server. That they envisioned NeXTSTEP as a development machine for client-server (as the client) applications perhaps with a NT machine as the server. So, you are telling me you are using a BSD system (on top of the mach kernel) that pioneered networking and you can't do networking? right. Whats the point then of buying a NeXTSTEP so you can have an easily maintained homogeneous network when you can't use it as server as well? You might as well go all NT (yech) or SCO or something else that can do it right. The attitude from the company *sucked*. The desktop is wonderful. The development system is wonderful. Objective c is wonderful. It _is_ a great system for producing quality production code. No argument. But the rest of the system *sucks* Perhaps for certain niche applications it is the way to go. But I don't think it will be for very long. I am certain that there must be other companies doing it _right_, but on X11 or Windoze. If NeXTSTEP ported their environment to X11 (Probably heresy to them, and possibly it is too late) and sold the development environment for use on other platforms that can do unix right.... (I read something about an HP deal. perhaps this is what they are doing...)

In the older PostScript Printer the bottleneck was the PostScript engine. At that time, a 3 pages per minute was enough to support the flow from the PostScript engine. Right now, the PostScript engines are much faster and the bottleneck is the printer mecanism. It's interesting to see how the bottleneck changes around with time. The bottleneck right now is simply economics - it costs money to produce a faster engine. And then the processor needs to change along with that. So many printers now tend not to have glaring bottlenecks anymore - such mismatches are innefficient. But I would expect to see a continuing march of progress in terms of engine speed and printer speed. At certain speeds, your style of paper handling has to change. On a 135-ppm office printer, for example, you can no longer stop the paper by ramming into a piece of metal - you would end up cutting through the metal fairly fast.

I've got an HP LJ 4M (PostScript, 6MB, 600dpi) and can say, that it is true for TeX-Output. The fonts are downloaded to the printer and then the speed of the printer is limited by the mechanism. But if I try to print from WriteNow the printer pauses between the pages. Don't know, why WN needs more data, but it does. Same if I try to print several copies. I wonder why there's not transmitted, that every page has to be printed x times, but the pages are transmitted x times. OK, maybe problems of WriteNow (more data per page) and the printer driver (copies). But down- loading fonts, putting graphics on a page and so on are usual things to do, I think. And that needs time on a serial line. Another problem: Sure it seems pretty expensive to install another 300$ card in he printer to make it some seconds faster. But have you ever tried to get some additio- nal serial ports for the NeXT? This would usually cost the same for one port using the dsp... Or use your SCSI or a terminal server. Very expen- sive. So there are good reasons except speed to put the printer on the net, if possible.

Microsoft, in its seemingly infinite stupid egocentricity, decided to overwrite the boot sector on the drive and make the DOS partition active. I changed the active partition (using DOS FDISK) back to the "non-DOS" partition ("Hi, I'm DOS and you're not!"), rebooted, and got back to NeXTstep, but it doesn't prompt me to hit 'd' for DOS anymore. I need to get this back. I've already tried using /etc/disk and the "boot" subcommand to rewrite the boot block, but it made no difference. It told me it wrote 2 things: /usr/standalone/i386/boot and /usr/standalone/i386/boot1. I looked at the strings in /usr/standalone/i386/boot*, and it appears that boot0 contains the multi-OS boot code. But I'm afraid to try writing just boot0 to the boot sector -- has anyone else had this problem? I guess this should serve as a warning to anyone else contemplating the upgrade from DOS 6.0 to 6.2. I've been shafted by Microsoft before, when the DOS 6.0 installation decided (without consulting with me first) I wanted my secondary hard drive formatted for DOS in addition to the DOS partition on the primary drive.

Date: 14 Nov 1993 03:45:07 GMT Organization: The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas Message-ID: <2c49k3$5sk@geraldo.cc.utexas.edu> Hello. Someone posted here the other day a bried diagram for building a cable to work with the Opcode Midi Translator interface and an '040 NeXT. I built a cable using the diagram and it does indeed work for two way communications (I am using an old Apple single in, single out interface). The only problem is when I try to use it with either Presto or Ensemble I get dozens of "MIDI driver hardware framing error" messages in console. My devices are receiving data but with Ensemble I get no actual notes. With Presto I do get the notes but there are so many of the above errors that they are severely delayed. What's a hardware framing error? Did I wire my cable wrong? Is there any hope? Should I go ahead and buy a mac to do my MIDI work on? Ya'know, I'd like to think that I could use my NeXT for MIDI as well and easily as I can use a Mac (which I used to own) but it seems that MIDI composition is a small market in NeXT's small market. It's a shame I don't have years to waste or I would write my own sequencer. Do I sound a bit irate? Yes, I am. I have $15,000 worth of computer on my desk and I could do my work better on a $1500 Macintosh because it has the quality tools and mine doesn't.

I also run Windows NT on the same machine, which doesn't have alpha bit-planes, but does use 16 bit-planes for color. The difference between 12 and 16 bits for color is remarkable. JPEG images in 16 bits look fantastic, but under NS, you can clearly see the dithering, and things look washed out. Why doesn't NS use all 16 bits for color?

The toner cartridge wire 2. The transfer wires 3. The transfer guide 4. The discharge pins Now, my printer jams just about all the time. It seems to start to feed paper initially but never gets it under the metal roller inside the printer. The problem seems to be the rubber roller wheel that pulls the paper in from the cassette but I don't see anything wrong with it and I can't see how the cleaning I have don't could have cause this condition. The rare few times that the printer actually prints out anything it always pulls more than 1 sheet of paper through at a time. But the black streaks are gone now. Does anyone know how and what to check to make the paper feeding mechanism is OK ? Any comments and help are greatly appreciated. George

This version has a screen that shows the device name and device number of the SCSI ROM and allows you to change it from the default if you wish. There is an executible in the same directory called cdplayer. That is probably where the sh:cdplayer message comes from. My question is where is the script that is automatically trying to execute cdplayer when a audio disk is inserted. This is where I need to do the tweaking. Rich

There is a DockOriginX preference, why not a DockOriginX1 DockOriginX2 DockOriginX3? Perhaps with the option to hide one or all of them (but make sure we can get them back somehow)... It seemed to me that if one could get the current defaults to accept two different values, one could accomplish this, on a limited scale at least, right now. if Workspace DockOriginX 1053 could be Workspace DockOriginX 0 and 1053 then one could have a dock on the left side of the screen as well as the right.... of course, one would also have to set the DockPaths to make sure that the NeXT did not try to launch Workspace manager twice per login, or give you two recyclers.... there would be other things which would have to be taken care of, but it would seem that if someone could get the NeXT to understand two values then the same method could take care of all the different situations....

Luoma) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc,comp.sys.next.software Subject: Possible answer to why Opener.app drag and drop doesn't work Date: 15 Nov 1993 23:12:04 GMT Organization: Allegheny College Distribution: world Message-ID: <2c92c4$9d3@ftp.alleg.edu> Keywords: Workspace DockOnTop possible culprit? There has been a bit of talk going on in these two groups about not being able to drag and drop files into Opener.app's icon to get packing/unpacking done. It seemed like a few of us could get it to work but the majority could not. The other day, I was looking at Workspace's defaults and saw: Workspace DockOnTop 0 I didn't know what it meant until a few days later when I was talking with my sys admin who showed me the [alt-click on NeXT icon] command which toggles the dock from always being on top of any window or icon to being underneath it/covered by it. When I have it set to 0 [ not on top ] then I can drag and drop files into Opener.app. When I have it set to 1 [ on top ] then I cannot. Do those of you who cannot drag and drop have your Workspace DockOnTop set to O or 1? I thought this might be a possible solution. Perhaps someone can answer this as well... the Recycler can be used on the dock no matter if Workspace DockOnTop is set to 0 or 1.... If the recycler can do it, shouldn't there be a way to get Opener.app to do the same, or is there some basic difference I am not seeing? Thanks -- Timothy J.

From now on, always specify what OS you're interested in running Executor on, since we support NEXTSTEP (both platforms) and DOS. In the lab we have Executor starting to run on a DEC Alpha (if all goes according to plan, in about a week we'll put a demo of this out on the net). It is also good to specify whether or not you can receive NeXTmail. Executor's competitor (on the NEXT side) is "DayDream" from Quix in Switzerland. I think you can send them e-mail using "quix@applelink.apple.com". I understand their product is hitting some legal snags right now, but for some people it will be a better choice than Executor (at least the current version of Executor). --Cliff ctm@ardi.com

This seemed like a waste of time and resources at first, not to mention the hostid change possibly breaking some of our purchased software, but we do have a maintenance contract and it would've been free. They apparently had a change of heart either because they're just plain nice guys or because they had no replacement non-turbo 040 boards, and ultimately sent us just the NBIC.

I installed NS/FIP, then I accidentally munged my DOS partition and reinstalled DOS 6.0, and then the boot manager was gone. So, I played around for a bit with setting the active partition instead of hitting "n" or "d". I liked it better. The downside was that there was no way to set the active partition from within NS/FIP. My ideal 486 booting scenario would include the following 3 things: 1) A boot manager that just booted off the active partition without prompting and without delay, 2) A way to tell the system to boot off the "other" partition once in a while without changing the partiton table ("gonext.com" in DOS or "restart in DOS" on the Login panel is the perfect UI for this) AND, here's the big missing piece: 3) A way to modify the active partition under NS/FIP. The perfect UI for *this* would be a Preferences module. Replace the friggin' "power button" preferences panel (which is useless under NS/FIP) with something USEFUL that pertains to system startup, like editing which partition is active. Opinions?

Thanks in advance. Well, many people replied. Most folks' suggestions actually didn't solve my problem about how to transfer (large) binary files over a ZyXel modem to the standalone machine that I am now presently working on. However, Eric Ringger <ringger@cs.rochester.edu> did show me a way that, while not exactly elegant, works just fine. More on his solution in a bit... Several people suggested that I needed to use a 'rz -1' after going to local command mode with '~$' (not '~!'). [The list included sali@tammy.harvard.edu <Andrej>, robert@steffi.demon.co.uk, and scott hess <scott@nic.gac.edu>.] These remarks also said there should be a .tiprc file in the home directory which contains SHELL=/bin/sh rc=^+ <--- what does THIS do? and also mentioned calling 'sz -1 filename' to start it. The -1 option has to do with choosing file descriptor 1 for the ioctls and reads instead of 0. (Please don't ask me what that last sentence means -- I just read it in the man page.) That didn't work for me because the sz and rz I have on my machines don't support that option. These versions are circa 1989; I got them from the ORST archive (/pub/next/sources/comm/NeXT.rzsz0525.FAT.README and associated tar.Z file, I believe). Jason Fosback <jfosback@darkwing.uoregon.edu>, who put them there, thought the '-1' option was in fact present, but the executables simply bomb out with it present. So I went to look for a more recent version of zmodem, finding one on ftp.uu.net. I haven't been able to compile this version yet, however. (On an NS/Intel machine, in case that makes any difference.) [It seems unable to find an include file of some sort, but comparing the old and new codes, I can't see just where that happens.] So, I've been so far unsuccessful in getting a rz that can take a -1 option. Some others, notably Michal Jaegermann (yes, Christian, I HAVE spelled his name correctly!), suggested using tipx, which has zmodem built in. Or, Pedja Bogdanovich's TipTop -- ditto, and a shareware bargain. With both, so far, for reasons I haven't understood yet, things just haven't worked for me, despite Peter Kron's remark that, with TipTop, "zmodem is a no-brainer". Somehow I'm not getting the "magic header" sent back and forth over the phone line between the two machines. Yet others suggested using Kermit. Yes, I tried that too. (There is a compiled version of Kermit for NS/Intel machines on the ftp.cc.columbia.edu archive.) The problem here seems to be that I can transfer an ASCII file fine, using 'send foobar' and escaping back to give the 'receive' command. But, it is VERY SLOW. (Jim Redman tells me that is because of the MMP protocol the ZyXels use interfering with the block size used by kermit, but I'm not sure I understand that statement exactly.) However, trying to use Kermit for binary files, even when I 'set file type binary', the 'receive' command just gave me about 12 'N' characters and then quit, saying "Too many NAK's". Somehow it ain't supposed to work that way, but I haven't understood yet why not. Kermit in ASCII mode CAN actually solve the problem of sending large binary files. All one needs to do is uuencode them (which makes them even larger). Thus, for example, sending over the Mesa spreadsheet demo.tar file (4.5 MB or so) was done successfully this way last Saturday night. It only took from 8:00 PM to 1:30 AM, but it check-summed out fine. Thankfully, it was only a local call. Finally, back to Eric Ringger's suggestion, which I quote without permission: I'm not completely familiar with 'tip', but perhaps I can offer some help. I use 'kermit' quite frequently. Kermit allows you to escape back to your local Kermit prompt (similar to Telnet) and to access the shell below using the common '!' prefix. Once I have executed 'sz' on the remote host, I can escape back to Kermit and execute the following command: !rz </dev/cufa >/dev/cufa My version of 'rz' requires easy access to the serial port across which the data is coming (in this case /dev/cufa). Perhaps a similar sequence of steps will work for you. This works just fine, except that in my case I had assigned ttya instead of cufa. (It seems preferable to use the hardware flow control in the modem, so I will soon change the .kermrc to /dev/cufa.) After the fact, of course, I finally understand an additional remark made by Michal earlier: From what I hear, some variants of sz/rz will read/write stdin/stdout, and some won't (like mine, for example).

Date: 17 Nov 93 18:12:27 PST Message-ID: <1993Nov17.181227.7948@crash> Recently we discovered that our NeXT machines (a cube and a slab) have gotten VERY slow when it comes to inserting or ejecting any disks or CD-ROMs. On the cube, we have a PLI SuperFloppy drive and a NeXT CD-ROM drive, and of course, the optical drive. It now takes MUCH longer to load them and eject them, especially eject (the mouse cursor goes busy for like 1-2 mins). Same slowness on the NeXTstation. The only change is that an Intel NEXTSTEP machine is temporarily off the net for reconfiguration. But why would that cause such symptoms? Any suggestions appreciated! - bd brian dear / coconut computing, inc / brian@coconut.com

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to Michael Ross at antigone.com, the main NEXTSTEP groups are now available as a mailing list digest as well. next-nextstep-d next-advocacy-d next-announce-d next-bugs-d next-hardware-d next-marketplace-d next-misc-d next-programmer-d next-software-d next-sysadmin-d (For a full description, send mail saying LISTS to <digestif@antigone.com>).

NXFax does, however, work pretty well with the Zyxel modem !!! NXFax is much more elegant than the old Neuron driver, for example. Tech support at Telebit kindly worked hours and hours with me and spent 10 days checking my modem and chips (but only on msdos hardware) which proved to be OK. It looks like NXFax still is not functional for a Telebit device because the software keeps initializing the modem and erasing any changes that have been made to the S registers. Basically, all the information you sent me about trying to change the S51 register is permanently "stuck" at value (S)252 for this reason. In fact, the default value of the S51 register as sent out by Telebit _is_ (S)252 from what I could tell in working with the Telebit folks...and we really tried. I am submitting this letter also to the net *not* to flame B&W, you, or Craig, but hopefully to notify others that NXFax still doesn't work with the Telebit...perhaps some kind soul who knows otherwise might tell me what software I have to buy to make my Telebit function. The NXFax simply caused the Telebit WorldBlazer to not work as a Fax and it also concomitantly partially disabled the Telebit's ability to work as a data modem when NXFax had been installed. I think it would be fair to notify the net also that NXFax does not work with a modem other than the Zyxel when it comes to distinguishing between data and fax calls either, and that both serial ports could not be used on the same machine unless one has TWO zyxel devices ... Any information to the contrary or any further information would be gratefully appreciated. Does B&W have plans to change this situation? Thanks again for all your kind help!!!! -73- --- Marshall F.

You really need to get and read the "Networking & System Administration" manual. To put it simply, you can't disable NetInfo, since all of the utilities like ping, telnet, ftp, and so forth will try to access the netinfo database. Take a look at "man 8 lookupd". Something that will help you a lot is the "niload" program. Say you have a common /etc/hosts file for your site. To get it into NetInfo, do: niload hosts . < _your_site's_/etc/hosts_file_ You can do the same thing with the other standard flatfiles, which should be enough to get you started. Also, be sure to set up /etc/resolv.conf to point to an appropriate nameserver if your site has one. -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

The Telebits can be tricky to get working the first time, once things are configured correctly they work fine. This is due to some anomolies in the way they autobaud, which can make it difficult for programs to communicate with them at different speeds. NXFax always uses the highest possible speed, 38,400 bps. If someone has a UUCP configuration, for instance, at another speed it is sometimes difficult for NXFax to get the modem to recognize characters sent at 38400. I don't think it's correctly to say that they "don't work with NXFax," as we have quite a few customers using them happily. I'm not sure why Marshall says "The NXFax simply caused the Telebit WorldBlazer to not work as a Fax and it also concomitantly partially disabled the Telebit's ability to work as a data modem when NXFax had been installed." You can set up the Telebit, for instance, to receive faxes and send faxes and data. The only limitation is that you can not have it receiving both data and fax automatically, as the Telebit WorldBlazer does not support adaptive answering (data/fax detection). But even with this set up is is simply a click of a preferences button to change from fax to date reception. It is true that at the present time you can not have two modems controlled by NXFax and configured independantly. But you can have two different modems, or two non-ZyXEL modems. > I think it would be fair to notify the net also that NXFax > does not work with a modem other than the Zyxel when it > comes to distinguishing between data and fax calls > either,... NXFax 1.03 added support for both the Telebit WorldBlazer and the SupraFAX modems. The Telebit, as I mentioned above, can not do the data/fax detection. The Supra does have this feature. We have had a lot of customers who had problems with this feature on the Supra modems, but I belive that has improved greatly with their recent firmware upgrade. With our upcoming release of NXFax 1.04 we will be adding support for another half-dozen modems or more. Most of them contain support for data/fax detection. But it will take some time with them being used before we know how well they preform. We have decided to continue to sell only the ZyXEL modems at this time, as they have proven to be so reliable, and the company has been very responsive. I hope this clears things up, rather than confuses the issue. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Rick Damon rick@bandw.com Black & White Software NeXTMail OK 802-496-8500 (voice) 802-496-5112 (fax)

SoftPC seems to work, but the current version doesn't know about the serial ports (so Windows telecomm software won't work) and it looks like it'll take some extra work to get it to mount my DOS partition as a separate drive (you'd think they'd do this by default, wouldn't you?). And something as simple as backing up the installation floppy doesn't work; I copied the contents onto my hard disk, initialized a new floppy, and tried to copy the files back onto the floppy. No go; "not enough space." (And the User's Guide doesn't say a word about duplicating floppies.) Whatever I did to back up the 3.1 installation floppy worked fine; it's puzzling. But hey, I got it working without making a single change to the hardware, and for that I'm grateful. Mitch

NXFax, in my opinion, is the best and most stable faxdriver we have for Black (and probably White) NEXTSTEP hardware. From the Console, NXFAX sends a very stable set of messages, unlike some other past and present drivers we might use. And I also underplayed the importance of hardware limitations when I was talking about software "problems" in my post: I tried to say that the _Zyxel_ works flawlessly with NXFax and does distinguish Fax/Data. My comments, which were grousing about the Telebit, possibly obscured this fact. And with the Zyxel also running Microphone Pro, interactive comm as well as uucp are all cleanly integrated by NXFax.

I played with the SoftPC demo for a length of time to find out how it performs and learned how to handle this unwanted feature (there is nothing like a bug in publicly traded software ;-). In at least 85% of all cases the Windows VGA driver boots into a mode where the cursor is drawn into a black window and turns invisible (instead of reappearing instantaneously as a Windows hourglass cursor). The cursor is not lost yet, but it appears to be stuck in a very viscous sticky pond of black pixels where only heavy dragging (about 3 to 5 feet of high speed mouse movment) will make it reappear. In less than 10% of all trials the Windows cursor will appear correctly and about 5% will lead to a crash of the Windows OS with a subsequent register dump. In almost all cases a second trial (by either hitting command-r to reboot SoftPC or by typing 'win' on the DOS prompt) will make Windows boot correctly. Sometimes I needed a third trial. It is a very annoying feature anyway, but you can overcome this problem by just trying harder :-) It seems to be a problem of memory allocation by SoftPC or some problem of that sort. No deeper insight from my side. Ah yes: my conf is NS 3.1 on a NeXTstation mono, 20 MB memory and plenty of swap space. -- Peter Nitezki | Nitezki@NiDat.sub.org # Blessed art thou who knoweth Staarenbergstr. 44 | Tel.: +49 7251 62495 # not about the pleasure and D-76703 Kraichtal | Fax : +49 7251 69215 # delight of being hooked GERMANY | NeXTmail welcome !!! # up to the Net.

You should create a password for your default account (user "me"). You can do this from the Preferences app or by entering "passwd" in a Terminal window. From "man loginwindow": If there is an account for the user 'me', and that account has no password, then the loginwindow program does not actu- ally go through the login procedure; rather, it immediately executes the Workspace for that user. This can be disabled by holding down the left mouse button while loginwindow is starting. Once you do this, then you can logout and then login as root (and you definitely should set a root password as well, once you're in.) -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

We at JANA Publishing have a some NeXT related CD-ROM's for sale. These CD-ROM contain mostly 040 related software, but there are some X86 related software too. We have 2 CD's. 1) Expo Edition : This CD was done for the NeXTWorld Expo and contain about 500 Megs of software. Almost all the Public domain, Shareware, Commercial (Demo) software available for NeXT. About 80 - 90% of them are for 040. 2) New Edition : This CD contains all the new software that was available since the Expo, There are about 80 Megs of them. Most of them are in FAT Binary format. The total cost of both the CD's are only $19.95 ( Less then $10 a CD ) for 2 CD's plus S/H. If you live in USA the S/H is $2.95, If you live in Canada the S/H is C$2.95 and if you live outside of USA or Canada then the S/H is 4.95. If you would like to order these CD's then please E-Mail us your shipping address to ( next@jana.com ) and we will put the disk on mail for you. Once the disk arrives, you can pay for the disk if you like the CD's or if you don't like it send the CD's back. :-). If you would like to buy more then 10 sets (20 CD's ) of CD's then E-Mail jay@jana.com for resell pricing. We still have about 50 sets of disk in stock, so if you like to order one for you then do it fast, send your orders to next@jana.com (no NeXT Mails please ). If your mail bounce, then it means we are sold out. This is a must have collection for every NeXT owner so get them while you can. I will not be making this type of CD's any more during this year, at the same time I don't think there is any one else who is selling CD's for this low price, Also the way NeXT market is going I dont think any one else is going to do a set of CD's like this any more. The CD's have long file extension with rockridge support. If you own a NeXT then this is a must for you. Jay Note : If you already subscribe to CD-ROM NeWS then don't order these disks, you will get them as part of your subscription. Oh by the way I have mailed the latest CD about 10 days ago (This is the CD that contain 80 MB of NeXT software. ).

Depending on what's on the CD, you could try using Digital Librarian to index the material. Presumably, you have to set up a directory (or set of directories, one for each CD you wish to index) on your hard drive, and then create soft links from there into the CD-ROM drive's mount point. You should read up on Indexing under the General Reference section and take a look at "man ixbuild" and friends. If you think it's work your time, and you have a specification for the format of the CD database(s), you could try to write a short application which reads the on-disk database(s) directly, but this is likely to be a lot of work. -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

The locking of the mouse cursor by pressing two mouse buttons simultaneously (NSFIP) turns out to be a mouse driver/IO card problem. Therefore, if you are using a Logitech serial mouse then running X under NEXTSTEP might give you problems with your third mouse button. Solution: buy another mouse (i.e. PS/2 mouse).

That machine has a DOS/Windows 3.1 partition also. I read lot of message about the serial driver of NS/FIP. Most of them say: No problem at 9600 bps and below but big problems at 19200 and 38400. I have switched my Epson-NX in Windows 3.1 mode and I have discovered an utility that change the speed of the serial ports. That utility has a speed limit of 9600 bps. Question: Is 9600 bps an absolute hardware speed limit? Notwithstanding the OS used, the technique used, the serial port of any Intel machine will never go faster than 9600 bps? I would appreciate some comment like: "In my company we use (Windows|Windows-NT|SCO-UNIX|...) at (19200|38400|57600) bps and we don't have any problem". If nobody has ever seen the current hardware running faster than 9600bps, maybe we should turn the page and seeking an alternative. On black hardware, the higher speeds are hardly supported. But it works better than what it is written in the manual. We use 38400 everyday without any problem. Yanik -- Yanik Crepeau Programmer Planon Telexpertise E-Mail: yanik@planon.qc.ca (NeXT)

Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1993 05:25:52 GMT I seem to be having problems with my NeXTstation (NS 3.1). I rebooted the other day and the system came up in single-user mode. The drive is mounted read-only, also. If I do a 'mount -o remount /' the drive remounts read-write. I then do a ^D and the system boots up normally and everything is OK. Next time I reboot or power down, same thing happens again. As far as I can tell there is nothing wrong with the file system. Of course, I am sure I don't know all the places to look. Anybody have a clue as to why this is happening or where I might look to find out what might be causing the boot into single-user mode? I don't have any idea why it would come up in single-user mode in the first place. I didn't change anything (that I know of).

Unfortunately, there is no such utility; it is not possible to reliably undelete something under unix due to the nature of the filesystem and the fact that the machine is regularly flushing buffers to disk (via update). If you had immediately shut down your machine after performing the deletion, then it is theoretically possible that an unix expert could possibly have undeleted the files if he were lucky, but in practice, there is no way to undelete. I have actually seen undeletion sucessfully done *once*, by someone who is a lot smarter than I am. They managed to fiddle with the machine in single-user mode so that fsck treated the deleted file as something to be put in /lost+found. (If I remember correctly; it was 4 years or so ago....)

The integration of the NeXTSTEP object application environment with Solaris yields unparalleled power for enterprise computing. SunSoft also unveiled a series of agreements with NeXT to further promote open specifications and the standardization of object technology. Solaris is the highest volume UNIX enterprise solution in the industry today with an installed base of more than 1.4 million. With the inclusion of NeXT's application environment into Solaris, SunSoft intends to be the industry's first to deliver a fully object-based, enterprise level software solution. Solaris, with this new integrated object application layer, will give SunSoft's rightsizing customers a best-of-breed solution to build mission critical applications faster and that are more reliable - while at the same time, remain compatible with existing Solaris applications. "We are excited to see the standardization of an open object specification," said Craig Heimark, chief information officer of Swiss Bank Corporation. "Swiss Bank has made a major investment in objects, UNIX and open systems, and we believe the teaming of SunSoft, and the volume of Solaris, with NeXT, and their leading object technology, will result in the most widely accepted and technically superior object standard in the industry." The NEXTSTEP application environment will be integrated with Solaris' Distributed Object Environment as part of the company's Project DOE effort. Customers will gain the advantage of the industry's best object application development environment hosted on the leading implementation of the OMG (Object Management Group) CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) and COSS (Common Object Services Specification) standards. Further, the DOE architecture exploits the major advances in Solaris, including multithreading, multiprocessing, security and sophisticated network administration capabilities. Client/server computing using open technologies, such as the UNIX operating system, has increasingly grown in acceptance over the past several years. This accelerating growth is strongly due to the rapid decline in hardware prices and increase in power, functionality and user friendliness. Many systems utilizing UNIX, long chastised for its difficult user interface, are now as easy to operate as a PC or Macintosh. However, all these advancements have made it increasingly difficult for application developers, who are struggling with the huge task of leveraging this new functionality in the software they must write. Object-oriented software development can greatly simplify the developers' task. Objects are interchangeable and reuseable software components that can be easily combined to create applications. Through Project DOE, SunSoft extends the object- oriented approach to a distributed computing environment, enabling applications to transparently leverage computer resources anywhere on the network. "Today's announcement will accelerate SunSoft's time to market with Project DOE to deliver a best-of-breed distributed software solution for enterprise level computing," said Ed Zander, president of SunSoft. "This agreement will allow SunSoft, the highest volume UNIX supplier, to respond to customer demands for faster and simpler ways to develop applications by providing the best technology and standardization through open specifications." OpenStep Accelerated Object Adoption To help accelerate the adoption of this emerging object technology and stimulate the market of independently developed components, SunSoft and NeXT announced that they will work together on the establishment of "OpenStep" as an industry standard for object development. OpenStep is an open application programming interface (API) derived from the operating system-independent subset of NEXTSTEP 3.2. The support of these two companies behind a single standard will result in a high volume market for objects written to the specification. NeXT will freely license the OpenStep specification and the OpenStep trademark to any implementation that passes a verification test suite. SunSoft and NeXT will work with the appropriate standards organizations to deliver a comprehensive set of application development standards based on the OpenStep specification that the entire industry can freely use. NeXT to License NFS, CORBA and IDL from SunSoft SunSoft also announced that as part of the strategic relationship, NeXT has licensed key distributed computing technology components for its NEXTSTEP environment. The agreement provides the right for NeXT to use SunSoft's Network File System (NFS), which has a current installed base of more than 4 million nodes, and the new SunSoft high performance OMG-compliant Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) technology and its Interface Definition Language (IDL) compiler, which is the most advanced technology for distributed object computing today. SunSoft to OEM NEXT Application Builder In addition to the application environment, SunSoft announced that it has acquired OEM rights to NeXT's Developer Environment. The technology provides developers with a complete visual object application construction toolbox allowing developers to create applications by selecting from a palette of existing objects and only create the new objects needed to complete the application logic, dramatically improving software developers' productivity and application quality. SUNSOFT AND NEXT PARTNER TO DRIVE VOLUME OBJECT STANDARD NeXT to Publish Open Specification; SunSoft Licenses Implementation for Use in Solaris SAN FRANCISCO, November 23, 1993 - To accelerate the standardization of object technology, SunSoft, the system software subsidiary of Sun Microsystems, Inc., and NeXT Computer, Inc. today announced a series of agreements where NeXT will publish an open specification, called OpenStep, and SunSoft will license NEXTSTEP's application environment for use in its Solaris enterprise system software. NeXT will "open up" NEXTSTEP by freely licensing the APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) and the OpenStep trademark to all independent implementations which pass an OpenStep test suite. OpenStep is based on the operating system-independent layers of NEXTSTEP 3.2, which NeXT is shipping today. "I believe that object technology is one of the core technologies that will drive enterprise computing in the `90s," said Scott McNealy, chairman and CEO of Sun Microsystems, Inc. "We are pleased that we can now integrate NeXT's proven object technology with SunSoft's distributed computing environment. Sun is now in a great position to drive a volume object standard for the future." "Solaris is the highest volume UNIX-based operating system," said Steven P. Jobs, Chairman and CEO of NeXT Computer, Inc. "SunSoft's choosing the NEXTSTEP parallels Apple's choosing of PostScript 10 years ago. We feel that this relationship will drive NEXTSTEP to become the object-oriented standard for open systems computing." The SunSoft/NeXT Agreement: o NeXT will publish an interface specification, called OpenStep, which is based on the operating system independent layers of NEXTSTEP Release 3.2 APIs. This allows applications which only use these APIs to be portable across multiple OpenStep implementations regardless of the underlying operating system. The OpenStep specification will be published by June 30, 1994 and submitted to an appropriate standards organization, such as the OMG (Object Management Group) and X/Open, for adoption. o SunSoft has licensed the NEXTSTEP application environment and will use this technology to develop an implementation of the OpenStep specification for use in its Solaris Distributed Object Environment (DOE). o Sun Microsystems, Inc. will make a minority equity investment in NeXT Computer, Inc. o NeXT will port the native NEXTSTEP operating system to the SPARC architecture with marketing and technical assistance from Sun's SPARC Technology Business (a business unit of Sun Microsystems, Inc.). o SunSoft has licensed to NeXT its implementations of networking and distributed object technologies, including CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture), The Object Management Group's IDL (Interface Definition Language) and NFS (Network File System). Object programming is widely recognized as the next wave of how software applications will be developed by greatly speeding the time it takes to construct applications, increase their reliability and allow the reuse and leverage of software components. According to Chris Stone, President of the Object Management Group (OMG), "Now that NeXT is opening up the NEXTSTEP API and Sun is teaming up with them to promote it, the OpenStep specification has a great chance to become the ubiquitous object interface for application developers." "SunSoft firmly believes it will have a distinct time-to-market advantage for a complete object-based, enterprise caliber operating environment as application developers and end users make the inevitable move to object technology," said Edward J. Zander, SunSoft president. "We evaluated all of the object-oriented alternatives and we chose NeXT because they offer the best technology for building object-oriented applications and it is proven technology which has been shipping for years. This agreement brings together world class technology from both vendors to allow SunSoft to offer a best-of-breed distributed software environment for enterprise-level computing." NeXT Computer, Inc. NeXT develops and markets the award-winning NEXTSTEP object-oriented software for industry-standard computer architectures. Customer use NEXTSTEP to develop and deploy custom client/server applications, using both custom and shrink-wrapped software. Headquartered in Redwood City, California, with offices throughout the world, NeXT serves customers requiring enterprise-wide, object-oriented productivity environments.

Notwithstanding the OS used, the > technique used, the serial port of any Intel machine will never go faster than 9600 bps? With DOS communications software, you can run PC serial ports at 38,400 and 57,600 bps. The hardware will actually do 115,200 bps, but the speed accuracy may not be good enough to meet RS232 timing specs at that value. With a 14.4 kbps modem using V.42 compression (which can be as high as 4:1), you need 57k speed, just to ensure that the computer -> modem connection can stay ahead of the modems! For those who aren't familiar with high speed modems, most of them allow the computer -> modem connection to be faster than the speed of the modem->modem connection. Older PC serial hardware may be equipped with the 8250 or 16450 unbuffered UART chips. These can't keep up at 9,600 or 14,400. Any PC using a high speed modem should be equipped with a 16550 (or equivalent) buffered UART. These parts shoud be standard equipment on any high-end 486 machine purchased for NeXTSTEP, but it's something you should make certain of when buying hardware for NS. -------------------------------------------- Gary Finley, Univ of Alberta Psychology Dept. gfin@psych.ualberta.ca (NeXTmail welcome!)

I rebooted > the other day and the system came up in single-user mode. The drive is > mounted read-only, also. > [..munch..] Perhaps you (or someone) has mis-set the boot command? Enter the ROM monitor (via Cmd-Cmd-~ to get the NMI mini-monitor then 'mon' to enter the ROM monitor). Type p to change the configuration, and check the boot command. If it was something like "sd -s" than this was the problem. You should set it to something like "sd- nbuf=xx", where xx is some number that depends on the amount of physical memory in your machine. If you are running NS 3.0, setting xx to 32 or more will really help system performance. I have it at 64 with 20 MB of RAM; people with less RAM might want to try 32 or so, people with more RAM might try more. (To get back from the monitor, type "c" and then move some windows around to redraw the screen... :-) Also, you might want to check /etc/fstab to make sure it contains a line like: /dev/sd0a / 4.3 rw,noquota,noauto 0 1 Good luck, -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

There have been a few other posts that suggest that NewsGrazer's parsing of the newsrc file is not very robust---little strangenesses in .newsrc can make it crash. -- Hal.Varian@umich.edu Hal Varian voice: 313-764-2364 Dept of Economics fax: 313-764-2364 Univ of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1220

The | integration of the NeXTSTEP object application environment | with Solaris yields unparalleled power for enterprise computing. | SunSoft also unveiled a series of agreements with NeXT to further | promote open specifications and the standardization of object | technology. | This is the greatest thing that could happen (and I am not given to frequent hyperbole). | Solaris is the highest volume UNIX enterprise solution in the | industry today with an installed base of more than 1.4 million. | With the inclusion of NeXT's application environment into Solaris, | SunSoft intends to be the industry's first to deliver a fully | object-based, enterprise level software solution. Well, not the first, but the first from Sun. | Solaris, with | this new integrated object application layer, will give SunSoft's | rightsizing customers a best-of-breed solution to build mission | critical applications Where have I heard that phrase before? :-) | faster and that are more reliable - while | at the same time, remain compatible with existing Solaris applications. | "We are excited to see the standardization of an open object | specification," said Craig Heimark, chief information officer | of Swiss Bank Corporation. "Swiss Bank has made a major investment | in objects, UNIX and open systems, and we believe the teaming of | SunSoft, and the volume of Solaris, with NeXT, and their leading | object technology, will result in the most widely accepted and | technically superior object standard in the industry." | Without a doubt. | The NEXTSTEP application environment will be integrated with | Solaris' Distributed Object Environment as part of the company's | Project DOE effort. Customers will gain the advantage of the | industry's best object application development environment This is an incredible and very belated admission from Sun. | hosted on the leading implementation of the OMG (Object | Management Group) CORBA (Common Object Request Broker | Architecture) and COSS (Common Object Services Specification) | standards. Further, the DOE architecture exploits the major | advances in Solaris, including multithreading, multiprocessing, | security and sophisticated network administration capabilities. | | Client/server computing using open technologies, such as the | UNIX operating system, has increasingly grown in acceptance | over the past several years. This accelerating growth is | strongly due to the rapid decline in hardware prices and | increase in power, functionality and user friendliness. | Many systems utilizing UNIX, long chastised for its difficult | user interface, are now as easy to operate as a PC or Macintosh. They mean "utilizing NeXTSTEP." :-) | However, all these advancements have made it increasingly | difficult for application developers, who are struggling | with the huge task of leveraging this new functionality | in the software they must write. Object-oriented software | development can greatly simplify the developers' task. | | Objects are interchangeable and reuseable software components | that can be easily combined to create applications. Through | Project DOE, SunSoft extends the object- oriented approach | to a distributed computing environment, enabling applications | to transparently leverage computer resources anywhere on the network. | | "Today's announcement will accelerate SunSoft's time to market | with Project DOE to deliver a best-of-breed distributed software | solution for enterprise level computing," said Ed Zander, | president of SunSoft. "This agreement will allow SunSoft, | the highest volume UNIX supplier, to respond to customer | demands for faster and simpler ways to develop applications | by providing the best technology and standardization through | open specifications." | | OpenStep Accelerated Object Adoption | To help accelerate the adoption of this emerging object technology | and stimulate the market of independently developed components, | SunSoft and NeXT announced that they will work together on the | establishment of "OpenStep" as an industry standard for object | development. OpenStep is an open application programming interface | (API) derived from the operating system-independent subset of NEXTSTEP 3.2. | OpenLook and OpenWindows are dying if not dead; now the Open line lives on :-). | The support of these two companies behind a single standard will | result in a high volume market for objects written to the specification. | NeXT will freely license the OpenStep specification and the OpenStep | trademark to any implementation that passes a verification test suite. | SunSoft and NeXT will work with the appropriate standards organizations | to deliver a comprehensive set of application development standards | based on the OpenStep specification that the entire industry can | freely use. | Eat your hearts out, Microsoft. | NeXT to License NFS, CORBA and IDL from SunSoft | SunSoft also announced that as part of the strategic relationship, | NeXT has licensed key distributed computing technology components | for its NEXTSTEP environment. The agreement provides the right for | NeXT to use SunSoft's Network File System (NFS), This is news? Just exactly what network file system have been using all along? | which has a current | installed base of more than 4 million nodes, and the new SunSoft high | performance OMG-compliant Common Object Request Broker Architecture | (CORBA) technology and its Interface Definition Language (IDL) compiler, | which is the most advanced technology for distributed object computing today. | Isn't the jury still out on that one? | SunSoft to OEM NEXT Application Builder | In addition to the application environment, SunSoft announced that it | has acquired OEM rights to NeXT's Developer Environment. The technology | provides developers with a complete visual object application construction | toolbox allowing developers to create applications by selecting from a | palette of existing objects and only create the new objects needed to | complete the application logic, dramatically improving software developers' | productivity and application quality. | So DevGuide bites the dust too. | SUNSOFT AND NEXT PARTNER TO DRIVE VOLUME OBJECT STANDARD | NeXT to Publish Open Specification; | SunSoft Licenses Implementation for Use in Solaris | | SAN FRANCISCO, November 23, 1993 - To accelerate the | standardization of object technology, SunSoft, the system | software subsidiary of Sun Microsystems, Inc., and NeXT | Computer, Inc. today announced a series of agreements | where NeXT will publish an open specification, called | OpenStep, and SunSoft will license NEXTSTEP's application | environment for use in its Solaris enterprise system software. | | NeXT will "open up" NEXTSTEP by freely licensing the APIs | (Application Programming Interfaces) and the OpenStep | trademark to all independent implementations which pass | an OpenStep test suite. OpenStep is based on the operating | system-independent layers of NEXTSTEP 3.2, which NeXT is | shipping today. | | "I believe that object technology is one of the core | technologies that will drive enterprise computing in the | `90s," said Scott McNealy, chairman and CEO of Sun | Microsystems, Inc. "We are pleased that we can now | integrate NeXT's proven object technology with SunSoft's | distributed computing environment. Sun is now in a great | position to drive a volume object standard for the future." | | "Solaris is the highest volume UNIX-based operating system," | said Steven P. Jobs, Chairman and CEO of NeXT Computer, Inc. | "SunSoft's choosing the NEXTSTEP parallels Apple's choosing of | PostScript 10 years ago. We feel that this relationship will | drive NEXTSTEP to become the object-oriented standard for open | systems computing." This is the most incredible marriage of convenience you can imagine. When my first NeXTs arrived here at Texas A&M University (running NeXTSTEP 0.8!) I told NeXT they needed to port to Sun workstations. (In fact, early development of NeXTSTEP was on Sun 3's, despite their 1-bit monochrome monitors.) The answer was that Steve considered NeXTSTEP the "crown jewels" and was not about to port to any other hardware. Then came the IBM deal which ported NeXTSTEP 1.0 to the IBM RS/6000. Again I told NeXT they needed to port to Sun workstations, and even offered to do the job, since we had lots of students, graduate and undergraduate, who had learned programming the over 100 NeXts and over 500 Suns on campus. Again the answer was no. At NeXTWORLD Expo in January of 1992 I finally had the opportunity to talk to Steve Jobs in person about porting to Suns. The main reason he gave against the idea was the fear that if NeXTSTEP were ported to Suns, Sun would change their microcode to break it. The fear and loathing was mutual. Sun salespersons, losing some juicy orders to NeXT and having no good comeback to NeXT's video of the Sun programmer/NeXT programmer shootout, started quoting Sun officials as saying that NeXT couldn't meet its payroll and Steve had to dip into his own wallet, and other bits of innuendo about the viability of NeXT (following the long established example of IBM's salespersons' mastery of the FUD factor). (FUD = Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt; e.g., "IBM will certainly be here with you, the customer, 10 years from now; are you REALLY sure that our competitor for this bid, company X, will be? You wouldn't want to be responsible for choosing the wrong vendor, now would you?") Steve Jobs issued a personal letter rebutting Sun's barbs and ending with the challenge that he would debate Scott McNealy anywhere, anytime. So far I as I know this flung-down gauntlet was never picked up by McNealy. The next chapter was Sun's releasing Solaris 2, which was greeted with disgust by substantial numbers of programmers. Now that I think of it, I know only one person using Solaris 2 whose employer isn't requiring him to. (Isn't it also the only OS available on some of the new Suns?) After stonewalling for months, Sun finally announced a DOWNGRADE to Solaris 1.1c, which I understand is essentially SunOS 4.1.3. Now Sun has seen the light, and NeXT will see the sun at the end of the tunnel of the shadow of its continued existence. The forthcoming lovefest will be a lot like that of candidates of a political party who have badmouthed each other all through the primary and then suddenly switch to talking about how great the other guy is now that the opposition is the other party's candidate. It will be gushy and embarrassing and we will all love it. | The SunSoft/NeXT Agreement: | o NeXT will publish an interface specification, called OpenStep, | which is based on the operating system independent layers of NEXTSTEP | Release 3.2 APIs. This allows applications which only use these APIs | to be portable across multiple OpenStep implementations regardless of | the underlying operating system. The OpenStep specification will be | published by June 30, 1994 and submitted to an appropriate standards | organization, such as the OMG (Object Management Group) and X/Open, | for adoption. | | o SunSoft has licensed the NEXTSTEP application environment and | will use this technology to develop an implementation of the | OpenStep specification for use in its Solaris Distributed Object | Environment (DOE). | | o Sun Microsystems, Inc. will make a minority equity investment | in NeXT Computer, Inc. | Hmm. Are they buying Canon's share? Ross Perot's? Issuing preferred stock? Can a public stock issue be finally in sight? | o NeXT will port the native NEXTSTEP operating system to the SPARC | architecture with marketing and technical assistance from Sun's SPARC | Technology Business (a business unit of Sun Microsystems, Inc.). | This is absolutely the greatest thing since sliced bread. NeXTSTEP bails out Solaris and Sun bails out NeXT. Win-win in spades. | o SunSoft has licensed to NeXT its implementations of networking and | distributed object technologies, including CORBA (Common Object Request | Broker Architecture), The Object Management Group's IDL (Interface | Definition Language) and NFS (Network File System). | | Object programming is widely recognized as the next wave of how | software applications will be developed by greatly speeding the | time it takes to construct applications, increase their reliability | and allow the reuse and leverage of software components. | | According to Chris Stone, President of the Object Management | Group (OMG), "Now that NeXT is opening up the NEXTSTEP API and | Sun is teaming up with them to promote it, the OpenStep specification | has a great chance to become the ubiquitous object interface for | application developers." | i You got that right. | "SunSoft firmly believes it will have a distinct time-to-market | advantage for a complete object-based, enterprise caliber operating | environment as application developers and end users make the | inevitable move to object technology," said Edward J. Zander, | SunSoft president. "We evaluated all of the object-oriented | alternatives and we chose NeXT because they offer the best | technology for building object-oriented applications and it | is proven technology which has been shipping for years. i An incredible admission from Sun, however belated. | This | agreement brings together world class technology from both | vendors to allow SunSoft to offer a best-of-breed distributed | software environment for enterprise-level computing." | | NeXT Computer, Inc. | NeXT develops and markets the award-winning NEXTSTEP object-oriented | software for industry-standard computer architectures. Customer use | NEXTSTEP to develop and deploy custom client/server applications, | using both custom and shrink-wrapped software. Headquartered in | Redwood City, California, with offices throughout the world, NeXT | serves customers requiring enterprise-wide, object-oriented | productivity environments.

I can compile a big app and do serial i/o at 38400bps (machine to modem connection, with a 14400 modem to modem connection) without a problem. But if there is some sort of a disruption of the line (the other end drops carrier, etc.) it will crash 1 out of 5 times. My guess is that there is some sort of sudden burst of activity and the buffer gets overrun. I can send a single 30 page Fax at 9600 no problem, but I can't send 20 one page Faxes at 7200. Within three call "misses" (ie: the other end was not a Fax, bad line, dropped carrier, etc) it will panic the system. When carrier is dropped we get a "raw buffer overrun" then a kernel panic.

From one of the other news groups, someone was suggesting that NeXT managed to loose a few of the registration cards, and so it may be worth phoning them to check that they have your name on the list of people to send 3.2 to. I haven't recieved mine yet, but they told me they weren't starting to ship till last friday, so it will proberbally be a couple of weeks before I get mine...just incase someone hasn't got theirs and is worried. hope this helps john.

What about the much-ballyhood COSE and its common UI (can't think of the acronym, there are sooo many :-? Will Sun support 2 completely different GUI's? This doesn't sound very intelligent considering that the UNIX big boys are trying to present a united front. Did NeXT plant a mole at Sun (Bud Tribble)? Has his whole purpose been to move Sun in NeXTSTEP's direction? His name has been absent from the press releases. I thought he was supposed to be directing Sun's move toward an object-oriented environment. I'm having a little trouble getting a clear picture of what all this means to both NeXT and Sun. In the short run, NeXT seems like a winner with greater credibility and possibly a little extra cash from Sun's minority investment position. But if users will be able to buy Solaris for Intel with an included OpenStep development environment, why would anyone buy NeXTSTEP for Intel? I mean, System V seems to have won the UNIX OS "wars" with OSF/1 and NeXTSTEP as distant Mach entrants, so why would anyone buy a Mach-based OS when the development speed advantage is gone? I probably wouldn't and I have never liked System V although my last experience was with Release 3, a real archaic version compared with 4.3BSD (and probably Release 4). Is NeXT too small to compete in the OS wars just as it was too small to compete in the hardware wars? Will NeXTSTEP become SystemV-based? Anybody seen or heard from Dr. Mach, Avie Tevanian, lately? He seems to be keeping a pretty low profile (hope he hasn't disappeared in the night like so many of NeXT's employees). And what's Sun going to do with its new romance with Motif? Are we going to see OpenStep/X? I can't believe that Sun would abandone X although they really had it rammed down their throats and would have preferred to develop NeWS, the PostScript-based window system pioneered by Sun. So Sun may still have a preference to a PostScript-based window system like DPS, but its investment in X is huge. And what about the industry standard, C++? Will we see OpenStep/C++, an implementation in C++ rather than Objective-C? All this seems rather amazing, but maybe its just going to be a minor part of Sun's strategy, maybe driven by some of Sun's large customers in the financial services industry who are familiar with NeXTSTEP. So these few customers will get OpenStep/Solaris and everyone else will continue slogging along with Motif/Solaris. I'd like some savvy industry-watcher to get out her crystal ball and tell us what we can expect of NeXT, NeXTSTEP, Solaris, OpenStep, etc. a year down the road. -- Art Isbell Cubic Solutions NeXT Registered Developer NEXTSTEP software development and consulting NeXTmail: art@cubicsol.com Voice: +1 408 335 1154 USmail: 95018-9442 Fax: +1 408 335 2515

All these wonderful letters stand for (License ManaGeR Daemon). This means that when you buy a C compiler for a Sun, the lmgrd makes sure that you don't run more copies then you have paid for. IBM doesn't even do this. NeXT should have ported to the Sparc by itself. Sun can't change the microcode, Sun has licenced the Sparc technology to too many people.

Keywords: NeXTstep SUN Alliance Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1993 23:06:58 GMT Distribution: usa Technology & Health: Next Will License Its `Object' Software To Sun, Open Up Its Operating System ---- By G. Christian Hill Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal SUN MICROSYSTEMS Inc. announced it will license Next Inc.'s zippy object-oriented software. Under a wide-ranging alliance, Sun will license Next's application interface software to run as a layer within Sun's popular Solaris operating system. The software will allow Solaris users to take advantage of Next's powerful object-oriented technology. Instead of writing every software program from scratch, programmers can plug together "objects," or modular pieces of software, to create or customize programs more quickly, saving weeks or even months of work. Sun will also invest $10 million in Next. Next, in turn, will open up its proprietary operating system, called NextStep, by licensing its so-called application environment to all comers, at no charge. The jovial announcement by both companies was in sharp contrast to events earlier this year, when an indignant Steven P. Jobs, Next's chairman, alleged in a memo to employees that Sun was trying to thwart Next's efforts to make its advanced operating software an industry standard. "I think they would rather see us dead than alive," fumed Mr. Jobs, who helped found APPLE COMPUTER Inc. before being ousted in 1985. In response, Sun Chairman Scott McNealy said Next was too small to survive as a major software player. Software developers are hoping that object-oriented programming will relieve the software bottleneck that has prevented them and major corporate users from quickly writing and adapting programs to take advantage of more powerful computer systems or shifting business opportunities. MICROSOFT Corp., whose operating systems run nearly 90% of all personal computers, will offer object technology in a new operating system, code-named Cairo, in late 1994 or early 1995. Apple and INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES Corp. are planning to incorporate object programming tools in their new operating systems as well, using technology being developed by a joint venture called TALIGENT. For Sun, which dominates the market for Unix-based workstations and which had been trying to develop its own objectoriented application interface, the alliance with Next will allow it to beat its major operating-system rivals to market with object technology by more than a year. For Mr. Jobs, the deal offers a chance to make a key portion of NextStep an industry standard, which could sharply increase NextStep's sales. Programs written to take advantage of the NextStep application environment in Solaris or any other operating system will also run on NextStep. Moreover, under the pact with Sun, Mr. Jobs is modifying NextStep to run on the Sparc microprocessors that now run Solaris. "Now they would rather see us alive than dead," quipped Mr. Jobs, who has struggled to find support for Next's workstations and operating system since founding the company. Early this year, he abandoned the computer-system business, and adapted NextStep to run on machines employing Intel Corp.'s best-selling line of microprocessors. Mr. McNealy said tensions between Next and Sun dissipated after Next quit the hardware business and Mr. Jobs agreed to open up his application interface. "In this business, everyone is an enemy and a friend at the same time," he philosophized. For Mr. Jobs, a man famous for trying to go his own way -- with proprietary hardware such as the Macintosh and the Next machine as well as proprietary operating systems -- the decision to open up is a personal milestone. "We were persuaded that the world has changed," Mr. Jobs said. "It's an open-system world." WSJviaNewsEDGE Copyright (c) 1993 Dow Jones and Company, Inc.

We evaluated systems from Compaq, Epson, Gateway2000, Dell, and NeXT (used as a control) and used the benchmark programs NXBench and Benchpress. Our results were rather interesting to say the least and we came to the conclusion that benchmarks aren't worth the diskspace they are stored on.... So, in spirit of our last endeavor, we would like to update our "benchmark" archive since there are now many more NEXTSTEP 3.x compatible systems than there were in June, 1993. Also, some vendors have optimized their hardware and thus the old benchmarks are no longer accurate or in slightest representative. In addition NeXT has released a few updated drivers (mainly video) which, it seems in some cases, to have significantly increased video performance. This is a request for benchmark data. But, before you submit your information, please follow these guidelines: 1) Please use the template at the end of this message or grab it off our archive site. 2) Please mail all results to me via NeXTmail. 3) Please only use the "supported" benchmark programs, NXBench, Benchpress and. DrivePerformance. If you have a benchmark program that you would like to use, please send us a copy so that it can be made available to the public. 4) Please provide all the information that is requested on the template. We would like to be as fair and accurate as possible. Please understand that these benchmarks are only "general" guidelines of a system's performance. We have found that many times the results will be different each time the benchmark is run and this is on the same system. We claim no responsiblity for the accuracy of this information and it is provided only as a service to the general NEXTSTEP community.

We would like a "snapshot" of the results, so you might need to use Grab.app (/NextApps/Grab.app) to grab the window and include it in the mail message.

Sears) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.sysadmin,comp.sys.next.hardware,comp.sys.next.misc Subject: REQUEST: Collecting benchmarks of NEXTSTEP compatible systems Date: 24 Nov 1993 15:41:57 GMT Organization: University of Houston Message-ID: <2cvvc5$o85@menudo.uh.edu> Keywords: archive, UHOOP, benchmark, update NEXTSTEP Benchmarks University of Houston Engineering Computing Center contact: benchmarks@tree.egr.uh.edu INTRO: Last June we made an attempt to benchmark various NEXTSTEP 3.x configurations with hopes to provide some kind of reasonable information to the NEXTSTEP community. We evaluated systems from Compaq, Epson, Gateway2000, Dell, and NeXT (used as a control) and used the benchmark programs NXBench and Benchpress. Our results were rather interesting to say the least and we came to the conclusion that benchmarks aren't worth the diskspace they are stored on.... So, in spirit of our last endeavor, we would like to update our "benchmark" archive since there are now many more NEXTSTEP 3.x compatible systems than there were in June, 1993. Also, some vendors have optimized their hardware and thus the old benchmarks are no longer accurate or in slightest representative. In addition NeXT has released a few updated drivers (mainly video) which, it seems in some cases, to have significantly increased video performance. This is a request for benchmark data. But, before you submit your information, please follow these guidelines: 1) Please use the template at the end of this message or grab it off our archive site. 2) Please mail all results to me via NeXTmail. 3) Please only use the "supported" benchmark programs, NXBench, Benchpress and. DrivePerformance. If you have a benchmark program that you would like to use, please send us a copy so that it can be made available to the public. 4) Please provide all the information that is requested on the template. We would like to be as fair and accurate as possible. Please understand that these benchmarks are only "general" guidelines of a system's performance. We have found that many times the results will be different each time the benchmark is run and this is on the same system. We claim no responsiblity for the accuracy of this information and it is provided only as a service to the general NEXTSTEP community.

We would like a "snapshot" of the results, so you might need to use Grab.app (/NextApps/Grab.app) to grab the window and include it in the mail message. Please use the template as it makes it much easier for us to process the information. All information received will be placed in the archive that is listed below and will be stored in PostScript format, which is the only way we can ensure that the results are not altered.

No one noticed the error since the CD's are shiped direct from the plant. The CD's are being redone and a new verson should be out in about 3 weeks. Thay are still selling the expo edition CD's which has about 500 Megs of NeXT (040 )software on it. For more info E-Mail them at next@jana.com. The price has been reduced to 14.95 I think.

What about the much-ballyhood COSE and its common UI (can't think of the acronym, there are sooo many :-? Will Sun support 2 completely different GUI's? They have before... And what's Sun going to do with its new romance with Motif? Are we going to see OpenStep/X? I can't believe that Sun would abandone X although they really had it rammed down their throats and would have preferred to develop NeWS, the PostScript-based window system pioneered by Sun. So Sun may still have a preference to a PostScript-based window system like DPS, but its investment in X is huge. And what about the industry standard, C++? Will we see OpenStep/C++, an implementation in C++ rather than Objective-C? All this seems rather amazing, but maybe its just going to be a minor part of Sun's strategy, maybe driven by some of Sun's large customers in the financial services industry who are familiar with NeXTSTEP. So these few customers will get OpenStep/Solaris and everyone else will continue slogging along with Motif/Solaris. Sun has always supported PostScript. First with NeWS, and now with Display PostScript. Since Display PostScript ties in nicely as an X extension, abandoning X really isn't an issue for Sun. I suspect that once NEXTSTEP is on Solaris, the choice between NEXTSTEP and X/Motif will be a command line option. Oh, this user wants NEXTSTEP, run .NEXTINIT from their .login file... This deal may even push NeXT into doing to work required to talk to X servers from NEXTSTEP code. Well, as for C++, I can't understand why it's an industry standard. It's syntax is a mess, and it seems to be just off the mark on a lot of things. If this agreement solidifies the acceptability of Objective C, all the better. Objective C is a more productive language, especially for dynamic code-bundle based systems. C++ just does not have the capability of allowing something like OpenStep to be programmed in it easily. I sure wouldn't want to be the poor sucker who will be made to try. What I think it signals overall is an intelligent switch in software directions for Sun. Zanders has all but eliminated the deadly NIH that seemed to be pervasive at Sun previously. NIH may be short-term profitable, but it can be long-term deadly when it makes a company ignore the build/buy decision. With Sun's willingness to license software, rather than trying to build everything itself, you end up with a company that can move faster toward quality and/or standards at less expense. I see the same things signaled on NeXTs side. NeXT was never a big enough company to "go it alone", and we're no longer in the beginning game in the computer industry where any small company can think up something and make it a standard. The industry is pervasive enough now that the people-momentum required to create a standard is huge - and it takes the weight of a Sun or HP to move something in "standard" position. Even Microsoft is going to find it hard to manufacture NT into a standard. For HP, this has to be good news, as it solidifies their choice to go with NEXTSTEP, and should help generate larger sales when NEXTSTEP/PA-Risc is released. HP, however, couldn't have structured a deal such as Sun did - SunOS5 has the prerequisite plumbing to act as a host for NEXTSTEP, HP-UX doesn't. -- Scott Byer NeXTMail: byer@mv.us.adobe.com Adobe Systems Incorporated These are *my* opinions, and 1585 Charleston Road, P.O.

Lmgrd represents the most oppressive and anal-retentive software protection scheme that I have ever seen. I passionately hate it, and I am very glad that once NeXTstep/Solaris comes out, you can develop for the SPARC platform using gcc & NeXT's tools rather than the garbage Sun calls SPARCworks.

NeXT uses the BSD 4.3 filesystem, which is used by some other unixes. However, Sun is stuck with using the older BSD 4.2 filesystem, and they are not compatible, as you have discovered. :-) You could use DOS format to transfer the files; you could also write to the disk in raw format using tar: tar xvf /dev/fd0a _files_ (or whatever device the floppy drive maps to on the Sun).... -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

I don't understand what you're saying here. The Mach kernel was developed at CMU, and there is a fairly large group of people who are still working on it; unsurprisingly it's known as the "Mach project". NeXT uses an older version of Mach (version 2.5), that is a monolithic kernel design, rather than the newer microkernel design of Mach 3.x. As to why people would use it rather than a traditional BSD or SVR4 kernel, well, Mach has a much cleaner design, is smaller and faster, supports multiprocessor machines more gracefully, and has a cool name, too. :-) Note that the kernel is only part of what makes up a unix version such as BSD4.3 or System V. Other parts of the system, such as the traditional unix utilities (like ls, df, awk, sed, etc) also differ between SysV and BSD. The versions of these utilities that NeXT ships are based off of the BSD versions, which I consider to be superior to the SysV versions. Note that the differences between BSD & SysV are converging as a result of the various ANSI and POSIX standards. Also, note that to an application, so long as the kernel provides the standard set of operating system calls, one doesn't care whether which specific kernel you actually use. It's why you can use Mach as if you had a traditional BSD4.3 kernel. > I probably wouldn't and I have never liked System V although my > last experience was with Release 3, a real archaic version compared with > 4.3BSD (and probably Release 4).

Anybody seen or heard from Dr. Mach, Avie > Tevanian, lately? He seems to be keeping a pretty low profile (hope he > hasn't disappeared in the night like so many of NeXT's employees). The last I heard, Avie works at Microsoft, working with the lower levels of the Window NT kernel (what else ;-). I don't believe that he ever worked for NeXT, but I'm not real sure about that. I don't believe that NeXT is too small to compete; I see them taking on Microsoft and winning, at least on the grounds of esthetics, technical superiority, and vastly superior human-computer interaction; as to numbers, Microsoft *is* much bigger and sells a lot more, but this just proves that the majority is not always right (the herd instinct, I suppose).... > And what's Sun going to do with its new romance with Motif?

Since Sun has DPS as an extension to X (NeWS), you actually should be able to use NeXTstep (or OpenStep) GUI programs and have them display using this X extension. > And what about the industry standard, C++? Will we see OpenStep/C++, > an implementation in C++ rather than Objective-C? I don't believe that C++ is powerful enough to create OpenStep without some truely grotesque hackery. Take a look at how well people are trying to do object-oriented programming with C++ and one has to conclude that Obj-C is a big winner. A large part of the success of NeXTstep is probably due to their choice of using Obj-C from the ground up. IMHO, -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

Yeah, I suspect NS 3.3 will have PA-RISC and SPARC options for fat binaries (we're talking seriously obese!). The real question is wether NeXTSTEP fat binaries will run under "Solaris OpenStep", or just SPARC NeXTSTEP. It is possible that OpenStep will have to use COFF or whatever SysVism is standard in Solaris, rather than Mach-O and fat executables. -- Ernie P. -- Ernest N.

I have experienced less than satisfactory results from APS SCSI drives, but the number of people who might be in my situation is probably pretty small. APS has great prices, but their quality is not suffient for installation in any setup requiring high fidelity audio. So, if you've based your digital audio production studio - or even a simple MIDI studio - around your NeXTSTEP computer, you might want to think about making your purchase elsewhere. I had severe problems with noise as soon as I hooked up the APS SCSI drive. The problem was isolated to their inexpensive enclosure, and this was verified by moving the Quantum SCSI drive from the APS enclosure to another enclosure which did not cause any noise. Oddly enough, the higher quality enclosure which worked was no more expensive than what APS charges for their cases, but you can't send the case back for any kind of significant refund after taking out the drive. So, if you don't care about audio, or if your APS equipment will never be on the same circuit as your audio equipment, then enjoy the savings. Otherwise, you may want to investigate their 30-day return policy. -- Brian Willoughby Software Design Engineer, BSEE from NCSU NeXTmail welcome Sound Consulting: Software Design and Development BrianW@SoundS.WA.com Bellevue, WA

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to Michael Ross at antigone.com, the main NEXTSTEP groups are now available as a mailing list digest as well. next-nextstep-d next-advocacy-d next-announce-d next-bugs-d next-hardware-d next-marketplace-d next-misc-d next-programmer-d next-software-d next-sysadmin-d (For a full description, send mail saying LISTS to <digestif@antigone.com>).

Hmm... The fact that lmgrd prevents you from running more copies of software than you paid for is not really irksome. The fact that version 2.26 of lmgrd is incompatible with version 2.23, combined with the fact that both versions seem to be prevalent is _very_ irksome. So irksome that it leads one to make rather negative speculations about the competence of the implementers of lmgrd. To add insult to injury, SunSoft ships you a 90-page manual entirely devoted to the fascinating topic of lmgrd installations... The manual is completely silent on the matter of backwards compatibility. :-( Meanwhile my $500 Borland compiler installs itself automatically and (on a 486/66) compiles roughly three times as fast as SPARCworks C++ (on a SPARC 10/41). -Scott -- Scott Meyer scott@corybant.rmNUG.ORG - NeXT mail is welcome.

Patton's choice of words makes it appear that he (the "writer") has no output jacks of his own and must be very uncomfortably crammed with all that raw sewage he spews using a book written by someone else to obtain his own paycheck from _Wired_. I am surprised that Mr. Patton is allowed to write in _Wired_ with his very weak and not very pretty ad hominem arguments. I know that most people will ignore or chuckle over what he has written about what someone else has written about Steve Jobs and NeXT. Possibly someone might refer Patton to news of the recent Sun/NeXT relationship. As a NEXTSTEP developer, I wonder if Patton has ever heard the phrase, "operating system." I know it would be unfair for me to expect him to know how to spell NEXTSTEP correctly and it would be even more unfair of me to expect that Patton has ever perused Usenet. Because if he had ever seen any of the c.s.n.misc or related newsgroups, he would be able to write about something other than his proclaimed "neat irony." The neat irony about Patton is that his puerile comments stick out like a sore thumb amidst the excellent,authoritative, and colorful pages of _Wired_ that smell so good. Patton is likely incapable of this. What a dunce! No flames intended, but I wanted to let you know what at least one of your subscribers thinks about Patton's precious and fatuous review of a review. _Wired_ can do a lot better. -73- --- Marshall F.

My system: NeXT station 68040. I read already all doc's about using the port for both input and output (/dev/cua + /dev/ttyda). No problem on that part. However changing the D9600 in /etc/ttys in D19200 doesn't work. Or should it be DEXTA, I read something like that in the man-pages. Probably it is something (and very basic) in the /etc/gettytab that must be changed. Who has a nice recipe for this. If you E-mail your responses, I will summarize.

And, it's cool. (Don't forget that last part :) Well, not for me. But then it finally occurred to me that the NS/M and NS/I 3.1 User CD's were likely to be different in what they had on them, as well as the differences in the underlying binaries, etc. In fact, it finally also occurred to me that I already knew that SoftPC wasn't due for NS/I until 3.2. I won't comment on whether or not it's cool, since Hardy Meyer has already posted a contrary opinion.

Because that <unprintable> lmgrd assigns a licence to a specific user/machine combination for 30 minutes. Noone else (including you) can use the compiler from another machine, and you cannot use the compiler from another userid on the same machine (a real pain to sysadmins who are on as both themselves and root) during this time period. Since this is only Sun-supported ANSI C compiler for SPARC machines, you end up having to pay Sun a lot of money if you want to get a usable compilation environment. Yes, you can get gcc from the FSF, but where do you get usable header files? Fixincludes can do a lot, but it won't unmangle pure K&R includes into ANSI C includes. You lose argument type-checking at the least. -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1. You can't fly. --------------------------------------------+ 2.

It's not a bug, but it is a feature, unless NG also becomes sluggish on Mono cubes and stations after viewing color RTF. If you want to avoid sluggishness and are willing to lose color capability for NewsGrazer, do from shell: dwrite NewsGrazer NXWindowDepthLimit TwoBitGray This will prevent NewsGrazer windows from promotings its window depth to color. Don't do this with FrameMaker or WordPerfect, though, they run faster when their windows are in RGB depth on Color stations. What NEXTSTEP should support is *user-activated* Window Depth un-promotion (or should I say "demotion" (?, I am not native)), whereby we can explicitly reduce the window depth of a specified window without destroying and recreating it.

I have a 16550 UART, and I have major character loss even at 9600 bps under NeXTstep. I have no problem whatsoever under Linux. Although a 16550 is a necessity, it is NOT the solution as far as NeXTstep is concerned. Although I rarely get serial port-related crashes (and serial-port related crashes are the only kinds I have), the character-loss is unacceptable. Admitted, I have a serial mouse connected to another 16550, and that may be part of the problem. However, I seem to get the most character loss whenever ANYTHING besides the kermit (in my case) process is using ANY CPU time... Why are the serial ports such a problem?

There are a varierty of Mac sound formats. The most common is what you describe - an essentially flat file. The waveform data is in the data fork (a flat dataspace, the one you can access via the Workspace when you mount a Mac filesystem under NEXTSTEP). There's an info resource in the resource fork which contains the sample rate, etc. When you use GISO/SOX you manually specify this data. MetroTools reads it if it's available. Another common Mac sound format consist of waveforms and header information soley contained in 'snd' resources (which are, of course, in the resource fork). These can either be viewed as sound suitcases or sounds embedded in Mac apps (or the System file, etc). Although initially considerably more rare than "flat" sound files, 'snd' resources have become more popular. MetroTools is the only NEXTSTEP software I'm aware of that reads this format, although SoundWorks v3.0 might.

I think the point is that the API -includes- PostScript constructs as part of its specification: i.e., pswraps, fonts, and window contexts (not to mention PS and DPS function calls) can all be used by OpenStep programs. Of course that just means the Display PostScript 'spec' is part of the API, and the implementation can vary. However, I do not think any of the other imaging models is capable of simulating Display PostScript (nor, for that matter, is GhostScript). I have no idea how much effort it would be to emulate all of DPS (fonts, contexts, coordinate transforms, etc.), but I suspect it is non-trivial enough that all commercial implementations will just license it from Adobe (if they haven't already). -- Ernie P. -- Ernest N.

So, the bottom line then would be: - NeXTSTEP apps would be (FAT) -binary- compatible across platforms but - OpenStep apps would only be -source- compatible with NeXTSTEP and other OpenStep implementations Which would imply that sites with primarily SPARC and Solaris systems would want OS/Solaris, but sites with Intel and HP NeXTSTEP machines would prefer NS/SPARC. Does that seem to be the way they'd divide up the pie? [OpenStep = OS? ick. Would an IBM port be OS/OS/2 == 2/1?]. - Ernie P. -- Ernest N.

I've been reading these groups off and on, and want to avoid what seems like a huge amount of incompatibilities and problems with certain vendors products. I also would like to get an idea of where I should invest the most money to get the best performance/price ratio... Does anyone have a set-up that they are expecially pleased with that they could share with me? Also, what would be considered a top of the line machine (where money is no object) in terms of speed and reliability? I've seen the list of vendors available from nextanswers and it is HUGE. What I am looking for are specific experiences "from the field". Referalls to past magazine articles would also be nice! Thanks! Christian -- shay@netcom.com

I think that Microsoft's employees have access to real-time news feeds which they use to keep up to date on what's happening in the world. Since Microsoft pays the data vendors for the data, they have to tell their employees not to redistribute it (violation of copyright and all). It's very reasonable, and it's good to see a company helping its employees keep themselves informed. It's not a conspiracy, nor is MS shaking in its boots. (yet? :-). - darcy

Probably not easily, depending on what you think of as easy. But if you're talking about handling incoming calls at the home end, you already have everything you need to handle dialin terminal sessions. Dialup-IP can act as a SLIP server, if you like. > > D) If Xwindows is installed on the NeXT with the modem, can > one (although slowly because of slow 14.4K modem) run xwindows > programs elsewhere but use them locally at home using, > say, xremote, or whatever? Very probably. I'm not an X expert and don't use it, but someone around here must know. >Basically, how well is a NeXT going to function with a high speed modem? >I mean, is this common? Or are all NeXT's on the internet and nobody >bothers to stick modems on them? I think X is not going to be very fast. But ascii terminal sessions and kermit transfers go pretty fast. Yes, it's extremely common. Of course, all *good* folks are directly on the Internet. :-) I'm running a 128K ISDN connection these days, which puts my home machine more or less directly on the net. But I still maintain a modem between the home NeXT and my office NeXT in case something acts up.

The hardware is Intel GX Pro, 330MB SCSI HD, 16MB RAM. NS3.1 operating system. Everything works fine if I sign on as my normal user account. But if I log in as "root", the dock comes up but I never see the File Viewer! Even if I double click on the NeXT logo icon!! Only the Terminal app on the dock comes up. The other apps on the dock are: Preferences, Mail, Edit, and four NextAdmin/... apps. If I double click on any of them, nothing happens (but I do hear the hard disk make a brief flurry of activity). I checked /tmp/console.log and /usr/adm/messages and there's this message logged when I run Terminal.app: Terminal[214]: Assertion failed: App Kit error: Error messaging drag service When I try to double click on Preferences, nothing happens, but then if I go inspect console.log, there's a new line: Preferences[212]: App Kit: Pasteboard Mach messaging error #-102, in (null pointer) .... hey, as I was typing all this, I heard the hard disk go very busy... I looked over at the machine right now and all the icons on the dock are highlighted, as if they were all just clicked! Now UserMgr works, NFSManager works, SimpleNetworkStarter works... Edit still doesn't work.. hmm I just checked console.log again, and there are more "assertion error" messages for the apps I just mentioned in previous paragraph!!! Help! I need to use the root again!! What am I gonna do!?!? [It's times like these that it boggles my mind I cannot call NeXT itself for help, without paying. I did nothing wrong, this machine has worked fine, and now exhibits these problems.] Some more info... the machine is on a net with some other machines. Ping works fine, ftp works fine, some files are NSF-shared and all is well. I cannot find any trouble with the network. It just seems that the root login on this machine has bitten the dust. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... we can't afford to have this machine down for long... Thanks, -bd /brian dear/coconut computing, inc./brian@coconut.com/

Message-ID: <QCMJB32F@gwdu03.gwdg.de> Organization: GWDG, Goettingen Date: Mon, 29 Nov 1993 14:13:44 GMT Just read an article about MPP (massive parallel processing). They mentioned Convex and their SPP operating system running on HP-7100 processors. The Convex machines are said to have a user layer, where HP-UX programs can be executed. So now since NS will be available soon for HP risc systems, does anybody know if this will also affect the Convex machines? I could imagine that NS technology could be a very interesting thing on parallel architectures. I'm not into parallel programming but it seems to me that NS (being object oriented, having PDO ...) might be a good basis for a parallel system. Is the market still too small or (and) does the NS technology not fit into parallel architectures? Any infos on that? Meinrad -- Meinrad Zeller Foehrenweg 1 D-37077 Goettingen Tel.: +49-551-300095

In article <CH7oMn.InC@cc.umontreal.ca> kosmatoo@JSP.UMontreal.CA (Kosmatos Odisseas) writes: C) write programs in C on the NeXT that can access the modem? (for example, when the ring detect line on the modem, which I hope the NeXT's have, is activated, can I easily write a program to do so?) No, apart from a few special functions which are supported by ioctls (man zs), this would be very difficult to do. On the other hand, I can not think of many good reasons why you'd want to. Most applications of modems are directly supported by the OS already, so there should be no need to do anything as low level as that. D) If Xwindows is installed on the NeXT with the modem, can one (although slowly because of slow 14.4K modem) run xwindows programs elsewhere but use them locally at home using, say, xremote, or whatever? If you run SLIP, you can use the standard methods for running X applications remotely and displaying them locally (and vice versa). With modern V32.bis/V42.bis modems the performance is actually surprisingly good. xterms or emacs will run very smoothly. Graphics intensive applications are of course an exception though even here you may be surprised how usable X can be over a low bandwidth link. Using xremote instead of SLIP will significantly improve your X performance, but you'll not any longer be directly on the net with all the attendant benefits (rlogin, telnet, NNTP, mail and many more), so unless you are going to be a very heavy X user I'd advise against it. And even if you are, I'd suggest you give plain SLIP a try first. Basically, how well is a NeXT going to function with a high speed modem? I mean, is this common? Or are all NeXT's on the internet and nobody bothers to stick modems on them? Fairly common. Quite a few of the people on the net actually do use SLIP with NeXTs and those who do are almost uniformly very happy with it. But note, that I'm referring to 68040 (not i386, not 68030) hardware only here. Carl Edman

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. comp.sys.next.announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. comp.sys.next.bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. comp.sys.next.marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. comp.sys.next.misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! comp.sys.next.programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. comp.sys.next.software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. comp.sys.next.sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups comp.soft-sys.nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. comp.lang.objective-c Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. comp.object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original comp.sys.next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to Michael Ross at antigone.com, the main NEXTSTEP groups are now available as a mailing list digest as well. next-nextstep-d next-advocacy-d next-announce-d next-bugs-d next-hardware-d next-marketplace-d next-misc-d next-programmer-d next-software-d next-sysadmin-d (For a full description, send mail saying LISTS to <digestif@antigone.com>).

I did this for a site that wanted the optical drive from a cube to be available transparently across a network of 3 NeXTs. 1. First, rename all the optical disks to one standard name, eg. "OpticalDisk" 2. Create a script file that exports the optical disk directory: (ExportOD) exportfs -i /OpticalDisk 3. Create another script file that mounts the optical disk: (MountOD) /usr/etc/mount -t nfs host1:/OpticalDisk /OpticalDisk 4. As root, make the scripts suid 5. Create a third script that runs the ExportOD script on the cube w/ OD and then runs the MountOD command on each of the other hosts: rsh host1 /usr/local/bin/ExportOD rsh host2 /usr/local/bin/MountOD rsh host3 /usr/local/bin/MountOD ... Note that this assumes that you have a .rhosts entry for the user on all the different hosts on the network. That's it! The third script can be run from any host on the network, and the optical drive becomes accessable. To reverse the whole procedure, you need to unmount the /OpticalDisk directory from each of the hosts, and then remove the export from the cube: umount /OpticalDisk //run on each of the hosts export -u /OpticalDisk //run on the cube To make this really fancy, you can check at the beginning of this script if the mount already exist. Mount the disk if it does not already exist, and unmount it if it is already mounted. Finally, give this script a .daemon extension, and double-clicking on the icon will launch the script from within the Workspace without opening up a terminal window. The messages will then appear in the Console. The disk is unmounted by rerunning the same script. Put this script on the shelf, and even the most timid user will be able to have access to the optical drive with a simple mouse click. Hope this isn't too confusing, and if anybody wants the original scipts I wrote, send me an e-mail. Varun

The devil will be in the details, but I think Ernest is right about the DPS part. I suppose it would be possible to divorce NEXTSTEP from DPS at the API level, but if you're going to do that, you might as well rewrite NEXTSTEP from scratch. It would probably be less work to write a DPS clone. It remains to be seen just how hard porting from NEXTSTEP 3.X to OpenStep is going to be. The "operating system independent portions of the API" is practically meaningless in a world where most people consider "fopen" and "bcopy" to be part of the OS! Here's my guess at what the OpenStep API will be: All of /usr/include (particularly appkit, dbkit, dpsclient, and objc), except that bsd/* and mach*/* are replaced by equivalents in POSIX.1 or SVID or CDE or DCE. For example, I'd expect all the stdio.h/stdc.h stuff to come from POSIX.1, the RPC stuff to come from DCE, the network stuff to come from SVID, etc. Ports and messaging will probably be abstracted, or omitted entirely in favor of using the higher level abstraction of DO and PDO. cthreads could be replaced by pthreads, or could become a higher level abstraction. In terms of user level features, I'd expect NEXTIME and RenderMan to be omitted, but everything else that we know and love should be there. It's possible that NeXT will do something similar to Microsoft's Win32, Win32s, and Win32c. That is, NEXTSTEP 3.2 (Win32) is the superset API, in which there already exists an OS-independent subset (Win32s) which will form the basis for OpenStep. NEXTSTEP 3.3 (Win32(Win32c)) will add some abstractions so that programs targeted for OpenStep will compile and run on both flavors. I wonder if they'll do an ABI as well, so that native SPARC NEXTSTEP 3.2++ will just run on SPARC OpenStep, and vice versa. If OpenStep is to run on Solaris, this probably won't happen (MAB ELF?

I then called NeXT to find out if I can order an Academic Bundle directly through them (btw, I explained I wanted this for Moto HW). They said, "No," I would have to order it through our campus bookstore, but they at least gave me the number for the organization that our campus bookstore has to order through. I thought at least this way I could get a part number and give it to the campus shop. So I called this new number, and they said they only had part numbers for NS 3.2 for Intel hardware. They didn't know anything about Moto HW! So I called NeXT again! This time they I spoke to someone else (name Dameon, or something like that), and I could order the NeXT upgrade through them (ahh, I should have said "upgrade" and not implied "new purchase"). BUT, get this: o I could not get 3.2; I had to order 3.1, when I get that, call in my free upgrade to 3.2 and then wait for that to arrive! o There is NO Academic Price! I had to pay the $195 for the User vesion AND the $495 for the Developer's extension! Has anyone out there gotten NS 3.2 for black hardware at an Academic Price?

For example, on my Intel machine, *.frame files now come up with the FrameMaker icon rather than the default icon (text file). If I double click on the *.frame file, I get a panel telling me that the application doesn't contain software for this kind of computer. Much nicer than having a binary format come up in Edit. Also, application icons not available for the current architecture come up as muted rather than a big question mark. Nicer visual queues all around. Now if there was only some way of specifying a server for a particular architecture. That is, if I am running on Intel and double click on an app or app icon that is only available for Motorola hardware, I want the app to be launched on host xxx.yyy.zzz and displayed on my console. OpenSesame is a step in the right direction, but it would be nice for the process to be more transparent. -- Ray Ghanbari Mayo Foundation ray@mayo.edu

Why is this just intel? Is there a _real_ problem with compiling it for black hardware? Without being a NeRD (or even an unregistered developer!) I have tried to follow the MAB discussion and according to some of the claims, the makers of DOOM should just be able to re-compile it for black (testing not withstanding).

I asked ID about this, and in order to get reasonable performance on MOTO hardware, a few routines need to be done in assembly. They aren't yet done, and apparently won't be until the DOS version ships. But have hope: there _will_ be a black version. That news makes me happy.

This is one of those things that annoys me about NeXT. It's like they don't really have a clue with shipping stuff (or perhaps they contract to shippers who don't have a clue).

What exactly does this mean? ie what does "compatible" mean in this sense? I'm an administrator on a Novell lan and I am also the department's Unix administrator. Most of my work is on the Novell/PC side. I currently use a PC running DOS/Windows and use the Clarkson Telnet package to do my Unix work. However as I get into more WWW work and graphics on the Unix side I find Telnet just isn't cutting it. If NS/FIP's Novell compatibility means that I have NS versions of the NetWare tools, then I would be in seventh heaven. If I can simply fire up "syscon" from an NS shell then that would be helpful. One OS lets me do it all. If NS/FIP's Novell compatibility is limited to the ability to login to servers, mount drives, and access print queues I would be much less excited. (PS I know about dual boot and that's not an option, and I know about SoftPC and I would prefer NS native apps). So, would anyone out there who has NS/FIP running on a Novell NetWare network be willing to enlighten me? Thanks!

Who is responsible for the Hardware list and >does it really lie? Oh, the 1742 is supported; I'm using it right now under 3.2. However, the 1742 has two modes -- an "EISA enhanced" mode, which is what people buy the damn thing for, and a "1542 standard" mode that renders it no better than a, well, 1542. So guess which one NeXTSTEP supports? What makes me upset is that the original hardware guide said that the 1742 wasn't supported, would be supported in the 3.2 release. Okay, no problem, I'll just use the thing in the 1542 mode. Then I find out that it won't even work in 1542 mode due to a bug in Adaptec's firmware. Okay, so this isn't NeXT's fault is it? I'll just wait for the 3.2 release. Now, it turns out that there is _still_ no native 1742 support, which means that either: 1) NeXT knew of the Adaptec bug before 3.1 was released and didn't bother to fix it or announce the incompatability, or 2) they decided to take the easy way out and work around Adaptec's bug rather than writing a new driver. However, since I believe that the EISA Buslogic is directly supported, I'm tempted to state: 3) NeXT doesn't even have any 1742's to test software on, hence, they can't write a driver for it. Okay, the latter was a cheap shot. But I still want native 1742 support. -- Jonathan

It isn't really surprising that the 3DKit is NOT a part of the OpenStep API-- it would require that one include the license for RenderMan (& quick renderman-- which doesn't exist on most platforms) w/each OpenStep implementation. That would be a drag. Of course, by not including the 3DKit as a part of the OpenStep API, it leaves a window of oppurtunity for anyone who wishes to build a kit that it is compatible w/the 3DKit's API, but has an underlying graphic implementation that is based on something a bit more powerful/interactive...

Even tho my computer (a gateway 2000) lets me diable one of the ports, and have the modem respond as either com1 or com2, this doesn't work with nextstep. So, I guess I need a serial driver for my internal modem.. or some sort of driver... does anyone know of one? 3) Communication: the booklet on 3rd party software companies that came with NS/I 3.1 listed a couple terminal emulation communicatins programs that do all of hte neat stuff like zmodem, etc.. Does anyone know of a freeware/net version of these? Or do any of the commercial ones come wiht support for internal modems? Also, does anyone know of a copy of SLIP or PPP that works on NS/I (again, freeware/net version pref.) 4) Is there a way to get SoftPC to use my real dos partition as its C drive, instead of assigning it to another drive letter?

It is VERY VERY VERY important to watch the capslock key. The keys will only work in lower-case. This got me and a few friends several times (I think the capslock key on my keyboard has a bad habit of turning on at semi-random occasions). If this isn't your problem, <shrug>. Here are the secrets on the first level: When you cross over that slime-pit thing, look at where that monster is shooting you from. When you open the door at the other end, that thing he's standing on drops down to reveal a chamber with a shotgun, etc, in it. Also, along the right wall after you walk in the door across the slime pit, there is a secret door that allows you to go outside. We haven't found all the secrets in the second level yet. But, when you first enter the level, notice that one group of rooms in the center of the chamber you're in? There's a secret door on the right wall, facing out into the big chamber. Inside, there's a red button. When you press that button, a door opens in one of the stairways to the east that allows you to go outside. That's just one...there are several more that I can't remember. Yeah, only get this game if you have free time. Also, don't get this game if you're living in a dorm. I can hardly use my computer anymore-- several people on my floor are always waiting to play Doom!

That would be a drag. > Yes and no. I could easily see saying that OpenStep has to have the RenderMan api (i.e. a qrman-like implementation), but doesn't have prman (and it's associated tools, like the shader compiler). After all, you don't expect to get a Postscript printer when you buy a NeXT machine - you take your Postscript output to a Postscript printer to get it printed, otherwise you make do with what you see on the screen. RIB files serve exactly the same purpose, it just so happens that people are used to getting the printer (since it's *just* software) for free. Given the way NeXT has structured the 3DKit to make photorealistic rendering seem like printing (i.e. rendering as a TIFF or EPS is a separate activity from going to the screen), it makes perfect sense. I think the main problem is political - there are really only 2 contenders out there for an interactive 3D standard - PEX and OpenGL. SUN probably has a PEX product, but I believe 3rd parties supply OpenGL. As I've said before, writing a qrman based on top of OpenGL would not be that hard (i.e. giving image quality comparable to qrman under NS 3.1, with the addition of trimmed nurbs). Writing a qrman on top of anything except OpenGL (say, PEX) *would* be a major nightm... err, undertaking. The OpenGL way only involves licensing the RenderMan API from Pixar, not getting any code, per se. Of course, this then requires that OpenStep requires OpenGL, and therein lies the rub. Of course, since OpenGL runs on pretty much everything (including NT, although it's demoing, not shipping), people should admit that RenderMan is not really the Postscript of the 3D world -- OpenGL + RenderMan is. RenderMan does things (programmable shading) that OpenGL doesn't do, and OpenGL does things (real-time implementations on most platforms) that RenderMan doesn't. If this deal were NeXT and SGI, I bet 3DKit would have remained, but given that it's SUN (who has always had multiple heads up their ass when it comes to 3D (PHIGS, the TAAC board, any of various incompatible visualization environments, the old RenderMan compatible product, etc.), it gets punted. Makes sense, unfortunately. This of course means that we'll see no explosion of 3D widgets under NS. I have some, but they really need the performance of a faster than old NeXT hardware to be able to be used with impunity. Damn shame, this... > Of course, by not including the 3DKit as a part of the OpenStep API, it > leaves a window of oppurtunity for anyone who wishes to build a kit that it > is compatible w/the 3DKit's API, but has an underlying graphic > implementation that is based on something a bit more > powerful/interactive... > > How about a 3DKit implementation under OpenStep for SillyGraphics that uses > GL? > I've designed one, and written my own 3DKit on top of NeXT's with the intention of porting it to OpenGL/Tk. I'll probably get around to it in the spring, since we just got our new crop of Indigo2/Extreme and Onyx/Reality Engine machines last week (but exams/holidays are fast approaching). I designed it this summer, but have been waiting for IRIX 5.1 with OpenGL to actually go and do it. I will do it, too, because I need this for my PhD system. Of course, this is my 3DKit on top of NeXT's 3DKit, so I can pick and choose what I need, but I support the whole RenderMan spec, so it's not as bogus as it sounds. Go down to your local bookstore and pick up a copy of the two OpenGL books and compare the features of RenderMan with OpenGL. Except for programmable shading, it's pretty close to a one-to-one correspondence. Like I said, challenging, but brain surgery, it's not. BTW, I don't know that I'd call this a "window of opportunity". I think I'd just call it a pain in the ass.... (boy, that wave sure is grumpy today, isn't he?

Date: 4 Dec 1993 00:29:50 GMT Organization: Dept. of Neuroscience, U. of Pennsylvania Distribution: world Message-ID: <2dollu$5qq@netnews.upenn.edu> I'm running NSI 3.1 on a DECpc MTEd2 w/ adaptec 1542b SCSI controller. Both components are listed in the hardwaare compatability guide. A Syquest 105 MB removeable hard disk drive is attached to the SCSI bus, and it works properly under DOS-- I can format removeable disks and have them appear as separate DOS drives. When I boot NextStep, the syquest drive is properly recognized during SCSI reset. However, when I login to the workspace a message box pops up: Workspace: The SCSI disk in unreadable. and gives me the option to either "eject" or "initialize". If I attempt to initialize the disk with a NextStep filesystem, I get the following error box. Cannot initialize disk. See console for errors. The message in the console is: Writing disk label. Can't write label-- disk is unuseable! I/O error. ...even though DOS finds the disk to be "useable". Someone from Next support told me that he used to use a Syquest 44Mb removeable drive on his black hardware, so it seemed odd to me that this didn't work under NSI. Has anyone got the syquest drives to work on "white" hardware? Am I missing something? Are there any workarounds? I would really like to use these drives under NSI. Greatly appreciated any clues/hints/help. Thanks. Joe Panico joe@retina.anatomy.upenn.edu

Frankly, that one annoyed me a lot more. When I was trying Mail.app the automatic retrieval bug never bothered me because it changed the app's icon appropriately. Although it didn't go out and get the mail until I had opened it, it did change the icon to the fanned mail, so I at least knew I had some new mail to read. Simply making the app unhidden on autolaunch seemed to help minimize the time spent waiting for Mail.app to parse and index the incoming mail (or whatever it's doing in that lengthy delay between when it goes out to get the mail from the spoolfile and when you can click on a message to read). However, the bug with the trailing spaces bothered me to the point of making Mail.app completely useless for me. It is simply the case that not everyone I talk to via e-mail has an NS machine and uses Mail.app with which to send me mail, and I require that mail show up on the destination user's screen as I wrote it. So I ditched Mail.app and now use a much more reliable, powerful and faster mailer (one that's also free from the net). Another upshot of using a CLI mailer is that I can use the same mailer from many machines on which I work. Thanks to this, I'm not forced to read my mail only on one machine. With uuencoding and cooperative people that check to see that sending binaries is okay, I've found NeXTmail to be completely unnecessary. Just for the sake of better apps through competition, I wish Appsoft had stuck it out long enough to sell at least v1.0 of their mail application so I could see where they were going with it.

NeXT could, I believe, implement an OOFS simply by changing the AppKit and Workspace, w/o actually changing the underlying UNIX filesystem. After all, the interface is pretty much just a means of querying for things by name, assuming a particular organizational structure. If they didn't care about command-line (shell) access to NeXT objects, they could just rewrite all the 'NX*File' operation, add a specialized Workspace Browser for Object libraries, and it should "Just Work". OpenStep implementations could keep their existing UNIX filesytems, and treat object libraries as single files when outside the OpenStep environment. When inside OpenStep, the Workspace Manager would automatically translate and collate those libraries into some ObjectViewer format. I'm not sure how NeXT is doing it. However, it certainly seems possible for them to implement an OOFS in a way that can act as a layer on top of an existing operating system. This ties into the more general question of whether NeXT intends to make further innovations (and other technology, like 3DKit and PhotoCDKit): - part of the first OpenStep draft [probably not] - part of the second OpenStep draft [whenever that is] - add-ons that people can buy from NeXT [like others do with NetInfo and PDO] - just part of NeXTSTEP to maintain their lead But that, since we don't really know anything about it, should probably only be discussed in advocacy. :-) - Ernie P. -- Ernest N.

Do you know if I can use > NeXT_ AppleTalk from 3.0 on 3.1 or 3.2? I don't think the NeXT software will work under anything but 3.0. I haven't tried it, so I could be wrong. The real issue for me was that the NeXT AppleTalk client only understands AppleTalk packets encapsulated in IP. You need a separate piece of hardware to act as an AppleTalk to IP bridge, and I don't think you can get one for under $500. If you already have a bridge, you can probably use CAP6 to make your cube an AppleTalk server. I ended up going in the other direction, using NFS/Share from Intercon to make the Mac understand NFS. I'm not sure if I'm satisfied; the software basically works but seems to have some bugs. And either the software is slow, or NFS is not very efficient at emulating a Mac filesystem (using AppleDouble). NFS/Share is also expensive for what it does: I paid $258 from Mac's Place. The nice thing about NFS/Share is that the only other thing you need is a piece of Ethernet cable (and a media adapter for the Mac, about $50). There's no interference with AppleTalk, so a printer or AppleTalk network will continue to work normally. You just get an IP connection off the Ethernet port. Garth

If I login to my friend's NeXT from anyplace other than the console, I always have problems with the terminal types. The most noticeable problem is with carriage returns and linefeeds. I don't always get carriage returns, and output looks like: line 1 line 2 line 3 etc. I've tried different terminals, terminal programs for PCs, and xterms on Sun and HP workstations and I get the same results from all of them. However, using any of the above to connect to ANY OTHER place always looks perfect. Has anybody else seen this problem? Please email me at lsloan@umcc.umich.edu if you have any advice. I will get the OS version and model of workstation I am using and post it here. Thanks in advance! -- Lance Sloan lsloan@umcc.umich.edu

Message-ID: <CHMAq9.MoG@news.iastate.edu> Sender: news@news.iastate.edu (USENET News System) Organization: Iowa State University, Ames IA Date: Mon, 6 Dec 1993 14:25:20 GMT Due to a project I've gotten involved with of late I will need to be able to run several X-windows applications on my home NeXTstation. At work we have Co-Xist, which certainly does the job and seems quite usable to boot. For home I'd like a simpler solution, at least initially, both because my wallet is a bit thin at the moment and because disc space is getting a thin as well (clearly, these are related phenomena since a fat wallet could relieve the disc space problem pronto :) Anyway, I went to the archives, poked around, and came up confused. There is McGill-X, an 11 Mb monster, XNeXT from MIT (which seems to be R3 only?) as well as various tools, etc. In addition there are CoXist and Cube-X in the "for $" category. Cube-X even has a pretty good academic price, but that seems to be only for the user suite, not the development one. Before I go and install something as large as Mouse-X, or spend money on Cube-X/CoXist I'd like to have some idea of what I'm getting into (for example, if I start with the free Mouse-X and later want to go to a for $ package, how hard will it be to remove Mouse-X?) What I need, for the moment, is fairly basic functionality, i.e., the ability to run a couple of simple X-based apps on my station in reasonable sprightly fashion. It would be nice if I could grab source off the Net and compile the application here for "basic X" (I recognize that Motif is not "free" and Motif development suites have to be bought). In the long run my wallet will fatten, then my disc will, and then I'll spring for CoXist or CubeX, but by that time I may be running a Sparc10+NeXTstep as well (one can always dream :) Could some knowledgeable soul please give me a quick rundown on any or all of these various packages? What should I get for the moment, and what for the long run? Thanks in advance --- Tom -- Dr. Thomas L.

What you basically have to do is 1) create a named pipe called .plan 2) create a shell script that constantly outputs 'from' to the named pipe 3) run the shell script in the background forever (including each time the machine is rebooted) Creating the named pipe can be a problem since NeXT's mknod won't do it. GNU mknod, so I hear, will work on the NeXT, so I guess that's one approach. There is a function call ( mkfifo(), I think) documented as POSIX ONLY, but I don't know what library to compile it with, so that doesn't do me a lot of good... anybody know? If you get GNU mknod, use it (read the docs, if necessary) to make a named pipe called ~/.plan Then make a script that goes something like: #/bin/csh -f while (1) from > ~/.plan end Then run the script in the background and try it out. I know this is one way it can be done, but I haven't done it recently - the script might not be quite right, but it's something like that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Rick Schultz schultrj@po.nextwork.rose-hulman.edu "Omnia ioctl est."

It is really > ridiculous that I have to bend my neck in order to preview such output. 'enscript' has existed for a long time, and is UNIX-independent. The NeXT previewer observes a new convention for deciding to display a document in Landscape mode, but enscript doesn't know about it. Furthermore, it rotates the page the "wrong" way, according to the same convention. Luckily, you can override this behavior. My man pages are off-line at the moment, so I can't remember the command-line switch for enscript to specify a different prologue, but it's in there somewhere. Here's all you have to do to get this to work: * find the file /usr/lib/transcript/enscript.pro on your system * make your own local copy somewhere, say ~/enscript_landscape.pro * make the following edits to this copy of the file: 1. make the very first line in the file look like this (don't indent it, though; this is just to make the post easier to read) %%Orientation: Landscape 2. Find the line that starts with /Landscape, and comment it out (with a %) and add a line under it, so the net result looks like this: % /Landscape{90 rotate 0 -15840 translate}def /Landscape{-3600 15840 translate 0 -90 rotate}def * Now, when you want to use the "-2r" option in enscript, you should also specify this file as your prologue. You DON'T want to make it your default prologue unless all your files are -2r. The command line will look roughly like this, assuming that -X is the command line switch to supply an alternate prologue (which it's not): enscript -2r -X/home/glenn/enscript_landscape.pro YourFile.txt I have tested this manually by making the changes to the prologue after it is already in the PostScript file, and I am remembering the command-line switch to supply an alternate prologue, but I can't remember what it is, or even definitively that it exists. If you can't find it, you can always write a shell script that post-processes the output of 'enscript' (by writing the PS into a temporary file using the -p option of enscript).

So I did the upgrade on Friday. The process went smoothly, nothing complained. After upgrade, I immediately did (another) level 0 dump to a DAT. Ah, can I 'restore' from that tape? The answer is "yes", but it's probably not obvious to everyone just how. Back on Oct. 6, Charles Robinson posted "Help needed on DAT drive". He did an apparently succesful dump and then found that 'usr/etc/restore tf /dev/rst0' handed back "Tape/disk read error: I/O error". Not a very satisfying dump. Help came the next day from Jochen Richter, who said to try 'mtset -d /dev/nrst0 -i' before invoking the restore command. Mtset comes with scsitools, for which Richter only mentioned "available on the ftp-servers". In my case I was assuming that such an egregious gaffe would SURELY be fixed in 3.2. Indeed, following the suggestions in Ch. 8, called "BackUp" in the the Next SysAdmin manual (v. 3.2), I decided to try an interactive restore: 'restore if /dev/nrst0' gives exactly the same error message that Robinson reported. Note that Robinson was on a NeXT (NS 3.0), but I am on an Epson NX. So, off to look for scsitools. I used Archie to find them in Monterrey, Mexico, but a more convenient place is sonata.cc.purdue.edu:/pub/next/2.0-release/source I had to discard the (Motorola binaries) and 'make mtset' from the source code, which worked fine after I replaced the location of the 2.0 header file with what the compiler suggested. I'm happy to report that Richter's suggestion WORKS AS ADVERTISED, even on 3.2 white hardware. I'm sad, however, that any of this jazz should be necessary. Particularly so for the average guy who expects that doing just what the manual says OUGHT TO WORK AS ADVERTISED. Thank you, Netland, for showing how to do this right (and I also am thankful for having saved Richter's reply back at a time when I didn't know I was going to have to worry about all this.)

For those of you just tuning in, my situation was that I would telnet into my friend's NeXT and newlines would be sent to me as a LF only, not CR/LF. I had tried using different VT-series terminals, PC packages, and xterms on Sun workstations and had this problem on all of them, even when all of those worked fine teletting to ANY other host. (When I used any of the above, if I was going through another Unix host to my destination, TERM and TERMCAP were set correctly before running telnet.) My .login file contained the line: eval `tset -Q -s` And it always got my terminal type right, but it never looked right. I got two good solutions from all these replies: 1. Use rlogin instead of telnet. I was told that telnetd on some NeXT machines is broken, but rlogind is better. I tried this and rlogin does do the trick perfectly. I wonder if there's a telnetd replacement or patch available? 2. stty -extproc If this line is put in my .login, everything looks fine, too. I tried to find extproc in the manpages, but couldn't find it, so I don't know why it works. If you know, PLEASE tell me. Again, thanks for all the info!

It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. comp.sys.next.hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP.

Almost: "sd -nbuf=32" > Could some kind soul please post or email the correct usage, > along with a clear example of what the effect of the changes > really are ? The setting of nbuf adjusts the number of 8K (permenently allocated) buffers by reducing the amount of memory that can be used by the kernel for standard paging. For NeXTstep 3.x, setting nbuf higher than the default of 16 really helps performance. On my 20MB RAM machine, I set nbuf to 64, which seems to be about right. You might want to play around with it and see what you get, but I would recommend a minimum value of 32 for a NeXTstep 3.x system. -Chuck Charles William Swiger -- CMU...*splat*! | 1.

Starting with NS 3.1, I believe, nbuf is set automatically to reflect the amount of RAM present. So I would think that changing it wouldn't be necessary under most situations.

I don't recall if this was introduced in 3.0 or 3.1, but recent versions of the kernel will allocate buffers based on the amount of RAM installed - my cube's '040 board has 28 meg, and it uses 178 buffers: Dec 6 03:49:22 milo mach: using 178 buffers containing 1.39 megabytes of memory The '030 daughterboard only has 8 meg of ram, and it allocates fewer buffers at boottime: Dec 4 16:43:49 batcube mach: using 50 buffers containing 0.39 megabytes of memory NS2.1 doesn't do this, and if you have some memory to spare, using more buffers is a performance win. You can use more buffers by: a) using the -nbuf=xxx flag at boottime (easy, redo at every boot) b) patching the kernel (tricky, but persistant) Hope this is useful.

I missed this. Too bad. I bought the book. Even got Stross to sign it. However, I was at the company Christmas party when he signed it so I couldn't ask any piercing questions. I have read the first chapter where he tries to bring down the researchers at Xerox PARC, plus the excerpts that appeared in the Mercury News. Some of Stross' basic facts are wrong (from how I remember some of the events) and it is obvious that he is not a technical guy and it seems that his one of his basic assumptions is that the results of a decision is not a huge influx of cash, then it is a bad decision, which I disagree with. I will be reading the whole thing during my vacation next week, so if anyone is interested in the opinion of someone who has actually read it, let me know. By the way, someone told me that Steve Jobs took advantage of Wozniak in the pre-Apple days. The story was something like Jobs was redesigning boards and getting a $X bonus for every chip he would remove from the design, then he would take the board to Woz, get him to do the work and tell him the bonus was $X/10 and split it with him and that Woz found out about this much later and still hasn't forgiven Jobs for it.

We have a policy for introducing new technology in our company; we have to discuss our proposal during the weekly manager's meetings. Knowing who the other major companies that have committed to NeXTSTEP is considerred to be important to the decision. What I need is a list of big companies that have committed to NeXTSTEP in some projects. The list has to be current and correct; I'm not looking for rumors. It would also help to know the number of copies that they have committed to, and if possible, what they're using NeXTSTEP for. Our department is really gung-ho about getting NeXTSTEP. It's simply a matter of getting it through the bureaucracy. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Davor Barcan davor@griffin.cuc.ab.ca

Yep, got my `user' before Thanksgiving, but no `developer' so far. Called yesterday and was told that I *was* registered---but before I could make sure that I was registered for the `developer' version I was referred to another number which---you guessed it!---was just a machine. I suspect I'm like many people, I don't really *need* 3.2 right away (though it would be nice) I just want to be sure that it *will* be coming. Actually, I hesitated to make that call because I had visions of phone lines and personel at NeXT tied up reassuring customers instead of doing more productive things. But finally all the reports of lost registrations got to be too much for me. Can't NeXT make better arrangements for their mailings?

Pk., MD 20742 Distribution: world Message-ID: <2e7irm$flo@moonpie.cs.umd.edu> A while back I queried the net to see if the Bernouli 150 drives worked for NS/I. Though no one said it definately did (but it should), I can now say for sure it works. I've been using one on my ALR Pentium system with NS/I 3.2 now for a couple of weeks. I can not get it to mount DOS (FAT) disks; however, NeXT says this is a bug in NS, and they are working on a fix. Also, when I tried to format a new disk, it would not let me format in NeXT format (it said it couldn't write the label). The disk was good, and came preformatted as FAT. I then tried formatting it as a Mac disk, which took over 15 minutes. (BTW, using it as a Mac disk seems very buggy -- if you copy a file to the disk, it doesn't show up until you eject and remount it). Anyway, I was able reformat it as a NeXT disk (which took about 15 seconds), and it has worked great since. It seems about half the speed as my Fujitsu 660 hard drive, but it is more than adequate for doing backups and storing seldom used apps. It is a little noisy, but you get used to it after a while.

Date: 9 Dec 1993 10:31:34 -0600 Organization: UTexas Mail-to-News Gateway Sender: daemon@cs.utexas.edu Message-ID: <9312091625.AA03430@cantina.lanl.gov> In learning how to use the DAT drive, I first tried to do a smaller experiment of doing a level 0 dump on my (smaller) DOS partition, dump 0uf /dev/nrst0 /dev/rsd0h It won't do that, complaining about a "bad sblock magic number". I guess 'dump' only works on Unix filesystems. So, what IS the recommended procedure for backing up a DOS partition? A brief experiment suggests that tar _might_ work. [And, it might not be plagued by long pathnames (if your directory tree isn't too deep).] However, although, the following _looked_ successful, tar cvf dosexpt.tar /ms-dos_6/editors a /ms-dos_6/editors/freemacs/abbrev.def 1 block a /ms-dos_6/editors/freemacs/abbrev.ed 4 blocks a /ms-dos_6/editors/freemacs/abbrev.edd 3 blocks, etc., Opener was unable to extract any files from dosexpt.tar. (It complained about not being able to "set the time" on the directories.) I couldn't find anything about this in the SysAdmin bookshelf. Dick Silbar

Message-ID: <n9240566.755464777@fozzie> Summary: System crashes after CPU upgrade surgery Keywords: CD-ROM, CPU upgrade, broken Sender: news@henson.cc.wwu.edu (USENET-WWU) Organization: Western Washington University Date: 9 Dec 93 19:19:37 GMT *sigh* I've got problems galore and I need some help, and hopefully some solutions. The background to my situation is this: This Tuesday I received a 68040 (25mhz) upgrade board for my 030 cube. My system, before upgrading, consisted of the Cube, with OD and 40M Quantum swap drive (configured as sd1a), a 660M external Fujitsu (sd0a - all one partition), and a NeXT CD-ROM (sd3a). Now, just as a side note, ever since receiving the CD-ROM I thought maybe something was wrong...I had to install NS3.0 basically by hand from the shell. Constantly gave me problems and was only marginally useful (although not as bad as now). At the time, however, I attributed it to the fact that I had about 10 feet of cable between it and the computer (with the Fujitsu in between). Anyhow, more about this later... While installing the new motherboard I performed some other changes to my configuration to get the following: 68040 cube with OD and the 660M Fujitsu as sd0a, with the CD-ROM connected external to the cube (no more swap drive). Now, keep in mind, this was with NO software changes. Okay, now here are my problems... 1) The system has now become *VERY* unstable. Sometimes it crashes from kernal errors, sometimes the Workspace crashes from DPS errors. Basically, I can't get a whole lot done. When upgrading the CPU board, was I supposed to modify the software configuration? Could it be creating some wierd "swap file" that's corrupting my hard drive? (now that the 40M Quantum is no longer there?) Is it likely to be a memory problem? (the extended system testing during power-on/boot shows nothing wrong?) I though about just going ahead and figuring out some way to do a virgin install of 3.1 (or 3.2. if it arrives immediately), but I don't have a floppy drive, I obviously can't boot directly from the CD-ROM, and for some reason I no longer have a BLD script for the OD (and no bootable ODs at present...*sigh* stupid, stupid, stupid). The idea popped into my head today ('cuz it worked when installing 3.0) that I could do the "fake a boot-floppy with an OD" trick...would this work to install 3.1? Anyhow, ideas on solving this would be wonderful. I'm currently trying to borrow somebody's machine to build a bootable OD, but may not be able to do so anytime soon. 2) My CD-ROM has totally flaked out. I have the 68040 cable that was mitakenly sent the first time around with my Fujitsu HD. I know this works, because the CD-ROM will "occasionally" mount correctly by hand (although it usually gives me a lot of errors when I browse the file system for more than a minute). Here's the kind of errors I'm getting: catsreach[]: mount /dev/sd3a /stuff (do I need other flags here?) Disk Label: NEXTSTEP_3.1 Disk Capacity 368MB, Device Block 2048 bytes Disk is write-protected after browsing... sd1(3,0): ERROR op:0x2a sd_state:4 scsi_status:0x0 sd1(3,0): sense_key: 0x5 additional sense code: 0x20 SCSI Block in Error = 0 (front porch) ... Anyhow, this is the gist of my problems. I'm pounding my head against the wall trying to figure out what's wrong with my system and getting nowhere.

FILEMERGE!! Lets here it for FILEMERGE! Why are the best NeXT apps demos are currently not supported. Give Mark Wagner a hand for writing this app. Don't worry though, I am sure that dimmed out "Allow merge file editing" selection will be in there soon. But then again, you don't need NS 3.2 to run FM. So, I am not really sure. I noticed new releases of unix utils (tar, sendmail, etc., etc.) but for the most part, these are still outdated. I am sure there is a level of support that needs to be maintained, so I don't let this bother me.

For a brochure or information about specific sessions, please contact DCI at (800) 767-2336. Reference Priority Customer Number: AWCER00 Eric ______________________________________________________ THE SUBJECT IS OBJECTS NEXTSTEP East Coast Developer Conference Sheraton Washington, Washington D.C. January 24 - 26, 1994 The first annual NEXTSTEP East Coast Developer Conference is your opportunity to experience object-oriented computing with NEXTSTEP, the product that Byte magazine has called the most respected piece of software on the planet. The Conference spans three days combining two full days of technical sessions with one day of NEXTSTEP Tutorials. Designed for software developers, information systems management, systems integrators, VAR's, and independent software vendors, this is the premier East Coast event to learn more about object-oriented technology and the development of mission-critical custom applications with NEXTSTEP. This East Coast event is a natural complement to the West Coast Developer Conference, to be held concurrently with NeXTWORLD Expo in June. If objects are in your future, you won't want to miss this important event. We look forward to seeing you. KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Steve Jobs Chairman and CEO NeXT Computer, Inc. Steve Jobs will demonstrate how object-oriented NEXTSTEP can revolutionize the development of mission-critical custom applications today. Paul Strassmann Former Director of Defense Information U.S. Government Paul Strassmann discusses the current transition of software creation, from a hand-crafted art form to a product assembled out of standard components. CONFERENCE SESSIONS The Conferences four tracks focus on both business and technical aspects of NEXTSTEP application development. Each track provides a different perspective on understanding and working with NEXTSTEP. Take a closer look at object kits and distributed objects. Or follow the track designed specifically to give managers an overview of the technical services and development opportunities offered with NEXTSTEP. Another track focuses on hardware platforms, system administration and configuration issues for the systems engineer. To benefit most from the breadth of topics offered at the Conference, we encourage you to review and attend sessions from several tracks. The mid-day break is reserved for informal Birds-of-a-Feather sessions about topics of special interest to developers or to visit with a variety of NEXTSTEP partners showcasing their products and solutions. Developers may reserve a time slot to conduct a Birds-of-a-Feather session of their choice by sending e-mail to bof@next.com with information about the topic and moderator. GENERAL SESSIONS The general sessions are in-depth looks at broad, important programming topics debugging and performance tuning. These will be opportunities to learn skills that will immediately affect your development efforts and your results. The Zen of Debugging Julie Zelenski, Lecturer, Stanford University and Developer Support Engineer, NeXT Computer, Inc. This session was clearly the most popular and talked-about session from the 1993 Developer Conference. Julie shares her bag of tricks and hints for debugging in the NEXTSTEP development environment. This is the place to come to fill out your repertoire of debugging methods. Useful and little used features of GDB are exposed, an example of how to inspect the stack frame is shown, and a rundown of the runtime system is made, along with discussions of many other topics. You will definitely learn new techniques in this challenging and extremely informative session. Getting More Speed Out of Your Application Trey Matteson, Manager, Application Kit Group, NeXT Computer, Inc. This session discusses a wide range of methods for measuring and improving the performance of your application. Topics include memory allocation strategies, code reordering, Window Server memory usage, drawing speed, reducing launch times, and implications of NEXTSTEP's expanding hardware base. NEXTSTEP TUTORIALS The Conference opens with a day of optional tutorials to help attendees prepare for the Conference sessions. Attendees new to NEXTSTEP will want to take the one day introduction to the user and developer systems, covered in the NEXTSTEP Immersion track. Others who have already done some NEXTSTEP development might be interested in learning more about a different area of the system. Sessions in the second track, NEXTSTEP Developer, provide a chance to get a head start on two popular subjects Object-Oriented Design and the Database Kit. All tutorials are instructed by NeXT Training staff and are in lecture format. HANDS-ON WITH NEXTSTEP If you're new to NEXTSTEP, this is your chance to learn the basics. You can sign up to spend some time with an expert on the subject of your choice. Visit NeXT's hospitality suite and meet with NeXT's training staff who will provide instruction (one-on-one) for both end users and developers. User tutorials are scheduled throughout the two days of the Conference to introduce new users to NEXTSTEP and to provide guidance on navigating the workspace, working with applications, and using NEXTSTEP features. Developer tutorials provide two learning opportunities: hands-on instruction in boot camp issues as well as one-on-one time with a NeXT expert on specific development topics.

The precise status is, however, a secret; details will be revealed when the terms of the bet are fufilled (either on January 1 if I win, or earlier if I lose). NeXT is aware of the bet. However, notifying Jobs or any other special effort to send copies out prematurely would ruin the entire point. It's not a bet as to whether NeXT can expedite shipment to a small set of vocal individuals. However, to be honest, the bet was fundamentally unfair (against NeXT) to begin with. The announcement was that shipping would commence in November. That is a truly terrible time to start shipping. First Veteran's Day, then Thanksgiving, then the entire xmas/New Year's holiday come together to ruin any schedules. It was madness to imply, as NeXT did, that everyone would receive their 3.2 software promptly in November. It would have been madness even if NeXT had its act together in terms of product registration (and postings on the net imply that NeXT does not). A more sensible statement would have been that ``shipment starts in November and will continue into 94Q1''. NeXT regularly makes promises that it cannot keep, and gets defensive when called on them. In many cases, *no* vendor could keep such promises. A major shipment such as 3.2 properly takes *months*. It is better to be more modest in what you promise. -- Mark --

In the meantime, on the 6th I called NeXT to find out where my package was. I got that STUPID, ANNOYING voice mail from order management saying they would get back to me. I called again on the 8th, and twice on the ninth. They have yet to get back to me, and every time I get a real person, they say only order management can do anythin. I guess I will have to wait till it settles itself out. I can't fault UPS, and faulting the US PO does no good. I _hate_ the way I have been ignored by order management, but I suppose they have been busy with every other wiennie wanting their OS.

I left a message on Monday, and they got back to me today. The person was very polite, and I'm now back on track to getting my developer upgrade. I've dealt with NeXT order management several times and have never had an unpleasant experience with them. Sure, I wish their service was more prompt on this matter, but they are probably quite overwhelmed right now. Just relax and be patient and do the other things that should have higher priority than upgrading your system. Mike Ashley

It's spooky. It's doing what you might call "daily maintenance" and you're lucky it does it at 4am.

It's spooky. It's the "4 AM" shuffle. Your machine is telling you it's time to stop working and go to sleep! ;-) Seriously, the machine is running the /usr/adm/daily script (via cron), which does some housekeeping functions like trimming log files and searching every drive to remove stale .nfs files.

Nope, this has always been done (since at least NS 2.0), but it normally happens so late at night that not many people notice.

How can the floppy be full when all the files >are 0bytes long???? I am running 3.2 now, but I had the same problem under >3.1. Mac files have three components to them: the "data fork", the "resource fork" and the directory information. The data fork is an unstructured byte stream, the resource fork is a structured byte stream. The directory information contains information that every Mac file has (such as "file type" and "file creator") NEXTSTEP only shows you the data fork, although there is a hidden name for the resource fork if you want to access it (I forget what it is). Applications typically are almost all resource fork, so they tend to have exceedingly small, often 0, sizes since NEXTSTEP sizes are the sizes of the data fork only. The reasonining of only showing the data fork is that the resource fork structure is not anything that NEXTSTEP knows how to deal with, so it's just ignored. This has the unpleasant side-effect of not being able to copy a file from a f.loppy to NEXTSTEP and to another floppy without losing information. --Cliff ctm@ardi.com

This version of Geomview runs on Silicon Graphics IRIS workstations running IRIX 4.x, NeXT workstations, and 486 PCs running NeXTStep 3.x. The distribution includes source code and compiled binaries for these architectures. Geomview is available via anonymous ftp on the Internet from host geom.umn.edu (IP address 128.101.25.35). It's in the subdirectory `pub/software/geomview'. Get the file README in that directory for details. The main distribution files are: geomview-sgi.tar.Z: Compiled binaries for SGI workstations. geomview-next.tar: Compiled binaries for NeXTStep 3.x systems. geomview-src.tar.Z: Source code. We recommend that you get one of the compiled binary distributions unless you specifically want to look at the source code. Geomview is also available via World Wide Web; our URL is "http://freeabel.geom.umn.edu/". This release contains many bug fixes and several new features and external modules. Another addition is a comprehensive user's manual. We are working on a version of Geomview for generic X windows; it should become available within the next few months. Geomview has been developed in the research environment of the Geometry Center where there is an emphasis on visualization of mathematical concepts. It can be used as a standalone viewer for static objects or as a display engine for other programs which produce dynamically changing geometry. Geomview was described in the ``Computers and Mathematics'' column of the October 1993 issue of the Notices of the American Mathematical Society. A brief overview of its capabilities is appended to the bottom of this message. The Geometry Center is an NSF-funded research center based at the University of Minnesota. Its mission is to support, develop, and promote the computation and visualization of geometric structures. The Geometry Center's official name is the "National Science and Technology Research Center for Computation and Visualization of Geometric Structures". We are very interested in getting feedback from people who use Geomview, so please let us hear from you! Send correspondence via email to software@geom.umn.edu, or via regular mail to Software Development Group Geometry Center 1300 South 2nd Street, Suite 500 Minneapolis, MN 55454 USA Thank you! The Geometry Center Software Development Group ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Overview of Geomview ******************** Geomview's main purpose is to display objects whose geometry is given, allowing interactive control over details such as point of view, speed of movement, appearance of surfaces and lines, and so on. Geomview can handle any number of objects and allows both separate and collective control over them. The simplest way to use Geomview is as a standalone viewer to see and manipulate objects. It can display objects described in a variety of file formats. It comes with a wide variety of example objects, and you can create your own objects. You can also use Geomview to handle the display of data coming from another program that is running simultaneously. As the other program changes the data, the Geomview image reflects the changes. Programs that generate objects and use Geomview to display them are called *external modules*. External modules can control almost all aspects of Geomview. The idea here is that many aspects of the display and interaction parts of geometry software are independent of the geometric content and can be collected together in a single piece of software that can be used in a wide variety of situations. The author of the external module can then concentrate on implementing the desired algorithms and leave the display aspects to Geomview. Geomview comes with a collection of sample external modules, and this manual describes how to write your own. Geomview represents the current state of an ongoing effort at the Geometry Center to provide interactive geometry software that is particularly appropriate for mathematics research and education. In particular, Geomview can display things in hyperbolic and spherical space as well as Euclidean space. Geomview allows multiple independently controllable objects and cameras. It provides interactive control for motion, appearances (including lighting, shading, and materials), picking on an object, edge or vertex level, snapshots in SGI image file or Renderman RIB format, and adding or deleting objects is provided through direct mouse manipulation, control panels, and keyboard shortcuts. Geomview supports the following simple data types: polyhedra with shared vertices (.off), quadrilaterals, rectangular meshes, vectors, and Bezier surface patches of arbitrary degree including rational patches. Object hierarchies can be constructed with lists of objects and instances of object(s) transformed by one or many 4x4 matrices. Arbitrary portions of changing hierarchies may be transmitted by creating named references. Geomview can display Mathematica graphics output.

I need to pull some stuff from the net. Since I'm not currently hooked up, I dial in with my modem, under dos.. NS telecomm programs are a wee bit too much, and the transfer rate is pathetic.. Here's the problem: 1) I ftp things from orst, test them (gunzip/uncompress/tar/ etc..) and everything is peachy. 2) I download them to my machine (after changing the file names to conform to 8.3), using zmodem (sz). No errors. 3) I boot up NS, and transfer them from my dos partition to my home directory under NS; I rename them to their original names. They are no longer complete/ unadulterated... I get all sorts of interesting errors ranging from 'unexpected end of file' to 'invalid compression method' when I try to uncompress them. This is obviously a side effect of the transfer, but I can't for the life of me see where the problem is creeping in. I realize this isn't very much information, but I'm looking for help anyway... by the way, to add to the confusion, kermit seemed to somehow transfer files "better" than zmodem; they're still broken, but at least they uncompress.. - Andrew Houghton (ah0i@andrew.cmu.edu)

(heck, it's got nothing better to do) -> search the hard disk(s) for core files and erase them (assuming they are older than x days) if you dont make use of core files. -> run 'crack' for a while to check if users passwords are guessable. -> back up important files to floptical, etc. any other ideas?

It isn't at all disingenious. It *is* a real problem that you lose the NS-3.1 developer stuff if you install NS-3.2 user (and you have not received your copy of NS-3.2 developer). It means that receiving the user portion, without the developer, is utterly useless to you. That is a real problem.

It would really suck if I had to run SoftPC just to run the DOS version (nothing against SoftPC, but it would a lot better to have the Unix version.) I have tried several times to compile it myself, but the Makefile does not work for Intel. It compiles, but it will not generate a key-pair. It explodes. There's some problem with the bit-order difference between the Motorola and Intel processors, I think (I really don't know.) All my efforts to tinker with the Makefile have been unsuccessful to date. If you have it working, would you please share your secret? Thanks! RoR! -- ror@netcom.com ~RoR-Alucard~

Everything works like a charm under DOS/MS Windows, but when I switch to NEXTSTEP, it sounds like a NASA transmission from Mars (90% static, 10% sound).

Keywords: text adventures interactive fiction unnkulian unventure games [FYI: I post this approximately once a month.] New this time: - New release: The Horror of Rylvania! ftp.gmd.de: if-archive/games/adventions/*/rylvania.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVENTIONS' Unnkulian Unventure Series Adventure Games for the 90's "Unnkulia Zero hits the bullseye!" That's what Computer Gaming World had to say about our latest Unnkulian Unventure in their December issue. So if you're looking for top-quality interactive fiction comparable to 1980's commercial offerings, check out the Unnkulian Unventure series, available from an archive site near you! In _Unnkulian Underworld: The Unknown Unventure_ you play the part of Kuulest's slave, and must recover the Orb of Studosity from the evil Unnkulians. Kuulest, the old geezebag, has died and left you with nothing to go on but a cryptic message about saving the planet. You'll encounter amazing Acme products, the infamous Guardian, those witty creatures known as Drolls, a giant beaver, and even the Dread Unnkulian Warrior. <Gasp!> In _Unnkulian Unventure II: The Secret of Acme_ your adventure continues as you try to create some good press for yourself -- wouldn't want to fade into anonymous obscurity, now would you? Along the way, you'll find the answers to these compelling questions, and more: o What happened to the Unnkulians? o Why are Acme products so bad? o What is this cheez stuff, really? Plus, you'll get to explore Dawg Rock, a Duhdist Retreat, Acme's clandestine prototypes laboratory, and even pay a visit to Acme HQ. In _Unnkulia One-Half: The Salesman Triumphant_, you'll play the role of a down-and-out Acme salesman, forced to work out of the Golden Dragon Inn, dangerously near Dread Unnkulia. Will you accumulate enough loot in this frightful backwater berg to turn your fortunes in your favor? And, in _Unnkulia Zero: The Search for Amanda_, will you, the Valley King's most trusted warrior, rescue his Lady Amanda from the gruesome clutches of the evil Unnkulians? The Unnkulian Unventures have already gotten rave reviews from numerous adventure game connoisseurs around the world, so why not give them a try? Other ADVENTIONS Games The Horror of Rylvania ---------------------- "The Horror of Rylvania" is true gothic horror in an interactive fiction setting. A radical departure from the light-hearted Unnkulian series, "Horror" is not for the faint-at-heart. What you expected would be a fun outing in scenic Rylvania turns into a gruesome nightmare, with *you* playing the starring role. Find out what it's like to be alternately the source and challenger of evil in the tiny Eastern European province. Test your very moral fiber as you decide to damn yourself and save others -- or vice versa. "The Horror of Rylvania" will grip you like no interactive fiction ever has before. Colossal Cave Revisited ----------------------- "Colossal Cave Revisted" is a remake of the first major adventure game ever written: Colossal Cave, otherwise known as "Adventure." The original Adventure was written in FORTRAN by Willie Crowther and Don Woods, and had only a simple two word command parser. Its descriptions were so vivid, however, that it captivated a generation of computer enthusiasts and quickly became part of the "hacker lore." ADVENTIONS' implementation of this classic features the same excellent full sentence parser our other games use, and comes with complete source code. For those new to interactive fiction, "Colossal Cave Revisited" is a must-have. Colossal Cave Revisited is free, and comes with complete source code.

The big thing is the .nfs file cleanup, which happens if your hostname is not localhost (It searches through the entire filesystem for such beasties).

There are two things which should be useful: 1: Things in /usr/adm/daily (or weekly, or monthly) such as the cleaning of core files. Things that should take a few minutes or so (by searching through the filesystem). 2: Backing up files. There would be a good market for a retrospect-like interface for NeXT backups (using tar, of course). A specific time sounds good. 3: More intensive things (such as the gzip suggestion) which may take longer, and really should be a (very low priority) daemon, which runs at such a low priority that it only really does things when the machine is unloaded. As for password cracking, since this is very intensive, it also might be run as a very low priority background process, that just continually cycles through /etc/passwd. -- Nick Weaver| If I could draw like the artist, |nweaver@soda.berkeley.edu I would sit, and draw things that could never be.

Comp.Sys.Next.Announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. Comp.Sys.Next.Bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. Comp.Sys.Next.Hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi.

Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. Comp.Sys.Next.Misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! Comp.Sys.Next.Programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. Comp.Sys.Next.Software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. Comp.Sys.Next.Sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups ------------------ Comp.Soft-Sys.Nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. Comp.Lang.Objective-C Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. Comp.Object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original Comp.Sys.Next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups. Getting the Newsgroups without getting News ------------------------------------------- Thanks to Michael Ross at antigone.com, the main NEXTSTEP groups are now available as a mailing list digest as well. next-nextstep-d next-advocacy-d next-announce-d next-bugs-d next-hardware-d next-marketplace-d next-misc-d next-programmer-d next-software-d next-sysadmin-d (For a full description, send mail saying LISTS to <digestif@antigone.com>).

This system allows you to request online technical documents, drivers, and other software, which are then sent to you automatically. You can request documents by fax or Internet electronic mail, or you can transfer them by anonymous ftp. NeXTanswers is an automated retrieval system. Requests sent to it are answered electronically, and are not read or handled by a human being. NeXTanswers does not answer your questions or forward your requests. USING NEXTANSWERS BY E-MAIL To use NeXTanswers by Internet e-mail, send requests to NeXTanswers@next.com. Files are sent as NeXTmail attachments by default; you can request they be sent as ASCII text files instead. To request a file, include that file's ID number in the Subject line or the body of the message. You can request several files in a single message. You can also include commands in the Subject line or the body of the message. These commands affect the way that files you request are sent: ASCII causes the requested files to be sent as ASCII text SPLIT splits large files into 95KB chunks, using the MIME Message/Partial specification These commands return information about the NeXTanswers system: HELP returns this help file INDEX returns the list of all available files INDEX BY DATE returns the list of files, sorted newest to oldest SEARCH keywords lists all files that contain all the keywords you list (ignoring capitalization) For example, a message with the following Subject line requests three files: Subject: 2101 2234 1109 A message with this body requests the same three files be sent as ASCII text files: 2101 2234 1109 ascii This message requests two lists of files, one for each search: Subject: SEARCH Dell SCSI SEARCH NetInfo domain NeXTanswers will reply to the address in your From: line. To use a different address either set your Reply-To: line, or use the NeXTanswers command REPLY-TO <your-address> If you have any problem with the system or suggestions for improvement, please send mail to NeXTanswers-request@NeXT.com. USING NEXTANSWERS BY FAX To use NeXTanswers by fax, call (415) 780-3990 from a touch-tone phone and follow the instructions. You'll be asked for your fax number, a number to identify your fax (like your phone extension or office number), and the ID numbers of the files you want. You can also request a list of available files. When you finish entering the file numbers, end the call and the files will be faxed to you. If you have problems using this fax system, please call Technical Support at 1-800-848-6398. You cannot use the fax system outside the U.S & Canada. USING NEXTANSWERS BY ANONYMOUS FTP To use NeXTanswers by Internet anonymous FTP, connect to FTP.NEXT.COM and read the help file pub/NeXTanswers/README. If you have problems using this, please send mail to NeXTanswers-request@NeXT.com. Written by: Eric P.

I don't even know where to start looking. First try to nidump the database by using nidump -r / / If you can do this, you at least have something to be modified by niutil.

For some projects I've begun keeping rather lengthy mail aliases, which I add to regularly. I started out just using the "Private Groups" feature of NeXTmail, but often find I want to mail to everyone on the list when I'm out of town or logged in as another user, and thus want to invoke the group from the command line and/or have it available system wide. No problem! I think. I'll just niload the .mailaliases file, and then will write a cron job to do it regularly. But I cannot get it to to work, grr.... In fact, even the following does not work for reasons I cannot fathom: feynman:1# niload aliases . mosaic:tlm@ameslab.gov usage: niload [-v] [-d] [-p] [-t] <format> <domain> <format> must be one of the following: aliases bootparams bootptab exports fstab group hosts networks passwd printcap protocols rpc services Uuuuuhhhh, excuse me but isn't aliases on the list above? I update my hosts file this way regularly, so it works for that. I *know* how to do it from NetInfoManager, but I want to be able to update it from the command line, and also to run the cron job. Can anyone tell me (A) what I'm doing wrong, or (B) failing that, another, non-NIM, way to get my .mailaliases file into the netinfo database? Thanks in advance --- Tom ---------------- Dr. Thomas L.

I uploaded an executable of Mosaic 2.1 for X to cs.orst.edu a few hours ago. It works under coXist in 8-bit, 16-bit and "Default" mode, so it may work for your configuration. Good luck. Here's the README file: This is a compilation of Mosaic 2.1 with a few minor changes described below. Thanks to Gary Ritchie for a couple of fixes. This binary will run on Co-Xist in the 8-bit pseudo mode. I am told that it works with other mono X implemenations on the NeXT, but some of the color implementations have difficulties.

Back in 2.1 'find' had the very useful option 'find name' which would search through a database at break-neck speed (compared with find / -name name -print) I could not get it to work in 3.0 and now grep on a plain list, which is much slower.

Here are just as few of the highlights of the presentations and discussions, with notes on OpenStep at the end. Presentations: - Tailor: awesome App. Get it to remind yourself of why Display PostScript is the greatest thing since ASCII. A must if you have people send you raw PostScript files that need to be munged. Read the reviews for details. - Emerald Image: the Big Brother of image processing tools. Not so much a photo processing tool but a scientific tool for manipulating medical, satellite, or other technical images. Works beautifully, quickly, and smoothly even on massive high-resolution images with multiple channels. A must for anyone who works with such items. Available for $495 in Jan '94. - Intel Pro GX: Another slick demo by Tim Finnegan of Workstation 2000, a NeXTSTEP hardware VAR in LA. He showed off the beautiful new Sony 17SE monitor. Can do 1120x832x16 (color) or 1280x1024x8 (grey) with the ATI Ultra Pro Rev 6 [not yet available in any stores]. As nicely integerated (and faster) than the original stations (except for no DSP). Notes: - If you don't have your 3.2 yet, check to make sure NeXT has gotten your registration. They've lost or misplaced several mailed in and phoned in ones.. - NeXTWorld Expo is June 20-23, 1994 in San Francisco (presumably Moscone). - HP PDO's are out the door and shipping, as has been announced elsewhere. While the price may be steep compared to our (Intel-based) NeXTSTEP expectations, one consultant said his HP owners were amazed how cheap it was (at $10K) for what they were getting. OpenStep: Walt Duflock, our program director gave a nice summary of the historical context and motivation for OpenStep. Siamak Farah, NeXT's District Sales Manager for the SouthWest (LA to Las Vegas to New Mexico), was also on hand and willing to answer questions. The following are based on my memories and may not accurately reflect all of their statements. The OpenStep API will be published in June 1994 and will based on the "OS-idependant" portions of NeXTSTEP 3.2. Siamak pointed out that this would be "OpenStep Rev 1", and that other revisions (such as the much belabored TeXT object) would follow, just as they have for X. The fact that is a standard now just means that they will have to maintain backward compatibility of source [a first for NeXT :-]. He also pointed out that NeXTSTEP is the only serious contender for an object standard. The competitors (Cairo and Taligent) don't really exist; the fact that NeXTSTEP has gone through two revisions means that real-world usage has stripped away most of the deadwood, leaving a "lean, mean" core to build upon. The OpenStep API will be given away freely. This means that anyone can write to it, and (if they pass an OMG-administered test suite) call themselves OpenStep. However (as with PostScript circa 1985, the oft-invoked analogy), they expect virtually everyone to license (for good money!) the implementation from NeXT. The only exception would be "GNUStep", which has already been started by Keith Mason and Paul Kunz. So far they only have a bare AppKit (GnappKit?), but they hope to do the full thing. The main difficult would be Distributed Objects (possibly because of the Mach dependencies). The API covers all the code the programmer will write, as well as the format for archiving objects (TypedStreams and nibs). It includes everything the PDO system includes: - GNU Objective-C compiler and debugger - Objective-C runtime - Distributed Object support - Port and nameserver support for DOs - the Common Classes (Object, List, etc.) plus - The AppKit - DBKit - Display PostScript [as an INTERFACE; the implentor could use X/DPS, DPS/NX, or whatever] - The WorkSpace [API, for drag and drop, file access, "open -a", etc.] - All the bundled Apps (Edit, Mail, etc.) [Since their APIs are accessible as well] It is still unclear whether "OS-independant" covers things like DriverKit, Netware Support, Mach-isms like threads and LKSs, or even requiring UNIX to be underneath (anything beyond the ANSI C library). Siamak thought DriverKit would be in there, but couldn't be sure. From what I've seen, it may not even have been decided yet, and Sun and NeXT employees may have very different perspectives... The User Interface itself, plus development tools, are not stricly speaking part of OpenStep (although apparently the NeXTSTEP "look-and-feel" due to DPS will be). Afterall, the OpenStep API is for programmers, not for users. However, since most implementations will be licensed directly from NeXT, they will pick up the other pieces as well. Sun has licensed IB, PB, and the other development tools. They will almost certainly build OpenStep on top of their existing license of X/DPS, but that should be invisible to most of us. There are rumours Sun will build their own FileViewer rather than license NeXT's. It is not known how or whether they will provide facilities for Mach ports, threads, etc. Siamak pointed out that OpenStep will be THE environment for Solaris. Therefore, since Solaris has announced a PowerPC port (which NeXT hasn't yet), OS/Solaris may be the first (only?) way to get NeXTified on PPC. SunSoft and the rest of Sun are said to be very cooperative with NeXT. Siamak could not confrim any other rumours about NeXT alliances; he claimed that several painful leaks just prior to the HP announcement have resulted in NeXT clamping down on information; NeXT employees knew the Sun deal was in the works, but were not apprised of the details until it was publicly released. PDOs for Solaris are expected to come out in March or April. NS/SPARC is, I think, late 1994. OS/Solaris, due to all the disentangling necessary, is not expected until 1995. Everyone was very upbeat, and looking forward to even greater things in the upcoming months. I'll be home for the next three weeks, with spotty modem access at best, so I'll see you in January.

I am the sysadmin here so the 3.2 upgrades are supposed to be shipped to me. A professor here has a NeXTstation and an Intel box for which she got NeXTstep User-Developer 3.1 and the 3.1 Academic Bundle, respectively. These packages were registered by phone in the professor's name at her HOME address. A call to NeXT has determined that her NeXTstep software is now registered in MY name! Okay. That's not too too bad. At least we're in the same city :-). So, what I should be getting is: 2 Motorola 3.2 User 1 Intel 3.2 User 3 3.2 Developer What have I gotten so far, you ask? I'll tell you: 1 Motorola 3.2 User 1 Intel 3.2 User 1 3.2 Developer BTW, these were all shipped in one box. That box arrived on the same day as three other boxes from NeXT. These boxes contained the correct upgrades for the right people (two with User & Developer and one with just User). Go figure. In the course of explaining all of this to someone at NeXT, I learned that the registration for 3.1 was contracted out to a company called UCA. They (supposedly) do the data entry for the registrations (both by phone and by the registration cards) and supply that information (?) to NeXT. Sigh.

Inside Macintosh Volume IV (most of it) and Volume VI (System 7 additions). Inside Macitosh is readily available from bookstores with largish computer sections. Now that I think about it, they reorganized the Inside Macintosh series, so you'll probably have to look to figure out which books document the filesystem--it should be obvious. If you just want to read floppies, it's trivial. Even writing floppies isn't too hard if you're already familiar with B-trees. Some information in IMIV is inaccurate, and not all the information you need is present, but you can figure out most fields by experimentation. The Disk Editor associated with "Norton Utilities" for the Mac comes in handy when checking your work. >What about the process for writing and having one's >own filesystem type under NeXTStep? As far as I know, NeXT doesn't want people doing that. I asked about it a long time ago, so that we could support Mac formatted floppies/hard drives. We were reading and writing them before NS 3.0.

First time, I got the answering machine, so I left a message. I called the next day again, and luckily got a real person, so I gave her the AEN numbers for 3.1 Developer CD's. I got another call back 4 days later, and I had to give the AEN numbers again. What's going on? I am sure NeXT or its subcontractor doesn't like to be flooded with calls, but they invited this disaster. Isn't order tracking like this really "mission critical" for companies. Campanies like FedEx and UPS even advertise how well and promptly they can tell you where their packages are. NeXT situation seems almost like a perfect counter-example FedEx/UPS can use in their ads. NeXT should automate this process so we can register our licenses and user infomation and also review and change it ourselves via the net. Just look at the distibuted object app called Software.app written by Dmitri Linde (dmitri@cco.caltech.edu). NeXT should get something like that for keeping track of users with some authentication. Also, they should also operate an E-mail based password dispenser similar to that used by Wolfram for Mathematica registration, for people with less than full Internet connection. With all the money NeXT is wasting taking and returning calls from users, they could have contracted one of NS consultants/freelancers to write all these apps for them, if not developing it internally. Contract out the job to Dmitri Linde. What a shame, that they give us the great tools to develop apps, but apparently they are not using the tools themselves. It's not too late for next upgrade time. Please do it by then, and I want to see *Registration.app* on the next CD I receive from them. P.S.

I'm not all that familiar with DOS/Windoze stupid pet tricks. You can mount the Dos paritition as D: but not C: (you have to use Soft PC's version). Unforunately many install programs have configure things to look at C: (if installed under DOS). They don't run well or at all on D: without serious hacking or reinstalling. This creates serious hassles for those of us that want to switch back and forth between booting dos and next.

We had a RightBrain ad all ready to go that ended up never getting run that had some of the usual trademark acknowledgements in the fine print (or "mouse type", as they call it in the bidness). It had about three or four sentences like "PostScript is a registered trademark of Adobe Systems, Incorporated," and then the final sentence said, "Cute mouse type is a trademark of Lighthouse Design".

I have no problem with the machine automounting the CD; in fact, I quite like the feature.

Firstly, your identity will not be distributed as part of the recorded database in any way (if you wish to be acknowledged in the credits this will be kept separate from the actual recordings). Secondly, this is *not* a profit-making venture: the results are to be used for speech recognition research. Researchers in the field are rather dependent on large databases to help them understand speech perception and to train speech recognisers. Most databases tend to be collected in "clean-room" conditions, i.e. carefully controlled with as little background noise as possible. The real world is rather different(!), and, as some of you may know, speech recognition systems tend not to do so well in the "adverse conditions" in the average office... We wish to collect a database of words spoken in low-fi, "uncontrolled" environments in order to help us appreciate what systems will be faced with in the real world, and provide a suitable corpus for our experiments. We hope that others too may be interested in this database, and may use it to improve their understanding, and the performance of their recognition systems, so it will be made freely available to anybody wishing to use it. Please feel free to ask me any further questions. Thank you for your attention -- I look forward to hearing from you!

This company shall remain nameless, to avoid any semblance of advertising. The current systems offered by the company are machines originally intended for the DOS/Windows market, but they've been optimized for NEXTSTEP by choosing the right peripherals, cache size, BIOS settings, etc. The company is currently puting together a new product that is specifically designed for NEXTSTEP, from scratch, and would be interested in your views concerning the following issues. 1. Do you have a preference for size: should the main case be a slimline, a larger AT-size, or a mini-tower? 2. Should the case be black; if this is an option, would you be willing to pay an "upgrade fee" (about $50) for a black system? 3. Should the system have integrated speakers for sound? [A current option (a dark-grey-to-black AT-size case) has two speakers inside the front part of the case (left and right sides) with a small internal amplifier (connects right to the motherboard or to a sound card).] Is this a desireable feature, not really necessary but okay, or not desired, etc.? 4. Do you have a preference for an ISA or an EISA motherboard (to complement the VESA and/or PCI slots)? 5. This is not a question. Please add any comments you would like. Please respond to me (gpmenos@phoenix.princeton.edu) and I will forward your e-mail to company for their review. Your names will not be used in a later effort to sell you anything (this company does not sell direct, anyway). Thanks for any responses, Phil Menos gpmenos@phoenix.princeton.edu -- G.

Nothing I have read here makes me much more cosy about sound support for my system. I am currently using system beeps through the PC speaker (no sound board) and I find it a bit dull. A few questions: 1) Next whined that the PAS 16/NSFIP problem was partly hardware. Various hardware changes have occured with PAS since June. Have these been for the better relative to the NeXT/Adaptec/PAS problems? 2) MediaVision introduced the Pro Audio Studio. Is this usable with NS/FIP 3.1? Is there an upgraded driver for it? 3) Have drivers for any other sound boards been released which would work with 3.1? I'm not wedded to MediaVision, but its the only support distributed with my 3.1 ROM.

I chose them based on another posting on the net sometime ago, and also because of the unhurried and friendly attitude from the salesperson and the receptionist. In addition, the salesperson, Tom Schaffer, did not try to exaggerate the access speed of the drive (in contrast to someone from another place who shaved off a millisecond or two, :-) ). In fact, Tom suggested that it was probably not worth my spending more money on another drive that was more expensive. I ended up ordering a Seagate ST11200N 1.2 GB, which is what I originally wanted to buy. There was a problem when I received the disk, just before Thanksgiving, since the mounting bracket (for the cube) was missing. When I called with a rather upset tone, Tom Schaffer was calm and assured me that he would ship the bracket to arrive the next day. It did, and Tom called to make sure I got it. He also took care of some minor charge problems. Since then he has called me a couple of times to make sure I am happy and the disk drive is working as I had hoped (which it does). I am really happy with the drive and the way my purchase was handled.

Not that anyone cares, but to almost finish this thing off for me, I kept calling NeXT until I got a human. Turns out that they did have me registered for my Black Developer, which conveniently will ship out next week (there seems to be a pattern in these posts about NeXT putting your order in the next shipment if you complain). They had no record of the registration for my academic bundle for Intel, however, so the moral seems to be that it pays to call. This will ship next week too. So in the end, it looks as though I will get the Developer about a month and a half after receiving the User CD. I've already skipped over installing 3.1, maybe I should just keep rolling them over until 3.3 :-). Nevertheless, I'm hooked, and you won't get my NeXT away from me. I know a fair bit about computers for a biologist, and colleagues often ask my advice about computer purchases (many of my friends are currently setting up labs). I've yet to recommend NeXT to any of them, mostly because there is no viable word processor. I hope that I'll be able to push NeXT soon.

This post is made weekly, to help 'point' users to more NEXTSTEP information Topics include: comp.sys.next newsgroups related newsgroups comp.sys.next newsgroups mailing list ftp sites NeXTanswers comp.sys.next.* newsgroups -------------------------- Comp.Sys.Next.Advocacy This is the "why NEXTSTEP is better (or worse) than anything else in the known universe" forum. It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. Comp.Sys.Next.Announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. Comp.Sys.Next.Bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. Comp.Sys.Next.Hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. Comp.Sys.Next.Marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. Comp.Sys.Next.Misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! Comp.Sys.Next.Programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. Comp.Sys.Next.Software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. Comp.Sys.Next.Sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups ------------------ Comp.Soft-Sys.Nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. Comp.Lang.Objective-C Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. Comp.Object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original Comp.Sys.Next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups. Getting the Newsgroups without getting News ------------------------------------------- Thanks to Michael Ross at antigone.com, the main NEXTSTEP groups are now available as a mailing list digest as well. next-nextstep-d next-advocacy-d next-announce-d next-bugs-d next-hardware-d next-marketplace-d next-misc-d next-programmer-d next-software-d next-sysadmin-d (For a full description, send mail saying LISTS to <digestif@antigone.com>).

Hi All, Boy, this intel video stuff is giving me a headache. Id like to get it settled once and for all (wishful thinking :-) and understand why there are certain display limitations on video... Pixels/8bit* 2bit* 12bit* 16bit 24bit* 32bit at: 640 X 480 307200 76800 460800 614400 921600 1228800 800 X 600 480000 120000 720000 960000 1440000 1920000 1024X 768 786432 196608 1179648 1572864 2359296 3145728 1120X 832 931840 232960 1397760 1863680 2795520 3727360 1280X1024 1310720 327680 1966080 2621440 3932160 5242880 1600X1200 1920000 480000 2880000 3840000 5760000 7680000 Now if I understand it correctly, NEXTSTEP supports the video bit depths with the *'s. Which should mean that the following memories would allow maximum display depths/areas of (barring silly math errors ;-) : 2bit* 8bit* 12bit* 24bit* Video RAM: 512k: 1600X1200 800X600 640X480 N/A 1meg: 1600X1200 1120X832 800X600 640X480 2meg: 1600X1200 1600X1200 1280X1024 800X600 4meg: 1600X1200 1600X1200 1600X1200 1280X1024 So what I would like to know is: -Why isn't 1600X1200@12bits or 1280X1024@24bits supported on 4meg VRAM cards like the STB Pegasus? -Why isn't 1600X1200@8bits or 1280X1024@12bits supported on 2meg VRAM cards like the ATI? The ATI can do 1280X1024@8bits, but not 12bits, Why? There seems to be enough memory to do the above maximum resolutions, why cant intel based video cards take advantage of larger screen spaces?

From: windemut@cumbnd.bioc.columbia.edu (Andreas Windemuth) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.advocacy,comp.sys.next.misc Subject: HP Gecko Date: 21 Dec 1993 17:57:32 GMT Organization: Columbia University Distribution: world Message-ID: <2f7dec$rmh@apakabar.cc.columbia.edu> Check out the following WSJ article: By DON CLARK Staff reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL PALO ALTO, Calif. -- Hewlett-Packard Co. has developed an unusual multimedia microchip that can run a Microsoft Corp. operating system and could help widen H-P's appeal to corporate computer buyers . A big selling point is that the chip will run Microsoft's Windows NT, an operating system that some analysts expect to be- come dominant in several years, particu- larly for heavy-duty computing tasks. Un- til now, chips used in H-P's workstations, a class of machines more powerful than personal computers, only ran H-P's own operating system or the Unix system. H-P said it hasn't committed to offering Windows NT, unlike rivals Digital Equip- ment Corp., International Business Ma- chines Corp. and Silicon Graphics Inc. But H-P has been quietly converting Windows NT to run on its chips, in case customers demand it. "If it takes off, we'll be there," said Jan Silverman, H-P's marketing man- ager for advanced technologies. H-P said its new chip, one of several it will announce today, is faster than Intel Corp.'s flagship Pentium chip. It will power a line of H-P workstations, code- named Gecko, that H-P expects to ship next month at starting prices under $4,000. Called the PA-7100LC, the chip also con- tains circuitry to let desktop computers manipulate video and audio data. That capability, which usually requires costly accessory chips, could let corporations use desktop computers for tasks like video conferencing. H-P's latest chip technology will help give its workstations and midrange com- puters a boost against rivals like Digital and Sun Microsystems Inc., analysts said. But without Windows RJT and the software it may inspire, corporations aren't likely to abandon Intel in the lower end of the market, they said. "They are not going to pick up people who have a PC on their desk," said Linley Gwennap, editor of Microprocessor Report, a chip newsletter. "That's the limitation." Intel retains a huge advantage because cornputers using its chips run tens of thousands of programs written for Micro- soft's operating systems. Indeed, H-P, like most of its urorkstation rivals, straddles the fence by also selling PCs that use Intel's chips. H-P will also disclose details of an even faster chip for high-end computers, Mr. Silverman said. Analysts said H-P's statements of direction are important to reassure customers that it plans to keep pace in the costly chip-development busi- ness. "It is saying, 'we are on the same track that the other guys are'." said Andrew Allison, editor of RISC Manage- ment, an industry newsletter. Andreas

Thanks. The company is NASCORP, but you can't talk to them directly unless you happen to have an account with them which I doubt. You generally have to go through your campus bookstore who should have an account number. The NASCORP phone number is 1-800-321-3883.

Just another data point. I have talked to NASCORP (actually, I knew them by another name, but the same phone number), and the lady told me they did not plan to ship until next month. Coincidentally, the free upgrade to NS 3.2 (from 3.1) supposedly ends Dec. 31. One concern: I was given different part numbers than Paul. I was told the NASCORP part number is 9301036460 for the NEXTSTEP 3.2 for Motorola 68K upgrade. I was told the number 9301032333 given above is for NS/FIP. I was given the NeXT part number of N5590 as well. As of yet, I do not know what is in the NS 3.2 for Motorola 68K upgrade. Does it include only the User environment, or does it include both the User CD and the Developer CD? Can I use it to upgrade directly to 3.2 from 3.0 or 2.1, or do we have to buy an intermediate copy (like 3.1)? I have a call into NeXT, but they have yet to call me back. Small little consipracy theory... I notice that NeXT is NOT calling the product simply NS 3.2 for Motorola hardware but instead NS 3.2 for Motorola 68K hardware. Does this mean that NeXT is developing NS for another Motorola CPU (perhaps the PowerPC)??? Any or all answers to the above questions appreciated. Thanks, Todd Heberlein heberlei@cs.ucdavis.edu

When they're lined up along the bottom, I need to keep an icon's width of dead space so I can read the titles. When lined up along the top, I can cover them up almost completely and still find what I need. Moreover, since full size windows are dragged by their title bars, I often have windows that extend past the bottom of the screen, but never past the top. Everything therefore seems to crowd at the bottom of the screen while much of the space along the top goes to waste. Anyone know how to change the default location where miniwindows appear?

Can I use it to upgrade directly to 3.2 > from 3.0 or 2.1, or do we have to buy an intermediate copy (like 3.1)? It is true that the Motorola Acedemic Bundle doesn't ship until Jan 1st. The package includes both the 3.2 User and Developer with an academic liscence for $299 (this is also the list price given to me by NeXT, looks like we don't get a volume discount from NASCORP). The current non-academic upgrade from the NeXT office in Buffalo is close to $700 for a single machine to upgrade to 3.1 and, that's right, that free upgrade offer ends on Dec. 31 and the prices go up from what I understand. Better move fast if you aren't eligible to purchase an academic version. I just got off the phone with our bookstore. The Motorola part number _is_ 9301032333 and the Intel part number (we just got 13 of them yesterday) is 9301023296. The Motorola upgrade can go directly from 3.0 to 3.2, but I don't know anything about upgrading from 2.x. Hope this helps. Paul M.

Last time I phoned him for some information on Motorola's 88100 computer systems (currently running AT&T SYSVR4), he suddenly asked me if NeXTSTEP would be an interesting alternative to SYSV! This would probably be a client-server implementation, as the machines are too powerful for a workstation. Imagine, a NeXTSTEP server and several NeXTSTEP window-terminals... [Well, in that case, I would have had to have Frame and Progress running under NeXTSTEP 88k (currently not the case).] I tried to get more information, but all he could confirm is that someone at Motorola was probing customers - and that he knew of an earlier 88k port by NeXT ...

I have problems (i.e. it does not work) reading photo-cds with the Toshiba-cd-rom drive. Everything else works fine (like installing NS, listening to audio-cds etc.), but when I insert a photo-cd into the drive, NS(FIP!) does not recognize the type (probing for dos, probing for audio ...) and ejects the disk. It is a new Toshiba drive (the one with double speed reading) and it works fine under DOS (provided you installed the right driver). Why can't I read photo-cds under NS? Do I have to install a driver that I don't have? Does it work anywhere else? Any hints? Thanks Boris

After that Sun announcement, now IBM is considering NS as an alternative OS for their PowerPC. That's not just rumours. Several magazines reported that NeXT has an pre-ALPHA NS running on a PowerPC-based machine. They are just waiting for IBM to come to a decision. Apparently Taligent is behind schedule and now, for HP and SUN both work on NeXTStep, IBM fears to be late. Why spend lots of money to develop some- thing you can buy?

The sound would play almost to completion, and then a garbled whine was emitted, and the machine would crash and reboot. It only happened for one file, but it was reproducable. The implication is that certain sound files (for no good reason) will crash the machine when played. It is a remote possibility, but maybe this is an example of the same effect? The NeXT and Sun sound formats are almost identical. Maybe they have a similar bug? (I know, very speculative!) Can you play the same sound files on a Sun with no ill effects? What tool are you using to play the sounds? Did you try "sndplay" from the command-line? If it is reproducable with standard tools, you should probably send the sound file to bugnext, if it isn't too big. -Andrew macrae@pandora.geo.ucalgary.ca or: macrae@geo.ucalgary.ca

Standard sendmail configurations leave mail in /usr/spool/mqueue if they aren't connected to their mailhost, so you could always use that. A later connection and execution of /usr/lib/sendmail -q will transmit the mail. If you really need to send mail a different way, then you can use .forward to send outgoing mail by user to a file, or could implement a program mailer in sendmail.

In the past, I've had problems with printing TrueType outline fonts from my Mac on my NeXT, but I've just ignored the problem by using Type 1 fonts. Now, it's more of a pain to "bypass" this problem so I was hoping if anyone out there has any insights on my problem. Very briefly, the problem comes about if I use a TrueType font on my Mac and when I print it (I use uShare on my NeXT so I print my documents on my Mac via the Chooser/Print... mechanism), the "downloaded" TrueType font comes out with "imperfections." These imperfections are fine lines that appear near each character. They look like parts of the outline path that's supposed to be covered up but doesn't somehow. The problem occurs whether I've used Print to my NeXT printer or Save ps file and manually print my ps file. Here's my system configuration: Mac: IIx, with Radius Rocket 33, 17MB RAM System 7.1 LaserWriter 8.1.1 NeXT: NeXTcube '040, 8MB RAM NeXTstep 2.1 (PostScript Level 1) uShare (w/ Print Spooler) 1.07 Thanks for any tips and/or suggestions Ken -- Kenneth K.F.

Most current NeXT employees own options which I think are non transferable. However, many ex NeXT employees own stock, including myself.

You could try os-bs, either v1.35 with a more simple menu or v2.0 Beta8 with a more comfortable colored menu similiar OS/2 boot manager. Both versions provide a customizable boot menu with a timeout (up to 90 sec.) and the abiltity to automatically set the active partition before booting (this avoids boot problems with some systems). But v2.0 is also able to boot from other drives then the first one and from "logical" partitions inside "Extended partitions", although this doesn't work with NSfIP since it's neither able to start from a second, third, etc. drive nor from logical partitions. Both versions come with a installation program running under DOS, but v2.0 includes more features (like editing system id bytes in the partition tables). And both versions you can find e.g. on ftp.prz.tu-berlin.de under /pub/pc/os-bs. It's os-bs135.exe and osbsBETA.exe. They are self-extracting archives running under DOS. But note, due to some internal assumptions of NS your DOS partition won't be automatically mounted under NS (i.e. doesn't appear in the file viewer) if you're installing v2.0Beta8. This doesn't happen with 1.35 and will be fixed in the next version of os-bs. But with both versions the "Restart into DOS" button of the NS login window will disappear. No big loss to my mind, but this will probably also be fixed in the next version. If you're trying it please read the "README.1ST" files (very important for v2.0Beta8!).

It was created specifically to divert lengthy flame wars from .misc. Comp.Sys.Next.Announce Announcements of general interest to the NeXT community (new products, FTP submissions, user group meetings, commercial announcements etc.) The NEXTSTEP FAQs are posted here monthly as well. This is a moderated newsgroup, meaning that you can't post to it directly. Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. Comp.Sys.Next.Bugs A place to report verifiable bugs in NeXT-supplied software. Material e-mailed to Bug_NeXT@NeXT.COM is not published, so this is a place for the net community find out about problems when they're discovered. This newsgroup has a very poor signal/noise ratio--all too often bozos post stuff here that really belongs someplace else. It rarely makes sense to crosspost between this and other c.s.n.* newsgroups, but individual reports may be germane to certain non-NeXT- specific groups as well. Comp.Sys.Next.Hardware Discussions about NeXT-label hardware and compatible peripherals, and non-NeXT-produced hardware (e.g. Intel) that is compatible with NEXTSTEP. In most cases, questions about Intel hardware are better asked in comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware. Questions about SCSI devices belong in comp.periphs.scsi. This isn't the place to buy or sell used NeXTs--that's what .marketplace is for. Comp.Sys.Next.Marketplace NeXT stuff for sale/wanted. Material posted here must not be crossposted to any other c.s.n.* newsgroup, but may be crossposted to misc.forsale.computers.workstation or appropriate regional newsgroups. Comp.Sys.Next.Misc For stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. Anything you post here by definition doesn't belong anywhere else in c.s.n.*--i.e. no crossposting!!! Comp.Sys.Next.Programmer Questions and discussions of interest to NEXTSTEP programmers. This is primarily a forum for advanced technical material. The NEXTSTEP programmer FAQs are posted here. Generic UNIX questions belong elsewhere (comp.unix.questions), although specific questions about NeXT's implementation or porting issues are appropriate here. Note that there are several other more "horizontal" newsgroups (comp.lang.objective-c, comp.lang.postscript, comp.os.mach, comp.protocols.tcp-ip, etc.) that may also be of interest. Comp.Sys.Next.Software This is a place to talk about [third party] software products that run on NEXTSTEP systems. Comp.Sys.Next.Sysadmin Stuff relating to NeXT system administration issues; in rare cases this will spill over into .programmer or .software. related Newsgroups ------------------ Comp.Soft-Sys.Nextstep Like comp.sys.next.software and comp.sys.next.misc combined. Exists because NeXT is a software-only company now, and comp.soft-sys is for discussion of software systems with scope similar to NEXTSTEP. Comp.Lang.Objective-C Technical talk about the Objective-C language. Implemetations discussed include NeXT, Gnu, Stepstone, etc. Comp.Object Technical talk about OOP in general. Lots of C++ discussion, but NeXT and Objective-C get quite a bit of attention. At times gets almost philosophical about objects, but then again OOP allows one to be a programmer/philosopher. (The original Comp.Sys.Next no longer exists--do not attempt to post to it.) Exception to the crossposting restrictions: announcements of usenet RFDs or CFVs, when made by the news.announce.newgroups moderator, may be simultaneously crossposted to all c.s.n.* newsgroups.

I suspect that you might be a little confused as to where man pages really are; they havwe nothing to do with Librraian, or really even with Terminal.

I am using a Nextstation with 3.2, and Microphone Pro as my modem communications package. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Bruce Patton (bwp@engin.umich.edu)

Since I am often away from my machine when it is working on calculations, just having a UPS connected will not help. (ie. After 5-10 minutes I would again experience a power failure.) What I need is to have NeXTSTEP realize that the power has failed and to shut itself down within the 5-10 minutes. Is such a thing possible? If so, what model of UPS and what Software is required?

Give them reasons to overlook your experience (ie, "I've written this and that and the other thing on the net in the last couple years"). A pet peeve of mine (and many people) in the computer industry is that so many companies say things like "Applicants must have developed and marketted at least one program with multi-million dollar revenues", or "Must have 18 years of Windows NT experience". You know, requirements that would imply that the person was already making an order of magnitude more money running their own company than they would with this new job. I don't know if companies just think they'll be such a joy to work for that we'll bend over backwards to do it, or what. My take on this "problem" in the NeXT market is that too often the people doing the job searching don't know the market. I remember back when I was in school and people would post requests for applicants with requirements like "5 years of NeXT experience". This in 1989-1990. [This "problem" is at least partially to blame for the preponderance of "Hackers in a dorm room/garage" type companies in the NeXT market. If you can make more than %70 of the money on your own that a company is offering, unless you have a real need for the difference it's simply more worthwhile to build equity in _yourself_ instead of in someone else's company. I know that when I had to make the decision to go it on my own, I was greatly influenced by the pittances that people were offering as "competitive salaries".] Later, -- scott hess <scott@nic.gac.edu> <I can handle NeXTMail, but don't like it> Home: 12901 Upton Avenue South, #326 Burnsville, MN 55337 (612) 895-1208 Office: 101 W.

If you print a TeX output, for instance, it feels like 1 or at most 2 pages per min. (Haven't measured tho.) X Ink smudges if you put water on it. I use HPDJ500 with NSTC at home; for light home usage, including plotting, writing letters, papers in tex, drawing figs, it is fine. I am very happy with it. Heavy duty stuff, I use the laser at work. HPDJ family works with NS, but with black hardware, make sure you get a printer that has a SERIAL port. This discludes the HPDJ portable. I believe with NS/FIP, there is no such problem (can use parallel port) so that you can use the portable also. Another option is to use Dots, which is a commercial package ($100 mono, $200 color, at least as of few months ago.) which supports a lot of printers including the CanonBJ series, which are again InkJet printers (360dpi). Last time I checked (in the US), Canon printers were cheaper by around $50, so this is another option.
