Say *.ps are > to be open by Preview.app instead of something else? Fairly FAQ. Each app tells the OS what extensions it will open. If you select the app such as /NextApps/Preview.app and do you will get the Contents inspector which will tell you that Preview.app is set only to register for .ps extensions. If you install another app which handles .ps files, it may or may not set itself as the default for that extention. I'm not 100% sure how that works (try .programmer if you really want to know). Most apps can be 'hacked' to change what extentions they are associated with, which is also an FAQ. The short answer is to use SegHoarker and/or a script I wrote called 'hack-ext' which you can find at http://www.peak.org/~luomat/next/mailserver/hack-ext.sh As always, backup before mucking with anything you care about!

The machines are part of a non-NeXT network. Neither of them is a NetInfo client or server and that's how we want it. Both of them have entries for each other as seen in HostManager. The cube is exporting a directory via NFSManager and the slab is importing it. Both machines have been rebooted since making those changes. When the slab tries to look in /Net, it does see a directory for the cube. Clicking on that results in an error message on the console on the slab.

RELEASE NOTES This is an early, experimental Beta. Minimal testing has been done on Intel hardware running 4.2 User with a SupraSonic modem. Building the source distribution requires NS 3.2/3.3 Developer. It should work with NS 3.2->4.2 User. This release is self contained and will not affect prior releases of GateKeeper or PPP if you install it in a different folder. In this release GateKeeper and the integrated PPP daemon communicate in a peer to peer fashion as necessary via Mach RPC (prior releases parsed the PPP log stream). This allows GateKeeper to dynamically alter the behavior of the running PPP daemon. The current Beta only implements a subset of the planned RPC so many things require the user to stop and start the PPP daemon (from GK) in order for changes to take effect. Central to the operation of this release is "Dial on demand" which I have enabled in the PPP daemon. In fact this release has no "Connect" button beyond it's Manual Dial mechanism. This allows GateKeeper and the PPP daemon to provide the functionality of previous releases while operating independently of each other. For example, if GateKeeper is restarted while a PPP daemon is active it will contact the daemon and resume the peer to peer relationship. The integrated PPP package is based on the NeXT 2.3.1 release of the free PPP as ported by Steve Perkins and others. Significant changes include: GateKeeper.app Architecture has been extensively reworked to support the new model of operation. Preferences now consists of dynamically loaded bundles. PostPPP script execution upon termination of GK and daemon. PPP daemon Dial on demand has been enabled. Mach RPC and communications server thread added. chat Slight mod to overcome cheese ball NeXT POSIX support. Capture and reporting of connection speed via Mach RPC. PPP LKS No changes in this Beta. Testing was done using the PPP2.2 LKS (more stable on my dev system) while this package contains the 2.3.1 LKS. DISTRIBUTION FILES GateKeeper.3.0.Beta.2.s.tar.gz contains a source distribution GateKeeper.3.0.Beta.2.NI.b.tar.gz contains a binary distribution URL's ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/internet/ppp/GateKeeper/GateKeeper.3.0.Beta.2.s.tar gz ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/internet/ppp/GateKeeper/GateKeeper.3.0.Beta.2.NI.b. tar.gz ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-muenchen.de/pub/comp/platforms/next/Communication/apps/GateKeepe r.3.0.Beta.2.s.tar.gz ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-muenchen.de/pub/comp/platforms/next/Communication/apps/GateKeepe r.3.0.Beta.2.NI.b.tar.gz SUPPORT My ability to provide support is very limited. Should you require assistance I will expect you to have the current stable release (2.1) running on your system. During the Beta period I will provide support without charge to those testing the Beta. Upon final release the following will apply: Comments and bug reports are always welcome, but if you would like support the following applies: 1. If you are a non-commercial user and are doing some type of FSF GNU or other freeware work for the UNIX community let me know and we'll call it even. The same is true if you provide software free to single non-commercial users or if you have contributed to the creation of GateKeeper. 2. If you would like E-mail support please register for it by sending in a one time registration fee of $20 USD. 3. If you would like telephone support please contact me via E-mail for details. CURRENT RELEASE The current Beta release of GateKeeper is version 3.0 Beta 2 The current stable release of GateKeeper is version 2.1 FEATURES -- Dial on demand. -- Manual Dial and login to a ppp provider without a script. -- Compound document format for storing information necessary to access an Internet Service Provider. -- GUI document editor (partially implemented) -- Toolbar control -- Idle timeout with sound warning. -- Execute and check exit status of a preLink and a preUnLink script prior to the respective operation. -- displays pppStats -- Redial. -- App Icon session timer. -- Tri-state animated icon provides status feedback. -- Captures and displays connection information BUGS If you are using the GK 2.1 stable release you must switch the PPP log from a FIFO to a file in GK 2.1's preferences. If you want old Gate docs to report connection speed you must add a line to your pppup file like: "REPORT CARRIER". See the enclosed example doc. The documentation does not reflect this Beta release. German localization has been removed from this Beta. If running a local nameserver you should dump it's cache after each PPP session.

The problem is that Omniweb 2.0 and up requires the 3.3 Foundation libraries. A patch for 3.2 is available at NeXTanswers, answer no.2117, as a compressed file. Unfortunately, that still leaves me stuck. My slab is off-line and my only connection to the net is through a Windows NT box. Which means I'm limited in what I can get to my NeXT by the 1.4MB "bandwidth" of a DOS HD floppy. Alas, the 3.3 foundation libraries patch comes it at 1.7MB. So close, and yet so far.... (I tried splitting up the file over two floppies and then reconstituting it, but I end up with a corrupt file.) I'm trying alternative means to obtain the necessary files. If anyone would be willing to volunteer to download the patch onto a NeXT ED floppy and snail-mail it to me, I would be grateful. I can send you an ED disk if you don't have one (or pay for yours or replace it if you do) and pay for postage. I know, it seems medieval, but sometimes one's got to do what one's got to do.

OmniWeb doesn't work on plain vanilla 3.2; it requires the FoundationKit library, which came with 3.3. Fortunately, NeXT has provided the FoundationKit library free with WebObjects for 3.0/3.1/3.2 owners, so you can install it yourself. See http://enterprise.apple.com/NeXTanswers/HTMLFiles/2116.htmld/2116.html You'll also want a more advanced version of OmniWeb than 2.0.1 (the current best version is 2.5, the latest but not-as-stable version is 2.7b6). See http://www.omnigroup.com/Software/OmniWeb/2/Download.html You can also still download Omniweb 1.x if you want (it doesn't need the FoundationKit).

There were *major* changes between 3.0 and 3.2. The patch WILL work for 3.2 since 3.3 is mainly just a patch of 3.2 with some expansions. 3.2 and 3.1 were very different, and 3.2 and 3.0 are worlds apart. I've seen 3.2 selling for $50.

A comprehensive list is available on Stepwise. Stepwise OpenStep/Rhapsody Information Server http://www.stepwise.com Stepwise has been serving the OpenStep/NEXTSTEP community since March 1993. Some of the many resources on the site include: OpenStep Third Party Software guide, Developer Directory, Mailing List information, extensive listing of FTP and WWW sites related to OpenStep and NEXTSTEP, OpenStep related Frequently Asked Questions. NeXT Software Archives @ Peak.org http://www.peak.org/next http://www.peak.org/openstep PEAK is the premier NeXTStep/OpenStep FTP site in North America. NeXT Software Archives @ Peak.org http://www.peak.org/next http://www.peak.org/openstep PEAK is the premier NeXTStep/OpenStep FTP site in North America. This is the World Wide Web interace to the FTP site. Apple Enterprise Software Group (formerly NeXT Computer, Inc.) http://www.next.com Here is where you'll find the NeXTanswers archive, with information on OpenStep installation, drivers and software patches. Apple Computer's 'Prelude to Rhapsody' Self Support Site http://devworld.apple.com/dev/prelude.html This site has been constructed to help you help yourself to learn as much as possible about the foundation for Rhapsody, today's OPENSTEP. The site provides an informal collection of pointers, references, and starting points for developers who are using the Prelude to Rhapsody bundle, distributed at this year's Worldwide Developer Conference. OpenStep/NEXTSTEP/Rhapsody Related Usenet 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.) 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. Messages posted to announce should NOT be posted or crossposted to any other comp.sys.next groups. 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. 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 next-advocacy next-announce next-bugs next-hardware next-marketplace next-misc next-programmer next-software next-sysadmin object lang-objective-c (For a full description, send mail to listserv@antigone.com). The subscription syntax is essentially the same as Majordomo's. To subscribe, send a message to *-request@lists.best.com saying: subscribe where * is the name of the list e.g. next-programmer-request@lists.best.com Major OpenStep/NEXTSTEP FTP sites ================================= ftp://ftp.next.peak.org The main site for North American submissions formerly ftp.cs.orst.edu ftp://ftp.peanuts.org: (Peanuts) Located in Germany. Comprehensive archive site. Very well maintained. ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/next NeGeN/NiNe (NEXTSTEP Gebruikers Nederland/NeXTSTEP in the Netherlands) ftp://cube.sm.dsi.unimi.it (Italian NEXTSTEP User Group) ftp://ftp.nmr.embl-heidelberg.de/pub/next eduStep ftp://ftp.next.com: See below ftp.next.com and NextAnswers@next.com ===================================== [from the document ftp://ftp.next.com/pub/NeXTanswers/1000_Help] Welcome to the NeXTanswers information retrieval system! 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, read them on the world-wide web, transfer them by anonymous ftp, or download them from the BBS. 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 REPLY-TO address sets the e-mail address NeXTanswers uses 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 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 VIA THE WORLD-WIDE WEB To use NeXTanswers via the Internet World-Wide Web connect to NeXT's web server at URL http://www.next.com. 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. USING NEXTANSWERS BY MODEM To use NeXTanswers via modem call the NeXTanswers BBS at (415) 780-2965. Log in as the user "guest", and enter the Files section. From there you can download NeXTanswers documents. FOR MORE HELP... If you need technical support for NEXTSTEP beyond the information available from NeXTanswers, call the Support Hotline at 1-800-955-NeXT (outside the U.S. call +1-415-424-8500) to speak to a NEXTSTEP Technical Support Technician. If your site has a NeXT support contract, your site's support contact must make this call to the hotline. Otherwise, hotline support is on a pay-per-call basis. Thanks for using NeXTanswers! _________________________________________________________________ Written by: Eric P.

Is there a command line version of the Installer? Where is it documented? I've figured out how they are basically put together and how and when to use /NextAdmin/Installer.app/installer_bigtar vs installer_tar. I still would like to get some info on the other features of the Installer to make sure I didn't miss anything. Right now, it seems to me that most of the installation can be emulated by running the preinstall script, untar'ing with one of the installer_tar* utils, then running the postinstall script. It looks like I can also get by with minimal parsing of the *.info file. Nonetheless, it looks like this will not quite be the same, as using the GUI. (Still the issue of the Receipts, etc...)

I'm not really clear what kind of dual-boot you are talking about. OmniWeb 3.x requires OpenStep 4.2 (or a hack to use it with 4.1). Stone Design's newest Create requires Rhapsody or OpenStep. I'm not sure why you'd want to dual boot OS 4.2 and NS 3.3 unless you are talking about development stuff.

I could swear that I saw a port of a C64 emulator somewhere, but I can't remember the name, author, or even which UNIX emulator was the basis. In fact, I'm fuzzy as to whether the emulator was a C64 emulator or an Amiga emulator...it may well have been the latter! Of course, since I can't remember any details, it may be a figment of my imagination, or perhaps I'm confusing it with some other emulator, like the ZX one. But I have seen emulators that run on NEXTSTEP for the following machines/platforms: Platform NEXTSTEP product/app name -------- ------------------------- Game Boy VGB Apple ][ a2 or zaniWok Sinclair Spectrum NextZX IBM PC SoftPC * Macintosh Executor * * commercial products There are UNIX emulators for a lot of others, but I haven't had time to port any of them. I did look into an Atari 2600 emulator, but I've got too much else on my plate at the moment to do anything with it. Heck, I'd like a few moments to polish off zaniWok. It had/has a lot of potential... unfortunately, it is far from complete at this point. a2 was at least usable...but not super fast. (Admittedly, we did get to where an '040 could run programs faster than the real thing...though the video would tend to lag a little. Page flipping is slower when you have to do a complete blit every time...) > >> --- Play an assortment of MOD files and types.

I don't remember if it did real-time, though. It may convert into /tmp and then play that for all I know. Someone over in Germany wrote it. (Tomi Engel? Frank Seigert?

The problem is that too many of the .mov's on the net use the newer codecs that NEXTIME doesn't support. And there's no .avi support, even though NEXTIME claims the .avi extension.

I have OpenStep/Mach 4.1. Thanks. I am still using NS3.3 and don't know about OS4.2, but I would hope that NeXT kept support for the .addresses files (in ~/Library/Addresses/...). I was always very happy with it. Can you please confirm that that still exists under OS4.2? A useful extension of it is Phone.app from HASC.

The problem, as many people e-mailed me, is that Omniweb 2.x and higher requires 3.3 Foundation libraries. A patch for 3.2 is available at NeXTanswers, answer no.2117, as a compressed file. It is also available at ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/utils/patches/FoundationUserPatch.t ar.gz as a gzip file, which makes it 1.2MB instead of the 1.6MB of the compressed file (This allowed me to resolve my "bandwidth" problem, which is that my only way of getting the patch to my slab was via a DOS floppy.) Anyway, I want to thank again everyone who e-mailed me with suggestions and information. I particularly want to thank Ken at Omniweb for the time he took to help me try to resolve the problem.

Is there a way to: --- Emulate a C-64. I know, old hat, but you can get a C-64 emulator for anything else.. --- Emulate a Macintosh all in software. (I'm tempted to try to do something with the source for the BeBox Mac emulator, by the author of ShapeShifter; but I'm no programmer by a long shot.) --- Play an assortment of MOD files and types. I've never seen an app that will run on my hardware that will let me play Amiga chip tunes, Protracker and Soundtracker mods, .xm's, et cetera. My Amiga 1200 020/14 could handle all sorts of formats nicely with DeliTracker. --- Play .mp3 files without converting them. The A1200's 020 could manage it by playing at lower quality, and the faster 680x0 class machines get better results; and the Atari Falcon manages to play mpeg level 2 audio only using 3% of the 030's time by using the 56000 DSP. --- Play .mov or .avi files without installing Xwindow - or getting the semi- mythical NeXTTime? --- And could someone tell me just what I need to do to get SOME version of X working? I've tried most of the packages and they either do nothing, crash my machine hard, or (McGill X) create the X screen, but garbled. --- And if anyone could suggest a way to attatch a parallel printer to my NeXT - I know that some sort of interface will be needed - I'd be most appreciative. My system is a ColorTurbo non-ADB, 80 megs RAM, 400 meg HD, user 3.3/developer 3.1 (I know, not a good combination, but the best I've been able to do so far.) -Aaron (exceedinly curious NeXT user) #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!uni-erlangen.de!news-nue1.dfn.de!wuff.mayn.de!cpk-news-hub1.bbnplanet.com!news.bbnplanet.com!news-peer.sprintlink.net!news-pull.sprintlink.net!news-in-east.sprintlink.net!news.sprintlink.net!Sprint!194.25.2.138!newsfeed00.btx.dtag.de!news.btx.dtag.de!not-for-mail From: icol.animo@t-online.de (Alexander Dietz) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.sysadmin,comp.sys.next.software Subject: Re: ScanOmatic Date: 7 Jan 1998 16:01:01 GMT Organization: T-Online Lines: 13 Message-ID: <6908rt$alk$3@news02.btx.dtag.de> References: <68tl54$o7m@news.acns.nwu.edu> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Sender: 06664919210-0001@t-online.de X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.02 [en] (WinNT; I) To: daj@nwu.edu Xref: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de comp.sys.next.sysadmin:29381 comp.sys.next.software:32113 ...ask IPC at WWW.IPC.DE daj@nwu.edu wrote: > I have ScanOmatic by IPC and I'm considering purchasing a HP5S Sanjet Scanner can anyone confirm if it works with ScanOmatic? > > David A.

I have often heard how timing is everything. Posting this question an hour before Steve Jobs' keynote speech at the MACWORLD EXPO where surely Rhapsody/Premier(?) will be the rage on everyone's lips, may mean that I shouldn't expect an answer to my question anytime soon or at all. Nevertheless, I better ask while it is on my mind. I am interested in learning if anyone know whether the last version of WordPerfect published in like March 1994 with the ADB support will run under OPENSTEP 4.2 on black hardware? I have a NEXTstation Turbo Color. I find what I hear about new versions of OmniWeb (3.x), Stone's software, and the like to be compelling reasons to upgrade or even try to set-up the dual-boot thingy with NS 3.3. It would also be nice not to have to use the Windows environment to connect to the Internet in order to learn (because of the different shock and cu-seeme and etc. formats) what is going on with Apple (NeXT). However, I have most of my files in WordPerfect and find that even with its limitations, I can do most of what I would like without a problem. I know that WordPerfect isn't about to be able to run on Rhapsody/Premier I prefer to receive E-mail directly. But you can post a reply and send E-mail both as I will be trying to follow what's going on in S.F. Bay too this week as I work. Sincerely, Brandy Please Don't Spam Me!

A comprehensive list is available on Stepwise. Stepwise OpenStep/Rhapsody Information Server http://www.stepwise.com Stepwise has been serving the OpenStep/NEXTSTEP community since March 1993. Some of the many resources on the site include: OpenStep Third Party Software guide, Developer Directory, Mailing List information, extensive listing of FTP and WWW sites related to OpenStep and NEXTSTEP, OpenStep related Frequently Asked Questions. NeXT Software Archives @ Peak.org http://www.peak.org/next http://www.peak.org/openstep PEAK is the premier NeXTStep/OpenStep FTP site in North America. NeXT Software Archives @ Peak.org http://www.peak.org/next http://www.peak.org/openstep PEAK is the premier NeXTStep/OpenStep FTP site in North America. This is the World Wide Web interace to the FTP site. Apple Enterprise Software Group (formerly NeXT Computer, Inc.) http://www.next.com Here is where you'll find the NeXTanswers archive, with information on OpenStep installation, drivers and software patches. Apple Computer's 'Prelude to Rhapsody' Self Support Site http://devworld.apple.com/dev/prelude.html This site has been constructed to help you help yourself to learn as much as possible about the foundation for Rhapsody, today's OPENSTEP. The site provides an informal collection of pointers, references, and starting points for developers who are using the Prelude to Rhapsody bundle, distributed at this year's Worldwide Developer Conference. OpenStep/NEXTSTEP/Rhapsody Related Usenet 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.) 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. Messages posted to announce should NOT be posted or crossposted to any other comp.sys.next groups. 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. 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 next-advocacy next-announce next-bugs next-hardware next-marketplace next-misc next-programmer next-software next-sysadmin object lang-objective-c (For a full description, send mail to listserv@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, read them on the world-wide web, transfer them by anonymous ftp, or download them from the BBS. 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 REPLY-TO address sets the e-mail address NeXTanswers uses 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 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 VIA THE WORLD-WIDE WEB To use NeXTanswers via the Internet World-Wide Web connect to NeXT's web server at URL http://www.next.com. 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. USING NEXTANSWERS BY MODEM To use NeXTanswers via modem call the NeXTanswers BBS at (415) 780-2965.

BTW: If I find such a playsnd, I will release a commandline midi-player and a commandline (Doom-) mus-player for black hardware (WITHOUT midi-hardware). Both work quite fine today, but the generation of 22k Sound takes IMHO too much diskspace. BTW^2: I only speak of black hardware, bacause a midi-player for intel alraedy exist (MMP.app from Frank Siegert) and the mus-player is a really bad hack for black. greets -- Sven Droll __ ______________________________________________________/ / ______ __ sdroll@mathematik.uni-wuerzburg.de / /_/ ___/ please remove the NOSPM from my reply-address /_ _/ _/ =====\_/======= LOGOUT FASCISM! ___________________________________________________________________ NeXT-mail or MIME welcome ;-) #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!rzg.mpg.de!news-mue1.dfn.de!news-nue1.dfn.de!news-lei1.dfn.de!news-ber1.dfn.de!news-fra1.dfn.de!Cabal.CESspool!bofh.vszbr.cz!cpk-news-hub1.bbnplanet.com!news.bbnplanet.com!news-peer.sprintlink.net!news.sprintlink.net!Sprint!newsfeed.nacamar.de!news-hh.maz.net!desire.lavielle.com!news From: Valentino Kyriakides Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.software Subject: Re: OmniWeb 2.7b3 behaves strange?

VERSION: 0.92 beta OS: Openstep for Mach (tested on 4.2 only) (DOES NOT RUN ON NEXTSTEP) PLATFORMS: NeXT, Intel SIZE: 1.8 MB compressed 4.7 MB installed FAT (NeXT, Intel, Sparc) (English & French) 1.53 MB installed for single platform WHERE: ftp://wendy.ucsd.edu/pub/Mark/LogOn_00.92b.m.NIS.tar.gz LogOn is intended for internet users who just want an application that launches and kills PPP which is both simple to install and easy to use. The goal was to provide an app that frees users from having to deal with chat scripts, options files, or pap-secrets files. It is not an application that helps you install PPP or configure PPP, but rather one that (hopefully) shields you from ever having to know the nitty-gritty details of pppd or chat. Using LogOn for the first time is as easy as entering your account name, password and phone number. Afterwards, using LogOn is as simple as saying "I want to connect to Netcom from Home using PPP 2.3" and pressing a button. FEATURES: * Graphic front end to ppp. * Maintains unlimited number of "Accounts": Saves account name, password, server phone number, chat script... Have one for each account you own... * Maintains unlimited number of "Locations": Saves modem initializations, phone prefix/postfix, long distance access codes... Have one for home, one for work, one for school, etc * Maintains unlimited number of "Option" files. (With a GUI, of course!) * To use, just connect a "Server" Location with a "Local" Location and press the LogOn button. * "Autodetect" feature - no chat scripts! * "Autoredial" feature - keeps trying until ppp is active * Launches apps you select automatically when ppp is established * Changes signatures to match your "virtual" location. * Can fetch pop mail for you when ppp is established (You supply a program like popOver) * Can purge mail queue when ppp is established. * Maintains /etc/resolv.conf (if you wish - you can disable this feature). * A clock tracks time on line. * Log Window displays ppp log file (or other you select) * PPP Expert and Novice users - limits access to certain elements of LogOn to experts only. * Users can choose whether to use an external script or LogOn to bring up connection. Likewise to bring down a connection. * Context Help to guide you through the set up process. * Compatable with both pppd 2.2 and pppd 2.3. WHAT'S NEW: Version .92 * Removed pppkill from project. Uses shell script pppdown instead. * New multi-panel Preferences Panel. * Can set time between autoredial attempts. * Dial on startup option * Kill or not kill PPP on shutdown option * If LogOn is killed before it has a chance to restore the filesystem, the next time it is run the user is asked if they wish to restore the filesystem to its previous state. * If PPP is already running when LogOn is launched, it will automatically switch to the connected state. * LogOn files are now readable/writable only by owner. * Passwords in chat scripts are now sent securely - prepended with the /q escape character. * There are now "Send Mail" and "Fetch Mail" menu items. Version .91 * Added French language project (translation by Andre Lalonde ). * BUG FIX: LogOn now properly saves whether not not you want to have it issue the command to fetch your mail. Please download it and give it a try. And, of course, please let me know of any comments or suggestions you might have.

About a year ago, I was running NS3.3 and purchased NXFax along with a Zyxel modem. I was using the latest serial port drivers, but kept getting the following message in my console after installing nxfax: *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device repeatedly, and ad infinitum until I removed the nxfax driver. Since I was only using a single serial port, and on a whim, I tried using the older serial port driver (which supported just one port). To my surprise and relief, this worked, and I had a fax modem since then,... Until yesterday, when I "Upgraded" to Openstep 4.2. Now the only serial port driver options are the newer versions, and I can't get them to work. I am getting the *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device *** : open failed No such device message once again. I have tried a config with a driver for com1 and for com2, using the default address and irq settings, and I have removed com2 so that there was a single serial driver in the config. Nothing works. Any suggestions? Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Ken Case of OmniGroup suggests applying the NS3.3 patches. This error message indicates that you are using the older Foundation set. The newer one can be found at: ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/utils/patches/FoundationUserPatch.tar.gz (This and other helpful OmniWeb tidbits are available from the OmniWeb mailing list... see www.omnigroup.com for more info) > And sometimes (not always): > > Jan 11 15:04:28 timebandit netmsgserver[22]: netname_main.msg_send fails, kr = -102. > Jan 11 15:04:28 timebandit netmsgserver[22]: netname_main.port_type fails, kr = 4." This has something to do with the messaging OmniWeb sends out to see if there are other, unlicensed copies of OmniWeb running on the same LAN at the same time.

If not, then thats the problem. The thing with W95 wiping out the 3.3 boot manager, can be solved in a different way (than to install W95 first). After having installed W95 and you seemingly only can boot into W95, use fdisk to set the active partition to the 3.3 partition. Now you'll boot into 3.3. In 3.3 you use the disk utility to "install" the 3.3 boot manager again. And you are back to "normal".

I've just set up my NeXT Cube running NS 3.2 to connect to the Internet over PPP from home. I installed the Foundation library upgrade and OmniWeb 2, which is running OK. So, I'm looking for a nice GUI MIME-compatible Mailer which will directly POP3 my mail from my ISP, as well as a nice GUI THREADED newsreader which will, of course, get the news over NNTP. I would have thought that these both would be available, but after checking the FTP sites and FAQ, I can't find them. The best I could see where TIN and PINE w/ POP3, both non-GUI. Is using the POP3 app together with the standard NeXT mail app the best way to go with mail? Am I going to have to revert to using the character-based interface of TIN if I want a threaded newsreader? Many thanks in advance for any help. Since my news setup is new and tentative, any response to my e-mail would be appreciated. Please use ken_worthy at hotmail dot com (Put the address together to mail--I'm trying to avoid spam).

A comprehensive list is available on Stepwise. Stepwise OpenStep/Rhapsody Information Server http://www.stepwise.com Stepwise has been serving the OpenStep/NEXTSTEP community since March 1993. Some of the many resources on the site include: OpenStep Third Party Software guide, Developer Directory, Mailing List information, extensive listing of FTP and WWW sites related to OpenStep and NEXTSTEP, OpenStep related Frequently Asked Questions. NeXT Software Archives @ Peak.org http://www.peak.org/next http://www.peak.org/openstep PEAK is the premier NeXTStep/OpenStep FTP site in North America. NeXT Software Archives @ Peak.org http://www.peak.org/next http://www.peak.org/openstep PEAK is the premier NeXTStep/OpenStep FTP site in North America. This is the World Wide Web interace to the FTP site. Apple Enterprise Software Group (formerly NeXT Computer, Inc.) http://www.next.com Here is where you'll find the NeXTanswers archive, with information on OpenStep installation, drivers and software patches. Apple Computer's 'Prelude to Rhapsody' Self Support Site http://devworld.apple.com/dev/prelude.html This site has been constructed to help you help yourself to learn as much as possible about the foundation for Rhapsody, today's OPENSTEP. The site provides an informal collection of pointers, references, and starting points for developers who are using the Prelude to Rhapsody bundle, distributed at this year's Worldwide Developer Conference. OpenStep/NEXTSTEP/Rhapsody Related Usenet 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.) 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. Messages posted to announce should NOT be posted or crossposted to any other comp.sys.next groups. 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. 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 next-advocacy next-announce next-bugs next-hardware next-marketplace next-misc next-programmer next-software next-sysadmin object lang-objective-c (For a full description, send mail to listserv@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, read them on the world-wide web, transfer them by anonymous ftp, or download them from the BBS. 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 REPLY-TO address sets the e-mail address NeXTanswers uses 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 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 VIA THE WORLD-WIDE WEB To use NeXTanswers via the Internet World-Wide Web connect to NeXT's web server at URL http://www.next.com. 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. USING NEXTANSWERS BY MODEM To use NeXTanswers via modem call the NeXTanswers BBS at (415) 780-2965. Log in as the user "guest", and enter the Files section. From there you can download NeXTanswers documents. FOR MORE HELP... If you need technical support for NEXTSTEP beyond the information available from NeXTanswers, call the Support Hotline at 1-800-955-NeXT (outside the U.S. call +1-415-424-8500) to speak to a NEXTSTEP Technical Support Technician.

The strict answer has to be: No. Although I understand, that certain drivers are not different at all (video?) between OS4.x and NS3.3, there certainly are drivers which won't run under any chance and will even render your system unbootable if it are drivers for e.g. the EISA-Bus or the like.

Well, there are times I prefer a GUI tool, but vi works pretty well for little changes. And since I do a lot of work over fairly slow terminal connections, it's nice to have a simple editor. I don't know that I'd learn vi now if I my fingers didn't already know it, but it's a handy tool. And it does a fine job of editting HTML. My husband has commented that it reminds him of going back to nroff days when I hand edit HTML. :-) But for page layout I use PasteUp. And I must say that the OpenStep/ Rhapsody version is better than the last NeXTSTEP version. I don't know if AFS plans to import/export HTML. I think at one time Greg and I discussed the semantics of exporting a PasteUp document to HTML.

Overall I've been very pleased with it, but have been encountering some difficulties, to wit: In complex documents, Adobe Garamond Titling won't embed completely. In certain complex documents, graphics pasted within a path prevent that graphic and others from imaging completely. Certain embedded symbols (multiply, copyright) refuse to embed and are left out of the finished document. I've been converting text to paths for the first and last, and re-working the other graphics, but this has been rather trying.

Since then, my ppp link lasts about five minutes then dies due to "Excessive lack of response to LCP frames" My options file specifies 15 seconds between hits and 3 non responses before shutdown. My question is "Is it necessary to send LCP frames at all? and what negative effect would it have to set the number of missed responses to a higher number, like 5 or 6? I've looked through the man pages but don't seem to find anything on this subject. The ISP tech support is worse than worthless. "LCP What!!?" Never had the problem before their equipment change. I'm using a ZyXel Elite 2864 modem and PPP2.2. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lines: 65 Message-ID: <6a70q7$fp@merkur.on.on-luebeck.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: on177.on-luebeck.de X-Newsreader: Alexandra.app (Version 0.82) SUBMISSION SmartBase 1.0 Beta SmartBase is an ObjectBase for OpenStep ftp.peanuts.org/next/OpenStep/database/application/SmartBase.1.0.Beta.m.I.b.tgz Smartsoft Development is proud to announce the first beta release of SmartBase. SmartBase is an object relational database management system for OpenStep. It's based on NeXT's Enterprise Objects Framework and thus principly could be used with any RDBMS, that's supported by EOF. To overcome the differences in the user- and domainmanagment of the various databases available on the market, SmartBases uses a further database specific adaptor (OB-adapter) realized as a loadable bundle. The current relase of SmartBase only supports OpenBase. Adaptors for PrimeBase, Sybase,... will be available soon. SmartBase is intended to support the development of business applications for OpenStep (Objective-C). The release contains the following: ObjectServer: ============= After creating a connection to the underlying database (OpenBase, PrimeBase, SyBase,...) the ObjectServer process offers its services to client applications via an NSConnection. It is recommended to run this process on the same machine, that is hosting the database to avoid unnecessary LAN traffic. AccountManager: =============== This application is used to create and maintain accounts, groups, domains and access privileges. DomainManager: ============== You use this application to modify the object model of a domain. You can define classes, roles, attributes of various types (BaseType & ClassType) and various categories (Attribute, Reference, History,..). DomainManager automatically modifies the table scheme of the underlying database according to your object model, creates template source code for your objects (Objective-C), acts as a repository for custom object code and for class bundles, allows you to modify a domain model while the domain is in use by other client applications,... OBModler: ========= Same functionality as DomainManager but is independent of the ObjectServer process. It can be used to create obmodels offline, or to support the development of eomodels not intended for SmartBase client applications. Demos: ====== Several demo applications (source) have been included in this release to demonstrate the capabilities of SmartBase. Documentation: ============== A short introduction. SmartBase is built for Intel. You need to have OpenStep 4.2 Mach Developer and EOF 2.1 installed to take full advantage of this product. Moreover you need a RDBMS. This first release only supports OpenBase. See http://www.openbase.com to get a demo version of OpenBase for Mach, before trying to use SmartBase. INSTALLATION Simply untar SmartBase.1.0.Beta.I.tar.gz and install all five packages on your workstation. Read the documentation in /NextLibrary/Documentation/SmartBase for further details. If you encounter any problems or have suggestions regarding the further development of SmartBase, do not hesitate to contact us. We would like to hear from you. For further information, contact: Smartsoft Development Andreas Hoeschler Email: ahoesch@on-luebeck.de Special thanks to Scott Keith from OpenBase Inc. for his kind support!!! #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!isar.de!news.muenchen.roses.de!newsfeed2.ecrc.net!news.mindspring.net!news.maxwell.syr.edu!logbridge.uoregon.edu!hammer.uoregon.edu!nrchh45.rich.nt.com!bcarh3d0.bnr.ca!despams.ocunix.on.ca!cyberspam!not-for-mail Date: 22 Jan 1998 12:17:08 EST X-Original-Path: ...!cs.utexas.edu!news.iag.net!news-spur1.maxwell.syr.edu!news.maxwell.syr.edu!newspeer.monmouth.com!uunet!in3.uu.net!not-for-mail X-Original-From: pc88 Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.software X-Original-Subject: Share modem, ISDN and cable modem 11671 X-Original-Date: 22 Jan 1998 08:18:54 GMT Message-ID: Control: cancel <6a6vde$8t6$1855@news0-alterdial.uu.net> X-No-Archive: Yes From: clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca Sender: pc88 Subject: cmsg cancel <6a6vde$8t6$1855@news0-alterdial.uu.net> Approved: clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca X-Cancelled-By: clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca Lines: 3 EMP/ECP (aka SPAM) cancelled by clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca.

Don't worry, if you use "disk -i /dev/rsd1a", you will nevertheless receive four partitions of about 2 GB.

From a recent post somewhere, I read that it is possible to print to the printer by using Ghostscript. Ghostscript works fine and I am able to generate a .prn file by using the command to give an output file, however, to print directly gives me garbage PS code which gets dumped on paper. The .prn file is valid because I can print from the DOS prompt after rebooting. Is there a way to print directly from ghostscript into my old epson? The eps9high driver works fine for .prn? Are there any special considerations or setup requirements? Thank you in advance for any help.

Huh? How is that for free? You can download the demo and use it... or find someone who has a license and doesn't want it... or email Stone Design and beg your case.

Is there a version that I can use my NeXTime 1.0 version to play this with sound running with my NS 3.3 Black hardware set-up? What a disappointment too after waiting all that time to download these over my telephone line. I did a little searching and see that handling ".AVI" files seems to be one of those missing links for us even though I find this hard to believe for such a robust platform. Similarly, and not that I am very anxious to hear what Ol' Billy boy has to say, but I recently (just last night) downloaded the QuickTime clip from Apple's Web Site and could get it to play the sound either. It gave me the following error message. "Cannot play sound from thinkfastmoredifferent.mov. Sound is not available or requires a missing ima4 decompressor."

However, it came with no docs. It turns out it is set for SCSI ID #1, which is great for a Cube internal, but I have no idea if it is terminated or even which jumpers to set to terminate it. Does anybody know the jumper settings for termination and for SCSI ID? I am running NS 3.3. Anyhow, when I try to run sdform on it, it says the drive is 477 Mb. probably because that was the size of the old inernal drive, but it is wrong. Furthermore, after about five hours, sdform croaks. The examples from NeXTanswers, in particular the famous #1533, shows sdform being run on /dev/rsd1a for a 2.7 Gb Seagate drive and the following message appearing: device=/dev/rsd1a block size = 512 capacity = 2777 MBytes Except for 477 instead of 2777 that is what I get. Why don't I get 8400 MBytes? BTW, scsimodes produces the expected results: SCSI information for /dev/rsd1a Drive type: MICROP 1991-27SC2 512 bytes per sector 171 sectors per track 27 tracks per cylinder 4476 cylinder per volume (including spare cylinders) 6 spare sectors per cylinder 81 alternate tracks per volume 17755613 usable sectors on volume I am on the verge of deciding the drive itself is defective. However, I think it may just be something I am doing wrong. If anybody can offer any useful ideas in the next 24 hours I would be most greatful. ----- Bob Peirce Venetia, PA 412-941-6883 me@venetia.pgh.pa.us [HOME (NeXT)] rbp@investor.pgh.pa.us [OFFICE] #################################################################### From: BYY Newsgroups: comp.os.os2.networking.server,comp.os.os2.networking.misc,comp.os.os2.networking,comp.os.netware.security,comp.software.testing,comp.software.measurement,comp.software.licensing,comp.software.international,comp.sys.next.software,comp.sys.ibm.pc.software,comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.networking,comp.sys.amiga.software.pirate,comp.sys.amiga.software,comp.sys.amiga.networking,comp.sys.acorn.networking,comp.software-eng,comp.software.year-2000,de.comm.software.crosspoint,de.comm.internet.software,cruzio.network,de.admin.news.software,fr.network.internet,fr.network.divers,dsm.network Subject: TELL u where can get the FREE things on the internet Date: Sat, 24 Jan 1998 14:54:04 +0800 Organization: Netvigator Lines: 23 Message-ID: <34C9900C.AF1BD65D@geocities.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: yckam002003.netvigator.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------84C0C86F9D0772DD2F2D6282" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.01 [en] (Win95; I) X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!uni-erlangen.de!irz401!fu-berlin.de!cpk-news-hub1.bbnplanet.com!news.bbnplanet.com!newsfeed.internetmci.com!202.84.255.3!news.hkt.net!news.netvigator.com!usenet Xref: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de comp.os.os2.networking.server:4092 comp.os.os2.networking.misc:27167 comp.os.netware.security:9179 comp.software.testing:19615 comp.software.measurement:2086 comp.software.licensing:2988 comp.software.international:6907 comp.sys.next.software:32255 comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.networking:22339 comp.sys.amiga.software.pirate:190 comp.sys.amiga.software:343 comp.sys.amiga.networking:30105 comp.sys.acorn.networking:17811 comp.software-eng:54234 comp.software.year-2000:30575 de.comm.software.crosspoint:21895 de.admin.news.software:5914 fr.network.internet:12552 fr.network.divers:11272 --------------84C0C86F9D0772DD2F2D6282 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit TELL u where can get the FREE things on the internet Free things! http://byy.grps.net --------------84C0C86F9D0772DD2F2D6282 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit TELL u where can get the FREE things on the internet

I have a BusLogic 958 Ultra-Wide card with a CDU926s on ID 5 : (CD-writer), and an Iomega Jaz 1GB on ID 4. No, it's not the mixing! SCSI and EIDE run for me together just fine at least since NS 3.3 up to (now) OS 4.2. One thing is very important: in the ordering of the bootdrivers (or active drivers, but (E)IDE and SCSI ususally are bootdrivers) in the System.config/*.table (* being Default and/ or Instance0), the SCSI-driver has to precede(!) the (E)IDE-driver. Otherwise an (E)IDE CD-Drive is detected "too early" and gets e.g. the pseudeo-sd0-name and then the SCSI-driver is confused because it thinks its devices are sd0 up to sd(n). First SCSI, then EIDE guarantees, that sd0 to sd(n) are 'real' SCSI devices and ATAPI-devices (CDs) get pseudos sd(n+1) to (well whatever). This was necessary with NS 3.3 and works with OS 4.2 - I never tried to arbitrarily give OS 4.2 the 'wrong' order, so I can't insist that it is necessary for OS 4.x, too, but I assume it is; didn't want to test if my system gets into chaos (again) :-). Although the ordering is/should be vital and necessary it, most probably won't help you with your SCSI bus resets, as these are a problem of either hardware or the driver not properly working with the adapter/ controler card. : : Any thoughts from anybody else as well?

Anyway, I would suggest Opener.app ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/archiveutil/Opener.3.3.N.b.tar.gz FTP that file to the NeXT to your home directory. Launch '/NextApps/Terminal.app' In Terminal.app, type this: gunzip Opener.3.3.N.b.tar.gz && gnutar xvf Opener.3.3.N.b.tar That should leave you with just Opener.app. Put it in the folder /LocalApps and possibly on your dock. Select another .tar.gz (or tar.Z or whatever) file in Workspace and select the menu item 'View' and then the sub-item Update Viewers. In a few seconds you should see the Icon change from the regular edit document to a cooler tar.gz icon. After that you can open all sorts of compressed archives by just double clicking on them from Workspace. Drop me a line if any of this didn't make sense (see address below) > 2.

I'm not clear on what other printers a regular NeXT can use.. perhaps someone else will answer. Usually it requires a commercial product, although there is Ghostscript.

Submissions should be e-mailed to next-announce@digifix.com where the moderator (Scott Anguish) will screen them for suitability. Messages posted to announce should NOT be posted or crossposted to any other comp.sys.next groups. 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. 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 next-advocacy next-announce next-bugs next-hardware next-marketplace next-misc next-programmer next-software next-sysadmin object lang-objective-c (For a full description, send mail to listserv@antigone.com). The subscription syntax is essentially the same as Majordomo's. To subscribe, send a message to *-request@lists.best.com saying: subscribe where * is the name of the list e.g. next-programmer-request@lists.best.com Major OpenStep/NEXTSTEP FTP sites ================================= ftp://ftp.next.peak.org The main site for North American submissions formerly ftp.cs.orst.edu ftp://ftp.peanuts.org: (Peanuts) Located in Germany. Comprehensive archive site. Very well maintained. ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/next NeGeN/NiNe (NEXTSTEP Gebruikers Nederland/NeXTSTEP in the Netherlands) ftp://cube.sm.dsi.unimi.it (Italian NEXTSTEP User Group) ftp://ftp.nmr.embl-heidelberg.de/pub/next eduStep ftp://ftp.next.com: See below ftp.next.com and NextAnswers@next.com ===================================== [from the document ftp://ftp.next.com/pub/NeXTanswers/1000_Help] Welcome to the NeXTanswers information retrieval system! 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, read them on the world-wide web, transfer them by anonymous ftp, or download them from the BBS. 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 REPLY-TO address sets the e-mail address NeXTanswers uses 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 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 VIA THE WORLD-WIDE WEB To use NeXTanswers via the Internet World-Wide Web connect to NeXT's web server at URL http://www.next.com.

After the CD essentials installation, I drop into single user mode and edit /private/Drivers/i386/System.config/Default.table, and take out things like BusMouse, PS2Mouse (I have a serial mouse), PCIC, PCMCIA, and most importantly Intel82x0 something bridge PCI chip driver. I don't have this, and I think this one is the culprit, though BusMouse crashes my friend's Pentium laptop. Then it works like a charm. Only problem now is the SCSI driver... when installed it BTC timeouts infinitely and keeps resetting the bus over and over and over.....All other OS's work, so it can't be the operating system, nor the CPU, and its most likely an oversight on NeXT's part, when mixing SCSI and IDE. I think the IDE CD-ROM taking sc0 may have something to do with it... might not like a mixed bus... I have a BusLogic 958 Ultra-Wide card with a CDU926s on ID 5 (CD-writer), and an Iomega Jaz 1GB on ID 4. Any thoughts from anybody else as well?

This seems very Catch 22 to me. There is a "Default" configuration which you first boot into, which operates (I'm guessing here) at some very low low resolution (640x480) or something like it which all video cards support, and therefore you can boot that first time with those really low settings (I think you get about 4-5 items on your dock with that resolution!) and then set the proper configs for your video card.

Well you can get up to 4.2 for Intel. It might be easier to find than 3.3 actually, and if you don't care about development, etc I would definitely go for 4.2 as you will have more software than 3.3. Also, Intel installation should be easier with 4.2 than 3.3 (more drivers and more recent drivers) > NS retail used to cost a couple grand. Well that is still true for the developer tools.

This seems very Catch 22 to me. The initial part of the installation process uses the BIOS to present a simple text interface. The installed software, after the initial phase of installation is complete, is configured to use a dumb VGA display driver. When the initial installation of the base system is first booted, the user is asked to select the proper display driver and other peripherals through a GUI application called Configure.app. Following this, the user can select additional packages to be installed from the CD through the installation GUI.

Does anyone know if the TALUS company still exists? Or what their email address is? Or where to get a full copy? scan v0.91b: This seems to be the most promising candidate, BUT: in its current version it does not detect the UC840! However, the author, John Woodward (woodward@onramp.net), wrote in the help file he might release the source. Unfortunately, so far he did not respond to my emails. John, are you reading this?? Does anyone know of a working email for John? Or where else to get the source so that I can hack it for the UC840?? ScanOmatic.app: I got a timed demo which works great, however, I think the price (twice as much as the scanner) is too much for me. eXTRASCAN.app: Does not suport the UC840. ScanMaker.app (V0.2): Does not suport the UC840. Or is there a newer version?? scan300c (scanner.0.7_sd): does not support the UC840 This is all that i could find. Which driver did I not test? Does someone want to sell me a (used, but no longer needed) diver license? Make me an offer! If possible, please answer by email to: heller@altoetting-online.de If there is demand, I will summarize to the net. Looking forward to replies!

There do not appear to be any fonts in /NextLibrary/Fonts that allow me to type Hiragana or Katakana characters. I've tried to convert widely available Japanese fonts (the two that come with NT Japanese, and cyberbit) to Type 42 fonts using ttf2font, but ttf2font seg faults upon the attempt. Anyone have any ideas? Whenever I type anything into an OPENSTEP text object, I get garbage since I don't have a font that supports Japanese glyphs.

I wasn't going to spend a lot of time on it, personally, since it is still early beta and there's nothing I need which 1.2.5 doesn't have (and compiling problems may go away in later versions). 1.2.5 has been through more security & general debugging, so I feel better using it. There's not a nice .pkg for it, basically because making .pkg files is a bit of a pain IMO There's a general compilation here: ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/internet/www/apache/apache.1.2.5.NIHS.bs.tar.gz ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/apps/internet/www/apache/apache.1.2.5.README but you'll have to install it manually.

YFtp should only do that if you double-click on the file. If you select the file and press 'GET' it should just download it. OmniWeb, by default, passes the file off to Workspace. If there is no app (such as Opener.app) assigned to the extension (such as .tar.gz or .zip) then the Default application (usually Edit.app) will open it. You can override this behavior by holding down the command key before clicking the file you want to download. If you'd like to see the default changed, or the default made set-able via preferences, drop an email to OmniGroup.... probably to 'omniweb3@omnigroup.com' > BTW Is/Was Nextime a commercial product?

I tried the PStill demo, and it works very, very well. I have placed an order. I have a problem that I suspect others might face, and would welcome any suggestions as to migration paths or other solutions. I am a university professor, and have several volumes of course notes that I have built up using OpenWrite as a word processor (along with Create and EquationBuilder to generate the necessary diagrams and equations). I would like to be able to import these into some other word processor, since Lighthouse was purchased and subsequently (seemingly) abandoned by Sun. As others have experienced, it is impossible to get any response out of Sun to questions concerning Lighthouse software. Short of migrating to another WP, I would at least like to be able to begin to make my course notes available on my web page. Unfortuantely, even with its .html export capability, OW makes this difficult, as .eps file display capabilities are not standard on most web browsers (OmniWeb excepted). Even when they are, displaying these files on a remote server requires editing each .html file to identify the appropriate (new) path on the server, and moving all of the graphics files to that directory. I use a lot of graphics and equations in my notes; there will typically be about 5 per page. Since I have about 700 pages of these notes in perhaps 50 seperate files, all of this file management and path editing is far from trivial. I now have one workable solution. Print a file to Save (in .ps format), and use PStill to generate .pdfs. This isn't a very elegant solution, and it requires that I continue to maintain OW to make minor editorial changes, but it is a solution. I hate to say this, but after 8 years of being a NeXT user (I replaced a black and white with the 11th NeXTDimension off the production line, according to the serial number), there are many days now when I regret ever having seen this operating system. It is now truly a love-hate relationship. If only Sun Microsystems would release the OW document format! I just know the folks AFS would be happy to provide a document importer. How are others dealing with the Openwrite dilemma? Constructive suggestions would be much appreciated.

The proliferation and creation of frameworks based on common C libraries, like libjpeg, libz, etc... I've already seen at least 2-3 different frameworks in existence already for libjpeg (OmniJPEG, MiscSupport (misckit), Jpeg (already on peak)), libz (OmniZlib, Z (on peak?)), and others (I, personally, have built my own framework versions of these too). Shouldn't there be an effort to build and deliver dylibs/frameworks in a cooperative effort, that will lead to uniting all these different threads of framework creation? Developers should agree on naming conventions, versioning (major AND minor versioning), and maintaining responsibilities. My initial guess that this should/could be handled within the MiscKit project, as I'm sure the MiscKit folks certainly aren't busy enough already (-;.

True enough, but the MiscKit _would_ be an ideal place for what you are proposing, since we more or less are already set up for this. Assuming that people are willing to submit their proposed frameworks to the kit, I'd certainly be willing to include them. > Heck, they've already got MiscSupport.framework (as of v2.0.5) that > essentially contains libjpeg, libpng, libz in one (which I don't think is a > good idea). Well, things do need to be restructured a little bit, but as long as we are keeping these various things in their own subprojects, I'm not sure that I agree with splitting things up into lots of little frameworks. Because frameworks are shared libraries, I don't see too many benefits from splitting them up into zillions of teeny frameworks, other than logical organization. With libraries, splitting them finely allowed creation of smaller executables, of course. In the framework case, we've already got logical divisions with the subprojects. The one big problem that I've had with supporting all the libraries in the NEXTSTEP MiscKit is that when people are too lazy to read the docs and figure out which libs to add to their projects. My e-mail box says there are a LOT of lazy people out there. If there is only one Misc lib to match up with extensions to each of the Apple kits (Foundation, App, EOF, WOF, etc.) then it is really easy for users to figure out which libs to include. (I realize that this is a weak argument for what I propose, since it really rather selfish in that the only person it significantly helps is me... :-) ) Since the next MiscKit release is going to have a total revamping of the project structure--and I am working on it now--if there are specific things you would like to see done differently, please TELL ME NOW! If you have a good idea (or a good argument supporting your idea) you'll probably see it implemented in whole or in part. [BTW, there was supposed to be a release in the Nov-Dec 1997 time frame. I've had some severe hardware difficulties which have prevented that. Now that the hardware seems to settling in and getting stable again, I'm working on thetting the next releases pushed out as fast as I can. I apologize to everyone for the enexpected delays!] Follow ups on how the MiscKit should be organized really belong on the MiscKit mailing lists...but I'll keep an eye open here, too, of course. -- Later, -Don Yacktman don@misckit.com My home page #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!uni-erlangen.de!cs.tu-berlin.de!marcel From: marcel@cs.tu-berlin.de (Marcel Weiher) Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.software Subject: Re: .ps to PDF converter?

Most of the programs didn't work well, didn't look decent or wouldn't let me do basic things without having to get a 17" monitor. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions? Other than getting a 17" monitor ;-? Honestly I use RBrowser and YFtp and find them both adequate for 98% of the things I need to do.

Now it seems that I can't get it to work with 3.3 - is not recognized or so, it works only with the older versions of the 2490. I need to have 3.3 aside of 4.2 because 3.3 is the only thing that (with tricks) supports multisession PCD. I looked at NeXTanswers and what I found there didn't work. Does anyone know of a driver that would work on a Pentium-Pro and 2490UW? Or do I need to replace some other drivers as well if I want to use it? If you witnessed the past 4 days, you'd understand why I hate PCs :-) Thanks for any hints, - Stan --- Stan Jirman Caffeine Software NeXTmail and MIME: stanj@_caffeineSoft.com (please remove the _ from the domain name to reply) #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!rzg.mpg.de!news-mue1.dfn.de!news-stu1.dfn.de!news-kar1.dfn.de!newsfeed.nacamar.de!cpk-news-hub1.bbnplanet.com!cam-news-feed2.bbnplanet.com!news.bbnplanet.com!cambridge-news.cygnus.com!cygnus.com!kithrup.com!cyberspam!not-for-mail From: sef@kithrup.com Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.misc,comp.sys.next.programmer,comp.sys.next.software Subject: cmsg cancel <6c05ug$du0$270@tor-nn1.netcom.ca> Date: 13 Feb 1998 02:34:52 GMT Control: cancel <6c05ug$du0$270@tor-nn1.netcom.ca> Message-ID: Sender: rsobpfwu@WinDate.com X-Cancelled-By: sef@kithrup.com Approved: sef@kithrup.com Lines: 1 Spam cancelled by sef@kithrup.com #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!news.muc.de!news.space.net!fu-berlin.de!cpk-news-hub1.bbnplanet.com!news.bbnplanet.com!News.Toronto.iSTAR.net!news.istar.net!digifix!not-for-mail From: "Scott Anguish" Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.software Subject: Re: PRI Inspectors Date: Mon, 9 Feb 1998 13:32:13 -0500 Organization: Digital Fix Development Lines: 17 Message-ID: <6bniir$qnl$1@news.digifix.com> References: <6am08e$l3n$9@ironhorse.plsys.co.uk> NNTP-Posting-Host: pavilion.digifix.com X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.2106.4 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 mmalcolm crawford wrote in message <6am08e$l3n$9@ironhorse.plsys.co.uk>... >In Francois UGUEN wrote: >> I'm looking for PRI Inspectors (PRI Compression >> Inspector, PRI Image Inspector and PRI Sound Inspector). >> >PRI? > Come on mmalc, you're an Old Timer, you should remember Pinnacle Research Inc.

NeXTstation w/ NS 3.0 Hi, I have a NeXTstation mono/non-turbo that will no longer boot... the story is below, please email me if you can help. Thanks in advance!! I've been using this machine off and on for the past few months and recently, I began installing all sorts of applications. Anyway, I added a few to the rc.local file to allow the machine to boot them upon startup. Now, startup stops at the local daemons point. I'm guessing that I made a goof somewhere in that file and it's causing this hang. What can I do to fix this? I've tried booting into single-user mode, but after entering bsd -s at the NeXT> prompt from the rom monitor, I get a "Exception #3 (0xc) at 0x1000374" error. I've also tried to telnet and FTP over (at the point when the machine seems to hang), which I can do, but I cannot login is root, therefore I can't modify any files. Nor do I have a boot floppy or even the NEXTSTEP CD, as I bought this bare-bones system used. Help! :-) Thank you, Colin Anderson colin@rice.edu #################################################################### Path: news.informatik.uni-muenchen.de!lrz-muenchen.de!uni-erlangen.de!news-nue1.dfn.de!news-lei1.dfn.de!news-ber1.dfn.de!news-fra1.dfn.de!news-ge.switch.ch!news.maxwell.syr.edu!howland.erols.net!Supernews73!supernews.com!Supernews69!not-for-mail From: gp Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.software Subject: Can't Get OW2 to Work!!!

I don't understand this stuff.... I loaded the latest PPP binary onto a turbo slab runnng 3.3. After having to make several adjustments to file and folder permissions, I got PPP to connect to my ISP. However, at this point, if I try to run OW2, it just sits there. I keep a csh terminal up and watch the processes running,and I see pppd attached to GateKeeper. Once pppd starts, shouldn't it fork to a background process so other apps can pick it up? Moreover, if I try run anything ee, it also hangs in launch mode, and won't come up. If I wait long enough, everything hangs and I have to reboot. Any input would be greatly appreciated....thanks in advance!!!

I recommend to run PStill with the low or medium setting as this is enough for most purposes. The problem with Wills test file was an embedded error handler which hides the error from the user, so his document did not show the problem but simply aborts before the end without further messages. -- * Frank M.

I would recommend that you download more recent versions of all of the third party applications since they have all been substantially improved since they were released (and in the case of OmniWeb, timed out). Many are available at the peak archive site: ftp://ftp.peak.org/pub/rhapsody/ ftp://ftp.peak.org/pub/rhapsody/new_arrivals/ If you want to use OmniWeb, make sure you have all the relevant components and they're installed in the right places...
