From The Editor

A Unique Store
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just a half mile from the patio High Above The Rock River stands the
320 Store. A row of parking spaces occupies the space in front of the
unassuming brick building.
Inside, homemade counters and shelves display the store's claim to
fame... high quality fresh produce. A wide variety of fruits and
vegetables are available, both organically grown and regular. Today's
selection includes purple potatoes and fava beans.
The steady stream of customers coming and going attest to the
popularity of the store. They arrive by auto, bicycle, local bus and on
foot. One woman refers to her recipe for gourmet vegetable soup and asks
for help to locate the 17 different herbs and vegetables needed.
A teenager buys a single banana for a snack before going back to his
skateboard.
The checkout system is also homemade. Place your selections on one of
four checkout counters. The clerk places the first kind of produce on a
free standing electronic balance, then enters the price per pound on the
calculator connected to the balance. Hitting ENTER records the weight,
price per pound, and total for that item. After repeating the procedure
for each kind of fruit and vegetable you are buying, hitting TOTAL
calculates the sales tax, calculates the total, prints a tape of the
transaction, and unlocks the cash drawer.
Yes, the 320 Store is truly unique.
KFest is Unique
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Those who have been to KFest in the past will tell you that it is a
unique experience. Sharing, learning, building, trading, competing,
visiting... with others who have known the Apple II experience.
There is still time for you to be a part of KFest 2003. See the KFest
section of this issue for registration information.

NEW UPLOAD IN A2 LIBRARY
""""""""""""""""""""""""
There is a new upload in the education/word.games.and.reading directory:
File: type.away.bxy
Size: 5632
Date: Jun 17
Type.Away is a simple typing program for pre-school kids who aren't quite
ready for Charlie Hartley's Typing Tutor. Written in 8-bit 6502 assembly,
not because it needed to be but rather more as a coding exercise on the
road to my learning assembly. This was to be my Hackfest entry if I had
made it to Kansas Fest this year.
The main executable is only 676 bytes so it will run on any Apple II ever
made and from either DOS 3.3 or ProDOS.
Freeware.

PATENT ON GIF LZW COMPRESSION EXPIRES
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
I read that Unisys' patent on GIF LZW compression expired on June 20th of
this year.
Can anyone explain the significance of this lapse?
-Ken

The expiration of the US patent for LZW means that software that uses the
LZW compression algorithm can be distributed and used legally without
forking over a license fee to Unisys. This means software that creates
GIFs, plus ShrinkIt software, since both use the LZW algorithm.

USING PRIZM IN PROGRAMMING
""""""""""""""""""""""""""
I only use Prizm for editing. I have yet to successfully compile/assemble
software with it. And this is on a real IIgs. I'm sure if you
add/remove/change the order of system extensions on your emulated GS, you
will see different results.
Using the PRIZM editor makes me wish that an emulator would allow for
larger GS screen resolution to see more lines for editing. It is very
disconcerting to get 50+ x 160+ characters in my UNIX windows and get a
fraction of that in the IIgs windows. And don't get me started having
multiple windows open in PRIZM where you want to see both contents at the
same time.

This is something I planned to implement eventually in Sweet16 -- a
protocol for passing files to an extension that would then save them to
disk and cause ORCA scripts to run to compile the code, so you could use,
for example, CodeWarrior as an IDE but have it pass the files through to
ORCA to compile them. :)
It oughtn't to be hard to do, just need the code for a distributable
emulator and the time to add the feature. :)

MORE DISCUSSION ON MARINETTI PROGRAMMING
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Okay, more Marinetti programming questions :)
Marinetti is up, and I'm able to get results on DNS properly, now I'm
trying to actually open the connection (a telnet connection to port 25, aka
to a SMTP server).
here's what I'm trying right now:
dummy := TCPIPOpenTCP(ipid);
constatus := mysrBuff.srState;
while constatus <> 4 do begin {4 being established}
TCPIPPoll;
dummy := TCPIPStatusTCP(ipid,@mysrBuff);
constatus := mysrBuff.srState;
end; {while}
It seems to hang forever here. If I check the TCP states I constantly get
2 (tcpsSYNSENT); if I check the TCP logic errors, I get 0 (tcperrOK).
I -am- supposed to be waiting for tcpsESTABLISHED, correct? :)
Is there something special I'm supposed to specify earlier in TCPIPLogin?

I continue to work on Marinetti. I am now up to needing to use
TCPIPReadLineTCP, but I'm seriously perplexed.
Marinetti's programing documentation indicates this:
function TCPIPReadLineTCP (ipid, delimitStrPtr:
pStringPtr; buffType: integer; data: univ longint;
buffLen: longint; bPtr: rlrBuffPtr): integer;
rlrBuff = record
rlrBuffCount: longint;
rlrBuffHandle: handle;
rlrIsDataFlag: boolean;
rlrMoreFlag: boolean;
rlrBuffSize: longint;
end;
rlrBuffPtr = ^rlrBuff;
I'm not sure at all what data does, and "univ longint", while I can guess
at it, is not listed at all in ORCA references.
I need a lot of help with this one :)
Ryan
(A2.RYAN, Cat 57, Top 31, Msg 21)
>>>>>
"""""
"univ" means turn off type checking and let anything with the right size be
used. "univ longint" means anything 4 bytes -- could be a long integer,
could be a Handle, could be a local buffer, etc.
buffType determines how marinetti treats data:
$0000 - pointer to a buffer of some sort
$0001 - handle (from NewHandle), Marinetti will resize
$0002 - buffData is ignored, a new handle will be returned in the rlrBuff
you should probably just pass $0002 and use the rlrBuffHandle for the data
(remember to free it afterwards).

CREATING A SLIDE SHOW FROM A SERIES OF PRINTS
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
My brother wishes to create a slide show from about 100 print pictures he
has. I am exploring options for him to do so, and have inquired with two
photo labs so far. Converting to slides would be an expensive process at
about $5.50 per photo; scanning/digitizing them is cheaper, but still
expensive at $10 for the CD, plus $1.50/each.
I have a scanner, but it is not the highest quality, and do not wish to
commit to the slow, laborious work. It was also suggested I use a digital
camera to take a picture of the print, but I'm unsure how well that would
work.
Any suggestions?

Having done both, I have to say that they're both tedious to do.
PowerPoint style presentations are not hard to do by any means, but

slides out of those photos would be--and can be done pretty well.

100 pictures? pif! That's only about an hour's work if you "get into the

We did a Powerpoint show with 395 slides! Now THAT was work. The hard
part was resisting the temptation to "fine-tune" each picture.
>> It was also suggested I use a digital camera to take a picture of the

I think the quality would REALLY stink using this method, unless you had
professional equipment to ensure that the camera was mounted and the light
was perfect.
Sheppy responded:
>> I think the only real option is to scan them. <<
I would definitely agree with Sheppy here. Remember, you only need 72 dpi
for screen viewing. You need to experiment with your scanner software AND
with powerpoint, if that's the target platform, to be sure that Powerpoint
isn't re-scaling your pictures. Powerpoint allows you to create slideshows
'targeted' for different screen resolutions, and if the show plays on a
different resolution, it will automatically re-scale, but the results
aren't always nice. I think the ideal solution is to figure out what
resolution to scan at that will bring the pictures in at the right size for
the presentation without having to do any scaling. Taking some time at the
front end to figure that out will save you a LOT of time later.
One other thing about Powerpoint. If I were to do it over again, I would
definitely leave the pictures external to the presentation (IOW, 'LINK'
them in). If you have too many pictures imported, it's too easy for the
whole presentation to be corrupted.
If you don't want comments or transitions in the show, GraphicConverter
also has a slide show feature.

1. Installation of an Apple IIe card. (See The Tinkerer's Corner in the
March 2003 issue of The Lamp!)
2. Replacement of the LC68040 processor with a full 68040 chip.
3. Installation of a 32MB ram stick. (Built in 4MB + 32 = 36MB total ram)
4. Replacement of the original hard drive with a 500MB drive.
Being one of the "pizza box" Macs, the CPU and keyboard fit into my
suitcase with my clothes.
The Mac 12" RGB monitor, modem, mouse, and cables fit neatly in a cardboard
file storage box purchased from an office supply store. (12" wide x 15.5"
long x 10" high)
A canvas bag with carrying straps was constructed to snugly fit the
cardboard box, holding it on end while it is carried.
So two hands can carry my clothes, personal items, and the computer all in
one trip from the car to the room.
So there you have an Apple IIe plus a Mac Quadra 605 that can be lugged
along when traveling.

OH MY LORD, WE'RE GOING TO THE DANCE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few years ago, when the University of Hawai'i men's basketball team
earned its way into the National Collegiate Athletic Association
championship tournament--known alternatively as "March Madness" and "The
Big Dance"--with an improbable run through an impossible field of Western
Athletic Conference opponents, legend has it one of the homegrown players
on the Hawai'i roster screamed at the top of his lungs, "Oh my Lord, we're
going to the dance!"
Who wouldn't be excited? March Madness is a gathering of the best of
college athletics in this country, and while some may leave disappointed,
no one regrets going, although many regret squandering the chance to go.
The Apple II Community has its own Big Dance--it's called KansasFest.
It is indeed a gathering of the best the Apple II world has to offer, but
unlike college basketball's Big Dance, no one leaves disappointed, unless
it's because they couldn't do everything they wanted to, and like college
basketball's Big Dance, many regret squandering their chance to go.
Unlike March Madness, the field isn't limited to those who are invited
only--or rather, everyone's invited.
Don't live with regrets--go to the dance.

ALL TYPES OF PEOPLE COME TO KFEST - A PINCH OF SALT
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
By some people's accounts, I'm still a KFest puppy. I can't remember if
this is 3.5 or 4.5 - .5 being when I was a guest interloper at some of the
evening events my first year. I've been a regular full timer ever since.
Thanks to Jerry Cline, I've met and have kept meeting some of the most
interesting people every year in July during KFest (and now you know who to
blame). ;)
One personal observation that I would like to share is the occasional soap
opera that is KFest. Every year, people of all types come together for a
common interest - the Apple II. Most of these people have strong opinions
about the II community, but not everyone agrees on the methods, goings-on
etc. It's political, it's real and it's likely to occasionally rub some
people the wrong way. Every year, there's been a meltdown somewhere -
someone got offended, frustrated, jilted, left out, interrupted,
patronized... =) (not on purpose that I know of) but it's understandable
that these things happen when a serious, passionate bunch of people get
together in close proximity for 6 days, eating weird food and engaging in
sleep-deprivation. Honestly, we could televise our own reality TV show or
human lab experiment. The good news is that before it's all over, pretty
much anyone and everyone who got miffed has found a way to make up and let
it go. I find it all very interesting, because the closet sociologist in me
believes this parallels most extended families and tribes. As communities
go, KFesters tend to be real top-shelf people. And besides all that, KFest
is just plain fun, chock full of chewy gooey geeky goodness.
So, take it all with a grain of salt. It's still too early for anyone to be
getting miffed. Gotta wait until at least day 4.

The KFest FAQ Version 4.1.2
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
The KFest FAQ--Summer Camp for Apple II Geeks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
by Ryan M. Suenaga, M.S.W., L.S.W.
[editor@juiced.gs]
The KFest FAQ Version 4.1.2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following article is set up in a form commonly seen on the
Internet, called Frequently Asked Questions. It is designed to answer some
of the most common questions people have about KansasFest, the Apple II
event of the year. It is not designed to answer general questions about
the Apple II, although there may be some overlap.
Any questions about this article can be sent via email to
editor@juiced.gs.
Q: What's a FAQ, and how is it pronounced?
A: The letters "FAQ" stand for _F_requently _A_sked _Q_uestions. When
people first hear of or learn of a subject, such as KansasFest, they often
have a number of questions which others before them had when they also
first learned of the same subject. A FAQ is a document listing both the
questions and answers most frequently associated with new users, to save
themselves (and others trying to assist them) time and frustration.
And by the way, it's pronounced "fack", nearly identical to "fact".
Q: What is the purpose of this FAQ?
A: This FAQ is set up to assist people interested in KansasFest, also known
as KFest. Many Apple II enthusiasts are interested in attending or just
want some information about this event, so the most common questions are
answered here.
Q: How can this FAQ be distributed?
A: The content of this FAQ is copyright 1999-2003 by Ryan M. Suenaga.
Distribute freely, provided the content is unchanged.
Q: What is KFest?
A: KansasFest, abbreviated "KFest", is a computing conference held every
summer at Avila College (now Avila University) in Kansas City, Missouri.
Its original formal name was "The Apple II Summer Conference" while its
nickname was "KansasFest", which was abbreviated to "KFest". Today, the
conference's official name is "KansasFest".
Q: When was the first KFest held?
A: The first KansasFest was held in 1989. It was originally sponsored by
Resource-Central, the folks who brought you the wonderful _Open-Apple_ and
_A2-Central_ (among several other Apple II) publications. After
Resource-Central became ICON, The Apple II Summer Conference became
ICONference. This lasted one summer until ICON shut down. Two different
companies sponsored KFest before Intrec Software, publishers of _ProTERM_,
took over a few years back. This July will welcome the 15th KFest.
Q: When is KFest this year?
A: KansasFest 2003 runs from Tuesday through Sunday, July 22-27, 2003. The
very popular early arrival day is now officially rolled into KansasFest
proper. Meals, however, will not be served at Avila until Wednesday
dinner.
Q: Where is KFest held?
A: KFest is held at Avila University in Kansas City, Missouri. The address
and phone number are:
Avila University
11901 Wornall Road
Kansas City, Missouri 64145
United States of America
(816) 942-8400
Q: If it's held in Missouri, why is it called KansasFest?
A: I dunno. It does take place in Kansas City, and if it makes you feel
better, the Kansas border is very close to Avila University.
Q: Who comes to KFest?
A: While KFest was originally devoted to programmers, nowadays all kinds of
folk from all over the world show up at Avila University. Programmers,
users, newsletter publishers, and everyday folk show up from Europe,
Canada, Australia, and all over the United States to celebrate the Apple
II.
Q: Who organizes KFest?
A: Currently, KFest is organized by a committee headed by The Grand Gouda,
Steve "Godzilla" Gozdziewski, who has taken over from The Big Cheese, Cindy
Adams. Cindy remains on the committee. The scheduling is done by Tony
Diaz, of Alltech Electronics fame. Tony also handles the maintenance of
the World Wide Web site, Devin Reade maintains the email lists, and Eric
"Sheppy" Shepherd provides World Wide Web hosting services and organizes
HackFest, the programming contest. KFest is sponsored by Jerry Cline of
Intrec Software.
Q: How do I register for KFest? How much does it cost?
A: Depending on when you register, registration prices vary. If you
register early, you'll get a better deal. Please check the KFest Home Page
at
http://www.kfest.org/
for the most current information. You can download the registration form
in PDF format from
http://www.kfest.org/KFest2003Reg.pdf
If you cannot download the form or print a PDF file, please contact Jerry
Cline at Intrec Software (contact information is elsewhere in this file)
and he will send you a form by fax or postal mail.

Q: Which airport do I fly into and how do I get from there to Avila?
A: The major airport nearly everyone flies into is Kansas City
International, which goes by the code letters MCI (not KCI, which will get
you to Indonesia). There's a couple of small commuter airports which are
closer, but unless you're Tony Diaz (who flies his own plane), you're not
likely to use these.
Even though MCI is the "closest" major airport, it's still most of an
hour's drive from there to Avila, so walking is out of the question and cab
fare would be substantial. Your best bet would be to try and catch a ride
with another KFester who'll be flying in or passing by around the same time
you'll be arriving. Carl Knoblock unofficially organizes rides to and from
the airport. The best way to get in on the ride planning is to join the
KFest email list (information on subscribing is elsewhere in this
document).
Q: What kind of official activities go on at KFest?
A: Officially, there is a keynote speech, sessions on various computing
topics, HackFest, a celebrity roast, product demonstrations, and a vendor
fair.
Q: Who is this year's roastee?
A: Just announced by KFest Roast MC Ken Gagne: Geoff Weiss, author of
Spectrum Internet Suite and many other Apple IIgs programs, will be the
guest of honor at this year's roast.
Q: What if I want to host a session?
A: Email sessions@apple2.org with your ideas for a session. Sessions can
include new ways to use programs, new programs, networking, or just about
anything you can imagine. Everyone has something they can teach.
Q: What kind of unofficial activities go on at KFest?
A: Unofficially, there's been movie outings, pizza nights, Bite The Bag
contests, late night eating at Denny's, runs out to Krispy Kreme, Floppy
Disk Ninja, Apple II Jeopardy, and huge groups of folks going to eat huge
pieces of beef at K.C. Masterpiece and Jess and Jim's restaurants. And
there's a new contest this year called "CansasFest", a homemade 802.11b
antenna contest.
Q: Has anyone attended every KFest?
A: One person: Tony Diaz of Computer Circulation Center (formerly known as
Alltech Electronics).
Q: I hear that the Avila University dorm is wired for Ethernet. Is there a
way I can access that while I'm there?
A: Yes. In each dorm room in the halls of Avila are two outlets that seem
to be phone jacks. These _aren't_ phone jacks. They're Ethernet ports--to
be exact, they're RJ-45 connectors that are compatible with 10 Base-T
Ethernet. The entire Avila dorm is connected to the Internet this way,
making for high speed World Wide Web browsing, electronic mail, and ftp
connections for KansasFesters during their stay!
The Avila Ethernet uses a protocol called Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol, or DHCP, for short. Those of you who have set up TCP/IP
connections with Windows or Macintosh computers (or, for that matter, the
Apple IIgs) probably have some familiarity with inserting IP addresses, DNS
addresses, and Gateway addresses. The beauty of DHCP is that it sets up
nearly everything you need dynamically, meaning that the server assigns
these addresses--all you need to do is set up TCP/IP on your computer and
choose the DHCP protocol.
Regardless of which platform you use, if you have software set up to
share your hard drive with other computers, you probably ought to disable
it--unless you like everyone in the Avila Ethernet having access to your
files.
At this point, you ought to be connected. If you previously had any
proxy servers set up for use with your setup before Avila, disable them.
You ought to have easy access for checking mail, browsing the Web, or using
file transfer protocol--and very high speeds. One last caveat:
As Spam on the Internet proliferates, it has become accepted practice
to close off an Internet Service Provider's mail sending server--usually
using Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, or smtp--to access from anyone who is
not directly connected to the ISP. In other words, no one wants to be a
relaying point for Spam.
Because of this, it's likely you will not be able to use the same smtp
server you use at home to send mail while at Avila. There is, however, a
mail.avila.edu smtp server that can be used while at Avila. That ought to
keep your email flowing freely.
Q: I hear that there's wireless Internet access in the Avila dorm. How do
I get hooked up?
A: Ah, the infamous wireless. Several KFesters have set up Apple Airport
Base Stations and other equivalents. Please see one of them (Sean Fahey,
Dain Neater, Eric Shepherd, and Ryan Suenaga are likely candidates) if
you'd like to get on the wireless 'Net.
Q: How can I learn more about KFest?
A: You can get more information on KansasFest by visiting the KansasFest
World Wide Web site at http://www.kfest.org/ or sending email to
kfest-help@kfest.org. You could also subscribe to the KFest mailing list
by sending email to majordomo@kfest.org. In the body of the email include
the text:
subscribe kfest
You will receive a confirmation email with instructions on finalizing your
subscription.
Q: Should I go to KFest?
A: Need you ask? KFest is a must for the serious Apple II fanatic. Do
yourself a favor--you're worth it. Show up at KFest 2003, the summer camp
for Apple Geeks.

Kfest 2003 HackFest Rules
"""""""""""""""""""""""""
It's that time again!
KansasFest 2003
HackFest Rules
1. Contest begins at 7:00 AM on Wednesday, July 23, and ends at 7:00 AM on
Saturday, July 26 so that judging can begin. The winners will be announced
during the Saturday morning sessions. Entries submitted late won't be
considered. Entries may be done by individuals or teams; however,
individual achievement counts.
2. Three judges will be selected by the KFest committee to judge the
competition; at least one of them will be available at all times, to
provide assistance and judgement calls. At least one judge will be a
non-programmer.
3. Entries must be written entirely during the allotted time; no source
code -- printed or on any form of computer-readable media -- may be used
(although sample source code printed inside standard and acceptable
reference materials is allowed), and the program must run on an Apple II
model present at KFest.
4. Any version of any development environment and programming language may
be used; however, there may not be any libraries, header files, or macro
sets used that aren't standard-issue for that version of the development
environment or programming language.
5. Programs can't require unusual additional software or hardware; it's up
to the judges to decide what constitutes "unusual." The participant should
ask in advance.
6. Programs can't take unfair advantage of system addons written in advance
for the sole purpose of easing the work to be done during the contest
period. Any extensions or other system addons used by an entry must have
been released to the general public at least three months prior to the
contest date.
7. Entries will be judged on completeness, cleverness, and the somewhat
vague "cool" factor. Entries don't have to be useful if they're otherwise
impressive, and they don't have to be "finished."
8. All entry programs are the property of the creator, and do not have to
be released to the general public at any time; however, we hope that
entries will be distributed by some means (whether for free or otherwise)
when ready. However, entries may be described or discussed, including
screen shots (where applicable), by the KFest committee for promotional
purposes, or by legitimate Apple II community press.
The following lists are not necessarily complete lists of everything
allowed; these are to be taken as "givens." If it's not on the list,
please ask for confirmation.
Acceptable software:
System software
Development environment (no customizations)
GSBug
Nifty List
Marinetti
Exerciser
ORCA/Debugger, Splat!
DesignMaster, Foundation, Genesys, ResLin
Talking Tools
Spectrum, ProTERM, ANSITerm
Acceptable hardware:
Apple II computer, monitor, disk drives, hard drives
CD-ROM drive, tape drive
Hard disk controller card
Sound card (speakers/headphones/etc)
Accelerator card (any speed)
RAM card
Accepted reference material:
All official Apple reference materials (including
manuals, technical notes, and file type notes).
Reference manuals included with development tools
and software.
Commercially-available reference manuals.
Any other hardware, software, or reference material needs the approval of
the judges in advance. When in doubt, ask the judges.
