I also saw this show, and it was pretty rad... I sure wish I had video taped
|
|
that instead of The Dirty Dozen... (think I could get a copy, Zaphod?)...
|
|
there was a movie a couple of years back with the same kinda atmosphere that
|
|
was also kinda rad... it was called The Lathe of Heaven, about a dude whose
|
|
dreams would come true... anyone remember it? I have it on videotape. Simon

I saw "The Lathe of Heaven" and liked it too. I even went out and read the
|
|
book. Ursula K LeGuin is a good science fiction author. I read another of her
|
|
books after that, but I can't remember the title.

Well, I make an observation about the MPG, (actually a few.) and then they
|
|
decide, Let's gang up on MC! (Gee Wally ..... ) I'll believe the box of 10
|
|
prize when i see it. I will keep my trap shut about it till then. And you
|
|
guys (MPG members and such.) keep on neglecting the fact that Attic Man was
|
|
driving, not I (actually, I was driving his car for a while. I didn't know'how
|
|
to drive a manual. Killed the engine an infinite number of times.). So, get
|
|
your facts straight. I do not believe that all* the MPG members are over 18.

I WOULD LIKE TO TALK WITH SOMEONE ABOUT THE USE OF ASCII EXPRESS PRO WITH THE

|
|
|
|
I HAVE THE LIST OF BASIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE COMANDS, BUT I AM STILL NOT ABLE
|
|
T DOWNLOAD. THERE ARE AN AWFUL LOT OF SELECTIONS FOR CONFIGURING THE PROGRAM
|
|
TO THE INDIVIDUAL COMPUTER. I HAVE A HAYES MICROMODEMIIE FOR EXAMPLE ( THE
|
|
INSERT PROGRAM TALKS OF A MICROMODEM II NOT IIE, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT MAKES A
|
|
DIFFERENCE OR NOT) THE PROGRAM SEEMS TO WORK FOR MOST EVERYTHING THOUGH. WHAT
|
|
DO I USE TO DOWNLOAD THE TYPICAL PROGRAMS FROM A BOARD? THERE'S
|
|
'GET','LOAD','AUTO SAVE','RECEIVE', AND 'X' FOR EXIT TO SUPPOSEDLY EXEC IF YOU
|
|
PICK; THAT IN THE INSTALL PROGRAM!!! I'M TOTATLY CONFUSED NONE OF THEM SEEM TO
|
|
WORK! COULD SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL OR LEAVE A SHORT DESCRIPTION ON HOW
|
|
I SHOULD DOWNLOAD. I ALSO HAVE SMARTCOMI WHICH I HAVE DOWNLOADED SOME PROGRAMS
|
|
ON BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO AN AUTO DOWNLOAD WHERE THE HEAD COMPUTER AUTO
|
|
SAVES TE PROGRAM TO DISK EXECING IT. I ONLY KNOW HOW TO SAVE A TEXT FILE, EDIT
|

IT WITHAPPLE WRITERII, THEN EXEC THAT. WHEN I TRIED TO LOAD A TEXT FILE FROM

Why is it that, when you log on, you get the same privlidges as the unpaid,
|

lazy, persistant caller type? and why is it that the MPG, the NDC, and the

Thought Police, have trouble getting in the same place at the same time? And

why is it, that Attic Man, and Dr. Boogie both wanted to run me over when I was

I have received lots of response on the upload contest, but I think that

there should be more, especially along the lines of C64, IBM, and Macintosh
|

programs and files, most everything that I have received has been for the

Apple!
|

If anyone could help me with a problem with Wordstar, I would sincerely
|
|
appreciate it. I have a copy that is an older rev. which does not support
|
|
modification of printer parameters without knowing the inside locations to
|
|
modify. Could anyone provide me information on:
|
|
|
|
The locations in Wordstar to modify for printer parameters
|
|
such as underline, bold face, etc.
|
|
|
|
or ...
|
|
|
|
Tell me how to imbed control characters in the text itself,
|
|
which would eliminate having to patch Wordstar.
|
|
|
|
P.S. I am using an Apple w/z80 card and a C. Itoh Prowriter printer.
