That Reminds Me of a Song
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From High Above The Rock River, the warm, sunny morning extends an
invitation to walk along the bank of the river. The crocuses breaking
through the soil... The smell of the soil waking up... the reflection of
the blue sky in the water... bring to mind a song from the musical,
Oklahoma!
"Oh What a Beautiful Mornin"
This in turn reminds us of another song from the same musical:
"Kansas City"
Join us in Kansas City for KFest... July 22-27, 2003...
* I got to Kansas City on a Frid'y
* By Sattidy I larned a thing or two
Get to Kansas Fest on a Tuesday... by Saturday you will have learned a
thing or two.
* Ev'rythin's like a dream in Kansas City,
* It's better than a magic lantern show!
KFest is better than a magic lantern show.
* Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City
* They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
For years people have been saying they have gone about as far as they can
go with the Apple II computers... each year at KFest other people prove
them wrong.
* They got a big theayter they call a burlesque.
* Fer fifty cents you c'n see a dandy show.
Well, we don't have a theater, but we do have fun at KFest.
* From the lyrics to "Kansas City", copyright by owners
See the KFest section in this issue of _The Lamp!_ for registration
information. We would really like to see you there!
That is July 22-27, 2003... mark your calender... send in you registration.

ANIMASIA 3-D
""""""""""""
Hi All,
There are still heaps of things I haven't tried on the Apple ][gs. Until
I've been through my list, I'm not interested in buying another computer.
One piece of software, purchased some years ago at KFest from the author,
is Animasia 3-D. Here are my questions regarding this application:
1. Who of you have had experience using Animasia 3-D? If so, or if you
actually own this Apple ][gs software, please hold up your hand. Or drop
me a note.
2. If you answered Yes to question 1, can you please send me a DXF file
which can be opened in Animasia 3-D or help me find a DXF file to test?
3. If you have valid contact data for Michael Lutynski, author of Animasia
3-D, please share that with me, too.
Thanks from Greg

I once took a 3D Studio Max file with my company's logo (way back when I
was at Logicware) and through a series of conversions got it into Animasia
3D to play with. That's about all I did with it, but I do own it. It's a
great program.

Hi Steve
As you've got Animasia, let me direct you to the file "About.this.disk" on
the floppy disk Animasia.3D.
CorelDraw and AutoCAD apparently make DXF files, which are
3-D graphics files which can be opened in Animasia 3-D, too.
There are quite a few references to DXF sites on the WWW. Finding
the files themselves and applications which make them is proving
more difficult. Thanks for asking.

Greg,
Re: DXF files
Thanks for the explanation. As I read it over, I remembered reading it
before. However, since the file type was meaningless to me, I did not pay
it much attention. Now that you have identified it for me as a file type
that Coreldraw and AutoCAD can produce, I know what it is. However, since
I use only Apple II computers, I am afraid that I can't help you with
finding some DXF files.

SAFE v1.2 NOW AVAILABLE
"""""""""""""""""""""""
Following on from the login problems that Greg Nelson saw with SAFE, I have
made some changes to the script set. SAFE 1.2 is now available from my web
site.
Users who had problems connecting to some sites, may find these problems
have now gone way. Also, those who had problems with resuming file
transfers, may also find the problems have been fixed.
I would suggest that everybody who uses SAFE, should update their working
copy as soon as possible.
If you have any problems at all with using SAFE, please make sure that you
have read the !Help! files all the way through, especially the
'Troubleshooting' section. If this does not explain, or show you a fix for
your problems, please contact me on <speccie@btopenworld.com> with a full

a suggestion of a fix, or tell you how to send me a detailed Debug file so
I can try and track down the problem in detail.

CHANGES IN LYNX
"""""""""""""""
A quick check on what has changed with Lynx over the last 5 years at
http://lynx.isc.org/release/lynx2-8-4/CHANGES shows that really nothing
much has changed (at least if used from an Apple II).
I personally haven't upgraded beyond a June 1999 version of lynx since
there is no reason to. I think the reason I even upgraded to the June 1999
version in the first place was that it handled certain news group message
subjects a little better then previous versions.

AE SonicBlaster CARD
""""""""""""""""""""
Hello all,
This is perhaps in the wrong category/topic, but nevertheless here are my
questions:
Now that I've got my AE SonicBlaster card installed, there's a fair amount
of hum at medium volume. Other than turning down the gain on the sound
card and in the Control Panel, how's the best way to reduce the sound of
hum? In other words, how's the best way to shield the card from electronic
noise inside my Apple ][gs?
Aluminum foil? block of lead? tachion particle field?
There's no metal shield on the inside of the lid; would that influence
extraneous sounds coming from the speakers?
FWIW, the sound card (slot 3) is separated from other cards by an empty
slot. That's the greatest distance it can hope to achieve from other
cards.
I've got the Radio Shack amplified speakers, cat. number 40-1407 in case it
matters. Thanks in advance from
Greg

"""""
My first Rom 1 board had so much noise, I finally paid for a new board to
fix it. Rom 3 boards generally have less problem with noise. I have no
space next door to my SonicBlaster, and no shield in the lid, and no noise
problem.

Carl brings forth a valid, often forgotten (at least by me) point. ROM_01
motherboards tend to be more noisy than ROM_3 motherboards.
There is also one other possibility, and that is that the cables that run
to the speakers themselves are not well grounded.

Project Delta Phi
"""""""""""""""""
Project Delta Phi is now ready for some beta testers. I want to keep
Project Delta Phi confidential at this time so I can not specifically
describe the requirements for beta testers. I will list general questions
that will need answering if you wish to be a beta tester. No beta testing
experience is necessary--just free time on your hands.
Project Delta Phi will be Open Source software--this means that I will be
collecting any money by users of this software. This, in turn, means that
beta testing is a volunteer effort--any expenses that are incurred can not
be reimbursed (i.e. Internet time, disks, etc.).
As with any beta software, you may experience crashes, hangs, etc. under
normal everyday use. You must be prepared to deal with such occurrences.
Any individual involved with Project Delta Phi can not discuss to anyone
that they are involved with Project Delta Phi until the software is
officially announced.
Beta testing qualification is based on the answers given to the following
question. To make life easier, most answers can be given with one or two
words--offering more will not make any difference (besides more work for
you). If there is something more that I will need from any beta testing
request, I will ask it in email.
Do not post any beta testing requests. All requests must be sent by email
to geoff@apple2.gs . To ensure that I see the email in a timely manner,
please make sure the subject includes "Project Delta Phi Beta Test
Request". If you do not get a reply from me in one week, please do not
hesitate to contact me at the same email address (geoff@apple2.gs) to query
the status of the request. I will do my best if you meet the
qualifications for beta testing Project Delta Phi.
Beta Testers must have (or be able to do) the following:
* A real working IIgs (an emulated GS is optional).
* A modern computer running MacOS X or Windows 98 or higher.
* A method to transfer files among the IIgs and the modern computer that is
known to work.
* Ability to receive files via email and install such files on the real
IIgs. (and to optional emulated GS)
* Ability to get files from the IIgs (real or emulated) so they can be sent
via email.
* Large quantity of commercial (at least originally) of IIgs software.
------
Please provide the following information to be considered for a beta tester
for Project Delta Phi:
Real IIgs Hardware
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Rom 01 or 03?
* Version number of System Software (i.e. 6.0.1)
* Accelerator speed?
* Estimated free space of hard disk(s)--doesn't need to be exact (i.e. 10
megs, 50+ megs)?
* Brand/Model of printer?
* Modem or Ethernet for Internet access?
* Second Sight card?
Modern Computer (primary if multiple)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* OS and OS version?
* Estimated free space of hard disk(s)--doesn't need to be exact (i.e. 10
megs, 50+ megs)?
* Brand/model of printer?
* Modem or Ethernet for Internet access?
Emulated IIgs (optional)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Emulator name?
* Can you print?
* Can you access the Internet?
* Can you get files to/from the IIgs?
* Can you get files to/from the modern computer?
Can you spend up to 2-10 hours in a given week testing unusual usage of
software (guidance will be provided for methods to test)?
In a short paragraph, why are you interested in being a beta tester for
Project Delta Phi?
Thank you for your interest.

HELP NEEDED FOR UNIX FORUM
""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Hello all...
Its been a long time coming and a lot of missed promises, but I finally
find myself in a place where I can devote enough time to getting the Unix
Form officially on-line.
So I have a couple of requests from the Syndicomm community to aid in
getting the forum open RSN:
1) Anyone have any ideas for a name? (I suppose the Unix Forum would
work, but maybe we can think of something a little snappier.
2) I need some help. Mainly I need some of the gurus out there to help
propose topics, reply to users in need and help define what we should focus
the forum on.
My vision for this forum is that it will be a place that Syndicomm users of
all Unix skills levels can ask questions, bounce ideas and help others in a
friendly environment. All to often the Unix community can be very hostile
to new users and users who don't spend time reading hundreds of web pages
searching for answers. I hope that in our forum the phrases RTM or RTFM
are never typed.
Kindly contact me at wayner@syndicomm.com if you interested in helping out.

ILLUMINATING THE LAMP |
-----------------------------
An overview of GEnieLamp A2 and The Lamp!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By Steven Weyhrich
The Lamp Bursts Forth!
In the first article of this series, I outlined the background of the
GEnieLamp as the creation of John Peters, and related some of the events
that led to its appearance in February 1992. In this article I would like
to look at the first year of publication of GEnieLamp A2, and at the same
time review the significant events in the Apple II world as they were
related in the magazine.
I also need to make a correction to one piece of information in that first
article. I had mentioned the unique position that GEnieLamp A2 and The
Lamp! have as the only platform in the GEnieLamp series that is archived in
its entirety and is available for download on the Internet. I credited Ryan
Suenaga for keeping the entire run available on a web site when the online
services (GEnie and Delphi) faded away. David Kerwood sent me an e-mail to
reminded me that it was HIS A2-Web site that was originally the Internet
host for the various editions of GEnieLamp (text, AppleWorks, HyperStudio,
and HyperCard). David's site opened in April 1997 as a section on the
original Syndicomm.com web site, and continued to be a repository for the
Lamp publications until August 2001, when they were transferred over to
their current home at http://lamp.a2central.com/, where Ryan has currently
archived the collection. So, in addition to the others that I thanked for
the preservation of GEnieLamp A2 and A2Pro and The Lamp!, let me thank
David Kerwood for the megabytes of storage that he allocated for them in
the past. (By the way, you can find A2-Web, "The Mother of All Apple II Web
Sites!" at its current home, http://www.wbwip.com/a2web/index.html).
Now, let's light the Lamp and take a look at where we've been...
YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE
In the last article I discussed John Peters' efforts to create the first
GEnieLamp publication for the Atari ST Roundtable on GEnie, and how he was
asked to expand his efforts to involve additional platforms. The appearance
of GEnieLamp A2, GEnieLamp Mac, and GEnieLamp IBM on April 1, 1992 was the
start of this novel publishing effort. The "cover page" for that first
issue of GEnieLamp A2 (identified as "GEnie Lamp Apple ][") is reproduced
below:

Peters placed himself publisher and editor for each of the GEnieLamp
editions, and a member of each of the targeted Roundtables was recruited to
be Co-Editor. In the case of the Apple II edition, A2 Roundtable member Tom
Schmitz was the selected connection. Schmitz, a resident of Hawaii,
continued in that position for the first six issues, until the demands of
his job made it necessary to relinquish that position to Darrel Raines.
Raines had made several contributions to the newsletter, beginning with the
August 1992 issue.
As of the second issue, the masthead changed slightly to make Kent Fillmore
the publisher (recall that he was the computing roundtables manager who had
asked Peters to expand GEnieLamp beyond the Atari ST edition), and John
Peters as Senior Editor. The name was also clarified to "GEnie Lamp A2", to
be more consistent with the name of the A2 Roundtable:

By the third issue, Tom Schmitz' title was elevated to that of Editor for
the A2 edition, and Phil Shapiro, who had contributed articles from the
very beginning, was listed as a Co-Editor. Also listed was an additional
GEnieLamp publication, "GEnie Lamp Elsewhere", which was designed to
represent news and activities on some of the less populated GEnie computing
roundtables, "elsewhere" than Apple II, IBM, Macintosh, and Atari ST.
With issue number 4 in July 1992, contributions from the A2Pro (Apple II
Programmers) Roundtable were added, making the official title "GEnieLamp
A2/A2Pro". This combined A2 and A2Pro Roundtable coverage continued until
February 1993, when the combined size of contributions from the two
Roundtables made it prudent to split off GEnieLamp A2Pro as a separate
publication.
The "publisher" of GEnieLamp changed, as Kent Fillmore's name disappeared
from the masthead, replaced by "GEnie Information Services". With the
October 1992 issue, the space between "GEnie" and "Lamp" had been removed,
and by the end of the year the GEnieLamp Elsewhere edition had disappeared,
and GEnieLamp [PR] (which reproduced press releases from GEnie) and
GEnieLamp MacPro had appeared on the masthead:

SHOW AND TELL: GENERAL CONTENT IN 1992
John Peters designed the GEnieLamp series to have a pool of general
articles that could be interesting for any of the represented platforms,
and then have other platform-specific columns that would fill out the
remainder of that newsletter. Also, an important part of each issue was the
distillation of postings from the Roundtable, which provided information,
humor, or news. The template that he followed for most issues during the
first year was to start with his editorial, include a note from Tom
Schmitz, then move on to top Apple II news, gleanings from postings on the
A2 Roundtable, and finally various types of articles. Most of these
articles were specific to the Apple II, but some were general enough to
appeal to any computer user.
In the first issue in April 1992, John started with his editorial, FROM MY
DESKTOP, in which he described the expansion of the GEnieLamp concept
beyond its beginnings in the Atari ST Roundtable, and welcomed the new
platforms, specifically Apple II, Macintosh, and IBM. He then moved on to
report on some Apple II-specific news, dealing with the latest release of
ShrinkIT and GS-ShrinkIt, an announcement of the Apple II Achievement
Awards, and a list of new uploads to the A2 library. His editorial
concluded by giving information about things going on elsewhere on GEnie,
including upcoming events in the Desktop Publishing and the Laptops
Roundtables. The second part of FROM MY DESKTOP was a short introduction
from Apple II editor Tom Schmitz, and it concluded with a message gleaned
from the A2 RT bulletin board, in which Chief Sysop Chet Day announcing his
retirement from the Apple II Roundtables.
Later issues of GEnieLamp A2 began with content that appeared to be general
enough to apply to all GEnieLamp editions. He introduced an additional
publication, GEnieLamp Elsewhere, to give news about Roundtables other than
the Atari ST, Apple II, Mac, and IBM). He also founded the GEnieLamp
Roundtable, an area on GEnie designed specifically for the GEnieLamp
newsletters, and their writers and editors. To promote the new
publications, Peters even devised a "Computer Wars" contest to allow
readers to send in reasons why they thought THEIR computer was the best.
Although the largest number of responses came from the Apple II readers,
the winning computer was not an Apple II. In the September 1992 issue, the
first place award went to a user whose essay described "the modem" as the
best computer (because it made any computer extensible to a larger
network). Second place was awarded to the HP-15C Advanced Programmable
Scientific Calculator, and third place was the NeXT computer.
During this first year of publication, Peters also introduced the DiskTop
Publishing Association (later called the Desktop Publishing Association),
to promote digital publications. He highlighted this further during
November 1992, which he and other DPA members designated as "Electronic
Publishing Month".
To round out the newsletter and include some items that were fun, ASCII art
made its debut in the September 1992 issue, with Mike White (and other
artists) and CowTOONS, ASCII drawings of cows. Also introduced during that
first year were word find puzzles in the form of the "Search-Me!" column,
which ran from July 1992 until late 1993.
The HUMOR ONLINE column started with the first issue, and continued through
most of the run of GEnieLamp A2. Titles of these stories included:
Chocolate Layer Cake 1040; Shareware registration incentives that don't
work; Political Viruses; Fifty Ways To Hose Your Code (song parody); The
Oyster; IBM's "Timeless" processor chip; Monty Python humor in the Amiga ST
Roundtable; the B*st*rd Operator From Hell; Apple vs IBM (pounding nails
with your head); and The Art of Flaming.
APPLE II CONTENT IN 1992
ROUNDTABLE NEWS
With the general success and acceptance of the GEnieLamp A2 newsletter
during its first few months, the July 1992 issue added news from the A2Pro
Roundtable. To promote participation in A2Pro, its Sysops used this
opportunity to announce a contest for creation of Finder Extensions for the
new System 6 software for the Apple IIGS. Later in the year they also
introduced A2 University, a way to teach programming online.
In the A2 RT, the departure of Chet Day (mentioned above) was followed by
the appointment of Dean Esmay as the new Chief Sysop. His new status
resulted in the privilege of being interviewed TWICE by GEnieLamp A2 during
1992. One of the new efforts that was initiated by the A2 RT was the
introduction of the Lost Classics Project (which continues to this very
day, under different management). Headed by Tim Tobin, Lost Classics had
the goal of preserving classic Apple II software, finished products and (if
possible) source code. Its first major success was the release of Apple
Writer 2.1 and GraFORTH from Paul Lutus.
During the year, the 1991 GEnie Apple II User's Choice Awards and Apple II
Achievement Awards were announced.
SOFTWARE NEWS
One of the important news stories reported during 1992 in GEnieLamp A2
revolved around Apple's release of Apple IIGS System 6 and HyperCard IIGS
v1.1, and prolific discussion of how to make use of its new features. Apple
also gained points in the Apple II community with the announcement that
they had agreed to license the Apple Programmers and Developers Association
(APDA) catalog to Resource Central. In the midst of this good news from
Apple was continued bad news in the form of rumors of Apple's impending
discontinuation of the Apple II lines of computers.
Quality Computers gained status with its agreement to take over Beagle
Bros' Apple II products, allowing that company to concentrate in its
efforts to create Macintosh software.
Joe Kohn began his long involvement with the A2 RT by announcing a contest
to help finish the Free Tools Association (FTA) game "Bouncin' Ferno", and
also create levels for it. This contest would be held through inCider
magazine, in which his Shareware Solutions column ran each month.
During this year there appeared some of the first efforts at creating an
Apple IIGS emulator (with a product under developed for 386/486 computers).
Other new products introduced in GEnieLamp included the first release of
GNO/ME; Your Money Matters (financial software); CoPilot v2.0 (an offline
reader for GEnie); AppleNET 2.0 (BBS) and its associated ModemWorks 3.0
package; and FantasyWorks (fantasy football league software).
There was also a disappointing turn of events that occurred during the
year. Seven Hills Software dropped plans to publish a commercial version of
SoundSmith, a music design and playback program. This happened after a
tester broke his non-disclosure agreement and distributed a beta version to
a friend, who then shared it with IIGS pirate community. As a result of
this action the author, Huibert Aalbers, dropped completely out of the
Apple IIGS programming community.
HARDWARE NEWS
On the hardware front, Western Design Center announced a new, faster 65816
processor that would be capable of running at 14 MHz. Programmer "Burger"
Bill Heineman's discussed his plans for Project Avatar, an effort to create
an Apple IIGS compatible computer with off-the-shelf parts. This generated
a lot of interest, but not much in terms of results.
Several authors presented stories about hardware maintenance (Apple DMP and
ImageWriter I & II printer tuneup, and Disk II tuneup) and modifications
(changing an HST-only modem to dual standard).
KANSASFEST
KansasFest (known also as the A2 Central Summer Conference) was, of course,
a major focus of the late summer of 1992. Apple Computer announced the
coming of the MS-DOS FST and the System 6.0.1 update (described as "a
maintenance release made necessary by the Apple II Ethernet Card"). Bill
Heineman's Avatar project was presented, and also released was Foundation,
a complex resource editor for the Apple IIGS.
REVIEWS
Product Reviews that appeared included the Quickie scanner and SupraFax
Modem; Computer Keyboarding; Pointless; GSTape/HDTape; HyperStudio vs
HyperCard IIGS; NoiseTracker, SoniqTracker, and MODzap; BBS software; the
games LetterSlide, Bouncin' Ferno, Eamon adventures, MineFields GS,
and GEnie Online Chess; financial programs Your Money Matters and Financial
GeniuS; Big Text Machine; and review of the books "Modem USA" and "Shared
Minds".
INTERVIEWS
Apple II personalities who were interviewed during 1992 included Dean Esmay
(twice), Karl Bunker, Matt Deatherage, Alan Bird, Gary Utter, Morgan Davis,
and Randy Brandt.
WRITERS
Many different authors contributed to GEnieLamp in its first year. These
included Larry Faust, Kent Fillmore, Udo Huth (of Germany), John Majka,
Richard Vega, Roger Wagner, Steven Weyhrich (me), and Lorraine Wilson. Ken
Franklin (of Milestone 2000 fame) had a one-time column called THE PROGRAM
CLINIC in June 1992, to answer questions from readers (The concept was
later continued by members of the Apple II RT staff). Mike Westerfield
wrote about The Byte Works and what it had to offer the Apple II and IIGS
programmer. Gary Utter commented about handling heat in your computer. And
Phil Shapiro started his long-running series discussing thoughts about
various aspects of telecommunications.
MISCELLANEOUS FEATURES
A common feature of GEnieLamp was to list and sometimes review files that
were uploaded to the GEnie A2 library. The first detailed listing of this
type was THE ONLINE LIBRARY, written by Richard Vega for the June 1992
issue.
Gleanings from posts on the Roundtable included fascinating stories about
old mainframe computers; an attempt to organize Apple II users in the
Alliance International, Inc (AII); the use of external power supplies for
the Apple IIGS; and Kent Fillmore's story and reminiscence about
discontinuing his long-running Apple II BBS.
Oh, and beginning with the June 1992 issue, GEnieLamp A2 reprinted the
first chapter of my Apple II History (which ran continuously until July
1994).
PARTING WORDS
The Apple II world was still running strong and healthy during 1992. The
GEnie A2 and A2Pro Roundtables helped continue their promotion and support
of the platform, but the signs of strain were beginning to deepen. Despite
Apple's still solid support of existing customers with the release of new
system software and promises of other updates and hardware to come, the
signs of decline were still becoming apparent. The most painful
announcement of all was to come in the last month of the year; however, it
did not get reported in GEnieLamp until the beginning of 1993, and so I
will leave that for next time.

The IIe Card for the Mac LC Series
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
by Lyle Syverson
It is an intriguing idea... a Apple IIe with a hard drive, super drive, an
assortment of cards that can be moved into and out of slots without
shutting down, provision for adding 5.25 and 3.5 floppy drives.
Why You Might Want a "IIe in an Older Mac"
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
1. You sold off your Apple II but...
a. You still have data on 5.25 floppies that you want to transfer to
another system.
b. You have some games on 5.25 floppies that you would like to play
again.
2. You want an inexpensive way to access software for the IIe on those CD
ROM compilations.
3. You would like to say that you have "been there, done that".
What You Will Need
''''''''''''''''''
1. A IIe card.
2. The special cable to allow connecting floppy drives and a joy stick.
3. 3.5 and/or 5.25 floppy drives.
4. A joystick.
5. * A compatible Mac.
6. * The software to run the card.
7. * The manual for the IIe card.
(Note... 2, 3 and 4 are optional but desirable.)
* Refer to the FAQ under Prime Source of Information below for information
on which Macs are compatible and where to obtain the software and manual.

Procedure
'''''''''
1. Install the IIe card in the Mac.
2. If you desire to have one or more ProDOS partitions on the Mac hard
drive:
a. Back up the data from the hard drive.
b. Prepare the hard drive using AppleHD SC Setup. (There is a copy of
this software on the IIe Installer Disk).
1) Initialize the hard drive.
2) Partition the hard drive as desired.
c. Copy the Mac software and data back to the main HFS partition.
3. Alternate plan... use an external hard drive with one or more ProDOS
partitions for your IIe software and data.
4. Another Alternate plan... replace the hard drive on your Mac with a
drive having more capacity.
a. Install the 'new' hard drive in an external case, connect it to the
Mac, then prepare the drive as in 2. above.
b. Copy your Mac software and data to the 'new' drive.
c. Replace the internal drive on your Mac with the 'new' drive.
5. Install the IIe software on the Mac HFS partition using the installer on
the IIe Installer Disk.
6. Install the IIe software and data that you want to use on the ProDOS
partition(s).
Using the 'IIe in a Mac'
''''''''''''''''''''''''
1. Open the Memory Control Panel on the Mac and turn 32-Bit Addressing off.
2. Restart the Mac.
3. Double click on the IIe Startup icon in the root directory of your Mac
startup drive.
4. Press Control/Command/Escape to enter the IIe control panel.
5. Configure the slots and smartport as desired.
6. Click on continue and start using your IIe.
Note:
'''''
With 32-Bit Addressing turned off your Mac will only be able to use 8mb of
RAM. This will be more than adequate while using the IIe. To make the
best use of the other software on your Mac you will have to turn 32-Bit
Addressing back on and restart the computer when you are through using the
IIe.

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.
