-> when it comes to the control of a game, which would everyone rather do,
|
|
-> go through the hassles of dealing with the joystick problem,
|
|
-> or forego the hassle of the joystick and use the keyboard for control,
|
|
-> even though using the keyboard for control causes a noticable drop in
|
|
-> game control response time?
|
|
|
|
I personally would prefer to go through the hassle of building an
|
|
extender cable (or even have someone who knows what they're doing build
|
|
it for me) and play with the joystick. Since a standard backplane does
|
|
not have most of its openings large enough to use a round joystick plug,
|
|
and since the MM/1 HAS a joystick port, I'd rather jump through hoops to
|
|
get the port to work rather than have yet another portion of my machine
|
|
unuseable. Malcolm

Clyde, I can't promise to fill all orders outstanding with IMS, but
|
|
will try to help Paul fill them. Note that I'm not buying the company,
|
|
but rights to the computer. The best way I can think of to speed
|
|
delivery is for reps to buy at least one or two machines and keep them
|
|
in stock. I need to show some FIRM orders to my bankers.

If you have a copy of
|
|
|
|
PERSONAL ENGINEERING & INSTRUMENTATION NEWS
|
|
|
|
look on pages 28 - 29. Microware has a blurb on the NEW OS9 V3.0 and the
|
|
Atomic OS9 microkernel.

Mentioning graphics and BBS programs,
|
|
Is anybody working on the RIP graphics protocol for _any_ OSK
|
|
machine? The standards for it are widely distributed, and lots of BBSs
|
|
are moving to it as a preferred display.
|
|
Including RIP in a com program might even lead to other Termcap
|
|
entries and enable spiffier multiuser applications.
|
|
Could a "windowing" program make use of RIP for remote shell
|
|
users?
|
|
|
|
(On an old but continuing question:)
|
|
Does anybody have a functioning vanilla-OSK Usenet newsgroup &
|
|
uucp email program functioning as either leaf or node?
|
|
The programmer I had working on porting the Waffle BBS to OSK
|
|
gave up, and the arrangements with the author, Thomas Dell, to
|
|
distribute binaries would have been extreemly complicated anyway, but
|
|
even an instruction file on how to modify and compile Waffle into OSK
|
|
could put a BUNCH of MM/1's (and other OSK machines) onto the sitemaps.

Clyde,
|
|
Perhaps the comprehensive mailer 'binkley' includes a internet
|
|
function. Ask John A Donaldson who is working on the MM/1 port of the
|
|
FIDO mailer binkley.
