It's a place called Computer Recyclers and it has tons of old PC parts -- stuff

like 8-bit

MFM controllers for the XT (Real hard to find nowadays). They list the

Terry, leave a msg for Marty and ask for the number to Fox Electronics. They
|
|
also recycle parts... they are a chip pulling house! They like to move
|
|
inventory faster than some, but you need to know the part number you're looking
|
|
for and call for availability, as they don't print a regular catalog- inventory
|
|
changes to fast and to of
|
|
ten! But the prices you'll get are worth the call.

Would you mind writing up a little file on how to get around the Internet,
|

{especially the CoCo and OS-9 areas? You have it fresh in your mind.. about
|
|
what a beginner goes through.. and that's what I need for a short article!

RE: internet & ftp (Re: Msg 86556)
|
|
From: WDTV5 To: DSRTFOX
|
|
|
|
Ok, grab this!
|
|
1. First you must have Internet access via delphi.
|
|
2. Then, from the root directory of delphi, where you can see the "internet
|
|
services" entry in the menu, enter "internet" wo the quotes.
|
|
3. When the internet menu comes up, type "ftp" w/o the quotes.
|
|
4. The prompt will change to "FTP>" and it will ask you for your destination,
|
|
enter it as you see it listed, no quotes, the old cabralas site for instance
|
|
is now chestnut.cs.wisc.edu, enter the site name in lowercase as here.
|
|
5. When it connects, FTP will assume a default name of anonymous and will
|
|
accept the default of your delphi handle + @delphi.com as a password, all
|
|
you have to do is hit the enter key to have it accept those defaults.
|
|
6. Once into the remote site, I do a 'dir' no quotes, in lowercase.
|
|
This will show you the present directory's contents and perms.
|
|
7. I was able to 'cd pub' ok, but found from there on that any deeper cd's
|
|
would have to be in the form (quotes included) of cd "COCO3".
|
|
8. once there, or anyplace else you might want to go up the directory tree,
|
|
do another 'dir' to see whats there, and either cd "NEWDIR" to go up one,
|
|
or cd .. to back out, just as if it was an os9 system. In this present
|
|
case, I did a cd "MISC", then another dir to find the file I was interested
|
|
in, ansifront010.lzh.
|
|
9. to move this file to your delphi workspace, first type (in uppercase)
|
|
BINARY. enter of course. Wait till the prompt comes back alltho it may be
|
|
@
|
|
that the sites opsys can stack the commands, I did see it do that once.
|
|
10. now type GET filename(enter). FTP will report as it has before but I've
|
|
not noted here, that a path has been opened but there will be no more
|
|
response from FTP until the file has been moved to your workspace here.
|
|
11. Once that has been done, you can either resume your explorations of
|
|
the remote system, or sign off with the usual "bye"(enter) no quotes.
|
|
12. that will return you to the internet prompt here on delphi, hit the
|
|
usual control z to get out of that, go to your workspace and type zdow.
|
|
13. thats all folks, you all know the rest of how to dld a file from
|
|
here. BTW, the 010 version of ansifront has some bugfixes and improvements
|
|
over 0_9. Such as making a hashed name vs real name file so's you can
|
|
see what names didn't make it to the linker stage, causeing r.link to
|
|
upchuck and abort.
|
|
Dress this up a bit, see the current issue of "ONLINE ACCESS" for a few
|
|
more blow by blow accounts of how to "Internet". Chers, Gene Heskett

RE: internet & ftp (Re: Msg 86559)
|
|
From: JOHNBAER To: WDTV5
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gene, and others..
|
|
|
|
A few `tips' I found on my way and would like to pass around.
|
|
|
|
> 9. to move this file to your delphi workspace, first type (in uppercase)
|
|
> BINARY. enter of course.
|
|
|
|
BINARY can also be typed in lower case without the quotes here on
|
|
Delphi.
|
|
|
|
> 10. now type GET filename(enter).
|
|
|
|
Remember that Delphi is a VAX system. A single `dot' is needed in a
|
|
filename. So, if you see a filename like: big.utility.UPDATE.lzh
|
|
and want to `get' this, try it like this..
|
|
|
|
get "big.utility.UPDATE.lzh" stuff.lzh
|
|
|
|
Just quote the filename as you see it, and shorten it to something
|
|
you will remember with just one `dot' between the filename and extension.
|
|
Delphi will send the string you quoted, and use the second part as the
|
|
filename for your workspace for you to download. Rename it to what you
|
|
want on your home computer.
|
|
|
|
I've been doing this for a while now, and assumed other people knew
|
|
how to do this <g>. Just wanted to share what I had to learn.

Announcement
|
|
From: COLORSYSTEMS To: ALL
|
|
|
|
Announcing! X10 Master Control Program for OSK and KWindows!
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
Dual user selectable interfaces. One is the "standard" K-Windows Menu
|
|
Style interface. It has a menu bar of functions functions and a "toolbar"
|
|
of quick action buttons. The other interface is in a "popup" style window
|
|
which is "on top of" the window it was created on and only contains buttons
|
|
for quick action. It is movable and resizable.
|
|
|
|
With the single click of your mouse you can now turn a light on or off.
|
|
With an additional mouse drag of a slide bar you can dim a light to any
|
|
of 16 discrete levels. With just a few more mouse clicks these actions
|
|
can be performed on up to 16 remote modules at the same time. With menu
|
|
bar functions you can access all modules available from you X10 Powerhouse
|
|
Controller, a total of 256 different remote modules, with direct commands
|
|
which are executed immediately or with programmed events which occur at the
|
|
date, day and time you specify.
|
|
|
|
Store pre-programmed commands to turn units on or off or dimmed on any
|
|
date and time or on repetative times, like at 4PM every Tuesday. You can
|
|
even have the X10 vary the time just slightly each repetition to give
|
|
would be robbers the illusion of non-computer control.
|
|
|
|
You can save your configuration of known modules and current X10 program
|
|
memory to a disk file for later recovery after a power failure and you
|
|
were caught without a good battery! Access all other functions on the X10
|
|
like, display current base house code, display current date and time and
|
|
even run an X10 diagnostic on the X10 controller via other menu bar functions,
|
|
all using full mouse for input. Remote Module Identification is one of the
|
|
only times you need to touch your keyboard while using the X10 Master Control
|
|
Program from ColorSystems!
|
|
|
|
X10 Master Control Program will be available for delivery at the upcoming
|
|
Chicago CoCoFest at a special introductory price. After the 'fest it will
|
|
be available for mail order for a slightly higher cost.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features of the X10 Powerhouse Controller:
|
|
|
|
Access remote modules which are fully compatable with the line of "Plug 'n'
|
|
Power" modules available at Radio Shack.
|
|
|
|
Eight on/off rocker switches control units 1-8 for the currently selected
|
|
base housecode.
|
|
|
|
Access up to 256 modules with one controller. (Sixteen units for sixteen
|
|
housecodes, access must be either with computer interface or pre-programmed
|
|
event to act on any module outside the range of the keypad or in a housecode
|
|
different from the controller's current base housecode.)
|
|
|
|
Store up to 128 pre-programmed events.
|
|
|
|
Once programmed, may be detached from the computer, but while connected,
|
|
pre-programmed events and events initiated via the on board rocker switches
|
|
are reported back to the computer interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At Chicago I will have a limited supply of brand new X10 controllers and
|
|
assorted Plug 'n' Power modules and will be offering them at a special price
|
|
when purchased with the X10 Master Control Program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you would like to get pricing and ordering information just drop me a line
|
|
in private Email.

His # is 606-787-5783 ( I think ). If this doesn't get him, get back
|
|
to me. It would probably be best to call him at night after maybe 6PM
|
|
Eastern time - but not _TOO_ late <G>.

|
|

|
|
