Hi,
there is something like that, but since now it's only available in
Germany. The guy, who wrote that stuff, has developed many of these
utilities to convert anything to anything. Here is his address:
API-Soft
Andreas Pirner
Bundesallee 56
1000 Berlin 31
Germany
All of his utils cost about DM 50.- to DM 100.- ( 1 US$ is DM 1.85 )
Bye....Michael

so far as I know, the ".img" files are not bound to any resolution, they
are just plain bitmapfiles which also can be with colorinformation.

the proper thing to do for opening dialoges is:
form_center(dialog,&x,&y,&w,&h);
to keep big screen owners happy
form_dial(FDM_START,x,y,w,h,x,y,w,h);
to save the screen area
objc_draw(dialog,0,0,x,y,w,h)
to draw the object
ret = form_do(dialog,0)
to handle the dialog
form_dial(FDM_START,x,y,w,h,x,y,w,h);
to restore screen area
The last call restores only the desktop under the dialog, any windows under it
are updated by the owning application when it reseves the WM_REDRAW message
(Ofcourse your application should listen to incoming message through a
evnt_multi loop). If you did not send your VDI output to a window you don't get
a WM_REDRAW message and should have saved the screen area with
vro_cpyfm function and restore it in the same manner

Again, many thanks for the reply! At this point I think that's
pretty much what I have. It's the "vro_cpyfm()" call that's messing
up. I haven't looked at it today though.

I always thought we needed GDOS installed to make an effective call to
v_opnwk(). I've never programmed GDOS, but most of the books that claim
v_opnwk() to be useless were written before the advent of GDOS itself. I
don't know about whether it allows more than one workstation open per device,
but I'm sure Allan Pratt or K. Bad could point everyone in the right direction

Didot LineArt is distributed by 3K-Computer in Germany. I don't know, if
they have a US-division, but they had some contacts to ATARI USA.
Their german address is:
3KComputerbild GmbH
Sassenfeld 71
4054 Nettetal 1
Fax ++49 2153 89291
Germany
Didot LineArt has blown up since last year. When i first came out, it only
was a Font-Editor, now it's a complete DTP-Application. You shouldn't wonder
about the price. Sorry, but I don't know it exactly.
Bye.....Michael

Subject: GCC question
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
This is probably a silly question, but I've installed GCC on my
system and can't get it to compile anything, so I'll ask anyway.
The problem is how it is treating TOS filenames. If I try to compile
using a command such as
gcc -O -c test.c
then it will not see the file. If, on the other hand, I try to compile
with
gcc -O -c TEST.C
then it DOES see the file, but it doesn't seem to know what to do with
the .C extender, so no actual compilation takes place.
Is there a switch or an environment variable I can use to correct this?
Thanks in advance,
Michael Kieras

Well there is this PC thing that is also available for the Atari that
uses the Cartridge Port, I think that the PC one uses the Printer Port,
gives about 10 megabytes transfer rate and the same on the Atari.
It is called Lantech ??, is this the correct name..
But please correct me on this as I have only heared about this 3rd hand

Subject: Help for an old, handicapped ST?
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
My ancient and revered 520 has a problem. Its serial port has partially
died; it can send but not receive characters. To give you an idea of
how old this machine is, it started out with a single-sided external floppy.
It now has an external double-sided floppy, an 80 meg hard drive, and a
1/2.5/4 meg RAM board from Tech Specialties (currently at 2.5 meg).
The serial port is important to me, as it's how I do my backups.
I'm trying to find the cheapest way of fixing this mess. The options I've
thought of are:
Get the old machine fixed (but where? and how much? and how long?).
Buy another used ST; I'd only do this if I could transfer my RAM board
to it. Anybody got an old but working machine they want to unload?
Buy a new ST. As I really need the big RAM for desktop publishing, I'd
probably go for a Mega 2.
Give in and buy a more mainstream machine (but what about my old files? and
besides the new Apple/IBM alliance makes my skin crawl...).
Anybody else ever have a serial port hardware problem? Did you solve it?
Anyone have a machine to sell?
Please respond via mail, as I'm 200 messages behind in this newsgroup.

It's archived with ARC 6.02, which handles subdirectories.

To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
My first PTC1426 was way out of adjustment, firstly it was completely out of
focus, secondly as you turned down the brightness the white turned to purple!
As you may have guessed, I got it replaced.
The new one is much much better (maybe Atari had installed some sort of
quality control by the time this one was made, or was it just luck that
the components were in the right positions? :-)).
The quality of the display is up to that, if not better than, most multisyncs
I've seen, though I wouldn't call the Atari monitor a multisync as it can't
handle either 50Hz or 70Hz sync, just 60Hz! (There is a switch on the back
for switching between TT and IBM-PC VGA modes, but all that does is alter the
width of the picture)
My conclusion, the PTC1426 is a good monitor for the TT (even in Mono, Frank)
as long as you don't mind paying way over the odds so that the monitor fits
nicely on the TT, and you get one which has actually been adjusted!
