[Sorry about the previous message but my stupid news software just decided
that it did not like my five line signature]
I am a fairly new Mac owner and have a few questions:
1. Does anyone (like from Apple) know if the new Multifinder/System
will fix the problem with the second internal floppy on
the SE (drive is deselected too much)
2. Does anyone use dot matrix printers other than the IMagewriter.
The specific case I have in mind is something like an Epson.
I would like to find a printer driver that would do both
text and graphics (probably by bitmap drop) with
little/no compatability problem. (so, I'm an optimist)
3. Has anyone solved the game "Radical Castle" that is in either
the ngp or sumex archives as "adventure.hqx"? I have
the oracle and simply need to get back. How do I get
into the hacker's room? Can I kill the dragon? Is there
something needed from the dungeon section?
4. I !!! LOVE !!! Lightspeed Pascal. Fantastic program. Just
one question. Is there a Lightspeed Ada in the future?
How far? If not, I was thinking of writing an Ada compiler
for the Mac and really like the Lightspeed user interface.
Anybody at Think, Inc. want to make a deal?
That's all for now. I can assure you I will return with more questions
as soon as the find their way back into my mind.
