Subject: Lots of Questions on Mac <Long>
I'd like to ask the following questions again, and a few new ones:
Please respond by mail. I will summarize to the net later.
** Thank you one and all. I won't tie up **
** the net/mail with individual thanks. **
Questions:
1. According to The Macintosh Bible (I highly recommend this book, no
affiliation) the Mac SE's 256K ROMS contain the system fonts (Chicago
12, Geneva 9,12, Monaco 9) and twelve other fonts for European
languages and Japanese.
a. How can I access the European and Japanese language fonts?
b. How can I make my System use the ROM system fonts?
c. How can I force Font/DA Mover to remove the system fonts from my
System?
If I cannot do these things, than why the <insert expletive> are they
there? I've got 2 drives, and no hard disk, so space is tight!
2. How can I translate an Apple //c black and white HiRes (not
double) screen file to a Macintosh MacPaint file? I know there will
be some distortion, but I'd like to try. I know assembly language
on the //c, and Pascal on the mac. I don't know the file formats.
Is there an Apple File Exchange routine to change Prodos Graphics
into MacPaint Graphics?
3. Does anyone have a list of Mac bomb codes? (i.e. ID=33, etc)
4. Does anyone have a list of abbreviations for ResEdit? (i.e. BNDL,
ALRT, etc.)
5. How do I get a copy of Resedit 1.2b3? Is it copyrighted? If so,
how do I get it from Apple? How do I contact Apple Prog. and Dev.
Assn.?
6. I'd like to get a brief table of virus programs. Can someone help
me with this table?
PROGRAM VER. INIT CDEV PROG CHECK FIXES BRIEF EXPLANATION, NOTES:
Interferon 3.1 XX XX Checks for Hpat?
Ferret 1.1 XX
Vaccine 1.0.1 XX XX XX ?? Rename 'A vaccine'
Virus RX 1.4a1 XX XX ?? Apple, has Auto Scan
GateKeeper 1.0 XX XX Current version is buggy?
Kill Scores XX
ResEdit 1.2b3
Virus Detective Desk Acc.
more???
7. Will DiskInfo DA eject disks someway? (I have 12/16/86)
8. Is there a diagnostic program that checks the Macintosh to see if
It's functioning right?
9. I'm Curious: On MS Word, cursor at top of screen, I move box to
bottom of scroll bar, screen updates, then I just barely hear about 30
chirps similar to what you hear when you scroll the document. These
come after the screen update. What are these? (Not a problem, just
barely noticeable).
10. We have not received AutoBlack 1.5 here. Could someone send it to
me?
11. How do I get a new copy of MacinTalk (I've got 1/1/83)? Is it
copyrighted? If so, how do I get it from Apple?
Thank you one and all.
