Message-ID: <8911300402.AA03529@jade.berkeley.edu> Date: 30 Nov 89 00:01:40 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Lines: 34 I will ask a few questions here to try and save some time: 1) What are people with large hard disks using to de-fragment their disks? BAD disk optimiser won't work for me because it would require that I have 3 megs RAM just to optimize my 155 meg drive. A serious limitation. Any other suggestions? (besides a complete backup and restore I mean) 2) Has anyone tried out the commercial terminal program VTX On-line by MichTron? 3) Has anyone tried the latest Perfectsound ver 3 hardware? The older version just does not quite cut it 4) Does anyone have suggestions about what would be the fastest, most flexible mandelbrot generator? I would like to give it a batch of coordinates, and have it produce for me several 640x200 16 color IFF pics. 5) IF I wanted to compile a bunch of IFF pics into an animation in the ANIM format, what would I need ? (would MakeAnim suffice?) 6) Say I wanted to do some tilting of iff pics for this animation, as well as wraping them around globes, ect, before compliling them into the animation. What software would I need for this? Please reply DIRECT, as certain troublesome links keep trashing my newsgroup feed. (I am currently suffering from newsgroup withdrawl) Thanks in advance... +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Dennis Gorrie 'Chain-Saw Tag... | |GORRIEDE AT UREGINA1.BITNET Try It, You'll Like It!'| +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
