I have 2 questions to ask

1) Can anyone give me the vertical and horizontal scan rates for a Hercules
compatible monitor and also its pin-out at the "D: end. I want to try and
modify it for use with a Mac plus (~61 Hz V sync, ~17kHz Hsync)

2) I have a number of small one evening circuits that I would like to post
if anyone is interested but I don't know what format would be most suited
to posting. Some have layouts while others are just track-board. I think
I can generate HPGL and Postscript and can generate Pict (for a mac), TIFF
and GIFF (wot!! you haven't got a GIFF viewer given the traffic on a.s.p)
and may be able to generate other formats. I could also do ASCII for the
simple circuits.
What's your preference

Thanks in advance.

Dave
