Message-ID: Date: 15 Jan 91 14:41:06 GMT Sender: news@uhura.cc.rochester.edu Distribution: comp Organization: The Institute of Optics, University of Rochester Lines: 17 I am trying to access the lattitude and longitude information that is used by the Map cdev. I assumed that it is stored in parameter RAM, based partly on the fact that the MacEnvy system configuration cdev suggests that this is so. There are some reserved (as of IM2) bits in the fields that make up the PRAM record, but these don't seem to change when the lattitude & longitude are changed with the Map cdev. I can't find anything in the Map cdev itself where this info might be kept. Anyway, even if the Map cdev is trashed, MacEnvy still shows the same coordinates. I have looked in IM and the tech notes for clues but haven't found anything. Any clues?
