I've spent the weekend fiddling with it and networking it to a friends Sun. But I've come across a few questions about it: 1) Does anyone know of a patch or a replacement for the braindead uucpd on 1.0? Is this problem fixed in 2.0? (uucpd will not connect a uucico process properly to port 540) 2) Is there anyway to autolaunch mail when you login, but have it remain hidden? Also is there anyway to have it prefix lines from included messages for replies. (e.g. put a '>' in front of each line) 3) Is there any program out there to change Sun sound files to NeXT .snd files? 4) Does anyone have any technical data on the DSP chip? I'm interested in trying to build my own input device for recording sound. Thanks in advance, - Dave -- Dave Hale ddh@orage.mi.org - Can alse accept NeXT mail at this address. ddh@ombrage.mi.org - Regular mail only, please.
