I know about FTPing to ISIB and similiar places but do not know where net.sourcesis located or how to get to it. Any help from you would be appreciated since I have written my own program for the IBM-PC that does a presumably similiar job.

LMiller, if you're out there, please phone, write, or send your USPO address. Thanks. -- Michael Harris MHarris @ BBNA BBN Laboratories 10 Fawcett Street Cambridge, MA 02238 617-497-3794 ------------------------------ Date: 9 Sep 85 13:38:14 PDT (Monday) Subject: Frank Crow's Flexible Image Generation Environment From: Wax.OsbuSouth@Xerox.ARPA I am sending this to Info-Graphics because my mail system will not let me send to turtlevax!ken@DECWRL.ARPA. I noticed your message in Info-Graphics. Since I cannot locate net.sources myself but I can get at [ISIB]mumble via FTP and other similar sources, would it be possible to send me an exact address (eg. ISIB...) so that I could fetch the appropriate software (hopefully in C).

Decvax!mcnc!unccvax!dsi@Berkeley (Dataspan Inc) replys with a discussion on why it is difficult to overlay IBM graphics on VCR video. This quite true because the IBM PC cannot GENLOC to external video like DEC's IVIS. If you really want to keep that IBM PC but want overlay ability then the cheap and easy thing to do is dump the IBM graphic boards and buy some boards that can GENLOC to external video sync. The computer based training industry use graphics overlay systems with videodisc players for interactive video systems. This market has sparked a number of startup companies to manufacture inexpensive genloc-overlay boards for a number of PCs. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Sep 85 16:56:27 cdt From: minkoff@anl-mcs (Mike Minkoff) Subject: sun graphics software Has anyone heard of the Heiroglyph product from Prescience, Inc. If so I'd appreciate hearing comments about the software and a lead to the location and telephone number of Prescience. Apparently its a graphics workstation package for the Sun supporting GKS and Postscript.

I believe I have tracked down the source of this problem. (It appears that there was an inappropriate mail forwarding address somewhere at UC Berkeley). By the time you read this, they should have solved their mailer problems. Info-Graphics readers are reminded that this Digest runs fully automated. There is no digest moderator scanning and editing the articles you submit. This has the disadvantage that problems like the mail forwarding bug we have been suffering from can occur. But it also offers the advantage of ensuring that the list is delivered faithfully each weekend even if I happen to be away for several weeks, as was the case for most of September (astute Info-Graphics readers will recall that I announced this absence in the Digest a month ago). Your comments on the operation of the list and ways it can be improved are always welcome. Please remember to send them to the "-REQUEST" address where I will personally receive them, not to "Info-Graphics" (from which address they will be automatically remailed without my seeing them first).
