I will summarize to the net later. ** Thank you one and all. I won't tie up ** ** the net/mail with individual thanks. ** Questions: 1. According to The Macintosh Bible (I highly recommend this book, no affiliation) the Mac SE's 256K ROMS contain the system fonts (Chicago 12, Geneva 9,12, Monaco 9) and twelve other fonts for European languages and Japanese. a. How can I access the European and Japanese language fonts? b. How can I make my System use the ROM system fonts? c. How can I force Font/DA Mover to remove the system fonts from my System? If I cannot do these things, than why the are they there? I've got 2 drives, and no hard disk, so space is tight! 2. How can I translate an Apple //c black and white HiRes (not double) screen file to a Macintosh MacPaint file? I know there will be some distortion, but I'd like to try. I know assembly language on the //c, and Pascal on the mac. I don't know the file formats. Is there an Apple File Exchange routine to change Prodos Graphics into MacPaint Graphics? 3. Does anyone have a list of Mac bomb codes? (i.e. ID=33, etc) 4. Does anyone have a list of abbreviations for ResEdit? (i.e. BNDL, ALRT, etc.) 5. How do I get a copy of Resedit 1.2b3? Is it copyrighted? If so, how do I get it from Apple? How do I contact Apple Prog. and Dev. Assn.? 6. I'd like to get a brief table of virus programs. Can someone help me with this table? PROGRAM VER. INIT CDEV PROG CHECK FIXES BRIEF EXPLANATION, NOTES: Interferon 3.1 XX XX Checks for Hpat? Ferret 1.1 XX Vaccine 1.0.1 XX XX XX ?? Rename 'A vaccine' Virus RX 1.4a1 XX XX ?? Apple, has Auto Scan GateKeeper 1.0 XX XX Current version is buggy? Kill Scores XX ResEdit 1.2b3 Virus Detective Desk Acc. more??? 7. Will DiskInfo DA eject disks someway? (I have 12/16/86) 8. Is there a diagnostic program that checks the Macintosh to see if It's functioning right? 9. I'm Curious: On MS Word, cursor at top of screen, I move box to bottom of scroll bar, screen updates, then I just barely hear about 30 chirps similar to what you hear when you scroll the document. These come after the screen update. What are these? (Not a problem, just barely noticeable). 10. We have not received AutoBlack 1.5 here. Could someone send it to me? 11. How do I get a new copy of MacinTalk (I've got 1/1/83)? Is it copyrighted? If so, how do I get it from Apple? Thank you one and all. ____________________________________________________________________________ * John Babcock att!occrsh!jdsb * AT&T Network Systems jdsb@occrsh.att.com * Oklahoma City, OK Disclaimer: I speak on my own, not as AT&T.
