Subject: About Archivist 4.1
Hello Gordon
I just sent a memo to Mr. Terrence Phillips about his problem launching the SEA
application on his Centris 650. My best bet is that he does not have the
HyperCard 2.1 program on one of his drives.
Just to experiment the ease of use and the power of the Archivist, I attached
to this memo an Archivist file named Digest # 161 to 174 thus containing more
than a dozen of this goodies I receive each day. Just imagine a full month or a
full year of the Digest in a single Archivist file. Looking for something is
quite simple.
I would like your comments on this and maybe include this file in the billboard
just to give an idea of what an electronic binder can look like. You can change
the name of the binder if you decide to put it into the SUMEX billboard.
Cheers!

Second upload following a local power failure!
Hello Gordon
Please find inclosed with this memo, Archivist version 4.1
Version 4.0, which have been uploaded last week, still contained a dialog in
French and part of the interface was also in French.
Version 4.1 is in full English and a bit quicker. Could you rename the Help
file 4.0 to Archivist 4.1 infos. This last file is already in the directory.
The Archivist is in continuous development so you can expect new versions in
the future.
Many thanks.

Subject: Ars Magna II
--========================_7523546==_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Enclosed is a new version of Ars Magna called Ars Magna II. I recomplied
Mike Morton's ars.c code to use think's console library. This makes it a
little more compatible but its still just a C program with command line
interface.
I gave it a new signature and icon to keep it separate for the other version.
I did this because someone here needed to use ars magna and the old version
would trash his screen. Hopefully some one will give it a good interface
and make it a real mac program. I just don't have the time.

#### BINHEX ascii-from-mac-progs.hqx ****
From: rosenberg@po.MIT.EDU
Subject: ASCII images of formatted pages (C)
Date: Mon, 15 Mar 93 18:36:51 EST
A thread dealing with producing a formatted TEXT file from
(arbitrary) Macintosh programs appeared in some recent issues of
Info-Mac Digest. The messages making up this thread had the titles:
"ASCII images of formatted pages",
"Document formatting query",
"Problems Producing RFCs",
"Problems producing RFDs (c)",
"Printing to ASCII files"
"RFC Text formatting", and
"WANT Word output to Internet ASCII".
The attached binhexed self-expanding archive contains:
1. "RFC Format dialog" which is a chronology of all the messages
(that I've seen) from the thread (including both those posted to
Info-Mac Digest and those sent directly to me), and my comments
and suggestions based on that discussion. Basically, I recommend
the creation of a new Print2Pict extension (which I call the
"ASCII Page Image" extension) and I propose some specifications
for its operation.
2. a copy of the text version of RFC 1111 as FTPed from NIC.DDN.MIL.
3. a copy of RFC 1111 as edited (by me) to make it a Microsoft Word
document.

Same here (I don't know what happened; the copy I uploaded was good,
but it got smashed in transit).
[Previous announcement]
The attached BinHex file contains a StuffIt Deluxe archive which in
turn contains an updater which will update the original 2.5 release of
BBEdit into the current 2.5.2 revision. (If you have version 2.5.1, do
not use this updater; a separate one is being posted).
This updater is also available for anonymous FTP from world.std.com,

Subject: BBEdit 2.5.2 Demo
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 1993 23:29:57 -0400 (EDT)
The attached StuffIt Deluxe archive contains a demo version of the
latest maintenance release of BBEdit 2.5, the popular text editor
for use by programmers, on-line service users, and anyone else who
needs to search and edit plain text files.
This demo version gives potential users the ability to evaluate
BBEdit's capabilities, including THINK C/Symantec C++ 6.0 support, MPW
ToolServer support, integrated translation of foreign file formats via
the Claris XTND system, disk directory browsers, and more.

Subject: BBEdit 2.5.2->2.5.3 Updater
Date: Sat, 30 Oct 1993 01:21:44 -0400 (EDT)
The recently released 2.5.2 maintenance version of BBEdit has a bug in
it which renders it incapable of working with THINK C projects for
browsing and searching. This bug was the result of a source-management
problem (i.e. a screwup on my part) when creating the shipping build.
The bug is nondestructive; BBEdit will not crash due to it, and no
data will be lost or corrupted.
The symptoms are that garbage is displayed in the project browser
window when opening a file, and attempts to search THINK C projects
will result in numerous file system error messages.
This bug does not affect any other part of BBEdit's functionality, and
specifically does not affect BBEdit's ability to function as the
external editor for THINK C/Symantec C++ 6.0.
If you have previously updated your 2.5 or 2.5.1 version to 2.5.2,
the attached updater will turn your 2.5.2 version into 2.5.3.
If you recently received a finished-goods BBEdit package with 2.5.2 on
the distribution disk, we will automatically send you an updater disk,
and it should arrive by the end of next week (at the latest). You can
make use of the attached updater if you don't wish to wait for the
floppy to arrive.
This updater is also available immediately for anonymous FTP from
world.std.com, in /ftp/pub/bbedit.
We at Bare-Bones Software regret any inconvenience this bug may have
caused, and we appreciate your continued support and consideration.
Archive Maintainers: this updater does -not- replace any other BBEdit
patchers.

From: sti@cs.hut.fi (Sami-Jaakko Tikka)
Subject: Change Charset, a BBEdit external
Hello!
This is my first posting of Macintosh software. I hope everything that is
required is here...
Change Charset is an BBEdit external which allows one to convert characters
from/to the Macintosh charset to/from ISO-Latin-1 and to/from 7-bit
Scandinavian (which is still largely used in Scandinavian unix machines!).
This probably makes Change Charset interesting for Europeans only. Still,
it never hurts to remind the English-speaking ASCII-world that there are
languages which DO need more than 7-bit characters ;-)
The conversion can be done in place, to a new window or the converted text
can be copied to the clipboard. If there's a selection, Change Charset
will act on the selection, otherwise it will process the whole window.
This program can be freely copied for non-commercial purposes.
I can be reached by email at Sami.Tikka@hut.fi

(many thanks).
Fixed features are:
- the comment extension now puts a --> at the end of
commented line, not just >
- the header extension closes headers withn </Hn>, not </H>
And a new feature:
- the specials translation extension now gives you two choices:
translating eight bit characters and/or "special" characters
(<, >, &, and ") that must be quoted. Please note that you
should translate these special characters *before* inserting
any HTML tag that uses them.

Sort Lines (version 1.0, (c)1993, Carl B. Burch)
This BBEdit extension adds to BBEdit the ability to sort lines, much
like the Unix utility "sort", with some options from "sort":
* Ignoring each line's first n characters,
* Sorting in reverse,
* Removing duplicate lines,
* Ignoring the lines' leading white space, and
* Folding uppercase to lowercase.
This program is free and may be distributed freely provided that the
information file accompanies it.

Subject: BBEdit Extensions (Insert Column & Spaces to Tabs)
This is an update to the two extensions that I posted earlier.
(a bug in Spaces to tabs)
Please replace the ones in the archives with this file. I'm including sources
for the two extensions also.
In keeping with the other extensions, these are freeware so enjoy.
----------------------------------------------------------
Here are two extensions for BBEdit that I needed for processing some
mainframe data for importing into a database.
"Insert Column" puts a tab at the current insertion point in every line of the
file.
"Spaces to tabs" replaces all spaces with a tab character.
I don't know where to send the source to, so I just upload these as is.
After being spoiled by using McSink, I won't be truly happy with bbedit
until it contains all the features of Mcsink. :-)
Two down, two dozen more to go...

encloses if Version 1.21.
Revisions 1.2.1:
* Change all NewHandle() calls to use BBEdit's callback-Allocate() calls.
* Free memory allocated when error occures when unable to allocating
speech channel.
* #ifdef StackDebug code to check stack space problem (OS Error 28).
>I can't get your Speaking BBEdit to work with BBEdit Lite 2.3.1.
I have fix the problems with error code -244 - voice not available
(I now use the 1st voice if female voice is not available).
error code -240 is just that Speech manager is not installed or you have
not restarted since you installed it.
error code -241 is synth can't open up for some reason - memory?
NOTE: I have been unable to fix the following problems:
1) Due to some unknow reason the sound manger requires more stack space
than is available with BBEdit This causes system crashes with error ID 28 -
stack has entered the application heap.
Results of my debugging last night:
- initial stack space is around 23,000 bytes when the module is first called,
- as text to sound is initially being processed the stack space goes down
to less then 4000 bytes,
(monitored via Speech Manager's Word callback routine).
- once the sound is playing the stack space goes back up to 23,000 bytes,
if it gets that far.
(My guess is Async interrupt routine used by speech manager is using
lot's of stack space).
As a result, I don't know if I will be able to fix it, does anyone know how
to fix it?
2) The callback routine that allows me to hilight the word currently being
spoken does not update the screen if it has to scroll the text into the
window. The only way I was able to force an update is to do a cut/paste
operation to the file!
I have try it with BBEdit V2.2.1 and BBEdit Lite V2.3.1 same bugs on LC
III's (System 7.1, 12M RAM) and Macintosh IIci (System 7.0.1, 8M ram).
The Centris 650 (System 7.1 + AppleScript, 24M RAM) - Stack bug does not
show up on the Centris 650 but the usage is still high and dangerlessly
low.
I will try to find time to create a TeachText type XTND capable program for
speaking word processing files in the next few weeks. If you know how to
fix the program, let me know, I have included the source code with some
#ifdef around stack debugging code. Enclosed is v1.21.
>How do you install it?
You place the file "Speaking" into the BBEDit extension folder and restart
BBEdit, the modules names will appear under the "Extensions" menu in
BBEdit.
> Do you paste the resources into the application with ResEdit?
no... no resEdit is not needed.

program.
Hence, Speak Sentences and Speaking my first BBEdit module.
1) Speak Sentences
Simple extension that use Apple's new speach manager to 'Talk' the
selected text.
2) Speaking
An extensiont that use Apple's new speach manager to 'Talk' the
selected text.
The use is presented with a dialog box with some limited control over how
text is spoken.
* You can ask it to spell the text or speak the text.
* You can use the Talk, Stop, Pause, and Continue buttons to control and
replay the text.
* The exit button is used to return to BBEdit.
As time permits I will add the 'standard missing features' selecting voice,
rate and pitch.

BeachText is a DA TextEditor which allows to create and edit the
TeachText file with picture easily. It also allows egrep etc.
It can also deal with Japanese, and create a text file longer
than 32k.
Documentation is in Japanese only, but for most part, the operation
of the BeachText should be quite straight forward. At least,
I have never read them but I had no trouble^_^
This is freeware and is free to redistribute as long as you

Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1993 14:32:45 -0500
Bibliography Manager II is a HyperCard application that was created to
help researchers and authors keep track of and store information about
bibliographic references, and to produce Bibliography or Literature Cited
sections for papers. This version (2.0) requires HyperCard v. 2.1 to run,
and is shareware.
The reference card for each bibliographic entry has separate fields
for Author, Date, Title, Source, Volume, Pages, Keywords, and Notes, along
with places to indicate whether you have a copy of the item and how it is
filed. You can do "quick searches" for text in individual fields, or use
HyperCard's card marking abilities to identify and work with only a subset
of the entries in the stack. You can also create and save custom text
import and export formats, so that you can import references from text
files of varying formats, and can create custom bibliography lists to match
the format required by your professor or publisher. The program can also
store a list of abbreviations for journal names that is cross-referenced to
the names on the reference cards, allowing you to use either full names or
abbreviations when you create bibliography lists. You can create as many
different bibliography stacks as you wish, and exchange bibliographic
entries, import and export formats, and journal abbreviation lists among
them. There is also an on-line help facility.
Since I designed this stack for myself and my colleagues in science,
and am not familiar with all the protocols for literature cataloging and
referencing in other areas of study, it may not suit everyone's purpose,
but I hope that it can be a useful tool for those who want to keep track of
literature references and who need to create reference lists when they
write papers.

"ButtonPad is an improved version of the NotePad desk accessory that comes
with the Macintosh. ButtonPad lets you categorize your notes into up to
eight separate "Quick Access" pads that can be quickly accessed via push
buttons. Each pad can be up to 32K in size. This makes ButtonPad ideal
for storage of text that is frequently accessed such as telephone numbers,
customer information, etc. The quick access push buttons augment the
normal open, select, close dialog procedures. You may assign your own
labels to each push button and the name of the pad file to be retrieved.
The pads are automatically saved if modified. In addition to the quick
access pads, you may also access any text file via the normal open command.
There is a find command to access specific information, a variable line
sort command, and tools for cleaning up text files such as replacing spaces
with tabs. ButtonPad will also dial the phone via tones or modem for phone
numbers found in the current line. You can print out your pads, adjusted
to fit pocket organizers. ButtonPad is a cross between standard notepad,
minieditor, and telephone dialer/index card type applications."

This is a collection Chinese literature works. It is also a set of HyperCard
stacks for you to organize, edit-view, or get to a particular entry very
easily, or let you show off to your friends of this great Chinese treasure :-)
These 20 or more stacks contain the poems or posting
from recent postings on "Chinese Poem Exchange and Discussion List"
(CHPOEM-L@UBVM.cc.buffalo.edu), or from various collection.
The basic thing these stacks can do is to edit, input - output text file,
dump the while stack as text file (which can be read in to rebuild
the entire stack. or read by PC users), and indexing. i.e.,
(1) edit Chinese text;
(2) output it a text file, for you to post or used as backup, or in my
favorate way: let it scroll on the screen when the Mac is idling (by
AfterDark Scroll module).
(3) read in a text file.
(4) Create index for the whole collection, thus you can jump to a
particular poem just by a click.
(5) If I add more feature in the future version of this stack, you can
dump out your old collection into text, then read it back it into a new
stack template to rebuild a new collection.
etc. (see the ChineseCollection.readme file for detail.)
You should have the Chinese System or Chinese Script installed in your
Macintosh to use this stack.

Dale's PostScript Macros for Nisus version 1.2
(replaces ver. 1.1.1)
Here is version 1.2 of my PostScript Macros for Nisus. The
macros implement postscript "backdrops" consisting of 72 or 100-point
type printed diagonally in light grey over the document. The macros
can be used to print backdrop text on just the first page or on
mulitple pages in a document. More than one backdrop can
be used in the same document. Macros for printing "PRELIMINARY",
"CONIFIDENTIAL", "REVISED" (with date & time), or any dialog-input
string are provided, along with a macro to remove all PostScript
code from a document.
There is also a new PS macro designed to create borders for slides
or overheads produced in Nisus. The borders contain the presentation
title, author's name, and date/company.
I also included the "raw" PostScript code for those that do not own
Nisus but still wish to insert backdrops or overhead frames. Most word
processors can use the PostScript Escape font to insert the PS code.
Archive contains the required PostScript Escape font.
Freeware/E-mail-ware
Version history:
1.2: Rewrote all the backdrop macros to make them easier to localize for
paper other than US letter. It is also easier to change fonts etc.
without having to rework the macro (i.e. things should still be
centered if you change point sizes or font types).
Added a new macro (RRect frame) that places a rounded rectangle border
complete with the presentation title, author's name, and date/company.
This macro is designed to be used in landscape mode to create slides or
overheads for presentations.
Included text versions of the PS code for PS hackers or those that do
not own Nisus.
1.1.1: Put terse option back onto Remove psBackdrops (accidently removed in
version 1.1) so macro doesn't abort. Sorry for the slip-up.
1.1: Made it easier to modify the text printed by the macros and improved
the centering of dialog-entered text.
1.0: Initial release
COMMING SOON:
I am still working on a way to get rid of the wasted "white space"
that the invisible PS code leaves in Nisus.

Subject: dataman.2.0.2.hqx, a wonderful utility
Many times you can use the find-and-replace function of your software
to make your changes. But sometimes your changes -- even though similar --
cannot be expressed as "find this, replace that." Sometimes what you replace
depends on what you find. Sometimes you want to do other things than
replace, other things than find. And sometimes you have to make the same
changes to many documents.
You can give DataMan instructions in any order. The instructions are
familiar dialog-like objects that scroll in a window; they can be saved
between sessions so that you never have to enter them again. And you can
create menu items for these scripts of instructions, with keyboard shortcuts.
Need to change all-uppercase to uppercase-and-lowercase often? Press
command-0 for Smart Lowercase, one of several dozen pre-written scripts
accompanying the application.
One strength of DataMan is symbolization. You can describe text using
symbols, just like you can use the symbol ^p for carriage return in other
software. Only DataMan understands many, many more symbols -- both specific
like ^p, and wild-cards like ^aPrice, which matches any price. You can
redefine wild-cards and create new ones. With symbols you could, for example,
find any date and replace it with the date found plus one day. Since so many
options are available, DataMan provides you with a symbol-editing dialog.
An example in which DataMan saved me hours: I Was working on a 40-page
cross-index to a large catalog. Each page had some 80 page numbers listed
on it, along with other numbers. The client decided to increase each page
number by one. Changing 2400 page numbers by hand would have taken hours to
enter and proof. DataMan did it in minutes -- and without mistakes.
DataMan is fast, easy and powerful. This introduction doesn't begin
to cover all DataMan's powers. Enjoy.

Introduction
------------
Easy View is an application for intelligent browsing of collections of
structured text files, large or small. It allows very fast access by
recognizing the internal structure. All of the following text formats
can be viewed using Easy View:
* setext, including TidBITS and similar publications
* Info-Mac, c.s.m.p, or similar digests
* Mail collections: Internet, Navigator, Notebook, etc.
* Text with "simple" format
* Dictionaries
* Plain text
New Features
------------
* Apple event support: ability to open the current file under System 7
* Filters generalize the concept of case-independent search:
diacritical marks can be ignored, too
* "Search from top" option in Find dialog
* "Hide Top Window" command works very similar to the Hide command in the
Application menu (Hidden window names are in italic)
* "Use Styles" menu toggles the use of styles. When something is copied
while it is on, clipboard contents are also styled.
* Temporary memory is used for parsing under System 7, thus decreasing the
minimum Finder partition
* When text is scrolled, an overlap with the previous window is retained
Warning
-------
The new "Styles" feature is known to cause occasional system crashes in
some configurations. Please uncheck "Use Styles" menu item if you encounter
such a crash.
This feature is still experimental and it was included only as a demo. When
styles are on, printing will be disabled, text selection may misbehave, and
word wrap may not work properly.
Styles should be turned off during extensive searches for better performance.
Extracting always turns styles off automatically.

A serious bug in Easy View was discovered recently by Ian A.
McEachern from Ottawa. The bug will be effective only when a
styled view is closed. However, it is harmless most of the
time. (That's why it remained there for two months)
The clue toward a solution was found by Alan Coopersmith from
Utah. Both users refer to DoubleTrouble utility by Greg Marriott
>From Apple Computer. Thanks to all parties involved.
This patch is not needed if you do not use styled views at all.
Once applied, it will upgrade Easy View 2.32 by modifying a
single CODE resource. The bug corrected by this patch could be
the sole reason for the intermittent crashes mentioned in the
Easy View documents.
To quote from Greg Marriott:
> This kind of bug is very hard to track down, and usually
> difficult to reproduce, because master pointer blocks contain
> 64 handles (by default, some programs change this behavior).
> So, this situation only comes up about 1/64th of the time.
> When it happens, though, the results are inevitably
> catastrophic.

software is running.

EBook is my answer to the growing collection of electronic text "front
ends" available for fee or free. Many of these front ends are based on
Hypercard, as is EBook. Where EBook differs, however, is in basic
philosophy. My goal was to create a simple, self-configuring stack that
would turn a plain text file into the electronic equivalent of a paperback
book: no frills, compact, and easy to read. You will not find elegant page
layout, provision for margin notes, or other special features. You will
find:
o Bookmarks you can set on each page.
o Simple text search.
o "Open where I quit!" A possibly unique feature that remembers the
page you were on when you quit and returns to that page when you next
startup.
For those of you travelling with PowerBooks or simply looking for a way to
read the growing number of fine works becoming available as plain text
files, I hope EBook provides a simple way to enjoy yourself.
EBook is implemented using Hypercard 2.1
EBook is freeware. However, EBook is NOT released into the public domain.
I reserve all rights to the layout and script features. No third party may
use EBook in whole or in part to produce a library of works for sale at any

From: dwv@magic.ucsb.edu (David Valentine)
Subject: [*] Endnote Plus, and Endlink Demo's
This is the latest Demo of Niles and Assoc Endnote+ 1.3
Excerpt From the Manual:
Introducing EndNote Plus
Welcome to EndNote Plus, an Enhanced Reference Database and Bibliography
Maker. As the subtitle suggests, EndNote Plus is a program with a dual
purpose.
First, EndNote Plus is a database manager-specialized in storing, managing,
and searching for bibliographic references in your private reference
library.
Second, EndNote Plus is a bibliography maker-it builds lists of cited works
automatically, and can format references to paste into footnotes as well.
EndNote scans your word processor paper for in-text citations. It then
compiles a bibliography using the information in your database. Finally, it
will produce a copy of your paper, reformatting the in-text citations and
placing the bibliography at the end. You select the style to use and
EndNote does the rest! EndNote can reformat documents created by Microsoft
Word 3, 4, and 5, WordPerfect 1.0 - 2.1, MacWrite 5.0, MacWrite II,
WriteNow 1.0-3.0, Nisus 3 and FrameMaker 3. It can also reformat documents
in RTF (Rich Text Format), and plain text documents.
EndLink is the online database import facility for EndNote. It is an add-on
module to EndNote which enables you to import journal references from
online databases into your EndNote libraries. EndLink is not a program
itself, rather it is a resource file which, when present in the same folder
as the EndNote program, endows EndNote with a new import capability.
To use EndLink, you log on to your database service, and capture the
results of your search as they are listed to the screen. Then you start
EndNote, Import the resulting text file using EndLink, and the references
are imported directly into an EndNote library. Further instructions on
begin on page 28.

Subject: Excalibur - Spelling Checker for Text and LaTeX
This is release 1.4.1 of Excalibur. 8/4/93
Excalibur is a Macintosh spelling checker for LaTeX documents. It also
does a fairly good job with plain TeX files. It reads files of type
TEXT and it is smart enough to ignore most LaTeX commands and a fair
number of plain TeX commands. Since it just ignores these commands, it
will also serve quite nicely as a spelling checker for any TEXT file
that doesn't contain any LaTeX or TeX commands. (It is not completely
accurate to say that Excalibur ignores LaTeX commands. It will process
any arguments that contain text). Excalibur will also spell check the
clipboard, making it useful as a spelling checker for text editors,
mail programs, etc.
Excalibur is a stand-alone application that we have tested with both
OzTeX and Textures documents. The fact that it is a stand-alone
application should not present any inconvenience since it works with
MultiFinder under System 6 and it is System 7 aware.
You will need System 6.0.4 or higher to run Excalibur.
If you are running System 7 or greater, there is balloon help.
Excalibur is free.
Version 1.4.1 includes the following changes.
- Repaired several minor bugs including better error handling under
low memory conditions.
- You can now convert larger text files into dictionaries. If you
create a really large dictionary you may not be able to read it with
an older version of Excalibur.
- Excalibur knows about the conventions in german.sty. If you turn on
the option to treat " as if it were \", Excalibur will also know about
the hyphens and quotes defined in german.sty.
Version 1.4 includes the following changes.
- You may now spell check the contents of the clipboard. You may save
the results back to the clipboard too.
- You may now teach Excalibur about new commands and environments that
you have defined.
- Excalibur now handles the \cite command properly.
- Many smaller changes too.
- If you have an older version of Excalibur, you will need to rebuild
your desktop in order to see the new icon for definition files.

Subject: flashwrite-2-11.hqx
Sorry that I couldn't get the file to you Saturday. I just sent the file.
Here's the article again.
Word processors do a good job of managing larger works - reports, papers,
theses. What most people need is an application or DA for handling small bits
of information quickly and easily. Enter the aptly-named FlashWrite ][ DA, the
shareware successer to Apple's own NotePad DA.
Better than a word processor for small amounts of information:
*launches faster, and launches with a keypress thanks to a control panel
*doesn't require opening any files. uses pages instead
*new pages and changes to old pages are automatically saved when you quit
*only uses 20K, and can be used in System 6 without MultiFinder
Advantages over NotePad DA:
*unlimited number of resizable pages with up to 32,000 characters per page
*can use any font or style, with point sizes from 9 to 24
*pages can be printed, text files imported, and text exported with the
creator code of your favorite word processor.
*menu for switching between pages. pages are named
*lightning-fast word count
*word find and find again
I use FlashWrite every time I turn on my Mac. I use it to keep track of
books, movies, CDs, and software I'm interested in. One page stores the serial
numbers for my electronics, one has ftp sitess and user names, and I use another
to store interesting .sigs. For the person who wanted a monospaced text editor
for online messaging, use FlashWrite with the font for a given page set to
Monaco.
FlashWrite ][ 1.1 is shareware, $15, by Andrew Welch, author of ToDo! and
Easy Envelopes Plus. This latest release is 32 bit clean, Quadra cache compatible, and has Andrew's new address.

This file should replace HyperBibTeX095 on all archives.
HyperBibTeX (version 0.9.7, 3-May-93) is a Macintosh
HyperCard stack for managing bibliography databases
compatible with BibTeX, the bibliography system used by
the TeX typesetting language. HyperBibTeX's features
include:
* entering and editing bibliographic entries using
BibTeX's entry types (Book, Article, Proceedings, etc.),
* checking data integrity and consistency against a set
of authority lists,
* sorting cards on various fields,
* searching the database,
* marking cards individually or with the search function,
* importing entries from a BibTeX file,
* exporting cards to a BibTeX file.
HyperBibTeX requires HyperCard version 2. It should run
fine under system 6, but the Balloon Help facility
requires system 7. It also runs under HyperCard Player.
Version 0.9.7 is an upgrade that fixes bugs (including a
serious bug in version 0.9.5) and adds some new features
(such as an Index window that lists the Keys of the cards).
If you are presently using an older version of HyperBibTeX,
I strongly recommend that you upgrade to version 0.9.7.

Subject: Update! HyperNotebook v1.0b1
Dear Info-Mac Administrator,
This is the second release of HyperNotebook, version 1.0b1. I have fixed
some of the more obvious bugs from the last version. Please replace my
previous upload, version 1.0a2, with this new release. May I suggest that
you call it something like "hyper-notebook-v1b1" or "hypernotebook-v1.0b1"
in the archive. I don't think it is necessary to mention the Reference
Stack separately, even though it could be used as a stand-alone
application.
++++++++++++++++ HyperNotebook Abstract ++++++++++++++++
This is the second public release of HyperNotebook and Reference Stack.
They are hypermedia versions of a spiral notebook and a box of
bibliographic notecards, respectively. They work together, or separately,
and provide not only standard text manipulation and selectable key-field
card sorting, but also button-driven PICT and QuickTime viewing, embedded
pop-up notes, and much more.
This is public domain software. It uses several of Frederic Rinaldi's
wonderful XCMD's and XFCN's. (Thank you Mr. Rinaldi.) Per Mr. Rinaldi's
licensing requirements, this software is not licensed for commercial
distribution, but it may be freely distributed in the public domain on a
not-for-profit basis.
Please send any comments, suggestions or bug reports to me directly via
e-mail. My e-mail address on Internet is: bsanders@ncsa.uiuc.edu.
I hope you find this software useful.

[I was asked by Attain Corp. to post this demo to the archives.

--Franklin Davis fad@think.com]
WELCOME to a demonstration of IN CONTROL.
If you have ever used outlining software such as MORE or Acta, you will
find IN CONTROL to be familiar and powerful. And even if you're not
familiar with traditional outlining software, you'll find the concepts easy
to grasp and instantly useful.
IN CONTROL adds a whole new dimension of power beyond what is available in
simple outliners. With IN CONTROL you can add new columns of information
associated with each topic in the outline. And you can use these new
columns to arrange and quickly re-arrange your outline into different
orders. So you can see the top priority things to do for the California
project, or all the things assigned to Ellis that are due before next
Friday. With the click of a button, you can also see your to-do list
displayed in an interactive calendar view.
IN CONTROL is unlike ordinary calendar or outline programs. While calendars
can remind you of upcoming events, only IN CONTROL helps you decide WHAT TO
DO as well as when to do it.
IN CONTROL is the only To-Do List Manager that lets you organize all your
activities in an outline in a prioritized list and on your calendar. You
choose the organization that's best.
Starting to use IN CONTROL doesn't require a big investment of time or
effort. Just type in your list and IN CONTROL is ready to help you juggle
priorities, decide what to do next, and remember important dates,
assignments, and details.
You can set priorities, assign responsibilities, choose dates, and
instantly sort your list in order based on any of these values. And you can
quickly focus on just those items in the list that match any criteria you
specify. You can view your lists as outlines, calendars, or both.
____________ REQUIREMENTS
IN CONTROL requires the following equipment and software:
Macintosh Plus or greater, including any current
Macintosh model.
System Software version 6.0.5 or later, or 7.0 or later
600K bytes of memory; more for larger files
Two 800K floppy disk drives or a hard disk
System 7 Users: IN CONTROL provides Balloon Help, supports TrueType and the
required AppleEvents, and is 32-bit compatible.

Subject: Mac Digest Stack 1.1
Greetings,
Here is the latest version of my InfoMac Digest Stack. It has some small
improvements such as an arrow button that takes you to the next subject. The
import feature now has an option for closing the stack after importing a batch
of text files. This is useful if the stack is stored on a file server, and you
want it to be available after the importation is finished.
For those who may not know, InfoMac Digest stack is a hypercard front-end for
the InfoMac Digests. It takes the digests as they arrive (big text files) and
imports them into a HyperCard structure that facilitates following threads,
looking for infomation, and generally dealing with the large volume of
information contained in the digest.
The stack is freeware, copyright 1992 by Peter Jorgensen.

It's from 1989 and must have come from the Internet originally,
I found it on some Swedish local BBS.
No bugs to my knowledge (I haven't tested it too hard either). It
handles files 300-400 K without problems, though.
I still use system 6.0.5 and can't guarantee it's system 7 behaviour.
I'm using Disinfectant 3.2 for virus checking.

Subject: submitting MiniText1.0.1
I'd like to apologize for re-submitting MiniText so shortly but
I realized that there was a small bug in v.1.0. I also forgot to
compact the stack (within HyperCard). Now, this is corrected and
I included in this archive both english and french versions of
the stacks.
MiniText1.0.1
------------
MiniText is my impression of a word processor using the HyperCard
(2.1) environment. I was looking for an easy way to open text
files from within HC. I couldn't find anything so I made it.
I hope you will find it worth posting in this archive.

Misebirakasu 2.0
>>the Simple Online Knowledge Solution<<
Misebirakasu is an online documentation system, originally created to replace
DisplayDA and provide a simple means of displaying and accessing small
amounts of useful text. Misebirakasu can now perform those simple duties,
and much more. By the manipulation of resources, one may customize it to
display almost any sort of graphic- or text-based information of any size
that one needs to access quickly and easily, including pictures displayed
within text.
New for 2.0: Status bar which tells you which chapter youUre currently
viewing. Copy now copies pictures along with text. Added the ability to
have the display window vertically stretch itself to fill the screen, and
since that means that we canUt use the autocentering utilities provided by
the System, an option which centers the window on the main screen. Pictures
now copy to the clipboard along with text. TeachTextiness eliminated
entirely. Hilting problems fixed. Drastic speed increases. Find problems
fixed. Changed packaging and method of distribution. Dropped TeachText
compatibility for speed.
Misebirakasu
* can have an unlimited number of chapters. Each chapter can display up to
32K of Styled text in full living color.
* can display pictures within the text.
* allows the user to select and copy any portion of the text. Selected
pictures are also copyable.
* has a "Find" function.
* is 32-bit compatible and 68040 cache compatible, and doesnUt do nasty
things to the system, so it should theoretically work with future systems
forever.
Also
* you can define sections of text which can be accessed quickly and easily
>From the TSectionsU menu.

Mishu-Wuhan Demo 2.04 is a DA and extension with a set of fonts that allow one
to paste Chinese characters as text or pictures into other applications such
as Microsoft Word, MacWrite, Hypercard, Word Perfect or any application that
accepts Apple's standard Styled Text or Pict clipboards. Chinese Word or
MacWrite documents can be imported into PageMaker and QuarkExpress. It will
work under System 6.0.7 or 7 and best of all, you do not need to have Apple's
ChineseTalk System or WorldScript installed! Printing is very slow on
postscript laserprinters, but only slightly longer on QuickDraw printers
such as the Imagewriter, LaserWriter LS and Sytlewriter. Faxing documents is
also quite fast. The method of character selection is similar to ChineseTalk
via pinyin. The only difference between this demo and the full version is
only the characters up to the pinyin "feng" are here.
The DA will not work properly unless both the fonts and extension are
installed and the System restarted. The demo guide is in Word Format.
You can open it with MacWrite, Microsoft Word or any other word processor
that can handle that format by first opening the application and selecting
Open from the file menu. Choose the Guide when the get file dialog appears.
Instructions on ordering the full version are included in the demo guide.
Mishu was given a four and a half mice rating by MacUser magazine in 1989.
Version 2.04 is fully compatible with System 7.1.
Note to Moderators: This demo should replace the earlier version 2.0 demo.

2. Bugs must be documented with an example.
3. Mail the information to me at rsutc@twu.ca

5. I will forward a copy of each new version to Nisus. Several previous

last being version 3.0 about 18 months ago) -all were mailed to Paragon.
Disclaimer: I have discovered many of these bugs myself, and verified most
of the others. (Mac II & IIfx system 7.1 16M + 170M internal, 105M
external, Northgate keyboard, unMouse, trackball, lots of extensions
including NOW, Suitcase, QuickKeys, allowing 2M for Nisus) I have
personally observed all the bug behaviour marked Still applies in 3.47 in
that version. Because there are also a wide variety of different systems
available, I cannot claim that the information in this file is exhaustive or
accurate in all situations. In any case, I take no responsibility for
anyone's use or misuse of this information. The words "I" and "me" refer in
most cases either to myself, or to the submitter. Original wording of
submitters has often been retained (even where I knew about the bug
already,) but names have been removed to protect the innocent. Some of the
bugs (especially in the construction of macros and the operation of supplied
macros) were reported for version 3.05 or 3.06 and have not been verified by
me personally for version 3.06 or 3.47, nor have they been authoritatively
reported to me as fixed. Many of those reported with respect to macros have
been deleted for this edition, as they were not sufficiently specific to be
able to understand and reproduce easily.
No attempt has been made yet to test the script capabilities of 3.47.

Besides all the normal search and replace functionality you would
want, it will also convert straight to curly quotes and back, strip
or add linefeeds for conversions between Mac and DOS conventions,
and substitute linefeeds for carriage returns for Mac/Unix conversions.
It will word wrap and add or remove hard carriage returns within
paragraphs.
PlainText requires System 6.04 or greater and is System 7 friendly.

This is PopChar version 2.6.2. It corrects two bugs that were introduced
in version 2.6.1. The iconic menu mode now works as announced, and the
startup icon can be turned off again.
Sorry for the inconvenience if you already downloaded 2.6.1.
[Moderators: please remove version 2.6.1 from the archives.]
For your information, here is what was new in version 2.6.1:
- A complete rewrite of essential parts was taken to make PopChar
compatible with Microsoft Works 3.0.
- The incompatibility with MacWrite Pro was resolved.
- PopChar can now be invoked from an icon menu next to the help menu
(System 7 only).
- Up to 255 characters can now be inserted in the "More" mode.
- The hiliting of the menus was removed.
- The font size is now chosen such that the character chart always fits
on the main monitor.
- The frame around the "P" icon is not drawn on secondary monitors any
more.
- The PopChar settings are now stored in a preferences file rather than
ion a resource in the control panel itself.
- The PopChar icon was made more "System-7-ish".
- The "ATR patch" was removed. It isn't necessary any more.
- The documentation was converted to TeachText format.
For those who do not know what PopChar is for:
PopChar is a control panel that simplifies "typing" of unusual characters.
Click the PopChar icon in the menu bar, select the character you want,
and PopChar automatically inserts it in the current document as if you had
typed the proper key combination on the keyboard.
PopChar is FREE. TeachText documentation included.

PowerNotesT 2.0 is a major rewrite/upgrade to PowerNotes 1.0, including
several bug fixes, speedier algorithms, and implementation of new features
such as Password Protection and the option to attach graphic images to your
notes!
PowerNotesT is a Hypercard stack designed to be an electronic notebook for
students and researchers alike. Designed for use on a Powerbook (although
it will run on any Mac with a screen size of 640 x 400 or larger), it
organizes and stores information (ie, class notes, research notes,
diagrams, recipes, whatever), which can be textual or graphical in nature.
PowerNotesT has import and export functions for exchanging data with
others; the exported files are browsable on their own or may be imported
into another PowerNotesT stack. This stack is exceptionally useful as an
electronic notebook for students taking notes directly onto their
PowerBooks, or for researchers and experimenters who need to keep track of
experiments, projects, or information from primary literature references.

George Wittenberg asks about an editor for handling "overlapping dialogs" in

handles transcription *extremely* well - to the point of being able to
include the actual voice in the document (if you have a enough RAM)! We use
PREP to transcribe our own studies, in addition to writing all our papers.
This transciption capability is ancillary to PREP's real goal, which is to
provide a writing environment to support collaborative writing. We are an
NSF sponsored project.
PREP includes XTND capabilities for import and export; text, drawing, and
sound support; and much more. Note that PREP is *NOT* a
synchronous/networked/real time environment (although that will be
changing). We think that 90% of the work happens asynchronously, anyway.

The "Reeves Digest Browser" is a hypercard stack which makes it
easy to navigate through digests. It is a self unstuffing,
binhexed archive. It is called the "Reeves Digest Browser" to
distinguish it from other Digest Browsers which are around.
It reads text digests into hypercard putting contents information
into a contents window and each message into its own message
window. It should work on any digest but has been tested only
on the homebrew and grateful dead digests.
Messages can be shown by clicking on the contents window,
choosing "read messages", clicking "next" or "previous" message
buttons, or choosing the message number. Messages can also
be edited and/or exported to their own files. Complete help is
available for all buttons and fields by option-clicking on the

I enclose a rtf to html converter written by

The original source is ftp.cray.com in
/src/cjh/RTF/macbin202.sit.hqx.
The markup language used by world-wide-webb
servers is called html. This program rtftohtml
takes rtf output from e.g. Microsoft Word and
converts it to a html text file. If necessary, this
can be edited using a html aware editor such as
BBedit fitted with html extensions (available from
Sumex). The output consists of a html file along
with any graphic files saved as 1.pict etc. If
all these files are copied to a www server directory, they
become accessible via clients such as Mosaic.
Note that currently, html does not support styles
such as sub or superscripts, nor does it appear to
cope with greek letters etc. Any chemists out there
who wish to lobby for such support?

SaintEdit will read any text file and is loaded with features.

- System 7 Savvy
- Multiple open windows
- Memory dependent file size limit (greater than 32K!)

- FastScrolls
- Drag and Drop any TEXT file
- Sleek Interface
- Printing Support
- Multiple Monitor Support
- Auto read UNIX and DOS files without messing with converters

This is a slightly improved version of the skim Unix program recently

also inserts the necessary 'cd' and 'get' commands so that you can feed

This an enhancement to the original "skim" program, written by
Craig Nevill-Manning. This program helps you browse through an
info-mac digest (such as those posted on comp.sys.mac.digest).
For each new file submission, it asks you whether you want to
download the file or not. Then it creates a script named
"download". Running this script connects automatically to the
info-mac ftp site (sumex) and does all the job for you.
This allows to you to download programs at night, by typing
something like :

This is Style 1.2.1, a simple application that lets you create
small (up to about 32,000 characters) styled text documents.
You can set font, font size, style attributes and color of
individual characters with easily accessible menus.
You can open any number of documents at the same time, the only
limit being available memory. You can create small stand-alone
documents ('AutoViewers') that may be viewed and printed without
the application itself. Last, but not least, Style fully supports
the Claris XTND architecture: you can import and export
documents in various word processor formats.
The Style 1.2.1 package includes translators for MacWrite 5.0
and MacWrite II.
Style takes advantage of most System 7 features and user
interface improvements (including Balloon Help, stationery pads,
movable modal dialogs, temporary memory, apple events, etc.)
but can work with any system starting from 6.0.4.
System 7.0 or newer (7.1 recommended) is required to handle
non-Roman script systems properly.
Main changes from version 1.2:
* Better Script Manager support.
* Support for inline input in double-byte script systems
(yes, that means Style is KanjiTalk7 compatible and TSM-aware!)
* Ability to set print margins accurately.
* Various bug fixes.
This version supersedes all previous releases.
Suggested placement in the info-mac hierarchy: info-mac/text.

[ This program is freeware. ]
>From the Readme file:
TCXdiff is a text file comparison utility which generates a difference (diff)
file for a given source file. The diff file can be used to update an older
version of the source file stored on another computer (normally, a Unix
machine). By transferring the much shorter diff file instead of the entire
source file, significant upload time can be saved. This is especially useful
for people who connect to Unix hosts using slow dial-up modems. Although the
primary focus of TCXdiff is for programmers who need to synchronize their
program files between their personal computer and a Unix host, it can be used
to update any other text file as well.
TCXdiff is based on the freeware program Xdiff written in August 1989 at the
National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). You can obtain Xdiff
via anonymous ftp from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu. The Xdiff package is needed in
addition to TCXdiff since TCXdiff DOES NOT perform the updating per se, but
relies on xfix (part of the Xdiff package) to perform that task. Xfix was
written primarily for Unix hosts, I have not tried to compile it on other
platforms.
TCXdiff is functionally equivalent to Xdiff. However, it adds the ability to
specify default folders and filenames (useful for batch processing), as well
as drag-and-drop file processing capabilities.

To see the type of bug that TEFix fixes, open a new, untitled document using

Just drag & drop the file you want to convert to the TextToMac
icon. First, you set the default way conversion method for each
file type (from Macintosh/MS-DOS/UNIX to Macintosh/MS-DOS/UNIX).
When you drag & drop a file, the program recognizes its type

TextTrap is freeware from Michael Budiansky of Pi Zero Software. It's a
flexible capture utility which allows you to save to disk any text written
to the Mac screen. Buttons allow you to toggle on or off the saving of text
written by DrawText, DrawJust, DrawString, and DrawChar commands.
Don't confuse this with usual capture utilities which save a screen at a
time. You can set this control panel running and capture a whole session of
communication with a mainframe, for example, without having to copy and
paste each screen. You can also capture help files from programs that do
not allow them to be printed or selected for copy/paste.
I have one fancy program for IBM 3278 emulation while connected with a
mainframe. It has its own capture utility for the session--but the opened
captured session is virtually unreadable, filled with color and graphic
escape sequences. This utility provides a readable copy of such sessions.

This perl script runs on Unix systems. It is useful for parsing

simply pipe a message thru "undigest".
"Undigest" will break all the messages inside the digest into
