Knowing that you can't plug bigger chips in, I'm inclined to say you can't plug bigger SIMMs in, but then I just heard that the PS/2 55-SX now supports the 4M simms, so will go to 8M on the motherboard. Which machine are you talking about? Msg 43764 is 08 line(s) on 07/02/90 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to STEVE SVIATKO re: USER FRIENDLY HA! This user interface was designed in NINETEEN SEVENTY EIGHT. I get a kick out of you saying "What can you expect from an IBM system, though". This program is written in 8080 assembly language. Yes, 80 EIGHTY. heh heh. If you don't like it, consider having just learned a lesson in "how things used to be". This is a historical system - the first BBS in the world, to completely rewrite the user interface would be to kill its historical aspects ;-) Msg 43765 is 07 line(s) on 07/04/90 from BRENT JONES to WARD re: USE LOCAL BBS? Ward, I'm glad to hear that you like GrandView. I've got to get it one of these days. Do you use any other local BBS? I know that you are lurking around on CompuServe (especially on the Hewlett Packard and Toshiba forums). But do you ever use Chicago area boards?

I was just looking around for some BBS's to call when I came upon yours. I have an apple ][e with a 300 baud micromodem, also dating back to around 1978.

Using the SEARCH program, you could inspect all of them at once for keywords of your choice (Apple, 312, whatever). Or, once validated, you could download the list(s) of your choice.

Msg 43775 is 09 line(s) on 07/07/90 from JERRY OLSEN to PHIL SCHUMAN re: COPY '*' BUG If you're still having problems with this, a simple solution is a tiny, dedicated program to concatenate all desired files without the unwanted EOF characters. An alternative is a program to inspect the WEEK.DAY file after its generated and convert the offensive characters to, say, spaces. The latter could be tied to your current COPY command in a batch file as well as used independently for other purposes. If you want to pursue this, I could offer some quick direction or for a token amount quickly put together either program. I can be reached at Advocate Enterprises, 312.939.3300, weekday afternoons. Good luck. Msg 43776 is 05 line(s) on 07/07/90 from PHIL SCHUMAN to ALL re: COPY '*' BUG ?? tnx to all who replied to my previous msg. But you are missing the point.
