Amiga Networking
Message #153343
Anyone know of an Ethernet board that I could use to hook my 3000 into my local TCP/IP network (PC's and Mac's). I know I've got to have the AmiTCP software (which I've got) but I've been out of the Amiga hardware loop for some time now and don't know…

Yes, 4.09 is the latest version. I'm still trying to decide if it is financially feasible to put further work into the product. If I do decide to make an upgrade I've got considerable work to do to bring it up to the latest style guide standards, etc.
John, MaxiPlan allocates memory for spreadsheet cells in, I think 16K blocks. Then then uses them as necessary and frees pieces as you process cells. The program keeps track of all its allocations and releases all the unused space when the program completes. This was done, (ancient history) because the…
#Maxiplan ???
Message #133746
Folks, 1. MaxiPlan DOES have an ARexx port. 2. At this time there is no longer distribution for MaxiPlan. If you are interested in updates/upgrades please let me know at: 1199 Forest Ave Suite 264 Pacific Grove, CA 93950 Attn: MaxiPlan 3. The reason MaxiPlan gives so many 'Memory' "errors"…
Larry, the Soundblaster (digitized sound, FM synthesis, MIDI port, etc) card for PC-clones has a PROPRIETARY interface (not SCSI). Made to work with a particular Chinon brand drive. Drives that work with the ProAudio Spectrum are, however, SCSI. – Mike Lehman, author of CD+G for CDTV.
Pat, Having worked on the CDTV ROM I can tell you that the ROM is 1.3. Workbench 2.0 requires Kickstart 2.0 which is not in the ROM. Not having any official affiliation with CBM at this time I can only speculate that perhaps a future CDTV may support 2.0 but…
#Intuitive Tech Returns!
Message #84467
Greetings to ALL. MaxiPlan-III and UltraCard Plus are finally out the door AND we've recovered from same. We'll be here on CIS at least once or twice per week from now on and GUARANTEE to read and respond to our mail. We appologize to all who waited patiently with us…
Jim, thanks for your support. I'll let you know. Mike
Just finished new, glorious, 150+ page UC manual. Includes MANY MANY enhancements including a complete language reference and a operating reference. This will be available for download in next week or so, as well as in printed form. Mike
Ethan, I'll double check but I'm sure you are. Mike
Ray, you need to use the OBJECT() function. You pass it the id of the object in question (such as OBJECT(15)) and it will indirectly reference it. When a button is clicked and sets itself on the global variable "ME" is set to the id of the button clicked so…
The way you do that facility with UC is to code your script to talk back to UC and store the results you need into a UC variable directly. We are working on a more tightly coupled link to be available in a near term future release now that ARexx…
Bob, I appreciate your comments. It does say in the documentation, which I admit is discontiguous (to say the least), that you can in-fact talk to UC from ARexx. It listens on its ARexx port (ULTRA1) for any UltraTalk command. The reason we run ARexx scripts the way we do…
Tom, UltraCard has always been an ARexx Host in that it has always talked out to and listened to ARexx messages. You do it with a stack or maybe I don't understand what you mean by an ARexx host. Mike
Ray, you MUST have all the sound files in ULTRA:STACKS IF you don't then you will get the "not enough memory to load sound" msg. If that's not the problem please let me know. Mike
UltraCard Appologies
Message #68844
To All UltraCard Owners and other CIS users: Appologies for the long delays in responding to mail and update requests. During September there was a death in my family and my 3yr old daughter had an emergency hospital stay. The combination of these two made September a month in which…

Please call me, if possible, especially re: Help button. If you have installed on hard disk do you have the HELP stack in the stacks drawer? Hope to hear from you soon. Mike

I am pleased to announce that Jay Miner, designer of the Amiga, will be participating with us at the upcoming AmiExpo in Chicago. July 28, 29 and 30. He will be at our booth helping us demonstrate, and sell UltraCard. If you buy your UltraCard at the show Jay will…
UltraCard also uses the AMIGA OPERATING SYSTEM. UltraCard does NOT "MONITOR MOUSE MESSAGES" it simply waits, just like CAN-DO for a message from the OS. ULTRACARD is very multi-tasking! Try to think of something else but don't speak to what you don't really know!
Martin, as you well know, software sometimes slips. Your disk should arrive soon.
Please report what type of crashes (if any) you are having. The browser will continue to get smaller. The stacks we have posted are just the beginning. I expect that we will post at least 2 to 3 stacks per week in the coming weeks so that you all can…
Thanks. We are quite excited and expect performance to improve substantially as we switch from Manx to Lattice with register parameters. We just couldn't justify making the compiler switch until we shipped the first version.
Thank you. We are quite happy with the product and expect that it will continue to improve (almost daily) but we will upload weekly. Thanks Mike Lehman
No. Your 1.01a disk has been shipped to you. Sorry for the delay

Where's UltraCard?
Message #56143
Sorry about the delay but when you are slogging through the final mud each step seems like it must be the last! We have reached the other shore and the browser and sample stacks have just been uploaded.

UltraCard (not Vapor!)
Message #50676
UltraCard v.s. HyperCard stacks. Apple has not released (and I am a Mac developer too) the format for HyperCard stacks. They don't want other systems to be able to read the format. Maybe in the future we will attempt to reverse engineer it but for now we just want to…
Anthony, If you are using MaxiPlan PLUS you could write a macro and turn FORMFEED off (just what I intended it for!). If you don't have PLUS contact BEST, Inc. *503-684-6655 to get an upgrade to Plan/IT which includes the macros. Another alternative is to write out your printing to…
Demo for UltraCard should be available shortly before product ships which is scheduled for before June 15, 1989. Demo will include browser and sample stacks.
Gentlemen, I just got back from a "secluded location" so that I could make sure that UltraCard does indeed become reality. We are hard at work testing the product so that you will all be satisfied when it ships. The current projection is June 15th. Please note: It will ship…
