Phil: Gollee! Wierd and unpleasant woes & unthinkables have surely been after you over the past few days indeed! In a nutshell; there is nothing wrong with the program. I've downloaded the file with ead and XMODEM protocol via the Tandy 1000 and with Mortimer using both X-TEL (Read &…
Barry: Very interesting about the problems folks are having. Phil Wheeler has been going nuts with the file and I have a long message to prepare for him, but I've downloaded the program six different ways over the last three days with no problems at all. Still czeching … .^Dave^.
Tim: Generally, "as a matter of course", Tandy reads all messages now that they are the SIG sponsor. However, due to the holidays I know that Tandy has temporarily moved to Kansas and may miss some scrolling messages. Therefore, I'll store this thread in the database for Tandy to pick…
Jim: MERged the three files about 45 minutes ago after Mortimer had czeched them out but not tested them. One thought about file descriptions and the documentation: hadn't there best be a comment to the effect of using PIXTEL to get the pictures in the first place? Or am I…
Bill: See PICTUR.* files in DL 1 … Wondrous 100 … .^Dave^.
-+WMS3+- The Write ROM is indeed a super fine program; with a Tandy 1000 on my desk the Write ROM is preferred for heaavy duty jobs — multiple copies with special formatting of many different kinds. Write ROM will NOT read/write to disk, therefore I follow my standard practice of…
J. Fredd: Joel Orr 76576,276 still active around here though the Joel I had in mind originally was Joel Dinda!! Better luck … Orring along … .^Dave^.
Corky: Yup, you got the uploading correctly, but you forgot the checksum. My report is 185,291 … .^Dave^.
Corkcil: Joel is still around here though not as visible as he once was. You may be able to catch him with a message here or on EasyPlex if desired. We'll be looking for the programs … SIGant bien … a la cent mode …. .^Dave^.
Where is TCOMP ???
Message #100572
John: TCOMP.121 is available in DL 4; you can find all related files in the DL 4 area with the command: S TCOMP T'is worth the few $0.nn spent to download and print out Bulletin #4 which tells how to find files as well as how to download them. Best…
Cecil: Not familiar with D/VI stuff, but what you offer sound very much usable to me. Note, however, that DVI support is in DL 5, not 4, so if you haven't looked lately you might czech DVI.CAT out. Be looking for them … .^Dave^.
Rod: There is a known PRINT USING bug that has been batted about and worked around for the last couple of years. Unfortunately, I don't bermember the details of getting around the problem but I suspect that what you must do is forget the F$ and stick to the plain…
Wayne: Nutt'n to it; but if'n you are reading this in upper case you had best read Bulletin #4 from the Bulletins menu chosen from the Function menu. RAM expansion is a common interest of many. What follows is the result of careful examination of magazines devoted to portable computers…
YOUR UNLOAD.BA, #2
Message #95281
Norm: Deleted both your messages to John since you have things under control; BUT you got a bad download. Line 400 DOES read "GOTO 405", not 402 since it is designed to skip the next IF line. Whenever you have problems with a program, I recommend that you czech the…
YOUR UNLOAD.BA
Message #95278
Norm: Have you already read LOADUN.DOC for instructions?? Also, if'n you are reading this in upper case you could have problems with downloaded programs. See Bulletin #4 for print out of downloading instructions. Good luck … .^Dave^.
Michael: When wishing to reply to a message, it is FAR easier to use the RE command at the (UA RE T) prompt rather than originating another message from scratch!!! See MESSAG.HLP and SAVMON.HLP from DL 1. Good luck …. .^Dave^.
Don: Amazing indeed! Wonder if Woods had found that out!! Of course, he is a DVI man so …. DOCHK.100 and at least one other file in DL 4 confirm CAS: loads methinks …. .^Dave^.
EXTRA RAM
Message #95164
Michael: In addition to the help provided by the two other SIG members, here are my findings: RAM expansion is a common interest of many. What follows is the result of careful examination of magazines devoted to portable computers and the information available here on the Model 100 SIG: 1)…
Marty: Ask me again after the 13th. Will see Carl in Princeton during the PCMfest next weekend where he'll be conducting a seminar. Talked to him last Sunday and he said the book, definitely titled "Inside the TRS-80 Model 100", would be out the end of October or early in…
Tony: Let's hold for now; methinks we have about six programs that do the same thing to one degree or another. Therefore, methinks I'll do a re-write of UPLOAD.HLP [mebbe DOWNLD.HLP too] to give better, clearer guidance with the options available included. Remind me after PCMfest … .^Dave^. p.s. Deletion…
THANKS
Message #95006
Robert: Even though Dennis seems to think that I look Jovian [wazzat??!!], I'll comply with his suggestion and provide you the standard: As you came in, you went right past a sign that indicated ESSENTIAL files for $$$$ saving use of the SIG. For downloading: 1) Type B and press…
Tony: Uh huh, but what's wrong with CHKSUM.RY ??? Fewer bytes … .^Dave^.
Tony: Methinks that after the initial exuberance [NEW TOY!] has worn off that a very THOROUGH comparison would be a GREAT boon to us all. As of the moment, all we have is M200.EVL and the 28K TANDY.200 in DL 6. Listening … .^Dave^.
#RAMDIR.200 in DL4
Message #94931
Tony: Neither having, nor expecting to have, a Tandy 200 I'll have to wait a long time to meet Suzuki/Hayashi cousins. I guess … .^Dave^.

SCHDUL.100
Message #88454
Dick: Aha! Just peeked at program. T'ain't the CLEAR100 in line 10 that need modification I think, t'is the DIM statements! Change all the DIM stuff from 50 to 20, for starters, and see how it goes. That will limit you to 20, instead of 50, entries I think but…

SCHDUL.100
Message #88452
Dick: An admirable opportunity for you to get into some program adaptation. All you will need to do to take advantage of the Tandy 200's larger screen is make judicious use of the PRINT@ statement. Don't know if Roger used them on his program [haven't looked], but break out your…

SPRED2
Message #88448
Mark: Since I wouldn't know a spreadsheet from a LOTUS if t'were to hit me up along side of the head, and I don't have a NECy, can't be of help. Urge you to Email both George Graff 70305,701 and Robinson Markel at 72456,3604 with any/all comments and or suggestions…

Clay: Nope. 1) TCOMP.121 unable to handle strings, which SPREAD.WM3 is loaded with. 2) When TCOMP.nnn can handle strings, there just won't be room to compile a program the size of SPREAD.WM3 — until it is successfully modified to compile the program on disk! Sorry 'bout that … .^Dave^.

Eckhard: Are you sure that error wasn't in 15 or 16? Just took a look; please indicate WHICH error was reported as well as line number — big difference. Line 15, and 16, load programs which must be resident. If you haven't installed those two programs properly, then there will…

Eckhard: Hmmmmm, methinks some more documentation to read. If you mean that you see double letters when you type and so forth, just press your F4 key which is evidently marked "Half" when you should be at "Full"; page 81 of Manual. Lots of folks are using DIARY.301 with no…

ROM problems …
Message #88371
Stan: Problems you report with "freaky things" happening when calling the Tandy "Interactive Solutions ROM" after using your Model 100 BBS combine two currently unsual factors: most of us have limited BBS on a 100 experience, and even few have the Tandy ROM to play with. Methinks the tekniko types…

Jim: Since it makes sense for Tandy 200 folks to be able to search for their programs with S *.200 command, I'm trying to get all Tandy 200 specific programs set with 200 extension; therefore changed file name to subject above. Also, your documentation was guinea pig: first file to…
