  By Tony Lindsey <xxltony@cts.com>

  I'm going to be hanging-out at MacWorld Expo in San Francisco,
  going to parties, checking-out the show and schmoozing my head
  off.  I'd be grateful if folks would clue me in to the most
  neat-o parties, breakfasts and dinners to crash.

  I will be glad to meet any Mac*Chat readers that will be
  attending.  Here's how:

  The User Group Connection has a room called the UGWUMP room: the
  User Group Welcoming, Unwinding and Meeting Place. It's either
  room 112 or 121 in the North Hall of Moscone.  I'll be there at
  2PM on Thursday the 18th, and at 4PM on Friday the 19th.  I'll
  wear a brown vest so you'll know it's me!

Let Me Introduce Myself, Part Three - My Hobbies
------------------------------------------------
  By Tony Lindsey <xxltony@cts.com>

  My main hobby is restoring my old cars:

  <http://www.cts.com/browse/xxltony/tony-lindsey.html>

  - 1953 Buick Roadmaster Woodie Wagon (one of 670 made).  This is
  the one sucking-up all of my spare money right now, since it's
  stripped to the bare frame and body, and the floor-pan is being
  replaced.  Anybody have a 1953 Buick parts-car?  It's one of the
  very final American-made wood-bodied cars ever made, with
  seasoned Northern Ash, mahogany and teak woodwork.  It's got
  chrome for the nation, with portholes, wire wheels and a
  waterfall grille.

  - 1955 Dodge LaFemme (one of around 300 made).  The only US-built
  production car ever made for women, which came with a purse,
  umbrella, rain-hat and rain-coat.  We have everything (unused)
  except for the rain-coat.  I'm the worldwide authority on these
  cars.  My definitive article on the topic (Collectible Automobile
  magazine, February 1988) has been plagiarized in three magazine
  articles so far.

  1961 Imperial Crown convertible (one of 429 made).  19 feet (5.79
  meters) long, 7 feet (2.134 meters) wide, 5,280 pounds (2.4
  metric tons).  HUGE tail-fins - The largest of any production
  car.  The ultimate parade-car in glossy black.  Some day it will
  have a red leather interior.  It has swivel 6-way bucket seats,
  the factory-equipped record-player, and an automatically-dimming
  rearview mirror (operated by one large vacuum tube).  The car was
  an awesome technological marvel when it was new, costing as much
  as two 1961 Cadillacs when equipped with all options.  I also
  edit the monthly electronic Imperials*Online newsletter, with
  around 30 readers.

  I bought all of my old cars over a decade ago, and plan to keep
  them for the rest of my life - I'll be that old poop driving the
  old woodie wagon while all of the whippersnappers will be flying
  around in their George Jetsonmobiles!

  Next issue - I talk about my work with the newsletter.

Macintosh Consultants Network Conference
----------------------------------------
  [I'm going to be Master of Ceremonies at the Macintosh
  Consultants Network International Consultants Conference in San
  Francisco, right after MacWorld Expo.  I urge ALL Mac consultants
  to make plans to be there.  Here's the info:]

  By John Friedlander, Executive Director, Macintosh Consultants
  Network <MCN@MACN.com>

  The MCN is an eight-year old, international, U.S. based
  not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting the fortunes
  of Macintosh-oriented consultants.

  One of our main activities are the International Consultants
  Conferences we present twice annually. The next one (our 15th) is
  coming right up, in San Francisco January 12-15, 1996 immediately
  following San Francisco MacWorld. (MacWorld ends and the
  Conference begins on Friday, January 12.)

  The theme of this conference is "Communication and Collaboration
  in a Shifting Market."

  + MCN conferences feature highly detailed, technically oriented
  presentations by leading Macintosh hardware and software vendors.
  Vendors who have confirmed their presentations to date at the
  upcoming conference include ACI (4D), Claris (FileMaker Pro 3.0),
  Dayna (fast ethernet), Farallon (Netopia Ethernet/ISDN Router),
  Global Village (OneWorld telecom servers and internet routers),
  Soft Arc (First Class), Management Software (Job Order Process
  Management software), and Wave Research (File Wave software).
  (Other vendors are about to commit but can't be listed until they
  do.) These are not just marketing presentations, but instead are
  typically presented by product managers and engineers who present
  information needed by consultants integrating products into
  specialized, multi-vendor solutions environments.

  + Since vendors presenting at MCN conferences want to make sure
  attendees get the best opportunity to fully evaluate their
  products, it is common for conference attendees to go home with
  NFR software and hardware discounts worth far more than their
  cost of attending the conference.

  + MCN Conferences also present "Practice Management" sessions,
  designed to help you face the challenges inherent in any
  consulting practice: how to set rates, how to find good clients
  and lose bad ones, how to handle business growth, how to deal
  with accounting and taxation issues, how to work with teams, etc.

  + MCN Conferences are also unparalleled opportunities for you to
  build one-on-one social relationships with the people you need to
  know to help streamline your work: the product managers who
  understand the value of your experience in the real world, the
  support engineers who know you have already asked and answered
  the basic questions and therefore can operate on a high level of
  competence when calling for tech support, and other consultants
  with expertise in areas you want to know more about.

  + In addition, Mac evangelist extraordinaire, well-known author
  and Apple Fellow Guy Kawasaki will keynote the conference, Power
  Computing Evangelist and Mac author Bob LeVitus will moderate a
  discussion on consulting challenges, and (drumroll, please) your
  friendly host and Editor TONY LINDSEY will emcee the technical
  presentations.

  + MCN Conference attendees will also be welcomed (if
  pre-registered) at a reception with Apple USA President Jim
  Buckley on Tuesday, January 9 in San Francisco.

  + The conference costs $695 for non-MCN members, $545 for MCN
  members. There is a $50 discount for online registration. There
  are a strictly limited number of seats available for this
  conference. Discounted hotel rates are available, but rooms are
  selling fast, and should be booked before 12/23. To ensure your
  ability to attend, register immediately! To get a registration
  form, send any email message to <MCNinfo@macn.com> for an
  automatic reply. You can also get more information by visiting
  the MCN home page at <http://www.macn.com>.

  [To join the MCN, call 800/729-4626 or 212/532-3365 and Doris
  will take your SnailMail address and send you the application.
  Anybody want to help them make it digital?]

America Online Attached-File Transfers
--------------------------------------
  By Tony Lindsey <xxltony@cts.com>

  In issue #98, I asked how to safely and simply swap binary files
  (programs, sounds, spreadsheets, etc.) between America Online and
  the Internet.  It's still messy, though evidently it's being
  worked on.  Personally, I just use Stuffit and Stuffit Expander
  to compress the files I'm sending into one archive, and send it
  through.  If a file ends up arriving without the correct type and
  creator, and Stuffit Expander won't recognize it, I use FileTyper
  to change the type (to SITD) and the creator (SIT!).

  This topic was discussed at length in a recent issue of TidBITs:

  <ftp://ftp.tidbits.com/pub/tidbits/issues/1995/TidBITS#294_11-Sep-95.etx>

  and, I'm glad to say that there is a nice, new Frequently Asked
  Questions (FAQ) group at AOL:

New Help From AOL
-----------------
  By Leslie Jones <MacFAQ@aol.com>

  The AOL FAQ 2.6 explains the process [of swapping files], and can
  be downloaded from the net. AOL uses pretty much standard MIME
  encoding. The one trick is that if multiple files arrive in one
  message, you must use uucd to decode them.

  <http://users.aol.com/macfaq/>

  <ftp://users.aol.com/macfaq/aol-faq.sit>

  In the time since the FAQ was written, AOL has updated their mail
  gateway to correctly BinHex Macintosh files, so ignore the
  instructions in the FAQ that relate to BinHex.

  The FAQ also explains how to create home pages and FTP sites on
  AOL, two topics that seem to be causing a lot of confusion lately.

Portrait & Swivel Displays
--------------------------
  [In issue #98, it was stated that portrait monitors won't work on
  the Performa/Quadra 630-series of Macs.  In this issue, I am
  including the rebuttals.]

  ------

  By Sean Elkins <SLE1@aol.com>

  I am writing this on a Performa 636 with a Portrait Display Labs
  15" pivot monitor attached. Allow me to say without equivocation
  that my monitor DOES work in vertical mode with my computer.
  Users just need to make sure they have a newer model with the
  latest version of the Pivot driver.

  I bought both computer and monitor from MacMall
  <800-222-2808/310-787-4500> in early June of this year. Am highly
  satisfied with both.

  One complaint - when you flip the monitor to vertical mode, it
  rearranges my desktop icons so they are all on-screen. That's OK,
  but when you flip back to horizontal, the icons stay scrambled.

  ------

  By Michael Kaiser <mwkaiser@students.wisc.edu>

  A Performa 636 has an LC ['030] processor direct slot, which will
  take any of a number of 16 or 24 bit video cards (LapisColor 24,
  Color Fusion) which are available in many Mac catalogs (MacZone,
  MacMall).  I think these cards will support the portrait displays.

  -------

  By Christian F. Buser, Switzerland <cbuser@access.ch>

  Be warned if you want to attach a Pivot monitor to a PMac 7200/75
  (and probably others): You'll need two extra adapters between the
  Mac and the monitor (a black and a gray one), and you need
  another version of the "MacPortrait" software: 2.0.

  It took me 3 weeks to get the adapters from the distributor here,
  and they didn't tell me about the software. With adapters but
  without software, there's no pivoting... And I didn't yet get the
  software!

  The only Pivot monitor which works (according to PDL) with the
  new PCI PowerMacs is the Radius Precision Color Pivot (model
  0536).

  For more info or questions, ask Portrait Display Labs, which can
  be reached at <pdlcalif@aol.com>

  -------

  By David H. Brown <brownd@stolaf.edu>

  Regarding the misinformation about expanding the 63x macs, both
  Focus Enhancements and XCeed Technologies make video cards for
  the 63x series. It goes into the PDS (processor direct slot),
  right where you'd expect a video card to go on a mac that doesn't
  have NuBus or PCI. It does, however, block some of the space
  needed to do the PPC upgrade. I have the technical specs for the
  Color Fusion from XCEED; it specifically refers to the 640x870
  Apple Portrait display. While neither has a web site, they're
  both listed in the vendor database at

  <http://www.macfaq.com/>

  XCEED's card, at least, is also compatible with older LCs,
  performas, the color classic, and probably other macs with an
  '030 Processor Direct Slot. [Yes, that's what it has!]

Easter Eggs
-----------
  By Tom Callahan <tcallaha@risd.edu>

  Check out this file on AOL for ALL of the Apple Easter Eggs.

  Apple Easter Eggs 1.3.5

  It has the ones mentioned so far in your newsletter (explained
  more accurately and with specific how-to's about getting them)
  and MANY more.

  I just uploaded it to my ftp space on AOL:

  <ftp://users.aol.com/tacrisd/pub/AppleEasterEggs135.hqx>

  -------

  By Patrick Hoepfner <hoepfner@intr.net>

  Another tip about the System 7.5 "Find File" DA.  When using
  "More Choices" to select several different criterion, you can
  remove one of them by holding the <Control> key down before
  dragging it to the trash.  Dragging it to the desktop created a
  "text clipping" file on the desktop but doesn't delete it from
  the list.

  ------

  By Tim Askew <Tim.Askew@chadwyck.co.uk>

  ILLUSTRATOR 5.5

  Open About box holding Ctrl Option Command keys down to get a
  slightly different About Screen.

  If the About screen is left open for a couple of minutes, some
  vaguely amusing credits are displayed.

  In the main Illustrator window, there is a drop down menu in the
  bottom left hand part of the scroll bar. If this is clicked
  whilst Ctrl Option Apple are held down you get some cool new
  options to be displayed like:

  -Eyes

  -Moon Phase
  -Number of Mouse Clicks whilst Illustrator has been opened
  -Programmers home number
  -US National Debt
  -Shopping days till xmas
  -Random Numbers

Making Color T-Shirts With The Mac, Part One
--------------------------------------------
  [Back in issue #98, I asked for tips from readers because I
  wanted to make color t-shirts for my family as a gift.  I
  received a LOT of tips, which I'm now breaking up into separate
  categories.  In this issue, I'll pass-along the tips that deal
  with iron-on transfers.]

  -------

  By W Clark Buchanan <macwuh@aol.com> <http://users.aol.com/macwuh>

  Pop on over to your local Kinko's (or other copy shop or
  quickprinter) and toss them a disk with your graphics on it.
  Assuming they have Macs hooked up to their Canon Color Laser
  Copier (which is pretty standard at Kinko's nowadays), they can
  simply print directly from your disk onto iron-on t-shirt
  transfers.

  Two caveats, however:

  1) I have no idea what you'll pay for this. (If I recall, it's
  around $2.50 per print)

  2) The Canon CLC tends to do a better job with copying than with
  direct printing. It may be worth it, for quality's sake, to get
  your artwork printed on a dye-sublimation printer and take those
  continuous-tone prints to the copier.

  -------

  By Gayanna Magcosta <magcosta@elgin.com>

  The 2-color Buick design is great and shouldn't be too expensive
  to silkscreen. A lot of silkscreeners are taking artwork on disks
  now and will handle trapping issues for you. You'd definitely get
  the nicest t-shirt that way.

  An alternative is outputting from disk to color transfers that
  are then ironed onto the shirt. We've done this for quick
  turn-around, low run t-shirts. Look for this service at a Kinko's
  or other copy center.  Kinko's does all the work, including
  purchasing the shirts. They seem to wear pretty well....although
  a few people in our office must use pretty high-intensity
  detergent because the color on their shirts faded quite a bit.

  --------

  [I received many letters pointing-out a very nice article on the
  topic of making iron-on transfers from an Apple-compatible inkjet
  printer like they show in those Canon commercials.  I'm loathe to
  re-post it here due to space considerations, but you can get
  Volume 2, Issue 17 of Information Alley in text-format from:


<ftp://ftp.info.apple.com/Apple.Support.Area/The.Information.Alley/InfoAlley
.V2.Iss17.text.sea.hqx>

  To get InfoAlley in text, Common Ground or Acrobat PDF format, or
  learn how to subscribe to the text version, check out:

  <http://support.info.apple.com/info.alley/info.alley.html>

  In a nutshell, here's what I've learned from that article, the
  help of many others, and my own digging:

  If you call Canon at <800/671-1090/314-458-0300> and order
  T-shirt Transfer Paper, part number TR101, it'll cost you
  US$17.95 per box, and $8.00 for shipping, so order several boxes
  and save the extra shipping cost.  This special paper works with
  the Color StyleWriter 2200, Color StyleWriter 2400, and Color
  StyleWriter Pro, and doesn't require any special ink.  I'm hoping
  it works with my HP DeskWriter 550C, and I'll be sure to let
  everybody know.

  You print the image flip-flopped on the paper, then iron-on the
  image, wash the shirt first in a vinegar-water mix and then in a
  regular wash.  This is pretty good for short runs.]

  By Gene Wunderlin, Fresno, CA <genew@CyberGate.COM>

  Canon T-Shirt Transfers, TR-101 (10 sheets per pack, about $17).
  Look for the paper at Home Depot, Good Guys, Circuit City, Sears,
  etc. The image is printed in the backprint mode (needs to be
  reversed). Located in Apple Color StyleWriter print dialog box
  under PAPER TYPE.

  You might want to subscribe to FLASH Magazine, "the premier
  journal of desk- top printing" [see info below]. These people
  have toner and cartridges for many different printers that can
  put images onto just about anything. Their mag for July-Aug 94 is
  how to create color transfers for t-shirts on black and white
  laser printers. Great magazine for ideas on how to keep a Laser-
  writer printer (or its equivalent) going forever. They have back
  issues available too.

  -------

  By Randall Kurashige <rhk@pixi.com>

  Have you seen the Flash magazine?  They are a spin-off of Black
  Lightning which stocks toner cartridges for transfers to
  T-shirts, mugs, hats etc. They have articles on DTP (desk top
  printing) and binding and other sorts of stuff.  Black Lightning
  does sell cartridges in several colors specifically for iron on
  transfer work.  Toner cartridges PER COLOR run from $140-250
  depending on the print engine for your laser.  Although it may be
  a little steep in $$$ if you are doing low volume production and
  want four color work, it appears if you have the artwork and a
  printer that can take the cartridges (and there are quite a few
  different types) you should be able to make iron-ons for your
  shirt on demand.  they use translucent toner inks so you could
  simulate a regular four color CMYK if you have decent
  registration on your printer.

  In reference to your Buick logo being screenprinted for Xmas
  gifts. What is the finished size? I'm assuming this would be for
  short runs, such as 10-25 or so. Seiko is probably the leader in
  the screenprint field with their Personal colorpoint printer - it
  will produce wax thermal and dye-sub transfers - using 3 and 4
  color ribbons. Depending on which you choose - these images can
  be flopped and printed to a special transfer paper and then
  applied to a variety of finished products including T-Shirts,
  hats, mugs, mousepads - etc. Fargo has a similar process - but
  their printer leaves a bit to be desired. We are a VAR
  specializing in screenprint applications nationwide.

  The printer itself is around $2,695.00 - street price - cost to
  produce an 8 x 10 transfer around $2.00 - then heat press it on.
  Some claim you can iron it on - but it looks pretty lousy. The
  heat press results are fantastic. So at cost ya got a finished
  T-Shirt for around $4-5 or less. And as I'm sure you know for
  short runs you'll never touch that in screenprinting. Now as to
  what they are retailing these for - probably what the market will
  bear - if you can find someone local who does this - trade them
  some consulting time for the shirts.

  [In the next issue, I'll talk about doing t-shirt transfers using
  color separations.]

Mac OS Purge
------------
  By Dave Kramer <reeltime@voicenet.com>

  <http://www.voicenet.com/~reeltime/>

  There's a program I found on the 'Net called Mac OS Purge. This
  small application should be on every user's desktop, in my humble
  opinion. Double-clicking it clears your RAM, which is useful
  after using applications like games and graphics programs that
  call on QuickTime and other memory intensive extensions that
  aren't always properly unloaded after use.

  You'll see a quick before and after picture as your About This
  Macintosh dialog is called up, the program runs and then quickly
  exits, leaving you generally with significantly more available
  RAM than you had before. Frankly, I think Apple should put a
  routine like this into the Mac OS that kicks in to flush your RAM
  each time you quit a program.

  I've found that since I started using Mac OS Purge, I crash less,
  and I always have enough RAM to launch my programs.

AOL Vs. Local Service Providers, Continued
------------------------------------------
  By Tony Lindsey <xxltony@cts.com>

  In issues #97 and 98, I mentioned that I had found 28 separate
  Internet Service Providers (ISP's) offering connections to the
  Internet for my area.  Some are local, and others provide
  800-number access all over the USA.  I've promised many people I
  would explain the process of shopping for a local provider in an
  ongoing series.  This is part three.

  -------

  Getting A Listing And Then Modifying It:

  First, I went to THE LIST's web page:

  <http://thelist.com>

  I found "619" down toward the bottom of the page and clicked on
  it, because that is the area code for my part of Southern
  California. There are a lot of other pre-set locations all over
  the world, plus a way to search for other criteria.

  As soon as I saw the custom-made list of providers, I pulled down
  my Web browser's File menu and chose "Save As..." - I saved the
  file's format as Source, because that creates a text file with
  the necessary codes for live links to the providers I've chosen.
  I saved that file (calling it "Local ISP.html") onto my Desktop,
  so I'd be able to find it later and browse through it at my
  leisure, when I wasn't racking-up online charges.

  I signed-off from my online connection and opened-up the folder
  that contained my Web browser.  I dragged "Local ISP.html" onto
  the Web browser's icon.  I settled back and read through the long
  listing, making notes as I went along.  I made a list on paper of
  the names of the ISP's that sounded at least somewhat-relevant to
  my needs.  I quit from the browser and then dragged the "Local
  ISP.html" file onto my word-processor.

  Replacing The Linefeeds With Carriage Returns:

  The file looked too jumbled for my tastes, and full of little box
  characters.  I knew from experience that these were linefeed
  characters, so I copied one of them and chose "Replace..." under
  my Edit menu.  I pasted the box character into the first field
  and put the code for a carriage-return character into the second
  field.  In MS Word, that code is "^p", and in ClarisWorks I
  believe it's "\p".  Check your program's Help Index under "Search
  and Replace" for specifics.

  After I gave the command to do the search and replace, my file
  suddenly stopped being all jumbled.  It seemed to make more
  sense, though still full of funky codes surrounded by
  angle-bracket characters.  Those are necessary for the Web
  browser to make the text look formatted, so we'll leave 'em alone.

  Eradicating Unnecessary Listings

  I left the funky angle-bracket codes at the top of the file
  alone, since those are necessary for proper display in my
  browser.  I scrolled down to the listings that mentioned each
  business and saw that they were sort-of in the form of a
  paragraph.  I started deleting the businesses that were of no
  interest to me, by deleting an entire paragraph at a time.

  When I was done, I saw some codes at the top, the specific
  businesses that were of interest to me, and some codes at the
  bottom.  I saved the file again, making sure the file format was
  plain Text, since my browser can't read my usual word-processor
  file format.  I made sure I quit COMPLETELY from the
  word-processor.  That's important, to avoid errors later on.

  Re-Reading The List, And Signing On.

  I dragged "Local ISP.html" onto the Web browser's icon again, and
  looked to see how well my deletions had worked.  I was pretty
  satisfied, so I quit the browser.

  I signed back onto the Internet, began cruising the Web again,
  and then chose "open file" under the browser's File menu.  I
  opened "Local ISP.html" on the Desktop and started clicking the
  various links to check-out the various pages offered to me.  I
  started sending e-mail to each of the businesses to request more
  information about their service.  After that, my REAL shopping
  began.
