Heh, i was supposed to do a quick look at it and that "quick look" took almost 2.5 hours... The best issue i've ever seen. Excellent job!!!

As allways an excellent job. It was worth the wait.

It should have kept you that long!

It took me a 'little' bit longer to write my bits for it!

Yeah, and being a MacMini user i really enjoyed your document about Atari emulation on Mac. It also made me to read previous issues a bit closer which i was too busy (yeah right) to do earlier. I should try Aranym a bit more, it seems to have some potential...

BTW i've noticed that NoSTalgia's hard disk works better if you unmount the hd-image from finder after copying the files on it, and then start emulation. If it stays on the desktop while running NoSTalgia, i've always had tons of trouble with it...

Cool! Another one of us out there!

Good tip, but I've basically stuck with Hatari, as it is a lot easier to use in that regard, is pretty compatible, has STe emulation, and is still being developed. Only downside is, that I suspect the Mini is a tiny bit underpowered for it, (slow sound etc), but it is usually the first thing I try ST stuff on when I download it.

Anyway, I'm pleased there's something I've done which is directly useful, and not just of passing interest.

I read some articles, nice work, thanks to all Alive team to keep this mag "Alive"

It'd be useful on the Wiki for some of the Mac owners to help update the pages where it's appropriate too

With Mac OS 9 leaving on the desk meant you couldn't use it at all...

What kind of help is needed?

Thanks for the new release. Great work, as usual.

@ CiH.

Do you have to use that (complicated) minishell to write article for the mag? Or can you just submit text articles to the Alive team?

Post by **Mug UK** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 5:04 pm

You submit plain ASCII and then they re-format it where necessary.

Some people are more die-hard Atari users than others

You and MUG are both right.

You can submit plain ascii and one of us will reformat it as necessary.

But if you want some control over the way the article looks, add pictures to it etc, then it might be useful to get into using the minishell. It's not too hard really

Just curious:
Would you take html formatted articles as well?

Erm, not really.

The minishell has some HTML-like features, but it is not HTML.

So that would be an unnecessary embellishment, if you're in doubt, stick to the plain ascii
