Hi, I use Arachne only a short time but I like it. But don't you know how to setup Arachne to use alternative PPP driver ? I would like to use it with the...
... No problem. I am online with Arachne and Lsppp right now. Here's how to do it in Arachne.cfg Connection @lsppp.exe /?>NUL Hangup @lsppp.exe /u>NUL [dialer]...
Hi ???? (please sign your messages;-), the easiest way to install LSPPP is to use my LSPPPCFG package. This will convert your EPPPD configuration to LSPPP in a...
... Since I started the "codepages and signed char" thread, I just cannot say 'no' ;-) But when we are talking about the type macros, I would like to hear...
Hi all, The more I am looking into WWWMAN, the more I find things that need fixing: (1) Already known: Stacker detection will crash if there is a drive with...
Hi Michal, ... Well, you certainly have the bull by the horns! Your understanding of these issues is so much more advanced than mine that there's little I can...
Hi Ray, ... This seems to be a fairly reliable test; not 100%, but very close to. Much closer than the original one. ... Oh, again some $#|T! ... A good idea...
... Hah! ... you're not out of the woods either. I can just hear that nasty old Glenn chuckling to himself < g g g g >. But, like me, you seem to have the '5...
Maybe this is a totally dumb question ... ... <snip> ... WHY??? Where is wwwman going to be used besides Arachne? This is DOS we're speaking of folks, and in...
Hi Ray! ... Sorry Ray, but you missed the joke. I put this $#|T! (read: "S-H-I-T") manually, replying to the line above. Now, Glenn is probably ROTFL <G>. ...
... Haven't you ever used a computer which has been set up by someone else? Think also about booting Arachne from a floppy on someone's else machine, when the...
Q: When is a "char" not a "char"? A: When it's a "signed char"! <g> Personally, I'm happy with the suggested "byte", "word", "dword" (all unsigned) and...
Well, I'm glad to see Michal is going to do something with "wwwman" - that thing is a mess! Way down on my "to do" list was (is?;-) : Rewrite "wwwman" from...

Hi Joe, ... Good idea! ... Good questions -- I was just passing Bernie's suggestion along, not saying I agree with it. Things would probably be simpler, and...
... 5 bootable partitions? Do you mean 5 primary partitions visible at the same time? Haven't you ever had any trouble with this under MS-DOS? I observed that,...
... Yes, because in BC "short int" is the same as "int" (16 bits). The 8-bit meaning of "shortint" may be only understood by TP users. ... Agreed. ... ...
... If not in C, then in what? If I write a program from scratch, I normally use Pascal at the "top level" and assembler at the "bottom level" as needed (and...
Since I didn't find any response to my 'dumb question' I'll instead respond a bit to Ray's post. At my age I have no problem remembering that my V: drive is my...
I questioned two C-coders here about signed v. unsigned char. Neither was sure what the standard/default for char was. Well, a quick 'net search revealed the...
