Drushel / o other people, not me, right!     Wrong, the SMARTWRITER directory was trashed.  And I needed to copy several files off of it, to send to Jerry Vrancks.  Most of the other many, many files (250?) were just letters of correspondence that I did not need.  But there were a few that I desperately wanted to retrieve.     So, after donning my Surgeon garb, I began the "Campaign to Reclaim" my precious files.  Using FILEMANAGER as my scalpel, I sliced away the directory's shroud with the EDIT BLOCK function. ADAMserve  Uªÿ BOOT       DIRECTORY  ØOhNoALEFTNGofH97A97AµSubscribeA	AC09updA

Something I have successfully avoided doing for a long time.  I could then use my newly acquired knowledge to read exactly where on the Hard Disk Drive the files I need are residing.  Block copy them to a space on a floppy disk I have allocated for each file, and I'm done.     I found all the information I needed in my copy of the MAINE ADAM LIBRARY's 'ADAM PROGRAMMING GUIDE'.  So, to make a long story short, I found that using FIL OH NO, NOT ME TOO!    by Gene Welch     Getting a "Not an EOS media" message from FILEMANAGER doesn't necessarily spell disaster.  Heck, it could be I'd accidently placed a TDOS disk in the drive.  But, when FILEMANAGER popped this message up after I'd asked it to display the directory of the SMARTWRITER volume on my Hard DIsk Drive, it was a disaster!     By why me?  I had just finished reading ANN Editor, Bob Slopsema's article on his Hard Disk Drive dilemna.  Disasters such as these only happen t The first few blocks of which looked just fine.  I soon discovered it was the end of the directory that was messed up.  The BLOCKS LEFT entry was weird, plus their were two files named ??????.???.  Where did they come from?     No matter, I fixed the BLOCKS LEFT entry, and felt confident this would do the trick.  But FILEMANAGER didn't agree, once again popping up with "Not an EOS media".  I had failed and my precious files were still locked up.  So close, yet so far away.     I immediately decided to EMANAGER to view the contents of the disk, that the START BLOCK of a file is the sixteenth and seventeenth bytes of a file entry.  Just start counting from the first letter/number of the file name you want.  Also, the LENGTH is the eighteenth and nineteenth bytes.     Remember, these values are in hexadecimal and in High-byte Low-byte format..  So you will have to convert them to decimal.  To do this, first convert the individual numbers to decimal using a conversion chart, scientific calculator, etc..  Thelped the ADAM community as a whole.  I believe it was Pat Herrington that said: "Pretend you writting a book about the ADAM computer from the time it was orphaned by COLECO untill the present.  Whos names would be in your book?"     Those are the people we should be voting for.   WHO HAVE WE MISSED?     Following is a list of a few people we may have overlooked in the past.  By no means are these people the only ones deserving this award.

Fowler of Adam's HouseThe  ADAM'S DESK TOP program from Walters Software  Company brings  a new modern way for Adam users to use their  computer. The EOS operating system that every Adam contains was one of  the first graphic operating systems available for any home computer.  ADAM'S DESK TOP uses a modified EOS operating system with options that include a ramdisk setup, initiate and reset, the standard Adam operating system with or without dot matrix priThe parts of a computer that can be kicked. KEYBOARD: An instrument used for entering errors into a system. LANGUAGE: A system of organizing and defining error messages. LOOP: see loop. MACHINE-INDEPENDENT PROGRAM: A program which will not run on  any machine. MICROCOMPUTER: One millionth of a computer. NULL STRING: Result of a four-hour database search. ON-LINE: The idea that a human being should always be accessible. PASSWORD: The nonsense word taped to your terminal. PERFORMANCE: A statement of the spee ramdisk load and save options for fast setup or saving of the ramdisk contents.  And, Walters has provided the fast loading machine language program on both disk/datapack and Cartridge formats.When the disk or datapack is placed in the drive the ADAM'S DESK TOP loads quickly to the introductory SmartKEY Screen.  The cart- ridge version is loaded instantly by pulling the Game Reset Switch.  With the cartridge left in the Game Slot it becomes a part of Adam for immediate access.

Select Ramdisk Tools to init.  This file along with the BASICPGM program name for SmartBASIC will allow the program to boot from disk, data- pack, or ramdisk.  The advantage of this is that it doesn't matter where the files are located on the medium, and you can put many boot programs on one disk, datapack or ramdisk.  Included on the Adam's Desk Top medium are three boot files for Coleco programs:  AdamLink II, SmartLetters and Forms, and FlashCard Maker.  It is advisable to also have utility programs like contained on SmartDSK III'smdisk directory intact.  The LOAD Ramdisk option will copy a disk or datapack contents to the ramdisk.  You must first prepare the medium by copying your programs that you wish to load onto a freshly initialized tape or disk.  You may also copy files to the Ramdisk from other tapes or disk.  The SAVE Ramdisk option copies the contents of the ramdisk to the selected disk or datapack.The BOOT MENU allows you to Boot Drives, selecting the operating system, SmartDSK, Adam printer or Dot Matrix printer.

A new name may be assigned at the time of the copy.  When copying a file to be used with a Boot File, the program file name must be exactly the same or the program will not boot.  The Make Boot option will allow you to make a boot file that will boot a file loading program (like SmartBASIC).  A new suffix is assigned to the file name (BASIC1.FL)iate, reset, load or save to the ramdisk.  Select Boot Tools to boot a program, a drive, or go to SmartWRITER.  Select Copy Tools to make a backup of your media, files, or to set up a boot file.

Using the RESET Ramdisk option allows you to reselect the full size or reserve one bank option, keeping the files already in the ra TOOLKIT at your disposal.  We also recommend FILE MANAGER V2 as an excellent Utility Program Package that is easy to use.

Remove  the old ribbon, it is taped to the  hubs  with  a   leader. You might want to notice the tension of the spring where it attaches  at  the bottom of the right hub.   It  should  move   easily and the tension can be adjusted with a slight bend.   Next   comes  the actually  installation of the new ribbon on  the spool. The spools are the same size on each ribbon, so the empty  spool   can press out the new spool's hub on the original Adam Ribbon, takÌ1 ×75ARTICLE RELOADING A SPENT RIBBON FOR THE ADAM PRINTER  by Terry R Fowler of Adam's House           The  ADAM  Printer  Ribbon was made the same  shape  as  the  so-called Hytype  I  and a Xerox Ribbon, so they fit  the  ADAM  Daisy   Wheel  printer,  too.  They are slightly thicker, but  latch into the original and newer type print heads used in the Adam printer.    The  only  problem  is  that these ribbons are  no  longer  being  manufactured  and will soon join the Coleco Ribbon in the ranks o.   With  all pieces back into position,   reassemble  the  case   by pressing the top shell back on the  bottom  shell  and  replacing the O-Ring. Just make sure that the dull side of the Ribbon  is facing the paper when you type and  you're  ready  to   reuse the cartridge.One  of  the most common problems associated with  the  ADAM   Printer  is that the ribbon stops advancing and the print  fades, or  fades in and out.  Most of the time it is because  the  Print   Head   cannot  pull the ribbon from tob holds  and moves  the   ribbon  to the take-up reel, from right hub to left, and  how  the   O-Ring turns the take-up reel to take out the slack of the advancing  ribbon.   On the right side resides the fresh  ribbon spool   with  the ribbon routed through a tension spring that takes some  of   the  tugging and jerking motion out  of  the   ribbons  advance  Notice  how  ribbon  routes through this small  pulley.   Now  to   disassemble and replace the old spent spool with fresh ribbon.Carefully  take TE!  the complete list is on the Apr ANN disk .....for those of you that save disks!  :) tter.  It allows SmartWRITER and other programs to be setup with a ramdisk and Dot Matrix printer.  It includes BOOT TOOLS that allow you to boot almost any program from the ramdisk, and a media can now contain as many bootable programs that there is room for.  COPY TOOLS allow you to backup a larger drive to a smaller drive by using more than one disk or datapack.  There are quicking its place, or simply fit in place of the old spool in the Xerox or Hytype I ribbon.  This can be accomplished  by hand.  It is not necessary that every last  loop of  new ribbon be transferred, so just cut any excess  still  attached  to the pancake's hub and press the ribbon flush with  the spool's  edge.  Now untape the leader of the pancake and feed  it through the spring and rest of the track, taping it to the take-up  hub  so that the motion  of  both  reels is clockwise as the   ribbon    advancesf being obsolete.  Save those cartridges.  They easily come apart and can   be  RELOADED  with  ribbon pancakes.These Ribbons all  have six  points that pin the shells together which may  be  separated   with a fingernail or small screwdriver, evenly with slight  pressure at each pin until the shells separate.  You must remove  the   O-Ring  from the pulleys prior to separation, and be careful  not to  dislodge the mechanism so that you can see how to  reassemble   it.   Notice  how  the ribbon advance knhe fresh side to  the  take- up side  any  longer.  Often the ribbon is at fault,  and  releasing   some  tension on the spring guide on the bottom hub of the  right   spool  will  cure the condition.  It usually happens  when  about   two-thirds  of  the fresh spool has been used, and  people  throw   away  a  cartridge that still has good ribbon left to use  --  it   just won't advance.  If this doesn't work, then an adjustment  to   the  print head ribbon advance solenoid spring located under  the   cartt  in  the scope of this  program. The  program is written in Basic and contains good error   trap ping routines,  the ability to get back to the main  menu,  abort commands at any time and uses color  appropriately. It is obvious that  the developers put a lot  of work in this program and  have produced a quality  product.  The instruction manual is also well written and  comprehensive. The  main menu screen provides the ability to go to the  follow ing sub-programs: I.  CATALOG - allows the displaying    save  some  money and insure fresh ribbons for the  near  future.    How long with our stock of Ribbon Cartridges last?  How long will   our  supply  of pancakes last?  Both answers  are  unknown.   You   might   consider  a  small  supply just  in  case  while  they're  available. make a boot file that will boot a file loading program (like SmartBASIC).  A new suffix is assigned to the file name (BASIC1.FL)y files as follow:        1. abandon / abandonar / (vb)        2. abbreviate  / abreviar / (vb)  IV. SEARCH - You enter the file name, then either the  English or Spanish word.  The translation and type is then  displayed like a dictionary, if the word is on the file V.  CREATE FILE - This allows you to create your own  vocabulary file using the structure defined above. There  is also a nice utility program provided that allows   you to copy your vocabulary files from tape to disk, tape  to another tapÌ1 ×67 The Spanish VocabularianBy Terry Fowler of Adam's House This program by Marathon Computer Press is geared to  aid the Spanish student build their skills through drill  practice. The program  package  comes  with 16 files  containing  100  English words,  the  Spanish  translation and  the word  type  (noun,adj, etc.) each for a total of 1600  words.  You also have the ability to add words of your own  to expand the files.  As the  instruct ions  state,  phonetics   and sentence structure are noridge  slot will usually resolve the problem (the problem  is   that  the  solenoid will not return to rest and engage  the  next   gear  of the advance mechanism).  Many of the old Coleco  Ribbons   were  drying out, causing print fade in and out, too -- so  don't   discount that you old ribbon is a dud.  We have fresh ribbons  in   seal-packs and fresh pancakes for reloadsThe   ADAM  Printer is a good workhorse.   It needs  some   care,   and adjustments at times.  With the reload pancakes you can  evenof the catalog of files   on the  monitor.  This is needed since you have to specify  the file name to load in a word list. II.  TEST - This is a drill - you can choose English to  Spanish or  vice  versa.  You must specify the file name  (there  are  16 files,  organized by the starting letter - A,   B,  etc.) You are given the word and the type and must give  the translation.   The number correct and the percentage is  displayed as you go. III.  PRINT - You can print the contents of any of the  vocabular.  This file along with the BASICPGM program name for SmartBASIC will allow the program to boot from disk, data- pack, or ramdisk.  The advantage of this is that it doesn't matter where the files are located on the medium, and you can put many boot programs on one disk, datapack or ramdisk.  Included on the Adam's Desk Top medium are three boot files for Coleco programs:  AdamLink II, SmartLetters and Forms, and FlashCard Maker.  It is advisable to also have utility programs like contained on SmartDSK III'se,  etc..  There is also a program called  FIXAFILE that prov ides  the ability to change the words on  an existing  file.  You need  a print of the file (pee III  above) to get the  number  of the word to change.  Overall,  I think this is a good package of programs.  Not  only does it provide the 1600 Spanish/English words for  use in drill ing  but it provides the capability to make your  own  vocabulary list  and in fact,  the CREATE and FIXAFILE  programs can be used to  create  any type of database  "  2 - Medium (20x15)" 90 HTAB 5:?

Many       times, when a person retires, there is a sense of loss with respect to      that portion of life which has just ceased to exist. It's actually been     known to kill people. Just talked to a friend of mine this morning who      said that it took him about 6 months to re-define his life. In my own case  it took maybe 6 minutes.

Around here all I have to do is raise mine eyes unto   the surrounding mountainsides to see real estate covered with snow, and     that suffices quite nicely. But as you're quite well aware, Mother Nature now and then decides to kick  butt. No need to quote Barry Wilson.
