Robert Anisko'sBetaZinA}e article compares Tetrix,Fortress and Atartris, three popular8-bit Tetris clones. Both of the BitByter articles are fullA} of news aboutthe German club, and of a new club inThe Netherlands. The disk descriptions(disk #23) make me want to look A}at thatdisk myself!

This canbe a very trA}icky project, but a veryrewarding one. You do need a 1 Meg MIObecause the ROM from it must be copied. Joan Ryan's GatebitA}s column is anexcellent illustration of hownetworking on BBSs can help users fromall over the country solve problems. JoaA}n's Bits of Eight column containsmany interesting references, THEMARITY OF THEM DIRECTLY RELATED TOOHAUG. S.L.C.C.

Ed Hall, AAAUA's Canadianmember, describes EnA}gland's Page 6'slatest effort, a magazine with DOMcalled New Atari User. (It's not to beconfused with AtariUser magazine,A} whichis American.) Chuck Leazott's articleabout ICD's closeout sale is reprinted.ACE St. Louis NewsLine for April, 1991A}-- Joan Ryan reviews the 8-bit DOM,which contains two interesting games.

I didn't planit that way, but I didn't get a verylarge stack of newsletters, either. It's also hard to stretA}ch what isn'tthere, and some of the newsletters Ihave for review simply don't havemuch to review. Is the field dryingup?A} Is it just a coincidence thatthis month brings little 8-bit news? I sincerely hope so.Between Bytes for November, 1991A}mentions our disk-based newsletter assomething that the JACS membersshould not forget. This issuementions an article we rA}an aboutbuilding power supplies.The SAGE Scroll for January, 1992 hasrerun JEFF SUMMERS' (Acorn Kernel,January 1990) artA}icle on the role ofCIO in Atari BASIC. Now, honestly,Jeff, how can I get a copy of yourhandler for the W: (Watusi) deviceA}? There is also Jeff's article from Mayabout doing file transfers betweenthe 8-bit and the PC, which I wroteabout in a prA}evious newsletterreview.The January, 1992 LIAUG LightHousecontains PART IV of my article onchoosing modems andtelecommuA}nications software. Thereis a reprint of a Z*NET articlegiving some tips for using a BBS. And, yes, for all of you who trA}ied toanswer my question last month aboutwhich publication is associated withRovac Ind. Inc., I've discovered theanswer iA}n this month's issue of theLIAUG LightHouse! It's F-NET, ofcourse! But, you all knew that. This month's captured articleA}concerns ChromaCad and how to order it.NewsLine (ACE of St. Louis) forJanuary, 1992 reprints ZMAG Issue200's article onA} "The 8-bit State". It's a good summary of the "serious"uses to which our 8-bit can be put,together with a list of softwarA}e todo the job.The January, 1992 issue of (FR)ANTICfeatures an article by LARRY ALLEN onSpartados X Tips, a continuationA} ofALVAN SHERRILL's Beginners' Columnseries of the AtariWriter cartridge,the first of a series on Atari Art bysubscribingA} AAAUA member MATTHEWBAKER, an interesting column by ALVANSHERRILL on the use of the word,"club" to describe AAAUA, RUSSELA}LGIBSON's Left-Overs column, Ed Hall's"What's In A Name", and JAMESMARTIN's, "There I Was".

There is alsoa rA}eprint of an October, 1988 A.C.E.St. Louis Newsline article by MAT*RAT(Matthew Rattcliffe) called, "Orangesand Apples", whA}ich is quite timely inview of opinions I have seenexpressed on FidoNet that the ST wasa "natural upgrade path" for 8-bittA}ers when it came out, and that weall should have switched. It takes aclear head like Matthew's to set therecord straight.A} MICHAEL P. BOROWSKIdescribes a disk management nightmarehe experienced for which we have asolution!

Look for the Library listing from # 116 to about #133. I want to specifically thank: ROWLAND GRA-}NT of GARDEN CITY ACE, in Victoria, Canada, ROBERT BUMAN of S.A.G.E. OF ERIE PA, BRUCE WILLIS of M.A.G.I.C. Des Moines,-} IA, and JOHN KASUPSKI of W.N.Y.A.U.G., Buffalo NY all of whom have helped and offered to continue to help spread the w-}ord for the 8 BIT. each of them are hard working officers of their respective clubs and with whom I have developed a work-}ing pen pal relationship while exchanging ATARI related information These men and others like them are the backbone of t-}he CLASSIC 8 BIT as its called. There are so many others that deserve praise whom I have not mentioned but you basically -}know who this stubborn group of 8BITters are, I'm sure. I am very proud of the many kind references to the OL' HACK-}ERS ATARI USERS GROUP, Inc. that I have read in many newsletters and you can rest assured that our members will conti--} nue to fight the good fight and keep the 8 BIT ATARI alive, by doing all they can. Some while ago one of our members, R-}ON FETZER, put together 3 disks, and at his own expense, made about 50 sets and mailed them out to clubs, for $7.00 to -}the OL' HACKERS or FREE, if the club couldn't afford the $7.00 just to help keep the 8BIT fire burning. Recently RON and -}STAN SCHENFELD collaborated on a new two disk set Program called DISK MANAGE- MENT SYSTEM, which has been reviewed favor-}ably in A.I.M. magazine, and is sold for $6.00 in the U.S.A.. As further proof of our clubs reputation here are s-}ome quotes from a letter from ENGLAND: "May I first congratulate you and your club for the great support you give the A-}TARI 8 BIT computer. I help run a small 8 BIT club here in NEWCASTLE, ENGLAND which has been in existence for over 9 yea-}rs." and "There are two reasons why I am writing to you, firstly my- self and 2 other club members would like to join you-}r very active group because we like whatwe have read and seen of your newsletters etc." All I can say, is THANKS for want-}ing to be a part ofthe OL'HACKERS and for your kind words D.E.-I could go on giving praise to each and every one of the -}club members for their constant eff- orts to always make us a better club but you get the idea, I'm sure. Please re-}member, that when one gets involved in club activities its REWARDING and its a way to LEARN and also FUN. SO IF YOU HAVEN-}'T DONE SO TILL NOW, VOLUNTEER, AND YOU WILL BE AMPLY REWARDED. I know, because its happened to me and all of the OHAUG.} members. >>>>> end <<<<add filename.DOC!(@!(@ #(@#(@ PRINT((@V}((@ WHICH?$)@$(@ >:,D"@I@:@@E:D V}AP"@PA A,@@6##@@P:@'(@'V }ӠĠԛA''? #1;"W1"; ӠĠԛ^[-@@ D:GFLASH.TXT[ԠΠŠƠàV }ՠԠϠĠš"h A|@(@ A@@E% D:GFLASH.TXTV }EԠΠŠƠàŠΠҠϠԠԡ"D:RDPRIDOC.BAS A@@E% D:GFLASH.TXTTH NUMBER IS PRETTIER 2 TO 250)2-@A(e,./AP&P:'@,B/A&APZ }Y/AP:'@,e/2 7D:RECTANGL.BAS./AP&P:'@,B/A&APXFtes of AUGUST 15 & 16, 1992 for the BIG CONNECTICUT ATARI FEST-to be held at the big SHERATON HOTEL, at the BRADLF}EY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT,-WINDSOR LOCKS> Connecticut near HARTFORD.

ROLANDsaid he sent us these articles because"THE OL' HACKERS IS SIGNIFICANT IN THE8-BIT COMMUNb}ITY". ALEX responded that this is aletter from heaven for an editor. ALEXthanked him for this great offer, anhb}e told ROWLAND that now that thereare very few commercial sources forour computer, the Newsletters are theonly reab}l source of information.

A letter to JOHN KASUPSKI ofWNYAUG where ALEX congratulates him onthe quality of the newsletter and inb}particular on his 8 part series"BASIC101".

ALEX was down on all 3 counts! ALEX next demoed a program calledDOSWIZ.OBJ, that requires atranslatorb}. We used the ULTRATRANSLATOR which is the best in ouropinion. This program will check yourdisk and find out b} if there are anymissing sectors. You can reclaim themetc. It has most of the DOS functionsavailable for you. This ib}s a disk youshould have. You can zero unusedsectors, you can restore deletedprograms, you can have a disk b} mapetc. ALEX then demoed a program calledMENU2BIN.BAS. It runs BASIC and M/Lprograms. The great thing about thb}isprogram you can write a shortdescription and save it. It will showthe directory and the description ofthe fb}ile. A neat program that shouldbe in everybodies main workinglibrary. ALEX next demoed a great RENUMBERutib}lity that renumbers your programalmost instantly. RENUMBER.BAS ALEX demoed PSLABEL7. This cansaves your labels b}with its ICON. It isthe latest PS Labels program that wehave at this time. ALEX showed PSUTILY.BAS. You canlist yb}our Icons on the screen or inprint. You can rename them. You canchange printer type etc. ALEX showed an ANTIC b} type menuutility. Great for many programs. Itloads BASIC or M/L programs. We saw ALEX's SIDEPRNT.BASprogrb}am. Prints letters down the leftside of the paper. Great for SPINELABELS. ALEX showed us PSET82. This isprogb}ram that lets you set up yourEPSON printer for various printstyles. We saw CUSTMPRT.MOD it prints outeveb}rything including inverse and ASCIIsymbols etc. We also saw DATA-X data baseprogram from ANTIC. We saw a b}double sided disk onNUMEROLOGY.
