Boards around the World. No Charge may be put upon the distribution of
MAGREAD. NTERGAID has its own HyperBoard for the exchange of Hypertext
Documents at (203)-366-5698. At a time when the capabilities of Black Magic
expand, sooner than you think, it may be neccessary to obtain a new version
from this number.
Thank You...
The Files in MAGREAD.ARC and MAGDEMO.ARC come to about 720K on a harddisk. If
You Include the ARC files themself then you'll need 1.2 Meg on you harddisk.
If you need to use less disk space then first unarc only files MAGREAD.*
Then unarc the files in one of the groups specified in MAGREAD.DOC out of
MAGDEMO.ARC into your FILES subdirectory
Some Computer setups have incurred a lock up of the program before it gets
started. This is due to a setup of a mouse interface on a system that is
not using MOUSE.COM but for some reason is using some alternative program in
its place(mouse driver or other). As a remedy for this add the command
'-NOMOUSE' on the command line when starting MAGREAD. (See below example)
C:\MAGIC>magread -nomouse
Known culprits are computers with CGA emulation graphics. Some COMPAC's have
this problem.
Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
