avoid conflicting with two other applications named BeamMeUp. When
beaming, this works best when the person who wants to receive sets their
Newton in receive beams automatically.

Newt to alpanumeric pagers served by a system that will accept pages in
TAP's manaual format. TAP specifies two ways in which pages can be sent, a
manual procedure and an automatic procedure. BeepMe implements TAP's
manual mode since it's much simpler than the automatic prodecure. BeepMe
works with my paging service's implementation of TAP's manual mode. I have
no idea about how consistent paging systems' implementations of TAP's
manual mode are.

 Burrito Beamer - This is an interesting Newton app, where you just select
the items you want on your burrito, and send you order! Now if your local
custom taqueria has a Sharp RY5AR021 Enhanced-Range Infrared Data Receiver

receive large numbers of mail messages on my newt without runnin out of
RAM (I've got a 100, and, once the names are on, there's only 'bout 50-60k
left.) It has NOT been rigorously tested, so be warned. Don't worry,
though, it's pretty benign. It does two things - All incoming stuff (mail
and beams) is stored in the default store, rather than the internal RAM.
The default store can be set by checking the Store new items on card
checkbox in the card slip. The In Box, Out Box, Connection slip and Card

NewtonMails views non-floating, so that the clipboard and things like
Erica Saduns Figgles keyboard are no longer disabled, and sets (after a
delay) the font and size to your default. Use with caution. Sometimes
works only partially in Dates. There are two other design errors I couldnt
fix - Undo isnt supported when you need it most, and the Close box
sometimes means Save Changes and sometimes means Discard Changes. The
conjunction of these last two NewtonMail misfeatures and MailFixs working
only partially in Dates can be particularly annoying. Version 0.40d1 now

 MailJam - This removes the mail items from the Newton's internal queue that
the Newton still thinks it needs to download. If you break the receiving
mail connection in the middle of a large file the Newton keeps track of
this and wants to help you out by starting off where it left off the last
time. This can become a problem especially if it is a very large file and
you are using a MP0 or MP100 with very limited internal ram. So, this
package will remove the items from the Newton queue so that you can
download the next message.

 Mail Numbers 1.0demo - With a NewtonMail account, a Newton, a modem, and a
phone line you can stay in touch no matter where you go. Unfortunately,
accessing NewtonMail while you are on the go isn't as easy as using the
Newton itself. The biggest problem is that, as you move around the
country, the phone number you have to dial to access NewtonMail changes
from city to city. Of course, Apple provides a booklet listing all of the
current NewtonMail phone numbers for each city, but that booklet takes up
valuable travel space. Wouldn't it be great if there were a piece of

 Description:
 MailPhones 0.9 - MailPhones maintains a soup of NewtonMail access telephone
numbers and allows you to change your current access number easily. When
the app starts up for the first time it looks for your current location
and NewtonMail access telephone number (as set in Time Zones and Prefs)
and creates a soup with those items as the only entry. Perhaps it is an
unjustified assumption that the two go together, but you can edit either
or both if you need to. After the first time that MailPhones starts up, it
checks the list of cities and local access numbers that you've told it
about and displays the city name (if it knows it) that goes with the
telephone number that's currently specified for NewtonMail.

group programming project - a program to convert current Australian
telephone numbers to Austel's new 8 digit numbering scheme. Yes, all
Australian Telephone numbers are changing to 8 (eight, count 'em!) over
the next three or four years, with many areas in the major cities of
Sydney & Melbourne changing by July 1995! At the same time, many area
codes are changing to a much simplified two-digit code (e.g. all of NSW
will be 02, all of Victoria 03 etc). Version 1.1 works for ALL numbers
(i.e. it will convert any valid Australian number, as long as it is
entered with the both area code and number).

 Post Office 2.0 - Post Office allows you to maintain, and switch between
sets of NewtonMail locations and access numbers. It came about because I

 Description:
 Pour - Pour is a little utility that will allow you to choose any soup from
the available stores on your Newt (or an onion  er  union soup if you have
a card) and will pour it down the serial port at 9600-8-N-1. Pour sends
the soup as text, with frames enclosed between braces and their entries
labeled and arrays enclosed between square brackets. Pour came about for
two reasons. First, I wrote a little app to keep track of the hours I
spend working for my various clients (anyone who would like a copy, please
ask  I haven't distributed it just because I haven't yet decided just what
I want to do with it) and then realized that I probably didn't want to let
the data accumulate in my Newt forever. Hence Pour!

 Description:
 SonyRemote 1.01 - SonyRemote is a Newton Compatible application that allows
you to use the InfraRed transmitter on a Newton to control some Sony
consumer electronics devices. The VCR codes control a Sony Beta VCR from
the reports I have received. Most codes from the CD player, Tape Deck,
Television, Amplifier and Tuner work, I think the shift is non-functional
on the tuner. I have left it in just in case it works on someone's tuner.
The volume control also appears to behave very slowly (at least for me) on
the tuner. It should remember the position on the screen and the last used
remote between uses. I got SonyRemote to work 22 feet away!

not sure they work yet. Pick a remote, and control the on/off, volume, and
channels for your TV. There are also programmable buttons for your
favorite channels such as MTV, PBS... The scripting is a little like modem
strings. So, V+ C23 might mean, Up the volume and switch to channel 23.

 TekIO 1.1 Demo - TekIO is a faceless application that facilitates text
import/export via the serial port for the Notepad application - Exporting
text - connect the serial cable, startup the receiving software, select
Text out in the Notepad's Action menu. That's it! The serial port
parameters are not configurable; they are 9600-N-8-1 with software flow
control. TekIO may conflict with other Newton applications that hack the
Notepad's Action Menu. TekIO will play the crumple sound after it finishes
importing/exporting text and is closing the connection. Don't send large (
> 4kbyte ) text files, they seem to break the Notepad application.

 YAPI 1.02 - YAPI is a Newton application that transfers packages to the

AppleTalk, as other package downloaders do, packages can be sent from
communications software available on most PCs and workstations. Connect a
cable between the host and the Newton (more about cables below). Start the
comms software on the host (PROCOMM, Zterm, sb, ..., whatever can do
Xmodem). Setup the comms software to do Xmodem transfers with 128 byte
blocks and checksum error detection. Initiate the Xmodem transfer on the
host, then click on the Download button in the YAPI window on the Newton.

because of an incompatibility. The Newton requires Class 1 Fax commands
and the ZyXEL doesn't seem to support these. If you get faxing to work I
would appreciate some email so that I can update the documentation. After
the modem enabler is installed you can install various modem setups. This
