avoid conflicting with two other applications named BeamMeUp. When

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

sometimes means Save Changes and sometimes means Discard Changes. The

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

 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.

 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!

Magnavox TV. There is also an area for Mitsubishi TV and Sony TV, but I'm
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.

http://www.allpen.com/nethopper-api to extend the functionality of your
Newton in two useful ways. Primarily, I wrote the package to give me quick
access to AltaVista(http://www.altavista.com; with this package installed,
in addition to finding materials on your Newton PDA with the Newton Find
slip, you can also select a Web option, which performs an AltaVista search
on the topic you've entered. It'll also provide some quick-launch tools
from the default caret menu, so you can easily select and browse a URL
you've noted down. Web Extensions requires a Newton 2.0 running NetHopper
2.0 or later. It has been tested on an MP120 and an MP130.

 WebJump 1.2 - allows you to launch URLs from within the Names application
of your MessagePad(tm). WebJump(tm) requires NOS2.x and will not run on
pre-NOS2.x systems. Also, because it launches URLs, it assumes you have
NIE installed, as well as a web browser. WebJump works with the following
browsers: NewtsCape and NetHopper. If you have both installed, it will use
NewtsCape. WebJump also lets you send a URL from Names to a URL repository

words from an Internet server via NewtonMail (eWorld) or AmericaOnline

stored internally in the WordADay database (soup), or added to the
recognition dictionary of the Newton. Each word comes complete with a
definition and occassionally a quote/comment from the A.Word.A.Day
internet server. Words can be printed, faxed, mailed, or even beamed to
another Newton running WordADay. WordADay supports scrolling using the
up/down arrows of the Newton, as well as supporting the Find function,...

 Description:
 YAPI 1.02 - YAPI is a Newton application that transfers packages to the
Newton using the Xmodem protocol. Since it does not require MNP or
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.
There is a progress bar in the YAPI window that gives a rough estimate...

use with Version 1.0 (and later?) of the Newton(tm) modem enabler. I
believe that it will work with the Newton Mail but I have no confirmation
of that as of yet. I'm pretty sure that it will not allow you to fax
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
file contains a setup for the ZyXEL modem and will add a line to the
Connect with and Remove Modem Setup items in the modem...
