I'm trying to use the NR70 Emulator.
It's based on POSE 3.4 which runs the 515 ROM at a much better clip (not

512MB RAM and Windows XP. That *should* be enough machine for most
jobs, yes?

A good starting point for these algorithms and the algorithm to draw
wider lines is the book "Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice", by
Foley, Van Damm, Feiner and Hu
Section 3.9 talks about approaches to take, but doesn't give example
code.
You might be able to find the code for the book translated into C. It
seems to me I remember finding that once. Anyone else seen this? I
looked but don't have the code samples anymore.

Oh, 'rout66.ro'. I guess shipping would be a bit expensive, wouldn't it?
I'll send you directly my bookmarks that I stumbled across when I was
researching graphics (the group won't let me attach the bookmarks to a
message).
If anyone else needs them, drop me a line.

You're likely looking for 'FrmGetObjectPtr'.

Hi All,
Anyone know if there is any practical difference between Secure Digital
Memory cards and Multimedia Card memory?
The secure digital memory seems to be twice as think (perhaps just over
1mm rather than just under 1mm thick. It's enough so that one of my
players won't accept SD flash cards

Hi All,
I've got a database open with, say 9 records numbered 0-8.
I remove the first record using DmRemoveRecord, and then create another
record with DmNewRecord. I get the uniqueID for the new record and
store it (the unique ID for this record *is* different than that of the
deleted record).

Hi Mike,
Basically, you set up your draw function for the list, and anytime an

If you're going to insist that your user install .pdb files, why not
handle the situation where they forgot/ignored you/didn't read the
readme gracefully?
You have to open those databases, right? If they're not there, you
could handle that return code, and pop up a dialog box saying "Hey
loser,
Hrm, without looking at the code, it's difficult to say, but the docs
say that DmNewResource creates a resource in a given database. The first
arguement is a database pointer. Isn't this the pointer in which the
resource is created?
In detail:
MemHandle DmNewResource(DmOpenRef dbP,DmResType res
Hi Guys,
I'm trying (in vain) to get my head around exactly what makes a function
legal to put into other segments and what doesn't.
I've got a function called 'AdjustScrollbar' defined like this:
void AdjustScrollbar(FieldPtr fld, ScrollBarPtr scl)
{
UInt16 scrollPos, textHeight, fieldH

Hi Geoffrey,
I don't think sysRandomMax can be changed, Geoffrey. What you do
instead is to get the modulus (remainder after division) like this:
short result = SysRandom()%5;
If you're programming a game, you should know that a '%' operation is
actually a divide, and is to be avoided. What yo
For features added beyond OS 2.0, there's a feature that lists whether
it's present or not. To check for Sony High Res functions, do something
like this:
// If Sony, get window system information
if (!FtrGet(sonySysFtrCreator, sonySysFtrNumSysInfoP, (UInt32 *)&infoP))
{
