    X11 and nedit

    I *think* in Tiger, the -X option was changed. I experienced a similar problem -- try using -Y instead of -X. I hope this helps. And, your English is fine.

    X11 Remote

    I have found that using either the -X or the -Y option with ssh is quick way to get display securely routed to my local terminal.

    Best headset?

    Thx. I went with logitech USB 250. An inexpensive USB headset. Doesn't require additional batteries (as I believe plantronics models did). So far, works great with skype.

    fortran developer studio

    This is followup to my above post. I have *just* now discovered XCode. [I feel a bit sheepish for having failed to consider it as an option for developing fortran code. I looked at it a wee bit when I first got my mac...] Anyway -- Has anybody ever used XCode for developing fortran code...

    eudora: text of emails lost

    It was only my eudora files that were lost. I have been unable to recover them; I have resigned myself to the fact that, somehow, I have corrupted these files. Luckily, I haven't damaged anything else. I'm sorry -- I'm still quite new with macs. And so, I cannot offer any advice to help...

    fortran developer studio

    Would anybody who knows please recommend open-source/free developer studio for programming in Fortran. I have dabbled a *wee* bit with Eclipse.org and its Photran plug-in. I am looking for options please. If you know of *any* studios (regardless of whether they're available for mac)...

    safari crashes when tabbing between fields

    Could you help me to solve an annoying problem? *Most* of the time, when I try to "tab" between fields (in an online form, for instance), safari crashes. I am running a G4 Powerbook with OSX 10.4.4. Safari is v.2.0.3 thx Christopher

    How can I share photos among other accounts on same Mac?

    Use the directory/folder: HardDrive/Users/Shared I have multiple users on my Mac -- we are able to share files via this folder. There may be a more eloquent solution so that all the users on your mac have access to the same pictures directory. Better leave it to a more expert Mac user to...

    static IP via wireless

    Is it possible (and does anybody know how) to setup a wireless hub to provide static IPs? The IPs will be WAN assigned (not local IPs). I would like to do this using either Apple or other (dlink, linksys, etc) hardware -- whichever works. thx

    Bluetooth Apple Mouse

    My bluetooth mouse has stopped working properly. 1. Bluetooth recognises the mouse -- clicks are registered and function properly. However, there is *no* tracking. 2. Firmware updater doesn't seem to work. It returns the message: "This Bluetooth device is not supported. This computer...

    TeXShop -- paper size & formatting

    I don't believe that preamble is the source of the problem (it is included below anyway). Whenever I LaTeX my files on Unix setup, the .pdf document appears as it should. Using the *exact* same .tex files, but LaTeX-ing in TeXShop, the text is shifted downward on the page approximately 3/4...

    TeXShop -- paper size & formatting

    I am having trouble with paper size selection in TeXShop. I'm running OSX Panther. Whenever I LaTeX my documents in TeXShop, paper size seems to be incorrect -- text runs all they way to the bottom (as if it's TeX-ing for A4 then displaying on letter size paper). This problem doesn't occur...

    Neverwinter nights

    Thanx. I'm not going to play online -- just want to play on my own computer. I have tried all zeros, and a random set of all letters -- both were rejected as being invalid keys. Still, I'm unable to play my game. Is there any sort of format for the key (all numbers, all letters, ???)...
