5224.0. "ABEL, anyone have the latest catalog?" by CSSE32::SMITH (Recreational Pcyclepath...) Wed Nov 20 1991 16:24

Does anyone have a newer ABEL catalog?  The one on EOT is from June 90.  If you
have one an upload would be appreciated.

Thanks,

5224.3HOW TO PRINTGLDOA::LAETZThu Nov 21 1991 12:193
    Does anyone know once I copy this over to my VMS account, what I have
    to do to print it?  Is it postscript?  What commands will allow me to
    print this properly??
5224.4just a text fileDECWET::DAVISMark W. Davis 206.865.8749Thu Nov 21 1991 12:285
    Just type $print or if you have a favorite queue type $print/que=.
    It is just a text file.

    $PRINT DOES NOT WORK (STILL PRINTS GARBLE)
    
    A clarification on what I am trying to do.
    
    I did a "COPY FILENAME" at the $ sign
    
    I did both a "$ PRINT FILENAME"
    
       and
    
    PRINT/QUEUE=KZO$8P5_LN03R/PARAM=DATA=POST FILENAME
    
    BOTH GAVE ME GARBLE.
    
    Help, Please
5224.7Extract it from the archive file first.ULTRA::BURGESSMad Man across the waterThu Nov 21 1991 14:4122

	Try this

$ lharc x filename.lzh

	if that gives any kind of a crc or check-sum error try this

$ cvtarc u filename.lzh
$ lharc x filename.lzh

	watch the file names that it says it is extracting from the 
archive, then select the one that looks most likely and browse it with 
your favorite editor - if it looks more or less right then print it.
BTW, it will probably say something about non-standard file format, 
you can ignore that as long as it looks OK with the editor.

5224.8Sorry 'bout that!DECWET::DAVISMark W. Davis 206.865.8749Thu Nov 21 1991 14:434
    I assumed that you dearchived the textfile first...

5224.9I give up!GLDOA::LAETZThu Nov 21 1991 16:479
    I give up.  This must be more difficult than I can do.  I tried the
    directions that you said, but it is not working.  I am simply giving
    up.  It is most likely more technical than I expected, and I don't HAVE
    to have it.  I am simply trying to get a good price on a Panasonic
    1124i, and this may not even be something that will help me.
    
    Thank you, again,

5224.10don't give up that easily...WHAMMY::spodarykFor three strange days...Thu Nov 21 1991 18:214
The latest catalogs don't appear to carry much Panasonic gear.
A couple of camera related parts, a editing VCR, and no printers.

You could try calling them at: Store (Voice)  (615) 577-5100
