|    Model III Emulators    |

      From: seafox@gypsyheir.com              I've been having a fairly non-stop headache getting my files off some Model       III disk images.              First, the functional details. I have several files that I either created in       basic a while back or created as text files in Excaliber's program Edit.       I've been trying to get these files off the images created by Readdisk, but       I have been unable to find an emulator that works well enough to run       programs on an XP system, has the capability to print files or copy data to       the clipboard, and reads things in a native enough format that a screen       reader can parse the output. (I lost my sight almost six years ago and have       been unable to locate it in the intervening time)              So, I either need to find an emulator that will print or copy to the       clipboard on a Windows XP system while letting my screen reader access the       info, or I need to find a kind soul that will will help me out with getting       these files translated to txt documents. Edit is quite intuitive once you       use Clear+O to access the help menu, plus it's a plain text format so it       should probably open up in any text editor or word processor. I've tried       pulling data from the raw disk images, and I get some success with it, but       things are rather hashed. I spent five hours recently cleaning up one file       this way, and even then some of the text of the file was junked so that I       had to get a sighted person to look at the file in an emulator )that I can't       access and won't print) to get the missing text out.              Any assistance/advice would be greatly appreciated.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
