From ben.jemmett at ukonline.co.uk Mon Sep 20 03:43:11 2010 From: ben.jemmett at ukonline.co.uk (Ben A L Jemmett) Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2010 11:43:11 +0100 Subject: [GEM Development] GEM Scan (was: FW: Hello) Message-ID: <2BE3306DF7004662A6B4CDF7FB243C8E@JSD.jemmettsoftware.co.uk> Hello all, The list server bounced the below message to me yesterday evening, as it included a large attachment. It should definitely be of interest to at least one of our number apart from myself! Rather than risk an avalanche of 'message too large' bounces, I've removed the attachment and uploaded it to a temporary home at: http://flatpack.microwavepizza.co.uk/scratch_pub/GEMScan.zip Many thanks to Dr. Kasten for this contribution of long-lost software; now if anybody has a supported scanner (it appears to include drivers for the Canon IX-12 and the Princeton LS300) we can get some proper nostalgia going... Gene, could you drop me a note and remind me of my login details for deltasoft so I can upload it there? Either they've changed or I've forgotten them *coughs in embarrassment* Regards, Ben A L Jemmett. http://flatpack.microwavepizza.co.uk/ _____ From: M.Kasten [mailto:Dr.Kasten at t-online.de] Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2010 11:04 PM To: gem-dev at simpits.org Subject: Hello Hello, i?m not a programmer, but for more nostalgic reasons i?m looking for everything about GEM. I?ve seen, that some of the members are searching for the application GEM Scan. I have one and send it to you for further purpose, e.g. put it to one of the official GEM websites. It is the version GEM Scan 2.0g. I couldn?t try it, because i have no aproppriate Scanner, but i hope it works. Along with the software i attached a PDF from the manual (sorry, in german, but many pictures). The file SCANPREP.TXT was corrupt, because in can read it from the original diskette, but couldn?t copy it (miracle). I wrote a new and hope it works. Next time i will make a list of the other GEM programs i have and send it to you. When there is somewhat of interest for someone i will send it to the community.

See folks .. I was NOT crazy! It DOES exist! As for the old scanners, themselves .. ten yr.s ago I could have gotten any of you, any one - or ALL - of them when I worked at E.R.S. ("E" Recycling). I remember those names on them in a stack collecting dust - LOTS of dust. I haven't seen one of them at my friend's Unitec Recycling, in the years I've visited there. Maybe, I've seen ONE ScanJet Plus (gray scale capable vn. of The ScanJet) but not the others. At this point, who cares? We HAVE the software, at last! Using the 'Scanjet' driver, set your (SCSI) based scanner to black-white, "extremely high"?(say, 120 dpi ;-) ; in all cases < < 360dpi) resolution (NO interpolation, what your settings are, is what you scan at!), and save as *.img. You say THAT doesn't work? [Gulp. What do you MEAN by, "your software doesn't ALLOW saving as *.img" ??!! :-( ] I 'browsed' the manual (pdf) and saw NO notice of memory requirements (that I could recognize). Dr. Kasten, does it request Extended Memory? (This reply was posted to "Drafts", accidentally, some days ago.)

The manual says really nothing about memory requirements, so i think that extended memory is not needed. 2.)

For finding the GEM Scan, Mit tiefer Dankbarkeit! (With the help of ?http://german.about.com/od/vocabulary/a/danke10ways.htm ) Some years back, I 'idiotically' translated E. C. G .Pascual Jordon's quantum theory book's title as Introduction to Intuitive Quantum Theory. (At least, as far as I can remember, that was it.) Unlike his colleagues' (Max Born and, of course, Werner Heisenberg) /popularized/ books on quantum theory, P.J.'s was never translated into English. He co-created Quantum Mechanics (in its 'matrix' formulation) and INVENTED? the idea of Quantum Fields. I wish Springer-Verlag WOULD translate it and RE-publish it. That was WAaay off-topic! I'd been thinking about Physics most of today. I thought Dr. as in Prof. of Physics. Could be, you're Dr. as in Medical Doctor! My apologies.
