Is that you whose health has been so knocked around, Warwick? Whoever
it is, I'm sorry to hear it. My wife has had a fair bit of poor health
in recent years, and I can understand it is pretty hard handling that
kind of thing. You lose the healthy you, and it is replaced with a sick
you. Not great to face.<br>

All the best during a long haul back to recovery.<br>

I have given below the emails I got from them at the time they released
Artline and set up a site to distribute it for free. Has the site been
taken down?
I never managed to get the talked about source disks from them, but he
might have given something to Tim, although how you check on this I
don't know.
Probably going to pull the plug on GEM, might put the software packs I
have on ebay if I can sort out an Ebay sellers pack. Unfortunately 2
blackouts/collapses have revealed dodgy lower back = do not spend too
much time sitting in front of the computer; dodgy heart, two upper
chambers not in sync with bottom, leaky valve, tendency to be irregular
goes from too fast down to stop so far with only 2 second breaks = no
energy; a stroke = much time spent "Dancing with the faries". Currently
on 18 pills a day with definite prognosis of getting better; Oh! and the
beancounters took my driving license away, I live in the country about 4
miles from nearest bus and so far have managed a walk of 400 yds.
hello Thomas
Tims email address used to be on his site but I think he has been
altering it recently to free up space. anyway here it is:-
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:timolmst@altinet.net">timolmst@altinet.net</a>
I really like the site
I think you've just given the whole GEM thing a huge boost.
I sure He will accomodate whatever you want within reason, His main
desire is to help people with an interest in this legacy software.
Anyway as I have to email him I will pass on your comments.
I dont suppose you have a copy of the lattice C compiler version 2.14 or 2.?
I have got the manual but the disks in working order are proving elusive.
There are considerable differences from 3 which are hard to figure out.
All the best chris
Did you get the GNU license attachment
as somebody else has just asked why I sent it to them so I suspect it's
got glued to the wrong email.
