It all started with your great-great-grandfather who was a High Admiral and one of the founding officers of the Patrol. All generations since then have served in the Patrol. Now it's your turn and two years into you are still a lowly Ensign Seventh Class. Your direct report, Blather, is really making your life miserable. Are you really Stellar Patrol material?

Mac Pascal 7.3E

24bit — Sat, 10 May 2014 15:39:53 +0000

Application file:

MacPascal.img

Niklaus Wirth's first interpreter for the Mac.
File was taken from http://macgui.net/downloads/?file_id=17744 for easier use with Mini vMac II.
It's just the bare naked app, maybe if someone adds doc files and samples, it might be more versatile.

The long story has been covered here marvelously: http://basalgangster.macgui.com/RetroMacComputing/The_Long_View/Entries/...

Microsoft Chart 1.0

dwheeless — Mon, 27 Jan 2014 03:28:25 +0000

Application file:

mschart1.zip

Here is a zip file of Microsoft Chart 1.0 that contains a .dsk image of the original floppy which actually works. I've run into some other downloadable files for this application but due to the copy protection implemented all of them gave me problems in one form or another. This disk image contains a hidden and protected file that must be present in the same folder as the app before it will properly run. The disk image is bootable within Mini vMac and the app seems to also run properly under System 6.0.8.

Up to System 6.0.8

Microsoft File 2.0a

dwheeless — Mon, 27 Jan 2014 03:13:22 +0000

Application file:

msfile20a.zip

Here is another rarity that is known as Microsoft File 2.0a. I was fortunate to locate this in a really old floppy disk library from decades ago and miraculously the disk was still good. MS File was not very popular due its unusual interface and the fact that it was eclipsed by the enormously popular FileMaker, however some of the Mac purists out there would likely want to add this gem to their Mac Plus software collection.

Sharpen your typing skills through arcade action. Allegedly "America's #1 educational software program" at the time.

Seems to be unstable under emulation unless the sound is turned off.
