Re: Mac OS Calculator?

2024-02-19 Thread Doug Lee

I've never tried calc, but I've used bc for a long time when I need a quick 
calculation. It's a wrapper
around dc, which is a postfix-format calculator perhaps more familiar to 
officionados of HP hand-held
calculators. bc is algebraic in syntax. Both come with MacOS as far as I know.

Thank you for the recommendation.

At the other end of the sophistication scale is Sagemath, also available 
in Homebrew. It's more than the ultimate calculator.

Re: Mac OS Calculator?

2024-02-19 Thread Doug Lee

Curiously I don't find sagemath in Homebrew; wonder if it left? I checked on 
two Macs (one mine and one a
friend's).

I do find Sagemath in apt for Ubuntu/Debian, but not in yum/dnf under 
AlmaLinux, for comparison.
www.sagemath.org looks healthy enough and lists MacOS binaries, so maybe that's 
the modern approach for a
Mac.

Thanks for letting me know about that one. I wouldn't need that much complexity 
often, but it's nice to know
where to find mathematical muscle when necessary.

Re: VMware Fusion/Player

There's an available license that's free of charge. It's available to
students and to other categories they name. I have had one based on my
W3C activities for some time.

However, I've been unable to renew. It's been very frustrating.

Re: Mac OS Calculator?

2024-02-19 Thread Jonathan Cohn

I did 3-4 tests with the calculator app and did not see any issues.
1. 12 + 5[enter] [command-c]
And then pasted the results in a terminal window 
I then did 
12/88[enter][command-c]
and the number in both cases was pasted successfully in a terminal window.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Re: Reading Xls files on my Mac?

2024-02-19 Thread Jonathan Cohn

Hello,
I believe you stated .xls files, but Modern Excel uses .xlsx files. In any 
case, if you have access to both and if Excel is accessible enough  then you 
should probably use Exel just because then you won’t have a conversion to 
numbers.
Numbers does have its own quarks especially when editing formulas, but those 
might be improved in newer versions of the program.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Check your Startup Disk in the virtual machine settings. If you have not

Well,

I am now running a VMWare VM on my M1 Mac. I have to use VOCR to get through
setup and then add VMWare tools. Only then did I get Narrator sound.

I???m not entirely sure why because I did get the windows startup sound after
going through the first steps of OS install where you enter a product key and
such. But I didn???t have Narrator speech.

Trouble With iMap Account, iOS

2024-02-19 Thread pdevasto0219

Hi all,

 

One of my e-mail accounts is with Comcast, an iMap account. I noticed today
that my mail hasn't been updated for the last two days, and there is an
error message saying "no password provided for comcast". I went to Settings
to try and re-enter the password, but even though the characters are in the
edit box, I still get the message about no password provided. I even tried
deleting and then recreating the account, but I can't do that either.
Fortunatly I do have access to a Windows PC and mail is working OK there, so
I'm not dead in the water. Has anyone else noticed this behavior lately?

 

Thanks,

Pete De Vasto

Re: Any accessible games for the mac

2024-02-19 Thread Chanelle Allen

Letterfull is an iOS game that works really well on the Mac. I have configured 
my Numpad commander to do a few things like the magic tap for submitting words 
which makes the game a little easier. There is also an iOS game I recently 
tried called Words Command Line Jumble that is completely usable with VoiceOver 
despite a few unlabeled buttons. If you enjoy Scrabble type games, WordVoyance 
is a good option.
Regards,
Chanelle

You should be able to play "interactive fiction" games on the Mac. 
They're the only kind of game in which I have sustained an interest, 
although admittedly I haven't played significantly for a long time.
