David Oppenheimer has given me his kind permission to continue the comp.sys.mac.comm FAQ.

The file is compressed in the Stuffit 6.5 format.

Changes

[2.6] I keep hearing about 'tarball' files what are they?
[2.7] What is file mapping and why is it important?
[2.8] After decoding and expanding a file I get an unknown document
file. How do I open this file?
[5.4] Do I have to know anything about Unix to use the Internet?
[6.1] I just downloaded an .AVI file but Quicktime will not play it
correctly. Am I missing something?

Subject: Internet Training Module 2

Guys,

This is the long awaited sequel to InterMod1 (now in revision 3).

Have attached a new training module that I have developed for work. It's
contains the lowdown on a number of aspects of the Internet that can be a
bit difficult to grasp. It is not meant for experts, but is a
continuation of the first Module.

It's easy to follow, and installation instructions are included. It's not
a stack, or an application, just a formatted series of Claris HomePage
HTML doc's that do a bit of explaining.

Like the first one, it's free, so have fun. (remember to eMail me when
you download it)

InterMod 1r3 has now been translated into more than 10 languages by
enthusiasts around the world, and is available on sites everywhere. It
has also been included on MacAddict.

Mac INIT Strings 2.0

Mac INIT Strings is a freeware utility that displays a list of modem
INITialization strings categorized by manufacturer and model. All of the
strings are meant for use with a Macintosh computer. Version 2.0 now
allows you to test an INITialization string with the modem currently
connected to your Macintosh computer.

This requires the use of the Apple Serial Tool which is part of the
Apple Communications ToolBox (CTB). The installer will place a copy of
the Serial Tool in your Extensions Folder requiring you to restart your
machine after the installation process is complete.

Mac INIT Strings was built with Mac OS 8 and is therefore, Mac OS
8-compatible. You will need at least System 7.1 and 4 MB of physical
(installed) memory in order to use Mac INIT Strings.

Since Mac INIT Strings is freeware, you agree to use the utility at your
own risk by reading this document. MRD offers no technical support for
this utility by e-mail, facsimile nor telephone. If you do however, have
comments on Mac INIT Strings, please feel free to e-mail MRD at
support@mrdataworks.com.

* If you find an INITialization string that does not work correctly,
please send an e-mail to support@mrdataworks.com.

* If you know of an INITialization string that is missing from the Mac
INIT Strings database, please send an e-mail to support@mrdataworks.com.

Thanks and most of all - have fun. That's what the Mac's all about.

Long live Apple!
