Re: How do I install driver software for an Epson Perfection V500 Photo USB scanner in MX-21.3 ?

ontologist AAh - that's a problem with the forum. The topic has probably been deleted because of age. I think I will have to keep my own copies of solutions which may be helpful to others. As I said, I have used at least three versions of the driver in different MX installations and all of them wor...

Re: The best editor.?

If you like WordStar commands, Joe is an editor that uses those same commands. AFAIK nobody has ever tried to recreate the Function key memorization mess that was WordPerfect. :p You're being a bit hard, Tim. You only needed to remember the common F-keys - the keyboard overlay did the rest. Reveal ...
