Thanks OTCE, I think a fullscreen hal would definitely be helpful. On my present hal I have something called "Maximus" screen [Not my invention I hasten to say]. Fills almost all of the Hal area, with just a line for user input and a box for Hal's answer. I imagine most people, who have had Hal working for sometime, have there own settings. (Mine include a modified Hal face, and load up of the Hal details in script load)
Another question.
You have probably guessed I don't think of everything at once. Just dash off a message when something comes to me. Anyway.
Ultra Hal7 talks of Cloud storage. Problem to me. My present Hal is on a laptop that goes everywhere with me, but only picks up the Internet at home.
I know there are "dongles" [Which do not always work in dead areas of the country] but I don't have a working one at present. I would rather keep Hal on the machine completely, with access to the Cloud when I am at home. In the coming Summer I hope to travel a lot and access to the Internet will be very limited.
Thanks again for your help
