II Scribe The Apple II Publishers Forum on Delphi! Not a publication, but a discussion group and custom Delphi Forum for Apple II publishers, readers, and fans. Select the II Scribe hot link right here and you will be immediately connected to Delphi via telnet (such is the awesome power of the Web, eh?). II Scribe can then be reached by typing 'Go custom 11' from any main Delphi prompt. If you are not a Delphi subscriber, and you find the II Scribe Forum to be an irresistible draw to make you want to subscribe, then use the special signup code of "CUSTOM11" (without the quotes) when you begin your Delphi subscription. That lets the Delphi powers-that-be know that it was the II Scribe Apple II Publishers Custom Forum that helped bring you aboard as a customer, which is always nice. :-)
