Betty, You probably know–why is there no Zmodem transfer protocol available here on CompuServe (perhaps because they have "Quick B"?) ..I miss ZModem's file transfer resume feature quite a bit.. Gregory Donner [Internet: 102673.1743@compuserve.com]

Got a great idea. Get as much subscriber/address/price info as you can for each magazine, and put it into a text file, and upload it here. People would love it.

Peter, I started off with NComm. Forget the research, and persevere with xmodem till you get AP and LHA132.run to unarc it. I know the frustration that you are going through, I've been there. Xmodem is slow but will get you there in the end, even if it takes a…

Don, Yup, that was the problem all right. I also found the jumper for the floppy drive—-it's 301, not 103. (Just for someone else's reference.) Things are working beautifully now; thanks. AMIGA—–The Future Is Now! Chris Shepard: 030/50 A2000 with Toaster 4000 & MacIIfx via Emplant.

I think I know why. I read in the latest Video Toaster mag that the only "authorized" release of 3.1 was for the 4000. All of the other 3.1 chips are "unauthorized" releases, so maybe this is why EA did nothing to support 3.1. NewTek also say the same thing…

From: Joachim Sondermann Amiga User Forum · Communications October 29, 1995 6:40 PM
You'd been more specific 🙂 . But then, a pretty common problem is that you should set your serial prefs in Term to 8-N-1 even if you heard that CIS uses 7-E-1. To prevent garbage from CIS set "Strip high bit" as well. HTH, Joachim Sondermann-Bieker on Amiga AutoPilot 1.80…

FWIW, it has to be damn close – or the national grid wouldn't work. As I recall there is a sort of "genlock" they use to allow multiple generating stations to feed the grid. The consequences of a little bit of phase error are quite frightening. Steve Brightman Daring to…

Volker, AutoPilot may be starting the downloads over again – but B+ protocols are quite capable of re-starting. If you want to re-start a download, have you tried it in HandsOn? And AutoPilot definitely uses BPlus protocols as default. —Betty

Chris.. You could always try getting XPRQUICKB.LIBRARY or XPRBPLUS.LIBRARY, which works fine with Terminus, but i've never used TERM so i don't know if you can use external protocols.. You'll have to read the term doc's on how to set them up for use etc etc. Anthony

Since I don't know what specifically what you are doing I don't know why you can't get it to work. Suffice it to say, tho, that if you have the XPR B+ or QB library, and you've selected one of those libraries for use with Term, it works fine.
