Joe, Thanks for uploading that info, I took about an hour and a half and added on some capture features, upload buffer, duplex etc. However, I would like to add Xmodem protocols. Do you (or anyone reading this) know how to compute the Xmodem protocol so that I can insert that into the program? The program itself though, is written around your basic program and is obviously in ABasiC, it probably won't appear until tomorrow or maybe later, if I sent the thing right! (I'm a freshman uploader!) So Anyways… Let me know what you think! (anyone!) Thanx, Kelly Kauffman [70206,640] *** There is a reply: 42109 Enter command, N for next message or <CR> for menu : n

can't help with the xmodem..if you really need it, get a copy of MaxiComm. in fact, I used maxicomm to upload the program(as well as a game which hasn't appeared yet). not the greatest term prog. in the world, but it works anyway. $50, made my MaxiCorp, check with your dealer if you want it, but I advise waiting for something better unless you really need it(like I did). anyway, it's not really my program, the changes I made were minor.. Alt-C sends a ctrl-c for logging onto CIS, and before I got to it, it only read the port after you pressed a key, so you had to press something before anything else would appear on your screen. don't know who the original author was, but they deserve a lot of credit for getting this to the public. anyway, MSBasic is supposed to work RIGHT with the serial port(ie:just open a file on ser: and it will read it correctly) and it should be out fairly soon. (oh yah, we're all supposed to get free upgrades to it from ABasiC.. and all new Amigas will be shipped with it instead, but it's not out yet and I don't know when it will be) see ya. Joe R.

Kelly, look at my quick & dirty Xterm3.bas for an example of XMODEM protocol from ABasiC. It has a lot of problems, but I am working on them… Enter command, N for next message or <CR> for menu : n
