Hi there, I am absolutely new to the system and I am looking for the file WHAP (or WHAP17.ZOO) for a faster/cheeper comunication. In the PRACTICE Forum (LIB1, whap.txt) I learned this file should be in the AMIGATECH forum in LIB 16. But there is no LIB 16 (or at least not availableto me !) ??? Is ther anyone who could help me ? Is somewhere a newer/better tool for the AMIGA than WHAP ? Thanks ! Stefan

Stefan, Sorry the file in Practice Forum is out of date! Whap! is now in AmigaVendor forum, Library 9, and is called WHP19G.LZH. Betty

Yes you're right, that file is dated 1990 as I realised after asking the sysop there. Thanks ! Is WHAP the only communicationfile for the AMIGA ?or are there others too ? Stefan

Whap! is all you'll want, unless you don't already have a telecommunications program. If you're in need of one, may I (shamelessly) recommend the one we publish, A-Talk III? Regards, Whap!penned… Pat Cummings @Oxxi (310) 427-1227

Stefan, It's the only one we have that is automated. There are lots of other comm files in Library 5 of AmigaUser. Some of the more popular are BackTalk, Access! (good, but badly in need of updating), JRComm, and NCOmm. There are also some that are popular with the people who use mainframe systems a lot, such as VLT and Handshake. Betty
