- Comdemo - Serial Communications Demo.
-
- Comdemo is a full duplex terminal program. It recognizes most
- of the more common ANSI control sequence such as cursor
- location and screen attributes. You can use Comdemo to
- dial up a BBS or communicate with RS-232 equipment.
-
- Comdemo will send Ctrl characters and keys such as the
- escape key verbatim. Some Alt characters are reserved for
- commands. They are as follows:
-
-
- Alt A - Toggle between ANSI and TTY terminal.
- Alt B - Next baud rate.
- Alt C - Next COM port.
- Alt D - Hayes dial command (sends the string "ATDT")
- Alt E - Toggle echo mode.
- Alt G - Hayes hang up command (sends the string "~~~+++~~~ATH0\r\n").
- Alt H - Next handshake scheme.
- Alt I - Initialize a Hayes modem (sends the string "ATZ").
- Alt N - Append a line feed to a carriage return toggle.
- Alt M - Toggle mode (8-1-N, 7-1-E).
- Alt X - Quit Comdemo.
- Pg Up - Upload a file (Xmodem)
- Pg Dn - Download a file (Xmodem)
-
-
- To dial up a BBS, set the COM port (Alt C), baud rate (Alt B),
- word length (Alt W), number of stop bits (Alt S) and parity
- (Alt P). If the BBS send ANSI escape codes make sure ANSI is
- selected (Alt A). In some cases you will need to set LF on
- (Alt N) as well. Now you can initialize your modem and dial.
- Press Alt I to initialize the modem and then press Alt D followed
- by the phone number and the enter key. If the initialize and dial
- strings in Comdemo are not appropriate for your modem, you
- can enter them by hand.
-
- Comdemo will compile/link under Borland C/C++ and Microsoft C/C++.
- If you are using Microsoft C/C++, make sure you link in the
- graphics library.
