- Arrow Electronics at 800-932-7769 (516-467-1000) sells National NS16550AN
- chips mail order (credit card) in small quantities. Ask for NS16550AN.
- It's important to get the "AN" part, earlier versions won't do. The
- Western Digital chip has problems, so insist on the National chip for now.
- Another source is Jameco Electronics at 415-592-8097.
-
- 17.59 The spurious (but harmless) "requesting 7-bit transfer"
- message triggered by old ZMODEM versions has been eliminated.
-
- 17.58 Subtle enhancements to Compuserve-B+ and ANSI SGR 8 support.
-
- 17.57 Multitasking under DESQview has been improved. Dasher emulation
- and certain ANSI SGR colors have been improved.
-
- The "@", "*", "r", and "u" numeric parameters will override the
- default colors obtained with the corresponding ANSI SGR 1,3,4,6 and 7
- escapes if 1024 is added. By default, these ANSI SGR sequences
- operate by swapping foreground/background colors or by modifying
- intensity bits.
-
- Review "w" and "W" commands no longer close the capture file opened with
- the "t file" or "create" commands. The "dirpx" string parameter and
- DIRPX environment variable can be used to control the directory for
- cut/paste operations with the "w" and "W" commands.
-
- The "initmm" script has been changed to support MobyTurbo on Unix systems.
-
- 17.56 The "plog" entries now show the "effective speed" instead of the
- interface speed. (The effective speed defaults to the transmission speed
- but may be changed with the "estimate" command.) This allows a more
- accurate report when the modem's interface speed is greater than the
- DCE/DCE speed.
-
- YAM now sends the CANCEL sequence when the "disk full" error is
- encountered during a ZMODEM download.
-
- The "mm224" script now supports the HST "dual standard" modem when
- the MODEM variable is set to HST. See read.me for details.
-
- 17.55 ANSI VT102 "delete character" displays properly under DESQview
- (the screen is now updated promptly). SGR 10/11/12 codes used by
- SCO are now recognized.
-
- ALT-Q no longer zeros the K numeric parameter (disabled F11/F12). The
- Crash Recovery at -512 bytes problem has been corrected.
-
- A bug in the implementation of the rz/sz -rr option has been corrected.
- When using the -rr option, both sending and receiving programs should be a
- March 8 1990 or later version, otherwise files will be needlessly sent.
-
- YAM now defaults to "handshake both" if the clear to send signal is high
- when YAM selects the comm port.
-
- In the "review w" function, a blank file name now implies the modem.
-
- The "aulopts" string parameter has been added as a convenience. The
- "sz" command processes options in "aulopts" before processing command
- line options.
