- There are two versions of Opus!Comm in this ARC file. The primary one is
- OPUSCOMM.COM. This version can support both COM1 and COM2 simultaneously.
- This version can be used by communications programs to communicate with
- both ports at the same time, but unfortunately, no such software yet exists.
- The second version is OPUSCOM1.COM. This version can only address EITHER
- COM1 or COM2 at any one time. This version when installed takes up about
- 6K less than OPUSCOMM.COM (the size of the inbound and outbound buffers for
- the second communications port). OPUSCOM1.COM should be used on systems
- that run DoubleDOS so that the extra 6K can be saved in each partition.

-
- NOTE 1: Opus!Comm in one flavor or another MUST be run BEFORE you start Opus!
- If Opus!Comm is not resident before Opus is started, then Opus will terminate
- immediately.
-
-
- NOTE 2: Opus!Comm must be loaded after DoubleDOS. If it is to be used in 2
- partitions, then it must be loaded in each partition. Other multi-tasking
- systems may allow Opus!Comm to be loaded prior to the multi-tasker, but that
- has not been tested. In that situation OPUSCOMM.COM should be used since
- both ports can be supported simultaneously.
