- Since I issue new XC releases, I'm kind of intrigued.
- The latest version of XC is 3.3, while 3.0b is from July of 1991.
- What the hell L1.5 means, I wouldn't know.
-
- You're more than welcome to patch XC any way you want, but you might not know
- that the current version has keybinding, so that in my .xc, I have:
-
- #####
- # Dynamic keyboard binding feature
- #####
-
- # Bind XCAPE-^S to receive a file using sz (.sz is in the distribution)
- bind_script 19 "/usr/lib/xc/.sz"
-
- # Bind XCAPE-^R to receive a file using rz (.rz is in the distribution)
- bind_script 18 "/usr/lib/xc/.rz"
-
- The .sz script (.rz is quite similar):
-
- echo -n "What files are to be sent? "
- read FILES
- echo "Starting ZMODEM send (sz -y " FILES ")"
- pipe "sz -y " FILES
-
- Voila. Zmodem integration in XC.
-
-
- If anyone wishes the current shar files for XC, ask me for version 4.0 (ANSI
- Prototypes), or version 3.3 (plain old C-code). Execpt for function
- protoyping, they're identical.
