- Re: UMODEM Version 2.7
-
- The latest version of UMODEM, the UNIX version of XMODEM,
- is now available.
-
- Thanks TONS to Bennett Marks for his transportability
- conversion to UNIX Version 7 (his release is UMODEM Version 2.6).
- I think he did a superior job! This new UMODEM (Version 2.7) is
- an enhancement of his upgrade. To compile it for your UNIX sys-
- tem, the following command lines are recommended:
-
- cc -7 umodem.c -o umodem -DJHU <-- for JHU UNIX
- cc -7 umodem.c -o umodem -DVER7 <-- for Version 7 UNIX - (I'm not
- sure -7 is required)
-
- Version 2.7 includes the Version 7 UNIX transportability,
- a status option (y) which gives the user file size and CP/M
- record count information for his up/down loading time estimate,
- and a 7-bit transmission option (7) which masks out the MSB of
- either protocol (TERM II FTP 1 or FTP 3 [CP/M UG Protocol]) so
- that a modified MODEM2 or TERM II can transceive text files via
- UMODEM on the ARPA Net. The ARPA Net problems (bah, humbug!) are
- still not resolved, but I'm working on them.
-
- Enjoy, and thanks for all the interest!
