- YAM (Yet Another Modem program)
-
- by Chuck Forsberg
-
- Manual Revised 8-29-81
-
- YAM performs a number of "Super-Terminal" functions. It may be
- regarded as a (not proper) superset of MODEM7. Commands and
- subcommands are listed below.
-
- XYAM is a version of yam which corresponds to XMODEM.
-
-
-
- a: Change to a: disk (or b, etc.)
-
- a1: Change to a: disk user 1
-
- bm Set baudrate to m. Example: "b19200"
-
- bye Drop any call in progress and prepare to make/answer
- another.
-
- call name Enable Data Terminal Ready (DTR), and set baudrate
- to the value (if present) corresponding to name. If
- autodial is supported, dial the telephone number.
- If autodial is not supported, the telephone number
- and preferred baudrate are displayed. It is not
- necessary to type the entire name as it appears in
- the file. Example: "call tcbbs" or "call tc"
-
- close Dump cpature buffer if a recrive file is open, close
- files.
-
- dir [pattern ...] Display pathnames matching pattern alphabetized
- across the page. The usual ambiguous filenames are
- allowed under CP/M provided a correct version of
- setfcb() is used. Since dir or any other commands
- which accept a pattern use the circular buffer for
- filename expansion, be sure to write out any
- captured data first! Example: "dir" "dir *.c" "dir
- *.c *.h"
-
- dirr [pattern ...]
- Displays the directory with the number of sectors in
- each file. The number of files matched, number of
- blocks, number of kb allocated to those files, and
- estimated transmission time at the current baudrate
- for all files listed are displayed. Transmission
- time estimate is based on batch transmission from a
- Z89 with 700kb Tandon drives to a Cromenco 4mHz 4fdc
- system with Persci 277 drive. Time includes file
- i/o but not error correction.
-
- d{mode} Disable mode, where mode is 1 or more of the
- following. (Modes affecting file
- transmission/reception affect term mode; the "s" and
- "r" commands always send data transparently.
-
- e Exit from term mode when EOF is
- encountered on transmitted file.
-
- f Full duplex.
-
- h Half Duplex.
-
- g Resumes (GO) sending file once in term
- mode, equivalent to XON.
-
- i Image transparent data capture, all 8
- bits of all characters received,
- including NULLS. This overrides the t
- and/or z modes.
-
- l List unit (Printer) on. Since the
- printer is separately buffered, it
- needn't be as fast as the incoming data
- as long as the difference doesn't
- exceed the buffer size. The rewind
- command may be used to get extra copies
- of the received data.
-
- n Send NEWLINE (lf) only when
- transmitting file (no CR).
