Problem is, all the GW Basic sources I've found
for term progs are simply
for text-based terms only, there are none around with simple transfer
abilities (ie XModem or Kermit).
It's been some time since I looked at this, but I thought there was a
receive-only version of Kermit written in BASIC (printed in the 'Kermit
book' if nowhere else). The idea was you typed it in and used it to
transfer the full kermit onto the target machine.
Anyone have sourec available for a simple term program
that'll at least gbet
me started by allowing me to transfer over smething better ?
Or any other suggestion ?
Where are you? Is there any other list member nearby who could stick
MS-DOS kermit onto a 5.25" disk?
Will laplink (or whatever it's called) run on that machine? I seem to
remember there was a way to transfer that onto a target machine using the
serial line only.
Can you (temporarily) cable up a 3.5" drive to the XT machine? XT
controllers should be able to handle 720K 3.5" disks.
