OSTerm forks RZ/SZ from the file transfer menu.
|
|
|
|
What Ken did was add definitions to describe external protocols in
|
|
the osterm.config file. There are provisions to add in up to
|
|
three external protocols.
|
|
|
|
OSTerm comes with a config file set up to handle rz 3.24 5-5-93 for OS-9/68000
|
|
|
|
by Chuck Forsberg, Omen Technology INC. Are you sure that you meant 3.34 and
|
|
not 3.24?
|
|
|
|
Anyways, no matter. If you do indeed have 3.34, and the syntax has changed,
|
|
then all you have to do is edit the osterm.config file.
|
|
|
|
RZ/SZ does not include permission to be distributed with commercial packages
|
|
like OSTerm, and so it is not included on the distribution diskette.
|
|
|
|
Sending and receiving files with OSTerm 68K and external protocols is exactly
|
|
the same as with the internal protocols, thanks to some smart programming by
|
|
Ken. With a batch protocol like SZ, for example, the Pick Files file picker is
|
|
|
|
used, and the list of files is passed to sz as a parameter.
|

Colin,

George,
|

Are you sure you are talking about Kterm ? Or do you mean Osterm or
|
|
its graphic interface (??) forgot the name.
|
|
BTW I am waiting for the final update of OSTERM and would like to
|
|
compare to the release V2.0 of Kterm, just got for testing and final
|
|
release. No I don't know the price but will advise as soon as Blackhawk
|
|
tells me.

Tim,
|
|
OSKBOX is a Amateur Radio Packet mail Box/BBS written for OSK.
|
|
Packet radio is a form of digital radio using a computer, a TNC
|
|
(terminal node controller), and a 2 way amateur radio. it lets a ham
|
|
radio operator to connect with other hams via either directly or thru
|
|
his personal mailbox or via a packet network. I have sent messages to a
|
|
ham friend of mine in CAL. via packet. The msg is transmitted from one
|
|
packet node to another, figuring out along the way the best route to
|
|
CAL. Since each ham packet station has its own address, the msg doesn't
|
|
get lost.
|
|
Kinda like a FIDO network. In fact very much like a FIDO network,
|
|
execpt using 2 way radios and not phone lines.
|
|
|
|
Hope this helped.

I can't honestly give an accurate answer right now. Ken is doing all the
|
|
programming for the project, and is very busy at work right now. All I can say
|
|
|
|
is that it will be out as soon as possible. Sorry.
