Over the years I made the mistake of inserting code into X00 to
fix bugs in other software. It has reached a point that I
anything I touch will break something. The current source code
of X00 is too hard to work with.
Version 1.5x will be the last X00 using the original source code.
The next version will be a total rewrite. This should put me in
a position where I can again support X00.
Vince Perriello convinced me to make some additional changes
enabling baud rates above 38400. See X00 function 1Eh in
X00REF.DOC for additional information.
There seems to be a plague of hacked X00's out there. Any X00's
with a version above 1.53a are hacks. That is, any version 2.00,
2.01 etc are not legitimate versions of X00. In addition, any
version 1.30 or 1.51 are also hacks. Users should note that all
releases of X00 (including betas) use the Authenticity
Verification feature of PKZIP. A careful check of the
Authentication Verification message when the X00 files are UNZIP
will reveal most, it not all hacks.
