- WXMODM20.DOC - Notes written July 28, 1988 by Keith Petersen, W8SDZ
-
- WXMODM20 is version 2.0 of the Windowed-XMODEM protocol module for use with
- BBS programs or individual terminal programs (like ProComm and Qmodem) which
- do not have WXMODEM. New features include baud rates up to 19,200 and a better
- file transfer progress display window.
-
- The WXMODEM.COM file in this ARC expects command-line options or it will
- not run. These options may be conveniently automated by the use of the
- two example BAT files included in this ARC, WXR.BAT and WXS.BAT which are
- for receive and send respectively.
-
- WXR.BAT looks like this:
-
- wxmodem -r -b 2400 -l com1 -c -p w -f %1
- -- ------- ------- -- ---- -----
- | | | | | |
- | | | | | ^--filename
- | | | | ^--use Windowed XMODEM protocol
- | | | ^--use CRC error checking
- | | ^--use COM1 port
- | ^--set speed to 2400 bps
- ^--receive mode
-
- WXS.BAT looks like this:
-
- wxmodem -s -b 2400 -l com1 -c -p w -f %1
- -- ------- ------- -- ---- -----
- | | | | | |
- | | | | | ^--filename
- | | | | ^--use Windowed XMODEM protocol
- | | | ^--use CRC error checking
- | | ^--use COM1 port
- | ^--set speed to 2400 bps
- ^--send mode
-
- After you have given the appropriate commands to the BBS to upload or download
- do this:
-
- To send a file (from you) type: WXR filename
-
- To receive a file (from the other end) type: WXS filename
-
- If anyone knows where I can get the Turbo Pascal source for this version
- of WXMODEM, please send a message to me at either of the following two
- addresses:
-
- BBS: DKUG RBBS 313-772-0522 (accessable by PC Pursuit)
- Arpa: W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA
