- *** H I S T O R Y of .BAT Files for QMODEM 3.x or 4.x ***
-
-
- Since it has been so long since I first created these; I will ONLY
- give general information of versions: 0.1 thru 0.3
- Block Sizes are determined by (Unregisterd Versions, and Max. size)
- On Registered Versions or switches added, this will vary.
- =========================================================================
-
- Look for future .BAT Files that will include:
-
- BIMODEM (new version, when working!)
- OBBXT84 (Compuserve "B")
-
- =========================================================================
-
- Ver. 1.1 - 01/90
-
- Added SuperK 4.46 Block Size: 8192
-
- This is fast, *BUT* it's somewhat cryptic like Zmodem! The
- easiest way to set this up is by looking at my README.1ST
- file. Install buy running: Superk @, then PATSTACK.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Ver. 1.0 - 01/90
-
- Added Cmodem 1.1 Block Size: 4096
- PUMA 1.0 1024
-
- While Cmodem is very fast, my hat goes off to: Matthew Thomas
- for the incredibly beautiful PUMA, a real peace of art! This
- package tells you everything you need to know in ONE screen.
- For this reason, I have made a MAJOR version jump here.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Ver. 0.6 - 01/90
-
- Added the Color ANSI screen versions of Zmodem.
-
- Don't have the authors name, but thanks for the ANSI screen.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Ver. 0.5 - 08/89
-
- Added Bimodem 1.14 Block Size: 1024
-
- This seems to be nice with its dual Recv/Send functions, and
- the fact that you can CHAT at the same time.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Ver. 0.4 - 05/89
-
- Added Lynx 1.0 Block Size: 1024
-
- First version was OK, but 3.0 would lockup QMODEM.
- Version 3.02 fixed this problem.
-
- This is a cross between WXmodem and Zmodem.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Ver. 0.3 - 02/89
-
- Added Jmodem 1.12 Block Size: 8192
-
- This allow fast Host/Remote Synchronization
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
- Ver. 0.2 - 12/88
-
- Addition of Zmodem Block Size: 1024
-
- This has made its way to the top quickly as being the *ONE* to
- use, and at this time period, WAS the fastest thing around!
- Don't get me wrong, it does more than most, especially with
- its multiple Protocol simulations. *BUT* as you will see first
- hand, there are those that are easier and faster to use...
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Vers. 0.1 - 10/88
-
- This included the BASIC External Protocols at that time, which
- included: CLINK (SeaLink) KERMIT MLINK WXmodem
