Ok, will try that command on 3.16 beta I have here.
I assume work on the MSK-DOS versions has stopped but was there
a version released _after_ MSK316 or do I have the absolute
last / final version _ever_?
What compiler was the MSK-DOS version targeted for (in case I
get the courage to muck around with the source code and
recompile).
BTW: I should've mentioned this before - I was pleasantly
surprised when I did get MSK-DOS to work on my old 8086 here.
It is very stable and an extremely feature-rich program to have
on a system as old and limited as this one. You gentleman have
something you can point to as an 'achievement'. I am anxious to
get my other systems back in operation and see what your
CKermit can do on 32 bit hardware - it must be AWESOME!
