- AmigaNCP is a implementation of the Psion link protocol which is e.g.
- built into the Psion S3/S3a palmtop's ROM. It's main purpose is to provide
- vice-versa nfs-like file access.
-
- AmigaNCP features:
-
- -- the "amigancp.library" providing all the network I/O functions.
-
- -- the AmigaNCP-FileServer providing transparent access to Amiga files from
- the Psion side with optional on-the-fly character conversion.
-
- -- the AmigaNCP-FileSystem providing transparent access to Psion files from
- the AmigaDOS environment.
-
- -- a print server allowing to print directly from your Psion to a printer
- connected to your Amiga.
-
- -- full developer documentation and associated material to faciliate NCP
- services from within your own applications.
-
- AmigaNCP requires:
-
- -- AmigaOS 2.04 or better (localization supported).
-
- -- the IBM-PC version of the 3-Link cable.
-
- Please note that this is still a beta release which may be full of bugs &
- quirks. Please report bugs to "o.wagner@pluribus.wupper.de".
-
- The installation script might fail with old versions of the Installer
- utility. If you face errors upon installation, obtain Installer_125.lha from
- the AmiNet.
-
- Changes from Release 0.9 to 0.10 (beta)
- ---------------------------------------
- -- library is now named "amigancp.library" to avoid problems with
- an already existing, similary named library.

- the Psion auto-powered off.
- -- now correctly handles filenames with non ASCII characters.
- -- fixed several file system problems, esspecially with
- Examine()/ExNext().

- large files.
