- YAPP PROTOCOL is (tm) 1986 by Jeffry B. Jacobsen -WA7MBL-
- All the tests HAS BEEN DONE on a BBS with WA7MBL software vers. 3.20-3.31
- YAPP protocol now is FULLY COMPATIBLE in showing informations on AmiPac's
- status/clock window with - SV1AIZ Multiuser BBS v4.20 - (c) 27/07/90 -
- S.Kavalaris. This uses a slightly different format than WA7MBL'format.
- With these type of BBS and AA4RE BBS all transfers are 100% successfully
- Also from 4.33 the COMPATIBILITY is EXTENDED to AX25 BBS software - F6FBB
- (C) 1986-1990 bt Jean-Paul ROUBELAT, F6FBB
- With other BBS without YAPP use the 6BIT (UU) or the BEST 7BIT CONVERSION
-
- The QUIT gadget is ALSO in the left-top corner, not VISIBLE!
- AmiPac is capable of 32 rows in PAL mode, 25 in NTSC mode (tested)
- And automatically 64 rows in INTERLACED PAL and 50 in INTERLACED NTSC
-
- Set in SCRIPT-FILE the RIGHT-MARGIN you want. The program will
- GO to NEWLINE automatically. SET 39 if your friends works with
- terminals capables of only 40 characters on a line (C64 or some Apple)
-
- This program has the respect of your KEYMAP, set it proper BEFORE start.
-
- Information on the CLOCK-WINDOW ARE the following:
- PkLenght of YAPP PACKET sent to YOU (tipically 256 if HOST right-set);
- Status of the YAPP TRANSFER:3=SENDINIT, 4=SENDDATA, 8=RECVINIT, 9=RECVDATA and
- 10=OTHER TRANSFER, 12,13=ERROR CONDITIONS, 30=ABORT, etc.
- Size (final) of the FILE you are transfering;
- Transfer-Rate in percent;
- Bytes already transferred;
- Speed of transfer in CHAR/SEC;
- ELAPSED MINUTES from the START of the transfer;
- ESTIMATED time in MINUTES to the END of the TRANSFER (less than 10 % is a TOO
- SMALL value to WELL estimate the END. Howewer it CAN be EXACTLY the RIGHT ONE!
