 ▄ File menu: Upload
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
!Uploading is the process of transferring a file from your computer to another computer over a phone line or direct connection. Files are transferred using a transfer protocol. Each side of the connection must be using the same transfer protocol in order for the transfer to be successful. 
To begin an upload, you must first tell the system you are connected to that you would like to send a file. You may be prompted for additional information regarding the file you are about to upload, such as a short description of the contents of the file. u
Once the remote system has prompted you to begin uploading your file, select the Files/Upload menu option or press the PgUp key. QmodemPro will prompt you for the upload protocol (you must select the same protocol in QmodemPro as you have selected on the remote system). After you have selected the transfer protocol, you will be asked for the name of the file to upload. ≈
When uploading files to CompuServe, this command is not used. CompuServe will instruct QmodemPro to automatically start the file transfer. You must have turned on CIS B+ Auto Start using the Config/Protocols/Internal/CIS B+ configuration option.

 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
}Some file transfer protocols are capable of sending several files during a single transfer. This is called a Batch transfer. c
If you are going to upload a number of files in a batch transfer, you may select these files before you connect to the system (this saves connect time and charges). The Batch Upload Entry menu selection from the Files menu will allow you to select files to upload ahead of time. Your selections will be saved to disk for later use by the Upload command.

#Downloading is the process of transferring a file from another computer to your computer over a phone line or direct connection. Files are transferred using a transfer protocol. Each side of the connection must be using the same transfer protocol in order for the transfer to be successful. ▐
To begin a download, you must first tell the system you are connected to that you would like to receive a file. If you are using a batch transfer protocol, you may be able to select more than one file to receive at once. á
Once the remote system has prompted you to begin downloading your file(s), select the File/Download menu option or press the PgDn key. QmodemPro will prompt you for the download protocol (you must select the same protocol in QmodemPro as you have selected on the remote system). After you have selected the transfer protocol, you may (depending on the protocol) be asked for the name of the file for your computer. π
Download protocols such as Zmodem, CIS B+, and certain external protocols can start automatically without the use of the Files/Download command. You may need to enable this operation using the Config/Protocols menu selection.

 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
bThe Hang-up command is used to force the modem to terminate a call. In most cases, you would not use this command to disconnect from the remote computer; you would use the remote computer's standard logoff procedure. However, in case you are experiencing problems (remote computer lockup, bad line noise) you may use this command to disconnect the call. '.
 ▄ Device menu: Break
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
This menu selection generates a BREAK signal. "BREAK" is a special signal generated by the serial adapter, used to notify the receiving computer of a specific condition. In most cases, BREAK is used to tell the other computer to interrupt whatever it is doing. a
You may set the length of the BREAK signal using the Config/Device/Delays configuration option. nj':

╬This command sends the auto-answer string as specified in the Config/Device/Term Cmds configuration option. The default is ATS0=1^M, which on a Hayes-compatible modem will activate the auto-answer feature. ç
Activating this command a second time will send the Modem Init command. Normally this will disable the auto-answer mode of the modem.

Xon/Xoff are software controlled transmit/receive signals which control the flow of text or data.  While active, ^S will stop the flow of data and ^Q will restart it.  Xon/Xoff is generally used to control text viewed on the screen or preventing data buffer overflow.

xThis toggle switches QmodemPro operation between Full Duplex and Half Duplex modes. "Duplex" describes the method used in echoing your keystrokes back to your terminal screen. In Full Duplex mode, the remote system you are connected to echoes your keystrokes back to you. In Half-Duplex mode, the remote system does not echo your keystrokes, and QmodemPro must do it instead. <
An incorrect Duplex setting will yield one of two results: m
 ■ You do not see any keystrokes displayed on your screen as
   you type. You should switch to HALF duplex.
[
 ■ Your keystrokes are duplicated (i.e. HHeelllloo). You
   should switch to FULL duplex.

KThe Terminal Emulation feature allows QmodemPro to behave like a display terminal such as the popular VT100 from Digital Equipment Corporation. While in terminal emulation mode, QmodemPro interprets special control information so that it is displayed properly on the PC screen as if it were a native terminal of the selected type.

 ▄ Video menu: 8th bit Strip
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
Some computer systems, for example CompuServe and GEnie, use the high bit of each 8-bit character for parity checking. If the high bit is not removed, the screen display will consist of high-order ASCII characters (ASCII 127+) such as foreign, graphic, or scientific characters. #
This command toggles the stripping of the high-bit ON and OFF. A status window will be displayed showing the new state of this toggle. QmodemPro starts in 8-bit mode by default.  This can be changed with a Script command to automate high-bit stripping, for example when calling CompuServe. ]
The Status Line will display an "8" or "7" in the Toggles area to reflect the current mode.

The find dialog box has a data entry field for the Text to Find, and four option buttons. The data entry field is a history list, which can be used to select and re-use previously entered text strings. 

The option buttons are [Find], which searches for the first matching entry; [Again] which continues the search to the next matching entry; [Repeat & Tag] which automatically finds and tags all matching entries; and [Cancel], which returns to the Phonebook dialog box. '(
 ▄ Phonebook: Edit
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
6Three types of files may be edited from this button: Phonebook note files, script files, and Prefixes. The first two options pop up the QmodemPro Editor, while the third option pops up the Edit Prefixes dialog from the Configure Device menu. Refer to Editor Commands for a complete list of commands supported. ╔

 ▄ Phonebook: Print
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
oThe [Print] button allows you to copy selected information from your phonebook to a printer or to a disk file. D
You will notice two windows full of check boxes. Any or all selected fields for each phonebook record may be printed. To select, use the arrow keys or mouse to move the highlight bar around each window, or type the highlighted letter for each item on the keyboard, then press the [Spacebar] to toggle selections on or off. 
You may then select the print device or file. The default is PRN, the DOS print device. You may change this to another printer (for instance LPT2) or a DOS text file on disk (enter the path and file name to which you wish QmodemPro to save your Phonebook text file. é
The output from the print phonebook command is one record per line, and is not formatted for line length. You should take your printer's maximum line length into consideration when selecting fields to output, and you may want to make use of the Pre and Post-Print setup strings on the Config menu to change the "characters per inch" setting on your printer to accommodate wider lines. x▀'4
 ▄ Phonebook: Group Edit
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
OThis dialog box contains a window listing groups, and several control buttons. 
Use the Group Name field to store the name of the group, using a descriptive name such as "Mailrun" or "Games" or "Local BBSs" or anything else that describes what these systems have in common. Note that you can add the same entry to more than one group. æ
The "Continuous for All" toggle in the next field instructs QmodemPro to dial each entry until you have connected with each system on the list. ╛
The next two fields are selection lists. The window on the left side of the dialog box lists all your Phonebook entries, while the window on the right side lists the entries you have selected for your Group. To select an entry, highlight the system in the Phonebook Entries list, then press the Enter key, select the [Add] button or double-click the entry with the mouse. That name will then be copied automatically to the "Selected for Group". 
To remove an entry from your Group, go to the "Selected for Group" window, highlight the entry you wish to delete, and press Enter, select the [Remove] button or double-click the entry with the mouse. To remove ALL entries from a group, press the [Clear] button. É
When you have finished building or revising your group list, select [OK] to save. You will then be returned to the "Group Options" dialog box. '*
 ▄ Phonebook: Group
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
∙Selected phonebook entries can be saved as named groups. These groups can be used for a variety of purposes, for instance you may select a group of entries and dial them immediately, or tag them for further processing from the Phonebook dialog box. )
To revise a group, highlight the group you wish to edit, then select the [Revise] button. The "Revise" dialog box operates in exactly the same way as the "Add" dialog box. The only difference is that [Add] begins with a clean slate, and [Revise] loads the information from the highlighted Group. d
To delete an entire group, highlight the group you wish to remove, and select the [Remove] button. µ
The [Tag Only] button is used to tag all the members of the group and returns back to the main phonebook. Note that this operation first un-tags any tagged entries in the Phonebook, then applies tags to the entries in the group. ƒ
The [OK-Dial] button is used to immediately begin dialing all members of the group. The "Dialer" dialog box will appear, showing the progress of the call(s). W
The [Close] button closes the "Group" dialog box and returns to the Phonebook screen. '6
 ▄ Phonebook: Quick Learn
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
@This button signals QmodemPro to create a QuickLearn script for the tagged entry. If no script file name has been specified for the entry, a dialog box will pop up, prompting you to enter a script filename. The letter "Q" will appear instead of a check mark in the "tagged" field beside the entry in the directory list. É
Connecting to a Q-tagged entry activates the QuickLearn Script Recorder. When you connect, QuickLearn will begin rewriting the script for you. '

 ▄ Phonebook
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
└QmodemPro's Phonebook, or dialing directory, is a dialog box organized in much the same way as your personal address book. Like your address book, it can contain information including the system name, telephone numbers, your login name, password, and communication parameters. You can also add notes to each entry, to record more detailed information and comments. And entries can be marked and organized into groups for multiple dialing sessions. ╤
The Phonebook screen is divided into two sections. The upper section is a list box, displaying directory entries, while the lower screen section contains control buttons for all available Phonebook commands. 
 The Directory
|
The directory is organized in columns, with related information about each entry displayed horizontally across the screen. 
 Num
≥
This is the entry's position on the list. As you add and delete entries, the phonebook automatically re-sizes to accommodate the list. A maximum of 4095 entries are supported, and that's a lot of people to "reach out an touch" with a modem! 
 ≈√ƒ
║
The next field consists of a group of symbol characters representing special attributes possessed by the entry next to which they appear. The meaning of these characters is as follows: 
 ≈ - This entry has a note file attached.
 √ - This entry has been tagged as part of a dialing queue or
     deletion.
 ƒ - This entry corresponds to a FAX number instead of a
     modem number.
  - This symbol indicates that incoming and or outgoing mail
     packets are present for the entry. The left pointing
     arrow indicates an outgoing reply packet waiting, a right
     pointing arrow indicates an incoming mail packet, while a
     double pointed arrow indicates the presence of both
     incoming and outgoing mail.

 Service
~
The third field is for the "Service" name. This is the name of the Online Service, Bulletin Board System or remote computer. ~
The columns of information starting with "Primary Number" can be scrolled left and right using the scroll bar or arrow keys. ',
 ▄ Phonebook: Dialer
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
vThe top left corner displays the System name, phone number, and hardware device through which the call is being made. █
At the top right, the name of the script file attached to this entry is displayed, along with statistical information: last date connected, the last connection time, and the total number of connections to this system. B
The middle part of the screen shows the dialing information for this system: time to wait for a connection, seconds to pause between calls, and the number of dial attempts so far for this system. On the right is the current time, from the system clock on your computer, and the time the current dialing sequence started. å
The bottom half of the dialog box is a status window, displaying the dial command, the device response, and the status of the timer. ö
When a successful connection is made, the screen will clear, and QmodemPro will go into terminal mode, allowing you to log into the remote system. -
While in the dialer window, pressing [Cycle] cancels the current call and starts dialing the next tagged entry. [Untag] cancels the current call, removes the entry from the queue and then moves on to the next entry in the queue. [Extend] increases the number of seconds in the current Timer display. '8
 ▄ Phonebook: Send Replies
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
#This dialog box shows all phonebook entries with outgoing mail packets waiting. You may remove any entries from this list which you do not want to dial by pressing [Spacebar] or double-clicking on the entry. All entries tagged when you press [OK] will be queued up and dialed automatically. «
If you are using a login script that checks for the value of the GETMAIL flag, you may set this flag to "true" by checking the option box in the bottom part of this window. ',
 ▄ Phonebook: Delete
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
£The Delete dialog allows you to selectively delete the entire phonebook entry, just the attached Note File if any, or any outbound E-Mail REP or FAX files. â
Selecting "Phonebook entry" will remove all three parts at once. In addition, all Groups are updated to remove the deleted entry. ╦
You can tag more than one entry for deletion. In this case, the [OK for All] button allows you to set the "Items to Delete" just once, and then acts on all the tagged entries without further prompting. â
If you press [OK] with multiple tags, each entry be displayed and allow you to set the "Items to Delete" for each one separately. '8
 ▄ Error loading Phonebook

 ▄ Select Upload/Download Protocol
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
ÜSelecting a protocol is the first step in a file transfer. This window shows the protocol list, including internal and (if configured) external protocols. As with all other QmodemPro dialog boxes, use your mouse or arrow keys to highlight the selection, then press [OK] to select and proceed with the operation. Internal Protocols are shown on left side of the list, and externals are shown on the right side. C
When transferring files, both the sending and receiving computers must use the same communication protocol. That means that if you have selected Xmodem-1k on the BBS, you must also select Xmodem-1k from the protocol selection window. Failure to match protocols at both ends can cause transfers to abort or otherwise fail. °
Since each BBS or online service may use a slightly different method for selecting file transfer protocols, you should make sure you have selected the proper protocol on the BBS or online service before making the protocol selection in QmodemPro. '*
 ▄ Host Mode Config

 ┌─ Mode ────────────────────────────────┐
 │ () Open  ( ) Closed  ( ) Callback    │
 └───────────────────────────────────────┘
)An OPEN system is the simplest to use and maintain. Anyone who calls your QmodemPro Host will be permitted to log on and register as a new user. As new callers log in, QmodemPro Host automatically updates its user record file (QMHOST.PWD). All new users are assigned a security level of 0 (zero). √
In a CLOSED system, only callers whose names and passwords are defined in the QMHOST.PWD file will be able to log on. If the caller's name is not on file, QmodemPro Host displays a brief message that the system is closed, and disconnects the caller. ▄
A CALLBACK system mode is similar to a CLOSED system in that it requires the callers' name and passwords to be in the QMHOST.PWD file. In addition, CALLBACK requires that the callers' DATA Phone Number also be on file. ╢
When callers log on, they will be instructed to hang up and place their modem into Auto-Answer mode. The Host will then hang up and immediately dial the caller's data phone number. @

 ┌─ Baudrate ────────────────────────────────┐
 │ ( ) 110  ( ) 300  ( ) 1200  () 2400  ... │
 └───────────────────────────────────────────┘
hThe Baud Rate is the speed at which the COM port operates and should in most cases match the top speed of the device, or the locked DTE speed for high speed modems. Supported speeds are 110, 300, 200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 and 115200. QmodemPro will automatically use a lower speed upon connection, if necessary. The default baud rate is 2400. J
With many error-correcting and high-speed modems, the COM speed should be set higher than the modem's nominal communications speed. For example, the USR Courier v.32bis modem, rated at 14400 baud, functions efficiently with a COM speed of 38400 baud. Consult your modem manual for additional information on supported COM speeds. ú
 ┌─ Parity ─────────────────────────────────────────┐

 └──────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Parity is used to insure the validity of the data being transmitted and received. Parity values are None, Odd, Even, Mark and Space. This value must match that used by the computer being called. Most Bulletin Board Systems and Online Services use None (no parity), the default value. 7
 ┌─ Data ───────┐
 │ ( ) 7  () 8 │
 └──────────────┘
ïCharacters transmitted over phone lines are made up of data bits. For systems which support text and binary program file transfers (i.e., most PC-based BBS systems), 8 data bits are required. When communicating with mainframe or minicomputer-based systems, 7 data bits is often used. Supported settings are 7 and 8. This setting must match that of the software operating on the remote computer. 7
 ┌─ Stop ───────┐

 ▄ Device: Hardware: Port Config
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
ÖPort addresses are hardware-dependent values which define the computer's communications ports. QmodemPro allows you to define up to eight communications ports (COM1 through COM8). Two COM ports (COM1 and COM2) are standard for most IBM PC, XT, AT, PS/2 and compatible machines. This does not mean that all machines have both ports. These are optional. You still have to verify which ports you have available. 
 Com1 - Com8
¥
This is the COM port number, from COM1 through COM8. The default is port 1. For port addresses higher than 2 be sure to configure the Base address and IRQ. 
 Base
 
These are the computer's COM port hardware addresses. QmodemPro supports default assignments for two serial ports, COM1 and COM2. For PC/XT/AT and compatibles equipped with IBM-standard adapters, the port address and IRQ assignments need not be changed. ┘
On non-PS/2 machines, port assignments above COM2 are non-standard. Refer to the adapter or internal modem's documentation for specific hardware information. Generally, the following are valid for COM1 through COM4: à
      COM1   Base: 03F8   IRQ: 4
      COM2   Base: 02F8   IRQ: 3
      COM3   Base: 03E8   IRQ: 4
      COM4   Base: 02E8   IRQ: 3
b
On the IBM PS/2 microchannel based computers, the following ports are considered "IBM Standard": ╟
      COM3   Base: 3220   IRQ: 3
      COM4   Base: 3228   IRQ: 3
      COM5   Base: 4220   IRQ: 3
      COM6   Base: 4228   IRQ: 3
      COM7   Base: 5220   IRQ: 3
      COM8   Base: 5228   IRQ: 3

 IRQ

 Flow Control
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
 ┌────────────────┐
 │ [X] XON/XOFF   │
 └────────────────┘
⌐Xon/Xoff is a software flow control protocol used during normal text and ASCII transmissions. This toggle can also be changed from terminal mode with the Alt+1 command. 
XOFF and XON are ^S (Ctrl+S) and ^Q (Ctrl+Q) characters, respectively. Most BBS and mainframe systems use XON and XOFF as a method of pacing text data transmissions. If the XON/XOFF toggle is ON, QmodemPro will send the XOFF character when its receive buffer is almost full. 
As text is displayed, the receive buffer empties and can accept more data. QmodemPro then sends the XON character to resume transmission. Note that the XON/XOFF software flow control is not used during Binary file transfer protocols except Kermit and Zmodem. =
 ┌────────────────┐
 │ [X] CTS/RTS    │
 └────────────────┘
`When set to ON, QmodemPro uses hardware handshaking between the modem and computer. This is required for high speed and error-correcting modems. Since additional signals are required to implement hardware handshaking, make sure when using an external modem that your modem cable supports the CTS (Clear to Send) and RTS (Request to Send) signal lines. =
 ┌────────────────┐
 │ [X] DSR/DTR    │
 └────────────────┘
nDSR/DTR flow control is similar to CTS/RTS, but uses the Data Set Ready and Data Terminal Ready signal lines. :
NOTE: NEVER set this option when using a modem unless specifically told to by the remote system you are connecting to!  This option is primarily for "direct connections to Mini and Mainframe computers. Setting this option for modems may cause the modem to hang up and drop carrier on receipt of full-screen text. =
 ┌────────────────┐
 │ [X] DTR Locked │
 └────────────────┘
≤The DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) speed, or port speed, is the rate at which your computer sends data to the serial port. Many high speed modems perform best when the DTE rate is locked at a higher rate of speed than the actual connect speed. ε
When ON, QmodemPro maintains the serial port speed at the rate defined in the phonebook entry being dialed. When set to OFF, QmodemPro allows the serial port speed to be determined by the speed identified in the modem's CONNECT message. Ç

∞The modem returns an "OK" message when the last command was received and executed successfully. For Hayes and compatible modems, use "OK". For modems which do not return a response to the Initialization command, leave this field blank. j
 ┌──────────────╥────────────────┐
 │  Cancel Dial ║ ^M             │
 └──────────────╨────────────────┘
This string will be sent to the modem when a dial request is to be canceled (when [Cycle] or [Untag] is pressed from the Dialer screen while dialing is in progress). Most modems accept ^M. If your modem seems intermittent canceling the call in progress, change this to ^M^~^M. j
 ┌──────────────╥────────────────┐
 │  Auto Answer ║ ATS0=1^M       │
 └──────────────╨────────────────┘
FThis is the command to put the modem into "Auto Answer" mode, causing the modem to answer after receiving the number of rings specified. The complement to turn off Auto-Answer is sending the Modem Init command. If you use Auto-Answer,  verify that your Modem Init command is sufficient to disable this in the modem or device. |
 ┌──────────────╥──────────────────────┐
 │       Hangup ║ ^~^~^~+++^~^~^ATH0^M │
 └──────────────╨──────────────────────┘
┼This command will cause Hayes and compatible modems to hang up. Each ^~ pair causes a 1/2 second delay. In the example above, the +++ modem escape sequence is preceded and followed by a 1.5 second delay. This delay, referred to as escape guard time, is required for the modem to recognize the escape sequence and switch to command mode. The ATH0^M (note the 0 is a zero, not a capital letter O) command then instructs the modem to go on-hook (hang up). s
For modems which recognize lowering of the DTR signal as a disconnect method, enter the word  DTR  in this field. ▓
Entering the word  BREAK  will send the modem BREAK signal. Some modems attached to PBX (Private Branch eXchange, or switchboard) require a BREAK in order to disconnect a call. j

└Prefix and Suffix characters are used at the beginning or end of phone numbers (or anywhere between) to add standard and repetitive dialing information to the numbers as they are dialed. A prefix may be as simple as "Dial 9 to get out" or "Dial 1 for long distance", or it may hold a 7-digit SPRINT or MCI local access number. When used at the end of a number, the prefix becomes a Suffix which may be used to store a PBX access code, for example. φ

~QmodemPro can communicate with a wide variety of hardware devices -- modems, FAX cards, and network modem pools, for example. É
The Device list is the heart of QmodemPro's ability to communicate. You can define up to 10 unique devices, or clone the same device making slight modifications. Such as, making your device use 7-E-1 or 8-N-1, a different baud rate, or even defining a fax modem so that one entry is for maximum speed on normal online communications and another specific to sending faxes from the dialing directory. a
The Default Device is the device that will be used when adding new entries to a phonebook, or when dialing with a phonebook that contains devices that you do not have defined. For example:  you have a 2400 generic modem at home and your office has a high-speed whiz-bang do-it-all modem. The phonebook at the office would have the whiz-bang defined in all the dialing directory entries. You could bring home the QMPRO.FON phonebook and without revising any entries, dial from the office phonebook. Since the whiz-bang is not defined in your home device list, the "Default Device" will be used automatically!

╓Translation may be necessary when communicating with another computer whose ASCII codes (the computer's alphabet) do not match those used by your PC. There are 256 ASCII characters, ranging in value from 0 to 255. ╠
The Input table controls which incoming characters are allowed and which are translated to other characters, while the Output table controls which characters are sent out your modem to the other system. ╟
Selecting Input or Output displays a screen containing the first 128 ASCII values (0 through 127) and their respective translations. To display and edit the High Bits, use the [Swap Hi/Low] button. <
To change (translate) an incoming or outgoing ASCII value: 
1. Using the mouse or the [Tab] key, move the highlight bar to the desired ASCII value you want to strip or replace. The number on the left is the original ASCII value; the number on the right is the translated character which you will see when the original character is received. û
2. Enter the ASCII value in decimal of the character you wish to translate. To strip the character, replace the number on the right with a 0 (Zero). S

 └─────────────────────┘
.Strict Color will control what color is selected when Esc[m or Esc[0m is executed. When set ON, the color becomes "white on black." When set OFF, it becomes the color set by "Screen Text" in the color configuration section. To remain compatible with previous versions of QmodemPro, the default is OFF. L
 ┌─────────────────────┐
 │ [X] Line Wrap       │
 └─────────────────────┘
YThis controls how the cursor reacts when it writes a character in the last column on the screen (usually column 80). When set ON, the cursor moves the next line down, performing a Line Feed if the cursor was on the last line on the screen. When set OFF, the cursor writes the character in the last column, but does not advance to the next line. L
 ┌─────────────────────┐
 │ [ ] Display Nulls   │
 └─────────────────────┘
╟This controls how the NULL (0x00) character is handled when received. If this is set ON, then the Null character is displayed as a Space. When set OFF, the NULL is stripped from the incoming screen. L
 ┌─────────────────────┐
 │ [X] Status Line     │
 └─────────────────────┘
SThis toggle controls displaying of the status line (the last line of the physical screen). When OFF, the QmodemPro status line is not displayed and the last screen line is available for incoming text display. When ON (the default), the status line is used to display the status of the Terminal mode and options of various command windows. L
 ┌─────────────────────┐
 │ [X] Erase Backspace │
 └─────────────────────┘
This controls whether or not the character to the left of the cursor is erased when a Backspace character (^H or DEL) is received. When ON, the character is erased before the cursor is moved to the left. When OFF, the cursor moves leaving the character to the left untouched. L
 ┌─────────────────────┐
 │ [ ] Add LF to CR    │
 └─────────────────────┘
3Different kinds of computers use different characters to indicate a line ending. The IBM PC and compatible machines use two characters, a Carriage Return and a Line Feed, to end a line and move to the beginning of the next line. Some other computers, however, use only a Carriage Return, with no line feed. Å
If each line of text in terminal overwrites the previous line, rather than displaying on the next line of the screen, try setting this to ON. L
 ┌─────────────────────┐
 │ [ ] 8th Bit Strip   │
 └─────────────────────┘
NThis toggle turns the stripping of the high-bit ON and OFF. QmodemPro starts in 8-bit mode by default. This can be changed with a Script command to automate high-bit stripping, for example when calling CompuServe. Some BBSs use fancy graphics characters and ANSI escape codes. To display these properly, 8 bit mode must be in effect. ^
The Status Line will display an "8" or "7" in the Toggles area to reflect the current modem. '*
 ▄ Color Selections
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
╣The colors and screen attributes of virtually every part of QmodemPro can be customized from this menu, and each terminal emulation mode can have its own complete set of custom colors. 
The Monochrome Herc and LCD Laptop entries are intended for standard monochrome displays and Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) on laptop computers, which can only display shades of gray. A pre-defined selection of Bronco Blue, Raging Red and Passion Purple shades are provided. e
Colors are a cosmetic feature and have no effect on QmodemPro's operation. First-time users should select one of the pre-defined color combinations and concentrate on other sections of the QmodemPro setup. Colors may be customized easily after all other operational parameters. The default colors can always be restored from the "Install Default" section. î
The Custom Colors screen allows you to preview your color selections. QmodemPro displays color options appropriate to the type of video adapter in your system: Normal, Highlight, Underline and Inverse for monochrome systems capable of displaying these attributes, or a palette of foreground and background colors. Use your mouse or arrow keys to highlight and select colors from these palettes. '

 ▄ Terminal Emulation
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
▓The Terminal Emulation feature allows QmodemPro to behave like a terminal other than a standard PC display, for example the VT100 from Digital Equipment Corp. While in terminal emulation mode, QmodemPro interprets device-dependent information so that it is displayed properly on the PC screen as if it were a native terminal of the specified type. Note that terminal emulations can also be specified for individual phonebook entries. J
Many of the most popular terminal emulations are supported by QmodemPro: ╤
 TTY        No emulation at all
 ANSI       Emulates the ANSI.SYS of PC-DOS
 VT52       Emulates the Digital VT52

 ▄ Phonebook Device List Mismatch
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
IThere are one or more entries in the phonebook being loaded that point to devices you do not have defined. This more of an information dialog than an error. When one of the entries in the phonebook is dialed, and it tries to use one of the devices in this list, the Default Device defined in Config Device will actually be used. 
In the case of sharing phonebooks between to different installations of QmodemPro, it is possible that each site has defined different devices. This is OK, and without any user intervention, both can immediately dial with the phonebook and not have to revise anything. B
To keep this dialog from displaying, simply "clone" your default device in Config Devices and rename the cloned entry to match one of the devices that shows in this dialog. Repeat this for all the devices shown. Next time you load this phonebook, all the devices will be locatable and you need not see this dialog again. ½
Or, you can press the [Replace with Default] button. This will go through the new phonebook and replace any devices listed as not found with your current Default Device. '.

 ▄ File Transfer Protocols
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ ASCII         │
 └───────────────┘
yThe ASCII protocol is used primarily for on-line text file transfers. It does not support the transfer of binary data such as programs or compressed files.  There is no error checking performed during the transfer which makes it highly susceptible to line noise.  It is advised to use XON/XOFF software flow control with this protocol. Failure to do so may cause loss of data. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ XMODEM        │
 └───────────────┘
&The Xmodem protocol is a block oriented file transfer protocol capable of sending text and binary data.  It uses a simple checksum error detection algorithm with an accuracy rate of 99.6%.  Xmodem uses a 128-byte data block that requires the remote to acknowledge each block as it is received. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ XMODEM-CRC    │
 └───────────────┘
ìXmodem-CRC is a slightly modified Xmodem protocol that uses a more robust error detection algorithm (CRC) with an accuracy rate of 99.9969%. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ 1K-XMODEM     │
 └───────────────┘
╫1K-Xmodem is based on the Xmodem-CRC protocol, but increases the size of the data packets (blocks) to 1024 bytes.  This can increase throughput dramatically for modems that do not support built-in error-correction. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ 1K-XMODEM/G   │
 └───────────────┘
â1K-Xmodem/G is based on the 1K-Xmodem protocol with the additional support for modems and devices that have built-in error detection and correction.  Since the modems handle any bad blocks, no error detection is done by the protocol. This also means that the receiving side does not have to acknowledge the receipt of each block and so the protocol is considered a "streaming" protocol. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ YMODEM        │
 └───────────────┘
hThe Ymodem protocol is a true implementation of the YMODEM BATCH protocol and supports the transfer of multiple files within a single transfer session without user intervention.  It is based on the 1K-Xmodem protocol with the inclusion of file "headers" that describe the file or files sent to the receiver.  Blocks can vary between 128 and 1024-byte packets. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ YMODEM/G      │
 └───────────────┘
<Ymodem/G is the "streaming" version of the Ymodem protocol. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ ZMODEM        │
 └───────────────┘
╬Zmodem is a popular streaming protocol that supports such features as batch transfers, varying block sizes and "Crash Recovery".  The latter being useful to resume a failed transfer at the point it failed. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ KERMIT        │
 └───────────────┘
äThis is the transfer protocol that became popular in the early 70's that allowed mini and mainframes to exchange data and files.  Kermit was created at Columbia University and is available for free for any system that requests it.  This protocol supports batch transfers like Ymodem.  In addition, support for newer options such as "Sliding Windows" and "Long Packets" has been included. :
 ┌───────────────┐
 │ CIS B+        │
 └───────────────┘
ºThis protocol is used by CompuServe to speed transfers to/from the CIS mainframe.  All three implementations of CIS B (B, B+ and Quick-B) are supported automatically. ' 
 ▄ System Name

öThis is the name of the System or BBS you are dialing.  It can be any text string up to 27 characters in length.  Descriptive names are encouraged. '&
 ▄ Primary Number
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
╚This is the Primary number used for dialing.  This number is the first number that will be tried.  If you are also using Alternate Numbers, then this should be the entry you always want to try first. ▒
Numbers are limited to 19 characters.  If you need more characters for long-distance carriers such as MCI or Sprint, then use the Device Prefix modifiers to extend the number. ╕á'*
 ▄ Alternate Number
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
⌐These are alternate numbers that should be dialed if the Primary Number is busy or disabled for some reason.  You can have up to 4 alternate numbers for any one system. ▒
Numbers are limited to 19 characters.  If you need more characters for long-distance carriers such as MCI or Sprint, then use the Device Prefix modifiers to extend the number. ╖d'
 ▄ Retries
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
¬This setting allows you to control how many times the entry is redialed if you do not get a connection for whatever reason.  A value of 0 (zero) means there is no limit. '
 ▄ User-ID
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
TThis field stores your User-ID or Name for the system.  When using a BBS, this might be your first and last name.  If you are calling CompuServe, this should be set to your CIS ID.  It is important that when using the QMGATE program, it expects this field to be filled in with your CIS or MCI User ID.  You are allowed up to 30 characters. T
When using scripts, this field will be transferred to the $USERID script variable. '
 ▄ Password
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
═This field stores your Password for the system.  It is important that when using the QMGATE program, it expects this field to be filled in with your Password to CIS or MCI.  You are allowed 25 characters. V
WHen using scripts, this field will be transferred to the $PASSWORD script variable. '
 ▄ Memo
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
This field stores a short 30 character Memo about the entry.  If the entry is marked as Fax Dial Only, then this field will automatically transfer to the "To:" field in the Send Fax dialog.  If you always send a fax to the same person, then save a step and use the Memo field for this. '
 ▄ Key File
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
ZThis is the name of a keyboard template to use with this system.  If left blank, the name of the Emulation will be used instead.  If you have a system that needs custom macros and have already created the KEY file, fill in the name here.  Do not include the extension ".KEY" as that is the default and will be forced when the KEY file is loaded. ' 
 ▄ Script File
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
This is the name of a Script file to be executed when you connect to the system. Do not include the ".SCR" extension as this is forced when the Script is loaded. If the script does not already exist, the QuickLearn will be turned on automatically and "learn" from your keystrokes. ' 
 ▄ Packet Name
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
±This is the name of a MAIL packet that is associated with the system.  With QWK/REP mail systems, this name is unique to the system being called.  Consult with the System Operator (SYSOP) of the BBS as to what name should be placed in here. ¼
If you are using CompuServe or MCI mail, then the packet name should be CISMAIL or MCIMAIL respectively.  The QMGATE program will expect these packet names in this field. ╠
The Packet name is the key to enabling the [Read New Mail] and [Send Replies] buttons in the dialing directory.  At least one entry in the phonebook must have a Packet defined for these buttons to work. '$
 ▄ Device to use
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
sThis is the device to use when dialing the system.  If the Device name exists in you Config Device list, then that device will be selected and initialized just prior to dialing.  If the device name does -not- exist in your list, then the "Default Device" you have defined is used.  To select a different device, press the down arrow, or click the pointer with the mouse. 
There are two special cases, "**Default Device**" and "**Current Device**" that can be assigned.  The device "**Default Device**" will always reference the device you have made the default in Config/Device.  The device "**Current Device**" will always reference the currently active device.  This could be the last dialed device, or the last device selected with the Alt+K command. '
 ▄ Emulation
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
╕This field defines the terminal emulation to be selected when you connect with this system.  To select a different emulation, press the down arrow or click the pointer with the mouse. ',
 ▄ Transfer Protocol

└This is the default transfer protocol to be selected when you press PgUp or PgDn from terminal mode.  To select a different protocol, press the down arrow or click the pointer with the mouse. ' 
 ▄ Fax Options
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
╦Check the Fax Device Only box if you wish this entry to send faxes.  You should also verify that the Device to use is also defined as a "Fax Device".  This is required to enable QmodemPro to send faxes. '
 ▄ Duplex
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
ßThis setting controls the Duplex used when you connect to the system.  In most cases, you would have "Full" selected.  If you see your text doubled, or not at all when you type, this means you have the wrong Duplex selected. '
 ▄ Connects
 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
ªThis field stores the total number of times you dialed -and connected- to this system.  You can manually change this field to any value in the range of 0 to 9999999. '(
