- * Amiga Term version 1.1A (12-Jan-86)
- * ===================================
- *
- * A 300-9600 baud ASCII/XMODEM terminal program
- *
- * Written by Michael Mounier
- * Mods by J S Plegge
- * J V Nangano
- *
- *
- * Previous mods:
- * Rearranged menus
- * Default to 1200 baud
- * Dialer with phone number and modem prefix (ATDT) file
- * No longer tries to display non-printable chars
- * Text conversion on ASCII send/capture
- * (CR <=> LF, and non-printable chars are ignored)
- * Text conversion on XMODEM send/receive
- * (CR <=> LF, and non-printable chars are changed to spaces)
- * Bug fix in XMODEM block count display
- * CR is ignored in term mode; LF is treated as newline
- * Some code clean-up
- * Little nicer XMODEM user interface
- * NEWSIZE no longer clears the screen
- * XMODEM file display on send/receive
- *
- * Suggested Improvements:
- * Nicer XMODEM status display

- About the dialer:
-
- Aterm 1.1A looks for a file named "Aterm.phone" on the default directory
- to get the dialer information. Create this file with ED. The first line
- should contain the modem dial prefix (ATDT for Hayes, for instance), 10
- characters max. After that, enter 2 lines for each service. The first is
- the service name, and the second is the phone number. The name will show up
- on the menu. Name and number are limited to 20 characters each (which
- should be plenty). You can enter up to 10 service names/numbers.
-
- Here's an example "Aterm.phone" file:
-
- ATDT
- Delphi
- 423-9120
- Tymnet
- 731-8002
- CI$
- 241-3102
- Fido
- 232-6881
-
-
-
- Note that there's not a lot of error checking done here (it would help
- if I really knew C!), and Aterm 1.1A will simply abort if it can't find
- this file.

-
- About text conversions:
-
- The conversion of LF to CR on XMODEM upload means that you don't have to
- worry about the 255 character line limit on text XUPs to Delphi. It will
- translate each CR to CR/LF internally, so don't worry about it. The only
- (possible) problem with this is that a file will grow by 1 XMODEM block
- each trip to and from Delphi. Not a very common thing to do, but it is
- something to keep in mind.
-
- The conversion of CR to LF and non-printables to space on XMODEM download
- means that you'll be able to ED files that you download like this.
-
- ASCII capture/send conversions work much the same way.
