Formula 1 is a communication module that improves the performance of either FidoNet "Point" or BBS programs. F1 can be used as a replacement of TabbyNet and Call modules for Tabby and Copernicus; F1 can also be used with CounterPoint, MacWoof, Alice, Pizza, and Aeolus.
This is what F1 improves:
- Full support of EMSI, WaZoo and FTS-0001 protocols.
- File transfers with ZedZap and ZedZip with crash recovery
- Full support of high speed modems:
- serial speed up to 57600 baud
- hardware handshake
- Support for all the devices and tool registered with the Communication Toolbox.
- Private Nodelist allows different modem setup for selected nodes.
- Front-end mode and Serial Switch Tool support allows receiving crashmail calls even if the BBS software doesn't support them.
