QTCHAT.DYC QTERM chat scripts documentation
QTERM.CYM QTERM, unpatched
QTERM.DYC QTERM documentation
QTERM.FOR Quick description of what QTERM can do for you
QTERM.PYT Patch information for QTERM
VT100.TC UNIX Termcap entry that works with the VT100 emulator
QT-PATCH.ZY Patch area source, to provide a basis to work with
Patch info for making QTERM work on your system is included in QTERM.PAT.
As provided, QTERM will work on a Televideo 803 (or a TPC-1), because
that's what I developed it on. Note that not all the patches are
necessary, but the more optional ones you get going, the more features
QTERM will have. QTERM.PAT also includes a reference to a "1K patch
overlay". I'm trying to collect as many of these as possible, so if you
can, try to get yours back to me, with a memo telling which computer it
works on, and which of the optional patches you have included.
The .?Y? files are made with the new LZH compression method, this typically
produces files 10 to 15 to 20 % smaller than CRUNCH. EXL.COM (in EXL.LBR)
is one tool that will decompress these, or CRLZH??.LBR is the original
.LBR for LZH compression.
For those that are interested, the name actually arose because in mid 1985
I needed a terminal program for my CP/M machine (A Televideo 803) and
put a quick 1/2K program together in under an hour. This program has been
growing ever since, but the name Q(uick) TERM(inal) program remains.
It is now approaching 16K ....... :-)
I also give thanks to Dave Goodman, Tom Bopp, Larry Moore and Dave Presberg
for all their help in debugging and beta testing QTERM, and to all the other
people who have sent in patches and suggestions. I'd never have got it
anything like working and as full featured without all your help.
Credit is also due the unknown author of the UNIX Kermit implementation
that I used for the basis of the Kermit code here, and to Steve Grandi
who wrote the Xmodem program in C that provided the basis for the Xmodem
code in QTERM.
If you need to get hold of me for any reason (need help with patches, or
a patch file to send my way), I can be reaced at:
