ACIDTEST is a arexx port testing program, originally designed for me to test ACIDMAN, without having to call my other phone line, each time I wanted to check a different operation. As it grew, I found that it could be used to send arexx messages to any Arexx port. It's operation is simple. On the main screen, are two radio buttons. The one labels "Number" and the other labeled "Arexx".
If you wish to test ACIDMAN, select "Number" as the option. Enter the test data in the Phone Number, Date, and Time fields. Make sure the listen port reflects the outport that ACIDMAN will be talking to. See ACIDMAN docs for more information on this. Click on "TEST".
If you wish to test another Arexx port, click on the "Arexx" radio button. Type in the name of the port you wish to talk to in the Talk Port field. Enter the command you wish to send in the Command field. If the program you are talking to responds back, set the Listen Port to the port name that program uses, to view the programs response. Now click on "TEST".
That's all there is too it. A future version may include a window showing all current arexx ports.
