- I am writing a bbs program that will run under ms-dos and will require a
- special term program. To do this properly, it would seem easiest to hook
- up two machines through the srial prot, and develop the bbs program on one,
- the the term on the other. However, I do not have two machines at my disposal,
- so I have a problem. I would like to use os2( I'm using it now anyways ) and
- run the term program in one window, and the bbs program in another. I can
- develop the software this way, and worry about adding the serial/phone routines
- when the bbs software is completely written/debugged. Does anyone know of a
- practical way to communicate between DOS windows in os2? I need to send
- information bolth ways, obviously, just like a bbs and term. Thank you
- for any help.
