Released version 6.0
6.01
-allow character #127 to duplicate backspace
-multiple file download in zmodem (internal only!)
-%MULT parameter in runp/exec and external protocol lines will query
for multiple (up to 5) filenames.
-%MULT will create file FNAMES.BBS with list of files. You may
then use the file redirector in a protocol to access these files..
example
dsz port 2 sz %MULT
-put default protocol in user's record. If defined system will
not ask for protocol. Presently the only way to define is via STAT command
-%MULTFILE will first request multiple files to d/l and then
substitute the words FNAMES.BBS for the %MULTFILE parameter in
the command line.
