Hi..
|
|
|
|
DE> Thanks a lot for the tip that Commo is coming out with a version
|
|
DE> with built-in Zmodem. I will definitely get it, although I might
|
|
DE> wait till it gets out of betatest.

Fred hasn't said anything regarding when he plans a "release" version
|
|
with internal ZModem. I'm running 6.02 Beta "E" and it functions just
|
|
fine. Fred's pretty good about debugging his program before he ever
|
|
lets anyone else take a look at it, unlike some other "Betas".
|
|
|
|
There are some other interesting enhancements in the Beta besides
|
|
ZModem, e.g,,
|
|
___--
|
|
Macro Files may be compiled to increase speed, to reduce size and to
|
|
improve security of source code.
|
|
|
|
A variable "sel_pns" has been added to the Setup File. Set this to
|
|
"yes" if you have COMMOPNS.EXE in your "protodir" directory. This will
|
|
cause COMMOPNS to be used for file selection instead of the SELECT macro
|
|
|
|
Any key code obtained with Alt-K in the Internal Editor can now be
|
|
configured with the "mky" item in the Setup File. This allows any
|
|
built-in key label to be overridden. More importantly, it allows
|
|
separate macro definitions for the extra keypad keys on the enhanced
|
|
keyboard.
|
|
|
|
Control characters below ASCII 28 can now appear in {COMMO}'s support
|
|
files and variable strings (the only exceptions are ASCII 0, 10 and 13
|
|
-- these may never appear as data).
|
|
|
|
The SEND function has a new switch "N" for turning off control character
|
|
conversion. For example, {send-n abc|~} will send the actual string
|
|
"abc|~" and not convert the "|" or the "~".
|
|
|
|
GETString has a new switch "I" to allow input from the local terminal
|
|
only (characters from the remote will be buffered and characters entered
|
|
locally will not be sent to the remote). This switch overrides the
|
|
current setting of Echo Status from SETGet.
|
|
|
|
The LOOKfor timeout timer will now be restarted whenever a string is
|
|
sent by SSLOok. This will help prevent macros from aborting
|
|
prematurely.
|
|

|
|
If you're interested in checking out the Beta, dial 602-290-2807
|
|
(V.32bis/24h), login as "Beta Test" with password "Guest". This starts
|
|
an automatic ZModem transfer of the most current Beta with automatic
|
|
logoff at end of transfer. Total on-line time is less than a minute at
|
|
14.4Kbps. BTW, I'm the sysop of the system at that number.
