VERSION EQU 245 ; IMP (06/01/87) - CP/M-80 MODEM PROGRAM ; ;----------------------------------------------------------------------- ; o Added capability to send a break tone. This is tripped by typing ; ESC Q. (ESC is the 'EXTCHR' character stored at 0114h and can be ; changed to another character if preferred. The 'Q' is stored at ; '011Dh and is the 'BRKCHR' in the new overlays dated 01 June 87. ; ; o Changed routine for sending batch header, constructs the header ; BEFORE looking for a 'C' from remote, also uses the conventional ; 'GTACK' routine, saving bytes. ; ; o Increased most "RECV" times for PC Pursuit satelite networks, made ; the manual abort routine more robust to give additional protection ; against inadvertent aborts. ; ; o Added 'TIG' option to toggle the 'IGNORCTL' option on/off. Normal ; use would leave this in the "only essential CTL-characters will be ; received" mode. If using a remote editor, you may need to receive ; all control characters so select the 'TIG' option at that time. A ; menu shows what is in use, by typing 'ESC ?' in the command mode. ; ; o File name being sent or received is now shown as part of the mes- ; displayed during file transfers. ; ; o If uploading in KMD batch file mode, will now say "File exists, ; select another name" if the host system (1) already has a file ; with that name and (2) is running KMD22 dated 22 Feb 87 (or newer ; if such exists when reading this update). ; ; o Goodbye routine significantly changed to insure any incoming char- ; acters are stopped if possible before attempting to disconnect the ; modem from the phone line. This routine was placed in the main ; program, simplifying the routine in each overlay. ; ; o Initialization routines in main program changed to insure the line ; is onhook when autodialing a phone number. (A few who use BYE for ; their RCPM needed this feature since BYE has an offhook option. ; When they selected (any) modem program after using BYE, they could ; not get a dial tone without an intentional abort which resets the ; modem to onhook.) This is no longer a problem. ; ; o Other modest changes, several messages changed slightly. ; ; - Irv Hoff ; ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------
