from an ST to an IBM compatible.
Thank you.

Hi Theo
I take it you want to keep the 1st word format, ie you dont want to
send straight ascii?
IF you use UNiterm on the ST and Kermit on the Rainbow, or whatever,
you can transfer in binary mode, then you could try using them in the
PC version of 1st word plus.
If you havnt got a program on the pc that takes 1st word plus format,
then you will have to save the file as ascii in the 1st word menu.
before transferring.
cheers
Pat K.

| 684.2 | Is Uniterm only for Dec persons? | KERNEL::BARTLEY | Mon Nov 27 1989 12:37 | 8 | |
Thanks Pat.
It is a friend of a friend that has the problem. Am I allowed to
give him a copy of Uniterm (he's non-Dec)?

| 684.3 | Uniterm is public domain | OLDTMR::WALLACE | Mon Nov 27 1989 13:05 | 5 | |
Uniterm is PD so there is no problem with giving him a copy. There is another terminal emulator program called WHACK written by Jeff Lomicka which IS "For DEC Internal Use Only"! Ray | |||||
| 684.4 | "Sneakernet" works too | PRNSYS::LOMICKAJ | Jeffrey A. Lomicka | Mon Nov 27 1989 15:35 | 5 |
Since WHACK doens't do KERMIT, it won't help here. If the IBM Clone has 3.5" floppy disks, you can write the file out to a floppy that is formatted on the IBM, and you will then be able to read it back on either machine. | |||||
| 684.5 | Thank you. It worked. | KERNEL::BARTLEY | Mon Dec 11 1989 02:46 | 7 | |
Re: .4
