[net.micro.apple] II+ Commo Packages

TMPLee@MIT-MULTICS.ARPA (09/08/84)

I apologize for not paying too close attention to the occasional msgs
about communications packages for the II+, so this may have already been
answered, but I'll ask again anyway.  I'm looking for a communications
package/ terminal emulator (though that's not so important) with the
following constraints:
   1) runs on Apple II+
   2) uses the Applied Engineering 80 col card (Videx compatible?)
   3) handles a Hayes SmartModem at 1200 baud
   4) can upload/download files on the Apple disk using X-on/X-off protocol
   5) can also copy to a printer (MX-80, though the type is probably not
          relevant.)
   6) full character set (shift-key mod)
   7) would be nice, but not essential, to emulate any terminal on which
          EMACS works well

Thanks,

Ted Lee

(my homebrew package does all except 4 and 7, and I'm almost too lazy to
dig into the interrupts and files system interface to modify it to do 4,
even less attracted by the need of 7) to write an intelligent terminal
emulator.)
