[net.micro.6809] OS9-CU?

shawn@cdstar.UUCP (Shawn F. Mckay) (01/13/86)

Greetings, I wonder if anyone out there has a small portable OS9 hack to
help me capture files from a modem connection to a mainframe. I.e. like
UNIX cu with file capture... Or even just something to connect to remote
and send a given string, and then receive until eof.... Help? Ideas? 
Pointers? Thanks.

Well, there's Kermit for OS-9; there are XMODEM-based file transfer programs,
one that will do CompuServe B protocol, and so forth...which is preferable
under the circumstances you find yourself in?

XCOM9, a freeware program, is quite nice.  Various others exist in the CompuServe
OS-9 SIG download area.  okstate is the USENET distribution point for Kermit.
(I think XCOM9 is on the CIS download area, too.)

Microware sells a utility for 6809 OS-9 systems called "ninecom".  ninecom
is similar in function to the UNIX "cu" or "tip" programs.  ninecom allows
connection to a remote computer (need not be OS-9) via a modem link.  Files
and be up and downloaded if desired.  Contact Microware at 515-224-1929 for
more information.
