I recently upgraded to a Mac+ and have VersaTerm2.01. VersaTerm used to work fine for doing file transfers but I can't seem to get it to work now. I use Mac Xmodem protocol and macput but I don't get the thermometer dialog or anything. The little send/receive light on my modem doesn't appear did be doing much either. All I get, after about 30 seconds or so, is an alert box saying that the file transfer was unsuccessful. The settings are: Xon/Xoff set No parity 8 bit character size 1.0 stop bits Is there something special one has to do to use VersaTerm2.01 with the Mac+ in order to tranfer files with macput? This is very frustrating and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Bill Roberts NCAR/HAO Boulder, CO !hao!bill

I use VersaTerm and while I can't comment on the exact problem here I HIGHLY recommend updating to the recent version 2.30 ($10). I can't comment on exactly what the differences are but the ones which come to mind are: much improved throughput, more macros can be defined, option keys can be tagged to macros, automatic macro definition including menu selection, time remaining in download, and more. Lonnie just keeps improving the program and the updates are extremely reasonable.
