[net.micro.att] Umodem source for new 7300 file transfer

richmon@astrovax.UUCP (Michael Richmond) (01/23/86)

Thanks to a number of kind individuals, I have a file transfer
program to start up on the VAX here whenever I call in from
my 7300 and want to use the <shift-cmd> options to move stuff
from one machine to the other. If anyone else needs the
source, please let me know and I'll E-mail it. The file
is on the order of 1500 lines long, mostly because it contains
so many #ifdefs for use on different systems.

On another note, I tried to run a plotting program I'd written
a while ago for the 7300 (almost ready for distribution)
after upgrading to version 3 and noticed a few differences.
For one thing, a window which before had been borderless now
had a border, which I would guess is due to differences in
the TAM routines. Also, GSS Graphics routines no longer produced
output in the window, with either the old (version 1.0) or new
(version 1.1) releases. However, and ioctl() call that reversed
all pixels in the window did still work. Any ideas?

Perhaps these changes are documented some where, but since I got
no new manual pages, nor GSS Graphics manual, only documentation
on using the new Office, I really don't know. Are there some
things that I should have gotten but didn't? If so, what are
the titles so I can sound authoratative when I call up the
AT&T operators?
