[comp.sys.apple] QTERM, SoftCard CP/M, DEC VT-100, and other mumblelings...

Below is a message to the author of the QTERM patches (maybe mail server are
not working properly...). 

There are other questions following the mail msg.

[Hopefully, the mailer won't choke on the address]

I am trying to get QTERM to work with my Apple II+ and SoftCard CP/M (MicroSoft)
but what I need is the patch for the CCS 7710A Serial Card.


Can you help me?

ok some more:

1) What is the proper way to wire an RS232C cable so that it can connect an 
   Apple II+ (with a CCS 7710A card marked "DCE" in slot 1 to a TRS-80
   DC-1200 Modem (without the dialer module). There must be a "Terminal
   Ready" signal generated somewhere for the modem to work.

   Also is there a book for the CCS 7710A card (can't believe I've been 
   operating this long with out the book...)

2) I need a book that has the codes for the DEC VT-100 terminal so that
   I can generate (and have my ancient term interpret) through QTERM.

3) I would like to find another book that compares mainframe systems (DEC's
   VAX/VMS, IBM's MVS and VM/SP CMS, and UNIX, etc) and why those systems are
   "fighting amongst themselves" and why people gravitate towards one over 
   another.

Thanks.
