If someone gets VT100 2.6 compiled succesfully, would you be so kind as to mail me a copy of the executable? Thanks. -- Blaine Gardner @ Evans & Sutherland UUCP Address: {ihnp4,decvax}!decwrl!esunix!blgardne Alternate: {ihnp4,seismo}!utah-cs!utah-gr!uplherc!esunix!blgardne

Why don't we all ask Dave Wecker (The Author) to send an executable with his source? We all wouldn't have to compile it ourselves, and those of us who do not have a compiler would be able to use it. A simple uuencoded executable would be quite satisfactory. We could just use the uudecoder on Fish Disk ~41. So Dave, here's my vote. PLEASE send an executable with your source.

Maybe someone should just post it.

I agree that it would be nice if dave posted a uuecoded version to the net, but I want to know why the thing doesn't work when I compile it with Lattice. I get lots of weird problems but, in general, it has to do with requestors at funny times(at the end of scripts) and file transfers not working at all(to/from unix kermit). I want to modify the menues and a few other things but not if the original version doesn't work. Jim Sanchez

I've also had the problem with UNIX Kermit, even with VT100 version 2.4 (when I compiled it with Lattice). When I attempt to transfer an ASCII text file from a UNIX VAX to my Amiga, the transfer seems to work OK, but the file ends up on my Amiga as a lot of random binary gibberish. Neither CRLF nor Image mode work. So I've temporarily gone back to XMODEM. Before I attempt to compile VT100 v2.6 thru Lattice, does anyone have any suggestions for this problem? Thanx in advance!!

The sending Kermit checks its values (file type binary aka Image, etc.) and then sends a packet to the receiving Kermit saying that the transfer will take place using these values. The receiving Kermit tells sending Kermit which of those it can't do (some Kermits don't know compression or 8-th bit quoting) and the transfer begins. To get a file from Unix to the Amiga intact (binary) you should start Kermit and then tell it: "set file type binary" If you go from VMS to the Amiga (or Unix to an IBM PC) and are sending text you need to: "set file type text" This will change the CR/LF values of your machine to the receiving machine. Unix and the Amiga use LF for EOLN (end of line) so "binary" (no change) work fine. VMS uses CR/LF so you get ^M's (control-M's) or carriage returns added to each line (double line spacing). Mac (I think) only uses CR with no LF, so files going either way end up with no line breaks unless you use "text" mode. Just trying to clear up any confusion with my favorite program. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Randy Spencer P.O.

Thanx in advance!! A serious, straight-faced [ 8^| ] suggestion -- get a copy of Amiga Kermit! For large file transfers, it's hard to beat! I use vt100 version 2.4, compiled with Lattice 3.03, for terminal emulation and enjoy it. I have had no problems with it (other than not having the time to dig into it and find out why it doesn't auto-wrap). But Amiga Kermit has the ability to control transfers from a "take file" -- a file containing a sequence of Kermit commands. I have a shell script on our VAX to generate the script, so I can copy a disk-full while I sleep. I have had no problems with Amiga Kermit on either ASCII or binary files. (Well, one slight problem -- on certain ASCII files, the trailing newline is omitted. Make the file one character longer and it transfers correctly. Annoying, but not very serious.) I have version 4D(060) on my Amiga and 4D(061) on the VAX. Try it. You'll like it.
