Hi, I'm looking for docs on how the punter file transfer protocol (ala Steve Punter) works. I have assembly code for it and I wan't to write a version of it in C. The assembly I have is not very well commented and an english explanation of the handshaking etc would make porting this much easier. If someone has C code for I'd appreciate that just as much (well probably more :-). ---Harris -- |Harris L.

I'm 99 11/100%ths sure one exists for IBM. From memory, the number is 416-896-1446 (evenings). This is Canadian, by the way, so it's a tad more expensive than the States. I haven't called for a few years, but Sprint seemed to have good connections and reasonable rates. ...
