-> There are a number of ways to facilitate copying files between RSDOS
-> and OS9. The best way (in the level I era) was Rich Hogg's Xcopy (sold
-> by uncle Frank). For those that didn't have Xcopy, Sandy Trevor (a
-> color computer enthusiast, who coincidentally is a CompuServe V.P.)
-> wrote a little RS BASIC program that makes an RS-DOS disk readable to
-> either RS-DOS or OS9. It's called DOSOR9.BAS. If there is a suitable
-> amount of interest, I will post it to the net (with Sandy's
-> permission).
->
I have been unable to transfer files from 0s9 to rsdos. I would
like to see the source for thes programs posted on the net.
-> The best I have seen in the overall is a package called Xcom9. It's
-> written in asm (lots of source) and is small (<6k), fast, and
-> reliable. It has xmodem protocol, as well as straigh ascii file
-> capture, etc. I use it all the time (and I do mean *all*). If you're
-> interested in transferring files to/from CompuServe, they have a
-> semi-proprietary protocol called the 'B' protocol. There's a package
-> called Smod8 (also PD) that uses 'B', which is far superior to Xmodem
-> when tossing stuff back and forth over Telenet or Tymnet. Oh... the
-> ASM source is for 6809/os9. The B protocol package is all in C.
->
->
Where can I get the source other than compuserve? Can it be posted
on the net?
