[comp.os.cpm] Zmp and Qterm

Charles.Cotham@urchin.fidonet.org (Charles Cotham) (10/26/90)

Has anyone gotten Zmp or Qterm running on an Osborne 1? I haven't been 
able to find overlays for either one for the Osborne 1. Any help would 
be appreciated.
 
                   Thanks,

I wrote ZMP V1.5 and MEX V1.14 modem programm overlays for the 
OSBORNE 1. Both supported most of the needed functions - baud 
rate switch, bits, modem init, break, disconnect, etc. The MEX 
overlay also emulate an VT100 (ANSI) terminal.
If you work with an 2400 baud modem my hardware extention would 
be useful for you. This extention use the OSBORNE 1 modem port to 
generate an real RS - 232 C interface. So you can send an break 
and disconnect to the modem . The overlays works with the 
extention and allow to switch between three (four) baud rates 
-300,600,1200,2400-.
If you are interested in the overlays or in the schematics please 
contact me.
