My friend Fran is rewriting his BBS to take advantage of some more memory he bought for his Commodore-64. He and I are looking for some modem I/O routines to replace the ones he wrote in BASIC. Ideally, these routines should perform I/O at the User Port and/or the RS232 port. I've sent off to the KERMSERV at CUVMA.Bitnet for the C64 Kermit sources, written in 6502. I'm hoping that some of you net.people can point me at something better. Thanks for your consideration!

I wrote a little program called "Xmoterm" awhile back, as a demo of Sizing CRC Xmodem. One of the conditional assemblies of the source is to add a terminal program into it. The whole mess is driven by a 40-line BASIC program. That would probably be a bit more useful than the Kermit sources, which are about 160K of code in a strange assembly language. I uploaded the whole mess awhile back to Q-Link, including the source code in Merlin assembler. If you can't get it there.... well.... I won't PROMISE to mail you a copy (via U.S. Snail, not netmail), because I have a bad habit of losing things here in The Computer Clutter, including requests for mailouts. But I can give'er a try... I might also try digging up an article I wrote for an old issue of the ACCC newsletter about how to access BASIC variables from ML. That way your friend can do i/o a whole line at a time, which is much faster. I'm sure it's on one of these disks, somewhere :-). Call me back in a few years, I have disks coming out of my ears, out of my nose, out of my anterior orifices... yes, my friend, that's the dance this year, let's all get together and dance the FLOPPY DISK SHUFFLE! -- Eric Lee Green elg@usl.CSNET Asimov Cocktail,n., A verbal bomb {cbosgd,ihnp4}!killer!elg detonated by the mention of any Snail Mail P.O.
