Does anybody know of a good method of transferring files from a PC AT compatible to an Intel Personal Development System (iPDS running the ISIS operating system)? A communication program for the iPDS supporting XMODEM or Kermit or a disk conversion utility running on either machine ought to do the trick. Specifically, I want to run MCS-51 program development software on the AT, then download the object file (binary, not printable) to the iPDS so I can use the emv51a emulation vehicle. File transfer in both directions would be nice, but I am primarily interested in transferring binary files from the AT to the iPDS. Thanks in advance. -John W. Spalding spalding@p.cs.uiuc.edu

Sources for zmodem and kermit are available. Perhaps you could port one of those. -- bill davidsen (wedu@ge-crd.arpa) {uunet | philabs | seismo}!steinmetz!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me

I sent a reply to the originator via e-mail, but it must have ended up in the BB somewhere, so I'll try it publicly. There is a Kermit version for Intel Devel. Systems in the Columbia Univ. distribution tape. We took that version and enhanced it somewhat and re-submitted it for later distribution. If you want the source, contact me and I will e-mail it to you. Or i might be able to send it on a PDS floppy. BTW, this version of Kermit works on Series III and IV Devel. Systems also. =#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=# Dick Gardner -- Eastman Kodak Co.
